NEW TORK, June 8. The combination move mentbear and bull movement In stocks which ts an annual feature at some period of the growing, crop made Its appearance today. The wheat market advanced In an excited way, on an Increasing volume of rumors of disasters to Spring wheat in the Northwest, Wall street had similar advices, and apparently the con viction that serious harm has already been done to the Spring wheat gained force steadily during the. day. There is growing uneasiness as well over the rate situation among railroads west of Chicago. The fact that the late break In the prices of Western railroad shares was coincident with tht deliberations of the com mittee appointed by the presidents of. West ern railroads to concoct a plan for a division of traffic gave force to the supposition that the prospect for a satisfactory settlement Is not very good. Falling In such a settlement, there Is said to be a likelihood of a widespread and costly rate war. Coming in connection with the bad reports from the wheat country, this served to ef fectually break the market, and prices went to pieces In the last half hour of trading, the weakness spreading from the grangers. Pa cifies and Southwesterns into the trunk lines And specialties, and embracing the whole list. This break came after a day of persistent dull ness and irregular fluctuations in prices. The incident immediately preceding the break was an advance of over a point In Heading first preferred, with confident absorption of very large offerings. The second preferred was all wiped out In the final-break. -As Increase -In FINANCIAL NEWS the earnings of Northern Pacific of 28 per cent for the fourth week in May did not avail to save that stock from the break on the unfavorable crop prospects, and It fell 2 points. Missouri Pacific and Baltimore & Ohio showed some weakness before the general break on fears of disappointment regarding dividends. There was a relaxation of the pressure on foreign markets, due to apprehension over the trouble in China, and London bought stocks here to a moderate extent, causing acme align: gains early in the day. The preliminary esti mates of the bank statement figure out a small low In cash, owing to the week's heavy absorp tion by the Subtreasury. which amounted to $3,117,000, all on account of the- call by the Treasury of Government deposits In the banks. The estimates of receipts from the Interior aro slightly in excess of those made last Friday, but it will be remembered that last Friday's estimates fell short by $1,500,000 of the actual receipts, so that a gain In cash In tomorrow's statement would not be surprising. The mar ket closed active and weak at about the lowest. The bond market was, very dull, and price changes were remarkably small. Total sales, $1.1!mj,O00. United States bonds were un changed. BONDS.

Monetary Troubles May Appear la the German Banlcri. NEW TORK. June 8. The Herald, discuss ing the financial panic in Berlin, says: To the best-Informed men In local financial circles It would not be surprising If any mon etary difficulties should arise In Europe at the present time that they should originate In the German capital. For three years, or ever since the passage of the Bourse law, seeking to regu late speculation and prohibiting dealing In futures. It has been pointed out that unusutl burdens have been thrown upon the German banks, greatly straining their resources, and calling forth many notes of warning, not only from foreign bankers, but also from the Mlnlf ter of Finance. The wave of Industrial combination that sprang up In England and developed so enor mously here was communicated to Berlin also. CULLISON&CO.

July wheat opened at 71 (8?l4c a flat Jump from yesterday's close of m'S'lU Then began a trade which in ex citement and olume exceeded events when traders' were referring to the days of the Letter deal for comparisons The advance was occasioned by the fact that the Northwest was still without rain. Realizing sales were heavy, however, and July following the opening de clined to 70c Then the pressure Of buying orders, bunches of which every man In the pit seemed to have In the greatest plenty, came to the aid of the market, and July shot up to 71c Lots which during the recent dullness would have caused a break In prices wese ab sorbed without a tremor. At this point the weather bureau announcement, of Indications of showers for the Northwest Saturday caused some cessation In the buying, and the takers of profits forced July gradually back to 703c. The dip. however, merely gave the buyers a breathing spell, for at the price Just quoted they Jumped Into the pit with renewed vigor. Northwest interests bought enormous quan tities, as did influential locals. Some who went short early upon the theory that the ad vance of yesterday would. In the natural course of things, be followed by a reaction, covered, thus aiding In the advance. The trading during the last hour was ery heavy. July climbed up to 72ic, and closed 2ic Improved, at 72vi 72c. Cables were strong". The Sprlng-'heati territory reported the crop situation becoming' more critical. High winds and sand, it was s&ld. did further damage to the North Dakota crop. Throughout the entire session the North west bought persistently and heavily. Nat urally, there was a great deal of liquidation, but the small part the Northwest took in this was notable -and a factor in the "purt which came when the session came to a close. Corn was dull and easy during the first of the advance In wheat, but became active later The pit had been deserted in favor of wheat until some buying orders brought out tho fact that thero was little for sale. In a few min utes July went up over a cent a bushel, and. once started, the shorts were not to be denied. July sold between 3SSc and 40V&C, closing 1WJ lc up, at 4034014c. Oats, like corn, lagged early, but later braced up, and closed strong. Trade was light, July closed Vic better, at 22c The provision market was firm,' In sympathy with wheat and corn.

Speculative Interests "Were Big Buy ers on Crop-Damase Reports. NEW YORK. June 8. Another sensational advance took place In wheat today, prices ad vancing 22Hc per bushel, making over 5c In the last three days. The outside speculative Interests were big buyers of wheat on crop damage news In the Northwest, and the profes slonal operators, while trying several time during the day to undermine prices, met their matches, and were obligee to retreat in the last hour when the highest prices of the session were attained. Crop - damage reports from Spring-wheat states are undoubtedly very bull ish, but there Is some question as to whether the advance has not been too rapid under the circumstances. July wheat went up from 75Hs early In the day to 77c In the afternoon, clos ing at 774c Foreign houses also proved good buyers of the staple, and general sentiment was strongly In favor of higher prices, should rain be withheld much longer from the Spring wheat belt.

EXCURSl Steamship Co. STEEL 'STEAMSHIP' - evening1. In h!s letter General Schwan. who served as General Otis' chief of staff in the administrative department at Ma nila, and- who is In a position to speak Intelligently of conditions there, declared that the one hope of the Insugents lay "In the possibility of victory for the Dem ocratic 07 anti-expansion party in the coming Presidential campaign." and that 'the -major portion of the Filipinos are satisfied, with American rule. This opin ion is borne out In part by the published statements credited to Agulnaldo, the insurgent chief. In. which he reposes his "hope -for the future- in the triumph of Bryanlsm. It Is galline to patriotic man hood to be confronted with proof that the enemies" of our country and the slayers of our soldiers trust a contingent of our own people to "help them triumph, but the anti-Imperialist is Impervious to any such feelings or national shame. MUST . Sreech by Telephone. Senator Chauncey M. Dopew recently made, an af ter-dinner.speech in his library Jn "Washington to the Transportation Club at -the Hotel Manhattan, la New York. It was heard by telephone, receivers being placed In front of the guests at the ban quet, over which the Senator, president of the club, was supposed to preside. As the 147 guests could not all be accom modated with receivers at the same time, Mr. Depew repeated his speech, ao that all heard it. ' So well were the connections made that every word that came over the 230 miles of wlrcjvas heard distinctly. Senator Depew.'who is president of the club, had been expected from Washing ton, .to deliver the annual address, but t, $he last moment he was delayed bj urgent business of one of the committees, so, that be co.uld not reach New York ,ln ,lro.e. It was decided to have him address the .assemblage by wire, and the t'e!UhQne company was requested to make the necessary arrangements. Within Ave i'hQurs the wires for the 0 receivers had peen laid and the connections established, a.'worlc "which usually takes fodr days to accoriiplish.' In view of this fact it was coflp!dred ifemarkable that there was no hitch" la the proceedings, and that every "wtfrd'the Senator spoke could be heard distinctly 'by every one who had an ear to one of the receivers.
