Jobbers, the merchants are sale in buying

days or two weeks.
The coftee market has been Irregular
and options slund 15 to 20 points higher
than they were a week ago. The price of
actum cuh e remains about the same.
Cheese remains unchanged In price,
though the demand Is exceedingly heavy,
both for Immediate consumption and fur
storage. It is thought hardly probable that
prices win be lower for some time.
Some Fruits Are Scarce.
A most notable feature of the grocery
trade Is the situation' In California canned
fruits. The Interest) In these goods has
been heightened by the fact that cherries
and pears are very scarce and peaches

CHICAGO, June M.-Officlal forecast for

day, resulting In a decidedly weak market.
At the close wheat for July delivery was

a loss of 4c Provisions are unchanged to
7yc lower.
Notwithstanding additional rain In the
northwest, sentiment In the wheat pit was
bearish the entire session. At the opening
the July option was a shade higher at Vu

Sunday holiday. New damage reports were
received, while on the other hand a
number of advices from Kansas and Ne
braska told of favorable yields. Later sell
Ing became general on an ofllclal prediction
oi bright weather tomorrow over the har
vest belt. As a result the market became
eitrernely weak. At the same time poor
demand for cash wheat In outside markets
hnd considerable effect on prices here. For
July the lowest point of the day was
reached at nc. The mnrket closed weak.
with July at Wc. September was off He at
84c. Clearances of wheat and flour were
eo.ua! to Piu.700 bushels. Primary receipts
were 1S9.0W bushels, comuared with .t-0
bushels a year ngo. Minneapolis, Duluth
and Chicago reported receipts of 143 cars.
against 159 cars last week and 276 cars a
year auo.
Sentiment In the corn Pit was bearish
partly In sympathy with the break in
wheat. but mainly as a result of a con
st.intly Increasing movement. The volume
of trading wm not large. The market
closed easv. July opened unchanged to Va0
lower at 63HW5314C. sold between twir .ic
and 53c and" closed at 53Sc. September
closed a shade lower at 6Zl4c. Local re
celnts were 602 cars, with 231 of contract
grade.
Weakness prevailed in tne oats margei.
In sympathy with other RTaln. July opened
unchnnced at R2'ic. sold off to 31 Mi -31
and closed at 31Te. lxx-al receipts were
cars.
Provisions were firm earlv as a result
of a sllsht advance In the price of live
hon-B T-Ater the market weakened alone
apt to withdraw their prices on cherries I with Brain. At the close September pork

and pears and either withdraw or ad
vance prices on some lines of peaches. As
It Is now, purchases are only courlrmed on
the condition that the assortment shall be
perfectly satisfactory to the calmer. Some
advances have been made by various pack
ers already, and this serves to show the
strong situation of the market. The east
Is buying seconds and water goods in Cali
fornia unite heavily because of the esll
mated light pack In the east. Spot Cali
fornia canned goods are moving freely and
the demand covers the entire line. Gallon
apples aie in a strong position and buyers
are finding It difficult to supply their
wants.
f There la no change to report In corn or
iiuiiuiiws. eiuifr eitui ur luiuice. i nw uo
nana is good in both line and the market
In corn is particularly healthy because of
tm: fact that the spot govds are consider
ably lower than the new pack can be
bought for.
While the trade In spot dried peaches and
apricots Is not heavy, the demand is all
that can be expected at this time of the
year. A heavier trade Is anticipated as
soon as the berries are out of the way
In the way of futures, the market is grad
ually hardening on dried peaches, most all
of the packers having advanced their origi
nal prices Uttrttc on new peaches. New
I tirunes are being heia at oricea liiiaiw
kiiova the prices ruling some time ago on
uie old stock. The latter are now neia at
en advance of wnc over low prices. The
l.Viicot market also shows a little advance
oh futures, but the traders do not antici
pate a material advance, as the. supply Is
thought to be amnio for all requirements.
Evaporated raspberries are practically out
Of the market.
Fancy Goods Active.
Steadiness has characterised the fish mar
ket for the week. Mackerel and family
white llsh are still enjoying an excellent
demand for the time of year. Although
an advance has been looked for In the
whltellsh, owing to the fact that the catch
this year la much smaller than for some
time, yet the price remains unchanged.
The market la very strong, though, on
the present heavy demand. Omaha stocks
of Holland herrlnsr are getting very low
There has been an Increased demand for
fancy summer goods, with olives, sardines
and canned meats leading. The proximity
of the Fourth of July, when there are
many picnics, Is responsible for the extra
big trade In these lines. All fancy goods are
s.Jllii far ahead of last year In volume.
The holders of rice stocks have not ad
vanced the price, contrary to the fears of
the Jobbers. However, they are expecting
a change at any time.
A fairly good demand make a firm
market In outs. Syrups are unchanged,
with a verv slow demand.
The sale of woodenware is good, with
Drlcea steady and no change In sight.
Deans continue strong at high figures on
the short crop In Michigan. The old stock
It getting low and this year's output seems
In a fair way to be a small one.

NEW YORK, STOCKS AND BONDS
Lull in Activity of Operations for an
Advancs in Prices.
CLOUDS ON EUROPEAN POLITICAL HORIZON
Probability of Developments Over
Sunday MnUes Traders t ant Ions
French Rentes and British
Consols Off.
NEW YORK, June 24.-There waa a lull
today In the activity in the operations for
an advance In prices of stocks which have
been carried on through the week, and the
two hours' session of the Stdck exchange
was rather quiet. A disposition was shown
to reduce commitments In the market in
view of the Sunday Interval and the possi
bility of unexpected developments during
the suspension of business. The clouds on
the Kuropean political horlion accentuated
this tendency. A further sharp break In
French rentes and the further running off
of the sterling rute at Paris were testi
mony to the acuteness of the anxiety over
the relations between France and Germany.
British consols were affected In less degree.
Hoth of thesu government securities rallied
before the close of the markets In London
and Purls, but there was free selling here
lor foreign account and the possibility of
unfavorable developments before Monday
was canvassed.
The wheat and cotton markets showed a
yielding tendency and prospects of clearing
and warmer weather In the wheat belt
were regarded with satisfaction, but the
commodities markets were also affected by
speculative realising Incident to the closing
of the week. The bank statement revealed
a replenishment of surplus much larger
than was anticipated, the Increase In cash
averages reaching Jtf.512,200. At the sumo
time a IlOoO.OUO loan contraction operated to
relieve the reserve requirement In propor
tion. The net result was to more than
double the surplus, bringing It up to $16,-
"-i,oii. xne growing ease or the money
market during the week was thus ex
plained. The favorable bank statement,
however, was taken advantage of to pur
sue the prevailing disposition to realize and
prices went off after a partial recovery,
closing easy and at about the lowest all
around.
Total sales of bonds, par value, $1,467,000.

LONDON, June 24. Money was In fair
supply and In (rood demand In the market
today. Discounts were steady. Brokers
were cautious In view of the approach of
the month-end and the present unrest.
Business on the Stock exchange was dull
and operators were nervous about the
Moroccan situation. Consols were flat,
which depressed kindred securities. Home
rails were lower. Americans opened hesi
tating at parity. The variations were mixed.
Many stocks receded on New lork selling
ana prices closed easy. f oreigners were
conservative pending continental advices.
Japanese were dull, owing to a report that
the authorities at Toklo hnd refused to
agree to an armistice. Imperial Japanese
government 6s of 19'M were quoted at 103.
PARIS. June 24. Operators on the bourse
today, while showing uneasiness over the
Moroccan situation, were calmer than on
previous days. There were considerable of
fers of rentes, which were quickly ab
sorbed, thus preventing a marked decline.
Russians were active on tho rumor that
an armistice was being arranged, Rente
closed heavy. Russian Imperial 4s were
quoted at 89.20 and Russian bonds of 1904 at
602.
BERLIN. June 24. There was a better
tone than expected on the bourse today In
view of the pronounced weakness on tho
Paris bourse yesterday. Business here was
light, but prices were pretty wen main
tained.

Totals
CAT TL.E There were no fresn arrivals
li4)ie today and, as usual on Saturday, no
market. The steady decline of the lust
ten days was checked somewhat at this
point tne middle of this woek, wtieti, owing
to the sharp break In prices the llrst two
clays, receipts became lighter.
The market on the first two days of the
week In the face of liberal receipts dropped
about 2ndu85c, with trading slow and dull.
This decline had a tendency to check re
ceipts and for the rest of the week tiie
oflerings were moderate. With lighter re
ceipts the market took a turn for the bet
ter and showed some strength and activity
011 Wednesday and the remainder of the
week. A part of the decline was regained,
leaving the general market 15&20C lower for
the week. Cattle sold unevenly this woek,
some sales looking higher and some look
ing lower than tho decline noted above.
On the very best drylot steers some sales
were only about lo'ul6c lower, while, on
the other hand, grassy kinds looked u
nuarter lower.
The market on cows and heifers was in
about the same condition as the steers and
showed about the same decline. On the
rood kinds there was a fairly goud de
mand, especially toward the close of the
week, when receipts were light.
Bulls, veal calves and stags also show a
decline of Wie'Mc. although there was a
fair demand for anything good In this line.
The supply of stockers and feeders was
light this week, and, us usual at this time
of year, there was a light demand. These
kinds also show about the same loss as
do the steers, and trading is a little slow
HOGS There was a fairly good run here
for a Saturday, about 120 loads being on
sale. The quality of the hogs was very
good, aa has been the case ull the week.
Buyers were out early and there wus some
little uraen?v to the demand. Encouraging
reDorts from eastern points gave sellers
some advantage and there wus a bullish
tone to the trade. Lightweight hogs were
In the best demand all the week and this
morning the same conditions were In effect.
The general market was 2V(l6c higher thin
vAatonlv with tradlnkr active. The hoirs
were picked up quickly and a clearance was
made in good season. The bulk of the hogs
sold at $6.17Vii5l5.20, with tops reaching

Heavy Receipts Prevent Any Advance

Sen Wheat Contracts.
OMAHA, June 24, 1908.
Wheat was down today, under prospect!
of clear weather, July being Hie below
yesterday. Under the influence of ruin re
ports from Kansas har est held there wus
some trading early In the session at isc.
This was alter a weak o(ening and the
price quickly declined. July closed at M"c.
fepteiuber at M'.c and December at Mit
4c.
Corn was steady at yesterday's figures,
heavy receipts staving 01T any advance.
July closed ut 5:i-Sc, old July 111 63S,u6o,
Bepiciniier at o2o, old beplemiK-r ut o.-c,
December at 4;vVo und old December ut

Oais were down. In sympathy wun wneoi
and on lighter demnnd. juiy finished al
3Pc, September at 30!o and December at
31 i,e.
From toduv s Chicago Tribune: "Reports
of yields of winter wheat, actual nnd pros
pective, have been conlllctlng and contra,"
dieted to such an extent that it seems evi
dent some crop reports are using their
Imaginations rather than their eyes, ot
else the crop is unusually spotted. It U
probable that yields are varied even In th
same locality and that people looking for
good yields or lmil yieios nave pcen num
to llnd them. The condition Is one that
will mnko any accurate estimate of the
size of the crop unustMlly dllllcult."
At Liverpool wheat was steany una u
higher at the opening, owing to Jones' es
timate and outside buying. There was a
slight easiness at the end and tho close
was unchanged for July and Hd higher for
September. Corn opened d lower on the
forecast of larger American shipments
to Liverpool. Later, however, price!
steadied, owing to the nervousness of July
shorts and firmness of La Plata parcels.
July close d lower nnd September Hd
higher. , .
Kansas City cash handlers have with
drawn offers of wheat for shipments the
first half of July. This action was caused
by heavy rains In eastern and northern
Kansas Thursday night, delaying harvest
ing and doing some damago to the crop.
Australian wheat shipments for the week
were 240,000 bushels, the previous week
2M.0O0 bushels, and last year 2M.0O0 bushels.
The Nashville, 111., mills bought wheat yes
terdav nt St. Genevieve, Mo., weighing 1
pouncls, for 80c. This will cost them 84o
laid down at the mills. Receipts of wheat
at rrlmary points were 199.0H) bushels,
against 304.000 last year. Shipments from
Chicago were 293,000 bushels, against 124,000
bushels last year.

BOSTON', June 21. -WOOL The Commer
cial Bulletin says: Buying has been less ac
tive owing to lack of supplies and the pre
vious heavy purchasing by manufacturers.
However, a satisfactory volume of busi
ness has been transacted with prices still
maintained on their high basis. Foreign
wools are In good demand and some have
been reslilpped to England. Shearing In
Montana has been materially delayed by
neavy rains, wnne prices are sugniiy easier
there. Contracting for 1906 has been done
In Idaho. Fleece wools are demanding high
prices. The foreign markets are still very
strong with only light supplies. The na
tive English wools have advanced 3o. Tho
shlments of wool from Boston to dnte from
December 19, 19o4, according to the same
authority, are 119. 169,03(1 lbs., against 89,6119,
409 lbs. at the same time last year. The re
ceipts to date are itw.on.lM iris., against
121,067.371 lbs. for the same period last year.

SHEEP Thore were three cars of fairish
fed western wethers here today, but they
were not extra gooa anu Duyers were u .It
tla Indifferent on them. The Keneral mar.
ket could be best quoted as being Just
about steudy with yesterday. For the week
tne market snows up wen and is In a satis
factory condition. There was a good,
strong tone to the trading all the week and
a feeling that anything desirable would
bring stronger prices. The murket gener
ally was stronger for the week on all kinds
of sheep and I aiubs und trading was uctlve.
There were several louds of grass sheep
here during the week, which soTd very sat
isfactorily, although prices varied some
what according to the condition of th
sheep. There was a. good demand for
feeder sheep and prices on these kinds held
up well.
