THE CHICAGO GRAIN MARKET.
Heavy Covering of Shorts in Corn and
Liquidation of Longs.

CHICAGO. Aug o.-Wbeat started
weak on large receipts, but it recov-
cred some later. because of the showery
weather Northwest, and the buying ir
those markets for Northwestern ac-
count. There were indications of show.
ers in the Northwest over Sunday, a
rather unfavorable feature. in view oi
the harvest under way. There were nc
cash sales here. Trading was not
heavy. just the ordinary midsummer
Saturday market.
Corn-Very heavy covering of shorts
and further liquidation by weak longs
constituted the principal features of the
corn market. Although September sold
half a cent lower than yesterday, It re-
covered all of the losses, and closed
with &c higher gain over yesterday.
The recovery came during the last hour,
when the smaller shorts were emulating
the example OF the large shorts who
have been covering for the last two or
three days. There was excellent buy
ing of December by local bulls. Cash
corn was very weak. and lost liAc, de-
spite the arrivals OF only thirty-four
cars. Ihe Kansas crop Is estimated at
36O 100000 bushels.
Oats were weak early under wind
ing up OF the liquidation by longs. but
they rallied later in response to good
covering by shorts. and in sympathy
with other grains. There was a big
general trade. Cash oats were about &c
lower all around.
Provisions were utterly demuralized
during the early hours. and the liquida-
ton seemed general and complete. Pork
off nearly 81 per barrel, lard
lCd25c, and ribs 40G 60c. Very heavy
covering OF shorts and some Investment
buying was done on the slump. thus
bringing about recovery of more than
half the lost ground. Meat and lard
shipments for the week were less than
or the corresponding week last year.
Following are the quotations.

THE MONEY MARKETS.

NEW YORK. Aug. 9.-There were no
developments Of importance In the local
money market this week The volume
OF business was somewhat larger owing
TO the increased activity on the stock
exchange, but rates for both call and
time contracts were unchanged from a
week ago. Money on call was in ample
supply at from 21z TO per cent, the
average rate for the week being slight
ly below per cent. In the time loan
department less activity was DISPLAYED.
The demand for accommodations was not
urgent, borrowers being disposed to hold
off for better rates. The banks, how
ever. held firm. and practically all the
business transacted was at ruling quo
tations. They were as follows: Sixty
days per cent. three and four months
~ per cent. and FIVE and six months
laG5 per cent on good mixed collateral.
The commercial paper market was
fairly active. The supply OF prime ma
terial was moderate and out ut-of-town
institutions were good buyers. Clos-
ing quotations were as follows: Prime
Endorsements and choice single names
4i245 per cent. and 5iA per cent for
other good names.

SILVER GOES TO MEXICO.
Smelling Company Making Heavy
Shipments of the Metal.

NEW YORK. Aug. 9-Arrangements
have been made by the American
Smelling and Refining Company for the
shipment of many million ounces of
silver to Mexico. where it is wanted for
coinage. the home supply of Mexican
dollars having been depleted by large
consignments which have gone to China
and other far Eastern countries.
An officer of the smelling company
said: THE Mexican government has
made special arrangements by which
we are TO continue to ship silver to
Mexico. We have shipped already about
10000 ounces for Mexican coinage
purposes. and the arrangements lock to
further shipments of about 20 COO, 600
ounces.
Mexico being free coinage country
we turn the silver into the mints, taking
cut dollars therefore. We have agreed
to the arrangements to accommodate
Mexico because she wants more coin
and because it will tend TO improve the
price Of silver itself"

MONETARY MARKET NEWS
Further Gold Shipments Checked by
the Advance in Sterling Exchange at
Paris and Berlin-Anthracite Strike
Drags.

NEW YORK, Aug. 9.-The steady ant
material advance in prices this weel
can be accounted for only by including
in calculations the same general con.
siderations which have underlain tn,
marset for SO long 4 time. although
1t is plain, in addition, that the bullist
manipulation which was suspended som,
two or three weeks ago has been re.
sumed.
Except that the country's crops har.
made another weeks progress toward
safe harvest, and except that this har.
vest promises to be record breaking
yield, it is difficult to cite any new fac
tor in the situation The anthracite
coal strike is dragging along in ils
fourth month. and with nothing but neg
ative indications pointing to termina.
tion of the struggle. On top of this
matter there came this week the threat
that the elevated railway lines in this
city might be tied up by strike of the
employees, and this also is a matter OF
more than local significance.
The monetary outlook is certainly nc
more clear than it has been, except that
further gold shipments have been
checked by the advance in sterling ex-
change at Paris and Berlin. There was
indeed, single shipment of $500. coo gold
TO Europe this week, and it has been un-
derstood that the metal is to be trans
ferred TO Austria, which country appears
to be bidding a small premium 10 OBJ
tain the metal for the purpose OF
strengthening its currency.
Little time remains in which anv seri-
Gus injury can befall the countrv's ce-
real crops. In fact, the whe,. and corn
belts have been SO thoroughly saturated
with moisture that. as has been point
cd out before, even the traditional hot
winds of this month may be regarded
with comparative Unconcern
The forthcoming Government crop re-
ports showing the conditions existing
on the lst of this month, will therefore
be of particular interest
In this regard 1t may be noted that
one OF the several so-called crop ex-
perts whose forecasts are always re-
ceived with more or less credence has
put out an estimate OF this years cereal
Srops, in which he predicts a wheat
harvest of 775.ooo.Oo0 bushels. a corn
crop of 1900 600 900 bushels. and a Weld
OF oats Of $4,000, 900 bushels.
These figures are almost staggering
and it may very possibly be that the
calculations Of this expert" err greatly
on the side of optimism At the same
time, his forecasts of the corn crop
indicate yield closely in line with the
percentages OF last months Government
report. and there has been no check to
the favorable progress of corn in the
meantime. 1t may be repeated. then.
that one may safely include in his reck
onings the surety that the country this
year will be r, ,ssed with one Of the
most bountiful n--rvests in it's history.
