BEARS HAVE CLEAN
SWEEP IN MARKET
Push Prices Down with but Little
Effective Resistance
from Buyers
SHARP RECOVERY COMES LATE
Poor Showing of National Banks
Contributes to the Gen
eral Depression
fAssoelated Press]
NEW YORK, July 22.--The bear par
ty was not much molested In Its opera
tions In stocks today. Tho decline In
prices encountered little effective resis
tance In the form of buying orders
exiept such as tho bears themselves
supplied when they covered shorts
from time to time. The operations
were congested largely In a few of the
speculative stocks. But the price con
cessions applied to the whole list, ac
tive and Inactive. Bear covering
caused the sharp recovery late In tho
day.
The cut In tho National Lead divi
dend was the ostensible motive for the
eentiment of discouragement In the
■peculation which overcame the
market. The Incident was thought
Scarcely adequate to explain the ex
treme depression of speculative senti
ment and other causes were sought.
The showing made by the national
lianks in the compilation of returns to
the comptroller and the fears of a poor
quarterly statement by the United
States Steel corporation at next Tues
day's meeting of'directors were cited
os possible further grounds for the
tone of the market.
I'EHKONAMTIKS COrNT
The personality of. tho capitalists
credited with the control of the Na
tional Lead company made the action
Influential as B possible Index of llnan
rial and speculative policy. The par
nllel interests in copper of the same
financial Interests and the expecta
tion of conlllctlon of opinion over the
ullotment of copper production in the
effort to settle on an agreement for
curtailment begot the suspicion that
liere might be a sign of stock market
congest that might prove damaging to
onlookers as well as participants. , '
The consideration of the condition of
th« national banks of the country was
more limited to bankers, but may not
have lacked Influence on tho stock
market for that reason. The nominal
decrease In loans since March reported
on June 3n, when considered In con
nection with the greater lonn contrac
tion by the New York banks for the
tame period, Is no decrease nt all, but
Bn Increase of over $28,000,000 outside
New York.
ZJOAS& INCKFASK
In the same way the Increase on the
loam of 276,000 in the yearly com
parison has to take account of the New
York decrease fgr tho same time In
cluded in the total, which Indicates
that outside of New York there has
ticen considerable expansion of $476,
--233,000 In a year's time. The gain in
per centage of legal reserve In three
months amounts to one one-hundredth
of one per cent, and for the year there
lias been a decrease of 1.15 per cent,
the percentage to deposits of cash
on hand, redemption fund and due
from reservo agents stands at only
24.44 per cent, a docreaso In three
months of 80 per cent, and In a year
of 24.25 per cent.
The last item is nffected by the
Jieavy decrease of $83,102,900 for three
months in the Item due from other
tanks and reserve ngents, showing
how the interior banks nave been
drawing down their balances from the
reserve centers.
Bonds were irregular. Total sales
par value $1,233,000.
U. S. bonds unchanged on call.

CHICAGO GRAIN
Special service to The HeraM by J. C. tVll

Lob Angeles.
CHICAGO, July 22. -The wheat market was
morn directly under the Influence of cash
wheat and the corn market than under Rny
thlng that has heretofore been effective. New
Investment buying has been tllm, general trailo
small and lonss ihowad a tendency to reduce
I holdings. Weather dry In th« northwest, but
tooler. Foreign markets affected by unfavor
able crop news from France, where Paris made
a further advance. Kansp.s and Missouri mills
denied early claims of export sales of flour,
and added that domestlo buyers also were not
Interested. Crowd was skeptical of any export
talk. ,
Unexpected rains over nisht in eastern Ne
braska and western lowa, extending since Into
southern Illinois and Kansas, forced many of
yesterday's buyers of corn to sell today. Tho
trade, as heretofore, was largely local and pro
fessional, and It was found almost as hard to
si 11 corn today as It was to buy it yesterday.
Values were also as responsive as yesterday,
the market losing mnst of yesterday's gains.
Country sales of cash corn over nlKht were
free to thope who bid for them, but the total
to this market was small. Crop report* today
have bpen uniformly good.
Tl oats market waa only a faint reflection
of the corn market. Having responded only
moderately in yesterday's corn bulge, oats to
day wero slow to respond to the corn weak
ness. The acceptances of oats today In the
country were fair. Local supplies are low and
shippers were unablo therefore to do much
new business.
Provision products werr hlsher early, easier
later, but final price changes were not ma
terial. Outslile packers bought moderately on
tho lessening hogr run. Local packers also
bought a little. Weakness of grains later
counted against the market, leading to some
reallElng,
