THE MORNING OREGONTAN. THURSDAY, JULY 30, 1914.
HIGH PRICES RULE
Wheat Market Loses None of
Its Strength.
FARMERS HOLDING FIRM
Less Excitement Prevails In North
west, trat Buyers Are. Still Keen
for Grain In Spite of
Reactions Elsewhere.
There was not as much excitement In the
North-western wheat market yesterday on
the preceding day. but the market lost none
of It. .trensth. Buying quieted down In a
material degree. This was not only because
dealers were more wary in view of the re
cessions In the distant markets, but ths
farmers had much to do with the slacken
log of trad. All are apprised now of the
situation abroad, and bullishness In the ex
treme prevails In the selling sections.
While a number of the larger buyers de
clined to venture farther on the advancing
market, all did not withdraw, and agents
of Coast firms were busy at country points
taking in what wheat was offered. Club
was quoted at S1H cent and forty-fold at
;u cents, and It Is safe to say that every
thing available at these prices found a
buyer ready to take It.
There was, of course, much uncertainty in
the market. Everything hinges on the de
velopment, of the next day or tVo. but In
the meantime buyers are not idle Lntli
there is assurance of a peaceful settlement
of the Servian affair or at least proof it
will be localised, the market Is expected t
maintain all of Its present strength.
There was a rumor yesterday of the sale
of a small cargo of club and forty-fold a.
7s d. The name of the ship was not
given anjl the rumor lacked verification. It
"as said the sale was made on the early
excitement, and that the deal conuld not
be repeated.
Local receipts In cars were reported oy
the Merchants Exchange as follows:

NEW YORK, July 29. The local stock
exchange was almost the only market of
Importance at home or abroad to preserve
Its stability, though at times, especially In
the initial trading, storm signals were In
evidence as a result of the seml-paralysls
manifested by London and Berlin.
Latest developments in the Servian situa
tion caused the British and French markets
practically to withdraw from all active op
erations, while other European exenanges.
including Frankfort and Hamburg, deemed
It expedient to follow the course of Am
sterdam. Vienna, Madrid and Montreal,
which suspended business sltogether.
An unusual feature of the London mar
ket wa. the merely nominal quotations
posted for many American Issues, while
those In which transactions uctually were
made declined two to Ave points.
Opening prices here were inclined to fol
low London's lead, hut a sudden reversal
followed an active buying movement of
Canadian Pacific for Berlin. The closing
was strong.
An Important factor In the advance here
was the extensive purchases credited to in
vestors, an element which has long been
lacking In the financial district. To the
buying of this character might be added
the substantial support accorded by leading
banking Interests.
Bonds fluctuated widely, showing less re
cuperative ability than stocks Total sales,
