6 THURSDAY ON 'CHANGE Business Discouragingly Dull, with but Little Interesting News Worth Gossiping About, Yet There Was a Firmer Feeling, Which Is Accounted for in More Ways Than One. Little Business In Commercial Circles, But All Hope for a Busier Time Soon. Stocks Strons on tlie Probability of tlie Adjustment of the Trunk Line Troubles. Chicago. Bpocial to the Globe. Chicago, July 9.—The average trailer on 'change is getting in tho habit of looking upon himself as a pariioulurly tacky dog if lie gets home with $6.95 ahead as the re sult of the day's work, while brokers which depend largely on a sort of overliow busi ness, or get their orders from houses, who. for obvious reasons, wish to cover QB their tracks, are having a particularly hard time of it. Outside orders are ntting W scarce that the receipt of one attracts general at tention. Home business is so small and so unimportant that no necessity exists for do ing it in a very quiet manner. Members say the market must show signs of a good deal more life than it exhibits at present before "the country*' will come in to any great extent. Tannage's crop reports cut a figure at the opening to-day, which was very strong. It is claimed by that statis tician that there has been no improvement anywhere within the past ten days, md that the yield cannot exceed the estimate previously given, in many section- Of Minnesota serious damage is reported, and the Wisconsin thresh-out will not be more than 75 per cent of that of last year. In Kansas the rains are DTTEBFEBIVa SEBTOUBLY with the harvesting, and last, but by no means least, the one and only Prime has ascertained that the yield in Southern Illi nois will average from four to six bushels per acre. As if this were not enough, prices abroad were reported firm. August wheat started at B9j{Ci au advance of and quickly advanced to Xc, with Septem ber 2c higher. During the forenoon quite a large outside support was received, the granger having apparently become saiisiied that the prevailing rains were liable to cause great injury, and he made his appear ance by wire in quite large numbers in his natural character as a rampant bull. The change of tactics of some of the heavier dealers was* somewhat remarkable. Bliss, who yesterday was a bear with blood in both eyes, appeared as a bull with tail end and pawing the earth, and in his new role was ably supported by Driver. Lester «& Co. and Roche sold heavily through brokers. and Eldridge & Co. were reported quiet purchasers. Toward the close quite a weakening took place, occasioned princi pally by reports of cholera in France. though it was more on account of the belief that the market HAD BEEV OVERSOLD. The fear of the little fellows to hold over nieht is nearly as apparent as at the old board during the Russia war excitement, and like a drove of sheep they all wanted to get under cover at once, with the usual result of a break. Cash wheat was in exceedingly active demand at w}.ic bid, and there was a rumor afloat that it was being crowded up in order to affect the options. This, how ever, is undoubtedly a mistake, as millers assert an error lias occurred in the State ment of flour on hand and the grain is wanted for legitimate milling purposes. The close, at 1 o'clock.for July and August deliveries was about Jfc below that of yes terday afternoon, while for September and later deliveries prices were relatively some what better sustained. July wheat ruled at about 2, lie below August, which is no ticeable inasmuch as a third of the month lias nearly passed without proportionate re duction in the carrying charge, which re mains fully as high as at iis commence ment. Foreign advices were rather unfavorable, the feeling being represented as weak, with no demand. New York was dull, only one boat load having been sold for export. Reports of cholera in France TENDED TO WEAKEN the tone there, and, to some extent here also. This afternoon there was continued disposition to sell, and the market further declined %c, closing Bs3£c August, DO&c, September, 92}4c October. The decline for the day has oeen %c, with an unsettled and nervous feeling at close. Nothing definite is known concerning the regular monthly government report to be announced to-morrow, and the general expectation here is that it will show no important change from %iat of a month ago. Corn kept up its reputation for stability by continuing to hug the figures 4*7 through most of the early session. At the opening it was above that point, but soon sank back to its old, well-worn rut. Liver pool was steady on corn, but the amount on passage was repotted to be 00,000 quarters less than last week. The opening was slightly weaker, with more liberal selling by holders, and for current month delivery. The market fell off }-. 2 c as compared with that of yesterday afternoon. All deliveries show THE SAME DECLINE, and the feeling at the close of the morning session was tame, at about the inside prices touched. This weakness was carried into the afternoon session, prices at the close, of which were again fractionally lower and at the inside of the day, closing at 47c July, 4«% c August and September, 4G%c Octo ber. .Reports of the growing crop are fa vorable in all directions, and it is only a question of time when present prices will 60011 give way before the desire to realize on the part of holders, unless there is no old com in the country to be sent forward, which contingency is not accepted as prob able. Oats were held firmer, but the volume of business transacted was light. Prices were a shade higher for the near future, but unchanged for the long futures. No. 8 closed at 32c for July, 96J£c for August, and 25Xc for September. Provisions opened at a fraction above yesterday's closing for the long futures, but broke early on a sensational report of three cases of cholera iv Paris. The decline was only for a short time, however, and the lowest point reached was Si). HO for August. or only 5c below the opening. September pork also declined sc, but the October future did not seem to be much ;itle<-ted and closed at the opening. The general ten dency in the provision pit was downward, •whether this effect could be attributed to natural causes or to Peter MeCieoch's but ton-hole bouquet it would bejdiflicult to say. At any rate Peter circulated among the boys pretty freely during the morning ses sion and they all appeared to be gJad to see him, as he had not been on the board be fore in many a week. Pork closed Si>.9:i}.' August, $10 September. ¥10.10 October. The trade in lard and ribs was almost en tirely local and the market dull, the close for August and September being: Laid $s.s2>£@U.G2}£; short ribs 55.27(a;.j.05. The Quotations.

CmcAOO, Julya.—At the sbxtiexehange the market opened •, a higher, with the exception of Lackawanna, which was - lower at tirst Pticea, halted, hesitated, sold off a little, then recovered, and at the noon hour was nearly at the highest point of the day; with good baying reported hi the Vanderbilts and West Shore bondSi The market looks m thoogh the old boll cliques bad got back from their Ishing excursions and had BOM to work Igain to get up another boom, although the leaaons for an advance at this ttane an not apparent. Still, in the stocks speculation was now car ried on, and reason or no reasons do not cut much of a figure. Texas Pacific awoke from its long deep andgained ,'„ dming the forenoon. West .Shore bonds soi«l on to 87)1, New York Central Jo >s7; . and hake Shore, which was unusually active, to Hoth Presidents Depew and Boberts of the New York Central and Pennsylvania roads. respectively, deny that thereare any special negotiationsgofaigon lor the setUesaent of all dilliculties. but somebody keeps BULLING THE STOCK all the same. Union Pacific was slow and dragging around 51. Brie seconds continue to show a rather firm front and rose to 53){. The Grangers were well held, Northwestern advancing to 93%, and St. Paul to 73K- Receiver Green of the Xorth River Con struction company, which built the West Shore road, has filed an answer to a petition of the bondholders for a foreclosure, in which he states that the road cost that com pany §7,000,000 more than the contract price, and he asks that this sum be re garded as a prior lien upon the road. Gen eral Wall street gossip was wanting on ac count of a derangement of wires by the storm. The two stocks that seemed Most reluctant to ascend with the test of the list were Pacific Mail and Union Pacific. The close was steady and the majority of ope rators appear to be still arrayed on the bull side, at least there was any amount of pro dictions at the finish that better prices would be the order of the day for sobm time to come, and but few seemed inclined to dispute it. New York, July 9.—Government bonds are quiet and strong at unchauged quotations. State bonds have been quiet and quotations generally strong. There has been very heavy trading to-day in United States Brat and Erie second consols, Iota! sales of the former amounting to $1,290,000 and or the latter to 3f977,000, while the total transactions in all issues traded in was $2,9i»0,l)00. There has I ecu both yesterday and to-day an unusual amount of trading In some of the market issues on account of tin very favorable crop reports. Friends of the Huntiugton and Gould systems of roads claim that Texas will probably show this year more improvement than any other state in tho Union, which will operate directly to the interests of their properties. Prices this evening were generally higher. The stock market has been decidedly more active to-day, especially dur ing the forenoon, the total sales for the first two hours exceeding yesterday's business by 8,000 shares. Tho activity was accompanied by a decided advance in prices, the market opening strong, and, with tho exception of a slight reaction in some stocks. continuing strong until nearly 1 o'clock, when the high est prices of the day mere made, which were generally from }$ to IV, per cent, above tho closing figures of last evening. St. Paul led ON THIS AHVANOE, but New York Central gained I*£ and others of the most active list ma:U- fractional ad vances. Pacific Mail was the weakest, gain ing only %. In tho afternoon the market be-, cumc more quiet, and on considerable realiz ing, slowly declined, in many cases all the earlier advances being lost, however. St- Paul. Northwestern, New York Central. Union Pacific,' Western Union and Louisville & Nashville did not Mil in the afternoon below closingl prices lo£l|evcnlng, while Lackawanua, Pacific Mail, Jersey Central and Lake Shore sold down Hto% per cunt, below those fig ures, in the last half hour there was a slight recovery in the general list, although the. upward movement was somewhat Irreg ular, and the market" finally closed about steady at prices which were to the majority THE ST. PAUL DAILY GLOBE. FRIDAY MORNING, JULY 10,*1885. | of the list fractionally higher than last even | ing* the general gains in a few cases exceed l ing '« per cent. HALF A DOZEN STOCKS are from "% to }.; per cent, lower, the latter including Delaware & Hudson, Lake Shore, Central of New Jersey and Missouri Pacific. Exceptional strength was manifested In St. Paul, which closed with a net gain of 1% per cent, and New York Central is up % per cent. The total Bales for the day were 270,300 shares, an increase over yesterday of 125,000 shares. Three stocks, St. Paul, Lackawanna and LaVe Shore contributed nearly half of to-day's business. The transactions in St. Paul alouo aggregated 66,000 shares. The afternoon reaction is not gen erally regarded on the street as more than tho natural course of a healthy market, follow ing the decided advance, of yesterday and this afternoon. The weakness in Pacific Mail is ascribed to the circulation of a rumor that an opposition turn was about to be started. Investigation proves that there was no foun dation in fact for Buch statements, Re ceiver Humphreys of the Wabash company says that the Cairo & Ohio and the Peoria* Western divisions have appealed to tno court* for their property, on the ground that they '' can be operated to better advantage INDEPENDENT OF THK WABASH. The court has declared that these divisions could bo operated as desired, yet they must be subject to all equities under foreclosure of the WaliH-h property. Tho Omaha divi sion of the St. Louis, Kansas City & Northern has applied for the same privilege, but no action has yet been taken. The Louisville & Nashville company advertises to buy £850,000 city of Louisville bonds, which mature April 1. ISM, Oct. 1, l->-;. and April 1,1857. These bonds were loaned to the railroad company by the city in 1656, tho company agreeing to pay tho coupons and principal of the bonds. The company deposited, when the bonds were issued, £850,000 of Louisville & Nash ville stock, and when the stock was doubled the sinking fund commissioners of the city of Louisville required additional security, upon which the company took up its stock and substituted $£50,000 government 4 and 4J4 per cents. The company will now buy any part of the city of Louisville bonds, can celling so much of its debt, and will sell the governments at the present satisfactory premiums. The sales of stocks to-day aggre gated 270,289 shares, including: Delaware, Lackawanna & Western, 35,560; Kansas & Texas, MM; Lake Shore, 36,015; Louisville & Nashville, 8,01)5; Northwestern, 18,013; New York Central. 28,534; PaclUc MalL 8,235; St. Paul, 68,030; Texas Pacific, 7,875; Union Pa cific, 17,515; Western Union, 11,150; Northern Pacific preferred, 3,262.
