Selling of EniOn
Pactnc.

NEW YORK, July S-The week I'm the
stock exchange closed with a carefully
managed movement to realize, which was
Facilitated by the bidding up Of prices here
and there at the opening. After the selling
mad spent its force prices were marked up
again, leaving the last prices not far from
those OF last night. The realizing was
most conspicuous In Reading and Union
racine, in which the speculative operations
nave been the largest all the week The
demand for Reading has been melted by
proclaiming confidence that the dividend
on Central railroad Of New Jersey was to
be increased with benefit to Reading
through its holdings of that stock. The
action Of the directors today I'm declaring
only the regular dividend on Central Rail-
way OF New Jersey was calculated there
fore to induce some selling of Reading.
The cotton market was excited again, but
the grain markets were inclined to react
on the favorable weather conditions in the
wheat belt. The realizing in Reading was
partly covered by marking up Reading
second preferred. The United States Steel
stocks also showed signs of irregular
strength In connection with rumors OF the
figures for the net earnings OF the last
quarter
The large decrease In cash shown by the
bank statement was a SURPRISE as the pre-
liminary estimates had indicated only a
nominal change The loan contraction was
regarded as moderate for the opening week
of disbursement period. The market closed
quiet aad steady.

acting under the direction of the secretary

Prices on Board of Trade.

CHICAGO, July Stree movement OF
new wheat In the southwest caused weak
ness In the wheat market here today. At
the close the September option was pre-
cisely lc below yesterdays final quotations.
Corn Is on hgAe;;, oats are down &c. Pro-
Weakue in the wheat market developed
soon GER the opening. At the start the
market was quite firm. September was up
out Kansas were the main cause Of the
initial frmness. In the northwest, how
ever, weather conditions we're generally
favorable for the spring-sown crop and
this fact led to free selling by several
prominent commission houses, resulting in
quick decline. Later the market became
still weaker, largely in sympathy with a
sharp decline in cash prices following re-
ports Of an increased movement Of new
ber Of adviCes of a bulish nature, but they
seemed to have little effect on the mar
Claimed that he wheat Ei" crop @ Of California
had deteriorated 45 per cent. From Mime
apolis came another report asserting that
black rust had caused considerable damage
to spring-sown wheat A factor that
brought out much OF the late selling was
a revised estimate by Chicago expert
based on statistics furnished since July !.
According to these figures the total yield
was 4000O0,OO0 20 420,O 900 bushels Sep
tember reached the lowest point of the day
September at s7Zc. Clearances OF wheat
and -four were equal to $4,000 bushels
Primary receipts were 81 700 bushels. COM
pared with 1s1,4OO bushels a year ago. Min
ncapolis, Duluth and Chicago reported re-
ceipts OF 149 cars, against 219 cars last
week and 14s cars year ago.
Larger receipts than expected and more
liberal acceptances caused weakness In
the corn market. notwithstanding a SHARP
advance at Liverpool. Cash houses were
the principal sellers. Receipts at primary
points were more than double those a year
ago. The market closed weak and near
the lowest point of the day September
opened bc lower to &c higher at 56hd561kc
sold off to 55Nc and closed at 5G's666hc
Local receipts were 426 cars, with 1853 OF

A firm tone prevailed In the oats market
early in the session on an active demand
from commission houses The market
weakened In sympathy with the declines ir
other grain. September opened a shade &c
lac higher at S1%631%c, sold between S1%c
and 31&d31kc and closed at Si%c. Loca
receipts were 149 cars.
Provisions were firm from start TO finish
The volume of trade was fairly large. A
&c advance in the price Of live hogs had 0
