WHEAT DOES NOT HOLD THE ADVANCE Higher and Provisions Are Stromger, but Onts Closes Lower in the Pit Than the Day Before. Corn Closes 12.—-A killing l{nn”” e corn welt ruled the grain pits by Wil Corn 'snorts were larkely pared for this sort of news there wus a ®oud upturn in the coarser grain l'll”y.lnd ¢ood ana active business was done.

The outside however, was weak, warmer Weather 'was predicted and while some of The corn was reported damaged b0 per cent Jonge in general 100K promuts. Most of the Corn gain was lost and wheat under pres sure closed weak. in the end Septembe and December wneat both lost dc. Sep tember and December corn gainea e December oats Iu;l' We. Provisions closed isc o W@LKe higher. M‘r’!r:/. mmhmprnuuuunury puying in of ghort corn had been done in anticipation of the frosts thac the market was pereft of the exciting feature that otherwise would have characterized the opening. Killing 1rosts were reported in the Dakotas, Minne sota, lowa and Nebraska, and g frosts in_southern Kansas. At Spe ) la., the damage was esl imated at o per cent. What was missed in last night's frosis bid fair to be nipped tonight. <A Dig buying business started early, led by commission houses. The local crowd was somewhat again: the price and sold, but the demand was gooa, and falr ad- Varnces were registered early. Local re- celpts were improved both in’ quality and uantity and cables turned a trifle better. While most of the local crowd wanted early rofits it was nearly mid-gession When the outside began to be affected by the advances and at that time highest prices were reached. However, the late llquidation and Yl’edlcllon! for warmer weather after {tonight's probable —frosts lopped off much of the corn gain. May ‘was strongest and closed strong at %c up at 4. The near options were supplied to the shorts in sufiicient demand and with the belief that the frost scare was passed traders allowed prices to close at barely firm figures. September sold as high as 6igc and closed l4c up at Sbe. December ®old at Migc and closed Y%c higher at %@ 44c. Recelpts were 218 cal 60 of contract grade. Wheat made some advances early in the day in sympathy with the cofn buige. but afier a fairly heavy business the pit turned heavy and the close was weak. At the outset_buying was general under the lead of u big elevator and the commission houses. The frosts northwest, the con- tinuation of the small spring movement and good clearances were the other bullish incentives. After the initial upturns the early buyers turned quiet sellers and the gain and more besides was lost. lnglish cables were lower, but the continent held firm. St Louls was a fair buyer here. in- asmuch as the corn market was the leader the clearing slump in wheat was attributed in some extent to the decline in corn. December opened %@%c up at 69%@é%c, s0ld to 6bc and closed weak, ¢ lover at #9@69i4e. September sold from 7ic down to a weak close, %c off at 73%e. al re- celpts were 266 ‘cars 7 of contract grads Minneapolis and Duluth reported 631 cars, making a total for the three points of 88 cars, against 58 last week and 1,144 a year ago. Seaboard clearances in wheat ‘and flour equalled §40,000 bushels. Primary re- celpts were 1,112,000 bushels, compared to 1,418,000 bushels last year. Oats had only a smali share of the in- {erest today, corn detracting largely (rom |hl:l‘ )’I!‘. T er.t‘, ‘were no prominent features and ihe small caily advas sympathetic. There ‘was for cash stuff.

NEW ., YORK STOCKS 28 AND BONDS, Call Money Advances to 20 Per Cent at the Close. W YORK, Sept. 12—Call money i to 20 per cent shortly before of today's market and the list, wh had_been heavy throughout, closed W marked declines. Opening ' prices were lower, though mostly fractional, but the unsetiled tone ~which characterized day's comparatively moderate transaction was apparent from the outset Londo came fower in the absence of New York | support, though later there was consider- ad- | able improvement and a better demand for Internationals in that market Missourl | Pacific s the chief sufferer in the early trading, selling off abou! points and mak- ink no recovery. The decline in the gran- gere and Pacifics was in part due to re- ports of frost in the corn belt. The selling | | of Baitimore & Ohio was accompanied by | | reports that inslders had discounted lho'( extra stock issue. St. Paul recelved better | support soon after the opening, but in the main stocks which then held thelr own | were of the so-called pool class. Ther Was no great pressure ageinat any partic- ular stock, but the early high rate for call money—10" per _cent—coupled with reports that some of the banks were showing dis- crimination in the matter of collateral, added to_the Increasing uneasiness. Louls- ville & Naghville and Rock lsland were among the few stocks that reflected firm- ness at this juncture, the latter selling ex- dividend. Trading received another check in the second hour, when call money ad vanced some more, but no great amount o long stock seemed to be offered. Neverthe- less it was clear that a number of .veak | accounts were shaken out. There was a | rally in the granger group on reports that | the frost had done iittle damage and at the same time Manhattan also selling ex-divi- dend was being absorved in small lots on rumors of closer relations with New York Central, The United States Steel shares were heavy, with little or no evidence of sup- Rort, but the strength of Union Paclfic and | t. Paul was suggestive of pool support, while the weakness of Chesapeake & Ohio | was attributed to Inside seiiing. A fur- ther reactionary movement set in during the second hour of the afternoon, when mune" advanced to 15 per cent, Declines at that time embraced practic- ally all the active issues and brought prices to the lowest level of the day. Maximum | declines of 2 per cent were registered b St. Paul, Missourl Pacific, Norfoik & We ern and’ Northwestern, with a_%-poin: cline in Louisville & Nashville and greater lossee in the specialties ment of the 20 per cent rate on call m was the alznal for another selling me ment, but partial recoveries were made by St. Baul and Loulsville & Nashville. The final dealings brought some more liquida tan and the closing was heavy and u seftled. In addition to the net losses al- ready mentioned net declines of a point or over were made by Atchison, Baltimore & Ohlo, Chicago & Northwestern, Reading | second preferred, Minneapolls, St. Paul & Sault Ste. Marie preferred, North Amer- foan, Westinghouse, New York Afrbrake, Virginla-Carolina Chemical issues, the co per stocks and numerous others. Net gains London traded In about 1,600 shares, mostly on the buying side during the decline. Aside from the squeeze in the money mar- ket the monetary outlook generally was uiet! Forecasts showed turther heavy losses of cash by the banks, the greater part of it to the subtreasury, which pald out over $440,000 for pensions and al- most _§2,000000 for gold, also transferring $160,00 to New Orleans for crop purposes, but’ these operations will not show In to- morTow's bank statement. It was under- 8tood that the heavy loss in the surpius re. serves had been met by a calling in of loans. Reports of approaching imports of 6,000,000 to this center and Boston were not confirmed. The bond market was less active today and in sympathy with the depression in stocks. Total sales, $3,605,000, United States bonds were all anged on the last call.

For the week Teceipts have shown an increase over last week and as compared with the corre- sponding days of last year there is an enormolis increase. There were a few loads of half fat corn- feds on sale this morning, but the market was in bad shape. PacKers were bidding 80 much lower that sellers did nof. con- sider their bids as being anywhera near the market, but, on the other hand, pack- ers claim that they have been paying en tirely too much for the short fed caitle at this point as compared with Chicago. It was late before any business was trans. acted and the prices pald were a good deal lower than the same kinds have been bringing all the week. The general opinion was that strictly good corn cattle would not have shown much change, but there were none here to make & test of the situa- tion. There were only a few cars of cows in the yards and the market ruled active and fully steady on anything at all desirable. Good cows are strong for the week and in some cases a littie higher. The medium and canners are also fully stoad; Bulls, veal calves and stags sold in just about the same notches they did yesterday. The demand for stockers and feeders kept up in very satisfactory manner to- day and anything desirable sold at stead: P Common _stuff, though, was dull, the same as it has been all along. There were not enough western range beet steers in the yards to make a test of the market, good stuff could safely be quoted 'steady.

COKE BLOCKADE IS STILL IN EXISTENCE Genmeral C World East tions in the Basiness nd West Are En- —Lack of Fael Menace. NEW YORK, Sept. 12—R. G. Dun & Co.'s Weekly Review of Trade says: Industrial activity is greater than at any focent date. Many new factories and mills have been added to the productive capaci- tles and fdle shops resumed through the settlement of labor controversies. A coke blockade still exists, the rallways being unable to handle the output, which is above all records and in urgent Fequest Despite the rapid development of tran: portation facilities, the nation's needs have grown still faster and the situation fs dis- tressing for shippers and consumers Large crops are being harvested and the §reater abundance of foodatuffs caused a ecline in prices of commodities during August of 31 per cent, as measured by Dun’s index number. Retall Outlook Bright. Retall trade 18 large, with a bright ou look for the future In' jobbing and whale. sale business. There are few of the eancel lations 8o numerous at this time last yen while collections are improving. An ad- vance of 229 per cent in bank exchanges at New York over the same week last year nnot be explajned by speculation, ns dealings in stocks were heavy in 1901. Rall- way earnings in August excoeded last ear's by 4.2 per cent and those of 1900 by .1 per cent. Although the weekly capacity of plg fron furnaces in blast September 1 was reported at 535,112 tons by the Iron Age, it has since been appreciably curtailed by the inade- quate supply of fuel, on which account numerous furnaces were flown out or at least banked. As consumptive requirements are. increasing it Is necessary to place orders abroad more extensively, and in some cases the entire output of forelgn plants has been secured. Not only raw materfal but billets and even rails are sought In other markets, German mills offering the best terms in most _cases. Heavy Importations have prevented further advances in quotations, but domestio pro- ducers have a steady market for their out- |}u(l. contracts still running far into the uture. New Locomotives Needed. Railways are in great need of new loco- motives and other equipment. New England producers of boots and shoes are insisting on full prices and some grades that were slow to respond are now sharing the signs of improvement. No weakness is shown In leather, some selections still rising more, particulariy the better grades of sole and belting butts Slight reactions have occurred in some packer and country hides, but most lines are still firmly held. Liberal receipts have not depressed foreign dry hides. Textile mills are well occupled, with prices sustained in all cases and moderate ad- vances In some cotton goods which are in demand for quick delivery. With the com- pletion of early orders there has come a quiet market for woolens and worsteds, but mills have large contracts on hand, Low stocks of wheat and poor grading ot receipts, together with fears of frost In corn sections, sustained quotations when a decline would have been imminent if full confidence were placed in official returns of conditions. Fallures for the week numbered 206 in the United States, against 193 last year, and twenty-two in anada as against elghteen a year ago. AS VIEWED BY BRADSTREET Another Commercial Authority Gives a Synopsis of the Trade Conditions. NBW YORK, Sept. 12.—Bradstreet's wiil say tomorrow: 'aken as a whole fall trade Is expanding in volume, because western and northwest- ern markets report unabated activity, east- ern jobbing Is as active as heretofore and the south reports more doing at nearly a.l centers. Frost held off until the close of the week, when a scare was worked. up. Any deterforation now, however, can only be as to qunlll‘r. because the crop seems sure as to quantity. Industry is active and, except In the castern shoe manufacturing trade, the hard coal region and furnace work, the latter because of the coke short- age, present outputs equal and in most cases exceed records. Despite the fact that the new crops are only moving in small volume and the usual ncdvlty in anthracite coal Is absent, the inch of the car shortage is steadily grow- ng. That the trouble is not entirely one of too few cars seems evident from the heavy orders for locomotives given by the leading raflroad lines. Scarcity of help is noted in the south for picking cotton and at_gthe north in public works. ‘Wage advances are not entirely absent, and there is talk of a general movement for better compensation on western - Collections are uniformly satis tory, except at the south, but even there improvemcnt is noted at mun}’ points, due to_the increased movement of cotto One fact brought out in the reports as to activity in dry goo clothing, shoes, mii- linery and groceries is the general demand for higher_class of gox which mani- fests itself. Retall trade the country over also seems better, stimulated partly by cooler weather. From a number of cities complaints come from distributors that manufacturers are behind on orders. ‘The corn crop made satisfactory progress toward maturity until Friday, when gen- eral frost was reported, without, however, much effect on prices. Altogether govern- ment and private advices as to crops of cereals, fruits and tobacco are quite en- couraging fo I The qualily of oats will be bel ndard, owing to the wet weather in harvesting and muc! winter wheat is below grade. 'he reduced movement of hogs to market is rplnnll)' based upon fewer animals on the farm! Rice ylelds will be liberal in the and sugar cane ls m.kln‘ go0od progress. Dry weather will reduce t: crop of eitrus frults in Florida. Another notable feature ll"l’l;u general strength exhibited by prices. e allest stock of wheat luv‘rllol since 1598 is indl- cated both here and abroad. Export busi- uess In wheat was llr1e early in the week, and the lenden0r of this branch of business to expand at slight concessions 1s notable. Cotton goods are firmer, as much because of the steady insistent demand as because of the strength of the raw material, which closes 1-16@1c below last week. The situa- tion in woolen goods is very favorable to sellers. The strength in hides is the key- note to the leather and shoe markets, Bullding material is active and lumber leads in aggressive strength. A feature in keeping wl‘h the advanc! season 1s the higher range of farm g luce. KEgi higher and butter is advancing on consumption and reported manipulation by cold etorage interests. The shortage of fuel still exasperates the iron trade, which sees the foreign flood of fron and steel growln adily. The July import is probably not far from 100,000 tons. The use of large numbers of cars to carry soft coal to the anthracite regions aggra vates the shorta of coke in the tts burg district. But same complaints come from St. Louls and Chica Ralls and structural material are still the rominent features. Western mills will, delivery in . sburg reports ,000 tons of fore, Bessemer fron coming in monthly that district German billets ahd foundry iron are 0. ceming in in Increasing supply.
