Fears tf frosts In the cornfields helped In a natural advance, but there was something of a manipulative aspect to trade that aroused a nervous dread In speculators who went short yesterday. In the other pits much the same conditions as prevailed of late were factors, poor grading, fair cash demand and weather fears. Wheat was aided materially by reduced receipts and lmmens3 exxort clearances. At the close September corn was l?;c higher, wheat Uc up, oats Uc, lower and provisions lic to lue higher. Cora ruled strong. At the outset there was a little offered and prices clipped momentarily. Hut a good demand set In and bulls let so of nothing save at good protits. Influential houses took on hl quantities of both September and December, while sellers who wanted to let go were only scattered. The coolness of the weather gave rise to some apprehension of frosts, and fear of that w;us augmented by dispatches from the interior which stated that frosts had already done some damage. This steadied December, and September, which needed only continued manipulation' to boost it, jumped upward rapidly. Yesterday's shorts covered and September sold from 5;uc to 5!Tc and closed lc up at 5ä?sC. Receipts were 41 cars, only iivo of contract grade. Leading elevator intere. !s were under wheat. September had a good buying support after the somewhat dull opening, and, although trade lapsed dull at times, business In general was good and the tone lirm. At the start cables wero lower. September opened ?8c to sc down. . at. TlffTlÜc. Corn strength started a reaction and a fair cash demand and export clearances in wheat and Hour equaling l.UJT.OeO bu put September to L'Uc The local crowd was Inclined to the bear side but changed front to some extent on fears of manipulation in the September option. Receipts Northwest were light and primary points were not reporting large arrivals. There was fair selling at the strong point and September slipped back to a barely firm close. 4c higher, at 7l"'ie. Iocal receipts were 310 cars, none of contract grade. Minneapolis and Duluth reported 1C cars, a total of 4v;. against Ü11 last week and 47- a year ago. Primary receipts wero fcCö.euO bu, compared with J..'L7,'U a year ago. . There was little interest in oats. The early lower prices in other grains started a decline and there was little rallying power to the market. September sold between Cc and CVi-c, and cloaed He lower at So';c. Provisions had pood strength on packers' support, particularly the nearer months. The outside sold the distant futures on a somewhat easy hog market and the slowness of the pit. September -pork closed 15c higher at $1.M; lard 7Vic up at J10.55. and ribs 74c higher at 510.1.. Estimated receipts for Monday: Wheat, 2 1 j cars; corn, 55 cars; oats, ears; hogs, CO.W'J head; hogs for the week, VMn). Leading futures ranged as follows: Articles.

WEEK IN WALL STREET

IT HAS MAIIKIM) 11Y VACIL LATIONS OF m:timkt. Wetikncss of the Ilnrly Iart CJciiernlly rcomt Inllneiice of .Ir. 3IorK mi's Return from Europe. NEW YORK, Aus:. 23.-The interest in to day's 5tock market was rather lanpuid. in pitc of sorne brisk operations on the part of speculative pools and a substantial in crease in the surplus reserves of the banks, which is usually made a signal for an upward movement of stocks. It did not escape notice, however, that the actual reserves of the banks failed to show the expected small improvement, the turn in the tide of the subtreasury operations having taken up entirely the contribution to the money market made earlier in the week. The con traction in the loans of $10, i00,lf0, shows that the funds which supplied the stock market during the week came from the trust companies and from proceeds of borrowings abroad, as had been supposed. The action of the banks in reducing their loan account is in expectation of the com ing demand from the interior which evident ly has set in for the season. The decision to postpone the dissolution of the Southern Railway voting; trust by refraining from the declaration of the dividend on the pre ferred stock had only a slightly depressing effect on that company's stocks, as it is supposed to be a step towards the com pletion of the arrangement with the L. & N. Colorado Fuel was erratic and became weak after an early advance. The newlyarrived operator whose buying advanced Southern Pacific published extensive announcements to explain the faith that was in him, and the demand for Pennsylvania was supposed to come from the same source. The moderate advances that followed these movements and the publication of the bank statement met selling to realize, and the market closed Irregular. A somewhat vacillating sentiment regarding the speculative outlook has been reflected by the lluctuations of the prices in the stock market during the'week. Conlidence has continued unabated over the prosperity of the general conditions in the country, but solicitude has been manifested at different times over the resources of the money market to carry the present expanded credits through the period of expanded circulation of money in the country. The return to New York of J. 1'. Morgan, after an extended vacation, caused a rise of speculative animation, which was followed by sharp reactions. As there has been speculation for some time past over the expected developments to follow Mr. Morgan's return, and as those developments were not announced immediately, the realizing of profits was a natural consequence, according to the custom of speculative buyers. There can be no doubt that there are settlements outlined of important problems which have awaited Mr. Morgan's approval and advice, and which will have important effect on linancial affairs, but the hopes professed In speculative quarters of the rapidity and scope of these decisions were somewhat absurd. It is evident, also, that the speculation has already partly, if not wholly, discounted the effect of some of these projects. The belief that the anthracite coal miners' strike would be Immediately settled by Mr. Morgan's presence was naturally disappointed. The faith is strong in Wall street, however, that the end of this struggle is approaching, and that the suspension of mining is not likely to extend into the season's demand for winter supplies. The undecided situation In which L. & X. has remained ever since the passage of control in the speculative buying of the stock in the open market and the subsequent deposit of the stock with J. P. Morgan & Co. for settlement, is not likely to endure much longer. Efforts to discount this settlement have been an important Influence In the market, not only on that stock, but in the whole Southern field, as it is expected that a comprehensive readjustment of railroad relations in that field will be involved. The entry of the St. Louis & San Francisco Into that field is supposed to enter into the final settlement, and the movements of the Gould stocks have suggested the possibility that they alto are involved. It is evident, also, that the situation caused by the Impairment of the health of the president of the United States Steel Corporation commanded the early attention of the leading spirit in that combination. Mr. Morgan's assumption of the direction of the far-reaching affairs which he commands was therefore an important incident in the financial world and was clearly reflected In the stock market. There was r.lso an easier tone developed in the money market, after a slight Hurry on Monday as a consequence of the unfavorable bank statement of last Saturday. The source of the relief to the money market was not obvious. It was alleged at first to be du? to funds attracted from the Interior by the higher rates prevailing here, but this view was regarded with skeptisicm. In view of the active money markets of the interior and the transfer of some funds from Xew York to interior points. The more likely explanation was that the New York trust companies were placing loans in the local market, and thus relieving the pressure on the clearing house banks. There were also furiher large transfers of credits to foreigners early in the week, but as the money rate here relaxed the forelcn exChange rate hardened and the offerings of finance bills in the exchange market diminished markedly. The fact that a further 20 per cent. Installments subscriptions on tho $100.(X'..xJ British loan becomes due on Sept. 4, the talk of an early issue of a Transvaal loan in London and the report that the French government will issue soon a new lean of $2t,000,NX were additional inlluences in hardening the exchange market, in which the short interest is now very large. London also sold stocks here steadily all week. The bond market was unsettled this week. The reduction of the yearly interest disbursements on the Central of Georgia first income bonds from 5 to 3 per cent, resulted in active liquidation. The general market has been irregular and the only important dealings were the speculative issues. United States new fours and old fours advanced the twos and th6 lives 4 per cent., as compared with the closing call of last week.

Saturday's statement of the treasury balances In the general fund, exclusive of the $150,W,oöO gold reserve in the division of redemption, shows: Available cash balance $204,714.661 Gold 107,753,307 Higher Money nates Expected, TGranger Farwell & Co.'s Telegram. NEW YORK, Aug. 23. The week's developments have not been of a nature to induce buying of stocks for a further rise. Business has turned from bonds and dividend-payers into low-priced stocks which have a future. The cliques may have to carry such stocks through a 6 per cent, money period, maybe longer. The market should be stronger on Monday, giving people who have profits a chance to take them. "WEEKLY IIAXK STATEMENT. Increnne In Snrplns Due to Decrease In the Loan Account. NEW YORK, Aug. 23.-The weekly statement of averages of the associated banks hOWS the following changes: Loans, decrease $10, 400,100 Deposits, decrease ll,H76t"Oo Circulation, increase 309.M Legal tenders, decrease 1,101.500 Specie, increase 724.1-ejO Reserves, decrease 377,3" Reserves required, decrease 2.954.050 Surplus, increase 2,616,750 The banks now hold $3,743,350 In excess of reserve requirements under the 23 per cent. rule. The Financier says: "The striking feature of the official statement of the New York associated banks last week was the reduction of $10,460,100 in loans. This was most likely in part due to the calling in of loans by some of the banks which desired, thereby, to rectify their position as regards reserves, but it was probably largely caused by tho cancellation by borrowers of large syndicate loans, which had been recently negotiated and which have tended materially to Increase the loan account of the banks In recent weeks. The cash changes shown by the official statement of the banks again fail to correspond with the estimates bascxl on the traceable movements of money during the week, these estimates showing a gain of JC15.100 in cash, while the official statement indicates a net loss of $377.3' "0 specie having been increased $724.200, while legal tenders were decreased $1,101,100. Deposits were reduced $ll,976.2n0, an amount greater by $l,13i,S00 than that called for by the decrease of loans and the net loss of cash; therefore the statement is technically out of proof. The required reserve was reduced $2.904.050 through the decrease In deposits. Deducting therefrom the net loss of $377,300 in cash, leaves r-'.ClC.750 as the increase surplus reserves, which item now stands at :.713.350. against $18.14S,100 at the corresponding date last year. The statement was probably made on 5lightly declining average.- for cash, the translers of currency through the subtreasury to New Orleans and Cincinnati and the direct movement of money by the banks to the South having been the largest after the middle of the week. The circulation shows an increase of $.mSOo, following a gain in the previous week of $224, indicating that the banks are responding to the current demand for money fur crop purposes by augmenting the volume of their circulating notes. The daily average of bank clearings for the week was $2:,'0,(i0. This shows a slight increase compared with the previous return, which indicated a dally average of $225.0 ). . K and the gain was probably due to shifting of accounts incident to settlement for the Oregon Shortllne bonds. The statement is. on the whole, fpuite ' encouraging, indicating, in the reduction of loans, " a conservative policy by the banks. Borrowers do not appear to have been Inconvenienced by this policy, the trust companies and banks in neighboring cities liberally responding to the increased demand for money." Peimlons for Veteran.
