THE SPECULATIVE NARKETS. ‘Wheat Dull and Uninteresting Aside From a Little Flurry. NEw YORg, Au ust 20.—|Special Telegram to Tnr Brr|—-Stocks—Action in stocks yesterday, resulting in losses of @’ per cent through the entire list, did not cause any additional bear tatk or hope. The ad- verse news was sufficient to ordinarily cause aflurry and & much sharper decline. The fact that little stock was brought out and was taken by good parties rather afforded encouragement to the bulls, Action in trasts was traceablo to the banks, and goes to show that the best institutions are un- willingto acoept those securities on time loans, It also goes to show that the bank interests will fignt any unreasonable raid on the part of the bears touching standard railroaa shares. This left the bull side of the trade feeling better last night, notwithstanding the losses recorded during the day. The effect was also felt this mornng when tho market opened with animation and first prices generally @Y per cent over last night. The only feature was the transac- tions in trust stocks, The sugar trust was remarkable, with a gain of 2 per cent at 109. Cotton ofl, however, resumed its decline of yesterduy and dropped to 48, aguwinst 40°¢ lart evening. Sugar, after a further ad- vance to 1094, reacted to 107’¢, while lead declined a fraction. Late in the hour there was a partial reaction. In railroad shares, Burlington sold ex-dividend at 1033, and up 10 104, thus regaining half the dividend from the close sterd: Wabash preferred moved up 3 per cent to 84). Delaware & Hudson went to 140! and Lackawanna to 146, Other changes up to noon were unim- portant. The best prices of the day were reached after 12 o'clock, when grangers were strong on reports of earnings. Bur- lington went to 104%, closing at 104§ ex- dividend. St. Pail touched 72X, but closed steady at 77%. Big Four gamed 1} per cont to 7714, and Chesapeake common % per cent to 25!, Coul stocks waere unusually strong. Delaware & Hudson closed at 149, and Lackawanna at 1467, or 13 per cent higher, Trusts got over their carly flurry. The total sales were 113,604 shares.

CHICAGO PRODUCE MARKETS, Ci1cAGo, August 20,.—[Special Telegram to Tue Bee—There was a little flurry in September wheat today that caused some excitoment for a few minutes, but asde from that the market ruled dull and uninteresting. It was sadly in need of “elixiration,” to use a newly coined phrase descriptive of Brown-Sequard’s rejuvenating process. Statistics and most of the news had a bullish flavor, but there was no snap to speculative inquiry and values didn’t appreciate. Indeed, the markoet seemed to have an undertone of heaviness. Fourout of five of the scalpers were bearish, but their influence just now is not important Their operations sometimes make a chango of 4o ofesuch a matter, but these trivial variations in quotations possess no sidnifi- cance. The news that was most industriously circulated for speculative effect was a dis- patch from Russia via New York that the Russian erop would be an average one and that it would exceed the recent estimates, This report had not much influence in view of the recent official and semi-official utterances to the contrary, but it wasused as a club, and there was consid- erable seliing on the strength of it by George Smith, Cudahy and others. English cables were flatly contradictory, but those usually regarded as the most reliable represented the weather as unsettled and the market firm on that account and small offerings. New York operators had it that the foreign market was depressed and lower on clearing weather and expected heavy shipments of American wheat. Not strictly in harmony with the bear information came well authen- ticated reports that ocean freight room was in demand at the seaboard for “‘wheat to ar- & N, o prererred N.Y.Central. fesnie frifhenad & acifl rive.”” In addition it was learncd that new | cpjcago& Alton. ..

The amount 1405 St.PAuL & Omahs - on passage decreasad 850,000 bushels. This was & bull item of no consequence. ‘Che northwest continues to keep the mails und wires laden with bearish advice and opinion, but as yet the statistics do not particularly favor that side. Receipts of spring wheat are not coming up to expectations, but it might be well for those who are disap- pointed because the whole spring wheut crop has not yet been shipped in from tue country to remember that a year ugo yesterday a hard frost destroyed millious of bushels of wheat 1n the northwest. This year the crop has been saved, but the date is nevertheless very early 1o go into mourning over the fail- ure of the crop to come to the front.

Tuesday, August 20. To-day's operations on the cattle market amounted to considerable in tho end, but were devoid of life. There were no strictl, choice or toppy beeves on the mar! Less than half of the cattle were natives, and a very large proportion of the offerings was up of westerns, Texans and half- breeds that had been fed moro or less corn, Few of them were good, and even those that had had some corn were not very fat. Aside from a few odds and ends the native beeves sold at §3.50@4.25, principally at $3 65@1.00, and the westerns at $3, 104,50, The murket on strictly choice or ‘prime beeves conld bo quoted steady, and fair to_good cattle h@l0c lower than last weck. When it came to the common grades there was almost no market, the buyers not making much of an effort to buy and bidding 20@35¢ lower than the high point lust week, ‘I'he demand for cow stuff was quite good, and although ther: more here than there have been duri past two days, the market was stronger and higher, In some cases sales were made that were fully 10¢ higher. The prices paid for cows ranged from §1.75 to $2.50, but largely from $1.95 to §3.25. The market on feeders and stockers did not show any materwl change. There were quite a good many cat- tle of that description and a quite a good many buyers in the yards. ~As high as §3.00 was paid for some good feeders. Ho s, ‘The shippers and light hog men started out in the morning paying steaay. prices for good igut hogs. A good many light sorts went at $4.00 and some light mixed at $3.90@3.95. The market was quite active on the lights and a clearance was soon -effected, but directly the reverse was true of heavy hogs. The ship- pers bought a few good loads at $3.80, or about bo lower than yesterday. The heaviest packers, however, held back, and when the slumn,rs had filled their orders ali th -y would give for the balance was £3.70(@3.75. The heavy hog market was extremely sll)\v, salesmen’ being very reluctant to make so great a concession. At midday there were still a good muny loads unsold.
