The advance on east-bound commodities went Into effect yesterday. Export provisions are Increased 5 cents to 25 cents and export oats rates are advanced from to 11 cents. The domestic rate on proVisions remains unchanged, at 23 cents; corn Is advanced to 13 cents and oats is advanced 2 cents, to 15 cents. Eastern traffic men say the new rates will be maintained as long as conditions warrant, which, being Interpreted, means until some one is suspected of shading them. Low Rate for Harvest Hands, . Officers of the railroads running west and northwest from Chicago took further ac- , tlon at a meeting yesterday to Induce harvest workers to go to the Western wheat belts and relieve the deemand for labor. It was agreed that Sor parties of five or more traveling on one ticket from all points outside of Chicago a rate of 2 cents per mile would be made. A lower rate, 17 per ticket. Is already in effect from Chicago to St. Paul and Minneapolis. The restriction on the latter ticket that at least ten perrons must travel on one ticket has been modified to the extent of allowing live or more men to travel on one ticket. General Xotea. The Pennsylvania relief department paid out during tha month cf Juno to members . t23.400.SO. . The C. II. & D. has placed an order for ' three hundred cars thirty-six feet long and of 60,000 pounds capacity. . The volume of travel In all directions 13 without precedent. All the roads report an . extraordinarily large business. The east-bound shipments from Chicago last week were 134.2G0 tons, including 114,478 tona of flour and grain and 1D.7S2 tons of provisions. Track laying began yesterday at Emory Gap on the Tennessee Central Railroad. Work on the tunnel at Rockwood Is being pushed day and night. The Pennsylvania passenger men report a very large inquiry for tickets for the excursion to Atlantic City by that line on the 10th. They expect to send out not less than seven full sleepers from this city. During the month of July the Belt Railway transiVrred 82.S43 cars of through freight, delivjred to the stockyards 5,254 carloads or live stock and to private switches connected 'with its llnca 3,554 carloads of freight. The Improvements to be made by the JMg Four at Anderson, and which are now tinder way, will include switching yards to cost half a million and a roundhouse with full equipment for all the business of a leading divisional point. The assumption of the duties of traffic ' manager of the Cleveland, Canton & Southern by H. J. Booth 'traffic manager of the Wheeling & Lake Erie, is regarded as the first step In the absorption of the former road by the latter. The United States Trust Company will pay on Sept. 1. principal and Interest of the no&OOO receivers' equipment certificates of November, M of the Wisconsin Central Company, and )61,000 of the Wisconsin Central Railroad Company. Engineers have begun to survey a line from Kent to Gallon, O., along the Erie Railroad for the purpose of doing away with thirteen heavy grades that have seriously Interfered with the traffic and which will shorten the road considerably. W. O. Bayley, who has been superintendent of the 8t. Louis division of the Big Four, has assumed the duties of superintendent of the Cincinnati and Sandusky division, with headquarters at Springfield, O., tucceedlng William Qulnn, resigned. . Thomas W. Demarest, late general foreman of the locomotive department of the Panhandle shops in this city, has been appointed master mechanic at the Logansport rhops, aa successor to Mr. Pennock. whose death by drowning occurred recently. The Southwestern lines have placed the weighing and Inspection of freight In the fcands of Superintendent Carman, of the Western Weighing and Inspection Bureau. This was agreed upon at the meeting of the Southwestern Freight Committee held at Eureka Springs last week. The Panhandle has begun work at AnderEon on a double main track system to extend through the gas belt and ultimately wfll extend from Richmond to Logansport. It Is believed the line will at no distant day he double tracked the entire distance between Cincinnati and Chicago. Thomas Emerson, of Wapokoneta, O., in the employ of the C.. II. & I. Railway, has banded In his resignation. He began work on the C, H. & D. in 18 and has been with It ever since, and in all hl3 forty-one years of service has missed but rive trains. He .was eighty-four years old yesterday. W. K. Morley, late of the Chicago & Alton, lias begun his new duties as superintendent of the Louisville. Evansvllle & St. Louis to-day, with headquarters In Princeton. Superintendent E. llolbrook. who preceded 3klorley. has been granted a two months' leave of absence and will travel In California, The Western Passenger Association will hold. Its next general meeting at Marquette, Mich. As there will be a number of Important questions to occupy the attention of the members, and as they are likely to provoke some warm debate, the association wisely chose a cool and quiet place for Its labors. Beginning to-day the Western roads will allow no commission on Imported fruits and coffee. This decision was unanimously reached at a meeting of the Eastern representative of the Western roads in Nw Xork on Monday. Brokers will be the principal sufferers from the new conditions, for the railroads will pocket the money they heretofore have received in the form of commissions. William M. Greene, vice president and r-neraJ manager of the Baltimore rffe Ohio Southwestern, has issued the following circular: "Having been elected vice president and general manager of the above named company, the several officers, agents and employes of the operating, traffic and accounting departments will continue in the respective positions they have heretofore held until further orders." President Thomas, of the Erie, has notified the arbitrators chosen to arbitrate the question of differential and excess fares, commissions, etc, for the Eastern lines that the Erie would not abide by the terms of uch arbitration. The Erie takes this posi tion on the ground that the terms of the resolution adopted at the Now xork confer ence have not beerj faithfully observed by the Eastern lines. W. G Martin, acting general passenger acent of the Iowa Central Railroad, handed In his resignation Monday to take immediate affect. He is a brother of General Manaper I M. Martin, and severs his connection with the road on arcount of disagreements with New York orneIal3 of the company. ThiJ tep Is believed by many to be the beginning of the end of the Martin regime cn the Iowa Central, and that General Man ager Martin's retirement will soon follow. The net earnings of the Atchison system for the month of June were $1.13i.C?3. an increase of .),(G4 over the net earnings of the lame month of last year For the twelve months of the fiscal year ending June 2) the net earnings of the system were 112.3,517, kxi Increase of 12.193.03 over the net arnlnrs of the corresponding period of the Erectile j fiscal year. Durinr the year thi

pro?s earnings were $40,513,498, an Increase of $!.2f9..TK. and the operating expenses were T-T.Gtrt.C'd. a decrease of lsy3.654. Paul Morton, second vice president of the Santa Fe, In dlscu?lng the rate situation, declared it as his opinion that one of three tl lntrs must be done to brlrM? prosperity to the roads and fatisfactlon to the shippers, viz.. legalized pooling, concentration of ownership or government control. The public will agre with Mr. Morton that the shipper will realize more satisfaction from stable rates than from limitless competition. The trend of public opinion seems to be more and more in favor of pooling, under proper restrictions and control. The Chicago passenger men do not enthuse over the proposition of the New Yorkers to establish a one-fare rate from Chiciko to New York end return on the occasion of the coming Dewey celebration. They argue that as the admiral is expected to visit Chicago soon not over one hundred tickets would be sold to legitimate excursionists for this occasion, while It would open a door for illimitable scalping. Each is afraid his neighbor will sell a block ot tickets to the Bcalpers, though he well knows neither he nor any of his ticket sellers would be guilty of such conduct. It is announced that the Gulf, Beaumont & Great Northern Railroad is to be constructed Immediately and there is considerable activity among oil men. This line, as surveyed, traverses a vast oil field In eastern Texas which has heretofore been Inaccessible for lack of railroad facilities. John H. Kirby, of Houston, president of the Gulf, Beaumont & Great Northern Railroad Company, has recently purchased and leased a large area of these oil fields and preparations are being made to sink wells and provide Immediately for their development.

A REACTION IN ' STOCKS

AFTER FIRM OPEMXG THE MARKET SWITCHED, CLOSIXG LOWER. Sloney Rated Stiffen, and Store Talk of Stringency Is Heard Local Markets Rule Steady.' At New York yesterday, money "was steady at SVaH per cent; last loan, 4. Prime mercantile paper, ZKtiVA per cent. Sterling exchange was heavy, with ac tual business In bankers' bills at for demand, and I4.83U for sixty days. Posted rates, 4.844.Mtt and el.874.&S; commercial bills. Silver certificates. COH'SClc. Bar silver, 60-c; Mexican dollars, 4Sc. At London bar silver closed steady at 279id an ounce. Tuesday's New .York stock market began strong, but the bullish sentiment became exhausted, and the close was lower than on Monday night. The declines extended to a point each In Burlington and Pennsylvania, and from one to two points in the leading industrials. Soon after the opening realizing sales were made on a large scale, operators taking advantage of heavy commission house demand to take the profits made on the recent rise. The outside buying and the realizing seemed about equally advanced for a time, but the -weight of the selling proved too much for the market to carry, and prices of railroads gave way. The softness of the market moved the professional operators to turn to the short side, after having realized, and they at tacked values vigorously In the afternoon. wiping out practically all the gains In the specialties and carrying the railroads gen erally a sharp fraction below Monday night! There were isolated stocks which maintained their strength throughout the day, notably the Chicago Great Western Issues, Colorado & Southern, and Chicago & Eastern Illinois, which rose, from a fraction to Z'9. The strong June statements by Atchison and Union Pacific were without marked effect. Rates for call money were marked up to 4 Der cent in the afternoon. Cheap money does not appear nearer than It did a month ago, as London and the continent are evidently counting on borrowing the credits to be establisned by the coming export movement. The calling home of these credits would, it seems, result in sales of securities rather than shipments of gold, which the Bank of England is still buying in the open market and from Germany. London bought quite freely of stocks In New York to-dav. and exchange bills against iuiure grain shipments continued in large supply. There has also been a sharp fall in exchange on Paris this week, and yesterday sterling exchange In Paris rose Hi centimes. Banks in other cities have been large lenders in New York and have drawn on their deposits in New York banks for the purpose. This operation recuces tne possiDiuues oi further strain on New York banks through demand to move the crops. But for the moment It makes increased demands on them and does not offer much relief to the local money situation. Standard incomes, t-ort Worth ana uenver City firsts and Oregon Short Line incomes showed strength. Otherwise the bond market was steady. Total sales, par value, 12.075,000. - Government bonds were unchanged on bid prices. The coupon bonds of the twos and threes, the new fours and fives were ex-Interest.

The signs of activity in the wholesale districts yesterday were unmistakable. Shipments of dry goods, groceries, etc., were large, and dealers spoke of general satisfaction with the situation and the outlook. Country produce, fruits and vegetables were rather quiet, though prices were holding steadily and no complaints were made of actual dullness. Wheat went off another 1?lc, and oats are away off 23c owing to the coming on of the new crop.

WEAKER GRAIN MARKETS

COTtN LED IX ACTIVITY, WITH LARGE HOLDERS LIQt'IDATIXG. September "Wheat Touched COc After the Dulls Began to Throw It Over Provisions Some Firmer. CHICAGO, Aug. 1. Corn was the big mar ket on 'Change to-day, extremely favorable crop reports causing liquidation that was heavy enough to cut H5c off previous prices. Wheat suffered from lack of cash demand and lot HSHc Oats closed He lower. Provisions closed rather weak, but a shade higher. Pronounced dullness was practically the only feature of wheat from the opening un til within three-quarters of an hour of the close. During that time the range of prices was but c, and for the long periods the pit was half deserted, traders going to provisions and corn, where more activity was apparent. The opening was rather weak, at a slight decline, September starting c lower, at 9CSc. It advanced shortly after the opening to rc, but soon fell back to opening prices and until after noon kept within that range. Little long liquidation was noticeable during the morning, and, although news as a rule was bearish, the absence of selling pressure prevented any material decline. Cables were lower, but did not show the decline expected. Reports from the spring-wheat country Indicated a large crop and the weather was favorable for the grain. Northwest receipts were light, Minneapolis and Duluth reporting 236 cars, against 2S2 last week and 82 a year ago. Chicago receipts were 112 cars, six of contract grade. Little new wheat was reported among the arrivals. Total receipts at primary points-Aeere $40,000 btj, compared with 592,000 bu a year ago. Atlantic port clearances of wheat and flour amounted to 515,000 bu. Bradstreet's report on the visible supply, due about noon, had a tendency to restrict trading In the morning, as a bearish report was apprehended. This surmise proved to be correct, the decrease being put at oniy 3oo(uw nu, against 5,714,000 bu a year ago. About 12:80 o'clock the almost complete absence of cash demand, both here and at outside points,! apparently impressed the bulls with the futility of longer holding their wheat and a liquidating movement was started, which grew decidedly heavy as the session drew to a clese. The weak ness in corn acted as a spur to the disgusted longs, and large quantities of long wheat came out on -the decline. Previous to the noon hour the September price had touched tK'fl70c on a moderate amount of buying, frinclpally by shorts, but It declined rapdly under the liquidation, and shortly be fore the close touched 69c. The close was weak, at &c sellers. Corn was weak and at times Quite active. Reports from the corn belt indicated a large crop; This and continued favorable weather and large receipts. SSI cars, started Important outside liquidation. Local longs Joined the selling movement later and prices declined steadily. A redeeming feature was the sharp cash demand, at least 00.000 bu being disposed of. September ranged from 30c to 30c, and closed c lower, at 30jx30c. Oats were dull, but steady. In tpite of the weakness of other grains. There was a fair export demand at the seaboard and enough buyers of September to keep the price steady most of the session. Receipts were heavy, 692 cars.
