New crop ad vanced 10 to 12 points from the opening within fifteen minutes after the report was published. August held steady around 11.80. Offerings were light and scattered.

Re ports from our own Northwest were of a favorable character, but these were lost sight of by r the trade, who seemed to have oversold the market and were* endeavoring to veer matters around into healthier channels. Futures at Liver pool were reported as higher, while spot wheat in that market was %d@ld higher. Yesterday's easier American cables and favorable crop reports were offset in the Liverpool market by ex pected lighter world s shipments and a better call from the Continent. While harvesting on the Continent is well un der way. offerings of new wheat were reported as light Northwestern re ceipts were light, but exceeded those of th© same day last year. Further and pronounced strength was displayed by corn at the opening to-day on a good demand for this cereal. While light rains were reported in a few sections they were in all cases In adequate and in unimportant corn ter ritory. Oats followed corn, but poor thresh ing returns also proved a factor of strength fn this market Provisions ruled higher in the pit with the strength in corn and the higher hog market.

Carpenter & Co., says: “I think we will have a good trading market for the next week with an upward tendency in prices. Would buy stocks on any fair recession, pre ferring active issues like Union Pacific, Copper and Steel. Hear rumor that there may be a decision handed down against Reading within the next few days, but would buy this issue on any break, as a decision against the compa ny would mean segregation and ulti mately higher prices." * • • The New York Financial Bureau says: "Information channels favor profit-tak ing. Sentiment in well informed quar ters continues conservatively hopeful, and under all the circumstances would look for buying opportunities in tlhe stocks well protected by earnings, with the intention to secure moderate prof its.” • • * United States Steel unfilled tonnage for July is expected to show a decrease of about 400,000 tons. • • • Dispatches from Montreal say that Canadian Pacific directors have practi cally decided on 1 per cent additional dividend for common stock in August. • • • Pennsylvania system's June earnings net $1,252,000 less than June, 1912. Six months net aggregate $4,026,000 decrease from the same period during 1912. • • • The market is inclined to be quiet with a sagging tendency, due more to dull ness than other causes. The reports of damage to the corn crop are making many people hesitate about making new commitments, but believe we will find these have been largely exaggerated. The short interest is being encouraged and has been increased this week. On any decided weakness we are of the opinion that stocks are a purchase. G. D. Potter. LIVE STOCK MARKET.
