V., Aug. 25.— Tne weekly crop report of the AgriculturallDppartmentat Washing ton was the depressing influence in the stock mar ket to-day. as it was a stimulating influence upon the price of v. beat and corn. The opinion ex pressed in the Government reporl of the unfavor able condition of crops and Impaired wheat vielJ was of some import to the grain-carrying roads, though not enough to have a marked effect on the values. There were various times during the day when a struggle was made against the prevalent depression and when prices seemed em* barbed upon an upward course. Bot ibe fact would recur that a large part of the long advance In the price of grain-carrying roads has been pre dicted upon the abundant grain crop which it was expected was to be moved nd prices would turn downard again. Prices above yesterday's closing at any time during the. da.- are ex< ep ionai. and those here they remained above at the close are sill fewer. The fact that settlement day on the London Ex change developed no short interest or coviring demand was to some extent disappointing lo the bulls. The heaviness in all departments of ihe London Kxchange, growing out of the evident ser. ous affection in the northwest frontier of the Indian Empire, exercised some sympathetic In fluence in the local market. Commission-house buying v. as on a much reduced scale, and there was a lull of the activity oi th* part of the large mone -id interests which has teen prominent In the mirket recently. Sales show a total of not more than one-third of that shown by the deal lag, on some days of the lecenf period of activity. The extreme dullness at the d.'dine Indicate.! a healthy tone of the market, the liquidation at no time being heavy and the resistence at a given point being-firm; ihe market enjoyed an occa sional rail.* under the leadership of some indi vidual stock which was influenced by a develop ment especially affecting it. A simultaneous rise In • Sugar. Tobacco. Starch and Bay state Gas at anotner time rail ed the market. A selling movement in the last hour of trad ng carried prices to the lowest of ihe day aid left the general list fractionally below last night's level. Northern Pacific preferred was a weight on lh; market, owing to its poor showing of earn ing. The bond market showed- less weakniss than stocics, prices being generally higher Governments dull and slightly firmer.

LONDON MARKET. NEW YORK, N.

The tone of the market was generally dull, but there was nothing doing, and the fluctuations were small. Kaffirs were weak. Chilean an I Brazilian secuilties were j exceptionally strong, but Uruguay's were flat on reports tnat the negotiations ween the,insur gents and Government have broken off. Ameri cans were heavy, in sympathy with the other markets, and the close was null. Uo d was in better demand at 77s ll%d- To morrow £1,4D0,000 in solu wi.l be turned over to Japan, and ihat country has begun to buy gold m the open market. lhe silver market was disorganized. Indian merchants show a hesitation to buy on reports teal the Indian mints are to reopen, this to be ac companied by a heavy import duty on silver, thus increasing interna! currency without depressing j exchange. Another rumor is simply that the im port duty on sliver is to be increased. I c»nnot vouch for ihe probabili yof ci her report, but the latter is the more credible. India council drafts to be offered next week have been reduced to 10 lakhs, the treasury balances being so low. to day's decline ln French exchange on London is ascribed to this week's fall in the price of wheat. - 1 lie Paris and B rlln markets were dull.

V., Aug. 26 —There was a pause in the downward movement of wheat prices to-day, and at the lowest point of the session there was a rise of 4c a bushel fiom yesterday's close, but this was still 3y 2 c under the highest figure of the year on December. The market started out wi bulls in control and a spirited, competition for wheat between local slio ts and Continental houses. Prices ran up to 98c on this bui c, sgainst 95?4C last night, but on a succeeding cloud of selling orders in realizing and for short accounts dipped to 96V4C, from which it rose steadily, reaching gvj.i/ic in the ear y afternoon on good all-around buy.v**:, led by Chicago Local speculation roused into pronounced activity several urn- s during the day. not only at the opening, but, as was the case yesterday, there was. little or; 110 feverish excite ment In the ml The bolls who engineered the .recent advance were all understood to hays secured their profits and trading developed in favor of the small ope rators, who likewise friendly to wheal, were afraid to persist in -aggressive actions, iable news was bearish, with the single exception of Liverpool, which, after opsnlug 3d lower, rallied 1%®1% and then i asm. iff slichily closed at »%*S2 /4'i o>s from last nigh . Par s markets opened and closed lower, tbe final figures being 35@70 points off on wheat and 65 centimes to 1 franc lower on flour. Antwerp was O»• point lower for the day and Berlin nnoflicia'ly. 8 marks lower, so that, with the exception of early foreign breaking and the rally, to-day's cable news was detrimental .0 confidence to the bull siae, - Tne publication iv a prominent American trade journal of an estimated requirement of Del ween 3 10,000,000 and 40U.000,1'00 bushels by Kurope lh s year was a confirmation of tne most extreme bullish views on exchange. Near the close the market was firmly in* lined by rumors tnat export ers had picked up something like 800. 000 bu hels at New York and outports to-day. Final figures for the day were at 2%®3c advance over Us night, r-emlment after 'change was rather partial 10 he bu 1 side, on the i leu that prices nave ha! a sharp enough br^ak to shake out a great lot of turdeusome long wheat, a lowing the market to rest on a healthy basis again.

CHICAGO, Aug. 25. — Nearly all of yesterday's decline in the grain pits was recovered to-day. How strong a hold the bull clique had on reptem ber was shown Nhortly after the opening to-day. September, was quoted at the opening at from 93% cto 9;- 3 /4 c, compared with yesterday's closii g I price of 91% c, and touched 94c almost immedi ately after. It dropped back to 92% c. an I then it was that the spurs were put in. t fferlngs of Sep. tember ceased almost altogether, tne bull crowd, apparently sure of heir position, 's andlng pat," and the price jumped and kept jumping until about 11 o'clock it had reached 97c 'traders In Di cember had not been idle in tne meantime. '1 ha; ontion started at 91(*v9iy3C an advance of 34(<**Ui,4C from yesterday, touched 92c, we.it back to 90% c. then went on the run to 94c. Tnere was a sign- interval of weakness about an hour from the opening when the New York market yleldul bjt the slight decline occasioned was quickly re covered. ,; . ... .; *. Liverpool showed a d cline to begin with of from 3d to 3%d, but recovered pari of that later. New York wired slioitly after the opening (hat foreigners were buying wheat, and warehouses here who do business for loreign speculators te noned they had Luylng orders from abroad. In the course of the forenoon it was lound that one firm in New York had sold fifty boatloads, or 400,000. fur export, but much more satisfactory evidence of the European demand was that the shipments from Atlantic cities since yesterday morning's reports were 912,000, without taking account of the flour, which was 7000 barrels. Chicago receipts were 229 cars, but only 22 of tne number were contract 'l ue market was extremely nervous to the end. Fluctatlons of %c in September between trades were ir. quent aud December made jumps and plunges 01 %c without apparent reason beyond at temp.s of brokers to buy or sell more than 10,000 bu ifiels at a time. The conlin ntal markets were weak. Pari, closed at a decline in wheat of from l%@2s ; fcc per bushel, and Antwerp was 1 franc down 6, tbe equivalent of 5%c per bushel. Liv erpool clo ed _d percental lower for the day on spot and from 2%-s2%d down on futures. Clos ing prhes here were September 96% c; December 90% c. '1 lading in corn wag heavier than wheat ln the quantities that changed hands, although fluctua tions were mucn narrower. At the cutset there wai anot.ier new lot of selling by the pool which was suppos d to have sold out yesterday, the quantity let go of to-day being estimated at 4,000,000 bushels. No withstanding this- the liuarket advanced, the demand being general, elevator people who were set ers yis erday being •apt cially heavy buyers, crop reports were for the most part favorable. oats were rathe, easy tor awhile after the open ings and some vousness was shown.

Regardless of the rumor that the Continent bad sold two cargoes of wheat (which they could > ell afford todo as a blind), wheat at the closing ses sion was fairly strong.

Chicago. To-day's wheat market was a radical change as regards sentiment, compared with the feeling yes terday. Liverpool cables reported wheat 3d lower. Paris wheat was 55 c mimes lower, second cables were somewhat improved. The feeling on the early curb was strong. The clique unloaded yesterday, and it Is said that Armour and the local bull clique picked their holdings up. Sep tenibir shorts are greatly alarmed. They dare not attem pt to cover, as the market is too sensi tive. If the bears should become frightened --0 cent advance would not be unexpected. The de cline in wheat of the past few days has been a shake-out; also a transfer of large interests from one crowd to another. Liquidation is the secret of it all. Becelpts and shipments are about equal. Ex ports were • large. - New York reported 700, bushels of wheat taken out at Atlantic ports to-day for th" contine.it. Bet orts from Russia nro to the effect that supplies are smaller than generally thought to be. England is holding off, as she has done in the past. The advance on this side is con side: ed 100 rapid to hold by the Eng lish trade. Be tnat as It may, they are making anxlou*) 1-quiries regarding conditions on this tide, should wet weather overtake the English harvest, wheat prices would sour as they never have before. Conditions warrant ltberal prices tnls year. Those who wait for readout: to sup ply ill wants will find themselves badly disap po'nted.
