THE, MOBNIXG OBEGOKIAjS, SATURDAY, JULY 26, 1902. 13 0AT8IA0YE UP AGAIN July Brings the Highest Price Since Civil War. SHORTS GET A, BAD SCARE Tliclr Bids Bring Cereal Up to 72c, lint StreagrtU Is Only Temporary and the Closing Is Lower "Wheat Goes Down. CHICAGO. July 25. Traders behold the spec tacle today of oats selling higher than both wheatVind oorri, and yet tho phenomenon caused hardly a ripple In "the dull and uninteresting business routine. July new oats sold at 72c when a few shorts wanted the stuff. Cash oats were absorbed by the bull leaders at as high as 71c in order to keep them from the shorts. While oats were selling in small lots at these fancy prices, September wheat was around 71c. and the hitherto fancy July corn at something under 07c, In general, however, it may be said the July corners were resting. Shorts In -wheat, corn and oats in that month seemed penned in by the big Interests. The other markets were doing little because of fair weath. cr, good crop reports and other bearish in fluences, which. In turn, however, had little effect, because of the fears of July manipula tion. In tho end, September wheat closed 4Sxtc down; September corn, c lower; July corn, l&c lower; September oati, c lower, and July oats c higher. Provisions were very irregular, and closed 12c Aip, to 17Hc lower. Wheat worked lower on the Influence of low er cables, good weather and a dull trade. Crop advices continued favorable, and receipts bore out the reports as to quantity, although grad ing was very poor, as of late. The foreign market weakness, together with the excellent crop reports, seemed to undermine the con fidence of holders. Tho strike of telegraph messengers, which spread to the floor of the exchange, interfered with business, and had its modicum of bearish influence. July showed ltcclf very sensitive to any supply or demand, and shorts, as usual, were very nervous. The price hung around 77c, and closed c down, at 7Cic September was offered rather freely. Opening Hhic to a. shade lower, at 7272J&c that option dipped to 71c, and closed weak, Hc lower, at 71ic Corn -was even moro dull than .-wheat. The trade in July was small, and prices held close tp C7c until shortly before the close, when they broke, and closed weak, at 65c September closed weak. c lower, at GOHc There was a feeling that July was simply slumbering before it burst forth. Into a volcano-like eruption. Oats were lower in the doferred options In sympathy with other grains and unfavorable weather. July shorts who did not settle yes terday were frightened by tho rumor that be cause they would not settle at 70c, the price was to be pushed etlll higher. In consequeaco of their bids for several "fives." July new sold at 72c, tho record price since the Civil War. This was the only feature. Trade otherwise was dull, offerings in the new deliveries were freer, and prices dipped. After the early ad vance. July dipped back and closed only He up. at 7(N6c. September closed weak, V4c fli-A-n. at 84124J4c The leading futures ranged as follows: WHEAT. Opening. Highest. Lowest.

Bulls Use This Argument to Advance Railway Stocks General Mar ket Closes Weak. NEW YORK. July 23. Violent price move-' ments and heavy dealings In some of the pres ent high-priced stocks wero the characteristics of today's stock market. There was large real izing at intervals, both In the stocks which moved upward today, and In others which pre viously advanced. The Industrials and the low prlced railroads played only a smalt part in the market, tho high-priced standard stock trav ersing all portions of the country, being in the van of all the day's movements. The grangers, the Pacifies, the Southern tnink lines and tht Eastern trunk lines all had their turn in the day's activity. The bulls had the advantage of continuing satisfactory conditions of the crops, qf industrial activity and of the money market, but the effective factors In the day's dealings were rumors of great financial opera tions looking to the harmonizing and consoli dation of the control of the great railway sys tems of the country. All of these were more or less vague, and none of them was accorded open or official sanction. That regarding Rock Island was the most clearly defined, and it was noticeable that that stock, with something like exploit information to go upon, fell out of the forefront of the trading, and failed to maintain all of yesterday's advance. There was author ltatlvo intimation also that another large rail road system is to be absorbed, the prevailing belief pointing to St. Louis & San Francisco. Assertions that Atchison was to be taken over were effectively denied. Rumors continued thick concerning St. Paul, the one assigning it to the Union Pacific being most persistent, but without any authentic countenance. An incident of the day was a fierce raid on Western Union, which forced it down over 3 points by -polnt drops. The stock closed at a rally of a point. There Is promise of a gain In cash reserves of over $1,000,000 by the banks tomorrow. In spite of the week's exports of gold, the receipts on balances from the In terior, aad the excess of disbursements by the Subtreasury having more than offset the ex ports. Tho Item of loans, however, is beyond power of computation. The market closed very weak, but with a few stocks at the top. Bond's were firm today. Total sales, $2,915,000. United States new 4s, registered, advanced 4 on tho last call. Closing Stock Quotations. t aj m -, n 2. o 5" " i Zz.

London FIeld Last week, while near the poultry run, a hen, after feeding, flew up Into a pine tree, and on going to see where she was I could not see her, but on one of the men climbing up he saw her sitting on a heap of pine needles which had lodged in a fork. On lifting her up there were 14 eggs In the nest. The nest was 10. feet from the ground. The hen was a cross-bred. Do net purge or weaken the bowels, but act specially on the liver and bile.

Rail-way Earnings Continue to In creaseGold Is Exported, bat Money Rules Easy. NEW YORK, July 25. R. G. Dun & Cc's weekly review of trade tomorrow will say: Each, day brings the agricultural products of the Nation nearer maturity, and as the possi bility of any serious Injury becomes smaller, the feeling- of confidence In fully-sustained trade grows stronger. Railway stocks rose to a new high-record price, and gold was export ed, yet money ruled easy. July oats succeeded corn as the leading speculative cereal,, but all distant grain options tended there as the out look lmpr-ed. Tho. heavy distribution of merchandise Is shqwn by railway earnings, which thus far reported for July are 23 per cent larger than last year, and 20 per cent In excess of the cor responding period of 1900. Insufficient fuel is the one serious difficulty in the Iron and steel Industry. Footwear factories have returned to almost full operation, contracts coming forward freely from wholesalers at the large centers. There was less activity In the speculative markets for the leading cereals, yet prices wero fairly well maintained. Meats were somewhat weaker on larse re ceipts and smaller export buying. Among the other staples, coffee continues active and firm. despite the statistical situation. Failures for the week numbered 209 In the United States, against 19S last year, and 17 In Canada, against 2S last year. BANK CLEARINGS SHOW GAIN. Conditions in Financial World Were Never More Promising. NEW YORK. July 25. Bradstreet's tomor row will say: Crop conditions have further Improved, and the confidence In Fall trado shows no diminu tion, but rather an Increase. Thebest ad vices come from the Northwest and Southwest. Fall trade in dry goods promises to be late. A further Improvement, however. Is noticed In shoes and leather, and wool Is again higher In price, despite manufacturers holding back buy ing. Among the Industries, iron and steel are easily first In activity, and relief from the so called pig Iron famine Is sought In freer Im portations. Tho fruit season Is how In full swing, and sugar consumption Is at Its full, and promises to be very heavy. Anthracite coal has reached the pinnacle, and the product Is still high, despite flattering crop prospects. Range cattle and Texas hides have surpassed all records. Coffee drags painfully, owing to existing largo stocks and good Brazil crop conditions. A In dicative of the activity of widespread direc tions, It Is noted by Western hardware men that there was no dull season this year. Railroad earnings show gains of over 5 per cent so far for July, and bank clearings have begun to show the gains earlier predicted over last year's totals, reduced as they were by hot weather and drouth effects, on speculation. Crop reports to Bradstreet's are especially good from the Southwest, where corn and cot ton have been favored by good growing weath er. Wheat, including flour, exports for tin week ending July 24 aggregate 3.9S0.9C9 bush els, against 3.775.222 bushels last week, and 3,074.256 In this week last year. Wheat exports since July 1 aggregate 13.765.306 bushels, against 18,377.637 bushels last season. Business failures for the week ending July 24 number 178 as against 174 last week, 199 In this week last year, 183 In 1900. 170 In 1899. and ISO In 169S. For this week, Canadian fail ures number 16. as against 17 last week, and 32 for tho same week last year. Dank Clearing. NEW YORK. July 25.

The change of ownership In the New York Observer has Inspired the secular press to ventilate Its views concerning the re ligious weeklies of the day. That these religious papers do not appear dally, but weekly. Is welcome to very many read ers who are willing to have the news more reliable by waiting a few days for af firmation. There are also readers who are willing to have a selected mass of news, In fine Instead of a hotel table of food for all tastes, a homo table of what cults their tastes. Besides, there I3 some thing besides news these readers need They demand treatmentof events 1 rpm the point of view of what they regard New Testament in character. They demand editorial and contributed matter that they think will be suitable to the Lord's day, for these religious papers are kept until Sunday for a leisurely reading. OS course. It may be said we have our great Sun day papers, but these readers are not willing that such papers should monop olize all the supply to mind and heart on Sundays. Better than any paper rcllgloua or secular Is that oldest and newsiest book of time men call the Bible. Which paper reflects the spirit of that book the more fully, the secular or the re ligious? True, there haVe teen great changes in the evolution of the religious paper as of the secular. Some religious papers, like some secular papers, have consolidated and even have gone out of filght. I used to read the Cincinnati Ga zette with great Interest, but thero is now no such paper. The circulation of religious papers as a whole is surprising ly large. Such circulation Is not a de sire to let go tho great secular journals, but to supplement them. In England the Christian World Is a rival of the Times, and in the United States tho Ccngrega tlonalist, the Interior, the Churchman, the Sunday School Tlme3, the Christian En deavor "World, the Christian Advocate and the Epworth Herald are powerful in influence and In number of. subscrib ers. Tho Baptistshave a great, denom inational paper worthy of a great church. There are two religious papers In the United States' that each has a llat of over 100,000 subscribers. We all have our Oregonlans to read If we have to go without something to eat, but we are glad that there aro brave religious sheets on the Pacific Coast doing a work that can notbe left undone. B. J. HOADLEY. Let 'Em Alone. Brooklyn Eagle. Those newspapers which aro never wrong, but from which mankind will at times perversely differ, are not finding It easy to reconcile public praise of Lord Salisbury and public confidence in Mr. Balfour with the unkind refusal of both of those statesmen to conduct the gov ernment of Great Britain according to the views of the Journals In question. In trying to account for Lord Salisbury's success, they say he was so wide In for eign affairs that his success there con doned hlsTallures In domestic legislation. In seeking to form a prognosis of Mr. Balfour's policy, they assume that the resignation of Sir Michael Hicks-Beach, as Chancellor of the Exchequer, proves that the new Premier has thrown himself Into the arms of Mr. Chamberlain, and that that signifies a quasl-protectlon pol icy between Great Britain and her colon ial dependencies as well as several other things, which Englishmen apparently de sire, but to which some American news papers, whose foible ia lnfallllblllty and whose forte is omniscience, are Inflexibly opposed. It may be Just as well, however, to let Englishmen conduct their own govern ment If they will permit the editors of the papera in question to manage their own plants.
