Strone Market in Stocks—uiould Buying to Head Off Va.n- derbilt. Chicago. Sppolnl to the Glob«. Chicago, Aug. I.—As a whole it has been rather a featureless week in the Chi- cago markets, with such topics as may be called of general interest only entering the market yesterday. Reference is had to the cock and bull story of hot wheat iv Chicago elevators, a wholly unreliable report pub- lished in a yesterday morning's paper, with- out other warrants lor its truthfulness than the word of a single interested party, and given additionally wide circulation by tele- graphic correspondents. On 'change here the effect was temporarily depressing, but after the first depression, during which there was much marveling at the audacity and brazen-facedness of the scheme to break down the market, values recovered somewhat their former tone of steadiness. The whole proceeding is now looked on as a hatched-up scheme, audit was unofficially stated that the willing tool in the disgrace- ful proceeding will hnd himself debarred from the privileges of the Chicago board. Subsequent conlidence was, in a large measure, restored by liberal purchasers by representative houses. Speculative values, in the main, may be said to have hinged during the last six days on crop reports. These have come in. in extraordinary volume, from about every county be- tween Maine and Mexico, and have been alternately good, bad and in- different. Nor can it be said that they have all been TKUTIIFUL BEHBABSAU of actual facts. A few of them doubtless were. Some certainly were not, as was il- lustrated in the case of a well-known poli- tician on the board, who received some very depressing Intelligence from Milwaukee relative to Northwestern crops, mentioning to other parties the source of his authority. A few days later the alleged "source" was on'change here and denied in to to any knowledge of the dispatches. These facts simply go to show the dearth of legitimate causes for a varying market and illustrate to what straits both bull and bear are put in order to make a living through speculative fluctuations. After the week's fluctuations, yesterday found cash wheat J£c lower, August and September each %c off from prices current a week ago. While trade has been on a liberal scale, no large lines have been permanently covered in or put out. It has been a mar- ket on which most houses have been more than content to take as low as M per cent. profit, turning the deal over again on any show of a profit. It Is probable, however, hat in the aggregate there has been more stuff sold than bought, and that the present crop talk on the bad side is to bear the mar- ket sufficiently to show a profit. COHNEi: CULMINATES The corner in July oats culminated yes- terday, after a decline of 2c per day fot the past two days. The close was 8c under the highest point at which they sold during the week —the difference between 2Gc and 34c. Toward the latter part of the weak they began coming in so liberally that the price could not be sustained. At best it was a small-sized corner, with only a few shorts .to take expensive property. The provision deal, which has shown inactivity for weeks past, continues in a, lethargic state and promises nothing for the .immediate future. Cash stuff is very sparingly handled. August and September pork show a decline of Be since last Friday. Judging by bank clearings, general business may be called better. There is a satisfactory increase all around, though rates for money are easy and by no means firmly held at the quotations below. In the leading markets to-day there were elements of a little more strength than weakness, with values correspondingly im- proved. This was owing jointly to an entire restoration of confidence in the con- dition of wheat stored in Chicago houses, and to light receipts, those at this point being only moderate, while outside points showed a like falling off—St Louis, for in- stance, receiving 52.000 bushels, against 122,000 bushels this day a year ago. The session was SHORT AXD ACTIVE, with values beeping within a very mrxlerat** range. Wheat opened stronger this moru- intr. with operators baying considerable September wheat to get even on the Au- gust deal. The hot wheat canard of yes- terday caused a great deal of selling of Au- gust, aud a great many operators found themselves short on the deal. At the monthly settlement this morning it was lound that the great bulk of the wheat had gone to Armour and Eggleston. About -J. 000.000 bushels was delivered. The firmness in pork also helped the market, which was farther aided by the takinjr of about fourteen boat loads of wheat at New York forexport. There was rather less crop news on the floor to affect the mar- ket than on yesterday, and such moderate speculative Inquiry that the most active options only fluctuated )ic The course, however, was quite steadily upward. The close was quiet and steady. >'o. 2 sprius? sold at 87J^c cash. The market bulls hard and reacts with consider- able easiness. There is. in fact, little or nothing in sight for the bulls to work on. Shorts cut little or no figure, traders aiming to keep about even on the market, while speculative inquiry is light.

New York* Special to the Globe. New Yokk, Aug. 1. —At ibe stock ex- change the market opened }{<&% wv cent higher for some stocks and 3i@l per cent, lower for others. The latter was for Jersey Central, which to-day defaulted on its August interest. The market sold up a fraction and then declined Vsj-.; percent*, and became very dull and heavy. It looks as though the July boom in stocks had departed with the month of July, al- though it is not improbable that St. Paul. Lake Soon, and a few practically cornered stocks may be spasmodically lifted a few points, to enable large holders to unload. Last year there was just such a booming, and after that the market resumed its natural and wonted level. This annual summer upheaval seems to be Mr. Vander- bilt's harvest time, and this year lie lias made a larger haul than usual. During the afternoon St. Paul lost a point and North- western 5* per cent. Lake shore was quite strong and rose to 71^, falling back again, however, with the general decline. New York Central was apparently left alone, Jersey Central whipped around in a lively way, and so did Missouri Pacific, Both were weak and strong alternately, with weakness the prevailing condition. Western Union lost a point and Pacilic .Mail sold down 1 M per cent from last night's closing. Gould was said to be buying Ore- gon Transcontinental to head off Vander- bilt. It will not be strange if these two champions lock horns for a desperate strug- gle before the present deal ends. If .Mr. Vanderbilt thinks he can have his own way in the New York stock market, or that he can go through the country like an auto- cratic czar, changing the railroad map at will, ho will find that he has reckoned en- tirely without his host The more success- ful he is, apparently, tho more enemies and rivals he will have. As the day closed the I tone was rather linn, there was less pres- sure to sell and many stocks recovered a great part of the early depression. There was little in the way of rumors cal- culated to affect prices either way, and brokers began to desert the exchange for the different resorts one hour before the gong struck. The market is now in a con- dition when sales on any bulge will proba- bly be the correct caper, and on the declines purchasers for the long account will be prolitable.

I.— For the closed ay of the week there has been a very fair volume ' of business, while the apparent movement of goods for all interior markets reflects a good volume of sales as having been completed. In fact, tho business for the week has boon good in all seasonable specialties, but plain cotton goods have been more quiet.
