WHEAT IS DROPPING
Though No Local Sales Are
Made, Quotations Closer.
FRANCE AND ITALY BUYING
Advance Shown In BicU for Oats.
Pay's Receipts for Grains. Flour
and Hajr Reported .Normal
by Merchant EUchange.
A tendency oa the part of buyer and sell
er to get together oa a common price 1 the
feature of the wheat market. This was shown
by the activities at tbe Merchant Exchnse
eaterday. Although no sales were made, the
general trend of prices ssked was downward.
Off ara were th same aa Saturday, with the
single exception of that for bluestem. which
wss a cent lower.
Club was bid M cent and forty-fold V0
cents. These grades of wheat, however.
were held at Uo cents snd PS cents, re
speottvely. la the case of bluestem. the bay
era and sailers came nearer getting to
gether. $1 being asked snd V oents bid.
Iealers are of tbe opinion that tner is
little possibility for an aaance In wheat
prices at the present time. To substantiate
this belief tby point out the unusually blgh
freight rsies for shipping the grain snd
also the fact that England currency Is be
low par.
England la said to be buying very little
wheat at the preeent time, according to some
dealers. France and Italy ara now the prin
cipal factors la the market for thst cereal.
A telegrsm received by one prominent buyr
yesterday declaied thst It was lmposslMe
to ell wheat at any price In England at the
present time.
Another dealer, discussing the situation
yesterday, said that Kn gland was still in the
market for wheat, llo said mat it waa not
tba inability to sell In foreign countries aa
much aa the tnebtllty to purchase hare which
he found to be the principal factor In pre
venting more rsptd movement of wheel.
A prominent buyer pointed out that de
aplte the seemingly low quotations for wheat
they were mucn better then for the same
tlma 'at yar. He said that wheat was
on th a erase about li cent higher than
last yesr at the same data.
"in addition. he said, -we neve to pay
sbout 40 cents more to ship to Europe than
did last year, which means that much
more adUed to the prica of grain when It
reach, Its destination."
Bids for future on wheat at the Mer
chants Eicharr aversged sbout 3 cents
iorr tbsa on Saturday.
Thcra waa an edan.e la the offerings for
oats, that cerral going up about CO cants In
tha bidding and closing at J4 iO. Bran ana
aborts want down cents compared wiin
Saturday s quotations.
Th dajr'a receipts were reported to be
normal for a heat, barley, eats, flour and
bay.
Shippers' F

Average receipts of poultry and dressed
meat ware reported on Front street yester

market situation were reported and desler
srs of the opinion thst this will be another
week with a good volume of business.
Banana Shipment Ielayed.
A train load of bananas arrived yesterdey
from the South, Tbe trais wss delayed 8
hours on the trip and some of tbe fruit was
a little ripe,
Choice Cantaloupes Vp.
Cantaloupes showed a slight advenes on
Front street yesterday for choice. This deal
ers said was owing to tha receipt of ship
ments of unuiually good stock rather than
to sny decrease In the supply.
Fruit Becrtpts Heavy.
Receipts of fruit snd vegetables were
heavy on Front street yesterday and dealers
reported a good volume of business. Predic
tions were that the week would show an
unusually heavy trade.

STEEL TRADES DEAL
Market Breaks at Opening, but

WAR SHARES FALL AND RISE

ins Cansts Kally In Stocks
..Iter Depression.
KETV TORK. Aug. 23. Moderate Irregu
larity, followed by general depression and
a hasty and eomplet. recovery, marked
tba successive stagea of today'a stock mar
ket. These changes resulted In tha main
from th. aggressions of the short Interest,
which chose to place an unfavorable .con
struction upon latast International d.velop
menta, but rushed to cover when freo and
confident buying caused a sharp rebound.
United states Steel was again the out
standing feature, the extent of the day's
operations In that Mock exceeding any
record of recent yeara. It opened with
a sale of 13.000 shares at the minimum price
of 70. or S under last weck'e close, but
soon advanced to 71. only to fall back
to 674 before midday. At that level aup-
porting orders Boon effected a sharp re
versal and thereafter the atock manifested
greater strength, again rising to 71 H and
closing with a net gain of "4 to 70 .
Trading In steel aggregated 227.000 shares.
or about 23 per cent of tbe total output
of O1.000 ahare.
While ateel was at Its worst, the war
sharea beran to crumble, losses ranging
from 4 to 7 points. The recovery In thee.
stocks was even more thorough, however,
not nnlv wloln. out most losses, but show
ing actual advancea of on. to three points
In th. final hour. This advantage was
fortified In part Just before the close, wnen
prices receded from their best, and Beth
lehem Steel fell IK to 2fi0'4.
The efforta of the bears to capitalist
the Arable Incident proved abortive, con-erv.-lv.
wall Street falilnr In line with
Washington's receptive attitude. Another
factor of rejoicing waa the placing of large
orders with steel and Iron companies, and
several excellent .railway returns. Including
that of the Southern Pacific Company,
which showed a net gain for July of
it aoo ooo.
For the first time In several weeks. Lon

CHTCAGO, Aug. 23. The European war
situation was the main influence today In
sending wheat down. The close was weak.
114c to 2, ft2'c lower than Saturday's
close, with September at $1.0014 and De
cember, at 974 97c. Corn closed at
14c to 4c net loss. Oats were off 4c
to ?4lc, and provisions were unchanged
to 10c higher.
Light frosts in the Canadian Northwest
had caused a small upturn earlier In toe
day, this market being Influenced by the
bulge there, but the Impetus it gave waa
not great and did QOt last long.
Though corn was comparatively weak. It
held ita own a. little better than other
grains because of a forecast of cooler
veather. There wa fair buying among
commission houses. Oats followed the
weakness In wheat, and though there was
some buying near the close by shorts, the
undertone was easy.
Provisions were helped upward by a Jump
of 10c in hog prices and by active oov
erlng by shorts. Lard, weak at the start,
gained a little later, and held steady to
the close
