BANK CLEARINGS LESS EAST,
BUT GAIN SOUTH AND WEST.

NEW YORK, Aug. 12.-Dun's Review
tomorrow will say: 5ass - - =
Bank clearings thfs week at all lead
ing cities in the United States exhibit
a considerable decline as compared with
the corresponding week last year and
1906, total exchanges amounting to only
s2,215, SIS, $50. a loss from last year of
17.s per cent. and from 1906 of as per
cent. This decrease is largely account
ed for by the much smaller volume of
exchanges at New York city, where the
returns are 25 per cent. less than a year
ago, and 14.1 per cent. less than In 1906.
Outside that centre the comparison Is
fairly favorable, although heavy de-
creases at Boston and Cincinnati cause
a small loss in the total as compared
with last year. There is, however a
pronounced gain over 1906. The losses
in the main are provided by cities In
the East, there being increases at al
most every point in the West and
South, In comparison with both years
The decline in bank clearings reflects
some decrease in current commercial
business, but in larger measure is ac-
counted for by the quietness in specula-
tive and financial markets at NsN
York, Boston and Chicago"

THE CHICAGO MARKET.

CHICAGO, Ill, Aug 12.-Export

wheat pit today and caused a sharp
advance. Bids were said to have been
made for good-sized quantities of red
grade at prices close to the market.
Liverpool quotations were up and IL

sia were delaying the crop movement.
Some temporary uncertainty, due to
slackness, had some effect on the mar
ket.
The opening was unsettled, u to Il
lower. September started unchanged to
4 UP at 102% to 10s, fell to 1929 and
then advanced rapidly TO 1884.

buying early, but local bulls were sell
ing, and the market reacted from an
initial bulge.
At the opening it was Is to u higher
at s. 10 ssh. and dropped to e47s. Fresh
buying impetus in sympathy with
wheat carried the price up to e5h
For the first time in quite a while
no hedging was apparent In the oats
trade and there was a firm feeling in
consequence. September started II to

MARKET STEADY
AND VERY DULL
At CLOSE OF DAY
Union Pacific, Canadian Pacific,
Republic Steel and Others
on List Rise.

NEW YORK, Aug. 12.-opening
prices of stocks today showed some
sharp advances, In spite of very light
volume of dealings. Canadian Pacific
rose 1zs, Union Pacific and Reading I.
and st. Paul. Atchison, Brooklyn Tran
sit, Utah Copper and American Beet
Sugar large fractions. American Smelt-
ing and a few minor stocks started a
fraction lower than last night.
The decline of a point in American
Smelling had momentary effect on
the market, but the subsequent ap-
pearance of large purchasing orders
for the leading railroad stocks sent
the whole list up strongly. American
Smelling made full recovery, but its
later decline of rs to 642s weakened the
market again. and the whole list fell
back sharply. The high prices showed

Cessation of pressure against Amer
ican Smelling relieved the general list.
but trading became very dull. Union
Pacific and Southern Pacific were
bought on the good annual reports.
The weakening OF American Smelling
was the cause of fears that the intend
ed curtailment of copper production
would impair its earnings National
Biscuit rose 21a. Atlantic Coast Line
Ia and International Harvester IL.
Westinghouse Electric declined /. Bonds
were steady.
Stocks were bid up vigorously and
some of the earlier leaders rose higher
than before. Reading, Union Pacific

demand, the last named selling frac-
tionally above yesterdays closing.
Union Pacific and International Har-
vester improved "a. Laclede Gas is

Renewed selling OF American Smelt-
ing lowered it point from its best
price, but the general market did not
recede much and the trading grew
very dull on the reaction. Louisville
and Nashville moved up two points,
Chicago Great Western preferred and
Interborough- metropolitan preferred

The market closed steady and very
dull. The pause in the advance failed
to bring out any important selling, and

THE COTTON MARKET.

NEW YORK, Aug. 1.-THE cotton
market opened steady. at decline of
points on September. but generally
lG4 points higher on scattered cover
ing and continued dry weather in the

pretty well absorbed, but buyers were
not aggressive. and shortly after the
opening yesterdays sellers became act
i've on the short side. A few stop
loss orders were uncovered and active
positions sold off to net loss of about
sQe points, although the bull leaders
gave moderate support on a scale
down.
The western belt forecast calling for
showers in North Texas, but suggest
ing no break in the drouth in central
and southern sections of that State,
and the detailed weather reports show
ing no rain of consequence yesterday
in the southwest, with continued high
temperature, served to steady the mar
ket late in the forenoon, and prices at
midday showed a net gain of about
5ds points on covering by early sell
lers and continued support from trade
interests and leading bulls.
