Notwithstanding there were only two buyers
In attendance. C. F. Green, representing J.

tically the same range of prices that pre

With the exception of a few straggling clips.
which will be disposed of at private sale
on arrival, this doses the wool trading In
Eastern Oregon for the season. Universal
F&tlsfacileR is expressed oyer the suocens of
the sealed bW system. The oniy unhappy
sheepman Is the grower who was Induced to
contrast his eHp In advance of the scheduled
sales day. and he Is silent, because he dis
likes to confess that he lost, by so doing, from
3 to 5 cents per pcund. err frcm 35 to 50
cents per fleeoe.
Simultaneously -with the clewing of the
woot-setltHg from this section the last train
load of sheep contracted for Eastern ship
ment went out today, making an aggregate
for the season's shipments of about 350
cars, or at least 125,000 head, chiefly year
lings; with the sheep bringing an average
price ef $2 per head and the 4,000.000 pounds
of wool marketed at this place at an aver
age of 26 cents, the sheep farmers of this
eectiea will realize over 51.000.000 for this
year's harvest.
Boston Wool Quiet but Strong.
BOSTON. Jane 26. A quieter tone prevails
in the wool market, but prices are as arm as
ever. Many of the sew wools are at hand,
and higher auotatiens are not unexpected
Dealers generally expect that the present
high prices will be sustained for x consld
embte period. New territory wools have 'sold
with same freedom, while the price for cross
bred has declined. The oM pulled -n-eote
have been practically all sold. Foreign wools

NEW YORK. June 26. More stocks were
sold' la the two hours before- noon today
than during the full session of yesterday. In
the afternoon there was a contract len In the
rate of activity, bat the sales for the day
rose to a larger total than for any days since
J early last week. The market obviously was
f till largely in professional hands, but the
traders operated mere freely, and there were
Indications ef the re-entry into the market
of Tomf ef" the larger semi-professional sprea
lators who Have retrained froen activity for
om l!m past.
The buying rcfrreraent was larrrXy cf an x
pcrimcntal character. The market has given
dear eridca fcr several days cf a hard
undertone. The -volume cf offerings has beea
almost nothing and no liquidation was la
duced by aa proffsiloaal pressure. The as
sertion is made and evidently credited among
the professional operators that the holdings of
stocks br eeamln loa-houscs at this time are
at an nnususlly low ebb. asd that weakly
margined baldlags have been almost com
pletely cleared, up. The techalcal strength of
such a position makes ths market invulner
able to ordinary attack.
Realizing la Reading was manifest today.
and this fact was a pal7able check te the
operatloas for the advance. Some general
effect on sentiment was produced also by the
realizing la the Japanese beads, as these
have beea the real leaders of lb rmall specu-
latlon for com time past. Published reports
of the undiminished activity of steel mills
In the Plttaburr district gave the Impulse to
the rise In United States Steel preferred. Sat
isfaction was professed over the better un
drstaadlag reported between France and Ger
many, but foreigners were' sellers of stocks
to a small extent In this market. Foreign
money markets, however, eased off apd the
result was the reappearance of bankers ex
change bills in the local market Incident to
the process of lending foreign funds here. The
day's rise ta price was very well main
tained through the dullness of the later mar
ket. Beads were irregular. Total rales, par

Report Further Strengthens
Market at Chicago.
MAY BE A HEAVY IMPORTER
Advance in Prices Aided by- Unfavor
able "Weather 'Reports " From
Many Sections of the Mid
, die 'AVcst Wheat Belt.
CHICAGO. June 20. With the exception of
a slightly easier tone at the opening, the
wheat market was strong the entire session.
A decline at Liverpool created some- dlsposl
tlea here to sell at the start. As a result.
July was off a shade to at S7,3
STric Ccmralsaien-houses. however, soon be
came active bidders. As a result sentiment
quickly changed to bullishness, offerings be
ing light after the moderate selling pressure
at the opening- The advance started with a
report that yields of wheat In Southern Illi
nois would be small. Advices were received
claiming that T&eavy rains In Kansas aad
Oklahoma had done much damage. Rain was
reported througcout the Red River Valley In
South Dakota. Allegations of damage by
rust, chiefly In Minnesota, were .renewed.
The weekly report of the Weather Bureau,
however, claimed that Spring wheat was
making favorable progress, and that har
vesting of v Fall-sown wheat was rapidly ad
vancing northward. Bearish advices, however.
were practically Ignored.
Late In the s era ton the market was given
additional strength by an - estimate on the
wheat crop of France. According to an Eng
lish expert, the total yield will be about 2SS,-
COO.000 bushels. These figures suggested the
probability that France would, have to Im
port from America- 50.00.000 to 60.OW.000
bushels. During the last hour of trading
shorts were extremely active bidders, but the
demand continued to meet with meager offer
ings. For July the hlrhest point ef the day
was reached at S0Hi?fI-,c. The market closed
at the top. final quotations on July being up
llUc at &Hc
Sentiment la the corn pit was decidedly
bullish. July dosed at the highest point of
the day. lic higher, at C4Hc
Strength of -wheat and corn had a bullish
effect on oats. July closed jo higher at 31c
Provisions were easier en extremely liberal
receipts of hogs. September perk closed off

SUMMER. iVEATHER HAS DE
CIDED EFFECT UPON TRADE.
Prices Also Depressed by Larger
Russian Shipments Require
ments of Next Quarter.
The grain situation in Europe Is reported by
the London correspondent of the Northwest'
ern Miller ot June 14 as follows:
The sudden advent of hot weather at the
dose of last week has had a rather decided
effect upon the wheat market, which, like
perspiring humanity, is very limp Just now,
It Is an old saying that hot weather largely
reduces the demand for bread.
In addition to the bet weather and the
generally favorable condition of the European
crops, the market has also been Influenced by
larger Russian -shipments than were
pectcd. Everything tends to Indicate. In fact.
that Russia has a very large amount of
wheat available for. export.
Under ordinary conditions the faet that
European Importing countries depend upon
Russia for so large a proportion of their re-
qulrements -would have Influenced Russian
holders very considerably; but this season
the circumstances are-such that there Is
general desire to turn the wheat Into cash.
for accommodation by the banks In the mat
ters of advances- on stored grain, is difficult
to obtain.
Nothing is. however, more obvious than that
the requirements of ' Europe during the next
three months until In fact, the new wheat
comes Into play will be very large. England
has practically no home-grown wheat left.
Germany is almost In the same condition, and
Spain Is Importing at the rate of about 100.-
000 quarters per week. a
France Is disappointing In this respect, but
the level of price In that country remains
very close to an Importing point, and notn
lng short of a very early harvest and very
excellent crop prospects will. I believe, pre
vent rather large Imports being found neces
sary before August. Altogether I etill in
cltne to the opinion that supply and demand
will run a very close race during the next
two months with the chances In favor of
the latter from a market point of view If
anything should happen to mar the crop
prospects.
Until 10 days ago there were rather serious
complaints, both from official and private
sources, that the Spring-sown crops en Rus-
sta were being seriously endangered by the
prolonged drouth. Since then, however, bene
ficial rains have fallen tn the chief districts,
and the anxiety la lessened, but not entirely
dispelled.
The following Is the record of the Euro
pean imports of wheat and flour In the nine

ters. hundreds omitted):

There Is every reason to believe that for
