Provisions were regular, closing be higher to 16c lower. Weather advices, reports of damage to crops in Nebraska, strong outside markets and cables all made for an _extremely ong wheat market and but for the greac amount of long wheat that came out a much larger aavance would have been re- corded.

Clearances of wheat and flour were large, equaling 665,- 000 bushels. Minneapolis and Duluth repor ed receipts of 284 cars, which with local re- celpts of §i cars, 13 of ‘contract grade, made a total for the three potnts of 345 cars, ainst 310 last week and ear ago. Tt of the early strength in corn was due to sympathy with wheat. Upcertainty as to'the effect of the heavy fains west and fears of cold weather to follow were also influential factors. Timid shorts covered freely and held prices at a good advance for a time, but when wheat weakened, corn prices eased off and the lose was but rually, rognined at tho close. Beptember Bhisned 140 higher at oic, after ranging be- tween 60%c and 6l%c. December sold from §i%o down to Sike, closing with & gain of W&o ut Bigeine, Commission houses led the buying.

Dealings in Stocks Smaller Than for Amy Time in Three Years, NEW YORK, Aug. 27.—Dealings in stocks were smaller today than for morg than three years past, the aggreggtes dealings reaching only about 150,00 shares. Tradiig by room professionals made up the eniire market. They attempted in the early deal- ings to comtinue ycsierday's downw.ard course and succeedéd to the extent of a point in o few prominent, stocks. Cover: ng of shorts beiore the end of the day caused a practical recovery of the declines and the, market closed dull and heavy and niot appreciably changed from last night's level, The dwindling in the trade was due to the yacht races, many brokers belng present at the races. The preliminary annual _statement of Erie, showing nearly 4 per cent earned on the common stock, nccorded closely with expectations and 'resulted in profit taking sales, which carried the price at one time a point under last night. Disap- pointment over this movement reflected depression at other points in the market. Fhe news of the murder of a Uniled States vice consul in Turkey was assignod as the motive for some selling here for London account, but the Incident awakened little apprehensfon in our own market, where it was assumed (he Turkish gov- ernment would make all the reparation de- manded. The day's weather map, was re- rded as unfavorable for grain Bome selling . orders attributed to Phil: adelphia account were commonly Suppo to be due to the exigencies of the coming reorganization of the Consolidated Lake Superior company. fron and steel were distinctly more cheer- ful and indicated a growing demand at the concessions now ruling. Forelgn banking houses continued to make loans here in #pite of the Jarge with- drawals of gold from the Bank of England, This had the effect of causing a somewhat easler tone in the time money market. No large interfor demand for currency is yet evident, while in the week ending Aug- ust 30 of last_year there were large trans- fera both to New Orleans and to Chicago Previous to that week last yoar there had been the usual assurances that western bank reserves were so large that a small requirement on eastern reserves was prob- able. But for thé week ending August 3, New York bank reserves dezlined $3.06340 On September 6 there was an additional shrinkage of $8,793.8%. On Eeptember 13 the decrease was $7.(80.00) and on Septem ber 30 a further decrease of $7.381.70 with a defielt below the legal recerve qf $1,642,050. Fiis dccurred notwithstanding a loan con traction from August 30 to fleph‘m!et of more than $22,000,000. THe severe e: rlence of this precedent, more than an Ihing clse. has prompted the conserv_tiv and cautious attitude of the New York banks recently and although the usual movement of currency to the interlor ia now expected, the opinion ts growing that the banks have so carsfully provided for it that they will be able t3 meet require- ments without a severe strain on the money market.

Ec/Victoria L 41/ Winona 26 (Wolverine , Cotton Market. NEW YORK, Aug. 27.—The cotton mar- ket opened steady at unchanged prices to an advance of 2 points on all positions ex- cept December, which was 1 point lower. The steadiness was due to rather better Liverpool cables than expected, but while these continue to show stabllity, favorable weather encouraged heavy reailzing, and almost immediately the whole list turned weak, with prices showing a net decll) of from 8 to 12 points. The crop news from private sources, however, was not conflicting, notwithstanding the excellent weather, and more was heard as to th damage done by the boll weevil in Texas. These influences, in connection with the continued steadiness at Liverpool and the delayed mivement, restricted selling, and as offerings became less insistent the bulls became less aggressive to the support of the market, forcing in the shorts and ad- yancing prices. The advance in the mar- ket, ich for the first hour or so had| been very active, quieted down considera- bly, and orders from outside sources were Iimited, leaving the entire burden of sup- porting the market to the clique. Towards the middle of the afternoon the buying of theso interests let down, and the room was rendered rather bearish by the good weather, turned to the short side, impart- ing a declining tendency, which' was | creased later as selling became more gen- eral with rumors circulating that the clique were unloading. The close was at prac- tically the lowest of the session and easy in tone at & net decline of 2@3 points. Re- celpts of new crop cotton today, 157 bales.

The cow market was not quite as good as it was #esterday. Some of the choicest bunches did not suffer to any greut extent, but the general run of cows sold generally a dime lower. Buyers did not seem to care much for cows today, so salesmen finally had to take the prices offered. Bulls, veal calves and stags did not com- mand Any more than ateady prices.

A mass meeting of citizens of Omahu, South Omaha, Council Bluffs and the ter- ritory immediately surrounding them prob ably will be called within the next week (o protest against any more postponements of the grocers' and butchers' plenic. The Federation of Improvement (lubs probably will take the lead in the matter, @a the clubs forming the federation, and the iIndividual members of them, are eui- phatic In expressing trelr sentiments on the matter. It necessary, Judge Sla baugh, who is president of the federation, may be asked to issue an injunction. 1t is stated that he has declared no petition will be necessary, as he can take officlal and Judicfal cognizance of existing conditims and of the baneful effects of setting dutes for grocers’ and butchers' picnics. The Commercial club and Real Estate exchange, on account of the general dam- age done to all professional, commercial and agricultural interests, will second the call for the mass meeting. The Auditorium directory also will join in the call, on the score that the picnic is serfously delaying work on the Auditorium. Other organi- zations, including the churches, on the soore of morality, and especially in the in- teresta of the crusade against profanity, will join in the call OfMcers Are Mum. Officers of the association decline to dfs- cuss the matter in any way or to make any defense. They admit that on and fmme- diately preceding the first date set for the pienic the heavens opened and flooded the picnie grounds with three feet of water, and did considerable damage in the sur- rounding country; that on and just previous to the second date Omaha and 'vicinity was flooded, and that on and just previous to the third date met for the plonic, not only Omaha and the picnic grobnds, but everything between them, includin; railroads, were flooded. It ia further re- called by some of those active in prepa for a mass meeting of citizens that thi not the first year that announcement: dates for grocers' picnics have bro about convulsions of nature. About seventy-five grocers and butchers and an unoounted number of small bov~ straggled into the Unlon depot betweel, and 9 yesterday morning and inquired f¢ plenic trains. They expressed surprise when told that the plenic had been pest- poned and were not satisfied until told that all communication by rail with Mis- sour! Valley had been cut off since Wednes- day evening and would not be renewed until a time then unknown. Even then the small boys were not satisfied, but loudly demanded that they be allowed to go to the plenic, for which they had been given tickets. Many of the grocery stores and butcher shops did not open yesterday, whil others were doing business as usual. Later, when it became known that no plenic was being held, the others opened. But it was not a pleasant task to interview thém, and unless some measures are taken by the officers to square themselves the two us- soclations may be reorganized—that fs, if they do not go to pleces as a result of the plenic pgstponements.
