York-Low Prices in Chicago
"Pit" Surprising.

NEW YORK, July 29.--The local
ste elk market opened today with trad
ins feverish and in large volume.

points in Amalgamated and Utah
Coppers, Great Northern preferred,
Reading. Can, Smelling and some of
the less active issues,
Canadian Pacific, weakest of yester-
days international stocks, sustained
only a slight loss. Steel and some of
the other leaders were relatively firm.
There was a big opening in the
wheat market with prices down about
Az cents under heavy liquidation by
yesterdays buyers, but prices later
krallied two cents a bushel on less ia
vorable cable news and a renewal of
excited buying. Cotton on the other
hand broke from IL to "a points in re-
Spouse to weak cables and the gloomy
European outlook, together with pros
poets for rain in Texas. Coffee opened
weak and from 10 to "a points on

weak European markets.

dropped an additional two cents or
more: then there was a sudden re-
bound of more than three cents, fol-
lowed by another descent, but in this
case not quite so violent.

to their utmost capacity. The COM
motion among the traders, however,
after operations actually began, was
terday when news was received that
war had been declared

of Trade held a special meeting this
morning to discuss the advisa bility of
closing the board because of the tense
situation. They finally decided to let
the board remain open for the time
being.
Announcement that all firms on
change had safely passed the clear
ing house brought out immediate evil
'dence of relief. The feeling of inn
proved confidence because of no fall
ures having occurred was reflected by
lively advance from bottom prices.
The upturn in some cases amounted
TO more than a cent a bushel.

direction of limitation of the con-
fiict to Austria and Servia. Until
satisfied of the failure of his efforts
to induce Russia's neutrality, the
Kaiser will continue, through pres
sure on Emperor Franz Joseph, to
hold the Austrian army on the north
bank of the Danube.
Unless the Car can be induced to
reconsider, the first advance of tho
Austrian forces across the Danube
would force Russia's hand. The Gar
would make good on his threat to
smobilize. To avert a general Euro
pean war after that would be diff
cult.
In official circles this evening 1t is
believed the next twenty-four hours
will bring a final decision from Rus
STA. 1t is generally reported that the
plea on which the Kaiser is endeavor-
ing to move the Gar to reconsidera-
ton of his announced support of
Servia by arms Is the pledge that ter
ritorial extension is not sought In the
war.
Pessimism relgned here tonight
over the possibilities of peace.
