WHEAT UP AGAIN, SEPTEMBER TOUCHING 62& c
Continued Strength in Corn and Bad
Southwestern Reports Affect
the Market.
CLEARANCES OVER 800,000 BU
The Government Report Moderately
Bullish—General Kewi of .
the Day
Minneapolis Chamber of Commerce, July 11.
—The upturn that started in wheat yesterday
■was continued this morning. By noon Sep
tember sold at 62%®62%c, a gain of l@l%c
over last night's close, and December gained
%@lc, selling to 64%@64%c.
The same influences that brought the first
recovery of yesterday were the cause of the
second gain. The government report came
in as a factor, but its Importance was less
ened In part by the run of news from the
southwest and other items as to present actu
al conditions. Corn was again on the ad
vance, and oats were very strong. The south
west has praotlcally no relief from the very
hot and dry weather. For the southwest pre
dictions are for fair weather. The forecast
for Minnesota and the Dakotas 1b for showers.
The government report makes winter wheat
M.S and spring wheat 95.6. On the total crop
the condition was 91-1 on July 1. On the
corresponding date last year the general con
dition was 69»8 and two years ago 76.2. The
report is generally taken as indicative of a
total wheat crop of about 600,000,000 bu. Re
serves In farmers' hands are estimated at
about 31.000,000 bu.
The Price Current says the corn promise
U lowered by the southwestern drought, and
the outlook U now about 10 per cent under
last year. With no further injury from now
on, an average production Is possible. Spring
■fcheat is said to be moderately Impaired.
Foreign crop sews was unfavorable, but
foreign markets showed little change In con
sequence thereof. . Paris cabled that the
French government report is bullish on wheat
and that oats are also vej-y poor. Antwerp
cabled that a large portion of the Russian
oats crop has been destroyed. A later Paris
cable said France -will need to import 80,000,
--000 bu of wheat. Paris closed 5 centimes
lower and 5@16 centimes lower on flour.
Antwerp was unchanged. Liverpool closed
*t to %d "higher.
Primary reoelpts were 665,000 bu and ship
ments 314,000 bu, compared with 482,000 bu
And 197,000 ton lost year. Wheat and flour
clearances, 823,000 bu, corn 331,000 bu. Min
neapolis received .227 oars and Duluth 74,
against 14$ and 12 last year.
September corn opened unchanged from
yesterday, at 43% c. and -was strong end ac
tive from the start, selling up to 4£>%c.
The market closed on slight recession from
the high points but firm and active to the
end. September wheat closed at 62%@62%c;
December, 63% c; July, 63c. September corn
closed 46%0; July corn, 43% c.
There was good demand for cash wheat la
the better grades and a fairly satisfactory
demand all through. The basis remained un
changed at lc to lVfcc over September for No.
northern. This grade sold to arrive at 63M>c.
Choice spot No. 1 brought 645. No. i north
ern sold on a range of 61% cto 62% c, averag
ing around 62c. No, 3 was salable at 59@
610. Not much rejected wheat was seen in
the offerings. This grade sold from 64c to
69c, and no grade, 50c to 57c.
THE FLOUR MARKET
Reaction Results—Advance In "Wheat
Shutting: Off Sales.
Millers report that the upturn in wheat
has operated, contrary to ordinary expecta
tion, to make trade light for the present,
and bring reaction from the good demand
previously ruling. Not much business was
done to-day in the aggregate, either for do
mestic account or for foreign shipment. Buy
ers are disposed to wait for possible reaction
rather than follow on any upturn. A fair
amount of foreign business was offered this
morning, but on a basis too low, and much
of it was declined.
Shipments were 53,555 brls.
First patents are quoted $3.5503.05; second
patents, $3.35@3.45; first clears, $2.60@2.70;
second clears, $2.

SOUTH DAKOTA WHEAT
Some -Shrinkage Camed by Heat in
Grant County.
Specials to The Journal.
Milbank, S. D., July 11.—Owing to the hot
weather crop conditions have declined from
5 'to 10 per cent, except corn, which has
improved. There has been no positive dam
age to wheat, but it beiug more or less in
the milk there has been some shrinkage. The
yield will vary in different parts of the
country. East, south and west of Milbank
present conditions promise an average of from
10 to 12 bushels, while north, in the vicinity
of Corona, the average will be all of 15
bushels and perhaps better. So It is fair
to say that at this time the average on wheat
for Grant county promises 12 bushels. Rye,
barley and oats are very good, but flax will
not be a big crop. Potatoes are doing finely,
and hay is heavy. Corn is looking fine.
Aberdeen, S. D., July 11.—Crop conditions
continue to be first-class in this locality.
While the weather has been extremely*warm,
little or no complaint is heard from farm
ers. The main anxiety now is the threatened
scarcity of help to harvest the bumper crop.
Farmers aro appealing to the'cities to see
that they are supplied with men.
Lanesboro, Minn., July 11.—The hay harvest
is in full blast and the crop will be rather
light. Farmers report prospects for good
yields of wheat and barley. Chinch bugs
have damaged some fields of barley, but only
in spots.
Faribault, Minn., July 11.—Farmers are be
coming much alarmed at the depredations of
chinch bugs, -which are working in many
localities, more especially about Cannon City
and Shieldsville, where whole fields have been
ruined by these pests.
Mapleton, Minn., July 11.—Crops are prac
tically unchanged from last week, except that
chinch bugs are working in the grain along
the timber. The heads are filling in good
shape and it would not be surprising if some
wheat was ready to cut the latter part of
next week. Barley harvest is in full blast

New York Cotton.
New York, July 11.—{Jotton opened steady,
unchanged to 3 points higher, and immediate
ly hardened on a scare of shorte, an Influx
of foreign buying orders and brisk southern
buying. Prices shot up to B@ll points over
last night's closing bids, with August at 7.80 c,

ing strength of the market originated in bull
ish cables from Liverpool, reports that the
Texas rains were confined to a narrow space
on the coast near Galveston and claims that
hot winds were sweeping down over central

were the rule. Later the market gave way
to selling for both accounts, started b|- official
Texas rain news, the latter being for yester
day, and nearly all fell along the coast. About
midday the advance had been cut down to a
matter of I@4 points, with the felling weak.

INDIAN JAIL BREAKERS
Recaptured on tbe White Earth at
Revolver's Point.
Special to The Journal.
Fergus Falls, Minn., July 11.—Sheriff
Sawyer returned from the White Earth
reservation to-day, bringing with him the
two Indiana who recently escaped from the
county jail. They were found hiding in
a small shack, and their friends threat
ened to make trouble if they were rear
rested. Several Indians blocked the en
trance to the shack and refused the of
ficers admission until the latter presented
their guns.
The Fourth of July committees met last
evening and found that they had a nice
surplus on hand after paying all expen
ses. There is still a consignment of
fireworks on hand, the display having been
cut short by the storm, and these will be
discharged on the evening of July 18, a
game of baseball and horse races being
arranged for that date. The committees
voted unanimously to celebate the Fourth
again next year, and the surplus funds
will be put away as a nucleus.
The enrollment at the summer training
school has reached 198.
She—l don't see why Clara has so many
admirers. She can't epeak a word of French
and neither sings nor paints.
He—Well. I suppose that is the reason.
STOCKS FALL DOWN
Heavy Blocks Are Thrown Upon
the Market.
BAD BREAK IN THE WHOLE LIST
Group* of Financial Giant* Re
ported to Be on the Point
of a (ullislon.
New York, July v —The selling movement
of yesterday afternoon continued tn force at
the opening this morning and heavy blocks
of prominent stocks were thrown upon the
market. The opening sales of Atohison and
United States Steel were 5,000 shares and of
Southern Pacific 3,000 shares. Losses were
about a point !n Atehison, Southern Pacific,
Missouri Pacific, Louisville and Ontario &
Western. American Smelting declined 1%.
There was evidence of support in Union Pa
cific, which opened down a % and immedi
ately rallied % and prices were inclined to
harden elsewhere after the opening.
While a few stocks got above yesterday's
close, numerous others broke badly, including
a 7% point drop in Hock Island. The entire
list broke badly later on heavy liquidation
in western and Pacific stocks. Losses ranged
from 2 to 5 points in the most active stocks
and speculation was very ragged.
Covering caused rebounds of 4 points in
Atchison and Rock Island. Recoveries gen
erally ranged between 1 and 2 points. The
market weakened again before noon, St. Paul,
United States Steel, New York Central, Erie,
Baltimore & Ohio, Chesapeake & Ohio and
Southern Railway touched lower prices than
before. Ther* were losses of 3 to 4 points In
Lackawanna, Delaware & Hudson, General
Electric and Chicago & Eastern Illinois. The
market rallied rather quickly and became
quiet.
The buying movement gained some anima
tion during the noon hour and caused strong
rallies in the prominent stocks. St. Paul
scored a full recovery. Missouri Pacific was
lifted more than a point over last .light, and
United States Steel a fraction. Losses in the
leaders generally were reduced to fractions.
There were some reactions again before 1
o'clock.
Prices moved feverishly on small dealings,
but concessions were speedily made up and
the general tone was much improved. Some
stocks went higher than on the previous ral
ly. Brooklyn Transit rose 1% over last night
and the other New York stocks hardened in
sympathy.
The market made another substantial ad
vance in the last hour, bringing many im
portant stocks well above last night. Real
izing caused a renewed break of 2 to 2% in
Atchison, St. Paul, Union Pacific and Rock
Island, other stocks yielding a point or more.
The prices hardened again. The closing was
unsettled and irregular, with renewed de
clines in some of the active stocks.
Bonds were dull and irregular.

INVESTMENT GOSSIP
Waldorf gossip to Watson: Current events
tend to sustain the recently developed theory
that the heaviest capitalists are apathetic,
and that, while they are undoubtedly buying
stock on scale-down, their program does not
involve any concerted action on the long
side just now. As the head of a large Stand
ard Oil stock bouse remarked to the writer,
legitimate conditions are good, but technical
factors, such as the absence of the public
and the vacation period and the indifference
of substantial interests, paint to a narrow
speculation temporarily and to sagging prices.
Morgan is believed to be about the only big
railroad capitalist active, and is doing every
thing In his power to settle labor troubles and
other serious problems. Watchers say that,
incidentally, he is supporting his specialties,
and the heavy loans made on cal this week by
the Bank of Commerce are looked on as
having a significant bearing on the position
of the Morgan interest. On the other band,
the big City Bank, a Standard Oil institution,
is said to be not only averse to ease In money
but takes every opportunity to discomfort
borrowers by severely scrutinizing collateral
and facilitating at all times the export of
gold.
Verhoeff, from Milmine: "London prices
lower. Gossip says bearish sentiment too
general for safety. Yesterday's break caused
by exaggerated damage reports. Price* mty
be lower at opening, but should be bought
for sharp rally. Failure directors Louisville
& Nashville to declare extra dividend used as
a pretext to sel that stock.
New York to C. E. Lewis _ Co.: "Hold
overs are sometimes nervous. Then, con
sidering the pounding the bears hare given
the market during the past day or so, they
might have reason to be. The lack of pub
lice interest in the scarcity of money and
the general high level of prices are all fac
tors which tend to check enthusiasm. There
seems to be an absence of support from large
interests, and the market closed rather

Hides, Pelts, Tallow and Wool.
Andersch Brothers, Minneapolis say: The
hide market is strong and active at prices
K<SViC higher, according to quality and con
dition. Wool continues dragging, with a
5 to 15 per cent decline on the last London
auction sales. v American markets are not
much affected, but manufacturers -are less
Inclined to buy. Looking over the general
situation, we are led to believe that** there
will not be further decline in wool at present,
and probably no change of importance for
some time to come. Tallow shows no change
as to prices, but demand is less active.
