At the close Sep- tember wheat was up 1}3@1%ec. Corn and vats sach gained 4c and provisions 7ijo to 15c. - Sentiment in the wheat pit was decidedly | bullish at the start as & result of an attempt on the part of shorts to cover July sales. The cause of the urgent demand was a report that a large quantity of wheat in private elevators Which shorts had expected to deliver on July contracts had been rejected by the inspection department. This necessitated bidding for grain in the pit. There was little for sale and | in consequence the price was forced over 1lic above yesterday’s closing quotations. The me- tion of the July option gave support to the distant deliveries, September opening at a_gain of %c to Yo at S9%Kc to S9%e. Toward the end of the first hour the market eased off somewhat on profit taking, September being down to 89@S9ic. The reaction, however, was short lived, Alarm over the European political situation, allayed early in the day by a rise in English Consols, was stirred up | afresh by a subsequent sharp decline in those | securities. About the sa.ne time re- Southwest and Northwest be- causing additional anxiety A report that Northwest coun- ports from the gan coming in, from now on caused a renewed buying. An increased as did also numercus advices claiming a decrease in re- ceipts at that point. On the bulge that fol- lowed September advanced to 90%c. but part of the gain was again lost on realizing. The market, however, closed strong with September at 904 @90%e. Strength of wheat was the main factor af- fectine the corn market, although there was some purchasing for long account late in the session on rumors of a possible European war. The market closed near the high point of the day. September opened unchanged to Yo higher at 49%@4915c. sold between 40%c and 49%.@40%c, and closed at 49%c. The feature in trading in oats was an ad- vance of 13c in the price of the July option. September opened unchanged to a shade lower at 33c to 33%ec. sold between 32%@33c and 33%c and closed at 33, @33%c. Provisions took on fair strength owing to moderate purchases by brokers for the ac- count of prominent packers. Trading, how- ever, was still very quiet.

There are in- | dications of an {mpending change in the mar- | Ket, for some dealers who have hitherto been | very weak have turned firm and are quoting a steadier market. especially for the finer cream- ery brands. Others. however. who are | carrying_excessive stocks, find the market as | depressed as ever and are sesking buyers. The | demand for interior points is very falr, as usual at this time of the year. Cheese continues in large supply and quiet at_previous prices, are unchanged. Current receipts about balance the demand, which is not over brisk at_the moment.

Deciduous and Citrus Fruits. The fruit market was heavily supplied with | most kinds of emall tree frults and was de- | | cidedly weak for general offerings. Fine shi ping Plums were scarce and in demand for e port to morthern ports at 7#90c per cra but the market was overloaded with soft a otherwise poor frult, which dragged badly at per crate. There was a good export demand for other fruits, but supplies were t00 heavy to permit any advance in prices. Peaches were a glut on the ket and It was difficult to obtain over 50c box for nything but the fanciest shipping stock. Apricots were in increased supply and neglect. ed by the regular trade, the previous hl(h1 prices having checked the demand. The bulk | of the receipts went to the canners at the | quotations, and some poor lots could be bought for less. Pears were steady at about previous | prices, with the canners purchasing freely at | | the quotations. The canners were also in the | market for Peaches and secured quite a quan- | tity at $20@30 per ton. Figs were easler under more liberal offerings and Cantaloupes . and Nutmeg Melons were abundant and weak. Grapes were dull, as general offerings lacked sweetness and the top rates were obtained only for small parcels of selected shipping stock. Blackberries were weak at irregular prices, while other Berries were in good request and | | steady.
