5s,OoOooO last year. Prices on the other

side were off a trifle this morning.
The weather in the Northwest is fair
but hot. There are some reports of hot
winds in North and South Dakota. Pri-
mary receipts, $4,000; shipments, $4,000.
1t is said that there is an enlarged milling
demand. The Price Current" report ere

The times., 1899-07-21


Prices advanced healthily, and buying
was more spirited yesterday afternoon
than at any time before this week. The
close was strong at the top prices of the
day. IL is difficult 10 determine If this
strength is likely to extend further or not
The general situation has been favorable
to advances at any time that the leaders
OF the market cared TO take up cam
paign. A great steadiness OF undertone
has shown very clearly that there was III
tie If any selling by important interests.
The general opinion has been, however,
that the midsummer hot season would
likely prevent any large business or any
thing important In the way OF advances
this month. II there is TO be any material
change from the duliness of the past few
DAYS II will be in the way Of a surprise.
The average trader will be inclined 10
take profits on point or two advance,
and it is probable that this viii be the
most profitable policy at present. That
there is to be q bullish market later in
the year, at some time before October,
few careful students Of the situation doubt.
The reasons for this are many and appar-
entity conclusive. One of the most i'm
portant OF these from technical point
OF view Is that this will be the last op-
portunity for a good bull campaign, and
higher prices before the political disturb
snces dispose the average holder to sell
stocks. The industriais particularly must
be marked up in price during this time
If they are to be sold to the public at
high prices, as the insiders undoubtedly in
tend TO sell.
