NEW YORK, July 25.—The Commercial Ad- vertiser's Tondon financial cablegram says: The markets here were firm and quiet to-day. while Westralian mines were buoyant. Ameri cans opened hard, the strikes being disregarded, but the business done amounted to very little. The close was fractionally higher on New York buving. Montreal bought Canadian Pacific and | Berlin sold. Money at the close was unlendable. Bills, however, were hard. The bank is feel- ing its way to tight rates by borrowing gold. It bought £20,00 gold in bars and £35000 in German coin. Forty-four thousand poun rived from Austria and £20,000 was taken for South America. CLOSING.

CHICAGO GRAIN MARKET, CHICAGO, July An estimate of 225,000,- | 000 bushels as the probabie yield of the spring crop in Minnesota and the two Dakotas started | wheat rather easy. September opened ¥%c lower at 70%@70%4c, advanced slowly to 70%c, then declined to 70%c. A report from Paris that the French crop this year would equal that of a year ago had a depressing influence during the first two hours' trading. After that, howeyer, | the market took a sudden upturn and continued Frome unul the close, Seotember advanced to %o and closed at 71%@7i%c. The change of sentiment was brought about by a flood of damage reports from the Northwest, some of them placing the injury already done spring The smailness of rimary Western receipts, amounting to only 75,000 bushels, was also an inspiration to the bulls to-day, for the first time in several weeks Dbeing less than for the same day last year. Liquidation, owing to heavy receipts, weakened corn, but the loss was more than recovered later by buying against puts in sympathy with the advance in wheat. Crop reports were less romising than heretofore and country offer- ngs extremely small. September closed with Oats followed other grains, opening at the low voint, and closing at the top. Reports from varfous sections say that the new crop | 1s running to straw. September gained lc. Provisions openéd firm, but collapsed under free selling by packers and commission houses. | This latter seiling was principally on stop-loss orders. Part of the decline was recovered in sympathy’ with the advance in grains. Pork lost 12%%c for September, lard be to 7%c, and ribs 2%c. The leading futures ranged Articles— Wheat No. July . Open.
