A circular for Australia says: "Since the steamship Sonoma left there have been the fol lowing arrivals of coal from Newcastle, N. S.

This Is the largest amount of coal which has been delivered here from the Colo nies this year, between steamers, and makes a large decrease in the number of vessels now loading at Australian ports. When the last steamer left there was reported on the engaged list sufficient tonnage to carry 04.000 tons to this port. There are now but twenty-three ves sels, with a carrying capacity of about 62.000 tons, hence we may look, from this time for ward, for a monthly shrinkage of coal carriers. It would appear that bedrock prices for Colon ial coals had been readied, as there appears, for the moment, a better feeling prevailing. No marked Improvement can be looked for. as the prices obtainable for steam production are reg ulated by the value, of fuel oil, which Is exceed ingly low. It Is evident that importers of Co lonial grades will make endeavors to Increase their sales for household .purposes, and they probably will to an extent be successful, unless our coast domestic. coals be further reduced In 1 price."

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal.. July 23—5 p. m. NEW YORK, July 23.— The stock market again demonstrated its absorptive power to-day and made a various but quite convincing show of strength, notwithstanding the appearance of I a reactionary tendency In some of the stocks, I which tempted to realizing by the high price attained, and a few cases of positive weakness. The volume of dealings was again below a mil lion shares and the bulk of the dealings was con gested in a very few active stocks. It was ob vious, nevertheless, that the bull campaign was still in force and that large and powerful capi talists were still committed to the long side of the market. Not much attention was paid to the news of the day, which was somewhat weak in Its bearing upon values of securities. The speculation shifted from^one to another quarter of the market in the usual progress of rotation in which skillful speculative leaders keep the movement of prices equalized from time to time and without regard to new developments. The weekly crop bulletin of the Weather Bureau was interpreted favorably on the whole, espe cially that of corn, and turned the scale of sen timent in favor of the advance. Some disap pointment was felt over denials of yesterday's rumors that anthracite mining would be re sumed on August 1, and the coalers and Eastern railroads generally, with the exception of an early advance in^Jew York Central, were al most stationary. A feature of the day was the marking up of various dormant stocks which have not shared in the recent advance. This tendency extended to Northern Securities Com pany on the curb, which rose buoyantly to 110. Great Northern preferred advanced 4%, but lost half of its gain. These movements were simultaneous with the publication of an ab stract of the Indenture securing the new Oregon Short Line collateral bonds. This showed that provision is made for allowing that the North ern Securities stock deposited as collateral for these bonds shall be allowed to share in any re organization project or further merger or sale and distribution of the company's assets. The profit taking in Pennsylvania was somewhat aggravated by the action of the New York Al dermen In rejecting the Pennsylvania tunnel contract. Brooklyn Transit was decidedly weak, owing to the belief that the company's bid for construction of the East River tunnel will fall of acceptance. The granting of a stay of the Amalgamated Company's injunction againet the working of a disputed mine by a rival was held to explain the reactionary ten dency In that stock. There were striking up ward movements In various specialties, which were due to purely individual causes or manip ulation. The expectation that yesterday's en gagement of gold for export would be canceled was only partially realized and there was a fur ther engagement by another house of one mil lion dollars, thus bringing the exports for the week up to ?2, 750,000. The sustained steadiness of the exchange market indicated that the ship ment is in direct settlement of foreign obliga tions. London continued to sell stocks in this market. The call money market was somewhat firmer, the time money market distinctly so, but this did not seem to disturb the equanimity of buyers of stocks. Active profit taking made the closing irregular and the net changes mixed. The bond market was irregular. . Total sales (par value), $4,565,000. NEW YORK STOCK LIST. Stock — ' Sales. High. Low.

The Chicactj Dally Trade Bulletin In Its an r.u&l Etatement of the grain trade, says of the foreign situation: "It is rather difficult to estimate the wheat crop of Europe, as reports are made through different sources. It Is safe to calculate, how ever, that in the aggregate there will be an increase of about 90,000,000 bushels. In the United Kingdom the area seeded was slightly reduced, and the outlook is not very encour aging. Indications point to a small decrease. In France, wheat will be a fairly good crop, the yield being generally estimated at 20,000,- OOO bushels in excess of the crop of 1901, con pequently the importations will be correspond ingly reduced. Reports from Germany are quite favorable for a lull average crop of wheat — will probably exceed the yield of last year by 40.000.000 to 50.000,000 bushels. Advices from Russia are somewhat conflicting. There tfuce the yield, which will probably be a. fair ly good one, especially of fall sown wheat. In the aggregate, the yield will probably not vary rr.ucli from that of 1001. In Austria-Hungary, the outlook favors an increase in the yield of cf tbout 30,000,000 bushels." New York Almond Market. Ma'.l advices from New York eay, regard ing Almonds: '•Considerable interest is attached here to the fcrthcomir.s sale of twenty carloads of Davis vi!le almonds scheduled for offering on the Coast on July 26 next. In some quarters it is expected that this sale will establish to Ecme extent the Coast basis of values for the new crop. Offerir.^s now available from vari ous tources are looked upon as somewhat spec ulative by buyers, and it Is said few sales for account here have been put through. It is believed, however, that markets of the interior have taken hold freely. Sales for account of tn interior buyer were reported to-day through a broker fct-re at lie for Nonpareils, 10%c for Ne Plus Ultra, 10%c for I. X. L. and 8%c for Languedoc. According to Coast advices there is a basis for belief that the low range of prices now ruling on the future — the same being about lc under the original opening basis — is maintained by the larce operators for the purpose of crowding down or Influencing the Coast situ ation. -By cstab!iBhir,s a low market it is believed' in some quarters h«re that the large operators who buy from the various almond as sociations in California will be able to secure the fruit at lower figures. There is a report in circulation in this connection that three of the principal operators on the Coast are work ing in harmony this season. Advices from the Coast now estimate the coming crop at about £C>0 carloads." ' European Wheat Crop Palermo — Warm weather for pa*t three days ripening fruit rapidly. Santa Maria — Threshers now turning out fully S0O0 sacks grain daily. Llvermore — Figs light; good crop. Newman — Conditions unchanged. King City — Harvesting progressing rapidly and will soon be completed. Cloverdale — Harvesting first crop tobacco from Hermitage farm. Napa — Peaches and apricots ripening nicely; good crops. San Jose — Fruit crops doing very nicely. Santa Rosa — Continued hot weather and ab sence of fogs throughout June have shortened hop crop to some extent, but yield and quality will be excellent. A. G. McADIE, Section Director. CHICAGO. July 23.— Wheat ruled about steady. The opening was a little higher on cables and the weather, which was a little showery, and it was expected to be rainy to morrow. The Government report also indi cated damage to wheat'J Commission houses, however, had stuff lor sale, the outsider was keeping out of the market because of fears of manipulation and receipts were very good. The main bullish incentives which brousht a late rally after an early dip were the depleted stocks, the very poor grading of the receipts and local thunderstorms. The prospects for export business were somewhat Improved but the cash demand was only fair. There was renewal of the' gossip that a leading packer was trying to boost September prices. Under these Influences July wheat practically stood still at 77. September opened unchanged to %c up at 72%@72%, dipped to 72%, rallied to 72% and closed firm, % up at 72%. >, Corn was slow and but little interest waa taken in the market.

Wheat and Other Grains. WHEAT— The foreign markets showed little change. An interesting estimate , of the Eu ropean crop will be found in the first column. Chicago showed little variation. The cash demand was slow. The scarcity of good Wheat was a factor, as the grading continues to run poor. Commission houses were fair buyers and the pit was also bidding up. The strength in September was due rather to light offerings than to any .big buying. In this market spot Wheat was as previous ly quoted, but futures were a little off.

An Interesting report on Almonds from New York appears in the first column, i Additional advices of disaster to the Prune crop of France have still further hardened the | views of growers and large handlers of this j fruit, and, sellers are very indifferent about meeting buyers. Mail advices from New York say that bids of 2%c for the four sizes are no longer there, and bids of even 2%o are in most cases turned down. The statistical position of the market is certainly better than for a number of years. Other fruits remain as previously stated. A better feeling in Peaches is reported from New York. A press dispatch from San Jose yesterday eald that since last Friday 21 cars of old Prunes had been sold for export to Europe, where the demand for California Prunes is greater than ever before known, owing: to th« failure of the French crop and the remarkably low prices of the California fruit.
