NEW YORK LETTER. New York, July 15. Early prices on tht; stork exchange showed gains varying from one to two points in the active list With Union Pacific, St. Paul, Smelt-rs, Copper, Southern Pacific, Atchison, Reading, New York Central and iViin.sy Ivania ail enjoying the short lived boom. Th-n; was more or less manipulation in (villi -!... Tiarticularly so i'i CoMx r. St. I'aul and Union Pacitic. It is surmised that tin; lare orders to buy and .sell (:i''Ir t-manated Uoslon and were executed in thi.s both from markt t with the idea f securing a public allowing if poSMbiC. Copper alvaimii to 02 1 late afternoon declined to Union Pacific sold up to 112 ut In the under 90; ! and back to 111. The decline in Union Pacific in the last half hour of the session was the means of bringing about a reaction in the general list. The rumor of a call for 20 per cent of the. underwriting of Union Pacific's $7 3,000,000 bond issue threw cold water on what at the time looked to be a bull market. This announcement caused general selling as It i-hows there is no demand for bonds and the present advance in fctoeks Is in a measure artificial. The gossip in the street as to Saturday's bank statement was unanimously if the opinion that there was a great deal of manipulation indulged in. The changes in the various items were so drastic and so unaccountable that It was almost Impossible to accept the statement as an accurate one. The call loan market continues easy, Ihe highest rates for the day were only A2, while the lowest were 3 per cent. Nevertheless, a great deal of apprehension is expressed over the money situation. Fears of a stringency when crops begin to move has a tendency to argue for caution among stock operators. The market closed erratic, gains over Saturday's prices were established In one or two stocks, others closing at about the same. HEN YORK STOCK MARKET Open 11 123 44 yo , 1 1 y H . 5S

WHEAT There were periods of depression and others of strength throughout the session. September wheat had a range of about two and one-half cents, selling as high as 93 li and as low as 93. Tho temper of tlii? market was nervous and erratic, every little item of news influencing prices up or down. Sentiment on the market seems to be rather mixed. While there are many traders who are pronouncedly bullish, they argue the price looks too high in the nineties, while tho.se that re bearish become nervous whenever they got short a line of wheat and bad crop news from the northwest appears, this starts them to covering at the advance. Fine rains throughout the northwest with a more optomistic feeling as to the outlook for the growing crop was one of the bear factors. New wheat beginning to arrive from the northwest aiso aided the

i ili--r.-(ifc;iii,n' Urolilntr return frr.m thrit section are still reported rather conflicting. Sections where large returns were estimated do not come up to expectations while in others it is even better than the estimates. Foreign markets were quoted a shade lower. Cash demand disappointing. The market closed with a little spurt from the low prices, still the undertone was weak. CORN Ruled lower on the fine weather and general selling by commission and cash houses. Iowa is reporting too much rain which will make the corn crop backward. The market lost about three-eighths of a cent on the day's trading. OATS This grain declined fractionally In sympathy with the other grain pits. The news continues as bullish as ever. A large number of crop experts who have been touring the country, returned to this city today and are more emphatic than ever in the belief that the oat crops will be a short one. I'KOnrCI-l MARKETS. Chicago, July 15. A better feeling existed in the market for new potatoes.

HEARD ON BOURSE. The market will probably continue irregular to the end of the week, but we are inclined to look for improvement in the near future.

At the Waldorf last night some of the brokers close to the insiders were talking of a big jump in Union Pacific, 147 being predicted by the middle of next week. Good yearly statement ami no action by the interstate commerce commission. Union Pacific new convertible bonds on ine listing touay advanced above the subscription price on the buying by shorts, who could not get the certificates . for delivery. This market is morj than dangerous for the shorts. The big prolits will be made on the long side. The independent companies are offering copper at 22 cents and at that price tor tne metal. Anaconda ought to earn about CO per cent on its stock; it is paying 28 per cent, and the dividend would have been increased if it had not been for the Washington "trust busting" program. The government report on grain, taken in connection with the present prices for corn, oats and wheat, and the undoubted shortage of grain in Europe, can mean only one thing for America, and that is continued increase in railroad earnings, and incidentally higher prices for stocks. The easing in call money would indicate that the strain on the banks was practically over and still lower rates are looked for next week. It is expected that the bank statement will make an unfavorable showing, as the known movements of money indicate a net loss in cash of about $6,500,000. The effect on the reserve will be very much modified by decreases in loans and deposits and tho situation should materially improve next week. There was some bull talk based on the ease in call money Saturday and on an expected favorable construction of the interstate commerce committee on the Harriman roads. Interests of more important character than the room traders, without making any statement of their market position, had changed their attitude immediately after the conference between the president and the Japanese ambassador and the announcements made ' after that conference yesterday aro regarded as the real incentive for the improved sentiment today. London did nothing in this market and few of the arbitrage brokers sent any cables to the other side. Government bonds unchanged. Railroad and other bonds irregular.
