IIcnTlPNt SI a nip I In Corn, but Wheat I u ttoe Second Oiitu Down, ProiiNlous Strud.

CHICAGO, July 23. With the drought broken the corn market to-day led a downward movement participated in by the other cereals. Wheat, with other bearish factors contributing to the weakness.

eloped 2c lower for September delivery. Corn closed -"c down and oats lTac depressed. Provisions closed a tritle higher, except for lard. In corn there was but one considerationrain. After weeks of contemplation of a sizzling hot-weather map, unrelieved by rain from one week's end to another, the long Interest in corn came Into the pit believing that a fair part of the crop might be saved, and proceeded immediately to unloading with avidity. September was 4Uoted from Iie to 54c, or l?c to Z'&Zq under Saturday's closing price. There was little else to the trade save liquidation, which has continued with considerable activity, to noon, whei'e there was a perceptible decrease in offerings. The price was kept well under 54c, following the opening, although there was a fair amount of covering by traders who had had the courage to sell short when prices were at their best. During the afternoon September was forced to l2tC, and although there was a sharp rally to 527c, the tap of the gong announcing the close found the market weak and nervous, September at 527c. a net loss for the day of 21itt2-Sc. Receipts were 210 cars. A potent combination worked to lower wheat values, and prices, nearly all day, were close to the bottom level. The corn break was, of course, the chief factor, but weak cables and bearish statistics formed an array which, together, were almost equally weakening. September opened 34rq Vc lower, at ÜL'c to Ca2c. Liquidation continued till the market, having experienced no rally of consequence, touched UTr. This was near the end of the session, and reports of export buying and an allegation that hail and rain had injured the Northern crop created sufficient apprehension among shorts, v hose members had been greatly augmented during the day, to cause covering, under which September rallied to 6TTc. The close was weak, 2c under Saturday, at 6S?iC. Exporters reported 32 loads taken. Seaboard clearances were 565,0u0 bu. Primary receipts were I.Söö.Oih) bu, compared with 1,2!,000 last year. Local receipts wre 206 ccrs, 13t of contract grade. Minneapolis and Duluth reported 332 cars, against 4u4 last week and 270 a year ago. World's shipments last week were y.&xi.Cw) bu. and the quantity on passage showed an Increase of o,032.i00 bu. In the oats pit selling was on a heavy scale for country account, the influence being the corn weakness. September opened from o3c to 32c, and almost instantly reacted from the low point to 33:iic. Thereafter the market ranged well under 33c and closed weak V.iUlc lower, at 32T8c. Receipts were 2 It) cars. Provisions remained in the neglected position into which they have fallen during the grain excitement. The opening was easy on the heavy hog market, but prices steadied later on buying for packers. Fluctuations were narrow. September pork clostd 5c higher, at 114.20. laid a shade lower at $3.55. and ribs unchanged at $7.S7Vfe. Estimated receipts to-morrow Wheat, 550 cars; corn, 270; oats, Z'm; hogs, 18,00) head. Leading futures ranged as follows:

The IlooW of ;eiieI Compared to Teiinj ou4) "Idyls of the Iviiie." The Outlook. In our judgment the Book of Genesis is a collection of ancknt tnulitipus, some of them c rtainly not of Hebraic origin, which were rewritten by an unknown prophet lor the purpose of impartin?,' to them a spiritual Htrniricance anl niakir.g tiiem tlu vehicles of u spiritual le ssun. TIk' relation of (Jenesis to these ancient historic traditions is somewhat arrtki.ius to the relation of Tennyson's "Idyls of the Kini;" to the ancient Arthurian legends of English history. If a professor of English literature were tt aching Tennyson's "Myls of the Kinsr" to a class cf youn;r pupils he would spend very little time, proli.ibly none at all. in considering: tluir rtlatin t the ancient legendary material of which the poet inado use. It' a pupil asked him. "Are these? idyls founded on fact?" he would reply. "Tluy arA. f (Minded on legend, and how much of fact tlute is in the legend we cannot now t'll." He would th-n return to the poems themselves to point out their beauty of diction and their ethical and spiritual 5inHkance. This is the cuurf- which we should advise any teacher of Genesis to pursue.

NEW YORK, July 3. The way In which the stock market acted this morning servo!

to dish the hopes of the bulls among the tralers who had indulged a hope that some accession of speculative interest would result from the fr.vorinsr factor over Sundiy. For two Mondays past the market has had to face an aecurr.ul uion of discouraging factors which resulted in selling down p-ices within the first hour of trading to what proved to bo the low point of the week. This n-orning". in contrast, there was the news of rains in the corn belt, about which there was no dispute, for the first time, as to their extent and beneficial character. There was, besides, the news of negotiations ard consultations between the representatives cf the United States Steel Corporation and the Amalgamated Association, looking to the settlement oZ the strike. The opening of the negotiations gave strong1 hope cf an early settlement. The simultaneous sales of United States Steel at the opening were of C5.000 shares at an extreme advance of 2 points, and a large number of the stocks thus benefited were Norfolk fc Western, Chesapeake & Ohio, Pennsylvania, Baltimore &. Ohio, New York Central, several of the coalers, the Chicago .& Alton stocks, Hocking Valley, a number of the Southern and Southwestern railroad stocks, Colorado Fuel, American Tobacco and North American. As a device for awakening interest in the market this was a failure. The opening rush to buy was all that brought the day's aeahngi above the level of activity prevailing during the latter part of the week. When the room traders attempted to take their proiits at the end of the day prices crumbled away and only a few stocks had

anything left to show but fractional net gains at the closing, which was dull and lu'avy. The bond market was dull and irregular but rather mors diversified than last Wtek. Total sales, at par value, were $1,415,M. United States bends were all unchanged on the last call. Following are the day's share sales and

UNION STOCKYA11DS. INDIANAPOLIS, July 29. Cattle Receipts, Col); shipments small. The receipts of cattle were conFhlerably larger tnan the average at this time in the week, and the different grades were fairly represented. There were no strictly top native cattle in the arrivals, but a lew good kinds sold generally at steady prices compared with thgse current at the eloe of last week. Steers avei aging 1.2S1 pounds sold at $5.00, luifers at 5-.0G'if 4, cows at $2&3.4i), bulls at $:.13 and calves at $1.73 'y 3.75. Tiie arrivals of quarantine cattle included ten loads that were Letter than any represented here before this season, and were probably as good as expected at this time in the year. There was not much competition, but buyers were inclined to pay about steady prices, and a very good clearance was made on that basis. The offerings included 1,052 to 1,105-pound kinds, with six loads averaging 1.0S7 pounds at $1.40. Quotations:

There was a very mederate supply of hogs for the market to-day, ard on that account it is difncult to make a comparison of the market wKh the ciose of last week. There was net enough to establish a range in prices for any grade, and, of course, there was more or less speculation as to what the ba.is of pi ices would have been with a more liberal supply. Local packers were not much iu evidence in the market, but with a few shipping orders the supply changed hands early. Most dealers claimed that sales were loqlöc lower than Saturday's closing prices, and the average could be considered about l-'lc lower. Assorted hogs weighing 214 pounds Fold at $5.63, and it seemed to b3 the general opinion that $5.70 would have been the top for a heavier class of equal quality, but it is barely possible that strictly fancy butcher hog's would have sold as high as $5.75. Mixed hogs averaging 173 to 211 pounds sold at 55.521'! 5.571, and one load averaging 1W pounds and including several big roughs sold at $.".50, which was the low price of the day.

Sheep Receipts. 120; shipments none. There was a i-mall supply of sheep and lambs on sale, and, as usur.l at this time In the week, the market was quiet at quotably unohangel prices. Reports from certain Eastern markets this morning are more tavorable, but neighboring markets are lower, and it does not appear that there will ha any material improvement in prices here in the near future. Of cour.-e, however, conditions will depend largely on the Quantity and quality of the stock received, and with small supplies of good stock it is possible that salesmen can recover a part of the lus.s sustained in prices last week. Lambs sold to-day at ?3.S3fr4 and sheep at $'i-2.5 there being no strictly top kinds represented.

A Flightly mo.k rated tempern ture gave a little more life to trade yesterday on the wholesale streets and on Commission row. Rains in the West have brightened the situation somewhat. While there is no doubt that damage has been done to growing crops by the hot. dry weather, there also is no doubt that part of the excitement in the condition f affairs has been due to a speculative desire to make the best of the situation. Corn and oats have been higher than for years and an Impression prevails among: the cooler heads that now the drought is broken prices also will break. The rains affected other markets as well, especially fruits and vegetables. While locally there has been no rain of consequence, in different parts of the State and in Illinois, Ohio and Kentucky, as well, territory which supplies this market with fruits and vegetbles, rain has fallen and the commission merchants will have less grounds to complain of short crops and to demand higher prices. The grocery market was more active. Traveling salesmen brought in good orders tor Saturday for this season of the year. Refined sugars have gone a week without a change, !nd coffees in the local markets sell for the same figures as a week ago. Canned goods are stronger than for a long time. Tom;itoe.4 have shown especial vigor and have advanced, while peas are strong with a tendency upward. Anxiety is felt lest the tomato patches will suffer by re.ison of the dry weather. On Commission row fome very fine peaches are now offered and on increasing arrivals prices are easier. Watermelons and canteloupos are arriving in large .jumtities, but a good demand supports the market and prevents decided decline. ;reen corn is yet In moderate supply. The home-grown is dry and undesirable. In tropical fruits lemons are in excellent demand, with prices strong, and oranges are few in number and very :-tmnr in price. Choice butter commands full prices and is not abundant. Cheese is lirm

in price and not plentiful. Good exx command top (juotations and are scarce, but unsalable; inferior stock is abundant. Poultry is quiet, with demand rather slow. Farmers are not sending much stock forward and not much activity is expected until prices are lower. Jlog products are in

active, re-quest lor domestic use, rnit export traflic is slow. Iron and hardware dealers report trade showing a little more activity. Hides are dull and prices easier. Leather Is fairly active, with prices steady, a tendency to an advance having passed cver. Little is doinK' in the tlry goods market. The same remark will apply .o the trade of confectioners. The local grain market Is showing more activity. Receipts of wheat and corn are increasing, but :-tiIl fall below the exooctations of f:r,ain merchants and millers. Local Inspections are large. Hay is advancing in price and some choice hay sold on th wacpr.n market yesterday at $14. The week opened with track bids on the cereals ruling as follows as reported by the secretary of the Board of Trade: Wheat No. 2 red, .r.'c trak; No. 2 red", f.3Uc on milling freight; No. S red, Ci'.iqC2Ji track; waKon. c.
