WHEAT DECLINES ON
GENERAL SELLING
Heavy Sales for Profit Cause
Slump in Prices
NEW WHEAT COMING IN
alixing Sales By Leading Longs.
Both Oats and Provisions
Close Irregular

Chicago, July 1S.-Huge sales to take
profits and to hedge the free movement
of the winter crop weakened wheat this
afternoon, but not until a new high-price
record for the season had been reached,
the third within as many successive days.
The close was irregular, A@9sc net lower
to 15c advance. Corn finished 1s@Ac down
to bc up; oats with 1sc loss to Nc gain
and provisions unchanged to &c higher,
except July pork, which showed He-
cline of zoe.
The new wheat which arrived here to-
day did not find ready market except
with warehouse men, who looked askance
at fancy grades. An unusual proportion
of the arrivals was of high quality OF
No. l and considerable was held over I'M
sold. At Kansas City alone 100000 BUSH
els came in. 1t was notable that the
wheat bought here today to arrive was
largely from Indiana and Illinois, where
rains have been frequent and heavy OF
late. Weakness at Minneapolis, attrib-
uted to the pressure of winter wheat from
the southwest had decided effect here
In the latter part of the day. During the
first half of the session dry weather
northwest, crop damage in France, and
a notable collection of bulish statistics
pushed prices upward. Selling of nearby
options and the purchase of deferred de-
liveries was done on large scale by ele-
vator interests. The tone of the market
at the wind-up was nervous and unset
tied. September ranged from no7ss to
$1.Os, closing Aso to AQssc down, at sl.o79s
@107A.
Corn suffered material reaction, based
on realizing sales by leading longs. sep
TENDER huctuated between 61sc and e2ssc,
with the close easy, at 61A@61ssc, net
loss of 1sQ14c The cash market was firm
No. yellow closed at 64%@65c.
Selling by longs and against purchases
of the new crop to arrive eased off the
oats market High and low points for the
day In the September option were 4Oc and

SHARP ADVANCE IS
SCORED in COTTON
New Crop Months Take Sud-
den Upward Squirt
MARKET OPENS HIGHER
After the Opening Trading Becomes
Excited Owing to the Continued
Strength of July and Adj
verse Crop Reports

New York. July 1S.-Whie July shorts
were less active today, there was con-
tinued urgent demand not only for other
old crop months, but for later deliveries
as well, and the market ruled generally
very firm. with July making a new. high
record for the season, and with all later
months selling into new higher ground for
the current movement. The close was
firm at net advance of points on July,
with later deliveries showing net gains of
from ~ to 80 points.
The market opened firm at an advance
of from II to 26 points, with July con-
tracts selling at 16.5Sc, or 2 points above
the high level of Saturday. Trading was
active and the market was very excited,
owing to the sensational strength of the
old crop positions as revealed by the
near-month squeeze, talk of unsatisfac-
tory weather over Sunday, and the bull
lish average of private reports. August
and September shorts were particularly
active after the opening, but the whole
list, with the exception of July, showed
the presence of a broadening demand, and
while there We're slight reactions during
the middle of the day, the high point was
not reached Nate In the afternoon,
when August sold at 15.7ic and October
at 1320c, or 33 toss points net higher. The
close was at practically the best point of
the day on the new crop deliveries.
After the early advance, trading in July
was comparatively quiet and the price
sagged off several points from the best,
but 1t was considered doubtful around the
ring whether this reflected complete elini-
nation of the July short interest through
the covering of last week and the ship
ments of cotton here from the south and
Liverpool, or whether it was merely lull
in the covering movement.
Arrivals of cotton reported here today
were over $4,000 bales, including some $3.50
bales from Liverpool, and it Is claimed
that perhaps $4,000 bales of cotton Is being
shipped here partly by rail from the
south in order to deliver ON July con-
tracts. Weather reports showed further
showers or rains east of the MISSISSIPPI
river while it was dry in the western
belt with hot winds reported in Texas,
and spinners were reported to be buying
new crop months during the day. South
ern spot markets were unchanged TO isc
higher
Receipts of cotton at the ports today
were 10. $50 bales, against 6,518 last week
and $3.50 last year. For the week. 10000
bales. against 37.410 last week and 1851
last year Today's receipts at New Or
leans, 1868 bales, against 1867 last year
and at Houston 407 bales, against 1893 last
year.

FLOUR IS SOARING
ON MORRIS AVENUE
Highest Price in Years Is Now
Looked For
AN ADVANCE OF 25 CENTS
Shortage In Wheat Crop Has Made Il
Impossible for Grain Dealers to
FIJI Orders-Present Prices
Are Very Unstable
AN ADVANCE OF 25 CENTS

Due to damage done the wheat crops
of Kentucky and the middle west by the
recent heavy rains, -four has gone soar
ing, and indications are that prices will
rise higher than has been tho case within
the last five years.
An increase of % cents per barrel for
flour was recorded yesterday on Morris
avenue, while white oats rose cents per
bushel. Anticipating greater rise, local
grain merchants yesterday Immediately
began buying -four, one firm giving an
order at once for 1000 barrels.
The shortage In the wheat crop has
made 1t impossible for wholesale grain
merchants to fill orders already taken,
and few are now in a position to take
orders. One company reports that 5000
barrels have been oversold and that it Is
impossible to fill the demand.
The present prices fixed are very I'M
stable, due to the frenzy in the market,
and quotations are likely to shoot up
rapidly Grain dealers say they are pre-
pairing for the worst.

Hubbard Bros. q Co... Letter

New York. July 49, Special 1.-THE mar
ket opened with a vigorous buying of
July and August and a strong sentiment
fostered by excellent cable advices, but
on the advance came extensive llquida-
ton and the July trading became slug
gish, August taking its place On the
demand new crops showed strength. The
buying was largely by foreign houses
and local covering, excepting investment
buying later in the day. The sharp
advance raises the question whether the
market can be sustained after the old
crop interest has been closed. Georgia
sends poor crop reports. A local esti-
mator figures a slight improvement in
Texas. General rains east of the Mis-
sissippi are interpreted as bullish and
Texas temperatures are high, 107 to no,
with no rain

PRICES OF STOCKS
YIELD TO PRESSURE
Demand Is Not Equal to the
Offerings BY Dealers
MARKET VERY NARROW
In Spite of the Early Weakness Losses
Are Partially Recovered Before
the Days Trading Comes
to Close

New York, July 1S.-Inadequacy or de-
mand to absorb offerings was plain to-
day. and prices yielded to recurrence
of selling pressure Withholding of large
operators was responsible for the lack of
strength.
The source and motive of the fresh sell
ing today were not clear beyond the
participation of a party of board room
traders who took the short side OF the
market prompted by the yielding ten
dency disclosed by the market.
A current assumption was that stocks
were thrown over by market organi-
.ation which accumulated holdings last
week and was dissatisfied with the nlea-
ger demand of any upward advance.
The narrow proportions of the market
came into view In the latter part OF the
day, when 1t became plain 1t was bare
of offerings again. Professionals were ap-
sent, as indicated by the heavy conges-
ton In three or four stocks. Losses were
nearly recovered before the day was over
and there were not few gains to be
found. There was much discussion of
the trade position In the leading metal
Industries. and this was held RESPONSE
BILE for much of the then prevailing weak
ness In stocks.
Predictions were made of further con-
SESSIONS in prices with the continued &C
emulation of stocks.
The large stocks of copper on hand are
believed to have played some part In the
credit position of the banks and to be the
object of pressure in that way from the
directors of larger banking and financial
affairs.
The great powers welded by the con-
ficting interests in the production of
copper are believed, however, to add to
the difficulty of securing concessions
thought to be necessary for a healthy
trade position
Reports of a scaling down in prices of
steel products added to the feeling of
uneasiness over the metal trade position.
The labor dispute between the Pennsyl-
vania railroad and its employees was not
much considered in connection with the
early decline and the prospects for settle .
ment had later influence. y
Additional engagements of gold in Lon
don for importation were of no influence
on the market. +
A strong banking position, as disclosed
ed from the Importance of the money
market as an influence.
Last weeks shipments of gold from
London will figure In next Saturdays
bank statement and today's engagements
of $3,000,000 gold offering In London prom
ise an extension of the movement.
Wide discrepancy between the London
discount rate at per cent and the rate
on six months time loans and mercantile
paper above 5 per cent came in for its
scrutiny on, exchange rates. London
ruled above the level which offered q
profit on gold imports In aneordinary -ex-
change transaction.
Prominence OF the spring wheat gran
gers In the rally Of prices was not I'M
connected with the weakness OF the
wheat markets In the northwest
Bonds were irregular. Total sales, par
value, $1,421,000
United States bonds were unchanged on

Barn Burned by Lightning

Florence, July 1s.-(Special. )-Lightning
played another deadly prank in Lauder
dale county last night when 1t struck the
barn owned by Willis Phillips, six miles

moved from the burning stable she was
badly burned but will recover. At s
O. o'clock last night there was severe
electrical storm, accompanied by rain
which amounted to a cloudburst.
