MONEY MORE ACTIVE End-of-Month Demand Forces Rates Up to 7 Per Cent on Call Loans STOCKS ARE INACTIVE Sharp Demand for Money Cnrtnil* Operations in Stocks —No Forced Lltiuida- NKW YORK, June 30.—The stock mar ket reflected the recent prevailing ten dency of speculative sentiment to lay the gnatest stress upon encouraging develop ments and to ignore what appears to be unfavorable with an invincible cheerful ness. The money market became quite active today, amd call loan rat« 3 ran up to 7 per cent under the influence of month-end demands for funds. This had the effect of curtailing operations in stocks to some extent, but forced no ap. pi ciable liquidation. The special stocks which have been chosen as leaders of the market by the speculative party which has made itself the guardian of values Showed points of strength at various times during the day. The course of the grain market showed a feeling of consid eiable anxiety as to the effect of the heavy storms upon the grain f-ops, but aside from St. Taul no railroad stock was much affected by this development. On the other hand, the favorable effaet of the rains on th 3 cotton crop found a response in an upward movement in some of The cotton carriers, notably the Texas & Pacific and Southern railways. The coalers also responded to the ex pressions of confidence on the part of the operators that the coal strike is disin tegrating. There is a belief in the finan cial district that the coal min^ operators have been deferring active steps towards a resumption of mining lentil after tho July 4 holiday, in the belief that the hol iday period might aggravate a tendency to disorder. A buoyant recovery from recent depression in Colorado Fuel was attributed to manipulation or to a strug gle for control amongst disaffectod in siders. Sugar also made an unexplained r«se, but the industrials generally were heavy. United States Steel stocks drop ped back a fraction. Overcapitalization, insufficient provis ion for working capital, and exorbitant allomaoca to syndicates and the contin ually developing necessity for bond is sues by the industrial combinations, are subjects under constant discussion in Wall st^t. The immunity of stock values norn harm on account of the* flurries in ths money market is attrib uted to the fact that the large speculative interests have provided themselves with time loan-? over the period of the July settlements. The rise in money rates in London to day caused an advance in sterling at Fan?, and thus relieve'! the pressure upon New York. New York exchange at Chicago. which ruled at 35c pre mium last week, dropped back today to Dc discount, indicating some pressure from that source upon New York for funds. The market closed almost inan imate and steady. There was an active market for Bur lirgton joint 4s, in connection with, the closing up of the syndicate. The under standing that the syndicate holdings were disposed of in connection with the settlement made the bonds strong. Oth erwise the market was quiet and firm Total sales, par value, $4,040,C<X) United States bonds were all unchang ed on the last call. Stock*. |STs]Hi'h]Low|Clo.

CHICAGO, June 30.—1n the grain pits today the dominating influence was the rain which has fallen since Saturday to flood an already soaked country. The dry spots on the map were so few as to scarcely warrant attention. Wheat closed l*4c over Saturday; corn, l%c to 2%c up; oats, I%@%c to l%c higher and provisions 2% to 7%c improved. September wheat, in which option the bulk of trade was transacted in the wheat pit, opened %c to 1%, c higher at "73% to 7334 c and went at a jump to 7-! c amid the clamor of a rain-scared crowd of shorts. Although not needed for the purpose, a decrease of 3,725,000 bii In the quantity afloat, and a report that Prance' would have to do some steep importing owing to a prospective late European harvest acted as auxiliary in fluences in sustaining prices. On the other side there were two considerations —low Liverpool cables 1 and the feeling that the rain must finatllv cease. Trade was heavy during the first hour, but the price did not get outside the opening range, nor did it during the remainder of the session, when the volume of transactions decreased. The close was strong, September, l%c up at 73% c. The visible decreased 1.275,000 bu. Seaboard clearances in wheat and flour were equal to 325,000 bu. Primary re ceipts were 637,000 bu, compared with 859,000 bu a year ago. Minneapolis and Duluth reported 495 cars, and Chicago 29, with five of contract grade. This made a total for the three points of 524 cars, against 452 last week and 577 a year ago. . '•'. - Corn was excited and the feeling nerv ous, but prices exhibited a buoyancy which refused to be dulled even when the manipulators of the July delivery dumped September in the pit in impos ing quantities. July corn startled bo holders by jumping to 72% c, the highest price, in ten years. A duel ,in the Sep tember option enlivened the opening hour. The manipulators of July began selling September, but the representative, or an influential house stood close and nonchalantly absorbed everything of fered. " •: . -.'.■..., ■...-, The excessive rainfall caused much fear of irreparable damage to the crop and made an Interruption oi' the' move ment and a deterioration in the grading almost certain. While interest in July was keen, owing to its high price, the biggest part of the trade was in Sep tember. Th^re was "naturally much profit-taking on the upturn, but generally commission houses were on j the buying side, indicating that the country is get ting on the long side of the :iafket. Re ceipts were 255 cars. The visible in creased 498.000 bu. July sol.; between 70VL>c and 72% c and closed strong, 2%c over Saturday at 72% c. September rang ed between 62c and G3%c, closing I%@%c up at 63c. . . *-.--•; j Oats contributed their' share to the bull excitement, prices advancing sharp ly on unrestrained buying by almost all interests. The weather was of course the influence. It was said that' the de luge threatened even grater damage to oats than to either wheat or corn. A ►strong cash situation augmented -. the sentiment on the bull side. Shorts en gaged in a lively covering movement at the opening. Profit-taking followed and forced prices back for a time but later buying was renewed and the market clos ed firm. Receipts were 209 cars. July sold between 47% c and 48% c, and closed l%c up at 48% c. September ranged be tween 34% c and 35% c, and closed l%c @%c improved at 35c. . •: Provisions were neglected for the grains. Prices, however, were steady "in sympathy with corn and on firm prices at the yards. September park closed 2%c higher at $13.50; September lard. 5 @7%c up at $10.62%@10.63 and September ribs. 7%c better at $10.67%. The estimated receipts for tomorrow are: Wheat. 40 cars; corn, 325 cars; oats, 285 cars and 22,000 head of hogs. \\ The leading futures ranged as follows: ___J Open.! HlgnTi'Q w. IClose.
