Ciicaco, July 16.—[Special Telegram to nr Bee.|The great feature of the market to-day was the bullish foreign news. Cables came in strong from every impostant En- glish and coutinental market, and everybody had them direct or reflected. St. Louis opened %c up, New York 3¢, and Chicago B,@!%c, December showing the greatest strength at the beginning. Korcigners have been covering extensively in this and other American markets for a week, and they seem to be going the other way to a great ex- tent. Purchases for foreign account are becoming quite general, and for large lines in many instances. The alarm that is beginning to be felt abroad is not for the im- mediate present, but for the future. Thus it occurs that while an export demand of mod- erate proportions is taking some wheat out of the country day by day-—twenty loads being taken in New York to-day—the bulk of foreign buying is for later months. There was more export buying to-day than for weeks, However, weather abroad is stillunsettled and backward, and an advance in wheat in all positions 18 mnoted in the market cables, The deficiency in the French crop is being confirmed contin- ually and the crop outlook in Europe is worse than at any time. Incessant rains are threatening crops everywhere across the water, The domestic situation is not weak. The condition of the growing crop of spring ‘wheat has not improved, while the harvest- ing of winter wheat continues backward. A leading St. Louis commission house writes as follows of the situation there: “The total receipts of wheat in th market for this week were 225000 bushels. The same week last year the receipts were 960,000 bushels, This of course is uccounted for by the fact that the season is fully two weeks behind last year and wet ‘weather has also prevented the free move- ment of the erop. After a careful investiga- tion we find that the sack houses which lease sacks to send into the country to bring wheat into market have up to the present time far- nished less than one-half the number of sucks that they had furnished up to the same timo last year. We wlso ascertain from ail buyers and commis- sion houses who bring cash wheat into the market that they have not bought, up to the present time one-fifth of the amount of wheat to arrive that they had bought up to the same time last year, and this also extends into the purchase of wheat for August and September shipment, so that the outlook is that the movement of wheat will not come anywhere near the movement of last year, running up to the middle of September or the first of October.” first sales of August and Sep- tember in this market to-day were at 80c, December being quoted at S3¢. Aummt advanced to 80%o, September to {c and December to 83ige. Later, in sym- Duthy wpith Goem, tho marlot wotked'oft @ ¢, but recovered subscquently and ave faged steady at within ¢ of the top most of the session. Scalpers were playing fora strong reaction, but the buying was of a sub- stantial character and speculative offerings were readily absorbed. Hutchinson was a frec and open seller principally for Septem- ber, but his attack made no impression on the market except to check the advancing tendency to some extent. Corn opened steady at a small advance over Saturday, August selling at 47%e, Sep- iembal' at 475¢ and October at 46lc. ‘full sold up to i7}{u September to 4 October to 463c. The market then i 0 svem nd 4he DPrice of August went 1o 403{c, September to 463¢c ana October to 46}c. A moderate shipping inquiry is re- ported for domestic and foreign account but reccipts promise to be heavy—370 cars for to- morrow and the liquidation is still going on in the speculative market. The tone of the market, therefore, still continues hunv* though many of the most conservative houses on change are redicting an improvement in the state of rade. The closing range shows a small shrinkage on the day. The decrease in the visiblo supply of oats ‘was nearly a million bushels, But while the opening of this market was a trifie firmer, there was little or no strength worthy of note at any time, and the liberal decrease in the supply caused scarcely a ripple of inter- est, although it was slightly greater than ex- pected, and was offset by ear! l{l anticipated arrivals of a new crop, which will begin to come ferward lively in a few days. The recent cold weather exerted no appreciable ¢hange in values and trading soon_settled into a quiet and prnezimfi steady channel with fluctuations confines within narrow limits. July opened 3¢ higher than Saturday afternoon at 31c and soon sold off to about that day’s closing figures, with the next month selling about 3¢c either way from 25%{c and September at 255c early and off to 250 1nterest in futures was lagrgely in those two months, although there was some inquiry for selling May. In store lots were quiet around 1c for No. 2. Cash oats generally sold by sample. At the morning provision call sales were made of 575 bbls of pork, 1,000 tiercs of lard and 150,000 1bs of short ribs. The strength shown in the general product trade at the close of last week was more fully develoned. No great amount of activity was exhibited, et a fair business was transacted and a bull- h ten 'y characterized the movement. Higher prices were easily established, and, based on Suturday's closings, Imrk Tested at an appreciation of 2 ard of 10@ 12}gc wna short ribs of 121 CHICAGO E STOCK, @ @lae. Cuteaco, July 16.—|Special Telegram to Tne Bee |—Carrie—Trade was slow at the ovening and prices were 10@15¢ lower on all grades of fat cattle with no exception.

New York, July 16.—[Special ‘lele- gram toTne Bek.)--Srocks—Although there are more bulls in Wall street than a week ago & good many who got in when prices ‘were at the bottomn early in June have taken their profits and are waiting for a reaction to set in again. The impression prevails in many places that the market has had its ad- vance, which on an average has been about a8 great as all the former movements in years past. St. Paul has advanced 10 points, which the bears claim is as much as the sit- uation warrants. It was asserted by parties - claiming inside information that St. Paul lost $1,100,000 net in the first three months of this year, and for six months will aggregate $2,000,000. There was free realizing in this stock but the price only dropped % and then ralliecd %. The opening was active, but most of the list was unchanged from Satur- day's figures, Early trading was feverish and somewhat irregular, though the general tendency at first was upward and advances in some stocks were made ranging up to X ver cent, Rock Istand and Missouri Pacific showing most strength. The improving tendency soon disappeared, however, and the list retired holow opening figures, though net losses were confined to small fractions except in Burlington, which displayed a marked weakness and declined 1% per cent. There was less activity toward 11 o'clock and the market was generally weak at about the lowest prices. About noon the market be- came ireegular and Oregon improvement ad- vanced )4 and Wheeling & Lake Erie 114, GoveryyeNTs—Government bonds were dull but steady. YESTERDAY'S QUOTATIONS.
