TRADE Is EXPANDING;
STOCKS IRREGULAR

NEW YORK, July 26.-Further signs
of expansion in many branches Of trade
and manufacture accompanied this
weeks less active and more irregular
movements of the stock market.
The enlargement was most notewor-
thy in the steel and iron trade with its
greatly increased bookings and higher
prices, the extraordinary demand for
such commodities as textiles and leath-
ers and in the further enormous value
of bank clearin, s.

most noticeable drawback, trading in

tobaccos and food shares continued to

though subjected to occasional revers-
ais on profit taking and bearish pres

One of the weeks most reassuring
features vas the partial restoration OF
exchange rates on the more important
foreign centers. The rally in sterling
was due principally to several internal
tional undertakings, including the pur-
chase of a large block of English -owned
oil shares by Kuhn, Loeb & Co.

KANSAS WHEAT CROP
PROMISE IS REDUCED

TOPEKA, Kas., July ga decrease
OF more than $1,000, 900 bushels in the
Kansas wheat crop Is shown in the
July crop report of the Kansas state
board of agriculture. The June report
indicated a yield of 229, 217, 900 bushels
as against a total estimated production
based upon threshing returns Of 1885,.
999, 200 bushels forecast today.
The chief reason for this failure was
the abrupt change from the cool wealth
err that prevailed all spring and sum-
mer to the extremely high tempera-
lures ten days or two weeks before har-
vest. An excess of rain Is also given
as one OF the chief causes for the poor
showing made.
On the states 4,358, 900 acres Of grow
ing corn, the report says, the condition
averages 1917 per cent. This is a gain
of 4.3 per cent in the last month. The
estimated yield Of potatoes is 5,518, 00O
bushels, or an average Of 1877 bushels

with a week ago, corn quotations TINS

dearer by 37c to $3.50.
Dry, hot weather, day after day. and
no rain in sight exercised a constant

and SO likewise did lessening of hog
receipts and successive overlapping OF
all previous hog values. Only absence
| rain appeared capable of holding the
corn market from a further ascent.

car shortage was developing In the Md

Oats climbed to the highest prices

less than the average. p
Provisions derived their strength
from the upturns Of grain and hogs.
