Granger Stocks and Industrials
Make New Records. Crop Pros
pects Cause Lower Cotton
Prices. Big Foreign De
mand For Wheat.
Special to Journal.
New York, August 3 London sent
higher prices today.
The crowd who have worked for lowcs
prices accepted the conditions and turned
buyers.
Commission houses had extensive buy
ing orders and prices under the leader
ship of the Grangers advanced steadily,
making new records.
The industrial class was strong, Chi
cago Gas advanced two points upon the
final arrangement ot consolidation, Sugar
and tobacco advanced upon inside buy
ing.
The market is on the up grade now.
Cotton. Liverpool came-strong with
good demand. Insiders were disposed to
sell to buyers on good crop report, and
large crop estimate, with little demand
from spinners.
The reaction caused a decline of 7 to 10
po'nts.
Wheat was higher on Jpreigu cables
and the engagement of over one million
bushels for expert, with St. Louis bid
ding for all new wheat receipts caused
now records in wheat. Both options
gained nearly two cents.
A reaction may come, but the farmer
will get best the prices for years if he
holds his wheat.
