wheat in the latter markets continues to de-
cline: Offerings seem to be in excess Of de-
mand low barometer in the northwest

This has undoubtedly Influenced some of the
buying today: All our markets are consider
ably out of line for export, and the feeling is
daily gaining ground that, with the present
prospect for wheat, our markets will go to an
export basis Liverpool closed unchanged
Corn-There was very little corn for sale at
the opening this morning. This was an entire
change from previous openings this week Some
scattered selling Of September corn was done
around b5c for old September; July corn ad-
vanced 1hc quickly. At the rate corn is be-
ing, delivered on July contracts it looks as tho
quite line of short corn would have to be
covered in the pit.
oats-oats have been quiet and shade easier.
Nothing significant in the trading. We con-
tinue to feel that they are too low to sell.
Provisions--Provisions have been strong, with
no signs of any important selling. Packers
say tho cash demand is very good. Some
western packers say their receipts Of hogs are
getting light.

Sioux City Stock Yards, Sioux City, Iowa,
July Is, 2 p.m-Receipts at this market show
good increase in all branches. In cattle,
close to 1000 head have been received. which
been largely in the heavier marketing of stock
ers which has resulted in slump In values
The demand for stockers from the country was
not sufficient to take care OF the receipts and
on the opening of the week the market ruled
15c to Csc lower, later ruled a quarter lower
and the closing quotations for thu few cattle
on sale were generally 40c lower than last
weeks best time Coupled with this fact the
trade has been very slow and dragging and
quite few cattle in the pens, bought last
Monday by the yard traders, which have not
been sold. This status of affairs will have a
bad effect on the market the coming week, but
will be likely to check supplies. There is little
likelihood of an improvement in the market.
Farmers are taking advantage of the good
weather to attend to their cultivating and there
will be very slack demand for stock cattle
for the next few weeks.
The fat cattle trade this week has been very
satisfactory and buyers have been eager for
the available supply. ''Grassers'' are coming
in liberal supply, which Is having the effect
Of making a wider range in values. While good
corn fed cattle are becoming more scarce values
are ruling stronger and the grass cattle are
naturally selling at a lower figure. The best
Of the fed steers sold this week from $4.95 to
S5.25, with the fair kinds at $4@4.75. Good dry
fed butcher stock was scarce commodity with
few sales at S3.75@4.25. The good grass
COWS and heifers sold from $3.05 to $3.50 and
the fair to medium kinds at $2.75@S. Gamers
and cutters ranged from $1.75 to $3.50. The
market showed weakness early in the weel
and values were generally dime lower thar
last weeks close. Prices else the week steady
at the decline, with good demand for al
kinds Of stock. .s.
Hogs-Receipts have been fairly liberal ant
total %, 900 for the six days, which is 5,O0t
more than last week. The market has shown {
decided advance this week and with hogs selling
at $5.35@550 and the bulk of the sales a
$5.4O@5.45 the market is fully 15c higher thar
last weeks close. Hogs are not coming as goot
in quality as last month and a larger per
centage Of sows is prevalent in the loads. Thi
is resulting in wider range in values at thi
and other markets. Farmers are busy and tn
hot weather may curtail supplies materially thu
coming week. .

COMMERCIAL ACTIVITY
NO ABATEMENT IN THE VOLUME
OF TRADE AND GOOD CROP RE-
PORTS A STIMULUS.

New York, July 14.-Bradstreet's Of today
says Midsummer influences still govern gen.
eral trade and industry, but better weather and
crop reports made for quiet optimistic trade
Of the west. Very favorable reports to
fall trade orders come from nearly all points
west Of the Alleghenies, north Of the Ohio
river and thence westward to the Pacific.
Large tho, except in few cases. not record
breaking crop yields now appear reasonably as
sured in that entire region. and there is a
general agreement that fall business already
booked exceeds year ago at this date.
Less assurance is found in the reports from,
the western half Of the south, where it is
feared serious damage has been done by In
this partially ofsetting the favorable influences
Of the heavy advance in cotton prices.
There is evidence Of cross currents in iron
and steel. the latter being active and strong,
while crude iron, tho displaying more activity,
is still weaker, lower in most markets. Com
modify prices display great strength for a mid
summer period and are only fractionally lower
on the month.
A point deserving Of note is the widespread
activity In demand for cotton goods of nearly
all kinds, which accepts steady advances In
prices and clamors for more goods. Other tex
tiles are also strong. wool being steadily alb
scribed at the highest prices for years, while
wooden goods machinery finds satisfactory EN-
ployment higher-priced goods.
Other materials for manufacture, such al
hides and leather. are active, and while tn,
advance OF the year favors rather quieter con
didons in building materials, lumber, brick ant
hardware reflect the continuance Of unprece
denied activity In construction work.
