WHEAT MARKET IS FORCED UPWARD Opening Spurt Causes an .Ad vance in Options—Stocks Are Dull . The following grain and stock letters were wired yesterday to St. Paul brokers by their New York and Chicago corre spondents. "i>': • • ' -; M. Doran & Co.'s Chicago. grain letter Bays: -r- . , . . . Wheat —All options sympathized . with the opening artificial spurt in old July. which was bid up when the market was bare; of offerings. ■ The tone - then became heavy and the tendency was downward. Realizing in view of adjournment till Tuesday was quite general. The news .was; much less bullish. The weather, present and prospective, showed consider able improvement. Crop advices are more optimistic and the consensus of opinion was that no material damage has .resulted from recent rains in the South west. There was considerable talk of heavy arrivals of new wheat at South western points by Tuesday. The clos ing strength was based on firmness dis played by the Kansas City market and evening up by local shorts for the holi days. • Corn—The little, flurry in July corn at the Opening was on moderate covering by local shorts and carried values up %c. but the advance was as quickly lost when the demand "was satisfied. Activity in • May and December options was consider ably enlarged and both ruled higher. Sep tember, was fairly steady. Deliveries on. July amounted to 2,500,000 bu. The weather on the whole was favorable, al though higher temperatures would be ap preciated. The demand is no better. The cash market was %c higher. ; "ais—The .- features 4 in. the oats *situa-,' t;on were the extreme weakness in the ash market,' which declined from lc to 3c bu. and slump in July. September and December were relatively steady.: while May was higher. No oats went around on delivery. The weather is fa , vorable and nothing detrimental to crop prospects 'is reported. :--->-- O'Connor & Van Bergen's stock letter Fays: . With the exception of a stampede of shorts in Metropolitan, which made an extreme advance of over 5 points, and a similarly sharp advance in Metropol itan Securities, the market held little of interest. A strong tone, however pre vailed throughout the entire day, and lew .stocks were found for sale. The ap proaching three-day holiday was of more Influence in reducing commitments on the short side than inducing sales for long account, and generally, sentiment was in clined to look for higher prices next week .Money rates over the holidays, and es pecially on the first of the month, were exceedingly easy, being practically un changed from the nomkial rates: recently existing. The unexpected declaration of '- per cent dividend on Consolidated Gas fo* - September quarter made public in the last half hour, was a disappointment .to .many, and the stock yielded easily on small transactions. The market closed dull, with Metropolitan and Consolidated l*as the exceptions ,to the general tone.

July I.—Some excited speculation In the Metropolitan Traction stocks was the feature of todays mar ket and saved it from the lethargic con dition expected an the eve of a three-day holiday. Rumors regarding these stocks have circulated for some days past with out any official or authoritative sanction to be had for them. Most of these have pointed to a plan for control in the in terest of the interborough or subway company, which already controls the ele vated lines. The rumors have extended to a possible absorption of Brooklyn Transit. In the violent rise of today a rush to buy by uncovered shorts was an im portant factor. Metropolitan has been in disfavor for a long time past on account of reports that the liquidation of the es tates of a number of millionaire capital ists would press particularly on that stock, and also because of poor showing of earnings. The consequence would nat urally be the building up of an extensive short interest and the frightened buying to cover is believed to largely explain the day's action of the stock. Other New York stocks showed some sympathy, as they always do with one another. Ameri can Car suffered a loss of 1% as a result of the passing., of its dividend. For the rest the only movements of importance were among inactive specialties. ? \ Prices Are Higher '.' Prices ruled generally above last night, but the day's. fluctuations In some of the market leaders were .. not above '%.

WHEAT IS UNCHANGED OPINIONS ON CROP DAMAGE CON FLICT AND CHECK TRADERS Firm Cables and Bullish Southwestern News Starts the Market With a Steady Tone—Depression Is Followed by a Rally . ■ - ' ; CHICAGO, July I.—Antagonistic opin-< ions as to the damage inflicted by rain in the Southwest held wheat traders in check today. Closing prices were practically identical with yesterday's tinaf figures. Corn is up %c. Oats show a loss of Provisions are 10@22%c higher. At the start a steady tone prevailed in wheat as a result of firm cables "and bull ish news from the Southwest. September was unchanged to a shade higher at 81% @ Sl%c to 81% c. Ror a time the buying of July was of urgent character, shorts be ing the principal purchasers. A total ab sence of deliveries on July contracts was the main incentive to buying. The demand for distant futures was-much better than the supply, resulting in quite .a firm un dertone. After September had touched 81% c. weakening of the market carried the price down to 80% @ 81c. There was quite liberal selling by traders who wished to even up trades over the holidays. Con siderable wheat also came out on reports of a prospective large movement in the bouthwest, 75 cars being estimated for Tuesday at St. Louis and 150 cars at Kan sas City. Later a revision of the figures making the movement much lighter caused a rally. Advices from the Southwest re garding; the condition of the crop were conflicting, but. to a large extent, the impression prevailed in the later trading that the Kansas crop will be materially reduced, and if nuns continue the quality will be poor. Shorts were good buyers late in the day, and a moderately firm tone prevailed at the close: Final figures on September were at 81%® 8114 c, a net loss of %c for the day. Clearances of wheat and flour were equal to 238.400 bu. Exports for the week, according to Bradstreefs were 1.128,000 bu. Primary receipts were 262,200 bu. compared with a holiday a year ago. Minneapolis. Duluth and Chicago reported receipts of 236 cars, against 153 cars last week. ■ Corn Comes Upr. . :':... .':■ The corn market• was strong early, but nearly all .; of the ; advance / was lost '"-■ on general liquidation of July. A noticeable feature was the. strength of the new I crop futures.- both December and * May being taken freely, by - some - of ": the . leading • in terests. Cool weather'was. the principal bull factor.' - The | general:: feeling: in the' T pit was- bullish, and but for the liquida tion of July the market would have been a strong one throughout the ' entire " ses sion. . Deliveries on July; contracts were liberal, - but V were v taken by '- strong _ in terests and the effect on the market was slight.. September opened a shade to:&c higher 'at 48%.#48%e ■ to I 48% c. sold be tween 48%@48%.c and 48% c and closed at 48% c. Local receipts • were 266 cars,with 24 of . contract grade. . ■ :. .v-, . • The feature .of • trading in: oats was the liquidation of July and a decline "■ of 1@ 2c in the ; price of ; the cash-article.-v Local holders of July ■■ sold freely, causing weak ness. •• There was enough buying of Sep tember •to : hold - that delivery steady, al . though 8 the n break : ■*&: July • had i some ; ef- . feet.

The provision 'market was strong under the influence of an ' active • demand * from shorts and /packers. A strong hog mar ket was .mainly,/-, responsible " for ; the j im proved" demand.

The British govern ment not only has taken no part in such negotiations, but apparently is ignorant that they are in progress. Premier Balfour is of the 6pinion that time fs not ripe for mediation, but to quote a person in Mr. Balfour's confi dence. "Great Britain has kept the door open for any such contingency." From the highest official sources and from the Japanese legation comes the posi tive statement that nothing whatever has resulted from the interviews be tween King Edward and Emperor Wil liam at Kiel that in any way was con nected with the Russian-Japanese war. There seems to be no doubt that re sponsible ministers seriously warne.l King Edward that he must not initiate any step in that direction with his im perial nephew. The Japanese legation made in quiries as to whether this advice was carried out and it 'was stated there was every reason to believe the war was not discussed at Kiel, except in the most informal and conservative way. Close in on Port Arthur TOKYO. July 1. — Gens. Kukushi ma and Inoguchi are to accompany Feld Marshal Oyama and Gen. Koda ma, his chief of staff, to the front on July 6. The emperor has presented his favorite horse to Gen. Kodama. It is reported with authority that there Is continual skirmishing in the vicinity of Port Arthur and that the Japanese forces are closing in on that place. It is expected that the foreign military attaches and the newspaper corre spondents assigned to the Second Jap anese army will leave for the front soon after the departure of Field Mar shal Marquis Oyama.

Burukoff, which ar rived at New-chwang from Port Ar thur Wednesday evening, brought news that Rear Admiral Withoft left Port Arthur harbor again on June 24 and gave battle to the Japanese fleet. f
