IS Buying "Was Vigorous, XotTrltaBtand Ing the Government and Forelgra Reports Corn Market. CHICAGO, Aug. 12. A revival of bull confi dence and fear on the part of the bears put through a heavy business In wheat. 'The gen eral Impression prevailed that the end of the bear campaign had set 1n yesterday, and, trangely enough, the low prices of this cam paign had come before the- Government report. Usually a Government report Is followed by depression. The case was different today. Whereas the estimate of a Spring and "Winter wheat crop of about 750.000,000 bushels bad gained credence, the Government suggested only 020,000,000 bushels. Foreign markets gave the report a bullish interpretation and sent higher quotations, and tho Northwest had lighter receipts. Prjmary receipts were heavy, the weather was good and ordinary conditions wer bearish as before the receipt of the report Coarse grains, however, also had an upturn. Soiling was almost nothing, and buying for the support of September was so vigorous that ehorts bid prices up hurriedly. New York and SL Louis were in the market heavily on the buying side, and there, was a good commission demand all day. There were several lapses from high pricos on the advance, but the close was near top figures. Grading shows but lit tle improvement, and the local contract stocks are fast disappearing. September opened VeQ ic to UCSc higher, at C7C7. sold to COftc, and closed strong, lle higher, at 00c. Com showed much strength, partly because the Government report showed 1 per cent re duction since July 1, but principally on heavy covering by & great many shorts, who secured Landsome profits. The market was influenced by frosts, very small receipts, and the strength la wheat. September sold as low as 5014c, and jumped to B2Hc closing strong. lc up, at C214e. Receipts were -only C2 cars. There was not influential buying in oats, but prices responded quickly to the bullish senti ment in the other pits. September closed Arm, llc up, ct 3030c Receipts were 542 cars. Provisions were irregular. The demand was not heavy, but buying orders came in suffi cient quantities to put good strength in tho market. Several reactions occurred, but tho Brain strength held the price up. September pork closed 30o up, lard unchanged and ribs 22 He up. The leading futures ranged as follows: WHEAT. Onenlnir. niehwti.

Aug. 12.-The Weather Bu reau s weekly summary of crop conditions says: Some Injury was caused by excessive heat in Kansas and Oklahoma in the early part of the week. On the Pacific Coast tho weather was hot and dry. while conditions wero favor able for harvesting, yet detrimental to grow ing crops in Washington and Oregon. The corn crop experienced another favorablo week, and the outlook in the principal corn states continues very promising. The threshing of Winter wheat Is much be lated in the lake region and tho northern por tions of the Middle Atlantic States. Harvest ing continues In the Northern Pacific Coast region, with a disappointing yield In north portions of Oregon. The Spring wheat harvest Is nearlng completion In the southern portion of the Spring wheat'region. and Is advancing rapidly in the central and northern portions A considerable part of the crop In tho Red River Valley is still very green and is ripenin unevenly, r The oats harvest is now practically finished and while a generally heavy crop has been se cured, the quality In many sections is poor, after being in 6hock, as a result of injury br rains. The progress of tho cotton crop as a wholo continues favorable. Tho general outlook for apples continues un favorable except In Oklahoma, Kansas, Nebras ka. Michigan and New England, while by re ports from New Tork very light crop Is gen craly indicated. Sew York Grain and Produce. NEW TORK, Aug.

EXCHANGE AT PREMIUM CURRENCY MOVE3IENT STILL IN FA VOR OF NEW YORK. Increased Export Demand for Grain Keeps the Market Firm Effect ot Monthly Crop Report. NEW TORK. Aug. 12. The dominating factors In the stock market continue to be tho coming crops and tho money" outlook. Crop news was exceedingly satisfactory today, both that of the monthly report of the Agricultural Department and the later current news of the Weather Bureau; but It Is to be borne In mind that the speculation for some time past has been diligently discountenancing good crops, which have been clearly foreshadowed. On the other hand, the Autumn acUvlty In the money market, while It has been expected ami made tho subject of industrious warnings, has beon ignored In speculation. This week's rise in money rates, therefore, would naturally be of most effect on speculative conditions. Buy ers, in anticipation of good crops, seeing the danger of a flurry in the money market, which might force liquidation of stocks, and attracted by the high level to which prices have attained, aro tempted to sell to realize their profits. There was considerable strength at one time today, and In a few cases it continued to the close, but for the most part the early rise in prices was taken advantage of to realize profits, and tho general level of prices ended lower than last night. Thero was a further contraction also In the volume of dealings, which dropped bock again below 500.000 shares. Unofficial estimates on today's Government re ports Indicate a wheat harvest of over G52.0CO. 000 bushels. This Is nearly 100.000.000 bush els below the crop of lost year, but has never been exceeded except tho crop of 1S0S. As for tho com crop, today's Government figures indicate a yield the largest in the his tory of the country. This had its effect among the Southwestern grangers, especially among tho Gould group. Another striking show ot strength was made by Baltimore & Ohio. Among the returns of the railroad's gross earn ings for tho first week of August Chesapeake & Ohio shows a decrease of $103,503. compared with last year, and Missouri Pacific earnings for the same period declined $23,000. The two groups of railroads In which the strongest stocks are, wero thus handicapped by this un favorable Influence. As for the money market, the rate for call loans averaged more nearly 4 per cent than the 3 per cent, which was tho maximum today. Time loans and commercial paper showed a hardening tendency as well, five and six months loans on good mixed Stock Exchange collateral ruling at 6 per cent The rise In money rates, however, had a perceptible effect upon foreign exchange rates, which receded a fraction, and tentative plans for further ship ments of gold this week were abandoned. Tho currency movement seems to be still In favor of New Tork. Exchange at Chicago remained at a premium of 20c today. Another develop ment was an increased export demand for grain, which held the market firm. In spite ot the crop report, and made some exchange. Tho United States Treasury operations are also showing a continued deficit, the excess of expenditures for this month exceeding $1,500, 000. while for the samo period last year re ceipts were more than $000,000 in excess of expenditures. This affords somo relief to the money market, but the beginning of the In terior demand for currency Is awaited, never theless with anxiety. Tho bond market was dull, and the Central of Georgia incomes weak. Total sales, par value, $1,550,000. United States bonds wero all unchanged on tho last call. Closing Stock Quotations. STOCKS. F,.
