THE SPECULATIVE MARKETS. General Features of Wheat Trading Unchanged From Tuesday. CORN QUIET AS 7O SPECULATION Oats Experience Perfods of Positive Dullness—The Tendency of Pro- visions in Favor of Holders ~QCattlc Business Active. CRICAGO PRODUCE MARKETS, Cntoaco, August 7.—[Special Telegram to Tuw Bee.]—The general features of the wheat market were unchanged from the prominent characteristics of the previous day. Dulliness, inactivity and narrow fluc- tuations aguin prevailed, with a downward tendency to prices. Apart from the news of the day there is an underlying feeling domi- nating the minds of speculators that we have an abundant crop of excellent wheat, more than sufMcient for our own wants, and with enough surplus to gatisfy all possible demands upon us from abroad. Fluctuations 1 the active month—December—were from 783¢c at the opening to 78}c within an hour thereafter, and the ups and downs from that time to the close were within & 3¢ range. The closing vrico was 781{(@78%ec, which is from Jc to 4c lower than the resting figure. The news afforded by early bulletins was in favor of the bears, The principal factor was the collapse of the wet weuther boom in England, the weather being re- ported improving to-day, and the Liverpool market in consequence was quoted ¥@1d lower. Late private cables yesterday fore- shadowed bear dispatches to the board this morning, but & confirmation of the fact was the cause of the weak opening. Beerbohm supplied additional comfort to the bears by reporting an increase of 1,802,000 bushels in the quantity on ocean passage, which, how- ever, exceeded by 512,000 the computation of the board of trade correspondent, who fig- ured the increasc at 880,000, but even & smaller quantity was a fair bear argument. Everything was lovely around the harvest fialds of the spring wheat region, and the weather 1n the southwest was likewise favor- able to the threshing of winter wheat. Items from which the bulls drew comfort were not wanting in _force when sup- 1 by the abwding faith ‘which s found in hopeful breasts. ‘There wero dispatches shown on the floor, said to be from relinble parties, which reported damage of u serious nature Yrom frost early in the week eandlnn Afty miles south of the Can- adian line, roxu.rl were buying moder- ate uunnill\el New York to-duy, fifteen boat loads being reported taken, and thase was good inquiry for cash wheat here and for vessel room, although the actual charters reported were only 96,000 bushels. The fore going appears to furnish a fair amount of eucouragement to the bulls, but, as indicated above, the bears secured the substantial ad- vantage of u decline of ¢ in the activo fut- ures, which is the view of the surroucdings most acceptable to the majority to-duy, The corn market was again quiet in the way of speculution, and in the shipping de- mand early there was much heavinuss, and the market sold off some, but part of this was subsequently recovercd. At the close sellor September was about i{c lower than it closed yesterday. The market was nar- row, howev er, and the range covered by the fiuctuations was only about 3c. At the closo the feeling was barely steady. Oats lapsed into quictude, with the regular market at times positively dull. Trading or- ders were not pressing and the feeling was shade easier, partly in sympathy with corn. The possible excoption was the relative strength in December, owing to somo orders to scll September and buy the month named, with fow sellers appearing. No. 2 white onts for Soptember sold at 24%c. ‘They were sub- sequently offered at 2415 @249¢c. No. 2 reg- ular sold fairly well at wb 1n provisions the tendéncy is still some- what favorable for holders. Trading opened this morning with u feeling quite bulhisn ard the market promptly showed an advancing inclination under the lead of lard. In the last named article therc was considerable stir and nlso a rather sharp advance. Pork and short ribs were also in comparatively guod demand for a while after the opening. ubsequently operations all around became conservative, yet there was no marked change in the prevailing tone and the best ;arlcu of the day were obtained at or just be- fore the ndjournment of 'change. Based on yesterday’s lust quotations the day’s ac mnl advance in pork was b@7hgc, in lard 10@123¢ and in short ribs 2}¢@idgc. CHICAGO LIVE STOCK. CnicAGo, August 7.—[Special Telegram to Tar B |—CArrie.—Business was active and prices steady, with, as has been the rule for more than a month, best export and shipping steers selling firm and all other native steers left until near the close of the market. The imcrusted ‘‘chestnut” of *‘good cattie steady, medium und common lower," came tripping from the mouth of many a sulesman, who seemed to forget that he had drifted to that damnable utterance so much indulged in by unthinking speculators, The Texas steors and rangers on sale made about the samo prices as heretofore. There was quite a display of rangers, and about 4,000 Texans on the market. Nothing of =~ uote was going on in the stocker and feeder trade -nd nm,lve butchers’ stock was selling sbout the same as last week.

FINANOIAL. New York, August 7.—|Special Telegram to Tum Bre.|—Srocks—There was a less bullish feeling in stocks at the uptown re- sorts last night and less decisive action in the general list early to-day. It was conced- ed that much of the short interest has been eliminated sud its force lost on the bull side. It was apparent that the leading bulls soid on the closing decline vesterday; it was thought both to take out profits and shake out & too numerous foilowing. ‘The Chicago interest is bullish for a loug run, and dis- patches indicate that the public may become buyers to the extent of preveuting aby more thun a healthful recrcation. The taking of Burlington by inside parties attracts atten- tion. Furst prices were generally slight fractions higher thau last evening’s figure, but Delaware & Hudson was exceptional, with & rise of 3{ per cent at 146}, There were further aavances in early dealigs of small fractions, though in a few cases marked strength was shown, and Lake Erie & Western preferred, aftor opening up 4 per cent at 62, rose 1§ per cent to 6 3¢, but afterward lost a portion of the improvement, Chesapeake & Ohio stocks were strong and first preferred rose 3¢ per cent to 68%, and Rock Island rose 5 per cent. Burlington moved up 3 to 108, St. Paul ¥ to 72, Missouri Pacific ) to 71 and Union Pacific 3 per cent 10 61, The entire market then re- moted and most stocks returned to small fractions below the opening figures. After the first hour there was a drooping tendency i stocks, with slight changes until noon. During the closing hours there was more de- oided weakuess because of the prospect of further disturbances among southwestern roads. Chuuges from last night were not sigaificant except in Chesapeake & Ohio com- mon, which wus 3§ per cent bhigher at 25)¢ for first preferred aud ¥ per cent over the ar opening at 685, Sugar trust lost a point to 114}, Big Four experienced a net loss of 5 per cont, Other slight changes were: Atchison, Burlington, iNorthwestern, and Chicago gac 3 per cent each lower, and Reaaimg, Missouri Pacific and Rock Island each 1§ per cent higher.

Stovx Ciry, Tn,, August 7.—[Special to Tne Beuj—There was avery heavy ram between Norfolk and this city, Cedar and Wayne counties being fn the center of the storm. The upper branches of the Logan are bauk full and a washoutis reported on the Hartington branch. So far as appears on the Norfolle brauch little damage was done, whilea heavy rain will bo of great ad- vantage to grass, corn and other late crops. The general outlook for crops has been unus- ually fine. Some threshing of wheat in Wayne county gave from twenty to twenty- sevon bushels per acre. The grading 18 completed and bridging well under way on the Sioux City & Ogden rail- road, or Pacific Short Line, to Plainview, in Picrce county. A large portion of the grad- ers on this line have gone to work on the Sioux City & Northwestern railroad between Merritt station and Palisades, where this railroad is to intersect the Manitoba rail- road, thus making a second direct line to Duluth, wnd with the Union Pacific a con- tnuous line to the Pacific coast from Sioux Sity. The corn palace festival in Sioux City will in many respects excel either of its prede- cessors. ‘The palace will be higher and more ample. The harvest excursions will enable many to see Nevraska's mammoth crops and take in this festival.
