A DECLINE In SILVER
To the Lowest Price Ever Known the
Principal Bear Card.
C0RDAGE SCORES A BIG GAIN
And Many Others Advance Notwithstand-
ing Bearish Influences.
A DULL BUT FIRM CLOSE ON A RALLY

NEW YORK, Aug. 12-In Wall street TO-
day, notwithstanding further engagements
of gold for export, little attention was paid
to the outgo of the precious metal, and the
decline in silver became the rallying cry of
the bears Silver has declined steadily for
the last few DAYS, and to-day reached the
lowest price ever known, ,S2H for certificates
on the Exchange and S2H for bar silver on
the street. The extreme narrowness of the
market was seen in the fact that
although there was during the forenoon
q moderately active business maintained
five stocks monopolized the greater portion
of the trading, ST. Paul, Erie, Northern Pa
cifc preferred, Atchson and Reading. The
general list was without special feature at
all points, and the day wore along without
material change except In the leaders.
A late advance was specially notable.
however, inasmuch as it was accomplished
on a much smaller volume of business than
a previous decline, and the full recovery in
railroad shares was specially gratifying to
holders of securities, as it was made by no
effort to advance the list. Gains in the In
dustrials were of another character, being
affected by manipulation of the procession
ais without news of any kind to Affect those
shares.
The market finally closed dull but firm
at the rally, most stocks showing slight
gains over the prices of last evening, while

ANOTHER WEAK SPELL,

Grains All Droop and Provisions Break
Badly Under the Lead of Pork-Pard-
ridge, the Big Bear, Becomes Aggres-
sive Again.
CHICAGO, Aug. 12-Weakness again pre-
vailed in all the pits on the Board of Trade
all of the articles dealt in was submitted to-
There was little news and the recession
seemed, to some extent at least, to be a con-
tinuance of the weakness which prevailed
yesterday. The weakness of the foreign
situation caused wheat to open a point
lower and its downward tendency was
accentuated by the temperance in
tie pit, after a long absence, OF the
big bear Pardridge, who began to offer both
September and December freely. Then.
TOO, the weather was fine, the receipts
large, the exports not encouraging and corn
conditions made investors shy and the
demand as a consequence fell short of the
offerings. New Yorkers were sellers. A
Paris cable stated that the French wheat crop
was proving larger than was expected and
that there was decided downward
tendency In prices. farmers being good
sellers.
Corn was weaker on a bearish sentiment
in the pit than because of any especially
bearish news. There was an attempt on the
part OF the longs to sustain prices, but 1t
was not successful. The feature of the mar
ket was the selling of long line, presuma,
bly, belonging to Ed Bacon 1t was sold by
Sacket and Bacon. and amounted to about
609, Geo bushels. There was selling by Bros
seau, Armour and Bartlett-Frazier. On the

COFFEE AND SUGAR HIGHER,

Butter Probable,

FRIDAY, Aug. IL.
ALI grades of roasted coffee were advanced
Hcper pound to-day, and sugar quotations
were elevated Nc The advance in sugar
was due to another marking up by refners
active market for refined, and raw is In
very strong position. Coffee statistics are
not particularly bullish, but there has not
been sufficient margin between the green
bean and roasted for some time past
Hog products continue strong and active.
The midweek advance of No on clear and
dry salt sides will doubtless be followed by
advances in other articles at the Saturday
meeting of the dealers.
Flour is active all along the line, and the
tone of the market foreshadows an early ad-
vance despite large stocks throughout the
United States and Canada. According to the
Dat Trade Bulletin, of Chicago, the stocks
of flour on hand in the United States and
Canada August l were about CAS- 900 barrels
in excess of stocks on hand August l, 1891.
The stocks of wheat August were about
13, $4,000 bushels larger than one year ago
August was about 18, ,O4O 600 bushels larger
than the supplies one year previous.
The welcome rains have improved the
prospects tor the corn crop, but prices con-
tinue to show a great deal OF strength and
on every decline there is active buy
ing on the Chicago Board of Trade by men
who believe In much higher prices. The
crowd that throng the corn "pt" daily feel
bullish. and the pig traders are proving their
sentiments by carrying large amount is which
they expect to sell at liberal advances,
Under the most favorable circumstances
possible the corn crop will still DE much less
than that of 1891, and the overwhelming
public sentiment is for higher prices than
those now prevailing. Oats, too, are likely
to sell at higher prices, as the crop is a very
small one. With wheat the case is different,
the crop being fine large one, but it should
not be forgotten that the milling prices are
unusually low.
Grain is piling up in Kansas City until
blockade is threatened. Up to the last few
days the receipts have averaged hardly 200
cars daily. This week they have averaged
600 cars.
