The damage to wheat was not £0 great, owing to the fact that much of it was too green to be badly shattered, although the green wheat was knocked down, the heads whipped off and the straw broken in numerous places in different parts of the State. Fruit also suffered guite extensivel, many apples were blown off the trees and even the trees fhemselves were in some cases blown down, The damage to fruit was grestest in the Wil- ette Valley and the coast count erals to the hop vines were torn aw = more exposed places the poles were blown In the case of cut hay (h later recovered ¥ good condition, and the damage to the by the windstorm did not amount to much.

Ripe grain, fruit, hops and cut hay were | The hay | ments and very heavy dealings in some of the | present high-priced stocks were the character- istics of tosday’'s stock market. There was large realizing at intervals, both from the stocks which moved upward to-day and in oth- ers which previously advanced. The industrials and the low-priced railroad stocks played only a small part in the market, the high-priced standard stocks traversing ail portions of the country being in the van of all the day’s move- ments. The grangers, the Pacifics, the South- ern trunk lines and the Eastern trunk lines all had their turn in the dav's| activities. The bulls had the advantage of con- | | tinuing satisfactory conditions of the crops, of industrial activity and of the money market, but the effective factors in the day's dealing were rumors of great financial operations look- ing to the harmonizing and consolidation of the | control of the great raflroad systems of the | country. All of these were more or less vague and none of them was accorded open or official sanction. That regarding Rock Island was the most clearly defined and it was noticeable that | that stock, with something like explicit infor- mation to go upon, fell out of the forefront of | the trading and failed to maintain all of ye terday’s advance. There was authoritative 1 | timation also that another large railroad sys- | | tem is to be absorbed, the prevailing beliet pointing to St. Louis and San Francisco. Asser- tios that Atchison was to be taken over were effectively denied. Rumors continued thick concerning St. Paul, the one assigning it to the Union Pacific being the most persistent, but without any authentic countenance. An incident of the day was a flerce rald on | Western Tnion, which forced it down over three | points by half-point drops. The stock closed at | & rally of a point. There is promise of a gain | in cash reserves of over a million dollars by | the banks to-morrow, in spite of the week's ex- ports of gold, the receipts on balances from the interfor and the excess of disbursements by the Sub-Treasury having more than offset the ex- ports. The item of loans, however, is beyond the power of computation. The market closed | yery irregular, but with a few stocks at the | top. Bonds were firm“to-day.

The best advices come from the Northwest and Southwest. Fall trade in dry goods promises to be late. A further improvement is, however, moticed In shoes and leather and wool is again higher in price, despite manufacturers holding back buy- ing. Among the Industries, iron and steel are easily first in activity, and relief from the so- called pigiron famine is sought in freer im- portations. - The fruit season is now in ‘full | swing and sugar consumption is at its full and promises to be very heavy. Anthracite coal has reached the pinnacle and produce is stili high despite flattering crop prospects. Range | cattle and Texas hides have surpassed all records. Coffee drags painfully owing to exist- | ing large stocks and good Brazil crop condi- tions. As indlcative of the activity of wide- spread directicns, it 18 noted by Western hard- | ware men that there would be no dull season this year. Rallroad earnings show gains of over 5 per cent 5o far for July, and bank cléar- ings have begun to show thr galns earlier pre- dicted over last year's totals, reduced as they Were by hot weather. Crop reports to Bradstreet's are especlally good from the Southwest, where corn and cot- ton have been favored by good growing weather. Wheat, including flour, exports for the week ending July 2+ ageregate 3,080,000 bushels, { against 3,775,222 bushels last week and 6,974, 206 in this week last year. Wheat exports since July 1 aggregate 15,765,306 bushels, ~against 18,377,637 last season. i “Business failures for the week ending July 24 number 178, as against 174 last week, 190 in this week last year, 183 in 1900, 170 in 1809 | and 180 In 1808, For this week Canadian fail- ures number 16, as against 17 last week and 32 | in the same week last vear. Dun’s Review of Trade.” |i{ *: % NEW YORK, July 25—R. G. Dun & Co.'s | weekly review of trade to-morrow will say: Each day brings the agricultural products of | the nation nearer maturity and as the possi- | bility of any serious injury becomes smaller the | feeling of confidence in fully sustained trade | grows stronger. Railway stocks rose to a new | high-record price and gold was exported; yet | money ruled easy. July oats succeeded corn as the leading speculative cereal, but all’ dis- | tant grain options tended lower as. the outlook | improved. The heavy djetribution of merchans reported for July 23 per cent. larger- than last year and 20 per cent In excess of the corr | sponding period of 1900. Insufficlent fuel is | the one serious difficulty In the iroh and steel | indstry. ‘ootwear factories have returned to almost full operation, contracts coming forward freely frol wholesalers at the large centers. There 18 less activity in the speculative mar- kets for the leading cereals, yet prices were fairly well maintalned. Meats were somewhat weaker on larger receipts and smaller export buying. Among the other staples coffee con- tinues active and firm despite the statistical situation.

July new oats were absorbed by the bull leaders at as high as 71 | cents in order to keep them from the shorts. While oats Were selling in drib lots at fancy figyres, September wheat was around T13c and the hitherfo fancy July corn at something under 67c. In general, however, it may be | sald the July corners were resting. Shorts in wheat, corn and oats in that month seemed In the end September wheat closed %@ '%c down, September corn %c lower, July corn 1%c lower; September oats 3%@%c lower, and July oats %c higher. Provisions were irreg- ular and closed 12%@17%e¢ lower. Wheat worked lower on the influence of low- er cables and good weather. Corn reports con- tinued favorable and receipts bore out state- ments as to quantity, although the grading was very poor. The foreign market weakness, together with the excellent crop report, set to undermine the confidence of holders. ~ The strike of telegraph messengers, which spread to the floor of the exchange, interfered with business and had its modicum of bearish in- fluence.
