A BEARISH OPENING.
Ilenvy ISujIng on Foreign Orders Sends
Prices Up Later Shorts Began to Cover
Itnpldly and Purchases 'Were Freely
Made at an Advance.
CHICAGO The feeling in tho wheat pit
was rather bearish at tho opening this
morning, and the tendency for the first few
minutes was downward. It was a holiday
in England and there were no cables from
Liverpool to affect values. Receipts were
50 carloads more than the estimates. The
weather in the Xorthwest was perfect for
harvesting which Is well under way and
earlier than usual, with an Immense crop
assured, and buyers were indifferent. De
cember, which opened at S9Jc against 9c
at tho close on Saturday, sold off to89Kc
Then New York and St. Louis came In with
heavy buying orders and a cablegram from
Paris quoted the weather wet and cold,
prices 50 centimes higher and the condition
of the spring wheat crop of Franco ns hope
less. These things turned the tide and tho
shorts began rapidly to cover.
Logan, S. V.White, Schwartz Dupee, 3Iil
mine Bodmnn and Counselman were all good
buyers, and some oxcltcment was develoned,
the price making n quick Jump to 9iyi-an
advance of 2 cent in less than an hour.
Then it became evident that there would
bo an immense increase in the visible sup
ply, and under free selling tho market went
offto9i4. There was a reaction to 91 later,
on advices trom New York that foreign
houses were cood buyers, and that so they
boat loads had been taken for export early
in the day; later it was made 75 loads up to
noon.
The market was rather nervous dnrinir tho
last hour. After selling up to 90)i for De
cember there was a quick rally to Slyf, and a
recession to 91, hut the closo was firm at 91
on buying bj prominent local houses, who
rallied on the Fi ench crop advices.
Corn sympathized closely with wheat in
the early trading. Tuc receipts were nbout
HO carloads more than were expected. Sep
tember opened at 5G'4, against 57J at the
close on Saturdn . The market was slow for
the first 13 minutes, selling to 5GJc, hut when
wheat started upward corn did hkew ise and
tho price of September jumped to 5Se in
short oiiler, hut weakened a little, then ad
vanced to 5SJic, shorts becoming anxious
and covering lrccly. There was a recession
to 5Sc, then another advance, this time to
3-Mo. The feeling was easier toward the
close, how ever, the shorts having recovered
from their fright, and September receded to
57?c, at which it closed. The final w cakness
was assisted by the estimate of COO carloads
as to-morrow's receipts.
Oats were, quiet, but rather strong all day
in sympathy with higher prices of corn and
wheat, though the fluctuations in that cereal
w ere less marked in the others.
Hog products were firm; the receipts were
3OU0 under the estimates and prices
were 5c higher. The strength in the wheat
ana corn were also stronger in the fluctua
tions. The business was light and provis
ions steady. The close was near the closing
of Saturday.

Local Speculators Still Waiting for Some

OFFICE AND STREET NEWS AND GOSSIP
A brief survey of the business situation
seems timely at the opening of the week.
Facts and opinions from various reliable
sources go to show that the financial situa
tion is sound and tho activities of the coun
try on a substantial basis.
Tho August interest and dividend dis
bursements amount to about $22,000,000. This
vast sum will have to be invested. This will
give a powerful impetus to all lines of trade.
Money at tho lending financial centers,
particularly New Y'ork, is rather more sensi
tive, with a more rigid scrutiny of names
and collaterals on applications for time con
tracts, and firmer rates for such loans. Tho
disposition on tho part ol lenders appears to
be to obtain absolutely good security and
otherwiso to insure the repayment of tho
loan or else not to lend their money on time
at all.
A veteran stock operator siys: "Thero is
nobody at home to buy stock3. The bears
have got all tho rumors on their sldo nnd
tired holdcis have sold out, but when gold
starts from the other side, as I think It will,
the market will go up ten points easier than
it has gone down two, and there will bo
more bear failures in 30 days than thero
have bull failures in three years. I don't
believe in all this talk about largo foreign
banking houses being in trouble."
Locally there have been no now develop
ments affecting the intrinsic value of share
pioperties, excepting, perhaps, tho Central
Traction decision, and the general condi
tions as regards present and prospective
earnings are very encouraging.
Tho crop situation continues very favora
ble, and lurnlshes a strong contrast with
that of a year ago. Then tho condition of
the growing grains was going from bad to
worse, and the outlook daily getting moro
unsatisfactory. This year the yield of win
ter wheat is exceptionally large, and indica
tions point to an unusually heavy crop of
spring wheat.
Another satisfactory feature in the general
outlook is found In the generally good re
ports of railroad earnings which are coming
to hand. Gains in May and the early part of
June were small over those of a year ago,
but later there came a change and the im
piovement has been fully maintained.
The financial Chronicle reports some uneas
iness at the European monetary centers.
Rumors of difficulties at London, Berlin and
Paris were afloat last week, though they
scem to have had but little moro substance
than those circulated in -New Y'ork. Tho
Chronicle is assured that the situation in
London is distinctly bettor than It was a
short ilmo back, though of courso failures
are possible, and almost probable, from time
to tune after a period of decline in prices so
long continued.
Reports from nearly all the monetary and
commercial centers note returning confi

trade in the fall.

In The Airbrake Works Running on

Tho week on the Stock Exchango opened
in a dull and listless manner, indicating tho
absence of all feeling, the market was ab
solutely colorless so far as expression went.
Thero wero only two sales 50 Philadelphia
Gas nt 11 and 10 Pipeage at 8.
Tho bears had tho upper hand, and while
they were unablo to make a material im
pression upon vnlues, they clipped and
pared hero and there, and left the majority
of things on the active list lower than they
found them.
Price changes wero too trifling for special
mention. The light demand for Philadelphia
Gas indicated that the big orders noted last
wcok had been fillod. Central Traction was
wanted in a small way at 16, equal to 18
with tho assessment. The rest of this group
showed no animation whatever.
Luster went off a trifle on unsatisfactory
news trom tho mine. The manufacturers of
tho big mill will send men down to put it in
order. The contract binds them to do this.
Airbrake and Switch and Signal were steady.

BACK TO THE OLD PLACE.
THE STOCK MAKKET RETURNS TO ITS
rORMEK DULL CONDITION.
The Feeling Was Moro Bullish Than for
Some Time Tho Shorts Displayed Con
siderable Nervousness, Which Led to
Efforts to Cover Outstanding Contracts.
New York, Aug. 3. Tho stock market to
day went back almost to its old condition of
dullness and listlcssncss, and the Grangers,
especially Burlington and St. Paul, fur
nished all there was of interest in the trad
ing. Tho foeling among the protessional
operators was more bullish than for some
time, and the shorts displayed considerable
nervousness, which led to efforts to cover
outstanding short contracts earlyin the day,
making a higher opening and somo activity
in the first half hour. The glowing reports
from the West of the excellent condition of
crops and the extraordinary movement of
winter wheat aro having their legitimate ef
fect, and whilo tho leading bears still main
tain apparent confidence in their position
und predict still lower prices forevetythlng,
the evidence goes to show that the deslio to
cover which causod the rally last week is not
yet satisfied. The nature of late transactions
in the stock-market is sufficiently indicated
by the cessation of nil activity when the ef
lorts at depression cease. The dealings to
day, aftor the first spurt of activity due to
tho demand from the shorts left over from
last woek.became utterly devoid of feature or
movement of interest even among the
specialties and low-priced shares which
usually furnish some movement even in the
dullest market. Prices throughout tho day
failed to get more than a fraction from the
opening figures, and absolute stagnation
reigned duiing the afternoon, accompanied
by the most intense dullness. Kaidlng on a
small scale was attempted during the fore
noon on various Items of outside news, but
all failed to do more than kill the animation
in the market and hold prices down
to the level of the opening figures.
In the last hour, however, there was
an attempt to cover the contracts
put out earlier in the day with the result of
making a little more activity and bringing
prices up to a slightly higher figure than dur
ing the first hour. The markofflnally closed
dull and firm, at something better than tho
opening prices. Bulling ton was the one fca
turoof tho day, although St. Paul showed a
little larger 'business, and it was the only
stock which Bhows a material Improvement,
its gain for the day being 1 per cent.
Railroad bonds wore dull, and oxcept for
soino little' animation in the Bichmond nnd
West Point 5s and the Oregon Improvement
B3,prcsented nofeaturoof interest. ThoKich
lnond and West Point Issues were strong,
however, and tho 6s after paying the in
terest, recoveredT per cent, while 5o aro up a
like amount to 5S. The other issues .traded
in were dull and listless as stocks. The trans
actions ot the day foot up only $572,000.
Government bonds have been dull and ir
regular. State bonds have been entirely
neglected.
Tho Post says: Thore was some buying of
silver bullion certificates to-day on the news
of furthershipmonts of tho metal to London.
Something more than 125,000 ounces are to
be sent to-morrow, and.tlieie nre other Lon
don orders In the market. Theso exports,
like those of a week ago, are ordered by the
Rothschilds for the continental act. It Is
noticeable that In the face of these ship
ments tho bullion officially reported on
hand against the stock exchange certificates
has been steadily inci easing. Thero have
boon only two insignificant withdrawals
of bullion from this account in the last
ten days. Yet some people persist in point
ing to this deposit account as the "visible
supply" of silver in Now' York. As a matter
of fact a very large amount of bullion is
stored on simple warehouse receipts in Uie
safe deposit company, nnd It is from this
stock that withdrawals are made. How largo
this supply is nobody knows. It is stored in
the vaults precisely as if it were jewelry or'
gold plate. He who can produce the flgnres
of this stored bullion, nnd nobodr else, will
be in position to talk about the shortage of
New Y ork's supply.
The following table shows the prices of active
stocks on tho New Y'ork Stork Exchange yesterday.

Couimvr Produce (Jobbing prices) Supply
of strictly fresh eggs is light and demand is
ditto. Ohio river eggs are coming in freely,
but quality is not up to standard. Burdetto
once said in a lecture beforo the Pittsburg
Y. M. C. A. that a tolerably good egg was
like a tolerably good man, np good. A dealer
said to-day: "From two to five dozen of the
eggs we have received of late from the Ohio
Valley will not 'bear tho test of candling.
Creamery butter or choice grade Is firm at
quotations, and prospects are lor higher
prices before the week Is out. The same is
true of cheese. In fruit and vegetable lines
there is nothing new to report. The situa

THE MAN WITHOUT A STOMACH
May exist as a museum freatr, but most of us
recognize the stomach at necessary tollfo
ami comfort. Most of us experience allttlo
trouble from this source occasionally, wrong
action of the stomach causing dyspepsia, etc.,
and often the trouble extends, involving tho
liver and bowels w hence we Und biliousness
and constipation. Wo find also that tho
bowelsand kidneys (nature'-sewage system)
bocoine clogged with elfete matter, from
which comes impure blood, boils, blotches,
pimples, scrofula, scrofulous swellings and
cancerous complaints. The Burdock Blood
Bitters taken at thebeginning.orat any later
stage, arrests the trouble, restores the dis
ordered organ to activity, thereby removing
every vestige of disease. B. B. B. is an abso
lutely pure extract of roots and herbs, which
cannot injure even the most delicate consti
tution, and ns a cure for dyspepsia, bilious
ness, constipation, bad blood, etc., succeeds
in 99 cases out of 100. je29-91-TT8osu
