VERY GOOD GAINS MADE

511AH1: prices 111:1.11:1) nv tin; nouthlkv pacific settlement. First Sales of the Stock in Over a Month Contributory Cnmm to the Strength of the Market. NEW YORK. July 1T.-Early knowledge of the terms of Mr. Morgan's letter noml-natini-the members of the Northern Pacific board of director? to nil the vacanclf-s to be created was undoubtedly the cause of the emphatic recovery in prices in stocks to-day. The first intimation of the news came to the street through the open buy ing of round amounts of various stocks by brokers generally understood to act for both the Morgan and the Ilarriman interests. The fact of this buying was evidence of the satisfaction felt by both parties to the Northern Pacific contest over the ternis of settlement provided for by Mr. Morgan's action aside from the strong assurance felt of the strong personality of the board that a fair and satisfactory readjustment would be secured. The conviction that an early settlement of the Northern Pacific controversy was at hand, which permeated the market all the morning, was crystallized by the rather spectacular device of a sale of 2X) shares of Northern Pacific common stock on the board. The price was 11$. The mute record on the tape coming smoothly from the ticker with tho quotation Jumbled in with the routine transactions of the market was eloquent of the end of perhaps the most disastrous quarrel that ever unsettled values in Wall street. The last of the straggling transactions In the stock which followed the sale for $1.000 cash In the culmination of the corner In the panic of May 9 was mad on June 3, when the stock sold at IT, which was the settlement price offered by the Insiders to the shorts. Since that time the stock has disappeared from the market and there has not been even a nominal quotation for it. The reappearance of the stock on the tape was Immediately followed by a violent bound in prices. There were occasional pauses in the movement, but no notable recessions in prices. New buying ordtrs came into the market In successive Installments. The stocks of the railroads immediately affected were naturally the leaders in the movement, but the strength spread to other parts of the market, and all other considerations were ignored. A rumor that the strike will be settled within forty-eight hours entirely failed of corroboration, but the recovery In the Steel stocks continued without interruption. The news of the day pointed to additional recruits for the striking employes of the anthracite companies, but the early weakness in the coalers was wiped out and the stocks made buoyant advances over last night's level, extending in the case of Erie first preferred to 3'. The declaration of the first dividend on this stock of 14 per cent., presumably for the half yearly period, helped the advance, although there had been talk that the stock would be placed on a 4 per cent, basis from the outset. The extreme rise over last night in St. Paul reached 94. Union Paciric 77. Southern Pacific 4Vfc and Atchison 4a8- Rock Island rose 8 points in sympathy. There were many other advances in the railroad list and among the tractions of 2 to A2. the Southern, the Southwestern, trunk lines, coalers and less Important groups all being represented. Among the industrials and specialties United States Steel got 2 over last night, the preferred 2. Sugar 4VH, General Electric and Colorado Fuel 5H. North American 2 and Western Union and Amalgamated Copper 2U each. The strength in the corn market to-day ceased to Influence the stock market. Stocks closed strong and active near the top. Bonds became active and strong late in the. day In sympathy with stocks. Total sates at par value were $3.100,000.

Heavy Export Trade Ik the Principal Support of Wheat Hog Products Alio Are I'p a Little. CHICAGO. July 17. Export sales and foreign news were influential in advancing wheat prices to-day, September closing tf?34c higher. September corn closed He and oats '8c up. Provisions closed 2ic to 10c improved. A sharp advance at. Liverpool stimulated a local demand for wheat at the opening of the market, and September sold from CSic to l?c to "Aijlc over yester day's close. Reports of scattered local showers, however, soon started selling. Northwestern traders also sold and reported Improved conditions In the spring wheat country. A decline to öTU'&'ß'Hc ensued in consequence, although the market was not a weak one. It was, however, a nervous one, and a covering movement followed reports of damage to the French crop, September rallying to 6S8c. Another decline to 67'Ci67Räc followed, but reports of sixty-five loads taken for export, mostly for French account, it was said, turned the tide again, and the market closed firm, September 41lac higher at 67'ic. seaboard clearances in wheat and flour were equal to 541.000 bu. rri.Tiary receipts aggregated 1,116,000 bu, compared with 751,000 last year. Local receipts were 184 cars, 09 of contract grade. Minneapolis and Duluth reported 176 cars, against 1?9 last week and 1S1 a year ago. Reports from the Southwest regarding corn were generally sensationally bad, and the weather bureau report, while noting local showers In various localities, cair.e far from showing adequate relief. The market opened strong under a rush of buying orders. Feeling was extremely nervous, and a wire advising that there had been heavy rains in Iowa, together with a hopeful reading of the weather forecast, caused temporary weakness. A calm second thought as to the meaning of the forecast seems to have been influential in the rally which followed; it really had Indicated nothing on which to base hope of certain relief. The wheat strength, too, contributed to the bullishness. September sold between 50c and 31J8c and closed He higher at 5dc Receipts were 208 cars. Oats were fairly active, but prices depended on corn, a shortage in which would of course affect the value of oats as feed. September sold between Zlc and 32c and closed firm. Vc higher, at 3lc. Receipts were S6 carF. The speculative Interest in provisions was mall, but reports of improved export sales, together with fair support from local packers, caused an advance in prices, despite the liberal run of hogs. Fluctuations were narrow. September pork closed 10c, lard 24c ar.d ribs 5c higher. Estimated receipts to-morrow: heat. 270 cars; corn. 220; oats. 75; hos. 2D.IXK) head.

The American Wool and Cotton Reporter will say to-morrow of the wool trade: The market is stronger and more active. The Increased business has ben very unevenly distributed, however, a half dosen houses having transacted th bulk of the business. The trend cf the market c.n fine stock Is tdward a higher level and a better inquiry is noted for medium stock. Seme dealers report that It la Impossible to get higher prices, but cn fine wools betters prices certainly have been obtained than could have been secured two or three weeks ago. From the lowest point touched In the past year there has been a recovery of 2 to 4 cents per scoured pound, or. say. 4 to 10 per cent. The sales for the week in Boston amounted to 8.790,0C0 pounds domestic and 140,000 pounds foreign, making a total of 6.9:0.000 pounds against a total of 3.SS2.70O pounds for the previous week, and a total of 1,663.000 pounds for the corresponding week last year.

THE LIVE STOCK MARKETS

nnsT cattle nimc. a trifle better PRICES TIIAX OX TUESDAY. Horr Qniet and Five to Ten Cents Lower Sheep Active nnd Steady Condition of Other Markets. UNION STOCKYARDS. INDIANAPOLIS. July 17. Cattle Receipts. 900; shipments, 200. The marketing of cattle so far this week shows an lnereise of about 500 over the same time last week, and the receipts to-day were about the same as a week ago and 400 larger than a year ago. The proportion of strictly choice stock in the arrivals continues small, zr,d another large number of stockers and feeding cattle were received. The market cpened with seemingly a little better fteling for selected stock, and salesmen in some Instances were better rleased vvith psSces, but there was not enough Improvement to lend encouragement. The market for the less desirable cattle was about dull as it has been at any time, and in fact some dealers claimed that the common grades were lower than they have been at any time this season. Steers were reported as high as $5 1,300-lb grades, and 91$ to 1,131-lb Westerns brought $4.15'4.35. Native steers, averaging a little upwards of 1,100 lbs, sold at $1.50 3 4.75 as to quality. Heifers sold as high as $5. with good kinds at $1114.50. and Stockeis to decent heifers sold at $2'a390. A few cows sold above $4. but most of the supply was reported below $3.70. and it required a better class to bring $2.25?2.uO than heretofore.

Combined receipts of hogs for three days show a decrease of nearly 1,000, compared with the same time last week, and an Increase oX 1,500 over the corresponding time a year ago. The receipts to-day were nearly 2.000 smaller than a week ago. A very large proportion of the arrivals were light and medium mixed hogs. In keeping with discouraging reports from other markets the opening here was quiet and the bidding on a considerably lower basis than yesterday. Salesmen were reluctant in accepting prices offered, and from start to finish the trading was sluggish. Final sales Indicated that prices were 5c to 10c lower than yesterday, and the average looks to be a big 5c lower than the low time yesterday. Sales ranged from $5.7214 to $6, and were largely above $5.77Vi. with more at $5.80 than any other price.

Thus far this week the receipts of sheep and lambs have been liberal, the total showing a gain of 1,000 compared with the time last week, and the receipts to-day were barely as large as a week ago, but nearly 1.000 larger than a j'ear ago. A few more butchers were ln the market than f yesterday, but the demand was largely irom snippers ana tnerefore competition was not improved. The trading, however, was as active as expected under the circumstances, and for good stock generally steady prices compared with j'esterday were realized. Butchers paid as high as $5.50 for lambs, but $5.25 was practically the top. A large proportion of the supply sold at $5.00 and other sales ranged from $3:0 1-75. Yearlings sold at $3.75'??4. and common to good sheep brought $2.503.50.

What was lackine in quantity was made up in quality. It having Deen a long time since an equal number of as good horses has been offered in this market. The supply was about evenly di vided between workers and drivers, and they were just the kind to meet the requirements of the trade at this time. There was a good attendance of buyers, especially from Eastern and foreign points, and with active competition there was considerable animation in the bidding and the trading irom tne start was active at rather more satisfactory prices than those current a week ago. Dealers claimed, however, that, quality considered, there was not much quotable advance. A large number of harness horses sold from $15O?i200 per head and workers from $110175. High-acting coach teams sold as high as $500, and prime draft horses as high as $212.50. There was some little trade for Southern points, and agents are buying a few horses for Ene lish cavalry use. A good clearance was made early and the close was steady. Consignors to the market this week are Andy Schicketanz and Frank Schofleld of this city. J. W. Rooker. of Zionsvllle. Blake & Sheets, of Anderson. John G. Clark, of Westneld, Charles Decker, of Edlnburg, and John Vestal, of Plalnfield.

The supply consisted of stockers and feeders of only ordinary quality. There is no notloeable change ln the condition of the market Prices are considered steady on strictly prime cattle, but the demand for common stock is very indifferent, resulting in a dull and slow market for these kind. The veal market Is steady, with a demand greatly in excess of the suj.rly.

Derrles and Small Frnlts, Horrever, Are Scarce anil Poor Mnch Activity In New AVheat. A slightly lower temperature gave a little more life to trade yesterday, but in a majority of the lines of business summer dullness is the feature. On Commission row there is considerable activity, and trade would be at high tide if the commission merchants could get the goods to sell, but dry weather in the territory from which dealers expect to get their fruits and vegetables has so cut down receipts that It has seriously impaired business. The oldest commlselon merchants say they do not remember a year when similar conditions have existed in July. The shortage in supplies has enabled them to push up prices, and to-day many articks in the fruit and vegetable line are selling at unprecedentedly high prices for this season of the year. Irish potatoes, cabbage and onions are, comparatively speaking, ln light supply and the handlers experience some trouble in filling orders on the day they are sent in. Retail merchants at Indianapolis, however, fare a little better, as they have home gardeners to draw on for part of their supply. Prices are very firm at quotations. Wholesale grocers are having a good trade for July, sales of sugars, coffees, fish, salt and like articles being large. Present Indications favor renewal of the hostilities between the American sugar refinery and Arbuckle & Co. Arbuchles have bet p. five points belsw the American sugar prices for some time, and recently the American people have been quietly meeting the price without changing their card quotations, but yesterday the American company reducfd all soft grades of refined sugar live to ten points and all hard grades live points. In the meantime the price of Lion coffee has been reduced half a cent a pound, and on Monday this price was met by the Arbuckle people. Lion was then promptly reduced another half cent and Is now lower than the Arbuckle coffee. The flour market shows a little more activity, with no change in quotations. Canned goods and drkd fruits show no change ln prices or conditions. There Is some demand for prunes. Butter, eggs and cheese 11 rule firm if stock rs of a good grade. Higher prices for cheese need not be a surprise. Receipts of poultry are moderate and stocks from day to day keep well cleaned up. Prices remain much the same as for several days past. There is an increasing demand for provisions, and higher prices are expected to prevail owing to the grtat decrease in receipts of hogs. The local grain market shows considerable activity in wheat. All the roads centering here are being callfd on for cars to load with wheat. Grain lealers are uiprised over the light receipts of corn. The belief had prevailed that when the farmers had their wheat harvested and hay well protected the receipts of corn would largely increase, while ln fact they are lighter than a month ago. locally not ln years have such prices been paid for corn, and with such prices there is some trouble in keeping the local market supplied. The cercallne mills, of course, depend on shipments of corn in here for their supply, and they arc experiencing a great deal of trouble to keep their mills ln operation at half capacity.
