bureaus weekly summary of crop con-
c.itions, issued today. follows:
The northern portions of the country
east of the Rocky mountains that SUI
fered from low temperatures during the
last half of June have, With the escep-
ton of New England, experienced more
favorable temperatures. The Missouri
and upper Mississippi valleys, the lake
region, middle Atlantic states and New
England have received abundant rains.
which proved unfavorable in the Mis-
souri, and upper Mississippi valleys and
portions of the lake region and middle
Atlantic states. Drought continues
With increasing severity over a large
part of the central and east gulf dis
tricts, and rain is much needed In the
south Atlantic states, where the WEI
has been unusually warmer, with
showers over limited areas only.
Under highly favorable temperatures
there has been a general i'm
yrovement in the condition of corn
thruout the central valleys, and the
outlook for this crop in the principal
corn states is encouraging. altho in the
states of the Missouri valley 1t has suf-
fered considerably from lack of culti-
walton. due to excessive moisture. In
Kansas the bulk of the crop is laid by
ard much is silking and earring. In Ne
braska corn is rather small. but grow
ing nicely. altho needing cultivation.
Three fourths of the crop in Iowa is
well cultivated aAi in normal condition.
notwithstanding The unfavorable eff
fects of heavy rains. In Missouri the
outlook in that state is the best in
wears In Arkansas. Tennessee valley
and the lake region the general outlook
is excellent In the southern states a
very poor crop is indicated and in por-
lions of the central gulf districts the
carly planted is injured beyond recov-
ery. The unfavorable harvesting
weather of the previous weeks in the
states of the lower Missouri valley
continued during the last week, al
tho the harvesting of winter wheat is
now practically finished in that
section. Some damage to grain
in shock and stalk is reported
from Illinois. Missouri and Nebraska
Harvesting has continued in the Ohio
valley under generally favorable con
ltions and is practically finished over
| the southern pertion or the middle AT
lla.ntic states and has begun in the lake
region. Spring wheat has experienced

Ling Il lot, and then start the price on
the road to 50 cents. The best buying
from so up TO the top MAS by Ware x
Leland, who have led the advance for
the Week.
1t is hard to locate the short interest.
but it is taken by the trade that there
must be a good-siZed one. The shorts
demonstrated SO far that they have
complete control. and il has not so far
required much of an effort to keep
prices ascending. The largest shorts
are said to be the elevator men. who
have July corn against purchases in the
country of No. 3. 1t is said that the
sellers have been called upon TO put up
s15o0on0 in margins to protect their
deals Last night there WAS almost 20
cents difference between prices OF No. >
and 80. 3 corn, the latter being the
commercial grade. and this shows to
what extent manipulation is being car
rell September corn was selling At G.
cents yesterday. while July was at 81.
How much of the 100000 to 20
100000 bushels of July corn that was
bought by the bull clique has not been
sold is a thing that operators would
like To know. AS the insiders in the
bull pool are doing no talking. no one
was the wiser as TO their intentions for
the future. All their brokers know is
that their orders say buy or sell, and
they execute them.
The present corn deal makes that
run of George II. Phillips appear like
Kindergarten play. Phillips had hare
work to get the price TO 60 cents in
May. 1901. and few trades We're made
at that figure. Now no great effort Is
required to put the price over 80 cents.
When Phillips ran his deal stocks III
the interior We're no larger than at
present and the trade Was against MIN.
Now the opposition of the trade TO the
advances serves rather to help rather
than to retard the upward movement.
How much the CLIQUE Will make out of
the deal is problematical
High prices for No. corn and the
oO-cenu difference over No. 3 has awak
ened interest in the grading OF the
corn and the Illinois Grain Dealers
Association has issued . circular. UNI
der date of July 3, to all grain dealers
in the state. 1t says that there is
good chance to make money on this
bulge All members are advised to use
more care in selecting their corn.
more thorough cleaning and careful
handling is also deemed necessary. TO
assist all grain dealers to secure the
best grading and market prices the Of
!icers of the association have arranged
TO have a committee, composed OF the
best posted men turnout the state, to
come here and see that corn is properly
graded. and to watch the handling of
their corn

Des Moines, July S.-The regular
weekly weather and crop bulletin, is
sued today. says:
The first nalf of the past week was
cool and cloudy the last half was much
warmer with drying winds, and much
more favorable for corps. and field work
on Well drained lands. The rainfall was
variable, ranging from less than an inch
to over 500 inches, about two-thirds of
the state receiving very much above the
the Cedar river and other streams have
been flooded, causing damage to crops
that cannot at this time be estimated.
In general the crop situation has been
improved in the larger part of the state
by the few days of dry weather and
sunshine. The condition of corn is I'M
usually variable as to size and amount
of CIVILIZATIONS; but probably three
fourths of the planted area is fairly
clean and up to normal standard.
Dry weather and sunshine are now
imperatively needed for ripening and
harvesting small grain and securing the
bountiful hay crop. Spring wheat in
sections where the acreage is largest
has been doing we'll, with Moderate
damage by rust. Oats badly lodged in
the central valleys, but the state aver
age is nearly up to the normal, and the
output depends wholly upon seasonable
weather in the near future.
The potato crop is very promising
tho there are some reports of damage
from excessive moisture.
Crop correspondents, July 1st, re-
ported the following averages of condi-
ton:
Corn. 90 per cent; spring wheat SO;
oats, 80; barley, 81; flax, 80; potatoes,

The Horse Market.

Chicago, July S.-With an unusually
light run no auction was held at DeX-
ter Park. There were but few arrivals
reported yesterday and UP to opening
time this morning there We're not over
$50 head, all told. Business was of ne
cessity transacted on Il retail basis and
even with such light receipts prices
were no better than steady with last
weeks decline.
Buyers were not strongly in evidence
and it required considerable peddling to
effect a profitable sale. Nothing of eN-
ira quality was received, the bulk of
the run being common to fair with
several loads of western horses. As re-
CARDS quotations the market is COM
paratively steady with last weeks de-
cline. but with no auction it is difficult
to get line on the market.
