Rumor of Enforced Liquidations.

Ia. r. Thompson & Co.'s telegram
NEW YORK, July 1.-THE opening prices
this morning were generally the highest of
the day and there has been throughout the
session a steady pressure of long stock.
High priced investments were thrown over
by people who need the money TO protect
their commitments in other directions. The
market has acted precisely as it has in
all the previous breaks this year. Stocks
have been supplied as far as they would be
taken while the pressure would be relieved
and protection given soon it seemed
likely that Generalization might ensue. The
selling which attracted the greatest amount
of attention was that in Consolidate Gas in
which a block of long stock was evidently
disappointed at the market price.
The earnings of the Baltimore & Ohio for
the twelve months ending June 80 show
net gain of nearly $3.0O0,O00 and the company
is figured out to have earned about 10 per
cent. on the common stock. There continues
to be a free circulation of reports about the
enforced liquidation for some large interests
while heed is given to intimations that the
Standard Oil people are trying to control
the New York Central,

WHEAT WAS STRONGER
CLOSE WAS FIRM AT AN ADVANCE
FOR SEPTEMBER OF 5-s CENT.
Good Buying by Large COmmissiOn
House Caused Late Increase-COrn
Closed with a Gain.

CHICAGO, July II. - Wheat showed
strength except for temporary decline
early in the day and the close was firm at
an advance for September of sc over yes
terday Corn opened easier but developed
strength and closed with a gain of A@2sc
Oats ruled easy, the close showing a loss
for September Of Ac. Provisions held steady
and closed at about yesterdays figures.
Good buying by large commission houses
who were on tie bear side yesterday caused
the late strength in wheat. The buying was
the result of a general impression that
the decline of the past few days had about
reached its limit and free covering by short
holders. There was a feeling of weakness
soon after the opening, which was a shade
to A9ss higher for September at 77G77Lc
Bearish weather advices and easier ca
bles resulted in a decline to 76ikc With the
improved demand. however, and light Offer
ings a better market resulted and Septem-
Der went up to T7sc. The close was at a
gain of sc at 77l1GTssc. Clearances of
wheat and flower were equal to 1851 bu.
Bradstreet's worlds visible showed a de-
crease of 100000 bu. Minneapolis and Du-
luth reported receipts of leo cars which,
with local receipts of Y cars-25 of contract
grade-rnade total for the three points of
a02 cars, against l9l last week and AZ a
year ago.
There was influential selling of corn by
commission houses early on bearish crop
advices. favorable weather and the cables
and the market declined from the opening
which was easy at shade to 1zdssc lower
for September at 50sG50i%e. A sufficient de-
mand developed later, however, To bring
about q reaction, country offerings being
smaller and sentiment divided as TO the
future trend of the market. September
closed steady at O7sc, gain of L4Qssc after
ranging between 1886 and 51Isc. Local re-
cepits were 800 cars, with 2S of contract
grade.
There was a fair trade in oats and the
market ruled steady with but little change
in prices Some of the big local traders
are still buuish on the crop situation, but
bought on the declines and saved any break
in the market September closed at loss
of l4c at 337sc. after ranging between 33ss 20
33isc and 34I4c. Local receipts were Dos cars.
A good demand from commission houses
and brokers and some indication of sup
port from leading packers held provisions
firm Offerings were fairly liberal but not
sufficient to more than supply the demand.
September pork closed &c lower at $40.
while lard aud ribs were unchanged at
$757la and $3.50.
Estimated receipts for tomorrow: Wheat,
55 cars; corn. 1so; oats. 40; hogs. 25,W0

Something Beyond the Ordinary
Hanging Over the Stock Market.

something Beyond the Oruihary
Hanging Over the stock Market.
IPorterfeld & Co.'S Telegram.]
NEW YORK, July 1.-THE market opened
on a higher level all around. London was
an influence, buying some 10000 shares and
sending prices u to 1z above our close of
last night. Baltimore & Ohio was prominent,
opening at 81 or nearly a point higher
ings which show per cent. earned for
the common stock, but with everything
favorable the market failed to hold and the
public evidently refuse to be attracted ex-
cept for investment buying. The bear crowd,
which at present is the controlling infiu-
ence soon detected the absence of any en-
thusiastic buying and proceeded to put out
fresh lines. New York Central was the first
to give way, breaking points share, then
the rails were attacked with more or less
success. st. Paul, the high priced one, came
in for especial notice and the raid forced
liquidation which carried 1t lower than any
late declines. Even such dividend payers as
Peoples Gas was not overlooked and 81
slump followed in 1t. The renewed efforts
at Steel depressed this stock below 2S. There
is evidently something beyond the ordinary
hanging o8sr the market and all precedents
are shattered Ordinary ANALYSIS OF the
market makes stocks q purchase, but the
action of the market contradicts it. 1t will
require patience and perhaps additional
funds to protect long holdings for the pres
ent, but before the week ends there should
be some reaction.

LOCAL WHOLESALE TRADE
COOLER WEATHER STIMULANT
TO ALL LINES OF BUSINESS.
Supply Of Fruits and Vegetables Is
Quite Liberal-Grain Market Ac-
tive, with Good Demand.

The cooler weather seems to act as a
stimulant to trade. as in all lines business
Is reported excellent. Even the dry
goods houses report trade the last day or
two as unusually large for midsummer.
Several changes in prices will be noted to-
day in the dry goods line. in most lines
prices carrying a very firm tone. The
wholesale grocers are having a busy time.
Travelling statesmen sending in large
orders. They predict a good trade during
the entire month. and speak of the outlook
for faii trade as being excellent. All staple
groceries rule steady and firm in price. The
sugar market has taken on a steadier tone,
but such goods are sold very close. and to
make any money the wholesale grocer
must sell large bills. The flour market is
very active. The stronger tone to prices
of the last month seem to have put new
life into the business and orders for flour
are larger and more numerous than usual
I'm July On Commission row trade is ac-
tive. The supply of fruits and vegetables
Is quite liberal, and a good deal of stuff
Is moving at the reduced prices of Monday.
There are but few articles that are not
selling lower than usual at this season of
the year, but. as commission merchant
said yesterday, the retail grocers are hang
ingpn TO old prices to such an etxent that
IT curtails their trade. New apples of very
respectable size are TOW on the market
and of quite good quality. Georgia peaches
are in good supply and selling quite reason
able. The market is now supplied with
green beans, green peas, green beets and
like vegetables from homegrown produc-
ers. The egg market Is weak on large re-
ceipts. and L. cents for eggs. loss or is
all that can be obtained. Butter is arriving
fn large quantities. but a considerable per
cent. OF the receipts Is poor stock and moves
slowly Choice butter is In good request
at quotations. Poultry is weak I'm tone
and. were the receipts larger, prices would
decline another cent. There Is n good de-

Condition of Other Markets.

UNION STOCKYARDS, INDIANAPOLIS. July
H.-Cattle-Receipts. LOO; shipments. 200. The
quality generally satisfactory II has
been recently, and this, together with the SMALL
er supply, brought out rather active competition
between buyers, and on the opening market
sales were made promptly at higher prices than
those prevailing at the close of last week. The
improvement, however, was exclusively fat
stock, there being no better outlet for cattle
on the stocker and feeder order than there has
been for several days. After the first round
buyers evidently decided that they were paying
too much for their cattle and little easier feel
ing developed in the trade. Statesmen. however.
were not inclined to weaken. and later in the
day most of the fat stock changed hands. In
a general way the better class Of cattle, includ-
ing steers. heifers and cows. reported 1Oc
to 15c higher than the close of last week, and
in extreme cases there was possibly 2oc gain.
While the situation to-day was more in favor of
salesmef than IT has been in over week. they
are not inclined to be greatly encouraged over
the outlook. Should receipts continue below
normal IL is reasonable to expect that prices at
least as good to-day will prevail in the near
future, but whenever the supplies a little
larger than required IL is expected that buyers
will ask concessions in prices. Quotations:
