Prices and Prospects Of the Trade in
Cereals

CHICAGO, July 9.-Fine weather for har-
vesting and threshng started wheat weak.
The Michigan state crop report gave the
prospective yield at 100000 bushels more
of wheat than was raised by that state
last year. The government weekly crop
bulletin for South Dakota said a decided
Improvement in the condition of wheat had
occurred since the preceding report, and
the harvest promised to be ten days to
two weeks earlier than usual. Thresaing
was reported to be quite general through
out the winter wheat country and Fhe
prospect was for a much more general
movement of the crop to market within The
next ten days. This. together with the
slackness of speculation, caused liquida-
ton, and short selling. Later there was
a recovery in September on higher Liver
pool cables. which started the early short
sellers to covering. But the fact that free
shipments of new wheat were predicted for
the near future and a generally bearish
sentiment which could not be shaken off,
caused the price to decline once more near
the close July ruled stronger than the
paid for the cash article. July closed I'M
changed, and September lost 1s@sc.
Lower cables, improved weather and crop
reports, liquidation of longs and lack of
foreign demand, caused an easier feeling
in corn. July declined &c.
Fluctuations in oats were narrow. July
left off unchanged.
An over-supply of hogs and lower prices
at the yards caused a concession in prrovis,
ions. There was fair cash demand. and
shipments of meat were liberal. Pork rest
ed TIC lower, lard lost 21245c, and ribs
closed unchanged.

Conditions as Shown by Transaction.
on Wall Street


NEW YORK, July 9.-The bullish senti-
ment on the stock exchange was unmistak-
able today and carried prices aggressively
upward during the two hours session, rout-
ing the bears and defeating their rather
feeble efforts to work a reaction. Some pro-
fessional traders were skeptical about the
character of the buying of the last two
days. regarding it as a maneuver to attract
outside buying to realize on, and they at
tempted to check the advancing tendency
by renewing yesterdays attack on the coal
ers. This group of stocks proved easy VIC
tins on account of the demoraized condi-
ton of the anthracite industry, owing to
the increasing competition Of gas as fuel
and the extreme cheapness of bitumnous
coal. The losses ranged from III to 212.
This drive against the coalers did, in fact,
unsettle the market, and induced some
profit taking on today's advance But the
character of the buying al the decline made
1t evident that the stocks absorbed during
the last two days had been taken for some
thing more than fractional turn In prices.
The check to the advance brought only
small offerings which were easily absorbed,
and the market was soon moving upward
again under the influence of the persistent
and urgent demand for the Vanderbilts.
The buying of New York Central was most
price was not as pronounced as in some
of the allied roads Buying elsewhere in
the pit was less urgent, though it was
good, part of it evidently being covering
of short contracts put out earlier in the
day. The bank statement was regarded
as favorable, and helped on the advance.
Some effort was necessary to sustain prices
to the close in the face of one point break
in Sugar, but the close generally was firm,
at the top prices, net gains ranging from
a fraction to 8 per cent.
The bond market was fairly strong.

A Travelling Lumber Saleswoman

A New York lumberman says that in the
course of his business experiences he has
known a number of women engaged in the
same line of trade and doing well. One
woman was a travelling saleswoman and
another took her husbands position at the
head of the yard at his death. Both were
clever women doing as well as men could
do in similar positions. The Lumberman's
Review now states in its personal column
that there is 1.-THE latest thing in lumber
DOM" in Minnesota, travelling saleswo-
man, Miss Fannie Shannon. The young
woman makes her headquarters at Mime
apolis and sells cutters for one firm and
shingles for another. She has been on the
road two months and is said to be very sue
cessful.-New York Times.

payments on war account, but its receipts
for the reason named, are in excess of it's
disbursements. The effect Is to reduce the
surplus of the local banks, and that is what
the statement shows. The loss has been
greater than expected, for the banks have
gained through the interior movement The
passed its maximum, and domestic ex-
change has declined sharply at interior
centers. The situation can only be de-
scribed as favorable. The surplus reserves
while the award of the new loan this week
will create more or less confusion, nothing
more than a temporary disturbance is an
tcpated. The fact that not much over
one-fourth of the whole amount has been
taken in $500 bonds. or untler, makes 1t
easy for the treasury to regulate the pc
in installments So senaroted as TO mini
mize the effect on the money market.

Financial Review

NEW YORK, July s.-The New York
Financier says:
A notable decrease in surplus reserves
is the feature of the statement of the New
York banks for the week ending july 9Th.
Operations with the treasury pending the
award of the new loan and the settlement
of July dividends are responsible in large
part for the heavy changes in the various
items The increase of $12, 691, 500 in loans
can be traced directly to several fnstitil-
lions which are carrying government mon
ey-in fact, the expansion reported by the
National City, the Hanover National and
the Chase National equals the total gain
reported for all institutions. The fact that
the increase is thus limited to few banks
precludes the idea that general business de-
mands have influenced the heavy loan
growth, although one of the banks respon-
sble for these changes has actually lost
in cash the full amount of it's loans, the
sum being within one and one-half millions
of the total loss of S. 669. 800 in ash reported
by all the banks. The deposits of the same
bank have also fallen, so that the loans in
it's case seem to have been made in cash
and withdrawn fro mthe bank. Incidents
like these tend to confuse accurate anaIy-
sis, but the general trend of the statement
is about as expected. The heavy colIec-
lions of checks given for small subscrip-
tions are causing a loss to the banks in
treasury operations. On the other hand,
the treasury is making unusually heavy

HAY TO SUCCEED DAY.
Ambassador to England to BE the Head
OF the State Department.

Washington, Aug. 13.-It seems to
be settled that Ambassador Hay is to
succeed Secretary Day when the latter
becomes chairman Of the peace com
mission. The authority for this state
ment Is unofficial, but from a source
which shows that such is the determin-
alton of the president at present. The
indications are that Secretary Days
resignation from the state department
will be in and accepted within a week.
1t is understood that the president con-
templates the appointment Of Secretary
Day to a circuit judgeship after the
work OF the peace commission has been
finished. A bill is pending in congress
for the appointment of an additional
Judge for the Sixth circuit, which in
Michigan, Ohio and Kentucky.
The district is so large that it over
taxes one Judge, and 1t is understood
that the appointment of another will be
authorized soon after the meeting Of
