DOWNWARD RANGE OF 2Mc IN SEPT. WHEAT
The Market Opened Higher at 66c,
but Broke to 63 3-4 C, and Was
Without Support.
SOUTH DAKOTA DAMAGE LIGHT
Some Relief From the Hot Spell-
Corn Weather—General
... : . New*.
Minneapolis Chamber of Commerce, July 15.
—Wheat had another up and down turn much
the same as on Saturday, the market open
ing higher but going to pieces*on the first
heavy offering. September started In this
morning nearly l%c higher at 66c, and then
made a straight drop to 64% c. Here -it
held a while, but dipped again later, selling
to 64@64%c.
Over Sunday there was practically no rain
in the corn belt. The high temperatures ex
tended northward into South Dakota, the
•weather report showing a maximum of 102
degrees touched at Huron. Late last night
and early this morning some slight relief
■was felt, with a sprinkle of rain. ■ Huron
had a trace, and .14 at Winnipeg was the
heaviest noted in the first report. The early
business was of a mixed character and after
the break the markets showed a nervous and
Quickly responsive tendency, but hesitation
ruled the trading. It was expected South Da
kota would have some bad reports to send
out, but nothing worth noting came at first,
and the fact that there were scarcely any
country buying orders In the pit made it
look as If there had been no material harm
done. Later on, some news of Injury to
■wheat began coming, but up to noon it was
difficult to determine how extensive the dam
age had been, or whether this South Da
kota hot weather was to help the market or
not. For one thing the wheat in South Da
kota is very well matured for this date and
in places is ready for the harvester, which
■was a point of consideration in speculating
as to the probable effect of the hot spell.
Before noon it was reported cooler generally
and indicating rain. Redfield had a fair
shower and Williston, Minn., reported a ma
terial drop in the temperature.
Liverpool was off %d at the opening, but
on second cables came %@%d higher.
World's shipments were 7,064,000 bushels
for the week, against 7,288,000 bushels last
•week, and 5,470,000 bushels a year ago.
America shipped 5,016,000 bushels, Russia 840,
--000 bushels and the Danube 136,000 bushels.
India shipped 248,000 bushels and Australia j
440,000 bushels. Wheat on passage decreased
2,072,000 bushels. Liverpool stocks are lighter
by 72,000 bushels. t
Primary receipts were 1,370,000 bushels,
against 952.000 busheU last year, and ship
ments 584,000, against 490,000 bushels. Kan
sas City had 500 cars, against 701 last year,
and St. Louis 372,000 bushels, against 246,000
bushels. Wheat and flour clearances showed
796,000 bushels, corn 208,000 bushels. Minne
apolis received 449 cars and Duluth 25,
against 253 and 34 last year. The visible sup
ply made a decrease of 1,709,000 bushels,
•which makes the total now 27,959,000 bushels.
The corn market was weaker towards the
close and wheat showed further weakness
in sympathy. September sold to 63% c foi»
low and December to 65% c. At the close
there was little support and closing figures
■were near the low points, September at 63% c;
December, 65%@65%c; July wheat, 63% c;
Chicago closed September at 66%@66%c.
The cash market showed a satisfactory de
mand, although the heavier receipts had ef
fect to hold the market quiet on the poorur
lots. No. 1 northern sold at l@l*4c over
September. No. 2 brought 64*4@65*4c No.
3 was salable at 60@63c. Rejected wheat
ranged from 56 to 60c and no grade from 52
to 57c.
THE FLOUR MARKET
Sales Are Satisfactory and Grinding
la Heavy.
Millers report the flour market in satisfac
tory shape, although the unsettled wheat
market has effect to lessen demand on the
■whole. Foreigners continue bidding under
the market and will not come in freely at the !
advance. A break of 2c In wheat, it is
thought, would stimulate flour trade greatly, I
as it Is believed buyers would take hold j
freely on a slightly lower basis. The mills i
are grinding heavily.
Shipments for the day were 44,452 brls. .
First patents are quoted $3.75@3.85; second
patents, $3.55@3.65; first clears, $2.65@2.75;
second clears, $2.05.

STOCK PRICE SMASH
Wall Street Mart Demoralized at
the Opening.
THEN COMPETITIVE BUYING HELPS
It Serves to Elevate Prices, but
Some Heavy Declines Are
Recorded.
New York, July 15.—Heavy declines in
Americans In London before the opening here
foreshadowed the effect here of the strike of
steel workers. United States Steel in Lon
don was 4% lower at 2 o'clock and the pre
ferred 6, and iv the railroad list losses ran to
2 points or over in Erie first preferred, Lou
isville and Southern Pacific.
The market here opened demoralized and
prices were smashed all around. First sales
of United States Steel were of 20,000 shares
on a running scale downwards from 38 to
37%, an extreme decline of 4 from Satur
day. Of the preferred the first sales were of
8,000 shades on a scale downwards from
87% to BG%, an extreme loss of 5. The fluc
tuations in these stocks were wild and er
ratic over a range of several points above
the lowest, but the recoveries constantly
yielded. Meantime other stocks were drop
ping by Intervals of 1 and 2 points. Union
Pacific was forced down 5 points within the
first few minutes. Texas & Pacific and
Atchlaon 4%, St. Paul 4%, Erie 3, Amalga
mated Copper 3%, Southern Pacific 3% and
Missouri Pacific 4%. Pretty much every
thing on the list was down from 1 to 3
points. Trading was nervous and' excited
and enormous blocks were unloaded upon
the market without apparent regard to the
prices they brought.
Shorts commenced to cover and support
ing orders were executed for various pools
and substantial interests. This competitive
buying sent prices up from 1 to 2%, the
latter in United . States Steel . preferred.
Among the railways - St. Paul, Atchison and
Pacifies made the least recoveries. The
rapidity 1 of the rally invited realizing and
there were frequent setbacks of a point here
and there. A sharp break In the corn market
on reports of rains in the corn belt accen
tuated the rally. _... .. ' :*
Liquidation was resumed in spots in the
market, especially for . the Coalers j during
| the second hour. Delaware & Hudson fell
j 2%, Jersey Central 5 and Lackawanna '. 8%.
Colorado Fuel also slumped 6% and Northern
American j6. Elsewhere prices ruled gen
| erally above the lowest, but the tone was
feverish. The leaders fluctuated a point i
either way frequently, but : met good buying j
i on every relapse which canceled temporary '
recessions. The rally reached 3% in Atchi
son, 3 in Union Pacific and 2% in St. Paul.

INVESTMENT GOSSIP
New York to Watson: There is a general
feverish sentiment this morning over the
outcome of to-day's market. It looks as if
weak accounts will be liquidated and this
will place the market in good shape for bar
gain hunters.
New York to Lewie: Reported rain In
southwe&t. Stocks have been thrown over
this morning without regard to prices. I
therefore think this morning will show about
the lowest and good stocks can be safely
bought now. '
AVOIDING FATALITIES.

METHOD IN ADVICE
How the Commuter Who Liked Soli-
tude Attained His Purpose.
Life.
I have lately been giving advice to my
friends, and find it Days. The first one I
toet was Typerly. He came up to me in
the station. He is a successful novelist.
"I've read your book, old man," I said,
"and understand how you came to write
it. A man must live. But it seems a
pity that you couldn't have paid more at
tention to the style and literary finish.
After all, there's something else in the
world besides money."
Typerly gazed at me witheringly and
passed on.
My next friend was Pendragon, an ex
pert accountant.
"Let me give you a few pointers," I re
marked, earnestly, "on the simple lawa
of health. You are under weight. You
look pale. You have undoubtedly some
thing the matter with your lungs. You
ought to give up work at once. Even now
it may be too late."
Pendragon murmured something Inaud
ible and hurried into the smoking car.
No. 3 was Smith. Smith wats the father
of a three-weeks-old baby. Here was a
golden chance
"Nothing could be more fortunate," I
remarked, "than that we should be oc
cupying the same seat Now about that
baby. Does he cry much at night? How
is his digestion? Have you examined
his heart with a stethoscope? If not,
do so, and don't rely on the doctor. It is
better to know the worst at once. Have
you read Whimper on 'Children's Dis
eases'? Get it at once. Do you know
what rickets are? They are caused by a
lack of nutrition. You are a father, and
it is your duty to study every biological,
anthropomorphical, dietic, hygienic, lac
teal, phychologlcal and physiological as
pect of your offspring."
Smith murmured something about a
business engagement and went away
abruptly.
The next on my list was Gullton, a man
of piety.
"I understand," I said with a cynical
smile, "that you attend church regularly.
Of course, sir, blind faith is a common
human attribute, but as an intelligent in
quirer have you investigated the claims
of orthodoxy? Have you read Briggs on
the scriptures? Are you familiar with the
process of natural selection and that
biogenesis effectually answers the prob
lem as to the nature of the so-called soul?
Do you know that the doctrine of the sub
jectivity of the senses, while not neces
sarily antagonistic to teleology, utterly
precludes the postulate of an orthodox
God? It is your duty, my dear sir, to
look these matters up."
Gullton's voice shook with anger and
his face turned all colors of the rainbow
as he remarked, in paring, that he would
hereafter be careful of his company.
But these few examples serve to show
my method. I advise every thoughtful,
self-contained man, like myself to do the
same. I might remark, in conclusion,
that I live in a suburban town, one hour
from the office, and like to spend the time
on the train all alone by myself.
A GENERAL SCARE.
Shelbyville, Ind., Jeffersonian.
Ad editor in Columbus printed an item
that the man who was hugging the hired
girl had better stop or his name would
be published. In a few days about twenty
five citizens paid up their subscription
and told the editor to pay no attention
to foolish stories going around.
