June o.—Rumors of a possi ble /'squeeze" in July wheat caused a sharp advance today, and, after an ex ceedingly active session, July closed 2Vi@ 2%c higher. July corn closed %c lower, July oats a shade lower and July provi •slo>-s from unchanged to 10c lower. Disappointing cables, an increase in quantity on passage and reports cf rain o xerted* a bearish Influence at the open ing of the wheat market. Under liberal offerings July opened %c to %c lower, at 743"4<fo 575 c.. Nearly all the win put out was taken quickly by a few commission houses. Offerings soon ceased and shorts began to clamor for more to cover early sales. It was declared that the rains had not fallen where most needed. it. was rumored fuither that a largo commis sion, house, said to have bought 10.C00.000 bushels of July last week, was preparing to execute a "squeeze." This became the ruling Influence and July advanced sharp ly to 76% c. Temptation to take profits resulted in a reaction to 7t>'HC, but under continued bull support and an unexpected big ii en \se in the visible, the upward movement was resumed until 77c was reached. Here there was a slight halt and then a further upward rush to 7S%c. The close was strong and 2Vi(52%c higher at 77%®77"%c. The visible supply decreased ?..102,000 bushels. World's shipments were 1 8,419,000 bushels. The quantity on pas sage Increased 592,000. Primary receipts wtre 912,2-2!) bushels, against 1,03t!,0C0 bush els last year. Seaboard shipments of wheat and Hour were equal to 1,155,000 bushels. Fifteen loads were reported for export. Minneapolis and Duluth reported COS cars, against 419 last week and 519 a year ago. Local receipts were U'i cars, none of contract grade. Corn was dull but secured considerable benefit from the strength in wheat. July opened unchanged to ' s c higher at 4.*>i£'?i) 45UC on small receipts of contract corn and advanced to 45^4@45%c on covering. Later it broke under selling by the bull leader to' »%c. Helped by wheat, there was a subsequent rally and the close was steady and '<; lower at 45c. Local re ceipts were 577 cars, r>l of contract grade. Oats were fiim within a narrow range. Commission houses were apparently sup plied with selling orders. The buying was scattered and mostly local. July sold be tween 28*4 c and 2.5% c and 28%@28%c, clos ing steady, a shade lower at 28} •<-. Local receipts were 42 cars. Provisions were dull. Pork and ribs were in good supply and there was some demand for lard early, but that commod ity was easier toward the close on sell ing by commission houses. July pork sold between $14.52% and $14.62*, closing easy and 10c lower at $14.55. July lard sold be tween $S.I2V. and $8.16 and 55.17... and $8.20 and closed unchanged at $S.m<>.

LONDON, June The Mark Lane Express today, in its weekly review of the: crop situation, says: It is already clear that British crops will be very Ir regular, but we do not despair tTiat wheat will be up to the average yield. Grub and ether pests are much in evl c>nce. The crops promise well in Rus sia, Italy. Spain and Algeria, but there Is only a mediocre outlook for France, Austro-Hungary, Roumania and Turkey. There is distinctly less than the average promise for Germany and parts of Po land. Ihe regions where there Is over an average wheat prr«uise may be ex pected to produce 150.C00.000 quarters, the regions with an average promise 75/00,- COO Quarters and the regions with a defi ciency £5.000.000 quarters. Undeniably these figures are quite sufficient to ac count for the very quiet markets. WHEiAT MOVEMENT. Receipts. Shipments.

While rumor at one time had it that "the copper clique" was hying near months again there was noth ing to confirm these stories in the business done. Lower markets abroad and tremendous receipts in the crop country were responsible for the slight decline here. Total sales were 1-1,250 bags, including July 5.2(X«-5.a5c; Septem ber, 5.35 c; October. 5.40 c; December. 5.C553) 5.60 c: March. 5.75#5.50c; May, 5.90 c. METALS—New York, June 3. — The market locally was an irregular one. Opening weak and about 55 points lower, in sympathy with the depression abroad and on bearish monthly statistics, tlie murket rallied later in "the day on local covering, bringing values back about 25 points, at which level the market closed steady in tone, with spot tin quoted at $28. In London values were reduced about £2 since last Friday, spot clo.-ing at £128 12s Gd. and futures at £12*3 12s Gd. An increase in tin of 50fi tons was shown in the American visible supply of this month. Copper in London declined Cs Gd under liquidation, and closed easy in loji" at £G9 5s for spot, and £69 ]5s on" futures. The situation locally was dull at 117 for Lake Superior, and 16% for casting ani electrolytic. Exports of copper for the month of May footed up 10,920 tons, mak ing the total for the. first five months 39,557 tons, against a total for the sime period last year of Gi),723 tons, a decrease of 29.526 tons. Lead, while ruling steady remains unchanged at $4.37% for lots of 50 tons or over. In London prices were at last quoted at £12 6s 3d. Spelter wag a shade steadier here, and 5 points here on asking rates, closing at $3.95@1.0\ while at London values remain un changed: The easier tone manifested in iron ore was the result of a lack of de mand, but prices were without change, though in buyers' favor.

Saturday. Bar silver. New York — "60 5-34 Call money, New York.»2%-4 NEW YORK, June $-jfe|>ecnlatian in stocks was again very ammatej today and the dealings showed a substantial expansion, over those of Friday. Bo.h in character and volume oii trading tr.e mrket bore a close res'-mblanc.i to that in the boom period. Strenuous efforts were put forward by powerful financial interests to give it that appearance. ! There was increasing buying on the pare ;of the outside public, demonstrated ■ throug-h the commission house orders ex [ eeuted in the market, but the market j still continued for the most part j n tuia I hands of professional operators, and the | larger speculative interests. Much of the i buying is predicated upon tne confident I assumption that the powerful financial j interests of the country have reached a I determination by tacit agreement to ad ! vance prices to a higher level again and to attempt to rentw the speculative con ditions prevailing before tne ups t in the second week of May. Buyers of last I week were very heavy sellers to tike profits today, and this selling caused a ! heavy general reaction after the open'.ng i advar.es. which was fairly common to i the whole list. Some <?t the stocks which ! j were most conspicuous in the opening ! j advance did not do more than hold the r • own in the later dealings. Others con i tinuc-J to advance, while still others, | which were strong early last week and ! then reacted, renewed their strength ;n [ the late dealings". After the first* gen ; eral reaction the policy was adopted of i advancing first.cne and th?n another ; stock in sequence. Realizing was con tinuous under cover of these movements, ; but the net result of the day's trading i was a substantially higher level of • prices. At th-e close, after a day of great | activity and variety, the steel storks were i conspicuously under pressure cf realizing I after the opening rise and closed on tr.e down grade with only, fractional net gains. Very conspicuous strtng^h was shown by St. Paul, L'nioa. Pacific, South ern Pacific, Missouri Pacific and in the I final deajlngs, the Ridings and Erics. There was a development o; great specu lative activity in sugar, which carrkd that stock up an extreme five paints. Amalgamated Copper gWrfed 3>/ 8 . The to bacco stocks, Colorado Fuel, Consolidated | Gas, General Klectr.c and Pacific Mail I rose from Ito 2%. Sugar was affe-ctod I by the renewed convicttam that an un- j dtTstanding existed b.;vv«~ii the compet ing interests. In the large at largo there was little specific news to account far the activity and strength beyond the belief that the agreement! arrived at in the Northern Pacific disguise carried with it assurance of the concord among all the great railroad powers, n Northern Pa cific stock sold ait 35J .-.att:;! the clcsing was 100 bid and 18J asked. Only 10> shares were dealt in. On,^ of the rumors current was that Northern Pacific stocks would be exchanged for bonds to be jointly guaranteed by Union Pacific. St. Paul and Chicago & North-Western. Speculation was largely -based on general considerations, such as that time had demonstrated that the stock market panic had effected no impairment of the pros perous business conditions, so that wlCri speculative losses adjusted a renewed ad vance was in order. The unimpaired earning power of properties and the renewed accumulation of capital, it is argued, point to new demand for securi ties. The belief Is prevalent that further large readjustments in the relations and holdings of the great railroad systems, looking towards addition=il stability of conditions, are still in.cQnleiuplation, and it is-argued that the panic in itself may have facilitated efforts to concentrate holdings of railroad securities -with these ends in view. An easier tone In the ex change market indicated less probability of gold exports this week. Bonds were active and strong, in sym pathy with stocks. Total sales, par value, $4,700,C00. United States bonds •were all unchanged on the last call. STOCKS. Furnished by Charles H. F.

However, it was in the American depart ment that activity was most marked and these shares furnished the bulk of busi ness. The buying of Americans went en steadily throughout the session. Buying for the American account was a feature early, but sagged off somewhat toward the close. Prices rallied as a result ct •buying on the curb after the exchange closed. The favorites were Erles and Southern Pacific. but the feature was easily United States Steel. Predictions were that a dividend of 4 i>er cent would be declared on the common stocks nest month.
