EASTERN MARKETS. o 1 | | # *| New York Stock Market. NEW YORK, Aug. 12—The dominating fac- tors In the stock market continue to be the | coming crops and the money outlook. Crop news was exceedingly satisfactory to-day, both that of the monthly report of the Agricultural Department and the later current news of the Weather Bureau, but it is to be borne in mind that the speculation for some time past has been diligently discounting good crops, which have been clearly foreshadowed. On the other | hand, the autumn. demand for money, while it hos been expected and has been made the subject of industrious warn¥ags, has been ig- mored 'in speculation. This week's rise in money rates, therefore, would naturally be of most eflect in speculative conditions. Buyers, in anticipation of g0od crops, seeing the dan- ger of a flurry in the money market, which might force liquidation of stocks, and attract- ed by the high level to which prices have attained, are tempted to sell to realize their profits. * There was considersble strength at one time to-day, and in & few cases it con- tinued to the close, but for the most part the garly rise In prices was taken advantage of to realize ts, and the general prices ended lower than last night. There was a further contraction, also, in' the volume cf the dealings, which dropped back again below half a million ehares.” Unofficial - estimates on to-day’s Government reports indicate a_wheat barvest of over 652,000,000 busheis. This is nearly 100,000,000 bushels below the crop of last year, but has never been exceeded except by the erop of 1808. s for the corn crop, to-day’s Government figures indicated a yield the largest in the history of the country. This had its effect among the Southwestern Grangers, especially emong the Gould group: Another striking show of strength was made by Baltimore and Ohio. Among the returns of railroad gross earnings for the first week of August, Chesa- peake and Ohio shows a decrease of $108,553, compared with Tast year, and Missour! Pacific s earnings for the same period declined $28,000, The two Eroups of ralloads in which ' the rongest stocks are were thus handicapy by this unfavorable influence. o As for the money market, the rate for call loans averaged more nearly 4 per cent than the 3 per cent, which was the maximum to-day. Time loans and commercial paper showed a. hardening tendency as well, five and six | months’ loans on good mixed stock exchange collateral ruling at b per cent. The rise in money rates, however, had a perceptible effect upon forelgn exchange rates, which receded a fracticn, and tentative plans for -further ship- ments of gold this week were abandoned. The currency movement seems to be still in favor of New York. Exchange at Chicago remained at a permium of 20 cents ‘to-day. Another developrient was an increased export demand for grain, which held the market firm, in spite of the crop report, and made some exchange. The United States Treasury operations are also showing a continued deficit, the excess of ex- penditures thus far this month exceeding. $1,- 500,000, while for the same period last year re- ceipts ‘were more than $000,000 in excess of expenditures. This affords some;relief to the money market, but the beginning of the interior demand for currency is awaited, nevertheless, with anxiety. The bond market was dull and the Central of Georgia incomes were weak. Total sales (par value), $1,380,000. United States bonds were all unchanged on the last call. NEW YORK STOCK LIST, Stocks— Low.

SR R T L R CHICAGO, Aug. 12.—A. revival of bull con- fdence and fear on the part of the bears put through a heavy business in wheat. The general impression vrevailed that the end of the bear campaign had set in yesterday, and strangely enough the low prices of this cam- paign had come before the Government re- port. Usually a Government report is followed by depression. The case was different to-day. Whereas the estimate of a spring and winter wheat crap of about 750,000,000 bushels had gained credence, the Government suggested only 620,000,000 bushels. Foreign markets gave the report a bullish interpretation and sent higher quotations, and the Northwest had lighter receipts. Primary receipts were heavy, the weather was good and ordinary conditions were bearish as before the report. Coarse grains, however, also had an upturn, the sell- ing was almcst nothing and buying for the support of September was 50 Vigorous that shorts bid prices up hurriedly. New York and St. Louls were in the market heavily on the buying side and there was a good commis- sion demand all day. There were* several lapses from high prices on the advance, but the close was near the top figure. Gradin shows but little improvement and the I contract stocks are fast disappearing. ~ Sep- tember opened % @%c to }o@%c higher at (7% @67%e, sold to 00¢, and closed strong, 1%c higher, at 69c. Corn ghowed much strength, partly because the Government report showed one per cent re- duction since July 1. but principally on heavy covering by a great many shorts, who secured handsome profits. The market was influenced by frosts, very small receipts and the strength in wheat. Sentember sold as low as 50%c and jumped to 52%c, closing strong, 1%0 up, at B21,c. \Recelnts were only sixty-two cars, ‘There was no influential buying in oats, but prices responded quickly to the bullish sentl- ment in the other pits. September closed firm, 1@1%c up, at 30@30%c. 549 ‘cars. Provisions were frregular, The demand was not heavy, but buying orders came in suffi- clent quantities to put good strength in the market. Several reactions occurred, but the grain strength held the price up. September pork closed 30c up, lard unchanged and ribs 223c up.
