PVvS'MHe. NEW YORK. Aua. 6 The rrln mirV.li weakened today and the stock market rose again. Yesterday's daman renorta were so portentous and backed by so violent a rise in grain prices tnat the leaders of the stock pecuianoni were fairly Intimidated. At this critical period of the crops, sensational reports for speculative purposes are looked for and guarded against as far as possible. Their effect we resisted fairly well even yesterday. The measure of the relief foit oyer todsy's better news was unmistakably Mown, however, by the renewed activity i.u Birnam 01 me stock market tone. It is admitted In many quarters of the present participation In stock operations that a long look ahead Is being taken and nearer possibilities of unfavorable develop, menu are being Ignored on an assumption that they must prove but temporsry. The msln tendency toward betterment Is counted on In spite of occasional setbacks, but a curtailment In the crop yields such as would radically reduce the year's produc tion of wealth from that source Is not printed a factor that could be Ignored. There was no disguise of the satisfaction, therefore, with which today's news was re celved of abundant ralna In the Mississippi valley, where the corn crop Is reported to te most In need of moisture. Spring wheat continued the subject of discussion as to the probable deterioration. A sharp fall from the figure of the July government report Is counted upon In tomorrow's gov ernment report on the crop, opinion Inclin ing to some five points decline. The early market was not without considerable Irreg ularity from the remnant of the Influence of yesterday's crop scare. The advance gathered force unevenly and was hampered by some weak futures. Canadian Pacific was hurt tiv the extenalve strike of Its employes. The sympathetic erreet on subsidiary companies was aggra vated by the serious Illness of the executive head of some of these companies. London afforded no assistance to advance stocks, the weak return of the Bank of England weighing somewhat orj the market. The Bank of France, however, made a very strong return, thus nmmiiinr ...ti of Its drain on the lindnn onM .nni.. The growth of general internal Interest In ne stock market Is still small and the bulk ft inn uuyinr is aiirinuieo to th anlpulatlve sources for nm tin. ... he profit taklnr of tha rinsi h,, digested and wa followed by a recoverv to near the best.

The feeder trade all this' week has been good and the market Is right around XCglbc higher than last week. There was also a pretty fair demand for cowa and heifers, and they generally sold at steady prices, with some of the mors desirable killers a Utile higher than yes terday. Th most of the deslrabls killers chsnged hands early In the forenoon. There were only A few western steers that would do for beef. The feeling on that kind was about steady. Corn-feds were more numerous than on some day of late, but the demand wa extremely poor. A few bunches of cattle that have been for warded from this point to Chicago and aold for a good deal leas than was ' bid here for them, has apparently seared buy ers to such an extent that they are afraid to take hold of the corn-feds. The result waa that the trade on that kind was very elow and weak all the mori.lng, It being hard work for holdcra to Induce buyers to get down to business. The forenoon wore sway with very few cornfed selling and those that did aell looked 10(ffl5c lower. Tho cattle trade tor tne weeg to cats may be summed up as lirg-IBc lower on cornfed steers, with rsnge beeves steady. Cows and heifers are steady to a little m 1.4S.1 6o 477 1.H95 230 693 1.356 603 1,-S l.Ml SS 206 9-SJ 73 S3 110 70 118 38 16 92 3 488 36 I3 30 1 1 38 14 100 3.010 in 3.453 B.19J , 4JT ..l4 . . 144 , 11 ..fit .It .

Tilt morning Chlvasro w red ear v. sheep irxtiJio and lambs Vfi70c lower than last week. A report of that kind was not cllculated to Improve the condition of the trade at this point. On top of that was the further fact tht receipts at this point for the f.nir days foot up 31.500 head, as sgslrst 16.40) heed last week snd !6.oo head a year ago. Packers, having been free buyers early in the week, were very well tilled up snd not In need of much additional stuff todsy. It would he hard work to Imagine condi tions more unfavorable for the miking tf a good market than those noted sb v. Hence It was bv no meahs surprising tht the market here waa extremely flow end dull from start to finish, with prices : 11 lower than yesterday. Buyers, In faot, were so Indlfrerent thet it was hard work In some esses to get them to b'd on oil wethers which have Keen especlslly plen tiful this meek.
