CATTLE-For a Thursday there was a
very decent run of cattle, LIZ loads being
reported In. The market as a whole was
in a good healthy condition and generally
satisfactory to the selling interests.
Packers all seemed TO want a few desir-
able fat cattle and prices on anything OF
that description were generally figured as
strong to loo highe than yesterday. The
trade was reasonably active at the advance
noted and the offerings changed hands In
good season. Heavy cattle OF pretty good
quality sold up to $3.50.
Cows and heifers, at least the desirable
and the market fairly active at current
slow and sellers in some cases thought they
did not get out on that kind to very good
advantage.
There were very few stockers or feeders
in sight this morning and for that reason
II was hardly possible to see very much
change in the market. On the other hand
the feeling Was weak and had there been
any great number on sale the market
would undoubtedly have been decidedly
lower.

NEW YORK, July S-The lethargy OF
the speculation was striklnRly demon
strated by the sluggish response today to
the highly important government report
Of July / condition Of the cereal crops.
Evidently, this was partly due to the
plain predictions of the favorable charter

official state reports and from trustworthy
private estimates. This gave opportunity
for speculation to anticipate the govern
From the action, both Of the stock and
cereal markets after the appearance OF
the report, Il appeared that this pre-
llminary action had been overdone and
the realizing movement forced prices In
a direction contrary to the adjudication
Of the crop figures as a ~conseQuence. Thus
II happened that prices OF stocks declined
and OF grains advanced on q prediction

Today's good news proved inadequate TO
inoite such a demand and this fact gave
rise TO some anxiety on the part OF holders
who had bought stock with the intention
OF r~eselling at a profit, when the promise
OF favorable developments was realized.
Reasons for the sluggish demand were
not clear. One deterrent Influence was
the amount OF q mention given to the
direction taken by government measures
against 'the holding company" This is a
financial device upon which much of the
efficacy OF great corporation Is dependent.
The fact that at Washington the senate
wiped out of the tariff bill the exemption
accorded to holding companies from the
