Birmingham. July 12-The bearish feeling that pervaded the room on government re- port and increased receipts was tempered by the better feeling abroad Liverpool ca bles closing $ for September over last nights prices. The weight that was brought to bear through St. Louis and To- cal influences succeeded in depressing wheat to put prices. 671s, but covering and buying against these privileges caused an advance of 4 cents from the lowest. Re- ceipts from now on and weather conditions will be the controlling influences, and while there is nothing to bull wheat upon, we confdentially expect to see a rally in the neighborhood of 70 cents for September option before Friday evening. These ad- vances will eliminate considerable short in terest and make the market again good sale. Corn was weak early, but recov- cred. Provisions showed surprising strength on small hog receipts and higher prices at yards.

Birmingham, July 12-London early ca bles were disappointing as well the trading here The reports that Spanish troops, like the historic Arab had quietly folded his tent and vamoosed from San tiago during the night, put a damper over trading temporarily and the crowd seemed willing to await further news. Later London sent better prices and local crowd bought specialties which caused some ad- vance in the whole list, but the selling of American Tobacco by Houseman, sup posed to be realizing caused feverishness in the list Sugar showed good strength and was rather scarce in the loan crowd around delivery hour Barring bad news that will affect list this stock <)lzs like a leader on any bull campaigns. Manhat- tan continued strong regardless of the real izing by old holders Changers and Yan- derbilts seem to be sustained and look higher, but final prices for the whole list succumbed to the uncertainty of war news and sold off about E from the highest.

New York, July 12-There was a notable disparity again today in the activity of the bond and stock market the volume cf transaction on the bond market c1ntin- hing on a laIg scale, whne tha stoei- mar ket was dill throughout In the early trading Atchison preferred continued con- spicuous. The buying was attributed to the same interest which took this stock yesterday. There was TO purpose apparent to advance the price of the stock, but all offerings were wcH absorbed. London sold quite heavily of this stock and few others bought other international stocks. The buying of the Atchison adjustments eentnucd confidently and aggressively as " sterday and led he very no:able move ment in the bond market. The price sold GIT ' per cent. from the top traders realizing, but the buying movement main- tained it's force at the decline. The de- mand for Atchison preferred diminished be- lore the close, thus removing the only movement of positive strength iii the stock market which dropped on small volume of business. The declines were most con spicuous in stocks which were advanced under manipulation last week notably Omaha and Northwest. There is an effort tG explain the diversion Of speculative ac- tiYity from the stock market into the bond Oil the ground that the new revenue law
 
 though stock sales are taxed at the rate of g per hundred per share. This almost infinitismal cost does not in fact look large in the eyes of the professional traders who buy and sell stocks for small fractional turn on the floor of the exchange. But this class of transa actions makes up but a small proportion Of the total inactive mar ket. movement in bonds upon which interest payments are contingent upon earnings is not unusual as preliminary to movement in stocks which they have claims ahead of. A large proportion of the dealings today WAS in this class Of bonds variously designated income and adjustment bonds. There was also ali active demand for newly issued bonds of reorganized con- panes which are still held in large amounts by underwriting syndcates and still unabsorbed by small investors. There was some profit taking in this speculative issue invoking slight recessions from top prices, but net gains of from 1 to over points were left in a number of issues. Total sales, $55s0,000
