PROFIT TAKING NIPS
ADVANCES IN WHEAT
Market Ends Weak and Lower
Despite Bullish Z. s. Crop
Report.

CHICAGO. Aug. 10.-Heavy profit TAX
ing sales In the wheat market to-day
more than wiped out advanced due to
the Government crop report. Prices closed
weak Il to "a cents net lower. with
September s1.2l q 10 S1.22 and Decem-
9 cents. oats 9s@& TO sol cent and
provisions to so cents.
Although the wheat market opened
with general buying and a material up
turn the fact soon became evident that
speculation had fully discounted what
ever was bullish in the official crop esti.
mates. Much of the selling on the ad-
vance came from big elevator con-
Germ. The volume of offerings from this
source and from other houses that CO.
operated proved far too great for the
buying power in the market and caused
values to move down grade during al
most the whole session. despite export
purchasing here of about 200 bushels
and notwithstanding that 10000 barrels
OF flour had been taken at the seaboard,
partly for Russian relief. Some inter-
est was shown in a British estimate
putting the worlds probable import
needs at 632. 900 bushels, as against
an estimated exportahle surplus OF 664,-
600, 900 bushels.
Enlarged country offerings weakened
corn. Oats fell in sympathy.
Sharp breaks In hogs pulled down
provisions.

OFFERS S15,OOO,OOO
OF WESTERN UNIONS
Brokers Get Big Bond Issue,
First Financing Of Com
pany Since 1907.

The Western Union Telegraph Com
pany has sold s15.ooo.0oo fifteen year
sIh per cent. gold bonds TO Kuhn. Loeb
& Co, and the bankers will offer the
issue to-day for subscription ct 80 and
accrued interest. to yield more than $50
per cent. on the investment II held to
maturity. Not only Is this the first
issue Of fixed debt since 1907 but the
first issue Of any sort OF capital secu-
rifles made by the company since that
date.
The new bonds will not be redeemable
before maturity. and the Chase National
Sc nix is trustee for the issue. The pur-
rose OF the financing is to reimburse the

tions and improvements to It's plant ana
equipment outside of New York state

ssons additions and improvements also
outside OF New York. That much Of
such previous expenditures has been

BY the statement that including the pres
ent issue the company has outstanding
a funded debt Of only S46.s94,OO0, or
considerably less than half the capital
stock outstanding which has par value
OF s99.7S6,727.

NEW SELLING DIPS
COTTON AFTER RISE
Weather Continues to Govern
Market, Which Is Quiet
and Narrow.

An early advance OF 10 to 22 points
In yesterdays cotton market brought out
sufficient new selling to cause a re-
action 10 a level little below Tues
days final bids. The market as a whole
was quiet and narrow. with business
largely scalping by local professionals.
The finish was somewhat above the low
est. l point higher on May, but l to Z
points lower on the rest Of the list
The weather situation continued to
govern the course of values. The weekly
weather report, though decidedly bullish.
had been discounted. Only a report
much worse than expected could have
caused a continuation of the upward
movement. The immediate weather In
the cotton belt was bit better. the only
showers.
First prices were to IL points net
higher, rejecting Liverpool cables and
support from certain spot houses and
Wall Street shorts. The list was soon
about u of cent pound better than
the preceding finals. Foreign interests
liquidated on the way UP. but the list
showed a small gain until the early part
of the afternoon. A Manchester cable
stating that the lack Of foreign orders
was depressing the cotton market of
that centre received little attention here.
The weekly weather report said that
cotton deteriorated in most sections of
Texas. where the warm. dry weather
caused shedding and killed some plants.
The official forecast for the belt to-day
promised thunder showers and partly
cloudy conditions. In the fourth hour
the market dropped about to 16 points
under Tuesdays close. 1t was rumored
that a new local short line had been put
out. Prices recovered from the low In
the last half hour and the official closing
was steady.
The local spot market was off points
to 1925 cents
