NEW YORK LETTEE. New York, June S. The stock ket displayed wonderful recuperative i,t,wr ,i.s;i,a 0,hihitCH in the London market. Prices started i the day a shade higher throughout tr e list. In the railway group, Union Pacific was the conspicuous leader. It scored an advance of about a point and one-half due chiefly to the report in circulation that the president had come out openly and confessed his error in regard to the Sherman law. It is said that the president is now of the opinion that the Union-Southern Pacific alliance is not contrary to the law as construed at the present time. This announcement had a very beneficial effect upon the entire roster. The Hill shares, Northern Pacific, Great Northern and the Ore stocks enjoyed a slight boom, more in sympathy with the general strength in the market than anything else. Copper advanced from S6 to 87 on short covering and a better demand for the actual metal. This, however, may be only temporary. The fact remains and it will become more emphatic in the near future that the metal market is in an inflated condition. Copper is held at 25 cents per pound more through manipulation than the order of supply and demand. The bank statement was about what the trade expected. There was a large loss noted in the deposit item due in the main to the large gold exports during the last week. The market upon the whole closed strong with advances varying from one to two points recorded throughout the list. MARKET Descp. Atchison .". Do pfd .. Am. Sugar Am. Car ., Amal. Cop. Am. Smelt . Am.

CHICAGO LETTER Chicago Jun .8. WHEAT The market today appeared mostly an evening up affair and although fluctuating within a range of over 2c. it lacked the snap so prevalent earlier In the week. After a rather weak and nervous opening there was a steady and nearly con tinuous advance until the clos which was at about the best prices of the session. There was no startling news to cause the change of sentiment with the exception of the Kansas crop report which proved less than three points higher than the unofficial prediction of yesterday, but in addition showed 21 per cent, of area plowed up. This Indicates a crop of about 47,000,000 bu. -5 on the popular method of figuring- and j about 55,000,000 bushels by placing par yield for Kansas as extreme high figure. The Michigan report makes wheat condition 70 against 74 in May. Cash sales were 50,000 bushels. .The strength in December and May was the feature in corn. Buying support was good and of the same sterling character as yesterday. Crop reports were generally unsatisfactory and

d Provi

weather mainly cloudy and too wet and I cool. Michigan report makes corn con-

mar-llitlon against 90 a year ago. Crop that state last year 61,000,000 bushels. I OATS Were lower for a few minutes

early on general commission selling I but the market rallied at once, giving every indication that yesterday's sell2 lg was overdone. The close was strong at nearly the top figures for the day. Cash sales 150,000 bushels'; Provisions showed a little strength but trade exceedingly light. PItODlCn MARKETS. Chicago, June 8. Tho poultry market continues unsettled. Arrivals were again liberal and despite the recent decline buyers did not manifest any eagerness in picking up the offering's. The butter market was easy. There was a fair shipping inuuiry and local consumption was 01 liberal proportions, but the offerings wre more than ample to fill all requirements. For old potatoes the market was weak. Offerings were heavy and demand tair. New potatoes, however, were scarce and sold readily at outside prices. There were 11 cars of strawberries on the market. Peddlers were good buyers despite the disagreeable weather and prices showed little change. Butter Receipts, 7.553 tubs.

BY EXCLUSIVE WIRE TO THE LAKE COUNTV TIMES

HEARD ON THE BOURSE Marshall Spader We have not recently been expecting more than a lair rally in the market and this appears to be in progress at this writing with some gain yesterday In undertone and strength. Miller & Co. Of course confidence is a thing of slow growth The circumstances are such, however, as to warrant the belief in a gradual higher tefltlency, during the Interim of which there re no signs wanting of accumulation of securities by the larger Interests. This is all very well for superficial fluctuations and market movements but it does not change the congested condition of the bond market or prevent the gold exports or the appear ance of anotherunfavorable bank state ment all of which are more important factors making up the larger and broader views market wise. T. A. Mclntyre & Co. say: As a matter of fact the only change in the situation has been the talk from Washington which indicates a hesitancy on the part of Uie president in regard to taking up the matter of rrosecuting Mr. Harriman owing to apprehension that if such action is taken now it might create much worse impressions and hint bufiness generally throughout the country. Dick Bros. The market seems to promise Improvement although it is likely that there will be more or less irregularity and possibly some reactions during the next few days on account of the likelihood of a poor bank statement on Saturday and a roor crop report on Monday. We think that reactions during those few days should be taken advantage of to' make conservative purchases. Bartlett, Frazier & Co. The fact that the bulls have taken profits on every upturn and have without doubt realized freely since that the bureau is In favor of the technical position. Willi the spindles of the world going full time and wanting at least 13 million bales and with a crop outlook pointing to a yield much under this figure, we see nothing to it but a materially higher level of values. Genoa Trading on the local bourse was suspended yesterday owing to the heavy losses involved In the monthly settlement amounting to about $2,400,000. The suspension of operations was followed by the announcement -that the brokers declined to transact any further business thus creating an exceptional position.. The newspapers are asking the government to intervene. It ia expected that operations . on bourses in other cities will be suspended today. St. Paul The United States circuit court today handed down its opinion on the bill of exceptions filed by the Standard Oil company in the suit of the government for the dissolution of the corporation. The ruling was against the company. The trust must answer the portions of the bill to which exceptions were taken by the first Monday of July. The earnings of the Minneapolis, SL Paul and Sault Ste. Marie railroad company have made striking: gains in May over the corresponding month last year, the gain in gross for the month was 29.5 per cent and from July 1 last, 10.3 per cent. This- Is all the more notable from the fact that . for two months and a half the company was unablo to move a wheel on account of the heavy snow and generally bad weather in its territory.
