tfieyartnow. Oi.e would naturally think
thai tanners would under these circum
stance hold baik their lie stock until it

sure thai, n I wai-a tanner, I would not m
the in cm nt condition of the cattle trade
send unripe stock to market. Eastern stock

The meadow liai c been so recently cut that
there is little iittei pas in the holds and

GRAIN GOING UP.
The Boom of the Day IJerore Continued
Yesterday A General Advance Wheat
Closes Xenons and Fluctuating llog
Products Up, While Hogs Are Down.
CniCAGO There was another boom in
wheat to-day and another advance in priebs
was scored. The early news was nearly all
of a bullish character. A foreign crop au
thonty gavo an estimate of tho world'
wheat ci op, which made the total yield of
tho yeir 60,000 000 bushels Bhort of the con
sumptive demand. Paris cables reported
an advance of 1 frano on wheat, and 3
francs on flour, based on late Russian ad
vices and the fact that the French crop is
turning out worse than expected. Liver
pool was firm. Rains and warm weather
in the Xorthw est caused fears of damage
from rust, and, Anally, the receipts were 110
cars under the estimate. About the only
bearish piece ot now and it had little or no
effect was a cable, saying that pnecs had
fallen 4 marks in Bremen because of the
collapse of the July comer there, and that
the clique w ere settling with the shorts.
The market opened quiet, and for the first
15 minutes trade was dull and the feeling
seemed inclined to weakness. For a time
the buying w-as slow and cautious, and the
selling rather free Foi some time Decem
ber held between &?4 and &-Jj, and showed
no decided trend m either direction. Then,
to aid the bull news already received, in
cluding a rumor that Russia had prohibited
the exportation of bread-tuffs, came heavj
buying oiders from Xew York and St. Louis,
and the Northwest also began to take a.
good deal of w heat. Shorts took alarm, and
under the sharp buying the advance was re
mmkablj rapid December selling up to 89
ma few minutes and with much excitement.
Atter touching 8aj, lealizmg sales sent it
backtotf It reai-ted to 8 and receded
again to J-irV After the noon hour the mar
ket was unsettled and alternate! v w eak and
strong. December sold up to 8S, hack to
88, then up excitedly to 90i. Ihe feolmg
tow aid the close was verj nervous anil
fevensh, w ith advances secured more easily
than declines. The close was at S9 against
SSi at the close J csterday.
Cora was stiong most of the day. There
we: e a few weak spots, but they did not last
long, shorts seemed distiosed to cover
while there was not much for sale. Altera
time the sharp advanco in w heat gave much
strength to corn. Receipts weie lighter
than expected As the doj advanced the
maiket continued to develop stiength. The
aborts coveied freely. There wasanactive
demand for the cash article, and tin- stirred
up the shoits in July, who excitedl bid that
month up to 60)c at tho close. September
started at SZ&., sold up to KPc, rallied to
SlJiiC, broke to 52c, then m-ar the close
boomed to 55)c and closed .'.t 55c.
Oats were stionir and higher, July showing
the most stiengtlfon the small receints of
new oats. That featuio closed at 41c against
3J2 at the cloe yesterday, w nilo September
closed nt 27JfeC against S7c yeterday.
llog products were higiier m sympathy
with wheat, though hojs were lower. Mioits
in poik became alarmed and proceeded to
cox er their trades amid considerable excite
ment The bulls were assited by higher
piicesabioid September poik opened at
111 4, broke to sll 40. sold up, with some
fluctuation, to $11 70, receded to $11 65, ral
lied to $11 5 and closed at $11 72 against
$11 47K nt the cloe 5 e-terday. Lard closed
with an adt ance of 1012Kc, and nbs w eie 5
gijc higher.

Tno Northside is to have a now and im
portant manufacturing plant, the initial
step toward which was taken yesterday,
when W. A. Ilerron & Sons sold a six-acre
tract of ground situated in the Ninth ward
for $90,000. The pui chasers, who are at tho
head of a largo local manufacturing con
cern, intend erecting a laige plant on this
property for the production of a specialty
for which there is an unlimited maiket.
There is a Jease on the property, and the
date for beginning improvements will bo
governed by the time consumed in getting
absolute possession, hut as littlo difficulty in
this respect is apprehended, it is safe to siy
that the necessary buildings will be com
pleted and the works in operation within a
year. Tho buildings will cost from $100,000
to $150,000, which added to the cost of the
ground, $90,000, will make the completed
plant cost $200 000 or more. It will give em
ployment to 400 or 500 men.

TRADING RESTRICTED TO A SMALL
JAG OF PHILADELPHIA GAS.
Almost a Dead Calm Bears Still Hammer
ing a Stock That Deserves Better Treat
ment Luster Continues Its Upward
Movement Exchange Seats Take a
Tumble.
The local stock market was becalmed yes
terday. The only salo was that of 10 shares
of Philadelphia Gas at 10. This is the
lowest figure yet reached by this stock, and
aieaction is in order. There is nothing in
the condition of the company, or tho stato
of supply, so far as known, to warrant the
slumps. A few good buying oiders would
change tho tune which the bears aie singing.
Luster was the bull card. It opened strong
at 12 and closed at 12, with little or none
offered. It is evident that the buyers are
noting upon Information denied to outsid
ers. Electric was a shade weaker, with no
demand. It is said the Exchange will tako
action to make assented stock regular.
Switch and Signal, Airbrake and Undor
pround cable closed better than the opening.
The Tractions were featureless.
StockExchange seats arc in need of uphol
stering. In Pittsburg theyare slow at about
$100. They sold in flush times as high as
$1,300. In Now York a year ago they sold at
$21,500: now they are $1,000 cheaper. Consoli
dited memberships have gone from $100 to
$210, and, though Pioduce Exchange seats
are unchanged at $31.0, Cotton Exchange
quotations have gone fi om 653 asked a year
ago to $115, and Coffee Exchange figures
hae shrunk from $550 asked last July to
$360 now. At Boston there has been a de
cline from $19,500 to $19,0o0. These facts show
the trend of the speculative pulse.

Ne5v York, July 22. The dealings in the
stock market to-day were marked by even
less featuie than those of the preceding
days, though the general tendency of prices
under tho influence of the covering of shorts
by tho trading element was upw ard. There
was no real stiength in the market, how
ever, and the fluctuations were on the same
limited scalo as usual of late and possessed
little significance.
At tho highest prices a few stocks showed
material gains over last evening's figures,
thn nnp irri.iil: eynHiitlnTi hmnrr Smrnr. which
55 as allowed to drop a5ay 05 or 1 per cent by I
tno manipulators, ane couieoi tins siock
had not the slightest influence upon the
railroad list, nor even upon the other Indus
trials. Tho market to-day 5vas helped by
foreign purchases, and as usual, when this is
detected, there was a desire to cover shorts
shown by tho tiadeis, and the buying by
these two interests served to keep pi ices
firm to strong throughout the greater por
tion of the day. Union Pacific and St. Paul
were specially prominent for strength, but
the advances on otheis, including Burling
ton, were confined to fractional amounts in
all cases.
A strong opening 5vas followed by further
gains 01 large mictions in tne raiiroaa 11st,
though Burlington was kept down by the
rumors of further bond issues, and the In
dustrials were rather heavy with decided
5 eakness in Sugar after the early advanoe.
Tho stocks with an international market
under the circumstances naturally took tho
lead in the npwaid moiement, and Union
Pacific and St. Paul scoied the largest gains,
the others being content with fractional
changes only. The downward movement in
Sugar 5vas re orsed in the late trading and
nearly all the loss was recovered. Cordage
at tho samo time showed more animation
without material clnngc. The market held
its early advances w ell, though the upward
movement culminated toward 1 p.m. and
finally closed dull but Aim at about tho best
prices of the day. The final changes are al
most hv ariahly small fractional advances,
but Union Pacific shows a gain of 1 per cent,
being alone in that respect.
Itailroad bonds were dull as usual, and
failed to respond to tho better feeling in tho
6haro list, but displayed a steady to firm
tone, with only slight changes among the
activo issues. There were a few important
fluctuations, howev er, and Xew York Ele
vated Firsts lost 3Kc. The business done
amounted to only $591,000, with 110 special
animation in anything.

GARDEN STUFF A GLUT.

Wednesday, July 22. 5
Cotrcmvr Produce (Jobbing Prices) Mar
kets are glutted with farm and garden prod
ucts, and the whole drift of things is down
ward. A good quality of Southern potatoes
sold on track to-day at $1 50 per barrel. To
matoes, green beans, cabbage and melons
nre coming in such quantities and markets
aie so demoralized that the shipper who can
save enough to pay freight bills will be for
tunate. The fact is that receipts of vegeta
bles this week have been far beyond the
absorbing power of our markets. Raspber
ries are nearing their end for this season and
aro in fair demand. Bla ckberrles and huckle
berries are in abundant supply and slow.
Apples are improving in quality and declin
ing In price. Ohio cheese is higher, as quota
tions below will disclose. Jobbers look for
an advance in creamery butter next week.

good for all good stock ottered
