There la still a large scat tered long Interest In It and In less than anomer weeK we will be In the midst of the regular September wheat liquidation. ThetB millions of long September held must be sold outright, or sold and Decem ber and May bought Instead. This will tend to give up a dragging market and In tensify any weakness coming from the tart next week of the spring wheat move ment.

Posslblllt lea of Inter. ference by rain wuh harvesting was the Indirect cause of a firm market for wheat here. A sharp upturn at Minneapolis was Immediately resoonslhle fur s net ain of V'Jc ln the September option. Pep- .lemoer corn nnisneci ,c up. Hats are a shade higher. Provisions netted gains of V to K'Vio. r.arly fnnlan advices favored the bull side of the wheat market, although later cables quoted prices lower. Traders were aeemlngiy In a waiting mood and business was light. September opened a shmle higher to a ahnde lower at fi-.c to s"&.c ami under a slight selling pressure went off to enSU'SiVtc. Offerings were of nn In different character and prices readily re sponded to an advance In the nrt liwestern mariiets. Mlnenpolls and South Dakota re ported rain with indications of a contin uance of ahowery conditions. Millers were Bald to have bought quantities of Septem ber wheat against sales of flour for future delivery. Iviral shorts became apprehen sive and their efforts to cover meeting with restricted offerings sent prices upward. September advanced to Rlc. Profit taking brought about a recession from the high point. The close was steady with Sep tember at So'ic Clearances of wheat und flour were equal to 2K2.0O0 bu. Primary re ceipts were tWI.imi) bu., against s24.m bu. a year ago. Minneapolis, Duluth and Chi cago reported rereiDts of 1!8 cars, against 2rtj cars last week and 12 cars a year ago. A good demand for export held corn rices steady at a small advance. Cash ouses were on the selling aide of the market and commission houses readily ab sorbed offerings. High temperatures In Kansas also exerted a sustaining Influence, Inducing some covering by shorts. Septem ber started to up at 63c and rxrent for an early dip of 627c showed a steady im provement. The close was at me man tilnt for the day with September at 63-SiC. Local receipts were 3ul cars with 140 curs of contract grade. Oats were dull and trading was inclined to drag. The strength In wheat saved prices from suffering a loss and eventually caused a shade of Improvement. Accep tances were liberal.

LEADING RAILWAY SHARES ARE HIGHER Qnylnar for London and Continental Aecoant Caaaea Increased Firm neaa In aloes 4. loae la Active. NEW YORK. Aug. 23-Tha Improved outlook for peace at Portsmouth was a potent factor In shaping the course of today's stock market. This same feeling was reflected In the foreign markets. The trading kept pace with the volume of the previous day, with a number of substantial Hdvances and a much wider distribution of business. Reading and the Fries were less conspicuous, their places being taken by a number of the higher grade railway and the industrial shares. Nevertheless Erie common and second preferred advanced to new higher records. Reading recovered to within a fraction of Its record price, but was latr Irregular. The I'nlted States Steel shares were ruore active and stronger tnan for some days. Pennsylvania led the active list In the early dealings, and Rnltlmore Ohio. Vnlon Pacific. Southern Pacific and St. Paul were prominent, the latter, however, losing some of Its earlier gain. There was quite a movement In the Gould group. Missouri Pacific advancing smartly, with marked gains In all the Colorado Southern Issues. In the general list t lie most noteworthv advances In cluded Ixmlsvllle Nashville, Atlantic Coast Line, Atchison, Ontario & Western, Rock T-ilnnd. Southern Railway, Smelting preferred and Sugar. The last hour was the dullest period of the dsv. Heavy realizing In the active list was largely responsible for the general declines, none of which, however, was very severe. 0eratnrs In the various pools aeemed to have expended their ammunition. and traders, as a class, were cuutious to the extent of carrying few over-night com mittments. In the last few minutes of trading there came a fresh outburst of speculation, which carried such stocks as Vnion Pacific. Missouri Pacific. Amalga mated Copper and the Steel shares to the day's best prices and drove the shorts to cover once more. London was reported to have bought a considerable amount of stocks tn this market on orders for her own account and for the continent. Local money conditions continue easy. The bulk of today's call loans were made below 2 per cent, while the rates show an active tendency, four months being offered at per cent as compared with 4 per cent on the previous dav. The financial Institutions with Important in terior correspondents are agreed that In spite of the probable increased crops the banks In tho west and southwest will this fall finance the crop movements to a greater extent than In recent years. There will nevertheless lie, heavy ' withdrawals of money now on deposit here by the banks of thoso sections. Ronds were steady. Total sales pas value, $4.1.30.000.

The receipts were about as heavy as last Wednesday and show a gain of about 123 cars over the same day last year. The general quality of the cattle was good. There was a fair run of native steers here, but the big end of the -receipts con sisted of westerns. In spile of the heavy runs of the last two days the market held up In good shape. Buyers were out early and were after supplies. There was a good Inquiry for cattle from all sources and there was considerable activity to the trade. On some of the poorer grades of western stuff buyers were a little bearish and were asking concessions, flood to choice westerns, however, ruled generully Bteady and they were picked up readily. Choice natives were In good demand and prices ruled stronger and In some cases an advance of a dime was noted, there being a ton at 8570. The cow and heifer trade had a better tone than any day this week and the she stuff was In better demand. There were very few corn feds on sale, western cattle making up almost the entire receipts. Choice cows were strong to a dime higher generally, but the poorer grades were only steady. Good bulla were about steady with yes terday's prices, as were veal calves and BtllKS. Stoekers and feeders were In very good demand and activity was the principal feature of the trade. Everyone seemed to have orders nnd with the good inquiry prlcea tended upward. On tho good, heavy cattle prices were fully a dime higher, whllo the light stuff and common grades were fully steady. Representative sales: BEEF STEERS. N'5. AV t-T. Ho. AT.

The most of the sheep were killers and the quality was fairly good. The market opened early and the stuff was picked up In good season. On fat sheep and lambs puckers were paying fully stendv prices, while feeder buyers paid 10c above yesterday's prices. What feeders there were In the barn were picked up quickly at the advance. Feeder buyers I have been waiting to till their orders for I the last ten duvs, but receipts have con sisted mostly of killers nnd they have had little chance to do any business. To rlay they pushed the killers some, taking oq stufT of the killer class.
