The Northwestern Miller, out todav. savs: "The spring wheat crop condition was the Influencing factor In the flour and wheat markets this last week. With the sharp advance In wheat, due to the crop kill ers' report of great rust damage, buyers were frightened out of the market. Im porters across the Atlantic also were out of It until ultimate de lines brought millers' quotations more, into line with their Ideas of price. when thev took some fairly good lots from both Toledo and St. Louis mills, as well as scattering mills elsewhere In the winter w-lieat territory. The net result of the week was a small Improvement over pre vious weeks, with prospects good for satis factory business, providing crop conditions continue favorable. Better reports are coming In from mills In the Ohio valley and the millers there are well pleased with the quality of the new wheat. Kansas mills enjoyed good demand and sold some to Europe. The millers are watching the northwest crop." 4 Omaha Cash galea. WHEAT No. 2 hard. 1 car. 82c. CORN No. a, 1 car. 4sNc; No. S, 2 cars, 48c. OATS-No. I w hite, 2 cars. 27c RYE No. 3, 1 car. 54c.

J -Decreasing receipts of wheat southwen today offset the effect of excellent maturing weather northwest. The result was a fairly steady wheat market here For September the closing price to day whs precisely the same as the flra figures twenty-four hours previous Corn Is up lr. Oats show a gala of He 1 ro lsl'.ns are off 2yJl"C- Influenced by higher prices at Liverpool, the wheal market ojiened quite firm, the September option being up a shade to 4 Sc at M'S'fM'sc. The strength of the Eng lish market was due to retorted conflrhui tion of a shortage n the Russian crop. m moderate demand from commission houses the September delivery touihed sic soon after the opening Sentiment then became bearish and lit traders sold freely. As a result the early sdvance In prices tolay was not onlv obliterated, but the market sagged below yesterday s final figures. Sep tember dropping to MVc. Spread of bearish sentiment, however, was effectively checked by news from the southwest, where the movement of the new crop seemed begin ning to show signs of abatement. Arrivals todav at 8'. Iouls and Kansas Cltv aggre gated 339. "O bushels, against 478. bushels year ago. The price or casti wneai in the southwestern markets showed an ad vance today and this created demand lor options here. During the last half of the eeslon prices fluctuated within a narrotg twinge. The wheat market clwed steady, with September at MSMSP. Clearances of wheat and flour were equal to 58 ht bushels. Primary receipts were IWI.Oi iushe!s, com pared with Sui.(n bushels a year ago. Min neapolis. Duluth and Chicago reported re ceipts of 2 cars, agalr.st 3S4 cars last week and 1:26 cars a year ago. Sentiment in the corn pit was bullish the entire session. At the start the market was affected by a sharp advance In the price of corn at Liverpool. Later the mar ket was further strengthened by extremely small acceptances of bids sent out by cash houses. The market was actively supported by a number of prominent bulls Shorts ajso were liberal purchasers. Ideal weather for the crop apparently hai little effect on traders. Th market closed Arm, with prices practically at the highest point September oixned 'kTiSc higher at faT'ui4,c, sold up lo v,ic and closed at c. liccai receipts were pa cars, with 48 cars of contract grade. A firm tone prevailed 4n the oats mirket. The chief supporting Influence was strength of corn. Shorts and commission houses were moderate buyers. September opened unchanged at 2e. sold between 27c and 2Sv?:'sic and closed at 2foc. Local re ceipts were 222 cars Provisions were weak as a result or a lO&l.V decline in the price of live bogs The trading was very quiet. The market lacked any support from packers.

NEW YORK STOCKS AND BONDS Profeisional Vanipulators Eire Varkit ic ThcmseWfi All Day. COALERS AND SOUTHWESTERN STRONG Close la strong with Prleee Highest of the Session Foreign Mar kets Are Dull and Lower. NEW YORK, Aug. 3 -Professional ma nipulators hfid the market to themselves today and material to affect prices seemed to be scantv. Their ventures seemed to be restricted to a limited list of stocks and these were handled in groups likely to be subject to common Influence by reason of Identltv of large holdings of stock, similar trade Interests or common truffle Interests. Such group movements could be distin guished In the Coalers, the southern rail roads, the Canadian group (including Rapid Transit preferred 1 and the ore and metal Industries. Professed reasons for these movements were not offered In every esse and in some Instances the workings of or ganlxed people in the stocks were suffi ciently perceptible. Confidence In the anth racite trade outlook and the prospects for earnings of the coal carriers Is very gen eral. It was sought to convey the Impres sion also that the return to the financial district of J. P. Morgan, who appeared at his office todav after his return from Europe, might be fraught with consequences to Reading and the Erlea The same Im pression was made to do fluty as an ex planation of the strength of Southern rail way and Southwestern carried Into tne sphere of ihe southern railroads. This movement was the more remarked on ac count of the growth of obstacles to the traffic In southern territory by yellow fever quarantine and the further deterioration In the condition of the cotton crop shown by the government rejort of today. The firm ness of the I nlted States Steel stocks vif also attributed to the Morgan Influence, to gether with the continued favorable reports from that Industry. The closing of the Irfindon Stock sxcharure from Friday until Tuesday was given to explain the extreme dullness of that mar ket and the Insignificant business done here for that account. Weather news affecting the grain crops was regarded as good. Money was eaev, but the possible reduction of resources wiUiln the next few weeks comes in for consideration. Subtreasury operstlons show a balance against the banks thus far this week of over 13 FW. the payment of government Interest having showed no offset to the payment last Satur day of the Central Pacific note to the gov ernment. The second Installment of b per cent of the Japanese loan subscriptions was pavable todav. calling for only L-.&iXM-m. The privilege accrued, however, to pay the balance or subscription tooay. ruffled demesnor of the money market did not reveal any large requisitions for this purpose. The strength in special stocks did not awaken a comprehensive response at any time, but the strength of the day was In the final dealings and the closing was strong at the highest.

There w, re only a few west erns here, the receipts consisting mostly of good corn fed cattle. Reef streers constituted the big end of the receipts and there were souib pretty good cattle offered. Buyers picked up the stuff early, and while there was no excite ment to the trade, a clearance was made In good season, there being an active demand. Packers claimed last week that their cool ers were full and that the consumptive de mand for beef was light, so that they could not handle many cattle. This week with the lighter receipts they have taken hold In good shape. They picked up the stuff very readily today at prices generally Heady with yesterday. Some sales on the choice grades of corn feds looked a little stronger. There was only a light supply of cows and heifers here and the demand wis good and te stuff waa picked up early. The corn fed cattle sold nulckly at stronger prices Hnd some of the best kinds sold even better than this. There was consid erable activity to the trade, buyers aeem lng to want supplies. Bulls, veal calvt a and stags were In Just about the same condition as yesterday, with prices ruling steady. Stockers and feedrs were In demand and the light receipts were picked up In fair season at good steady prices and on some of the letter grades at stronger prices.

At this time of year when the western sheep are coming In there la always more or less sorting to do and salesmen are busy with this during the early hours of the morning and buyers do not care to trade till the stuff is all shaped up so they ran see Just what is on sale This mikes the morning market very slow and dull, but does not afT.-ct prices In the least. It being simply a case of getting the stuff ready to sell. There is a good detnsnd here for both sheep and lambs, and while the market today was slots- on the opening and very little stuff was Sold early prices were fully steady with yesterday. The feeder demand was also good, buyers having plenty of or ders to fill.
