CHICAGO, July 6.-Fear for the safety
of the spfng wheat crop added sc per
bushel to the value Of that cereal today.
Corn declined kc, oats advanced &c, and
provisions closed unchanged to nc high
er for pork.
Notwithstanding lower cables from Liv
erpool and the continent, VIII at opened
strong and continued advance to the
close. Heavy rains, which fell in the
Northwestern states yesterday would, it
was feared, irreparably damage the
growing crop of spring wheat. 1t was
reported that previous to yesterdays
downpour too much rain had already
fallen and the usual heavy receipts were
lost sight of for the time being.
Chicago received 242 cars against none
last year. Minneapolis and Duluth re-
ceipts were 52f cars, against A last year.
Toledo reported Sc car loads of new
wheat. all grading contract Receipts at
primary points footed up 10000, com
pared with 117,600 a year ago. Atlantic
port clearances, wheat and -four, were
equal to only $4,000 bushels.
IN spite of the fact that the foreign
markets showed no tendency to recover,
their early losses, the local market,
which opened unchanged at 7S3s@73A for
September, gradually improved until 7412c
was paid shortly before the close. Mod
crate profit taking caused a reaction to
74A @743sc as the session ended. Cash
sales in this market were reported at
100000 bushels.
Corn ruled strong during the early
part of the session, largely in sympathy
with wheat. Predictions were freely
made that receipts would fall off sharp
ly from now on, but 1,170 cars arrived
here today. Primary points received l.
$4,000, nearly double the amount year
ago today. Atlantic port clearances were
$4,000 bushels. Local professionals who
have been supporting the market for sew
eral weeks took advantage of the bull
ishness to unload their long lines and the
early gain of CSC was more than wiped
out. September opened steady at 1890,
advanced to 34Ac, and declined to 1880
33$4c at the close.
Oats sympathized largely with wheat
and were helped considerably by clear
ances against their cash sales, and
caused a rather firm feeling throughout
all the options. September opened steady
at 205sc, sold up to H1sc, and closed at
2Oa4@2O7sc.
Provisions were dull and featureless.
None of the prominent traders seemed
inclined to do business. September pork
opened sc higher at sS.4714, sod at $3.50,
and closed at $685. September lard
closed at $3.50; September ribs, $3.50
Estimated receipts tomorrow: Wheat,
60 cars; corn, 400 cars; oats, las cars;
hogs, 5000 head.
The leading futures ranged as follows:

MARKET FOR SECURITIES TOOK
A REACTIONARY ATTITUDE
AND CLOSED FIRM
DECLINE WAS NOT CHECKED
Last Prices of Most Railroad Stocks
Were the Lowest, and Net Losses
for the Most Prominent Railroads
on the List Average About One
Especially Weak

NEW YORK, July 6-The market for
stocks was reactionary today. Last
prices of most railroad stocks was the
lowest and net losses for the most prom
iuent railroad stocks in the list average
about ~. These include the great trunk
lines, Pennsylvania and New York Cen
trail and about all of the grangers. There
were spasmodic advances in a number
of the industrial specialties, but those
were not held, the last prices showing re-
actions of between one and two points.
Realizing sales were in evidence with
the opening, but were we'll absorbed in a
very active market, business continuing
of large proportions pretty we'll up to
noon.
The weakness of the grangers was
especially notable, and was undoubtedly
associated with the reports of too heavy
rains III the Northwest and of consequent
damage to the spring wheat crop. The
frmness in wheat was coincident. The
damage in the southwest of floods was
also depressing, though to a less extent.
Undoubtedly there was a large short
interest closed out yesterday and today s
market lacked that sustaining force. Rut
the most potent influence towards reac-
ton was the continued firmneSS OF
money. The promised abundance of
funds to flow into New York from July
disbursements of dividends and interest
did not niaterialiZe and interior eX-
changes continued to drain New York.
The rate for call money was near 6 per
cent all day. A stiffening London money
also caused some uneasness lest 1t
might lead to a renewal Of gold exports.
The prevalent weakness OF railroad
stocks was in contrast to a sharp up
ward movement in number of industri-
ais specialties, Sugar being most promi-
nent. Strength was also shown by the
Tobacco stocks, Steel and Wire, Tin
Plate, Tennessee Coal, Anaconda, Man
haitian, Rubber, Leather preferred and
Cotton Oil. In the outside market, Anal
gamated Copper was strong, selling at
963s. All of the specialties, however,
showed reactions in the late dealings.
Bonds showed decreased activity and
price changes were mixed. Total sales,
par value 50, $50, 0C0 United States IS and
the new As registered advanced Il and
the 5s Is in the bid price The old As reg
declined Il.
