CHICAGO GRAI AND PROVISIONS
Featnrea. Of tho Tradlnaj and Closing
Prices on Board At Trade.
CHICAGO. July 21 Firm cables and ad
ditional reports of damage to tho growing
crop In the northwest-caused strength In
the: local wheat , market today, the Srp
tsmher. delivery closing at a gain of H(f
Sc Com and oats were each up Vic Pro
visions were down UH" to l7V4c.
The wheat market displayed the great
est strength fit the day soon after the
opej-.tng, when prices advanced approxi
mately lq above the previous close. Bhorts
snd commission houses were eager bidders
si ' the outset and offerings for a time
were meager. ..The chlff reason for the
sharp Htptum were the strength of foreign
markets and a hot. wave throughout the
spring wheat country. wMch revived old
rumors of the wheat crop In the Dakotas
deteriorating on account of drouth. To
ward the end of the first hour offering
In the pit became more liberal, which re
sulted In a reaction from the top. Trade
during the last half .of the sesilon was
rather quiet, hut sentiment continued bull
lh Large primary receipts, however,
tended to check any further advance. The
maiket closed firm. September opened
He to Ke higher at 91-ic to 91Sc advanced
to 9r ami closed at .tiOtAttfec. Clearance
of wheat anil flour were equal to 139.DIIO
hi. Kxports for the week as shown bv
Kraditrerts were equal to 2.ViO,0o0 bu. Pri
mary receipts were 1.091.000 bu., compared
with 773.0110 bu.,' the corresponding day one
vesr ago. Minneapolis. Lmluth and Chi
cs,.! reported receipts of 43 car against
8rt' ca: last week and 5f7 cars a year ano.
The corn market showed decided strength
earlv In the session along with wheat and
oais and also because or a Id. advance at
Liverpool. Owing to the continued small
movement and the limited amount of con
tract supplies In store here shorts wore
active bidders for the Soptsmber delivery,
which resulted In forcing the price of that
option tin to 77c, the high point for the
sesfon Later the market eased off some
nhiit because of the continuance of Ideal
. weather condition for the new crop. The
i loe was steadv. September opened He to
Ho higher at 76'ic to ".c, advanced to 77c
and closed at TtfV". Local receipts were
117 cars, with 1 cars nf contract grade.
Oats were strong early In the day owing
to an active general demand coupled with
very light offering. The Reptember de
livery was especially strong and advanced
1c above yesterday's final figures. Nearly
sll the gain was lost later In the day on
liberal realising by local holder. The
close. however, was firm. September
opened VnVtc to iic higher at 4Mtc to
4.Vic. sold up to 4vr and then declined to
4:Mfr4&-V'. The close was at 430 45! ic.
I.ixmI receipts were 101 cars.
Provisions were weak, all clay, because
of general profit taking by both local and

NEW YORK STOCKS AND BONDS
Liquidation on Large Scale Breaks
Prices Badly.
NET LOSS ONE TO THREE POINTS
Order to Press Motion for Retrial ot
Standard Oil Cases Motive tor
Mnrh at the Sell
lag.
NEW YORK, July 24-8pecuiatlve liqui
dation on a large scale oroke prices ot
slocks badly today. The fall was gradual
a.icl restrained In the early stages, out be
came more pieclpltate as It progressed,
uncovering tiup-loas orders. Knowledge ut
the existence of such orders emooldna the
professional operator to make short sales
and to oiler concessions in prices in mak
ing thesa sales, thus forcing declines. Spec
ulative liquidation and siiort sellings have
been In evidence before this week, but they
were overcome by the force of the buying
demand. It was In this respect that tilt
market showed a notable change today, the
buying orders, except at pikes below the
opening level, showing a material shrink
age. The order from President Roosevelt to
push a retrial of the Standard Oil case
was a professed motive for much of the
selling, especially amongst thosu who had
bought stocks largely on the ground of tin;
decision In favor of the Standard Oil com
pany. The buying demand prompted by
that derision was led by realising sales
yesterday and tne day before by those who
had bought stocks at a lower level. The
digestion of profits In that way la sup
posed to have been very large, and to rep
resent, moreover, the passing of stocks
from the hands of the powerful groups
whlclt have fostered the advance Into those
of scattered holders, much less wealthy and
much less skillful and practiced In the
conduct of speculative operations and man
ipulation. There was developed an element
in the speculation whereby dealings had
been largely reduced at a handsome profit,
and which was made Indifferent to further
maintenance or advance of prices and will
ing to see a substantial relief and an op
portunity to get back stocks at an advan
tage. That such technical considerations
Were largely responsible for the turn In
the price movement there can be no doubt.
The extent and duration of the advance
which had already occurred emphasized
this condition. The nature of the reports
put In circulation to sustain the upward
movement has pointed to the excess Into
which It was running. Yesterday s reports,
for Instance, that the Vnlted States Steel
subsidiary officials were meeting here to
concert measure for starting up the full
capacity of the plants waa met by the for
mal statement of President Corey that the
present activity of the plants represents 96
per cent of Its capacity. There has been
active speculation, also, based on an as
sumption of the favorable outcome of liti
gation affecting various corporate Interests
In a way, such as the suits under the com
modities clause of the Hepburn act and
against fixing rales for gas. The Influ
ence of the success of the Standard Oil
appeal against the fines levied upon It was
seen In the Jump In prices of some of the
stocks affected most by this speculation,
and In which realizing sales. In conse
quence, have been unusually heavy. The
day's news offered little change In general
condition. The week's currency movement
Indicated another huge accession to the
cash holdings of the local banks, the sub
treasury operations and the movement on
balance from the Interior Indicating an In
crease of about $10,000,000 for the week. The
stock market was quiet In the latter part
of the day, but showed no effective recov
ery, the day's losses running quite gener
ally from one to three points.
There was a pronounced contraction In
the volume of the bond market and the
tone waa easy. Total sales, par value,
$3,020,000. imited States 2s, registered, de
cl'ned one-etgth on the bid price.

CATTI.K-Becelnll of esttle ihls morning
Were very light, only twenty-two cars being
reported, which was not enough to make
anything like a market. There was nothing
very good of any kind to excite Interest
among buyers. Still what few cattle there
were sold In about the same notches as
vesterdav.
For the week to aaie tne receipts imvo ,
been the largest for several weeks back,
footing up over 13,000 head. The big run,
however, was on Monday, the same as last
week, since which time the runs have been
small. Since the big break the first of the
week, brought about by the excessive re
ceipts, there has been a gradual firming
up In values, until at the close of the week
the market on western beeves and cow
stuff Is right around 25c higher than It
was on Monday, which means that the
market Is now a little better than It was
at the close of last week, possibly 10c
higher. , ,.
Stockers and feeders have been dull all
the week and the total volume of business
In that kind of cattle has been small. That
does not mean anything, however, more
than that it Is still too early to expect very
much business In the feeder line. The pres
ent price of oorn Is very high and would-be
buyers are waiting untll the future of the
market seems clearer than at present be
fore putting very much money into cattle
to feed.

HOOK A few of the Imost desirable hogs
sold earlv at prices that looked very nearly
sieedv, but tne demand for hogs on that
basis was very limited, buyers as a rule
being bearish In their views and not in
clined to ray yesterday's prices. The mar
ket was alow also in getting started and
It was late before the trade was fairly
under way and then prices were generally
wak to 5c lower than yesterday. Tin
movement was very slow, the market te ns
dull from start ti finish. The hogs sold
inrsel ' at 8 J6fi6 3o. while yesterday the
most of them brought 8.30iSi.?6.
SHEEP Receipts were small today, only
about eleven cars being reported1 In the
vards. Outside of a couple of cars they
were all rangers. With so few sheep In
sight an active market could hardly be
expected as there was not enough ot any
Xaraft ....
