HIDE PRICES AT TOP
Dealers Look for No Further
Advances This Season.
ALL MARKETS ARE QUIET
l;aftern Stocks Reduced to Mini
mum, Which May Open Way lor
Kevised Values on Next
t Talis Take Off.
TTlde prices, according to local dealers,
fiave got as high as they will go this a
sjn. The markets have quieted down in all
sections. Kaet and West. According to the
latest word from Eastern centers, stocks
have been very closely cleaned up. the latest
aalrs including even last Winter's long
haired hides, which dealers had been carry
ing in hope of getting betterrates.
Because of the relatively bare condition
of the domestic market there is some un
certainty as to the future course of prices,
and should a broader demand develop a-t
the close of Hummer, values may be forced
to a level, but In the meantime, there is
nothing in sight to indicate a change either
way in prices. Trade reports Just received
from Chicago say of the Eastern situation:
"There is considerable hesiUincy on the
part of tanners in, buying hides and the mar
ket of late on most varieties has ruled
auift. (j
"The only development of importance dur
ing the week has been in Latin-American
dry hides in the New York market, which
have been pretty well cleaned up by large
buyers at unchanged prices. Sales aggre
gated about 70,tX of these hides, consisting
mainly of, Colombians at "Uc and up to
.SiitetS for mountain Bogotas; also Orinocos
at Si! (4c, Puerto Cabell as, etc., at 33c. and
Central Americans at 33c. About the same
time as these transactions, and also a lit
tle later, some export demand developed
for Antioqulns and about 6000 of these were
taken for shipment abroad at 3&c, which
was an advance of 3.&c over' other sales of
these at the same time to domestic oper
ators. Business of late at the Klvcr Plate
has been Interrupted by the national holi
days in the Argentine. Sales were also
made late last week of 17,000 frigorificos to
Liverpool at 22 Vi c for best sorts of Bueilos
Aires packers and -2 c to '22 c for Mon
te v Id toa.
"The entire domestic market rules quiet.
Chicago packers have made a few sales.
as most of them have not been disposed until
now to offc-r July salting stock and th
prices talked on these hides are too much
above the views of tanners to effect any
sales of account. One lot of about 5O00
June and early July heavy Texas steers sold
at 2-"c and about 15,000 May and June butt
brands sold at 21c. Outside of these trans
actions, however, sales have been only of
mall scattering lots. Some of the smaller
packers In New York cleaned out several
J odd lots on hand. Including 3000 native
strers dating back In some instances to last
Noivmbor salting at 20 'c to 21c.
'Country hides are quiet, with a variety
of prices ruling according to how lota run
for hair and quality, etc. Chicago buffs are
ranged 30lc to -Oc. with some offerings of
lots running GO per cent short hair at 19c.
Some choice lots of country 'heavy steers
have been sold at ic. Including two cars of
JvIichiKans taken in Kc York at this price.
"Calfskins show more strength thast any
thing else. Some Western packers moved
at as high as 3bc per pound and New York
Cities sold by the pieces at S3.10 for 5 to 7
pounds. $3.00 for 7 to 9 pounds and $4.10
x for t to 12 pounds. These are now all
cleaned up and for further collections dealers
are demanding 5c to 10c apiece more."
WHEAT FOLLOWS ClUCACKVS LEAD
Local Market Is XTriu and Higher Septem
ber Barley Sold.
The local wheat market was strong and
higher yesterday, following the lead of
Chicago, where tftere was a bulge of about
3 cents on reports of damage from heat
and black rust. The news from Chicago
that bluestem wheat In Minnesota and
the Dakotas had been more seriously at
1 ctrted than any other variety particulars
interested grain men here. Still, the fact
was not lost sight of that the Liverpool mar
ket has not as yet responded to the numerous
advances at Chicago and local grain men
continue skeptical as tu the extent of the
titmaga to the crop.
As to the crop in the Pacific Northwest,
ft is certain to be a normal one of 50,000,000
to 55.ooo.COO bushels, and with lO.OOO.OtW
to 12.000.000 carry over there will be about
as much wheat on hand as at the beginning
or last season and with a rather poore
outlet thnn a year ago.
.15 ui prices on wheat averaged 1 cen
higher on the Merchants' Exchange One
hundred tons of September barley were sold
at $S. Oats bids were raised 25 and 00
cents.

SMALL PART OF VALLEV CLIP SOLD
Dealers Kstluiai 70 IW rent of Wool Still
In ti rowers' Hands.
A few lots of Valley wool have changed
bands in the l.-.t few days. Buyers are now
quoting 32 cents as the top price and do
not appear to be making strong efforts tc
t further supplies.
The explanation of the reduction in bid?
a compared with prices offered eaxlier In
the season is the heavier shrinkage of thia
ypar'a Valley wools. A good part of th
clip was shorn, in rainy weather and much
of the wool now in warehouse is still wet.
Buyers insist on making allowance for this
dded weight In purchasing-. It is estimated
that not over 30 per cent of the Valley
clip has been sold to date.

Of acres of beets. Apples, peaches, pears and
grapes have increased in size, their color is

The apple crop is normal, with -the price
excellent and stable. Pears have made an
unusually fine showing. Many growers have
already sold for from 2 to 3 per box, which
will net a fine profit. Others are selling
for $1.25 a fcor cn the trees. Cherries have

NEW YORK, July 20. Foreign advices
contributed largely to such uncertain ten

intention of the. British treasury to levy a

Trading in marines was Out of all propor

Munitions in general, as wen as me raoion

Grains Are Iiiglicr.
CHICAGO. July 20. Reports that were
said to show the gravest crop Injury Sn the
Northwest since 1004 led today to a sharp
upturn In prices of wheat. The market
closed strong at 22c to 3c net ad
vance, w ith September $1.13 1.13 and
December $1.17. Corn wound up un
changed to higher, oats with a gain ot
c to c and provisions varying from luc
decline to a gain of an. equal amount.
Advances In wheat prices began as soon as
the market opened, and there was at no
time any decided setbsck. North Dakota
dispatches complained chiefly that the black
rust bad spread to the stems oi me piani,
whereas South Dakota advices laid greater
stress on withering or blight caused by thi
excessive heat. Meanwhile, unfavorable crop
conditions reoorted from Europe, especially
Franca, tended further to nit tne maraei
hero.
Rains In the Southwest and West had only
a temporary bearish effect on corn.
Oats paralleled the action ot corn.
Provisions displayed a tendency to respond
all around to the advance In grain.
