After nearly twenty years the Chicago
and Pittsburg teams, Of the National
League, made a new record for long
games at Chicago recently, when they
played nineteen innings. The longest
game previous to this, and perhaps the
most interesting game ever played, took
place at Providence in August, 1882,
when Detroit and Providence went for
seventeen innings without scoring. and
Providence finally won the game with q
home run over the fence.

An advance in the price Of
July corn to soc last week
put it to the highest figure
Chicago.

since 1892 The high point was lSc
above the close Of the previous week.
and 32c higher than the low point on the
decline less than a month ago. 1t was
clear case of squeezing the shorts. The
close was SIC. The trade paid little at
tention to the government report on corn,
although it is very bearish. The cOndi-
tion of S7.5 is fairly low for July, but
there is an unprecedented acreage. 3d.
1900, which, figured by States based
on government conditions, indicates a
yield Of 2,49O,OOO. 900 bushels, the lars-
est on record. The surplus States have a
prospect of 1,67S. 100000 bushels, or dOu-
Bile last years. With old reserves light.
and likely to he exhausted by the time
the new crop begins to move, there Is
feeling among traders that corn is not
likely to average much below 5Oc.
Sentiment among wheat traders as to
the future course Of values is mixed.
Some Of the sharpest and best operators
are friendly to the bull side. There are
also a number of shrewd men who be-

throughout the winter wheat country
have delayed the movement and deterior-
ated the quality. There is prospect Of

are the lowest on record with the excep-
ton Of the Letter year. 1S97-9S. The de-

During the week top cattle sold at

Hogs sold 22isc higher than the previous
week, the highest since March. 1893. and
the highest July in twenty years. Thee

sold poorly during the week. Cattle re-

New York.

~ Good news predomi-
New YORK mates. although unfavorable
proved drawback
at many points and new labor disputes
arose. There is less than the customary
midsummer idleness in manufacturing in
dustries, despite the scarcity of fuel.
Commodity prices are fully maintained.
Railway earnings thus far available for
June average 80 per cent larger than last
years and 2O.6 per cent above those of
1900 The foregoing is from the week
ly trade review of X. G. Dun & Go. 1t
continues:
Statistics Of pig iron production on July
are somewhat surprising. According to
the Iron Age the weekly output was at a
new high record of 352. 500 tons, notwith-
standing the shortage of fuel. In steel
the situation is mixed, heavy lines fall
ing further behind orders, while num-
Der Of rod, wire and nail mills in the
Pittsburg region have shut down for the
usual vacation. Structural steel and rail-
way supplies are urgently sought, so
much more business being placed that
activity is assured well into 1908.
New England shoeshops are more fully
engaged than at any previous time this
year. Union leather is firm. but domestic
buyers are taking little hemlock, the best
inquiry being for export. Upper leather
is active at the West. A large purchase
of packer hides has strengthened the tone
at Chicago, while Texas hides arrive
more freely and concessions are made.
Export orders for cotton goods are still
disappointing. and the home demand is
quiet, yet mills are well occupied. At
the South there is a disposition to delay
spinning until the new crop begins to
move, and this tendency is also reported
in England. In woolens the best feature
is the recorder business in heavy weights,
quick delivery being desired.
Corn has again been the prominent fea-
ture Of the markets for domestic staples.
Spectators at the West secured control
Of the 100000 bushels in the visible
supply, and compelled the short interests
to cover contracts at disastrously high
prices. Farmers reserves are evidently
Insignificant. for attractive prices do not
bring out even fair volume Of receipts.
Wheat was quiet and strong.
Liabilities of commercial failures for
the first week Of July amounted to ST.
57O.35S, of which S4S3, ,04S were in man
ufacturing, S636, ,416 in trading and $3.50
O94 in other lines. Failures for the week
numbered 1913 in the United States,
against 20S last year, and 10 in Canada,
against q year ago.
