WHEAT JUMPS UP MORE THAN 4 CENT Reports Of Black Rust Have
 BuIIiSh Effect CORN PRICES ARE STRONG Dry, Hot Weather In the Corn Belt Causes Price To Advance, But Later Decliens-Oats Some
 what Higher.
CORN PRICES ARE STRONG

Chicago, July 29.-Black rust in the wheat fields of the northwest caused an advance of more than one cent in the price of wheat on the local exchange to- day. At the close the September deliv- cry was up 1bc. Corn was a shade higher. Oats were up %c. Provisions were 71ka1Oe higher.
 The wheat market was firm all day, but the greatest strength developed late in the session, when shorts covered free ly, owing to receipt of numerous reports confirming previous rumors of black rust in the Dakotas Several of the leading commission houses were active buyers all day. Early in the session the market was strengthened by reports of hot weather in the northwest and by lighter acceptanees from the country. The mar ket closed strong, with prices almost at the top point. September opened un- changed to ssc lower, at s91s@S91ze, ad- vanced to 90ssc and closed at 904e. Prl- mary receipts were 1,115,O0o bushels, com pared with 775,O00 the corresponding day a year ago. Clearances of wheat and flour were equal to 29, 700 bushels.
 Minneapolis. Duluth and Chicago re- ported receipts of 449 cars, against 40 last week and i07 a year ago.
 The corn market was strong the entire day, particularly the new crop months, which were in active demand by commis- sion houses and shorts. Dry, hot weather throughout a major portion of the corn belt was chiefly responsible for the bull ish sentiment. Offerings came chiefly from longs. The market closed strong, with the exception of September delivery, which showed only a slight advance com pared with yesterdays final quotations. September opened unchanged to ssc high CT, at 737sQ74c, sold off to 79isc and then advancedsto 74l4c. The close was at 739s Q7Sac. Local receipts 115 cars. eight con- tract grade.
 Scorching weather in the northwest and small receipts caused strong market for oats, cash houses and shorts being active bidders all day. An advance of l @2c in the price of cash grain was a bullish factor. September opened AQ1ac higher, at 4Ss4Q44c, advanced to 447sc, and closed at 44Ac. Local receipts 123 cars.
 Provisions were strong because of a 5c advance in live hogs and because of the strength of grain. The feature of trade was the purchase of 100000 pounds of September ribs by a local packer. At the close September pork was up 10c, at S15.62h.
 Lard was 714c higher at s9.45; ribs were 10c higher, at $S.921R.
 Estimated receipts for tomorrow Wheat 1855 cars, corn 157 cars, oats 1S0 cars hogs 2OOO0 head

New Orleans Cotton Market.

New Orleans, July 29.-Spot cotton was quiet and steady, with prices unchanged. Middling, 10asc. Sales were GAO bales on the spot and none to arrive.
 Futures opened steady with the active months points up, as result of favor able advices from Liverpool, where the opening was better than had been expect ed by members of the trade here. Again A more or less featureless market charac- terized the days trading, and there were no developments to move prices to any great extent either one way or the other. The trade is now in a state of expectancy awaiting the putting out of the crop con- dition report next Friday, and until that time there will not be a great deal of &C., tivity in the future market. The October option showed more improvement than ieny other position during the day, but lNst it's early gains later on, and at the clsse, which was steady, was only poiNs above yesterdays close. The closet today found the other active months 1 poirs up.

STOCK MARKET
 LOSES ACTIVITY Attempts To Advance Prices Do Not Succeed We'll PRICES DECLINE A LITTLE Bears Refrain From Making Any As sault Upon Bull Position, Leaving the Market Free To Go
 Up or Down.

New York, July 29.-Interest in the stock market became apathetic today ana there was a material contraction in the volume of the dealings. The speculative tone at the same time was heavy. Early at tempts to advance prices soon demon- strated that stocks were being supplied to meet the bids at the advanced prlces' This supply of stocks diminished at d moderate recession, and left the market in a dull and sluggish condition. There was no encouragement to bid up prices with the obstacle to be met Of free sell ing orders above the market On the other hand, there was no such urgency in the selling to encourage the pear party to offer prices down.
 The passing of several events which have been looked forward to was partly accountable for the neglected condition of the market The publication of Judge Taft's letter of acceptance, the quarterly report of the earnings of the United States Steel corporation, and the declara- ton of the regular dividends on the liar riman Pacific roads. proved to have spent their force largely as market factors with their publication. The supplementary statement given out with the report of Steel earnings showing an advance In average daily bookings during July to iz per cent of the full capacity of the works, was accepted as the most im- portant item in the statement for Its speculative bearing. But even this was regarded as having prompted the large accumulation and the advancing price in the stock which had occurred during July.
 With these various items of news out of the way, the market showed it's usual desire for new factors to point the next step in the speculation. The days news did not supply this factor Some dis. turbing effect was produced by the con- fused reports circulated early in the day of a supposed serious accident to William K Vanderbilt. Some recovery followed when the reports were known to refer to a nishap in which the capitalist had not been involved
 There was some waning of interest ip the rumors concerning the adjustment in the affairs of the Gould railroad proper ties in connection with the $S,0O0,0O0 Wheeling and Lake Erie notes falling due on August 1. The steps to be taken to meet this obligation were made mys- tery of and the information on the sub ject consisted of rumors that bankers were in consultation over the details of the plan. The reticence of the supposed parties to the plan was believed to be due, in part. to tactics of negotiation.

COTTON MARKET
 IN WAITING MOOD Transactions Are Light With
 Little Change BULLS IN THE BACKGROUND Opening Is Steady, Followed By an Advance, But Selling Causes Loss
 of Several Points From
 Highest Figures.
BULLS IN THE BACKGROUND

New York, July 29.-The cotton market was very quiet today, sales being esti- mated at only 75OOO bales, while fiucfua- tions were narrow with the close steady, net 1 point higher to 3 points lower.
 The market opened steady at unchanged prices to an advance of points, owing to rather better Liverpool cables than ex- pected, particularly as to the near months and during the early session the market sold about to points net higher on scattering demand from shorts and some local buying, which seemed to be aetuated by expectations of bull support before the close But this support was not forth coming, the weather was excellent, the forecast favorable, mad notwithstanding a private condition report showing an improvement of only 1.2 per cent for the month, when the trade has been talking a betterment of fully per cent, the mar ket eased off during the afternoon under selling from the south in small lots and liquidation by some of the early buyers.
 The close was practically the low point. An average of the estimate of active members of the New York Cotton ex- change, with individual estimates from S1.5 to S7 per cent, indicates an expecta- ton that the government report at noon on Friday will be around SS.9 per cent. Several private reports are expected to- morrow, but few local traders anticipate that either these reports or that of the government will exert much influence on prices.
 Receipts at the ports today. 33S2 against S609 last week and 5315 last year. For the week, 25,O0O, against 23,16O last week and 10,245 last year. Today's receipts at New Orleans. 1908, against 2463 last year, and at Houston, 1922, against PAT last year.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1908-07-30

There was nothing to indicate a marked change in the condition of the crops. The estimates of private experts on the cotton crop promise an improvement of condi- tion for the month to be shown by the government report soon to be issued.
 With the decline in activity in stocks there has come a languishing in the in- terest in the bond market, which is made the cause of some puzzled complaint on the part of bond dealers. The new out put of bonds has been sufficient appar- ently to supply the present demand The prices at which bankers hold the new issues also are held by bond dealers to be unduly high. The irregular fiuctua- tions continued throughout.
 Bonds were steady; total sales, par value, $3,06O,OO0
 United States bonds were unchanged on call.
