STOCK MARKET
 IS VERY BUOYANT Good Reports on Steel Stocks
 Have BuIIish Effect SHARP RISE IS EXPECTED Wall Street Traders Are Attacking Morgan On Account of the Paris Listing of Steel Corporation
 Shares.
SHARP RISE IS EXPECTED
BY THOMAS c. sHoTwELL.

New York June 19.-Among the impor- tant rumors current in Wall street today was one that directors of the Steel cor poration had decided to put the common stock on per cent basis in July It has been understood all along that the increase would be made next April to that rate but the great volume of orders now in the hands of the trust are said to insure net earnings of at least S125,- 100000 for the year 1909 and as an in creased dividend would help the French situation the directors could justify this declaration with the new business.
 Traders in Wall street who were saved from ruin two years ago by Morgan & Co.,. are now proving their gratitude by at tacking Morgan from all sides because they imagine he is failing in his attempt to list Steel in Paris. Morgan made them pay a good round price for saving them and judging from the action of Steel shares just now, he will make them pay a good round sum for presuming to believe he has failed in Paris. The shorts have sold so gleefully that the market is In technical position to have a swift rebound of several points. Some of the best speculative authorities look for a rebound early this week.
 The bank statement proved the theory of the market decline as set out in this column. The actual statement of condi- tions Friday night show a reduction of loans amounting to $35, ,277, 800, with a de- crease in deposits of S39924,OOO. This shows that the banks have sold stocks and the credits have been reduced, al- though actual cash has been increased by $4,679.OO0 Stocks owned by banks are carried as "1oans."
 London was strong at the close, but in New York stocks sold off. Number of shares sold today 1911O0, against 114.o27 a year ago.
 Par value of bonds sold today, $lS49,- 0oo against s1.351, ,O0O a year ago.
 La Rose Nevada Consolidated, United Copper and Go1dfield Consolidated were the active features of the curb market today. La Rose made a new high record at 8, while the others sold at recent nigh prices. Montezuma was one of the low pi-&ced stocks to make a new record CO., bait Central was also very active in that list The porphyry coppers were all In good demand.

FURTHER DECLINE
 IN WHEAT PRICES Trade Is Comparatively Quiet
 for the Day CROP OUTLOOK FAVORABLE Weak Tone Develops In Corn Mainly Through Good Weather For New crops-oats Close Easy and
 Provisions Firm.
CROP OUTLOOK FAVORABLE

Chicago, June 19.-Wheat prices declined still further on the board of trade to- day as a result of new selling, based on the favorable crop outlook in this country. At the close the net loss for the day was 5sd1ssc. Corn followed wheat and closed weak Oats were easy and provisions firm.
 Trade in the wheat pit was rather quiet and the market was extremely heavy the greater part of the day. Weath- CT conditions in this country and Can ada were generally favorable for the new crop with the exception of sections of Manitoba, where excessive high temper atures were said to be injuring the young plant. Harvesting was reported to have started in southern Illinois and Kansas and the yields were said to have been ahead of expectations.
 The greatest selling pressure was in July delivery and during the day that option declined 19sc from the high point of the session, selling off from $l149s@ 1.12&. The market closed weak and only a trife above the lowest point, with July at $1.13.
 The fresh slump in wheat was largely responsible for weak tone Manifested in the corn market all day, although the favorable weather for the new crop helped to depress the market. The local bears hammered the market vigorously and the tired longs took profits.
 Buying was largely by cash interests The market closed weak at declines of A@1Ac compared with yesterdays final figures.
 Oats declined to follow the course of other grains, but the market displayed relatively a firmer tone and at the close prices were unchanged to 1sc lower, com pared with the previous final quotations.
 Crop reports were again of a bearish nature, excepting a few from one locality in Illinois, where the crop was said to be infested with green bugs.
 Provisions were firmer all day, although the market lost part of it's strength, ow- ing to the weakness of grain. Hog re- ceipts here were 5000 head less than ex- pected and arrivals at other western packing centers were light. At the close prices were a shade to 15c higher than yesterdays close
