SHORTS WIN AT LAW
Injunction Issued Agalnst
Large- Holders of Oats,
SPECULATORS ARE DISPLEASED

Benefited Say.
CHICAGO. July 81. Judge Chytraus today
modified the Injunction issued yesterday re
straining me unicago Board of Trade and
iioard or Trade operators J. A. Patten. Carrinc
ton. Patten & Co. and Bartlett, Frailer & Co.
irum conuueung a corner in July standard oats,
by restraining the defendants from asking the
presiaent or tne Board of Trade to indorse
aown margins deposited by tho comniain
ants. Walte, Thoburn & Co., to secure 55.000
uuaueis or snort saies. The court held a session
before the opening hour of the Board of Trade,
in order that a decision might be arrived at
oerore Business -was begun. A motion for
dissolution of the case will come up for further
adjudication next week.
Tho effect of the action of the court Is for
wie time to protect the complainants against
any alleged corner, and is construed as -working
against the bull clique of operators on the
board. Argument was brought to bear by at
torneys for the- board and for the defendant
operators, that. Inasmuch as both the com
plainants and tho defendants were members of
a triDunai that adjudicated any controversies
between Its members, the lnlunctinn shmiid
bo dissolved on the ground of want of Juris-
uicnon. 11 was argued that the complainants
were premature in asking for an Injunction
against a corner when no such corner was In
effect, and when the Board of Trade rules spe
cifically prohibit corners.
The defendant members of the Board of
j.raae, in answer to the injunction, denied the
anirmation that July standard cats were worth
not In excess of 35c a bushel, and said they
were worth moro than that price. They also
denied any conspiracy among themselves or
with Joseph Bidwell, grain inspector, to corner
July oats or to forestall the market in that
commodity, or to raise the price of July oats.
They denied that they had given a fictitious
value to tho article, and that they had made
any purchases for delivery since July 1.
It was sett forth that the elevator aeeommo
datlons and railway facilities of Chicago were
such that would allow of the delivery of 15
times the amount of oats bought of "Walte. Tho
burn & Co. by the defendants, and that fre
quently the defendants had bought 10 times as
much as their total purchases in this deliv
er- Following are tho purchases made in July

Attorney J. H. Monroe, for the defendants, in
addressing the court, made sharp allusions to
the complainants having been of a speculative
turn of mind, and eokl something they did not
have alW which they did not have the means
of obtaining for delivery. He said it looked as
if the complainants were trying to make money
by buying In property at a less price than that
for which It had been sold.
Judge Chytraus. before modifying the order,
told the attorneys he did not consider the in
junction restrained tho defendants from bid
ding, buying or selling, or refusing to buy or
tell. July oats in the pit, or from any of their
a-cuetomed business operations, aside from
tho?e In connection with the complainants.
There was practically no effect of the injunc
tion in the oats pit today. The assurance of
Judge Chytraus that ordinary business could
bo done by the defendants and other members
Df the Board of Trade acted as a check against
any violent fluctuations. A notice was posted
on 'change Interpreting the court's action as a
dismissal of the Injunction against the Board
of Trade and stating that all business could
proceed as usual, save in the matter of closing
out deals with Thoburn, White & Co. This
matter was considered in abeyance.
James Patten sent brokers into the pit to sell
indiscriminately, and about 100,000 bushels were
covered early by shorts. This tended to weak
en the price, and July dipped from C5c to 6351c
Speculators on the board were all Inclined to
comment unfavorably upon the appeal to the
court. The big bulls said if such a precedent
were established there would be nothing but
Ehort selling. If prices wont down deliveries
would be made, but if the prices went against
the sellers thero would be nothing to prevent
defaulting on their contracts.
Apparently intimidated by the possibilities of
having to answer to the -court if fictitious prices
were pumped Into July oats, all speculators
allowed the manipulated July options In all
grades to die with a flash in the pan. July
oats were sold freely by the bulls, and many
of the shorts covered, bringing the closing price
lc up, at C4c j
POR.TLAXD MARKETS.
Grain, Flour, Etc.
The local wheat market was duller than usual
yesterday, in sympathy with tho decline in
other markets. Chicago was all torn up over
xno wierrerence or me courts in a gamblers'
quarrel, and Europe was soggy. As usual, it
was easier to ouy wneat on a falling market,
and some of the dealers could have bought it
by the shipload at the prices they were offering
a few days earlier. Quotations were down
orouna uieftac, ana it would require very mod
erate freight rates to make the business at
tractive, even at these prices. The freight
siiuouoa snows out mile change, and cables
rrom Europe were mostly to the effect that
owners wero inclined to wait awhile.

SHORTAGE IX IRON CERTAIN.
Orders Ponrlnjr In Shorr That Con
ins Year Will Be a Lively One.
CLEVELAND. July 3L The Iron Trade Re
view, discussing market conditions In Its cur
rent Issue, says:
July has put a very large tonnage on the
order books of furnaces and mills, and has
aone much to determine the poiltlon of the
market In the first half of 1003. The past week.
while not 60 active In some centers as the
preceding one, has revealed a very general
interest among buyers of foundry Iron in the
possibilities for the first and second quarters
of next year. This Is promoted. In part, by
tho embarrassment of some consumers who
have needed iron for immediate use, and have
not been ablo to get it. Less Is heard about
the deliveries of iron to steelworkers than of
the troubles of foundries, but It v Is already
evident that there will be a great shortage of
hesscmer and basic Iron, particularly the for
mer, contracted for by largo works to be de
livered this year.
Some steel plants are now making smaller
outputs than usual because Iron cannot be had
as needed, and in the Pittsburg district several
finishing plants have bad to suspend because
s'teel could not be had. The prolongation of
shut-downs In July was due to this cause In
several Instances, rather than to urgent ne
cessity of making repairs. The easier feeling
in steel predicted on the July shut-downs was
rather anticipated than based oa actual sales.
Foreign steel has been offered at somewhat
lower prices, but domestic billets are still sold
at $33334 for the small lota that are practically
an tne going business.
vB uu mure iuciuuui. steelmakers
are not likely to rneet the views of buyers
wno are noiaing on ror considerably lower
prices on contract steel. The enormous pro
duction of pig Iron in the first half of the
year 8.808.574 gross tons with unsold stocks
June 30 reduced to 29.801 tons, against 872,560
tons a year previous, gives some measure of a
still growing consumption, and the impression
is heightened by the figures for pig Iron 1m
ports, which have now reached 2000 tons 1
day. Foundries pressed for iron are- taklnr
-email lots 01 ocoicn pig iron at f2&326 deliv
ered In the Central West, and lmporrvlroa
has gone as far West as tho Chicago district.
The Southern furnaces have made Bales for
next year at $17 Birmingham for No. 2, fol
lowing earlier sales at $16 00, and some are
disposed to ask $17 50, and even $18. The
Chicago district reports a largo business, with
prices tending upward for both Southern and
Northern iron.

COLORADO FUEL 31 A KB S A DECLINE
' I -.' '
Dea.Hff In Railroad Show Depart
tcrcsta Plan Money Market. '
NEW YORK. July 31. There was such a
turmcil at tho opening of the stock market
today as to upset the spcculatve sentiment
and dlrappolnt the hopes of a renewal of a
consistent upward movement of prices which
had been indulged as a result of yesterday's
development of "fresh railroad deals. Probably
the feverish, upward dash of St. Louis & San
"Francisco, Evansville & Terre Haute. New
Tork Air Brake and a few other stocks would
have been sufficient In themselves to have dis
turbed sentiment. But when there was added
tho "Sown ward plunge of over 8 points In Colo
rado Fuel and a .sharp decline In People's Gas,
the upward course of prices with which the
market opened quickly gave place to realizing.
St. Paul's rise of over a point was lost In a
few minutes of trading. St. Louis & San
Francisco sagged back to below last night dur
ing the course of the forenoon. A few scattered
advances at different times during the day
proved Ineffectual to rouse the market to activ
ity. Chicago & Alton and Chicago Terminal
Transfer advanced in company on mysterious
hints of coming Important developments. The
rise In Reading seemed to "be based oa the as
sumption that the rioting In the mine region
and the calling out of tho troops foreshadowed
tho break-up of tho strike. The decrease In
Colorado Fuel was attributed to the fact that
the company's books close today for the stock
hblders meeting, so that new purchases would
pot carry voting power for the meeting.
The quick subsidence of tho excitement which
broke out In the market yesterday when St.
Louis & San Francisco and Chicago & Eastern
Illinois were reported to have consolidated was
primarily due to the uncertainty over the actual
fact. All persons interested wero exceedingly
reticent, and doubts were aroused as to the
real consummation of tho project. Further
more, supposing the project to be achieved.
there will bo disappointments Inrolved. It Is
a matter of public notoriety that Illinois Central
has recently made afi offer designed to sccura
control of Chicago & Eastern Illinois. The ad
vance la St. Louis & San Francisco for the
past week has been on the assumption that it
was "the Important system" pointed at as
destined for Inclusion in tho new Rock Island
company. The fact that the new project points
to strengthened competition, and is thus calcu
lated to arouse antagonisms, makes It similar
to many of the recent projects talked of, and
marks their departure from the much-discussed
community of interest policy, which was to
parcel out harmoniously the whole railroad ter
ritory amongst the various financial powers.
The money market was calm today, but ster
ling exchange held steady at the level of the
recent gold exports. The Government deficit.
which reached over $12,000,000 at one time this
month, fell to below $8,000,000 today, and the
Subtrcasury In New York received a payment
of over $1,000,000 by tho Central Paciijc Rail
road Company on account of a note due the
Government. The markets closed quite active
and weak, prices running off sharply just at the
lost.
Bonds wero very Irregular, and Inclined to
be easier In the morning. Tho St. Louis South
western seconds were in large demand. Total
sales, par value, $2,103,000. United States
bonds were unchanged on the last call. .

CAUSE OP SLUMP IN COLORADO.
Harris-Gates Man Holds an Attempt
Was Made to Break the Market.
NEW YORK, July 3L In sales exceeding 25,-
ouo shares Colorado Fuel & Iron today regis
tered a maximum loss of 8 points, selling down
to 0214 and closing at 04, a net decline of Cf;
points. The break in the stock was one of the
early features of the day. It was accompanied
by rumors that the faction which was seeking
control , of the company had given up the at
tempt, and had sold out. A member of the
Harris-Gates side was quotftd as saying that
tho decline waa due to the opposing party
Having attempted to "break the market." The
Gates Interest, It was declared, took all the
stock offered, which brought about a partial
rally. Further excitement was created by the
announcement that the Interests now la con
trol had applied to the stock exchange to list
3,000.000 additional convertible debentures.
which would make a total of $13,000,000 of the
$15,000,000 authorized Issue. This gave rise to
the question of whether these bonds were at
onco convertlble-to stock a question of para
mount Importance because of the approaching
annual meeting. Stock exchange officials took
no action in the matter, opinions on this point
being too conflicting. Denver representatives
of the Colorado Fuel Company were reported
to have declared that the bonds are to be con'
verted Into stock; while an opinion directly
opposite to this was taken by the company's
New York lawyers. Dealings In convertible 0s
were also quite extensive. The bonds opened at
104, sold off H point, and closed at 103.

JULY CORNERS NO MORE
GRAIN DEALS DIE IN THE ARMS OF
THEIR PROJECTORS.
An Injnnction Sccarcd by Shorts
Against Big; Balls Largely Re
sponsible for the Step.
CHICAGO; July 81. July corners were snuffed
out today. Quietly, and with little excitement,
save that lnAenced by the injunction against
a corner Inuly standard oats, the manipu
lated deals died in the arms of their projectors.
July wheat cut the most spectacular figure by
slumping almost 6c The July corn flitted into
history with the closing price 21c lower than
tho high price exacted when the Gates' clique
was In control. July oats, although controlled
absolutely by the Patten-Fra2ler crowd, closed
uneventfully, doubtlessly held down by the
fear of dread possibilities at the hands of the
court when the injunction casa comes to be set
tled. "With manipulation largely out of the
way, and the Inflation In prices rapidly seeping
out, other options In grains felt the very bear
ish effect of big shipments, lower cables, fine
weather and heavy sales, and consistently de
clined all around.
Interest centered In oats because of the In
junction proceedings against Patten. Bartlett
& Frazier and Carrington. Patten & Co. Trade
hung fire tor a time at tha start, for the case
was up In court. A little covering was done
early, which started prices up somewhat. When
the court interpreted the Injunction for the
parties Interested, and stated that only one
house was Interested, a house short 55.000
bushels of July, and that with the exception of
-deals with this house all business could go on
as usual on 'change, prices sagged. Patten
sold freely In the pit to any one who wanted
the stuff at 65c lc over yesterday. About 100,
000 bushels were covered early. Then rather
heavy liquidation set In all around. The gen
eral feeling among speculators was that had
there not been an Injunction In effect against
one firm, prices probably would have been
boosted, and the July corner would have gone
out with a boom.
For the first time today. It was learned that
the bull Interest controlled 1.867.000 bushels.
bought below 40c. Of this long line. It is est!
mated, over 1.250.000 bushels were disposed of
hy the bulls In the open pit. Most 01 tne traa
Ing' yas In new. round lots changing hands at
61c. one of '05.000 bushels and another of 200.
000 bushels. Fair deliveries were made as the
prico In oats declined, but a largo number of
contracts defaulted. Details of these will not
be known for some time. July, after opening
lc up. at 64c, sold at 65c dipped to 63?ic. and
closed lc up. at 64;c. September sold from
Z2e down to 3lc and closed 543c lower.
at 31lc
A break of 6c In July wheat was the feature
of the leading pit today. Trade was dull at
times, and prices were Inclined to be erratic
Covering and tho effect of big exports yester
day started prices higher. Deliveries of 500.000
bushels in July, however, with heavy selling In
all deferred options, brought Na break. July
opened c down to c up. at 75$76c. hung fire
for somo time, and then plunged in a panicny
fashion to 69Uc Few tradera wanted the July
article, although there was a fair cash demand.
September opened 3c up, at .usoc,
broke to 60c. and closed weak. Zi'Slc down,
at eOHSSOHc
Excellent crop news big receipts ana nne
weather influenced a marked Increase in the
September-December spread, December belling
lc below September. The feeling In wheat, as
elsewhere, was that with manipulation out of
the war Inflation must come out or prices in
all options. July closed 5Sc down, at euic.
There was heavy selling In corn, very nine
euonort arrived, and prices broke. From uoc.
the price of July corn on July 8, when con
trolled by the bull crowd, tho price has de
clined until today, when It closed at 56c There
was a fair strength to all options early on the
small receipts only 82 cars. Selling In faep
irmhfr however, was heavy. Induced by bear
ish reports of excellent crops and good weather.
In spite of .only 65 cars estimated for tomor
row. September sold from 56-c down to 51ic
