CHICAGO, June 25. I'routh ihimafcro to

declared irreparable for at least a quarter
ot a crop. An expert for one of the leading
1. tins here liinue th9 assertion in a teie
Kiani from llillsboro, N. 1). Pessimistic
reports from lnvestigaiors for other promi
nent houses Joined 111 causing unusually
active iiuying lor a Saturday session. In
consequence tho closu was shook at prac

I'niike the Injury to winter wheat In
Kansas the deterioration in the northwest
was alleged to be of a character from
which In the nature of things recovery to
u laiK extent was not merely improbable,
but Impossible.
Purchuses Dy one local trader alone ag
gregate. l,OU0,0U0 bushels. An authority at
J'uluth went on record with an opinion that
the estimated 25 per cent .'rrepurable dam
age in the i'ukoias and Minnesota would
unquestionably be added to by uny contin
uation of hot dry weather.
Reports of rains led to weakness at sev
eral Maizes during the day, especially at
vthe start, but did not count permanently
us against an Idea that the total precipita
tion for the week hud not covered more
than a fourth of the spring wheat acreage
tjils side of the Canadian line. September
ranged between Hic ana Kti-Nc, closing Wo)

September corn varied from 60c to 6114c
and closed at net gain at tile. The cash
market was steady; No. 2 yellow closed at

September onts fluctuated from 3Sc to
Xc and in the end were a shade higher at
VS'fi 3S-V.O, held buck by profit taking.
Fairly liberal shipments of lard, the
grain strength nnd scarcity of speculative
offerings made hog products firm. The net
advance, however, was Insignificant.

June finishes the first half of the present

are concerned. Looking out beyond this
period July promises to be a very Im

terest and dividend payments by corpora
tions. The dividend payments will exceed
187,114,000 and interest 1144.671,000. This 1
a big increase over July of last year and
shows a healthy business condition of the
market. Industrial and miscellaneous cor

railroads lead in Interest disbursements.
They will pay out $88,734,000. Industrial and

.Morgan la Not Talking.
An utterance mode this week by Thomas
F. Ryan, wno Is now enroute for Europe,
insular as it shows the vast financial
power of J. P. Morgan, says that
it will require the combined genius
of seven ot the most brilliant business
minds In the world to handle the affairs of
Mr. Moraan in case the Napoleon should
suddenly lace a condition compelling him to
relinquish active control of his present
enterprises. Mr. Morgan arrived this week
from Europe, but aside from his declara
tion that he would reappoint three trustees
to administer the affairs of the Equitable
Life Assurance society, he had nothing
to say.
Weather conditions In the northwest have
given rise to some trepidation, but rains
have now been reported through Minne
sota and the Dnkotas, which Is a very
good thing for the crops. The protracted
drouth promised for a time to be disastrous.
The advent of easy money in London at
this time of the year is always more or
leas of an Influence upon the American
money market. What effect It will have
upon the present occasion Is more or less
problematical. Bankers here mar avail
themselves of the opportunity to borrow
money abroad at cheap rates. There Is
no Immediate demand for money, although
a bull movement may he started for per
sonal advantage. If this Is done there Is
no doubt that tho monetary situation here
this fall would feel It. A firmer tone is
asserting itself In the call money market
and by July 1 business will be done to a
much higher rate.
Condition of IlnnKa.
During the present week New York banks
gained $2,433,000 cash on the regular cur
rency operations. From the Interior there
was. a net gain on balance of $:t,4u2,OiiO, but
this was partly offset by a loss on opera
tions with the government subtreasury of
$1,029,000. From Interior Institutions $0,652,
000 currency was received this week and
$3,190,000 was shipped into the interior.
An Important incident In the railroad
field was the action of the directors of the
Minneapolis & St. Louis in deciding to
pay the semi-annual dividends of 24 per
cent on the preierrea stock, wnicn was
bavable In July. This dividend has been
in force ever since 1900. For the last thi-ee
years It has partially been paid out of the
surplus. v
While It Is not known that copper pro
ducers have' taken concerted action to cur-
tall the output, nevertheless a number of
Important mines In the west are not work
ing up to their capacity. The Anaconda
Conner company Is leading: it is In a post
tlon to turn oat much more copper than It
Is at present. The general copper situa
tlon remains unchanged with no improve
ment In sight for the next few weeks.
Steel Stock Dividend.
At the meeting of the circctors of the
United States steel corporation next month
it is unlikely that there will bo any change
In the rate of 14 quarterly dividend on the
common stock. The balance available for
dividends this year Is estimated at 27.2 of
the preferred stock. The Bteel Industry has
revived to such an extent that there Is
talk of an extra disbursement upon the
preferred stock of the trust.
Southern Iron operators are showing more
confidence. A number of export orders
have been filled In the Birmingham dis
trict with the Tennessee Coal & Iron Co.
Taking forty-one Important railroads of
the east, west and south. It is estimated
the surplus for dividends in the present
fiscal year will bo $189,000,000 against the
present requirements of $179,000,000. Both
the gross and net earnings of the railroads
In general show healthy Increases. With
allowances made for high wages, labor
troubles and had weather this year ought
to be tho best since 1906 for the majority
of the railroads.
In the bond market principal Interest is
attached to the sale of $10,000,000 St. Louis.
San Francisco, New Orleans, Texas and
Mexican division bonds In the French mar
ket. Other negotiations abroad are pend

HOciS Light and light mixed grades sold
at puces p. city close 10 a nlcnel higher
In both divisions this morning, but heavy
hogs were neglected and had to move at
quotably steady figures, the market clos
ing weak on all classes of stock.
Receipts were light as compared with
early runs this week and quality ranged
from rough and extra heavies to smooth
lights, the latter kind of hogs Belling at or
near the top of the list. Both packers and
shippers bought freely und movement was
fairly active until lute rounds, when the
market developed an easier tone.
Heavy hogs commanded $9.10(0)9.15, with
extreme heavies as low us $9.03. Mixed
lots went around $9.20-(jD.30, according to
quality, and lights ranged from $3.30fi9.4O,
which was the highest price paid. A htrgo
share of receipets chanced hands at $9.15
9.35.
The week In the hog yards has been one
of heavy receipts nnd widening prices.
Lighte hogs are closing Just about steady
with a week ago, while heavies are fully
a dime lower. Demand has been broad nnd
active on most days and, while shippers
have not bought very freely, practically
everything haR sold on the day of arrival.

SHEER There wa$ nothing on sale today
In the way 01 sneep or lamos ana uie mar
ket remained nominally steady.
In most rtsnects the trade lately has been
much the same as it was last week. De
mand has been very dull from the opening,
killers' orders seasonably small and the
trend of prices lower. Receipts have been
liberal, the bulk consisting of range sheep
and quality on an average has been none
too good.
Trade has been uneven, of course, and
any iosttive decline Is hardly quotable.
In a aeneral way. ewes, wethers and year
lings are selling about 25&50C lower than at
last week's close, really good grass weth
ers moving around 84.65. Not many year
lings have been coming, but something
strictly choice that would 'break" well
would probably command 15.75 or better.
Thi proportion of spring lambs has been
relatively small, but eastern markets have
been getting moie springers than they
could conveniently handle and local trade
has suffered sec rdlngiy. frices are all of
25trra)o lower thar a week ago and Inquiry
is decidedly backward al tills decline.
r--,'r tinde ' bee-Inning to show more
activity and ofteilugs that ara aultuble
for feedlot Snd pasture are selling on much
the same basis as fair quality killing stock.

QUESTION OF FREIGHT KATES
Spirited Controversy Between Boads
and Shippers.
PROBLEM HARD TO
SOLVE
Traffic, Maaaaere folnt to lacrcaseii
LKIuaT Kapenaes as an Id
case for Increase of
Tariffs.
BY rrtESTON C. .ADAM9
NEW YORK, June 25. (Special Dlspnteh
to The Bee.) IVi-haps the biggest business
question to be settled In the near future
is the controversy between railroad ami
snippers as to wiint constitute lair freight
rates, the settlement of which hns been
temporarily postponed by president Tall.
When the Interstate Commerce commission
takes up this question, whicn ll probably
will be III shape to do within a few iiiontns,
ll Is going to find It about as tough a plop
osltlon as any aggregation of geiuleiiieu
ever tackled.
Railroad men point to the fact that their
expenses have very greatly Increased nnd
they have a jM-rfeet right to Increase their
Income to cover this loss. Shippers aln-xo
that the railroads are making money at
present rates and should not be permitted
to advance rates. So thero you are.
In this connection some interesting fig
ures recently have been published.
According to the Chronicle forty-eight
railroads report gross earnings fur May of
60,43;i,i76, an increase of $n2,I7l. or lii. 98
per cent, as computed with the correspond
ing period a year ago. While the returns
of lullroad gross earnings are not con
clusive as to the proseruy of the trade,
and business of the country, they Indiento
great activity. Even as to the roads them
selves the contin.itd growth ill their gross
revenue is an extremely gratifying leatuic,
showing as It does that new Income is Tutu
lug In to offset, in part at least, the great
use In expenses.
Then H. ii. imrjunder of Raltlmore, lit
an article for the current number of the
Annuls of the American Academy of Po
litical mid Social Science, shows that If
the values of the various "rights" which,
have been given to stockholders
of a selected nst of leading railroad
and Industrial c jrponitlnns be takuu
into consideration, tney have received a
net return on their Investments of from 6
to 33 per cent, after allowing 5 per cent In
terest on the original cost of such rights.
In only two Instances of tiie large corpora
tions which have issued "rights" tu their
stockholders nave tho tesults been unprof
itable to the latter. The shareholders ot
the Cleveland, Cincinnati, Chicago 4k St,
LmiiH, or the Rig Four railway, have sus
tained an actual loss of about 8.4 per cent
per milium by tuklng advantage of the
stock allotment niaiiu to tuem In 1905. whilo
Missouri Pacific shareholders have received
only aoout three-eights of 1 per cent per
annum on their investment These are ex
ceptional Instances.
The most remarkable examples of the
value of tho stock allotments and other
"rights" usually termed "melons" was re
ceived by tiie owners of various corpora
tions In the Oreat Northern railwuy. Mr.
luigunder shows thut upon stock bought
In 1893, the day before the first distribution
of rights by this company was mude, and
If succeeding allotments had been taken
up and paid for with money borrowed at
5 per cent Interest, the net income on the
original cost would now be 33.113 per cent
per annum. Another striking Instance Is
the Canadian Pacilfo railway, whose share
holders on a first Investment of 1901 hate
received an annual net return of 25.03 per
cut. The United Uuu Improvement coin
panels the most prominent among indus
trial corporations for tnls sort of extra
distribution, und the net return on ait
original investment In 1890, just before tne
first rights were Issued, Is now 19.665 per
cent per annum. All this Is after allowing
interest at thu rate of 5 per cent for tno
cost of the various allotments to date.
Some Interesting facts about passenger
traffic have been compiled by the railroads
in connection with the general advance in
passenger rates. These show thut passen
ger tratiiu last year involved 23 per cent
ui revenue of ull railroads.
Requires 40,02o cars, increase of 87 per
cent in ten years.
Number of passenger miles increases 153
per cent in ten years.
Revenue per pusseiiger mile decreases 11!
per cent In same period.
Passengers are given faster trains, more
expensivo cars, block signals, belter tracks
and beiier facilities.
At pretent rate per passenger mile, net
revenue is not suificltnt to pay interest
on cost of equipment and facilities, omitting
truck and general expense.
Under 2-cent fare laws, passenger re
ceipts .wero less in 1909 than in 190i; whila
service performed Is 6 per cent greater.
Much passenger business wus conducted
at less than cost.
It is easy to see that the members of the
Interstate Commerce commissions are going
to earn their salary and to come in for their
full share of cursing in tho near future.
