PRODUCE.

CHICAGO, July IA large increase
in the visible supply caused q loss of
an early advance of sc in wheat to-
day, September closing unchanged at
70A @70ac. Corn closed a shade
higher and pats A@Ac lower. Pro-
visions collapsed under the execution
of steep loss orders. Pork lost 150
1712c; lard, 10c, and ribs &c.
Unfav0rable weather in France and
Germany in connection with COM
plants of rust from the Dakotas and
larger worlds shipments than ex-
pected started wheat strong. The loss
of nearly q million bushels of wheat in
an elevator fire at Toledo added to the
bullish sentiment. September, A@%c
higher at 70Bc, sold sparingly at 11-16c
lower and advanced to 7lB@1Ac.
Speculation was slack, however, and
an increase of 1876, 600 bushels in the
visible supply was reported, the price
slipped back to 70kc. Slow cash de-
mand, improved weather in the North
went and reports that harvesting had
begun in Minnesota, also had a de-
pressing influence. There was a tenn
porary rally near the end OF the ses-
sion, but at the advance there was
more for sale than the market could
absorb and September closed with sell
ers at 70h @70Bc.
Primary western receipts were $685.
600 bushels, compared with $4,000
bushels last year. Atlantic port clear
ances of wheat and flour equalled 1885,
600 bushels. Chicago received l26 cars
and Minneapolis and Duluth sos. The
worlds shipments of wheat and flour
for the week amounted to 7,lO4,000
bushels and the quantity on ocean
passage decreased 1850, 600 bushels.
An increase of 693, 900 bushels in the
visible supply wiped out a feeble rally
in corn. Cash business was curtalled
by the smallnes sof country offerings.
Receipts, GA cars. September opened
unchanged at 31M@31Bc, advanced to
32c declined to 31Ac, and losed at
31Bc.
Favorable crop reports and large re-
ceipts weakened oats. The visible
supply decreased $4,000 bushels. Re-
ceipts, 212 cars. September opened I'M
changed at 1890, advanced to 1850
1910, declined to 1880, and closed at
1925 @19hc.
Better prices at the yards started
provisions firm at a moderate advance.
Selling by packers, however, started a
decline which met numerous stop loss
orders and a decided slump followed.
September pork opened a shade higher
at 1920, advanced to s9.221a, declined
to $500 and closed at $9.02h. Septem-
Der lard opened unchanged at $5.571a,
rose to $5.57h@5.6O, declined to $5.45@
5.471a and closed with buyers at
$5.471R. September ribs opened I'M
changed at $5.221a, advanced to S5.25.
declined to $5.12h, and closed at
$5.17h.
Estimated receipts Tuesday:
Wheat, 1856 cars; corn, 1,010; oats,
375 cars; hogs, $4,000 head.
The leading futures ranged as follows:

NEW YORK, July 24.-There was
little change in the stock market to-
day, uneasiness continuing at the same
low ebb as during last week, which was
the smallest weeks business OF the
year. A break in Consolidated Gas OF
2A and a decline of over a point IN
Sugar turned prices downward in the
morning, but the bears were not dis
posed to be aggressive. Late IN the
day an active demand developed for
New York Central, which lifted that
stock ~ from the early low points.
The whole market hardened in SYM
patty, Pennsylvania being consplcu-
ously affected. The early fractional
losses were thus wiped out and final
prices were a shade above those OF
Saturday as a rule. There were a few
wide movements in the prices OF lndl-
yidual stocks. Manhattan, Federal
Steel, American Linseed Oil preferred,
and Lead were heavy at n time, and
General Electric fell off a fraction, but
later rose over 2 points, closing at
121M. Pittsburg, C. c. & st. L., St.
Louis Southwestern preferred, the Iowa
Central stocks, the Pressed Sseel Car
stocks and a few others made some
display of strength. The money mar
kets of the world show continued re-
taxation from the recent strained dis
counts in London and Berlin, declining
an additional fraction, but while anx-
iety over the money outlook is for the
moment relieved, there is a general
feeling that higher rates will rule IN
the near future. Local money lenders
are disinclined to lend money on time
at present rates, believing that higher
rates will prevail later. The activity
of bushes in this country, coupled
with the demand for money to move
the crops is expected to furnish en-
plyoment for all available funds. Ow-
ing to the activity CT trade both in En-
gland and Germany, and the large
speculative commitments at Paris and
at Berlin, there will undoubtedly be a
demand to borrow the credits establish
ed by the United States on account OF
food exports. Such loans were made
on a large scale last year, but it is evid-
ent that higher rates Of interest will
be required to prevent the calling home
of this country's credits during the
coming months, owing to the inreased
opportunities for employment of money
at home. 1t is this situation which has
caused a halt in securities both in this
country and abroad.
Bonds were dull and marrow to-day
