WHEAT VERY ACTIVE
Sensational Cables and Strong
News Boost Prices
The wheat market was strong Sat
urday and prices responded, says It
Doran & Co.'s Chicago grain letter. Ca
bles reported sensational and totally un
expected advance at Liverpool, Paris and
Berlin, for which there was no adequate
explanation excepting report that import
, duties into Germany were to be raised.
New * York advices claimed there - "was
buying of deferred futures there for for
eign account. Heavy and well distributed
rains arouse instant fears of a wet har
vest. The forecast is for general thun
der showers except in Kansas and Mis
souri. H. V. Jones, of the Commercial
West, contributed a bullish item In re
gard to new crop movement. He main
' tains demand from country mills in the
Southwest is so strong it is doubtful if
much will reach Chicago in July. As to
harvesting, he says excellent progress is
being made. There was also some talk
of too much rain in the Northwest, but
no actual damage even hinted at. The
Northwest, however, was a buyer of Sep
tember wheat here. Broomhall cables that
offers of Indian wheat are smaller and
at -higher prices. Australian shipments
were 48.000 bu less than last week. Es
timate for world's shipments is 8.000.000.
Liverpool closed %@%c higher; Paris,
I%«t3c higher; Berlin. %@l%c higher.
Corn—There • was -a decidedly heavy
tone to the market, with especial weak
ness in the July. Bearish arguments were
plentiful. Slump in cash market Friday
-was followed by a further decline of lea
bushel., Klevator- interests early sellers
against contracts- made last few days.
Movement of this, quality from private "to
public houses is Increasing steadily. Re
ceipts have shown tendency to increase
all week. Demand is very scant. The
high temperatures and moisture over most
of belt is favorable to crop. Liverpool
closed %c higher. -
Oats—The market was dull and neglect
ed; and after a 'brief period of strength
at opening in sympathy with wheat the
tone became easier. . Although ano , pre
cipitation was shown in Northern- Illinois
on the map, private advices • from out
lying points shows, showers to have been
general. Demand rather quiet and cash
market about steady.

STOCKS SHOW NET LOSS
CHANGES OF THE WEEK ARE IN
CONSIDERABLE
Early In the Session Some Stand Is Taken
» Against Reactionary Tendency—Bank
Statement Exercises No Stimulating
Effect
NEW YORK, June 25—The stock mar
ket made some stand early today against
the reactionary tendency yesterday, but
yielded at the close and showed small
net losses on the day. The result is to
leave the week's changes quite small.
The dealings today were indifferent to
the point of lifelessness. A fractional
rise in Union and Southern Pacific and
a steady tone of the Wabashs indi
cating the passing of the effect of the
remission of the interest on the deben
ture A bonds were the encouraging fac
tors.
Free offerings of Consolidated Gas and
of the Metropolitan Traction stocks were
unsettling influences. The bank state
ment contained no great surprise, but
it went entirely without stimulating ef
fect. The increase in cash reserves was
nearly in accord with calculations and
brought that item to a new high level.
The $17,000,000 loan increase wants only
to be once repeated to bring that item
to a record lev. 1
Deposits Are Enormous
Today's deposits at $1,143,314,100 ex
ceed by over $11,000,000 the previous rec
ord made early last month Just previous
to the withdrawal of government deposits
from the banks for the Panama . canal
payment. Greatly curtailed demand for
money in the channels of trade is a clear
induction from this condition of money.
But growing discussion is given to the
part played by bids for deposits by the
banks and trust companies in causing this
condition, and the soundness and health
fulness of the policy in such a money
market as that existing at present. Totals
sales of bonds, par value, $1,347,000.
Bond prices have moved upward dur
ing the week, with the exception of some
of the speculative issues. United States
new 4s registered have declined % per
cent on call during the week.

CLOTH MARKET IMPROVES
Manchester Market Shows Better Trade
Conditions After Steady Decline
MANCHESTP]R. June 26.—A pause in
the downward course of the price of cot
ton and the more reasonable figures de
manded by sellers fatiEtated the transac
tions of business in .several directions in
the cloth market last week. There was
more trade in higher grades for China,
but the improvement did not extend to
bleaehings.
A good inquiry for India transpired and
there was some increase, in trade, but the
offers generally wer* impracticable, ap
parently based on then#w crop quotations.
The trade for South 'America was quieter
and it was better for the Levant.
Yarns were Irregular. For the home
trade American crops had a fair inquiry,
principally for delivery in later months,
but the erratic movements! in cotton fre
quently rendered negotiations difficult.
The turnover was below the average.
BUSINESS AT LOW EBB
Trade on the London Stock Exchange Re
mains Dull
LONDON. June 26.— Throughout the
past week business on the stock exchange
remained at a very* low ebb and there was
little change in the situation since the last
weekly report, though there prevailed a
growing confidence that business would
Improve steadily and without sensational
features.
As far as the week just closed I s con
cerned Americans formed the only bright
spot, showing an improvement which was
based on the good crop report* and on
other favorable indications.
The Japanese issue-, rettwdfeed dull
owing to a top-heavy bull account which
wa.s built up In consequence of repeated
Japanese victories. Russian biKids had a
sharp_ rally after the sensational dash of
the Vladivostok squadron and its escape
without injury.

WHEAT IS UP A CENT
DEMAND FOR NEWLY HARVESTED
GRAIN IS ACTIVE
Everything Favors the Bulls at th* Start
Off and They Have Little to Complain
of Taking the Day as a Whole —Corn
Loses Again
CHICAGO. June 26—Talk of an ac
tive demand in the Southwest for new
ly harvested grain was the chief cause for
a net advance of It today in the price of
September wheat. Corn is off %#&c.
Oats are unchanged. Provisions are down
2%c to 12%e.
As the result of a variety of bullish in
fluences a strong tone prevailed in wheat
at the opening. The most prominent fac
tors were higher cables, decreased ship
ments from Australia and additional rain
in sections of the Sojithwest, where har
vesting is in progress. Initial quotations
on September were up to %c at 80% c
to 81c. Trading was light during the
early part of the session, more from a
scarcity of offerings than from any lack
of demand. Shorts and commission
houses were the principal bidders. The
selling was largely by scalpers. As the
-sessioji advanced a considerable amount
of bearish news was received, but it had
little apparent effect, the market retain
ing its opening firmness. On the other
hand traders took particular note of all
bullish items. Continental advices told
of great damago to wheat in Caucasia. An
estimate on the world's shipments for
the week placed the amount at about
8,000,090 bu, a low figure compared with
recent shipments. Apparently the most
influential factor of late trading was a
report of a Minneapolis crop expert. In
referring to harvesting operations in the
Southwest this authority stated that the
country milling demand was so urgent
that there was little likelihood of any
lew wheat reaching Chicago during July.
The effect of this report was to give add
ed impetus to buying. During the last
hour September advanced to 81 %c on the
purchase of several million bu by North
western houses. There was some reaction
from the top, but the market closed
strong with September'at 81% c. July
ranged between 85% c and Se^e. and clos
ed with a gain of %c at 85% c.
Clearances of wheat and flour were
equal to 77,800 bu. Primary receipts 303.
--600 bu. compared with 304.300 bu a year
ago. Minneapolis. Duluth and Chicago re
ported receipts of 37t> cars, against 301"
cars last week and 240 cars a year ago.
Corn Is Weak
Heavy selling of the July option by ele
vator interests caused weakness in corn.
Owing to ideal weather conditions and
to a break in cash values, sentiment in
speculative trading was inclined to bear
ishness. The market opened firm on high
er cables and smaller receipts than esti.
mated. On the advance offerings were
liberal, and with comparatively little de
mand prices soon started downward. The
close was almost at the lowest point of
the day. July beirg down half a cent at
47? s c. after selling between 47% c and
48\e. September opened %c to % eta l4 c
higher at 48% cto 48%(fi,48%e. sold be
tween 48^c and 48% c and closed at 48»4
(S4B%c. Local receipts were 344 cars, with
21 of contract grade.
The fluctuations in wheat and corn had
little effect on the oat market, prices hold
ing steady with a very small range. Ow
ing to a scarcity of offerings trade was
light. After selling between 38% c and
38%0, July closed with a loss of %<g>l4c
at 38% c. September opened unchanged to
hi@\ic higher at 31&4 cto 31~5@32c. sold
within the opening range and closed at
the low point. Local receipts were 130
cars.
Provisions were firm early on smaller
receipts of hogs and higher prices at the
yards. Packers were fair purchasers ear
ly in the day. Later in the session the
market eased off on profit-taking. Pros
pects of more liberal receipts of hogs on
x Monday were a late bear influence. At
the close September pork was down 12% c
at $13.2*% c. September lard was off 2%(&'
5c at $7.22%@7.25. Ribs were down oc'at
$7.77%. Estimated receipts for Monday:
Wheat. 5 cars; corn. 436 cars; oats, 99
cars; hogs, 33,000 head. .
