Lull in New AVlieat Trading.
Crop Iieports Good.
Oriental flour buyers are asking for
prices cm exports for September shipment,
tout millers on this side are not yet ready
to mftk quotations, in view of the uncer
tainty of the wheat market. On spot busi
ness the market remains firm. Patent
prices are also -well maintained. Flour is
moving out well, and It Is jirobable that
stocks will be worked off before new flours
com on. Prices on the new crop product
will not bo named before the middle of
August or the first of September.
The wheat market is rather Inactive, as
California buyers show little interest. There
is a lull In new crop trading on the part of
both buyers and sellers. Quotations are
unchanged.
Reports from the rrowinpr crops are en
tirely satisfactory. The rain has been of
treat benefit In almost every section.
Local receipts, in cars, were reported by

STOCKS OF RICE ARB IECLINTNG
Honduras Offering- will Bo Cleaned Tp
Before Next Month Ends.
Commenting on the general rlco market
situation. Talmage says. In his weekly cir
cular to the trade:
"Under good demand the market rules
steady. The general assortment is becom
ing more contracted as parcels run out, with
little chance for duplicating at the primary
market except at higher cost. Therefore the
gradual depletion of reserve stocks of all
styles has a strengthening effect on present
holdings. Honduras offerings are growing
dally more scarce, and with any ordinary
demand the market will be cleaned up high
and dry before the next month passes out.
Japans aro still in abundant supply, but
there is decidedly more Inquiry and the
trade Is realizing that Japans are without
a doubt a purrhase at preseut figures and
worth pushing."
Poultry Receipts Light, Demand Slow.
The .week, jipctieiij with light poultry re
ceipts and no change in prices. Dealers
look for some Improvement In the market
for hens, but Springs are not likely to sell
better. The latter were quoted yesterday at
IS to 10 cents and hens at 12 cents. Ducks
were nominal with no demand. Country
dressed meats, were unchanged.
The egg market was very firm and ar
rivals were small. Sales were made at 22 V4

Saturday's Selling Proves
Have Been Overdone.

ENTIRE LIST MOVES UPWARD
Attempt of Shorts to Cover Reveals
Scarcity of Offerings Presi
dent's Currency Message Has
Xo Effect on Market.
NEW YORK, June 23. It was the opinion
of many traders today that Saturday's heavy
selling of stocks had been overdone, and
that there was no sound reason for such h
severe decline as that which brought last
week to a close.
There was in consequence a tendency to-w-ard
a recovery which was evident today as
soon as the market opened. Attempts to
cover revealed a scarcity of stocks. Nervous
ness of tho shorts was increased by the be
lief that Saturday's break was due principal
ly to a bear raid.
ay noon practically the entire list was
higher with gains running up to three points
in the case or union Pacific and Canadian
Pacific. In the latter half of the day. trad
ing grew dull and prices eased off gradually
irom the top.
Of influence In the improvement was the
Delief that the Interstate Commerce Com
mission's ruling in the freight rate case on
Saturday had received .too much emphasis
as a Dear factor.
President Wilson's message to Congress
on the currency question had no perceptiBle
tniiuence on the market. This was nrob
ably due to the fact that delivery of the
message was preceded by publication of the
currency bill Itself. It Is in the detailed nlan
sot forth In the bill that Wall street's chief
interest lies. Further slowing down In busi
ness was indicated by the fortnightly report
on idle freight cars. An Increase of nearly
n.u'JU idle cars was shown.
Bunds were firm. Steel 5's showed some
heaviness, falling to the recent low level.
