THE SPECULATIVE MARKETS. Wheat Takes a Sudden Drop From the Prices of Wednesday. HEAVY UNLOADING BY LONGS. Corn Advances Sharply in Spite of Be fforts to Keep the Price Down—0Oats Remain Steady. CHICAGO PRODUCE MARKET, CHICAGO, July 25, —[Special Telegram to the Be k. |—A load of long wheat was dumped on the market this morning, local operators who have been working the bull side sua- denly showing weariness of spirit and in- clination to “ily the track.” Cables quoted the weather on the continent and in the United Kingdom as warm and dry, and home'news was notof a distinctive bullish character. There has been a let-up to the flood of bad crop news from the northwest. A member of one of the houses with a tre- mendous northwestern clicntage sagely re- marked In this connection that inas- much as his correspondents were not saying much about wheat now he assumed that they would have a good deal for sale. If the crop was ruined or seriously imnpaired, he felt confident he would be nearing more about it. New winter wheat keeps coming forward d seaboard markets report a sub- sidence of Inquiry for foreign account, though the clearances continue to show up well. Free liquidation of wheat for local account carried the price of September down from 70)c at tho open- ing to 704e, October from 72%ec w0 e, and December from Thdc to 75e. The market was very weak and this decline of nearly 1c from yesterday’s closing range was accomplished in less than an hour’s time. The market recovered slowly after the break, but by the end of the session nearly the whole of the decline had been re- covered, and the net loss on the day ayeraged only {@dc. August closed at 60%e, Sep- tember at 70)gc, October at724@72%c, and December at 75%c. The market appears to ground with a fair degree of firmness on the public faith in the intrinsic value of wheat at about the current range of ptices, and raid- JAng attempts are not attended with a measure of success any more than sporadic efforts to run little bull movements. In brief, there are no sensational features to the market these days to warrant anticipations of un- usgal speculative cxciteuiont on either side, Corn was active and prices averaged 4@ egc higher. Speculative operations concen- ated largely In September and May de- liverles, September being the favorite month. The opening trades wero 37%¢c for Aucust, #53c for Septewmnber, 39c for October, and 4lc for December. ‘The market worked up XK@ S6c without effort and in face of stronz local opposition, “Old Huteh” and his following fightinz every step of the advance. August sailed up to $8i4o, September to Hte, Oeto- ber to #0lgc, and May to 41%c. During the last two hours of the session the market held steady and strong, but final quotations were 4 a concession from tho bept of the day, viz 383{c for Aucust, 80c for Hopmnhar. 893 @301gc for October, and 4lige for May. The volume of apuculnllou was large, and outside orders were numerous and generally to buy, Crop damage reports are again on the increase and scattered, thouxh local showers makes the field of news from the corn belt more or less streaked. A steady feeling prevailed in oats’ and fluctuations in lhfl ipurllllflvb market were ‘within a Xc ran, n the ecarly part of the dny prices sageed Inu‘lhllll\lh’ but the lost ground was recovered and the closing quo tlnnu were fully up to those of yesterday. There was just a fair trade, being mostly local and to” a larger extent in October and Mnr than usual. Provisions were agaln without special change. Inchort ribs and lard there was more or less doing in the way of transferring trades for August to later months, but even in these articles the new busl- ness transacted was unimportant. The outside ~public ~seemed to take no interest to speak of in the market, and with professional operators unusual indiffer- ence prevailed. Still the feeling was strong and for Iard and short ribs the closings were about the same as vesterday, or at $6.57}4 for Aug]nn lard, $7.95 for August short 1Ibn 4§@6.70 for September lard, $8.05 for an'ember short ribs, 86.72}4@6,75 tor Octo- ber lard, and 87.80 for October short ribs.

After the first hour liquidation seemed to be the general motive, ‘The bears were on topand the bulls were dis- heartened. Loulsville & Nashville was at- tacked without resistance and tell to 60%. Among the itemsof personal gossip of some futerest was one that Cammack, who is at Nowport, was short of coalers and grangers. Another one was that the New York Life Insurance company had been buying Dela- ware, Lackawana & Western, and the Van- derbilt stocks. For the first time in several weeks Cammack’s commission men admit doing a fair business One handled 2,500 shares yesterday at ¢, and two others bought over 5,000 shares Reading, Lake Shore and St. Paul for customers. Still operators were afraid of the September money market. 1t is probably true that London orders to sell were numerous yesterday, but arbitragers allege that the fact was owing to a hammer- Ing in forelgn markets by American opera- tors, A companson of London prices at 2 p. with our yesterdays closing shows J4 per cent advance on Missourl, Kansas & ‘Texas, % on St Paul, Union Pacitic and Erle, % on Lake Shore, 4 on New York Central, Louls- ville & Nashville and Reading.
