dictments charging violation Of the
neutrality laws were returned here to-
day.
Recruiting Of the British army and
furnishing supplies to ships of war

BRYAN TO FAVOR WILSON.
Congressman CarIin Says Ex-Seere
tary Will Support President.

Washington, July S.-When William
Jennings Bryan, former secretary OF
state, was en- route west from Wash
ington he was asked how he stood
with reference to the denomination OF
President Wilson.
The Baltimore platform expresses
my views" he is quoted as having re-
piled.
Now Congressman Carlin of Virginia
says he has letter written by Mr..
Bryan which will confound HIM In this
connection. This letter, according to
all information that can DE obtained.
absolutely precludes the former secre-
tary from opposing the nomination and
election of President Wilson on the
ground that the Baltimore convention
pledges the nominee of the convention
to serve one term only, If elected. Mr..
Carln says Bryan will support VIII

It has long been understood that
when Mr. Bryan's views were sought
by the committee he wrote letter

Review Of Market Conditions
Current Quotations.

| Chicago, July S.-Hog prices showed
weakness today, influenced by arrivals
being more numerous than on the GER
responding day week ago.
Receipts the first half of this week
aggregated $4,000, a decrease Of $4,000
compared with the same period last
week and an increase of $500 COM
pared with the corresponding three
days last year. The light receipts did
not seem to help the sellers much as
packers were in a mood to force the
common grades lower Quality was
| much palmer than a short time ago
and the range OF prices looked the
widest of the season. Shipping orders
were not very liberal, but the supply
of prime stock was short. anyway, and
sellers were benefited little by the out
side call.
Eleven markets received u, 800 hogs
Wednesday, or 1900 less than last
Wednesday, $500 less than year ago
and 1920 less than two years ago.
Total the first half of this week 225,-
600. or $4,000 less thar same period last
week, $4,000 more than like time last
year and $4,000 less than correspond
ing three days two years ago. Total
for 1915 to date 14,602,O00, or 2.066000
more than corresponding time 1913.
Cattle.
The cattle supply was not over
plentiful.
Mid week supply was right in line
with the advance car report but the
proportion Of combined stuff was the
smallest of the year. That killers
needed the good ones was evident at
the outset Prices on corn feds were
the highest of the year, rev set OF
tops being made.
Wholesale and retail prices Of meat
have been marked up without causing
any material disturbance of trade con-
ditions. Last winter. when cattle were
cheap. the public did not want beef,
but despite the advance in cost con-
sumers are now going to it.
A year ago good cattle were crawling
up but the top on the corresponding
day of 1914 was but 1915, 'sttllers SELL
ing at $40 which was high point on
the crop The limit on yearlings then
was 1886 and the bulk Of steers sold
at sS75@9.25. At that time dry pas
lures and high cost Of corn forced
thousands Of ss.5o@s cattle to market
that would otherwise have been held
until later.
A study in spreads is not uninterest-
ing at this juncture. This week
range of $500 1O is taking the big end
of the steer crop while year ago the
bulk sold at s7.50@9.50. The extreme
range now is sS@1O.25 against $500
9.75 a year ago Two years ago the
extreme range was s7.15@s.15 and
three years ago it was $3.50 G9.7o.
Four years ago. s4.75@7 took the bulk.
The spread has been narrower than
usual this year. owing to good grass
which has held light cattle back.
Sheep.
Sheep and lambs were scarce.
Expectancy of materially lighter
runs the remainder of the week was
sustaining influence to the price list
today. but few loads of range stock
being in sight for tomorrow and the
break earlier in the week being counted
upon to check the run of natives.

Washington, July Stew financial
subjects are receiving more attention
| today among officials concerned with
the country's fiscal affairs and among
fnanciers and leading bankers than
the foreign exchanges and the influx
Of gold into the United States.
The appalling expenditures caused
by the war on the part OF the leading
European belligerents are turning
financial and business conditions Of the
world. measured by conditions q year
or more ago, well nigh>topsy- turvy. In
deed. latterly good deal has been
heard that the leading countries in
the war would soon be forced to peace
or bankruptcy. that the conflict must
soon end for lack Of means to con-
tinue it, and so on. Such views are ta-
ken with grain of salt In well-ln-
formed circles here because. tense as
is the financial trouble Of the bellig-
erents. 1t has to be admitted that they
have had far less difficulty than was
forecasted when the war broke out;
and certainly very much less difficulty
than would have been foretold when

it would have continued for year or
more.
Coming Our Way.
So far as this country is concerned.
one Of the most striking phases Of the
situation Is the movement Of gold to
the United States. a movement grow
ing out of the enormous balance Of
trade in favor of this country. The
heavy liquidation Of American securi-
ties hello abroad for speculative pur
poses has not served to prevent
heavy flow Of gold to America. This
has amounted to more than 100000
900 since the present calendar year
opened. that is. since Jan. I.
Thus, the talk that the United States
would be drained Of its gold supply.
which was so prevalent when the war
opened, has come to nothing. Not only
that, but the presence Of an enormous
quantity Of gold-an abnormal supply
presents real problem for the
country
Every reason exists for the belief
that the influx OF gold will increase.
The trade conditions as between this
country and Europe is utterly one
sided 1t is in favor OF this country
