Murphy 6 Co.'s Grain Letter.

Chicago, July 10.-The market was ac- tive this morning and very much steadier than had been expected It opened at an advance, encouraged by the steadier for eign market, and was particularly strong in the northwest, prices there advancing l cent, while other markets advanced 1h to %c. Owing to the absence of demorali- zation abroad and the fact that the coarse grain market was decidedly strong, the opening was rather encouraging. In the local market there were a few adverse crop reports from the northwest The Illi- nois state bulletin reported wheat off in quality and yield. The Michigan report made the wheat yield 10 bushels per acre, against last year. The British crop re- port made conditions of wheat S7.6, bar ley T.3 and oats I'll. Wheat was less ac- tive at midday and eased off little but closed very firm.
 Corn trade was active this morning and prices excited and very strong, advancing &c at New York and 1Ac at the west, but partially reacted on realizing.
 Dry weather in the corn states was again reported and serious advices came from the southwest, but the Iowa state report is good. Illinois reports corn in fine condition and Michigan makes the state average S4 The damage already done in the southwest is believed to be serious. Corn was active all day. Good outside realizing was reported in the west and there were moderate contract deliveries here. Prices reacted sharply but closed firm.
 The trade in hog products was active and stronger. Provisions at the close were very steady.

 Birmingham, July 10.-Liverpool was again better than expected and the wealth CT map failed to show any more than light showers west of the Mississippi but private reports from Galveston Houston and San Antonio stated that splendid rains had fallen in those sec tfons and prices receeded twelve to four teen points on the early trading on with drawal of bull support and short selling Uncertainty over the truth of these re- ports and a lack of definite information as to the amount and distribution of the rain caused some uneasness on the part of the early sellers and really followed rush on the part of shorts to cover The market was nervous and Irregular closing easy at nineteen points off on July, ten off on August and 15 to IS off on the rest of the list Weather conditions west of the Mississippi con tinued the chief factor in the market The Galveston district today according to the weather map received only 10 inches. while Little Rock got nothing though the weekly government report indicated the need of rain in both sections There Is considerable difference of opinion as to the rainfall in Texas. The amount and distribution of this is still unknown and upon this one point the immediate future of the market hinges.

 Liverpool remained unchanged on spots and deliveries lost points and at the close were feverish.
 It still remains that no general fall of rain has yet occurred over the entire drought-stricken section, and such will be required in the near future to maintain the decline. The effect of the partial rains is manifest in the course of today's mar ket and indicates what would occur If a | heavy, root soaking fall of rain should come over the western section of the cot ton belt.
