and ribs SC.
Diminishing northwest receipts and
unexpected strength at Liverpool start
ed wheat strong. September opened 1s
@Ac higher at 7o1a @7O5sc. Longs
were disposed to take profits, however,
and the price soon slipped of TO 7Ossc.
The decline was checked by reports OF
damage to the spring crop by hot
wave in the Dakotas. closely followed
by heavy rains. The bears tried to get
back former holdings and as competi-
ton was keen, September rose quickly
to 71ssc. Realizing during the last
hour, however, caused a decline to Tic
at the close. An estimate by BeerDohm
OF this years yield in Roumania, only
90, 600 coo bushels, compared with &c.
coo. 900 bushels last year, helped TO sus-
tain the market. Chicago received 1l6
cars and Minneapolis and Duluth sos.
Primary western market receipts were
918, 900 bushels compared with 1900
bushels list year. Atlantic port clear
ances of wheat and -four equalled 450,-
600 bushels. Cash demand slow.
Corn was moderately active but some
what depressed by continued liquida-
ton induced largely by fine weather
and excellent crop reports. A moder-
ate advance was scored near the end
in sympathy with wheat. Receipts 433
cars. September opened 1sc higher at
32Mc, declined to &c, advanced to $3.50
and closed with selling at 3212c.
An early drive by scalpers caused a
slump in oats, but the loss was firmly
regained on covering. Receipts 100
cars. September opened unchanged at
1879 @19bc.
An oversupply of hogs and wheat
weakened provisions. About half the
early decline was recovered on buying by
packers. September pork opened 7120

The markets here were fairly active

bank to raise its discount rate, owing
to the large gold arrivals. The Trans

Stocks-To-days stock market con-
tinued narrow and professional, but
there was an improvement in the tone
of speculation. In the late market a
rather active buying movement and
prices rose to the top level of the day,
gaining a point or over DIS compared
with last nights prices in many cases.
There was an early reaction which was
encouraged by the violent slump OF p
extreme drop of points in Consolida-
ted Gas There seemed TO be an entire
absence OF commission house buying
and London, although prices of Amerl-
cans had been advanced therefore re-
Trained from operating here. The course
of the foreign exchange market with
reference to the easier money condl-
tions abroad was closely watched and
when sight sterling and cables were
seen to be yielding it afforded consider
able relief from apprehension of gold
exports. The fact that the Bank OF
England refrained from advancing its
rate of discount was taken at that point.
Money worked easier in New York, but
continued above the rates prevailing
at interior points. There was some
growth OF a conviction that money was
not TO become cheap for a considera-
HE period yet, owing to the needs OF
the very active trade and the coming
movements of the crop. The heavy in
creases of banking deposits at some OF
the large financial centres of the coun-
try are understood to be due to the
great combination Of industries and the
resulting readjustments in business
methods which have, it is believed, re-
duced resources at some smaller points
in a degree corresponding to the in
crease at the great centres. There was
some continued uneasiness over evil
dences of unrest amongst wage carriers,
Also The strength of the local traction
stocks helped to dissipate this selling.
Brooklyn Rapid Transit and Manhattan
gained about point net and cash sales
of Metropolitan were made at 81 over
last night. This stock also sold ex-
rights of subscription TO new stock at
uniform level Of 13 points below the
cash sales. Consolidated Gas recovered
all Of its earlier loss and New
York Air Brake all but two
points. The early strength was not
not held in some of the industrials,
notably Continental Tobacco and the
steel stocks. p G. c. & st. l.. was
marked up points on the June return
of earnings and an upward movement
in c. & o.. Missouri Pacific and Cleve-
land, {. G. q st. l.. spread to other
railroad stocks, including the grangers,

The average gain of these approxima-
ted a point. Chicago GreatWestern de-
bentures lost 1% from the last SALE
Leather preferred was in good demand.
The closing was dull but firm.

regular. Total sales par value $685.,

A Very Pleasant at Home Given in
Honor of MIR. and Mrs Strong.

The reception at Sweet Home yes
terday afternoon, given by Mr.. and
Mrs. Geo. r. Carter 10 meet Mr.. and
Mrs. II. \. Strong, was a very pleas
ant affair.
The receiving party stood under an
immense tree mauka of the residence,
with the refreshment pavilion at their
right and a background of tastefully
draped American and Hawaiian flags.
Mother Carter. who was unable to join
the party on the lawn. was at home TO
her friends in her own room where
many availed themselves of the OPP
portunity to pay their respects.
About 800 invitations were issued
for the reception, most of which We're
accepted and for two hours there was
a constant stream of guests coming
and going.
Mrs. S. G.. Wilder presided over the
coffee and Mrs. E. r. Adams over the
punch bowl, both of which it is need
less to state were we'll and artistically
served.
Many new and beautiful costumes
we've in evidence; in fact at each re-
ception of late the ladies have appear
ed morebrilliantly and tastefully at
tired than at the preceding one. The
grounds at Sweet Home are noted for
theif beautiful plants and shrubs and
many compliments were passed on
them yesterday.
A slight shower shortly after five
o'clock promised to dampen the spirits
of the guests, but luckily it blew over
without proving a drawback and the
givers of the reception can congratu-
late themselves on its having had a
decided social success.
