CHICAGO, Aug. 1.-THE best wheat
market in months developed today.
The cash price is up SC a bu. For the
September option there was an advance
of 219c, and the closing was steady
within sc of top figures. The low crop
estimates, light receipts and better
financial outlook were the main rea-
sons. Corn broke on the rains over the
West. and only scored a net gain of &c.
Provisions were depressed by large re-
ceipts of hogs. leaving off 2Oc down for
pork and 1870 for lard and ribs.
Wheat at the opening was about go

reacted 5s@5sc, advanced l5sc, eased off

There were lS,OU0 hogs at the Yards,

provision market started weak, and
although it received some support at

tendency was toward easlness. Lard
was the article principally offered. The

and Hatley the buyer of lard. The

RATES MUST STAND.
Omaha Roads Rate of $19.8O
From St. Paul to st. Louis.


CHICAGO, Aug. ia decision was
handed down by the chairman of the
Western Passenger association today,
declaring that rate inserted by the
Omaha road in the st. Paul's worlds
fair special rate sheet must stand
though it was irreguiarly inserted.
The rate in question is one of $3.50
from st. Paul to st. Louis via Council
Bluffs.
1t is made up of the combination of
the S10.90 rate from ST. Paul to Council
Bluffs and the 50 worlds fair rate from
Council Bluffs TO st. Louis. Since it
was inserted in the st. Paul sheet rule
has been adopted by the association that
all rates published in joint rate sheets
should be agreed rate. The adoption of
that rule necessarily legalized the
Omaha roads rate, and it would not be
competent for the chairman to order its
withdrawal.
Eastern roads are extremely anxious
that it should be clearly and universally
understood that the action of their
general managers at yesterdays meet
ing in regards to the worlds fair rates
and arrangments is final. 1t is not SUBJ
Ject to reconsideration or possible
change. The roads have had prepared,
however, an official statement of the
rates and arrangements made for
special worlds fair excursion trains
which will be maintained in force until
the end OF the fair period.

Tho Clearing House Certificates Meet
With Universal Approval.
NEW York, June 16.-The clearing house
loan committee met this morning but did
not issue any certificates. After The meet
ing members of the committee declined to
give any information as to whether any ap-
plioations has been received for the GER
tif1cntes. The action OF the clearing house
association In deciding to issue loan ce,-
ticates was warmly commended on every
hand to-day. and IL IL conceded that the
announcement of their resolution had
very beneficial effect. Thero YVES slight
falling of in the shipments of cur rency; it
WAS estimated the amount would fall good
deal short of $1,O00.O00. The demand for
correnoy has had the effect of increasing
the amount Of free gold in tho treasury,
which last night exceeded $92. COO00O, q
gain of more than $2,0OO.0O0 over last
week. But for the fact that the treasury
u would show big gain in legal tenders, a
large amount OF which have been received
from banks for currency.
PHILADELPHIA, June 16.-Pursuant to Ru-
thority granted by she clearing house COM
mittee. the association began to-day the
issuance of loan certificates bearing six per
cent interest to such banks as require them.
1t could not be learned whether any banks
took advantage of the authority, but as
this action mainly was In the nature of
precaution against future stringenoy, il is
not believed any loans were asked.
