CHICAGO GRAIN MARKET.

CHICAGO, June PA decline at Liverpool. where an advance expected on the rise here yesterday, started wheat weak. Septem- ber opened at from 671kc down to 67ssc and slid off to 67hc in a very few minutes. the latter showing I@1c decline from yesterdays final price. There plenty of buyers at the concession so readily offered and there was soon enough of it to cause a quick recovery to 6TNc. In addition to the bearsh influence of lower foreign markets was the perfect con- dition of the weather throughout the region where harvesting is in progress. Accounts of crop prospects from the spring wheat region were of the most epcoura ging kind. On this prices sagged The market continued to drop on advices from St. Louis and seven cars of No. red had arrived there. The trade was more or less nervous over Armour's position His large interest in cash wheat led many to think that he might undertake to manipulate the futures in the bull interest. The selling was rather cautious and more in the way of liquidation than in short selling. The lowest prices of the day were made near the close. July left off 1Ac lower and September 1A41asc lower.
 Fine weather caused a drop at the start. Holders of puts bought on the break and pre- vented any further decline during the first came heavy corn followed, closing h@%c

BRADsTREETs REVIEW.

NEW YORK, June 4.-Bradstreets to-mor- row will say: Reflection of the advanced stage of the season Is found in a perceptible quiet ing down of distrbutive trade in many parts of the country, and accompanying this have been announcements of the fixing of periods of annual shut downs in many industrial lines, but significant of the changed conditions which now animate and control business, as com pared with corresponding periods in previous years, the continued large gains in the volume of bank clearings over preceding years, quite favorable reports from most of the coun- try's leading industries notably iron and steel. in which next years wage scales are being adjusted with unexamped ease. comparatively heavy exports of cereals and the products from most of the leading ports, and rather less than the usual shading of prices common at this into the midsummer period. Following the the demoralizaton in wheat prices come a more steady tone and the growth of a feeling that perhaps the bear movement in prices may be overdone was the bull" movement which eliminated month ago.
 With the exception of a rather spotted con- dtion of the whole crop in different States chiefly as the result of too much moisture the crop situation in the country as whole, has rather improved. Less is heard of extravagant wheat crops. Sut the production of crop of wheat in excess of all previous totals Is ex- pected.
 The iron situation has not developed suff- cienty to allow of any very pronounced fore casts of next seasons business. Concessions made by employers. however in this line would seem to indicate confidence in a continuance of large business at least at prevailing prices, which 1t should not be forgotten, are in numer- ous instances higher than they were a year ago.
 The tone of cotton manufacturing has quite perceptby improved. this being due perhaps on one hand to the placing of large amounts of bleached goods at price concessions and to the development in some degree of the Eastern demand for summer fabrics. Less satisfaction Is expressed Tn the woolen goods trade and business here is classed as slow and unprofit- able, with wool refecting dullness in manufacturing and in unchanged Eastern quo- tations.
 Cereal exports somewhat smaller than in recent weeks, but are still in excess of preceding years. Wheat shipments for the week aggregate 3,799 470 bushels. as against f. 396 GOO bushels last week. but compared with 2. 156. 900 bushels in this week year ago 2os3. 900 bushels in 1896. 19460 900 bushels in 1895 and 1 975 900 bushels in 1894. Corn exports show a very slight falling off. aggregating for the week 3, ,902 521 bushels against 4.106, 900 bushels last week, 900 bushels year ago. 1 236, 00c bushels in 1896 and SS4. 900 bushels in 1895.
 Business failures for the week in the United States are abnormal numbering 220 as com pared with POT last week. 215 this week year ago. 2ls in 1896 and 215 in 1895.
 Business failures in the Dominion of Canada this week number 19. compared with 19 last week. r in this wek year ago, 19 in 1896 ana 2S in 1895.
