NEW YORK, Aug. 1.-The distinguish
ing feature Of to-day's stock market was
the marked subsistence of activity which
has been in progress all this week, but
which reached a condition almost of tor
por to-day. The movement Of prices was
slso extremely sluggish. with the excep-
lion Of a. few prominent stocks. The large
Speculative interest. who have most
largely made the recent activity of the
market, was quiescent 1t is probable
that the reception given to the formal
announcement of the Rock Island plan of
conversion OF its capital and reorganiza-
ton OF the method of control had some
thing to do with the pause in the specula-
ION. The recent brilliant advance in

A BUMPER CROP
Nebraska Farms are Producing
Wheat, Oats and Corn Galore
BIG YIELD OF nay, POTATOES, ETC.


Crops of all kinds are assured in
abundance for he growing season
now nearing an end in Nebraska.
wheat. although damaged in quality
by the unusual rainfall. is the heaviest
crop in the history of the state. Oats
will yield heavily. which condition
likewise pertains to hay. alfalfa. pota-
toes and all the products of the or
chard and garden. Meanwhile corn.
Nebraska's staple product. has beer
making a slow but steady growth,
until now it is past the danger point
and a yield fairly prodigious is GER
tain. The acreage is less than in
former years. because of the increased
propagation of winter wheat. but the
condition of the crop is so fiattering
that experts are freely predicting that
the total harvest will nearly top the
best record for corn eve scored by the
state. Nebraska's prosperity Is linked
so closely to the corn crop that the
present situation is brim full of en-
enlargement to every business inter
est in the state.
The weekly bulletin issued July 80
by the Nebraska section of the l.. s.
weather bureau describes crop condi-
tons as follows:
HI past week was generally cool
n wet. The daily mean temperature
has averaged three degrees below nor
NAL in the eastern counties and just
about normal In the western.
The rainfall has generally been
heavy In central and southern coun-
ties; the amount exceeded one inch
in most of this dristrict and ranged
from two to more than four inches in
large areas. In northern counties the
rainfall was about or slightly below
normal
The past week has been n of good
growing weather. but the showers in
southern counties have made IL rather
unfavorable for securing the small
grain crop. Stacking and thrashing
progressed slowly. Oats are nearly all
cut in southern counties and the har-
vest Is progressing nicely in the
northern: in eastern counties the oat
crop Is not as good as expected. but in
central counties II Is excellent. Hay
ing is progressing slowly; the crop,
generally. is a large one. Corn has
grown unusually we'll; the crop is
caring heavily and now promises an
exceptionally heavy yield.

A FAIR
Greatly Improved Facilities for Handling
Passengers


The grounds at the state fair will
be in exceptionally good condition for
the exposition this year. The num-
Der Of new buildings will add greatly
to the accommodation Of all exhibit
tors and the old buildings have been
put In perfect shape through neces-
sary repairs and have all beer painted
and thoroughly renovated. The dust
nuisance which for some years has
been so unpleasant. will be practically
abolished. because with the exception
of the streets. a perfect sod has been
grown over all the grounds and the
trees have grown until there il abun-
dant shade for the comfort of visitors.
1t is a fact greatly appreciated by
the large exhibitors that no state fair
grounds in the west have such per-
feet accommodations through railway
service for loading and unloading
stock as are given here. Every head
OF stock and every car of machinery
is switched to and into the grounds
for unloading. This is done with the
least possible delay and the experience
here is in great contrast with that
in other states. The management
states that this branch of the service
will be even more efficient than ever
this year. 1t is up to the thousands
of exhibitors now to take possession
of the grounds and display their very
best. There need be no question but
hat the people will be on hand to
enjoy the show. They know that theA
fair will eclipse anything heretofore
held in the state and there can be no
doubt that the attendance will be in
keeping with the rest of it-record.
