On the wheat altuatlon l)ennls of Chlrago
wired the George A. Adams drain company
a follows: "We have leen trading In Sep

78c up to Pic. flown to 83o, back to One and
down to TUfcc. 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. The export business reported ia
nui an aggravation as yet, and far from
the real thing. Nothing In my opinion
will correct the altuatlon but a basis tha
auniu 01 neavy export Bates.

r.arly fnnlan advices favored the bull
side of the wheat market, although later
cables quoted prices lower. Traders were

was light. September opened a shmle

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

flour were equal to 2K2.0O0 bu. Primary re

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

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. September opened un

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. United States bonds wvre
all unchanged on call.

CATTLE There was only a moderate
supply of cattle here today, about 191 loads
being on sale. 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:

SHEEP-
There
were
onr twenty
cars
of sheep here today.
not enough
tO meet
the requirements of
the trade
Buyers
wanted supplies and ns a result the market
was fairly active. 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.
