ALL SEPTEMBER GRAINS QUIT HIGHER Wheet Opens Strong and Oats DI Vivacity, but July Corn is While Provisions Close Lower. CHICAGO, July 0.—Heavy rains through- the wheat belt, where generally fair weather bad been predicted, was the chief cause for higher prices on the Board of Trade today. There was an active trade in wheat and September closed %c higher; Beptemoer corn was e higher, oats 1i4c higher, but provisions closed from 6c to e_lower. Wheat opened active and streng, prices belng nearly lc above yesterdays closc, Fxcessivo and general rains throughout ihe country was the exciting fagtor. There was a good commission house buying for_country account, local Interests Were bullish and bought freely, while shorts fell over themselves In an endeavor to get to cover.

The opening ure on July was lc below yesterday's fofcse, at 8ic, and although there was some rain offered at 8ic, scarcely any was bid . The close was ‘at the opening figure. rade in other grain months was not par- but a good demand ex- ‘isted during the whole session and prices ‘were higher on rains and smaller move- ment. September opened %@l%c higher at 14@81%¢c, advanced to 62¢c and closed with 'a ‘galn of %o at Gigeie. Local recelpts ‘were 110 cars, with 15 of contract grade. Oats were 'exclted, with the new July Sle, or nearly bc higher than yesterday's close, and the more distant fu- fures also advanced sharply. Heavy rain in the west and southwest were respon. #ible for the upward trend to the markets Shorts were much frightened at the unfa- vorable outlook and covered freely; Bep- tember opened H@%e higher at Siaoiyc, sold up to %o and closed atrong and 156 higher at 34%c. Local recelpts were 16 cars. Thers was & falr amount of business transacted in provisions, with offerin more free than for some time past. The sale of a big line of pork and ribs for an outsider caused weakness early in the ses- sion, but covering by shorts gave support to fhe market and the close was about ,steady, = Beptember pork opened E@7hc lower at $18.6244@18.65 and after ranging be- |tween $18.3714 and $I8.65 closed 100 lower at $18.60; Beptember lard closed 7ic lower at $10.9; ribs were bc lower at $10.12%.

Late Buyers of Speculative Element Sell for Profits. NEW YORK, July 9.—The stocks today was obviously by the specula- tive element which bought previously on the prospect of a rise, their motive being, of course, to take profits. Whether any actual developments bearing upon values were considered is not clear, but there wera one or two considerations which must be construed against a further advance in PR mark ¢ 8 e marking up o t. Paul and New York Centry together with some of the ®oft coal stocks that were strong yester- day is perhaps sufficiently explained as a measure of manipulation to facllitate the taking of elsewhere. Some of the hlgh priced industrials worked higher on what had the appearance of Investment demand, 4 e osed suit to enjoin the payment of a drmnd on United States Steel com. mon came in for some vigorous denunc tions as to its motives by officials of the corporation and the advance in the stock was apparently intended as a notice to op- onents of a purpose to protect the stock n the market. Of the factors making for the seiling side, the continued heavy movement of currency to Chicago was an important one, Including & deposit of 350,000 at the treasury for telegraphic transfer to Chlicago and shipments by express it is stated that :::ul 600,000 went to that point from here a: The exigencles of the corner in the July option in corn are supposed to account for this heavy movement. The large commit- ments belleved to be held In the stock market by the managers of the corn corner occasion some uneasiness over the possible results of a failure of the corn crop, such have accompanied many similar at- tempts in the past. The day's weather news was considered to make & big showing also for corp pros- pects, too much rain being indicated. The failure to advance the Louisville & Nashville dividend rate to a 6 per cent basis was a disappointment to some specu- lators who had acted on “tips,” but there ‘was no general pectation of an increase, As was expected after yesterday's ex: change market movement, no export e gagement of gold was announced. The usually heavy government disbursements are favoring the money market. ‘The prolonged advance in Missouri Pacific made the welght of realizing In that stock y heavy and the bears made a renewed attack and also on Western Union and Sugar, the former on the termination of connections with the Pennsylvania Cen- tral and the latter on the large capital el barking In opposition. Amalgamated Copper was sold on ae- count of the declining tendency of raflway copper. m bond market was rather quiet and steady. Total sales, par value, $2,275,000.

Gold premiums are quoted at Buenos Ayres at 130,30, at Madrid at 3515 and at Lisbon at 21.50, Money was in good supply today and wanted for repayments to the Bank of England, preparations for the payment of a call for consols tomorrow and Stock ex- change requirements July 11. Discounts were strengthened by the demand for gold in Paris, which city has purchased most of the recent Cape arrivals. Business on the Stock exchange was generally dull. Operators were mostly absorbed in arrang- ing the accounts and were nervous regard- ing the outcome. - Persistent liquidations depressed Kaffirs. It was sald that much of the liquidation was forced by a _big South African house aiming at lower prices, Other " departments were affected where sales were necessary to pay for losses in Kaffirs.

Trading at thie market started in right close to steady, but after a few sales had been made the market took a drop and the bulk of the hogs sold a big nickel lower. As the morning _advanced the feelin seemed to grow weaker and packers evi- dently wanted to buy their hogs b@ioc lower, Sellerk were holding for more money, so that the market was slow and it_was late before anything like a clear- ance was made. The bulk of the good welght hogs sold from $7.80 to $7.9 and the medium weights went from $.75 to $7.8 and the light stuft went from $7.70 down. At noon there were still a good man; hogs unsold and packers were very indif- ferent buyers and were generally biddin a dime lower. The light stuff they woul hardly look at at all. The market then opened weak to a nickel lower and closed a dime lower. Representative sales: No. . 8h. Pr. No. Av. 8h. Pr. . I . 3. » 0. [N .
