Cereals Have Setback Due To Jtain And Cold Weather. SEPTEMBER WHEAT AT 83 Corn Takes A Tumble Oats De cline In Some Cases Three Cents. Provisions Cheaper. Chicago. July 17.

Apparently well-au thenticated reports of frosts in Manitoba helped the Wheat market today to rally, notwithstanding a sharp break in prices for coarse grain. "Wheat closed a shade to c. net higher, but Corn off lta2Vic, and Oats at a decline of Latest trading left Provisions less expensive by 4a25c. Besides having aid from frost reports. Wheat was lifted by news of export busi ness at the It was said that the ocean contracts amounted to as much as 40 boatloads.

At the same time St. Louis sent word of a big falling off in sales of Wheat there by the country. Moreover, pessimistic advices were at hand regarding the crop outlook in Western Min nesota and in Xorth Dakota. On the other hand, the movement of new Wheat to Chicago reached huge proportions, and there was a big increase also in -the United States visible supply. For a while these bearish factors, coupled with weakness of forage, had more than neutralized Initial strength due to a remarkable decrease in the total amount of Wheat on foreign passage.

It was at this juncture, though, that dispatches arrived telling of frosts in Manitoba stretching from Kisby to Argola. Thereafter prices kept above Saturday night's level, bnt the final tone was easy. During the session September ranged from 87V2C. to 88c. and closed at 88c, a net gain of a shade.

In the Corn pit. owing to the cool, show ery weather, a decided change of sentiment took the place of the buying fervor of last week. One of the Chicago experts traveling in Kansas said the public trad been misled as to damage and that the State would raise as mncii as last year. As a result there was heavy selling pressure, especially on the deferred months. September fluctuated between 64c.

and 66c, closing weak at the first-named fig ures, a net loss ot ic. casn grades were depressed; No. 2 yellow finished at 65-2a 66 He Oats suffered severely from weakness an day. Threshing returns were away ahead of what had been expected. As if to make matters worse, each successive break in Drices had the effect of frightening buy ers off rather than stimulating a desire to purchase.

Speculative holders appeared to be unloading an that tney couia dispose or. High and low points for September were 46c. and with last sales 2c. down, at 43e. Provisions sagged for lack of support.

In the end Pork was off 10c. to Lard I212C to 17a20c, and Ribs 2V2c. to 15c. Car-Lot ReceiDts Wheat. 364 cars, with 327 cars of contract grade; Corn, 70 cars, with 20 cars of contract grade; Oats, 93 ears.

T0FTW00D TO CARRY GRAIN Wreckers Seek Sanken Hopper Which Went Overboard From A Car Float At Locnst Point. The Johnston Line steamer Temple-more, Capt. Isaac Jones, only wants permission given to Chief Engineer Greene to show how his triples can churn the water and drive the yacht of the fleet througli the mazes of the sea. Having been delayed four days in Liverpool by the seamen's strike, or until July 5, the Templemore was ordered to get to Baltimore in time to sail this week. Plenty of coal and willing men at the furnaces, who were "jollied" by Mr.

Greene, drove the vessel to Cape Henry in 10 days and a half, during which time 13.8 knots were reeled off without ruffling the fur of the racer. It was when the Templemore got inside the Capes that the power below awoke and when reaching Cove Toint Captain Jones ordered her let out to get into port Sunday night. For the four hours she made 15 knots each, reaching port in time for quarantine" and then to berth so the stevedores could start her inward cargo at midnicht and not break the Sab bath. She will load a full cargo and over 500 head of marketable beeves before sailing next Friday for Liverpool. The Templemore lias other records to her credit.

Captain Jones reported passing close to an iceberg on July 11 in latitude 42' 55' and longitude 48 19'. Fog was fought on July 8 and 9 between longitude and 36' west. Steamer Chartered For Grain. A surprise was sprung yesterday when McCall-Dinning Company, steamship brokers, announced that the British steamer Toftwood had been chartered by that firm to load a cargo of grain here this month for Rotterdam. The Toftwood is to load 21,000 quarters and is due here next week.

A diver was sent down and the great machinery prepared to pump up the ore after the diver locates the sunken car and cargo. Kershaw Again In Service.

After being surveyed and found not damaged by being ashore on the Massachusetts coast the Merchants and Miners' steamer Kershaw was floated yesterday from Skln-rer's lower drydock. She will resume her regular sailing this evening for Boston with passengers and freight. While in dock the vessel was cleaned and painted up to the deep load line. Great Cargo Of Iron Ore. A record cargo of iron ore, consisting of 12,640 tons, arrived at Philadelphia on Sunday in the Norwegian steamship Themis, from Wabana, It is claimed to be the largest cargo of ore ever brought to the United States.

It will require 316 cars to carry the ore from the Port Richmond piers to the furnaces to which it is consigned. Ten locomotives will be required to haul the cars to their destination. Marine Personals. Chief Engineer Norman Mackinson, of the United Fruit Company's steamer Barnstable, will remain ashore this trip for a vacation. Mr.

James Banner will have charge of the engines for the round trip to Jamaica, whence the Barnstable will sail tomorrow. Capt. Samuel C. Sprague, of the schoon. er Benjamin A.

The controlling factors in the 6tock market were not changed materially today, and trading remained dormant, with few modifications of importance in price levels. During the greater part othe day the market maintained a firm undertone, with prices slightly "higher. A heavier tone developed before the close, and the list yielded on moderate pressure to a point which showed fractional net losses. The whole day's range was small and trading was dull throughout-Such activity as was shown at rare Intervals was centered in the more obscure issues, including the minor specialties. Transactions for the day were not far from the low point of the year, falling to the meagre total of 141.000 shares.

Canadian Pacific once more came to the fore, advancing 1, to 243; the highest price at -hich this stock ever sold. The advance strengthened Minneapolis, fet. Paul and Saulte Ste. Marie, a subsidiary, which moved up a point. Southern Railway, ordinarily an inactive Issue, led the market through the greater part of the session in point of activity, and advanced to within a small fraction of its high price of the yf ar There was a further recovery in Texas Oil on advices from Paris telling of the improved condition of its chief projector.

National Biscuit and Underwood Typewriter advanced briskly on small transactions, and American Tobacco preferred lost a The investment market is almost as quiet as stocks. Houses that were selling a large amount of new bonds, preferred stocks and notes in have reduced their sales force. The statement of James J. Hill that the crops in the Northwest were "spotted" and that the general crop situation of the countrv does not warrant any increased animation In trade made no impression on Great Northern or Northern Pacific. As a matter of fact, the spring wheat crop in the territory of both of these roads is very much better than it was a year ago.

Each line should have material increase in grain tonnage. More business was done in Southern Railway common up to 2 o'clock than in Steel, Union Pacific or Reading. Even at this the sales of it in the first hour were less than 6,000 shares. Southern Railway promises to be a popular stock for the next year or so. Those who buy th.e common should not get over-ethusiastic on the subject of dividends, for it will be impossible to pay one in several years.

Seaboard Air Line adjustment 5s sold at a new high figure. They commenced to advance last week around 79. Today they were well above 81. The price at which they are now quoted returns a good profit on the investment. It is believed that they will sell on a 5 per cent, basis during this fiscal year.

Rumors that the dividend on Canadian Pacific mav be increased to 12 per cent, are denied. After raising the rate above 10 per cent, th erailroad. by the terms of its charter, has ta reduce its freight rates. It is not likely to open the way for such a plan. Todav the stock was much stronger than the American railroad Issues.

Oil was the feature of the trading on the local Stock Exchange yesterday. More than 2,000 shares of the preferred stock changed hands, sending the price up to 61 toward the close. The common stock was not quite so active, only about 1,000 shares being dealt In at prices ranging from 8 to 8V.

The rise was about 2 points on the preferred and the Interest in the change was manifest on nil sides. It was the most talked-of ftock on the street and the speculation as to the outcome of the readjustment of the company's affairs assumed various aspects. In knowing circles it was stated that nt least three conferences In reference to the compromise plan were held yesterday between the Salomon and Whittaker sts. There was a rumor that buying was being ordered by the opposing Interests, but this could not be verified. The news tbe plan adopted will probably reach the stockholders within a few days, certainly not later than 10 days, when the prospects of the company can be better determined.

Mr. C. II. Hlx, vice-president and general manager of the (seaboard Air Line Kailwny, was in Baltimore yesterday, stopping here on his way to New York. He has Just been on a trip through tbe South, where he found the conditions prosperous and th crop outlook excellent.

The low mark for the year uns 102, on February 24. The sharp rise In price of the stock is in contrast with tltr.t. of some of the corresponding lines, it as the Pennsylvania and the New rk Central.

The showing of the road Is decidedly satisfactory when It is recalled timt 101 was an exceptionally good year lei- the railroads and that the reverse has been the fact for the fiscal year of 1911. Under a threat of belnc investigated four times a year the national banks of the country have been instructed by the Comptroller of the Currency to hold directors' meetings at least once a month to maintain discount and examining committees and to adopt a permanent system of approving lunns and discounts. National bank examiners have been infirm fed to sec that these orders are carried out and to examine all banks that fnll to hold meetings frequently or give "tlier evidences of lack of personal Interest by the directors. This notice has been sent by Comptroller Murray to the national bunk examiners: "Hereafter you will please send in with your reports of examinations a certificate signed bv you covering the following points: That the hank is. In your judgment, absolutely solvent; that the by-laws satisfactory, and are followed: that the management is safe; that the books show Its real condition, and are bo kept that the examiner can readily make a thorough and complete examination of the bank.

"If you cannot make this certificate unqualified, then you will advise the officers and directors that the bank will not be passed bv you unless the conditions which make it Impossible for you to make such certificate are remedied. Construction of the Sandy Valley and F.lkhorn railroad, which will connect the Unltimore and Ohio railroad with the Elk horn coal Holds of the Consolidation Coal Coumany. is being pushed. This line will be about Mo miles long and will cost up ward of exclusive of equipment The P.altimore and Ohio Tlailroad Company has signed a contract with the Consolida tion Coal Company to taue over tne road when It is completed at a price covering tho cost of building plus interest. In addi- on.

the Baltimore ana onio ltaiiroaa binds itself to furnish equipment sufficient to handle tons or coal a year. In the stock deposit agreement of the Washington, r.nltlmore and Annapolis trie liallwov Company notice has been sent to stockholders that the new securities will be ready for delivery July 24. The notice filgnltles the particular place where the various kinds of certificates should be presented In the demand for Wheat for export the nhe countrv seems anout tne only tern tnrv In need of a supply. The United Klncdom Is not in the market to a large extent, and France refuses to reply to cable offers. Rotterdam Is the principal shipping point.

Better business is looked for within two or three weeks. The suggestion has been made that Mary land should have representation at the American Land and Irrigation Exposition to be held in ew York next November. Several proposals have been made to Baltl moreans to enter, but thus far nothing has been done to bring about a deal which would insure a creditable showing for the State. The exposition Is designed to promote the interests of every state in the Union and will, therefore, be one of the largest of Its kind ever held. Madison Square Garden will be' the scene of the display, and already space is at a premium.

It is suggested that certain large trade bodies in Baltimore club together and raise sufficient money to rent the required space and then lease it to firms wishing to exhibit. The principal idea Is to have the various soils of the State represented, as well as the kinds and qualities ot produce raised here so that the world may get a better knowl edce of the State's resources. It Is not believed that the exposition will Interfere in any way with the one to be held here, and those who have heard of the plan have expressed a hope that the State win taKe parj Money And Exchange.

COTTON MARKETS output, Xew York. New York, July 17. The Cotton market was weak and unsettled during today's trading under general liquidation and bear pressure, insuired bv favorable weather reports, unfavorable trade advices, eas" Lir- I erpool cables and a bearish private crop condition report. July held pretty well on a little support from the bull brokers in the absence of offerings, but later positions broke severely and the market closed easy at practically the lowest point of the day, with July showing a net loss of only 6 points, while later months were from 21 to 29 points under the final figures cf Saturday. The market opened steady at an advance of 1 point on near months, but generally' 2 to 7 points lower under liquidation by Saturday's buyers, who were evidently impressed by the relatively easy showing of Liverpool, a continuation of showery weather in the Western belt and a private report making the condition of the crop 88 per against 89 per as reported by the same authority toward the end of June and 87.5 per cent, during the middle of June.

Increasing receipts of new crop Cotton in the Southwest seemed to be encouraging sales of August, and while July held steady all later deliveries worked off from the opening figures during the early trading. Rallies of from 2 to 3 points occurred from the lowest during the middle of the day, but the South was a steady seller, detailed weather reports were considered favorable, the trade anticipated a bearish weekly bureau report tomorrow and trade buying was much less in evi dence tnan it was toward the close of last week. At any rate the market became very weak during the afternoon, a decline into new low ground uncovered stop-loss orders and October contracts sold at 12.52c. before the close, or about 47 points under the high level of July 11, and about 127 points be low the high price touched during the middle of June. Reports of a cut in the price cf a leading brand of cotton goods had an unfavorable effect on sentiment during the day.

From the facts as they are alleged to have been found in an investigation by Police Commissioner Rhinelander Waldo "it would appear that the present high price of ice is largely due to the greed of the Ice companies in refusing to take necessary measures to supply the city's wants." In reporting his findings to the Mayor today the Commissioner says that of 430 independent ice dealers interviewed 229 complained of prices charged by the larger wholesalers; that about July 1, when the hot weather set in, the largest of Xew York companies, the Knickerbocker Ice Company, raised the price from $2.25 to $3 and at one East Side dock more than doubled the price, to $5 a ton. The advance was made, the Commissioner finds, in the face of a plentiful supply In storage along the upper Hudson and over 300,000 tons on barges in the river, and he finds no basis for thn excuse that th Knickerbocker company could not find men enough to handle the commodity. President Wesley M.Oler, of the Knickerbocker company, when shown Commissioner Waldo's report, denied the allegations mad In it. NEWOTORK HOTEL ARRIVALS Special Dispatch to the Baltimore Sun.
