weekly review;
Local cotton nnd cotton yarn dealers ro
port practically no chance In tho local
cotton situation. Duslnesa generally Is
very quiet, althouBh at times for n few
days thero Is a good demand. Tho de
mand Is mostly for numbers used by
manufacturers of underwear. These num
bers nt tho present time nro somewhat
scarce. Hosiery mills are generally dull,
with the exception of those manufactur
ing tho higher grndo of hosiery. Weavers I
also report Dusiness quiet, una are not
anticipating any change for tho near fu
ture. Tho Iron and ateel market presents no
special features, but the general opinion
appears to bo that conditions are Improv
ing. Foreign buying Is extensive nnd do
mestic business Is somewhat Improved.
Mills nro operating at Increased capacity
and manufacturers of mnohlno tools aro
well employed, while locomotive builders
are reported to have entered heavily Into
the maKlng of goods for export purposes,
rig Iron continues more or lesa inactive,
but the demand for foundry Iron Is some
what better. Finished material Is stronger
and structural material Is reported Im
proving, a good demand being noted from
shipyards, which increases the capacity
of mills. Building work, however, re
quiring structural material, is reported
rather quiet. Prices aro generally firm
and collections fair.
The Btove trade la well employed on
supplementary heating apparatus and a
fair volume of business is noted In staple
goods. Foundries are operating at about
60 per cent, capacity. Prices are re
ported firm and collections fair. The
leather market continues firm and prices
high. Glared kid la In moderate demand
for domestic trade and export trade Is
In no sense normal.

CHICAOO, July 2. The unexpected
strength displayed by July wheat teas
tlio only fenturo of the market at the
opening today. Bears were active, but
their efforts -were fruitless. Limited of
ferings nnd the shorts' anxiety tl cover
were said to be responsible for the firm
ness.
July, which closed yesterdny at $1.07Vi
bid, sold for tl.03 when the tlay'a busi
ness hegnn. Snlcs were ecattered. The
price advanced H before noon.
Neither September or December showed
July's strength. The sales were few in
tho early hours. September, In opening
nt 102J. evened up with laBt nlght't
closing prlcea.
December occupied a. similar position
to that held by September. The opening
price, 10GH, was the samo na the closing
price of yesterday, July and December
corn sold a trifle off when compared
with the closing bids of yesterday, but
September registered n slight gain. Price
stiffened Inter.
Further gains woro recorded In tho aft
ernoon session, July closing at ll.llli,
September at 91.04 nnd December at
J1.07.
July and September oats rose over
yesterday's closing, with December sell
ing off for U. Advances were made In
the early hours -of trading.
Better export nnd mlllors' demands are
expected to hold tho prices steady, oven
though tho weather reports become more
favorable to big. yields.
Exports sales recorded were 300,000,
bushels of new wheat and SlO.OOO bushels
of old oats, Chicago cash houses re
ported Bales of 100,000 bushels of oats.
The Influence of strong American anl
Argentine markets has added strength to
the Liverpool market as a better de
mand Is being felt. Shipments this wee
from India to tha United Kingdom totaled
1.750,000 bushels.
It Is reported that Russia can ship only
16,000,000 bushels old wheat If tho Darda
