BOOKINGS TOR JULY ABE LIGHT Steel Isenee Deellae Despite Increase) la Earning and Other Stock De cline In Srmnathjr Tleavy Selllag by Profesaloaal. NEW YORK. July 31-The decline In prices today got Its prlcnlpal Inspirntlon from the quarterly report of the United States Steel corporation. The main factor In discouraging sentiment was the state ment given by one of the director that the amount of new business of the corpor ation for July had contracted 25 to 88 per cent from the new business of July. a shrinkage so considerable a to give occa sion for much thought on the extent to which the lowlng-up In general business might go. Thus It happened thet stocks turned weak on the appearance of the re port of the record quarterly earning of tho Steel corporation. The fact that thee earnings of the steel corporation would constitute a new record was definitely known for several days before the report was published, although the figure ex ceeded the most sanguine estimate. The rise In the volume of orders on hand on June 30 compared with the preceding quar ter was no greater than wa expected. Put these fact aprly to past conditions and failed to appeal to stock market arntiment. The fact dwelt on wa that the present condition In the steel trade represents a consiaeranie reaction with data Incklnir to define the ultimate limits of the reaction. From the purely speculative standpoint the view was adopted that the market which failed of stimulation from the recent announced Intention to advance the South ern Pacific dividend and from the United States Steel quarterly earnings was not In hopeful position for a rise. There was In consequence much professional selling of stocks. The copper stocks were even weaker than the Iron and steel stocUs, partly on account of the continued un- settlement In the market for the metal, which acored a further wldo decline In London today. A contributory cause to the weakness In the group was the feeling that the outcome of the Haywood trial might Involve some added difficulties for those companies In the Isbor department. An unfavorable crop report ' from a private expert wa a factor In the late weakness of the market. Sterling exchange moved away from tho gold export point today. The higher rates for call loans have Invited offerings of bankers' finance bills, which lowered the price of exchange. The pressure to sell stocks persisted throughout the session and the market closed weak at the lowest prices of the day. Bonds were Irregular. Total sales, par value. 81.066,000.

I'nder the influence of a good local de mand, combined with favorable advices from other selling points, the market on cornfed cattle was generally stronger to luc higher. While the supply of cattle of that kind was small, there were some good enough to bring $6.50. Oood rango cattle acre stronger, although the trade was not especially active on that kind. Cows and heifers sold anywhere frcm steady to 10c higher than yesterday and the trade was sufficiently active to effect a reasonably early clearance. Both stockers and feeders were In active demand this morning, with the market gen erally a little stronger. As hth as to. 15 was paid for good fleshy western feeders. Llrht stock cattle were In good demand and everything desirable along that lino sold stronger both yesterday and today. The sharp break of last week has ap parently Increased the demand. BEEF srEaKS.

There were five more cars of the same Wyoming wethers that sold at $5.20 yesterday. They brought $5.15 today, but were very wet, making the price prac tically the same for the two days. A few more Idaho yearlings, the same as brought $6 90 yesterday, sold up to $'.00 today, with the feeder end, on which there were a good many old wethers, at $5.20. as against $615 ycsterdlay. Taking the market as a whole It could hardly be quoted other than a good steady market, with a fair demand at cur rent price. Shiners will note that prevailing prices at this point are very good as compared wtth eastern matkets, due to the fact that the runs locally have been rather small. A noted yesterday and sevetal times tfore there Is too much of sameness of the re ceipts. 80 far this season very little else than old wethers have arrived at this point. Lambs and yearlings have been very scarce, not enough of the former arriving to really establish quotations. Quotations on killers.
