Brond CHICAGO, Aug. 1.—Bullish crop seared shorts in corn today and the market went up with a rush, closing 2%c higher. Corn carried the other markets with it, wheat closing %4c higher, oats %ec higher and provisions at an advance for the week Wheat became active for the day, th range being lc. The feeling developed was steady, and the general market was in- clined to follow corn. Local professionals and New York led in the buying, and the northwest sent a good share of the selling orders, while advices from the spring wheat territory were very favorable. Cables were weaker in tone and receipts liberal, both of which were inclined to depress the mar Ket after the opening, but the bulge in corn checked the downward course and values ad vanced.

Septem- bor opened at 46%c and gradually sold up from 1%c to 1%c, with an advance of lc for May, eased off from 1%c to 1%e, advanced from 7%c to 134c, changed some, ruled firm and closed with September a 477%c. The ¢country was buying freely again and offer $ngs were meagre at times, which was quite feature. The various state reports were bullish and the government weekly weather bulletin was also of the same tenor, which fncreased the buying orders from the out- #ide, as receivers and commission houses all had orders to purchase at the opening. The weather map showed no general rains. The state report of lowa was very bullish, as also was Nebraska’s, but Missouri, Ilinois and Kansas reported the crop in much bet- ter condition. September was relatively rmer than the rest of the list. the com- aratively light stocks and moderate re- ceipts, together with a good demand for the cash article, making shorts rather nervous. Oats were higher in sympathy with corn The range for September was %c. Provisions were dull but firm on the strength in corn.

Aug. 1.—There was a big boom market on the Produce exchange today, which impartcd ftself to the other grain rkets and caused a strong closing all around. The corn ring was transferred at times into a howling crowd of operators with a_hubhub which rivalled the dealings in wheat. Corn had been advanced on diy weather news for some days, but Iate yesterday was weakened considerably by weather predictions of rains through the corn belt last night. They failed to muterlalize and as a result the market today was ulir “lireworks' affair and closed from ) 20 above last night, with a change of ‘about 2c during the day. No hope is given of any rain and crop dispitchis are Erowing worse every day. Alre price of corn s within 1%e of the price of wheat.

NEW YORK, Aug. 1.—This was another Qull day on the Stock exchange, and the general trend of speculation was in the di- rection of lower figures. The chlef op erators in the market were the bears, and the conditions favored them. The seewing irreconcilable differences belween the enato and house on the tariff bill, giving promise of an extended session of congress and (L by keeping the financial and commercial community in a state of uncertainty, cannot be regarded as an inducement to stocks for a rise. The condition of the corn crop s not such, according to the most favorable advices, us to lead to the opinion that the granger roads will be tested severely as to their carrylng capacity to bring it to market. Gold shipments are still being made, and the treasury gold reserve is declin- ing with & steadiness which is looked upon with disfavor, to say the least, by the finan- clers of the country and the financial officers of the government. But with all these un- favorable elements the stock market gives o evidence of inherent weakuess. Particu- lar stocks give way under influences affect- ing them alone, and under the manipulation of cliques groups of stock depreclate in value, only to recover when the manufac- | moved in tured pressure to sell is removed. But no general liquidation Is in progress, there is no apparent desire on the part of “the hold- ers of stocks to sacrifice them in the fear that the bottom is about to drop out of the market. On the contrary, while lower values have been established, the declines have been largely manipulated, and it has re- quired heavy short sales to bring out a small_amount of long stock. It Is a fact that many of the leading shares are now heavily oversold, and in some of them the short Interest is unylelding, For the past few days Sugar and the granger stocks have been the only ones in which there has been ny active trading, and as a rule they have opposite dircctions, Sugar going the grangers were moving up This stock broke 1% per cent closed within % per cent of point touched. The grangers were weak on a selling movement which was directed from Chicago and principally agafnst Burlington & Quincy. This stock broke 1% per cent to 715 and closed within % per cent of the lowest point touched. Rock Island was also offered down, receding 114 per cent to 631, and recovering % per cent. Northwestern lost % per cent, clos- ing at the lowest Paul was held well until the attack, giving way only % per cent and regaining % per cent. The trans- actions were large in Sugar, which in the opening dealings declined 1 per cent, but quickly recovered and on good buying ad- vanced 1% per cent to 1043, closing % per cont from the highest. Oregon Improve- ment declined 1 per cent. 1In the rest of the shares traded in the movement was merely fractional. The market, which was rregular throughout the day, closed fairly steady at a partial recovery from the bot tom figures. The bond market was heavy during the day and closed weak. The Evening Post sa The speculative situation—for the warkets are nothing at the moment but a mirrior of professional movements—may be summed up as follows A strong and ageressive clique of operators has gone to work breaking down stocks and advancing corn. In stocks they cannot count on selling from investors, but on the other hand they do not fear investment buying With sentiment in its present shape a sud- den breaking of the senate deadlock would cheek thelr venture instantly, but they tuke this chance, and have not yet misreckone The foliowing were the closing quotations on the leading stocks of the New York ex- change today: Atelitson down while and vice versa. to 71%, and the lowest A3 Northorn Pacine Adams EX No. Pac. pfd..

The report that the packing house men were striking evidently had the effect of cutting down the recsipts, as only about 900 cattle, 9,900 hogs and 34 sheep were received today. This was a heavy falling oft as com- pared with yesterday, when 2,040 catle, 20,- 684 hogs and 859 sheep were received. The total receipts for the first three days of the present week are 5650 cattle, 42,760 hogs and 1,183 sheep, as against 6,184 cattle, 784 hogs and 1,166 sheep for the correspond- ing -days of last week CATTLE—There dressed beef steers, was reatty no market on The offerings were light and nefther shippers nor packers were in- clined to buy anything, the latter being in poor shape to operate while their butchers are on a strike. A fow were reported as sold, but were half-fat stuff and would not classed as dressed beef steers little_more doing in bu‘cher market was ex tremely dull and the demand very light There were very few really desirable cattle and the market on such might be called about stead, but the more common grades and rough stock was weak to 10c lower. There was some inquiry for stockers and feeders from the country, and there was some trad- g in this class of ca‘tle. The general mar- Ket was about steady. In a general way it may be sald that the market is very dull and it is hardly to be expected that there will be much improvement until the outcome of the labor troubles is better understood.

There was, however, a.fair shipping demand, which helped out very materially. The mar- ket as a whole did not show much change as compared with yesterday. If anything the best hogs sold alittle stronger, whi the common, trashy stuff was weak. The quality of thie hogs arriving at the present time averages veby low and by some it is claimed™ that the proportion of poor hogs was neyer so large at these yards, not even in 1890, the time of the last crop failure.

WORK OF MINNEAPOLIS MILLS. hortage of Water Fower Is Badly capping Mills at that Point. MINNEAPOLIS, Aug. 1.—The Northwe ern Miller say Minneapolis mills week ground 171,120 barrels of flour, against 000 the week before. Shortage of water wer 18 badly handicapping them. There appears to have been more life to the flour market last week, and though very low prices had to be accepted, the sales r ported approximated 220,000 barrels. There was quite free selling for export. The dc mestic trade still consists in the main of small orders that are to be quickly turned over again. Export shipments were 40,000 barrels, against 34,00 barrels the week the year before. The Superior-Duluth mills made 95,620 barrels, against 62,481 barrels the previous week. Seven mills are this week producing at the rate of 16,000 bar Flour sales were moderate last week, The export market is dull; stock of flour at the mills and in transit is 21,500 bar The Mil- waukee mills ground nst 20,638 barrels the wee y are drawing wheat from luke to krind. Forelgn trade seems disposed to make low prices on the basis of 17s 6d for patents, London. The market in the east 1s unfavorable, as a rule.
