Little Spart of Business in Dry Goods i.ptice r Continue Bniy-Grain Markets Are Better. Yesterday was a rather dull day ou Commission row. There Is a good supply of fruits and vegetables, but buyers arc slow in stocking up. There are no changes in quotations except iu the addition to the list of home-grown peaches and pears, which are in fair supply. New corn, cabbage and kindred articles are coming in freely and prices are easing off. Produce markets are fairly active. Receipts of eggs are liberal. Packers are candling closely and throw out a good many spoiled eggs, but are paying 13 cents for all good stock. Butter is in liberal supply and choice meets with ready sale, but laferior stock is difficult to dispose of. Receipts of poultry have increased somewhat and so has the demand, young chickens especially being iu active request. Cheese is in better supply and prices are easier. Flour carries a steady, firm tone and au impression prevails that lower prices need not be expected for some time to come, as much of the new wheat arriving will be unfit to convert into flour for some time. Other cereal products are in good request, although not selling as well as during the winter months. Grocers are having an excellent trade. The dry goods houses have had a little brush of trade this weel and in fact are doing more business than usual in the month of July. Reports of traveling salesmen are all to the effect that there is to be a big fall trade. Stocks of retail dry goods merchants are low and their customers have monev with which to buy goods. Druggists report sales good for the season of the yar. Sales of paints and oils have been unusually large this season. There were no price changes voterday calling for extended remark. It is in some measure a bet wees -seasons time and fluctuations in values will be slight during the entire month. InUlnnupolia Grnin Market. There is a good deal of activity in the local grain market. All cereals which grade well are readily taken at the prices quoted. Receipts of new wheat are increasing and about two-thirds of the arrivals grade well. With each day the quality is improving and a much smaller percentage of the what arriving will be rejected on account of poojr Quality. Corn continues Arm.

JOHN SHINE IN TROUBLE SERIOUS CHARGES MADE TO BOARD OF SAFETY AGAINST HIM. He Is Accused of Assaulting Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Oroderlck While Drunk Tkc Board's Bnir Day. There will be a lively session of the Board of Public Safety next Monday afternoon, when two patrolmen, John Shj: and Thomas Rochford, are placed on trial to answer charges against them. The two cased are not connected in any way and the men will be tried on separate charges. Agninst Patrolman Shine serious allegations are made by Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Broderick, who live at No. 225 West Maryland street. Their complaint, filed with Superintendent Taffe and the board, states that on the riight of July. 2, about 11:30, Shine entered the back yard of their home and immediately began to abuse and insult them. When Broderlck resented this surprising treatment and attempted to defend his wife and himself it is declared that Shine assaulted and severely beat both of fhem. They were injured so badly that they have been under the care of Dr. S. E. Crose since that time, the complaint avers. They say that Shine was drunk, that he was in citizens' clothes and that after beating them and insulting them he arrested them and sent them to the police station for no cause whatever. The formal charge against Shine, preferred by Superintendent Taffe, is drunkenness and conduct unbecoming an officer. Patrolman Rochford's case Is not so serious. The charge against him is plain drunk. At Its regular meeting yesterday afternoon the board transacted a lot of business. Probst & Kassebaum received the hay contract to supply the police station. Twelve tons were ordered at $17 a ton. Frank E. Janes got the contract for oats on his bid of 43 cents a bushel. Both bids Were the lowest made. A new lire captain was appointed by the board yesterday. After about twonty-rive years' faithful service James Cullings is promoted from fireman to captain. He will probably be given charge of the new truck cotnpany to be stationed at Kenwood. Four substitutes were given places as regular firemen. They are Harry Lynch and Wallace Fisk. Republicans, and Charles Householder and Martin Fallon. Democrats. Three additional regular firemen were appointed after satisfactorily passing through the sixty days' probationary service. They are Harold Long, Virgil Ferguson and Harry Shumakt r. J. R. V". Allen and Warren Sloan, regular firemen, were granted thirty days' leave of absence by the beard. Two additional fire alarm boxes were ordered placed in the Central Hospital for the Insane and one at the corner of Prospect and Nelson streets. Good Work Recognised. In recognition of the splendid service done by Chief Coots arc the lire department at the recent Standard OilCompany fire at Pine and Lord streets the company yesterday sent Mr. Coots a check tor $200 for the firemen's pension fund. The gift was greatly appreciated by the chief and his me n, and a letter of thanks was sent the-local manager of the Standard Oil Company. e BOARD OF WORKS ROl'TIXE. BIDS RECK IV KD.

STOCKS UNDER PRESSURE
MONETARY EXIGENCIES flIVE COl'RAOE TO THE BEAR ELEMENT. Storks Raided on All Sidea, but the act Losses' Are Diminished by Periods of Short foverln?. NEW YORK. July 15.-The violent liquidation of stocks and bonds continued on the Stock Exchange to-day and established the general low level of values for the year. The money exigencies of the New York Centra!, which was the particluar development on which the present selling movement smarted, widened so as to take in the railroad world quite generally. Yesterday's late announcement that the Chicago, Burlington & yuincy had borrowed $5,000,000 for a period extending over into next March on a 6 per cent, basis was supplemented to-day by tho official announcement that the Union Pacific Company had negotiated its notes to the extent of $10,000,000 for a year and a half also practically on a 6 per cent, basis. The authoritative news of the day regarding the money requirements of the great railroad corporations was supplemenetd by countlets rumors of all degrees of credibility pointing to urgent money needs on the part of the railroad world in general and individual capitalists in particular, and alleging that great sacrifices were necessary to be made to secure funds in hand. The.effect of this condition was to provide a field day for the bears in the stock market. This element of the stock brokers was diligent in pursuing their advantage all day long, and the extent of their operations on the short side left an effective requirement for stocks towards the end of the day. The buying of the bears to cover caused a strong rally in the market, which wiped out the earlier losses in some cases, notably in St. Paul, New York Central. Reading and Norfolk & Western. The day's losses in the active list were not greater at any time than sre frequently shown during an active selling movement, the range running generally within one to three points. But in the inactive list, and especially among stocks regarded as of a high investment grade, there were some drastic cuts in market values. In many cases these compare with long-standing quotations made on all sides and result from the marketing of comparatively small blocks of stock. The inference Is plain that these represent a sort of revision of book values. While the assumption is warranted that such sales are made to supply urgent money requirements there is a possibility also of the attraction of the present rates in the open money market inducing the selling of securities to employ funds in that way. This is the natural process by which prices of securities adjust themselves to the level of the money market. That money Is at present in active demand at high rates and is likely to continue so for a considerable period is a just inference from all the existing phenomena in the money market and the stock market. News from various points of projects of combinations of gas, electric light and trolley companies show sources for additional demands for money. Some of the declines in high grade investment stocks to-day ran all the way from 4 to 20 points, and Included such stocks as General Electric, Westlnghouse Electric, the New York. Chicago & St. Louis preferred stocks, Nashville, Chattanooga & St. Louis, Lackawanna, Delaware & Hudson, Pittsburg, C, C. & St. Louis, United States Express, St. Paul preferred, Brooklyn Union Gas, Buffalo. Rochester & Pittsburg, Long Island, etc. In the active list Pennsylvania, New York Central, the Pacifies and the United States Steel stocks were most heavily sold. There was enormous short covering at different times during the day, the breaking out of depression at new points being used to cover to advantage, where declines had already occurred. The routine news of the day outside of the money gituatkm was entirely Ignored. The close was rather irregular, owing to some frcsh recessions Just at the last. The bond market reflected the pressure of liquidation rather more generally than heretofore, and there were declines of 1 to in many favorite bonds of what may be called a secondary grade. Losses among the speculative issues reached as high as 3 or 3Vi in some cases. Total sales at par value were $3,780,000. United States twos were all unchanged on the last call.

"When the market opened this morning the supply In the pens was not excessive, and with probably more good cattle represented than for several days the bidding for that clasa Mas more animated. Under the circumstances salesmen rather espeeted higher prices, but it was soon evident that buyers would not pay an advance. Early in the day. however, the best selections were selling promptly enough at tully steady prices compared with yesterday, and at a fair advance over prices current a week ago. The demand for cattle a little below the standard in quality and finish was no better. It was with difficulty that salesmen transferred this class at steady price. There was alto a very slow outlet for stockers and feeding cattle, and sales usually were made to professional buyers at steady price. In some lines sales to-day were higher than they have been for some tims past, but the difference was almost entirely due to an improvement In the cattle. Several loads came in late and were not offered. Prime steers sold as high as .30. and fancy heifer at fl.SO.

There were net a great many light hogs, and a very large percentage of the supply were hogs averaging upward of 190 lbs. The market opened with a continued good demand from ealpperi and with quite a falling off in the receipts puckers were more indutrlous than yesteroav morning, which resulted in active competition at the start and the supply was changing hands promptly at unevenly higher prices. In some caaes light hogs were reported only 5c higher but the good medium to heavy grades, for which the competition was the strongest, sold usually at an advance of 10c. buyer operated freely at current prices, and latu in the day. with evl-
dently & fear that there would net be enough hogs to meet all the requirements, the market appeared a shade stronger and last sales in all cases were reported 10c higher than yesterday for all weights. Therefore the close was firm and a good clearance was made. The extreme range in price was from $5.2fi to 85.70. and the bulk of the supply sold at 85 305.50.

On account of a larger supply more buyers were Interested than for several days, and the market opened with most of the regular dealers in the field. The demand from local butchers, especially for Iambi, was again very good, and, although there wero rot as many sales to-day at the top price as yesterday, the market generally was reported steady. The competition for sheep was no better, and sales were at unchanged prices. Lambs sold as high as $5.75, quite a number at I54M.5. and other sales ranged from 83.50 to 84.85. Yearling sheep sold as high as 34. and the t. I price for old t-h ep was 83.50. with other sales ranging from 2 50 to $3.25. and most of the supply sold at $33.25.

The arrivals generally were of Just fair quality, ami nothing in the consignments could have bee n ex1 to soli at s- nsationnl prices. There was no increase in the attendance of buyers, and, with an absence ot really urgent orders, the auction was characterized by rather sluggish bidding. It was observed that the very few g vid hordes sold promptly enough, and sales were gt-nerally at fully steady prices, but all common to medium stock moved slowly and sold Usually at very little, if any, higher prices than their cost in the country. The blalr-Baker Horse Company sold about 200 head of Western range horsec this afternoon at prices ranging fr.m $15 to $?o per head in carloft.d lots.

Corn and Oats Follow the Lead of the Small Cereal Bnlite in Provisions, Led by Lard. CHICAGO, July 15.-Vheat showed strength at times, although the opening was easy and the market suffered a break late in the session. The close was weak at a loss of for September. Corn ruled steady at a decline from yesterday, September closing Vi7sc lower. Oats were aiso steady, closing e lower, but provision? were strong, showing gains of 40c to $1.12. Damage reports and the strong ca?h situation gave strength to wheat, although at the start weak cables and favorable weather caused a feeling of weakness. September opened a4c to He lower, at TT'Tc to 77c. Commission houses were good buyers at the decline, and later bullish advices from Si. Louis and buying orders from that point resulted in a better tone and sent September up to 78Vc. There were fair offerings by commission houses and the advance was not without setbacks. Just before the close long wheat bought earlier in the day began to come out and the market suffered a break in which all the advance and more was lost. September sold off to 77c, where it closed at a loss of Vi& c. Clearances of wheat and flour were equal to 369.319 bu. Receipts from the Southwest and at primary markets were light compared with last year. Minneapolis and Duluth reported receipts of 131 cars, which, with local receipts of fifty-eight cars, nineteen of contract grade, made a total of 189 cars, against 151 last week and 340 a year ago. The show of strength in wheat held the corn market steady and local traders wrho are bearishly inclined offered sparingly. Commission houses supported the market, but were unable to save a break at the close, when corn followed wheat. September opened He to 4c lower, at 80c to 5bc, and closed with a loss of v46rc, at 60c, after having sold up to 61tyc and back to 50c. Receipts were 183 cars, ten of contract grade. Oats were rather quiet, but held steady and within a small range, intluenced largely by other grains, and the close reflected the wheat break in a small degree. September was off c, at 33kiC. after ranging between 23c. the opening figure, and 34c. Receipts were 139 cars. There was a spurt In lard just before the close which sent the price of that product soaring. Provisions were strong throughout the day on buying by brokers thought to be acting for the large packers. With receipts at Western points showing a falling off the demand forced prices steadily upwards. Late in th- session all attention turned to lard. Shorts made n concerted rush to cover and the price of September advanced to $8.70, $1.12Vt over yesterday's close. Pork closed 70c higher, at $14.90, and ribs showed a gain of 40c. at $K7".
