MONEY. STOCKS AND BONDS.
Slight Increase in Activity Made at the Ex
pense of Values.
NEW YORK. July 8. Money on call
was easy, ranging from 2 to 4 per cent., the
last loan being made at 3. closing ottered
ftt3.
Prime mercantile paper 53 62 per cent.
Sterling exchange quiet and steady at
$4.83 for sixty-day bills and $4.8S34 for
demand.
The total sales of stocks to-day were 1G3,
0C2 shares, including the following: Atchi
son, 18,410; Delaware, Lackawanna & West
ern. 14,720; Missouri Pacific. 3.SS0; Rich
mond & West Point, 5.C59; St. Paul, 9,502;
Union Pacific, 11,470.
The stock market on the whole displayed
a little more activity than last week, but
the "bears" seemed to havo acquired cour
age to attack the list from the dullness
long continued, and the lower prices in
London, coupled with the disturbances
in the Argentine Republic. Prices conse
quently are generally slightly lower than
at the close of last week. 'London was a
seller to a limited extent, owing to the
fortnightly settlements, but London is not
now either a buyer or seller of American
stocks to any amount, and speculation for
the present in American stocks there seems
to be in the same condition that onr market
is here. The lower London ii cures and the
slight pressure of foreign stocks for sale led
to a trial of the market by the "bears." and
that is all there is to to-day's stock market.
As usual. Sugar Refineries attracted
most attention, both for its activity
and weakness. The only stocks of the
regular list showing any animation or
a tendency to follow .were Atchison
and Union Pacific, and in neither did the
fluctuations amount to as much as 1 per
cent. Lackawanna also came in for some
of the pressure late in the day, and the
theory was that it was no longer supported
and must yield readily to pressure of short
sales. Among all but professional oper
ators there is not the slightest disposition
to trado either on one sidoor the other, and
in the dullness, as usual, the short side is
most inviting to the traders. The apathy
displayed anions even that class of oper
ators, however, is remarkable. The "bears'7
are working on the theory that before any
material change can take place there must
be a downward movement to invite buy
ing, and hence are from time to time test
ing the market in a limited manner, but
the success attending these tactics last
week will not encourage any large ventures
in that direction unless supported by some
outside influence like that of to
day. The . pressure upon the list
was almost continuous to-day, and
prices slowly yielded without material
losses, except in the few stocks mentioned,
and the market closed barely steady on a
light rally, with prices generally slight
fractions below those of Saturday. Sugar,
however, was down ls per cent., Atchison
1 per cent., and Union Pacific 7s.
Railroad bonds showed considerable sym
pathy with the decline in stocks, but there
was no marked loss. The tone of the deal
ings was generally heavy, with fluctua
tions as usual scarcely perceptible, while
the dealings lacked feature of any kind.
Mobile &, Ohio new sixes, however, rose 2
percent., to 115; but no other important
changes occurred. The trading was light
throughout.
Government bonds were dull and steady.
State bonds were neglected. Closing quota

TRADING AT CHICAGO.
The Grain and Provisions Markets Excited
Sharp Advances and Heavy Business.
CHICAGO, July 28. A large business was
transacted in wheat, and the feeling was
unsettled and nervous. More or less ex
citement existed, especially during , the
early part of the session. Prices were high
er, but the full advance was not sustained.
.The opening was 12320 higher than Satur
day's closing figures, but the advance
brought out free speculative offerings, and
prices declined lGVic then fluctuated, and
closed about lLiiic higher than Satur
day. The advance was attributed to about
the same influences which have affected the
market of late. Advices from the North
west note very hot weather and further
damago to the crop. At points in northern
Dakota the thermometer was 105 and 110.
There was an immenso trade in corn, which
was exceedingly wild and very irregular,
price changes being sharp and frequent
coverings within l2c range. Thefeeling
prevailing was much stronger, and a quick
advance was scorod early "in the day, but a
sharp break: followed, the market ruling
easier, but closed firm. The early strength
was due to badcropadvices. Thebuyingin
of short corn, when the failure of a local
house was announced, also tended to boom
the market. There was freo realizing
on the advance, largo quantities of long
property coming out and prices receded 2o
from outside figures. Oats were firm and
during the first part of the session cou&id'
erable excitement prevailed, due to the an
nouncement of a prominent trader that he
wished his trades closed out. This made
operators wild to buy and tirst sales were
at Vil5hC over Saturday's close. Septem
ber aud May were the most excited and
showed the greatest irregularity, sales for
September being at lc apart at about the
same moment. July and August, rbile not
traded in very heavily, sympathized with
the other deliveries aud advanced lLc for
July and 240 for August. Pork trading
was fairly active. Prices advanced 50 d 5o
early but settled back again 40 it 50c and
closed steady. Lard trading was very act
ive. Opening sales were mado at .12 S
,15o advance. Later prices receded' .G5'&
.0710 and closed comparatively steady. In
short-rib sides an unusually heavy trade
was reported. Opening sales were made at
,10c advance, followed by further improve
ment of .Wioc. Later prices settled back
.02Lj3.a"c. About the middlo of the ses
sion prices rallied .OTioft-.lOc Toward the
close prices receded .02V3.C5c and closed
steady. The leading futures ranged as follows:

The Foreign Grain Trade.
LONDON. July 28.-The Mark Lane Ex
press , in its weekly review of tho British
grain trade says: Improved weather has
bettered the prospects of wheat although
the expectations of a crop over the average
are not good, tho outlook being that it will
be 5 per cent, less than the usual crop. Bar
ley, oats and beans have suffered less than
in 1889. In English wheat patent is at fancy
rates; good samples of heavy whits are
quoted at 332)34s. and red at 322; 38s. The
sales of Luglisn wheat during the week
amounted to 27,855 quarters at 35s against
45,746 quarters at 30s for the corresponding
week of last year. The heavy imports of
foreign wheat prevented an advance. The
spring ccn trade was firm. Barley ad
vanced 3d. Oats were in small request;
prices were against buyers. Maize was in
large supply; yet a good inquiry caused an
advance of Id in northern markets and 3d
in southern markets. Pulsoisup. To-day
flour was firm. Oats was held at 3d ad
vance. Barley was firm for spot and cheap
for futures. Maize was in good inquiry:
flat-yellow was 6d dearer and round 3d
dearer. To-day the English wheat trade
was trivial; demand fair at an advance of
Cd. Foreign was firm; South American ad
vanced 6d.

INDIANAPOLIS MARKETS.
Trade Good for July, with Higher rrlces In
dicated on Many Articles.
INDIANAPOLIS, July 28.
Trade in most departments is good for
midsummer, and there is a feeling that un
less the present drought long prevails aud
the crops fail in this vicinity, trade this
fall is to be good. The cotton and wool
markets are both firm, and the dry goods
men predict firm prices as a result through
the fall and early winter. Staple groceries
all carry a strong, steady tone. Canned
goods and dried fruits will likely be higher
than in mar.y years. The commission men
are complaining the dry weather is cutting
oiT tho vegetable and frnit crops, and mak
ing these articles so high that it limits
trade. All receipts, however, are readily
disposod of. Last year at this time the
packers were paying 40 cntsa bushel for
tomatoes aud getting thousands of bushels:
they are now paying $2 and getting but
few. Apples and Irish potatoes are, still
scarce and firm at our quotations. Poultry
is tinner. Eggs and butter are in good re
quest at prices quoted, and all along the
line there is a tendency to higher prices.
The wholesale men will now soon be able
to name prices on canned goods and evap
orated fruits. J. M. Paver & Co. yesterday
received the first car-load of evaporated
fruits shipped by Lusk & Co. from Cali
fornia this season.

sweep second movement thw iM-cond hand is run
roct from the moroment train, ifnuilug iK-rfect
motion, while the dial truin and bandaare run by a
friction pinion from a Mde center. '1 his gives all tha
advantages in tmie-kcrpiug Da!itiA of tho must
delicately adjusted and exp-nf lve movement.
