LARGER RECEIPTS ON WHEAT
Market Closes Three Fourth To Two Gents
 Lower

CHICAGO, Aug. 11.-Increasing re- ceipts placed burden on wheat values today and the market closed unsettled, Ac to 2c net lower; September, $1.26h @1.26A, and December, $1.80A @1.30Ss. Corn finished 1Bc to 1hc down; oats, Ac to 1Mc off, and provisions at 12c to 40c decline.
 With the domestic visible supply total enlarged today 7,726,000 bushels, and with primary receipts today in excess of the aggregate both for a week and for the corresponding time last year, the wheat market showed a. downward ten- dency almost the entire day, especially during the last half hour. Aside from the pressure of immediate supplies, traders gave evidence of preparing for a bearish crop report from the Cana dian government. Moreover, it was said that frosts in Canada had probably been too light to damage grain.
 mand, together with upturns in foreign exchanges, failed to rally wheat prices to any decided extent, and so, too, did renewal of dry weather complaints from Argentina. Ideal crop conditions for spring wheat this sido of the Canadian boundary counted in some degree as an offset. ,-
 Corn and oats gave way with wheat. Besides, receipts of corn were a little heavier, and calendar traders, follow ing tradition, went to the selling side.
 Provisions were pulled down by the action of prices for grain and hogs.

FOREIGN ISSUES
 FEATURE CURB Europeans Rise With Fa- vOrable News On The
 Dawes Plan

NEW YORK; QHug. 1i.-Activity of foreign obligations provided the prin- cipal feature of interest in today's mod erately active bond market. News that the allied and German experts att tached to tie separations conference had reached a full agreement on the Dawes program was reflected in an early upward movement of the Euro pean issues, although most os them later fell back on profit-taking. The new Hungarian Is reached a high rec ord at 90.
 The advance of Japanese 4s to q 1924 top price and of the 61ss to within a fraction of the years high figure, fol- lowed by the announcement that bank CTS had granted $22,000,000 loan to the Industrial Bank of Japan on which principal and interest are guaranteed by the government. The bonds, which are Swear 6 per cent debentures,y will be sold tomorrow at 199A.
 Rumors of other financing attracted considerable attention in investment cir- cles. The second step in the B. G O.'s refunding program is expected to be taken later this week, with the sale of an issue totaling about $75,O00,000. Re- ports were teVIVed tndt the OOanlHlon of Canada would come to New York for the major part of It's financing this fall because of, better bond market con- ditions. The latest amount mentioned was between $t7o, ,O00, 900 and $1s0, 900. 900.
 Trading in railroad bonds was marked by contrasting price movements.

New York Central 6s, Katy adjustment 5s and Chicago and Alton 31ks were among the bonds to advance a point or so.

nrN,S REUIRW

NEW YORK, Aug. 11.-R. G. Dun 6 Co.'s current summary of general busi- ness conditions follows, in part:
 The trend toward business expansion, though not general, is distinct. Gains made in July, which marked the turning point in several basic lines, have been extended in certain instances, and the strengthening of confidence is an i'm portant phase. A reflection of the bet ter sentiment and a change from the previous attitude Is seen in a disposi- ton in some channels to widen the scope of operations, more inclination be- ing shown to make advance commit ments. The condition has not devel- oped where buying as a. whole runs beyond present or early needs, but in a number of cases more consideration is being given to forward requirements, and 1t is significant that there has been some ordering of steel for the fourth quarter. Output of that ma teriaI, despite the handicap of hot weather, has risen a little, and 1t seems not unlikely that the low level in pig iron production has been passed. Signs of revival likewise appear in some other branches of manufacture, textiles among them, and the recovery is the more encouraging because it results from an increase in actual contracts, rather than from a movement to pro- vide for possible purchases in the flu ture. The action of prices has shown plainly that there is a closer relation now between supply and demand, Dun's list of wholesale quotations for the fourth consecutive week disclosing more advances than declines. A rise of only 11a per cent in the index number last month marks a moderate change, but the figure for breadstuffs increased nearly per cent and the higher prices for various farm products have been the chief factor in the recent improvement tn domestic business. Developments at the London conferences on German rep arations have also added to the more optimistic feeling that generally pre- Vails

NEW ORLEANS COTTON

NEW ORLEANS, Aug. 1.-The cot ton market was nervous and cratic today, with fairly wide fluctuations in prices but less active trading than has been the rule of late. At the start the market showed an advancing tendency, mainly because of the fact that there has been no rain in Texas over Sunday and also because of the greater num- Der of reports of deterioration in that state. October traded up to 26.S7c and December to 26.92c, or 31 to 32 points above the previous close. Later in the morning the market eased off on indt- cations of rain in the west and an offi- cial forecast for showers in that sec tion. October eased off to 26.29c and December to 26.35c, or 57 to 5S points down from the earlier highs. A later rally on high temperatures and reports of deterioration in Texas led to the recovery of most of the decline and the close showed net gains for the day on the active trading months of to 4 points.
 One of the features of the day was the increase in the number of reports of actual deterioration in Texas.
 The official temperature records for Sunday showed that 27 stations in Texas experienced maximum tempera- lures of 100 to 10S degrees and 17 sta tions in Oklahoma reported 100 to 106 degrees. The government pars for the report of August 16 call for an in- crease of 1914 pounds per acre; hence. it will take a material deterioration in condition to hold the crop indiea- ton down to the last figures of 12,351,- 900 bales.
