THE SPECULATIVE MARKETS. ‘Wheat Trading Moderate in Spite of Bullish Influences. CORR RULES WEAK AND LOWER. Oats Dull and Declining—Provisions Take u Tumble—Onattle Business Stil in Bad Shape—Hogs Moderately Active. CHICAGO PRODUCE MARKET. CiicaGo, August 2.—[Special Telegram to Tur Bee.)—The wheat market did not hold its own to-day. News was bullish from nearly every standpoint, but general specu- lutive support was lacking, and values sottled back 3;@lc. The tenor of the foreign advices is still unfavorable on crops, but oc- casional mention is made of brightening weather. Weather cables, however, were conflicting, und brought both buying and selling orders, The opinion seemed to pre- vail after all the news was in from the other side that forcign markets have halted for the time being. One trader had u cable chron- feling an advance, but these particular ad- vancing cables have been received with reg- ularity for several weeks, and have ceased to have much cffect. They have coweto be looked upon as Nightengale's cables, which last summer quoted declin ing foreign markets daily for scveral months until the total shrinkage was found to amount to ¥1.84 per bushel. However, there can be no gainsaying the fact that the situation at home and abroad is very strong. For instance, the clearances of wheat and flour from Atlantic ports for the day were equivalent to 40,0 0 bushels, while receipts at all the primary warkets were not in excess of 500,000 bushels, Advices ce that shp- pers have a hard time getting cash wheat on limited orders. As high as SSigc has been bid in Duluth withen the last day or two, and 8% was bid to-day. Shipments from that point are heavy, and there is active inquiry for cash grain at every market in the country. Property 15 stifly held everywhere. The weakness is in the absence of gen- eral speculative inquiry and it is argued that there caunot be a serious ulnmkm(n in the value of wheat for future delivery so Jong as actual grain is so well thought of. The force of this position must be admitted There was evidence to-day of u concer effort on the part of the leading local o) tors to depress values by using fo houscs to sell through. Whether, as many insisted, the drive was made to get a good market to buy on is an undecided question. Certain it is that big traders were making a maximum amount of noise and doing a mini- mum amount of selling. _Septemnber wheat opened ut 8ilgc, sold off to 83l¢c, between which point and 88%c it fluctuated most of the day. Shortly after 12 o'clock the price got down to 833{@s3%c and the feeling was one of weakness. Good buying occurred, however, und the market ndvanced ¢, closing stubbornly strong at a 5 higher fusis than yostorday. During the last half hour several cived from Dukota announcing that the agricultural sec retary of that territory h educed his esti- mate of the whe: 1a from 15 to 20 per cont from estimate made July 1. This did not create particular excitement,as it was merely an of- ficial confirmution of private information which had been generally accepted as aceu- rate by the trade. During the scssion Octo- ber wheat ranged from 845 to 83%¢c and closed December opened at 8b3gc, sold up 4o several times, finally going .0, and closing at g The' volume of trade in the pit was less thun for the two days last preced: ing. Commission merchants,as a rule, aerce in the stavement that they have difficulty in keeping customers off the short side which the majority of advisers seem to regard as hazardous just now. For the country to be generally bearish is a rare circumstance, especially remarkable now when uation looks so strong to most of the rt market guessers.” However,the mar- as had a 5@0 advance, which' is con- siderable. The corn market wns weak and lower. The :J-oning was strong at l4(lgc above esterday’s closing range, viz: At 47c for ptemoer and 463{c for October. Septem- ber sold up to 4714 @473 and October to 467¢c. That proved to be the top. The bottom was 481¢c for September and 45)@45)c for Oc- tober, with year quoted at 8)ic, with May at 803¢c. The decline represents a shrinkage of 8 @lec. During the most of the session the greatest weakness was in deferred futures, the pressure upon year and May causing a noticeable heaviness. Reports from Kansas were that the weather there contin furnace hot, western Kansas suffering most, but as very ' little corn is produced in the western part of that state the news was not alarming. Receipts coutinue liberal but not excessive. Oats were dull and weak with a fractional decline noted in all futures, Receipts were moderate, and more than half iuspected as new oats, Buyers of cash discriminated ngainst these, which were at a discount. Old No. 2 oats in store were slow at about 281, @23}¢c. In the speculative market there was 10 support, with few buying orders, and while moderate favor was shown near futures, long mouths were neglected. August hovered around 24)cc and next month de- elined from 243c early, which was_slightly better than yesterday's close, to 24c, with #May dull at figures around 2sc Provisions experienced a “slump” that completely upset the calculations of the board and occasioned a general upheaval in the market. As the oficial snowing of the amount of lard on hand in this city was uni- versally discredited, business opencd in a nervous mauner. ' Operators acted as if tht‘?' were ‘at sea” and when tho first sales of lard showed adecline of B a stronger disposition was manifested in that article us well as in_short ribs and pork to realize. Pork and short ribs were for a brief time relatively stronger than lard, but they promptly sympathized with it, and on the break taat followed pork rather monopolized attention. In e last named article unusual excitement in fact was wituessed. For September delivery pork opened ut $14.80, sold_at 3145715, broke on e and 10¢ declines to $14.50, and then, under a pressure of offerings, dropped in wood-sized Jumps to §18. From this figure it sub- sequently rallied 521ge and finally closed 4210 better than the day's lowest point. While pork was making its decline of 42 ard and short ribs fell off 15c. Short ribs recovered afterwards a fraction of the round lost but on lard the feeling was quite cavy uud there was little or no improve- ment. Lard for September ranged from .95 down to §3.80 and short ribs ¥ 1 aown to §8.871¢. Based on yestorday's closings, the uctual decline in pork was 474 @5724e, in lard 20c and in short ribs 123 CHICAGO LAVE STOCK, CnicaGo, August 2.—|Special Telegram to Tue Bek |—Cartue—Trade was a shade more active than for a day or two past. The scarcity of good cattle aud the falling off of the supply of natives is beginning to tell and although gencrally prices were about tho samo s yesterday there were instances where good and useful natives sold for more money, but such sales were few and tar between, and cut no figure in the general trade. Texauns and common natives are down to the lowest prices of the season. Texaus are down to about as low prices as at any time last year, There were about 10,000 common nutive cows. Bulls are down to low water mark. 0ld canning cows are low as any lime lust year. Shippers should keep back such unless they expect low prices un- Ll after the run offTexuns is over. Stockers and feeders quict and steady. There is a Leavy run of veal calves. The ordinary run of course and common are down to about as low figures as at any time. The receipts in- 5,000 Texas cattle.

New Yonrk, August 2.—[Special ‘Telegram to Tnr Ber. ] —Stocks—Interest in the stock market centered in the Vanderbilts, New England and St. Paul. Trading dvring the morning was lighter, and up to noon only 03,435 shares changed hands. Efforts were made to boom Lake Shore, as there is a bob- tailed pool in it, and they wanted to get prices up to help the rest of the list. Parties who watch the market closely, again assert that the recent heavy purchases have been for the Vanderbilt family, and that the dividends will be increased, It is rather too soon,however, to talk about a larger dividend, as the meeting does mnot ocecur for several months, It is claimed by some that the basis for the dividend story was that a large quantity of wheat would soon pe moved from the west to the seaboard over the Vanderbilt roads and which would materially increass the earnings. This 18 rather a thin basis to buy stocks on, as the roads have mnot been able to get any wheat, as shippers are using the lake route. Boston parties who have been buy- ing on the market for several days withdrew their support, as they favored a reaction of 2 points. London was a seller, and the mar- ket for American securities there opened off and had rather & depress ing effect. At the opening first prices were generally (@7 per cent lower, though Reading and Lake Shore were kept up 1 ver cent. Further small fractions wero lost in early dealing, but the market soon rallied, and under the lead of New England quickly ad- vanced to above the opening. New England gained 3 per cent. Advances in the rest of the list, however, were insignifi- cant except a rise of 1 per cent in Orogon improvement, A feverish and generally heavy feeling developed and most of the active stocks dropped below the opening figures and the market be- came slow. The action of St. Paul again surprised its friends, who claim that there is less of stock afloat than is generally supposed, the low price inducing an unsuc- cessful absorption of it. The market was well filled with stocks during the last hour, and every attempt to bid up any particular stock brougnt out fresh blocks. Free selling caused an cusy feeling, and reactions were noted, except in Lake Shore, which re- mained fairly steady. Closing sales were on an ircegalar market, Lake Shore being up ¥ of a point, Canada Southern %, New England 3. The rest of the active list showed declines extending to 1 point, Reading hav- ing the lead. The total sales were 179,045 shares, including 22,5600 Lake Shore, 22,100 St. Paul, 15,800 New England, 12,400 North- western.

Crops in the Northwest. J. B. Werst, the crop expert, furnishes the following condensed statement of the obser- vations in the northwest concerning the crop outlook. This statement is dated July 80: The condition of growing crops during the past fortnight were about as here described. Spring wheat in eastern Dakota and south of Milbank to a line drawn even with northern Iowa, has a thin stand, just headed and badly rusted. In Mimwsoln, on the lines between Waterton and Milbank after leaving the Da- Kkota line and between that and St. Paul, the stand is good and ubout half the fields are headed, the other half hcmlhlf; about one half is promising, the other half injured by rust. These same conditions, two days later, give the character of the ficlds between St. Paul and Fargo. On the Minnesota side of the Red river valley from the North- ern Pacific t the boundary liue at St. Vincent, this crop, besides rust, was materially hurt by being drowned out, Here it is safe to say the crop will fall short of last year by fully 20 per cent. In the im- mediate Red river valley, on the Dakota side, from Wahpeton to Gra Forks, the promise is better than a year ago, while from Grand Forks north prospects are not as good. Then again, from Grand Forks east to nearly Devil's lake, und south from Larmore to within five miles of the main line of the Northern Pacific at Casselton, the fields look nearly s yellow as gold and fully 40 per cent showad no signs of heading on the 25th inst. North and west of Devil's lake and south of the Northern Pacific to yenue prospects are good, Again, in Minnesota, south of St. Puaul, and between Mankota and the Missis- sippi, the acreage sceded is scarcely more than’ one-third of last year, and here, too, chinch bugs have done important injury, al- though light as compared with last season. In Towa the ucreage is small, and being badly lodged, as well as rusted by general storms, this crop must be poor, as well as small, Al together, I do not think it possible that this year's crop in Minnesota and Dakota can yield within 10 per cent of a year ago, and that this entire crop, measured by receipts at Chicago, Milwaukee, Minneapolis and Duluth will fall 15 per cent short. Oats, in Illinois and Iowa, are badly lodged and rusted, and while the 10ss to what they would have been but for this injury is fully 20 per cent, yet the large acreage is likely to make this & fair crop. In these states har- vest is now general. In Minnesota and Da- Kota this crop is still green, but prospects are good. Rye, north and west of our city, is a heavy crop, dad is now being wmostly hirvested in shock. Barley is a light crop, and where flelds are heavy is discolored. Corn has good growth and color, and the indications are for & good crop, but owing to an ordinary or common stand 1 cannot call it any better than good. However, the acreage is larger than usual. Hay, although much injured by the exten- sive storms of 4th and 13th inst, is doubtless one of the largest ever secured at this date. e The Coffee Market. The new crop of Brazilian coffee is being marketed quite freely and prices are weak- ening, although there is a fairly active de- mand from all parts of the coffec-drinking world. Omaha wholesale grocery merchants have received some sample bags and they show up very nicely. Evidently the crop is a big one and good in point of quality. At Rio Janeiro the stock of coffee has béen in- creased to 100,000 bags, against a total of 157,000 bags a week earlior and 263,000 bags a year ago: and at Santos the stock is given as 60,000 bags (27,000 bags in second hands). The free arrivals and increasing accumula- tions at the ports of outlet ll'lld todepression and private cables note heaviness. The week's export purchases reached 25,000 bags at Rio Janeiro for the United States and_at Santos 3,000, against receipts at Kio Juneiro of 86,000 bags and at Santos of 15,000 bags. The re- ceipts at Rio Janeiro July 1 to 23 were 258,000 bags and at Santos 52,000 bags, against dur- ing the same time last year réspectively 85, 000 and 69,000 OMAHA LIVE STOOK.
