NEW YORK, July 22._To-day’s stock mar- ket was not up to the recent level of activ- ity, the total dealings falling considerably be- iow the million-share mark. This was prac- | tically the only effect apparcnt from the doubts aroused by the current outward move- ment of gold. The speculative forces recently at work continued operations on a large scale, although shifting the field of their operations to new quarters. The Eastern railroad stocks led by New York Central were the features of the market “the Reading stocks being included in the movement. The buying was by the brokers usually employed of late by the West- ern coptingent in its large operations, The ostensible basis of the buying was the ru- | mor of new and comprehensive _agreements among the railroad rowers in the Eastern teg- ritory, including the Pennsylvania Railroad, the Vanderbilts and Mr. Morgan, With the addition of striking gains by &_miscellaneous &roup of stocks, the market made a fair show of strength. The grain carricrs were inclined 10 heaviness early owing to reports of showers in the Western States, but they stiffened up afterward apparently under the influence of the Peaches are a little late in ripening, owing to cool nights, but there will be a good crop, nt in quality.

It s noteworthy that the sub-Treacury here pald out upward of §500.000 to-lay of assay office checks on ac- count of Klondike gold received at Seattle and San Francisco, thus. affording a considerable offset to the withdrawals of gold for exports. The running deflcit in the Government reve- nues continues to be disbursed into the money market, thus relieving bank reserves from all requirements on that account.

Market. i | ! | | CHICAGO, July 22.—There was marked variance between the slumping provisions mar- ket to-day and the highly manipulated condi- conditions. Trade in provisions, although not | heavy, was almost panicky at times to-day. | Hogs at the Stock Yards have been marketed | much more frecly of late, tempted by high | prices. To-day prices slumped to a figure 30 | cents under last Friday's prices. Buyers were | very bearish and as a result the temper in the | provisions pit and prices were easily influenced. | The outsider who took on a good load during | the recent spurt has grown quite tired of the | burden. General liquidation, which set in to some extent yesterday, was very marked to- day. There was vigorous trading on the part | of “the professionals. ‘Packers seemed to have | abandoned their pet market until toward the | close, “when & little stuff was taken to stop the | decl] Beptember pork, which opened 21,@0c | lower at $17 80@17 95, piunged down to $17 25 | and closed 70c lower at $17 50. September lard | opened 713@10c down at $10 723, sold at $10 80 and then broke to $10 50, closing very weak, 235c lower. Septembér ribs opened 7i4@1214¢ down at $10 60@10 65, s0ld at $10 20 and closed weak, 423¢ lower at $10 25, Wheat was very strong, in spite of a per- ceptible carly break, influenced by good wea ther, easy receipts 'and easy opening cables. Immediately upon the break a demand sprang up that frightened the shorts into covering as speedily as possible. Rains were predicted, statistics were bullish and the low grading of { the wheat coming to hand were bullish incen- tives. Possibly as much as anything to put | gimp into September wheat was the gossip that a leading packer was taking control of that option. Trade was good and the close was strong and near top prices.

Offerings of Potatoes are too large for the local market to absorb and there is very little 4nquiry for shipping. Three cars were shipped to the Southwest yesterday, but at a low fig- ure, and there are no more orders from that section at. present. Continued heavy receipts from the river have caused a great accumulation on the wharves and a consequent slump in prices. Burbanks, that were carried over from the previous day, Were s0ld as low as 25c per box or sack. Onions were plentiful and unchanged. Green Corn was offered freely and met with reacy sale. Choice offerings in ‘crates were higher. Tomatoes were plentiful and pric of small boxes declined.

The improvement is due to the decreasing receipts, which are now hardly equal to the normal demand for city and nearby orders. There are no shipping or- ders of any consequence on the market. Cheese rules firm at the quotations. = Spot llll'l;pllu are moderate, though there is no scar- city. Eggs have again gone up. Some dealers even quote as high at 25c, though this figure is too extreme for a flat quotation. Some dealérs are, willing to see the market go up, for when the price gets above 25c they will be able to begin to work off their supply in store, and th storage stock is remarkably large. Others, as previously mentioned, apprehend a decrease in the demand If the market goes beyond 25c. Receipts were 49,700 pounds 2 kegs and 27 cubes of Butter, — pounds of Eastern Butter, 864 cases of Eggs, —— cases of Eastern Eggs, 8900 pounds of California Cheese, —— pounds of Oregon Cheese and —— pounds of Eastern Cheese.

The status of stocks, according to Bradstreet's, is as follows: East of the Rockies, an increase of 327,000 bushels Europe and afloat, a decrease of 2,305,000; net decrease, 1,078,000 bushels. Chicago advanced lc. The local feeling was bearish on increasing movement and poor qual- ity of the grain harvesting in the Northwest, While the advance was due to the meager quan- tity offered for sale. Stocks are well exhausted and the selling pressure is exclusively from the bears. In this market futures advanced, but there was no change in cash quotations.
