September oats closed 1s@Ac higher. Cash

An advance in live hogs product conveyed
firmness to provisions at the start, but trad

2I2c lower, September lard and ribs each a

steady.

New York, July 7.-(Special)-The i'm
provement in Liverpool today caused prices
to open here a few points higher, but news
of good rains at Dallas and other points m
Texas led to liberal selling at the advance.
The improvement was lost and prices for
most of the months closed rather lower than
yesterday. August open ed at 720, declined
to 7.15 and closed at ZIG, with the tone
steady. The leading German bear, whose
conversion to the bull side we lately mem
toned, seems to have become a bear again.
He was a heavy and persistent seller today.
The crop accounts from all parts of the
