The wheat market opened strong, on ac-
count OF an active demand brought out

NEW YORK, Tune l3.-There was some
renewal of the uneasiness amongst specula-
tive holders of stocks today which prompted
account OF the funding Of ETie Bond
coupons and the closing Of subscriptions for
the Union Pacific bonds. A tone OF greater
closed. London was markedly dispieased
WITH the Erie incident and sold those

made by yesterdays decline below the sub
seription price. Bankers who underworld
the Donds state that small bidders would
receive the full amount applied for, while
larger applicants would receive 80 per cent
OF the bids the amount apportioned to the
stated. Neither was the amount Of foreign
subscription stated. II was Inferred that
some OF the bidders had made over epplica-
would not be made and were sellers at the
decline TO 50 when they learned the extent
them. The precedent Of the Pennsylvania
bond subscription, when applicants re-
eeived only per cent OF the amounts bid
Tor and small bids were thrown out alto
gether, seems to have influenced the over
applications in this case, which, however,
with no active competition as in the case
Of the Pennsylvania issue.
Reports Of large assumptions amongst
steel mills helps to strengthen stocks and
MODERATE Improvement in mercantile lines,
reported by commercial agencies, had a
good influence. The shading of the Union
Pacific bonds to below the subscription
price again late in the dealings caused a
hesitating movement in the rally, but the
market closed steady.
The bank statement supplied no surprises.
The cash accretion was fully reflected in
the statement Of actual conditions and the

The best authorities are bullish without

Ftrmness characterized the early wheat

Corn opened higher with wheat. but
lacked the snap and continued selling
