THE SPECULATIVE MARKETS, ‘Wheat Nervous and Higher, But Traders Bearishly Disposed. THE VISIBLE SUPPLY MELTING. Corn Inactive With Prices From Steady to Firm—Oats Nearly Stationary~COattle and Hoge Active. CHICAGO PRODUCE MARKETS, Cureaco, July 8.—~[Special Telegram to Tur Bee,]—~Wheat was nervous and higher to-day. The trading crowd was bearishly disposed most of the day and several times the market got atarted down, but the declin- ing tendency was often checked, and the market eventually made a substantial gain and held its ground near the top. The situs tion 18 not favorable to lower prices just at the homent. ‘The Northwestern crowd is in & critical and precarious condition. The re- ceipta of new wheat at the primary winter wheat points are disappoirtingly small, and the visible supply continues to decrease at u rapid rate. It was reduced 13,500,000 bushels last week and is now 14,000,000 busaels, of which probably 2,000,000 bushels cannot properly be classed as belonging to the mer- chantable grades. Already reduced to mer- ger limits, the visible supply promises to de- crease for the remainder of the month, and 1t would not occasion surprise to see it ko down to 10,000,000 bushels. Then the for- eign markets are looking up, and even “lat- est cables” confirms the news previously tel- egraphed of “‘hardening” values. The crop ovatlook the world over no longer supports the theory that thero is going to be over an average yield. On the contrary the testimony s getting convincing that it will be under tho average. These are the things that dis- courage short selling and encourage the de- velopment of confidence in higher prices, December wheat opened at 80c, just where it left off Satur t. Itaavanced to 803c, sold back fractionally and then adavanced to B0%(c. This gain wus made while the visibio supply figures were coming in. When the result was announced, making the de- crense greater than had been gencrally expected, the market broke to 0% @S0%c. tut subsequent proceedings proved the back movement was made in order W get u better start, for the course of values during the Jast hour was upward. The advance was marked by growing excitement and heavy trading. Late cables were strong and more active among the large local traders, who were_energetically on the long side. The market was unqualitiedly strong. From 801 to 803c, December wheat pulled up a trifle and then moved quickly to 803%c. After u auso it jumped to 811¢e, slid back to 0K @ 1o and then climbed to 81¥c. There wus a big fight and very beavy trading above Slc and & prodigious effort was made to break tho market. ‘The close was 8li{c, or lijc above Saturday. July opened ut 83c, ranged to 83@Sdi¢o, and closed at 883¢e, which was 5c better thun Satur- aay. There was hardly a trade in July the last hour, the attention being largely concen- trated on Decomber. There was consider- able trading in_Sept r, howoever, with limits of 75 /@i9)gc. There Was more or less activity for the cash wheat market here ana elsewnere. The stufl is gowng into consump- tion rapidiy. In New York July wheat ad- vanced sharply early, and held the improve- ment. Every where cash wheat was quota- bly higher, even ir St. Louis, tho hot bed of the bearishness, In this market an active inquiry for red winter wheat was noted, and negotintions ure in progress involving good sized lincs, ‘The corn market was inactive, but in the face of the very favorable weather for the growing crop and the continved liberal re- ceipts, prices were from ateady to firm. The rrlnd[ul cause of the firmness is to be founa n the excellentconsumptive demand at home and abroad, which slowly but surely lessens the avauable stocks. The fluctuations were narrow, with very little appearance of outsiders being heavily inter- ested. The New York market was quoted dull. The export cleurances on Saturday were only moderate, and buying for export to-duy was said to be slack. Prices closed fractionally higher than on Saturday, ncar by deliveries being rather firmer than the more deferred, and cash corn was bringing about ge premium over seller for the month. Outs were nearly stationary, with specula- tive transactions small at about previous figures, There was a lack of outside trading and the tone was one of easine ncrease in the visible supply of some 437,000 bushicls was large, taking into consid- eration the fact thatawe are now at the end of the old crop, with a large yield promised at the coming harvest. There were buyers ¢, but a shade above was askod 3 September easy at 227%@225¢c. Tho'receipts of old oats were large, but so was the out inspection, with 220,800 bushels taken from store for shipment. Car lots sold fairly well at 223{c for No. In provisions the week ope promise of improvement, The weuk tone witnessed lately was continued, and in the way of trading there was no increase of life. Operators of all clusses were conservative to-duy, and for cash and future delivery the business transacted made quite a poor show- ing. The fluctuations were also confined to 8 small rango, and at the adjournment prices showed put little change from Suturday’s closing. Short ribs rested unchanged to 31gc betier, lard 21¢@5e hugher, and pork from 230 lower to Sgc higher, ed without any CHICAGO LIVE STOCA MARKET.

A DEMOORATIO STILL RUNT, An Attempt to Be Made to Oarry the New States, New Yong, July 8.—[Speciul Telogram to Tanr Bee,]—The World says it can be stated on unquestioned authority that the demo- cratic national committee does not intond to let the election 1n the four new northwest states go by default. The democratic na- tional committee has decided to make a vigorous fight in all four of the new states. All the factions of tho party are united on that point. The eloction comes oft in Octo- ber. Colonel Brice belicves that two of the new statos—Montana and Washington—oan be landed in the democratic camp. When the democratio national committee met last month, the campalgn in the northwest was discussed Informally, Since then Colonel Brico has been iu communication with the leading members of the committee. For obvious reasons the aemocrats do not Propose to nse any brass band in the con- test. The battle will assume more the char- acter of a still hunt on their side. The dem- ocrats will have trusted representatives in each of the states, and_overy inch of ground will e contested.” A special agent of the committee will go to Montana somo timo this month ard take charge of the prelimi- nary survey of tho fleld. He will also go to Washington and through the two Dakotas, About the 1st of September a special repro- sentative of the national committee will be sent to each stato and remain until the elec tion has been decided. Tho only difforence of opimion that is said to exist among the members of the democratic committeo is ns 10 whether they shall make tho fight in all four states, or concentrate their efforts to carrying Montana and Washington.
