RECEIPTS VERY HEAVY Nearly One Thousand Cars on the Market Chicago. July 15. Bolls in the corn pit who engineered the corner in July options ahondoned their position today and the yellow cereal leftto itself, fell from its lofty price and floundered 20 ceifts under vesterda5s best figure. Two causes were attributed to the action of this market- the immense arrivals of corn tempted to. this market by the fancy price, and set tlement with many of the July shorts by the Gates-New York bull clique of cornerers. Whether the corner has been broken or whether the action of the bull party today is simply a bait for the out side trade, is yet at a loss to understand. Common rumor, however, has it that the July deal is over and all that remains to be done is for the bull crowd to get rid of the cash corn that has been de livered to it. Naturally most of the- in terest in grains today has centered about July corn. As a result ih effect of the break was felt in all other grams. Yet naturally conditions were bearish nsugh to break prices, and fine weather and lower cables besides the heay receipts caused such general selling in all the pits that September wheat closed Wlhic lower; September corn IlHc down; July corn loVrC lowtr. and September oats vlc lower. Provisions started strong, but could not withstand the pres sure of the grain break and closed a shade to 20c lower. At the opening all signs pointed toward lower prices for corn. Th- fair weather of the last four days had done much to ward drying out the fields and enabling farmers to rush stuff to this market to take advantage of the fancy price ruling for contract corn. Elevators were busy drying stuff with greater rapidity. Yes terday it had been estimated that the receipts today would be about 1.000 cars and the expectations of the traders were practically realized. Arrivals were S27 cars, the greatest run for the crop, with 295 of contract grade. The unlicensed elevators turned out 116 cars and 50,0000 bushels. This amounted to a good half million bushels of contract stuff which stared the bull crowd in the face and which had to be taken in at Sic a bushel if the price waa to be maintained. The bulls refused to take the cora and the bears forthwith proceeded to hammer prices until practically all the artificial strength was taken out of July. Other natural conditions, such as fir., either and lower cables led to the bearish sen timent and September. Decern ner and May options e41 off in sympathy There was no marked excitement in the pit when prices sagged so rapidly. Much of the action of the congested option was a surprise to many traders but they took the slump as a matter of course. Fluctuations were vry erratic. The offer of "a five'' was fr.'i'igh to break the price 1c and a bid for -ten put the price up once 2c The grneral tred of opinion was that the c .m-r was broken. S. C. Scotter.. general manager for Harris-Gates Co.. stated shortly before the close of trade that private settlements had been made with mar.y of the shorts and that the interest in supporting prices by that firm was at an end. It is probable that shrrts now out can finish setMng in the 're.n market.

New wheat was coming to market freeiy. helped by the good receipts and warm weather. The corn bull crowd bourht over I.0000O0 bushels of September wheat on the early break, but the gen eral bearish sentiment prevalent cn the floor worked against the rally and prices fell back.

July suffered on the expectation of liberal offerings before the ead of the month. Poaaatseion houses sold freely and many of the boils were soppoeed to have let go.

PROFITS ARE $140,000,000 Charles Schwab Testifies to Value of Steel Properties, FIGURES ARE AMAZING Company Also Owns 1,467 Miles of Railway. Newark, N. J., July 15. The answer of the United States Steel corporation to the suit designed te prevent the J2a,- 008, C9 bond conversion plan, brought by J. Spimrall Hodge, Wliftam H. Curtis and Bernard Smith, was nted today. Tht suit is based on the contention that the corporation s assets do not equal the amount of its preferred stock, and that. therefore, it cannot proceed as intended, under the act of 1512. Tyie answer, which is supported by an affidavit of Charles Schwab, states that the assets will amount to the entire stock, bonds. common and preferred, or more thai. fl,400,CO,0CO. Mr. Schwab in his affldavlt maintains that his position is such as to give him knowledge of the actual worth of the properties and lists his estimates of their value. He says mon; oUte? things that the earnings of the corpora tion in the fifteen months of its existence have been in excess of 10 per cent of the entire capital stock. Mr. Schwab's answer contains the foi lowing statement of the value of the corporation's property, which estimate he regards as below its real value: Iron and bessemer ore properties, J703,- 003,009. Plants, mills, fixtures, machinery, equipment, tools and real estate, S3W.W0,. fiOX Coal and coke fields (S7.3S9 acres). $101- 000.009. Transportation properties, including railroads (1,437 miles), terminals, docks. ships (US), equipment (23.1S5 cars and 42S locomotives), etc. JS.fK1.009. Blast furnaces. J4S.OOi),009. Natural gas field, J2.00a,GMi Limestone properties, 5,000,003. Cash and cash assets on June 1, 1802, J14S.2SL000. Total, n.4M91,0Cl Mr. Schwab calls attention to the value of J32e,009,CO0 placed on the Carnegie prop erties as a result of the Frick litigation It is set forth also that the present fixea charges of the United States Steel cor poration are 5 per cent per annum ou J3OS.757.O0O of bonds, an annual sinking fund of J2.OI0.OiM, making an annual charge of J1S.227.S50; and that when the proposed issue of second mortgage bond.", is outstanding, name!)'. $25a.frj0,0, at i per cent, together with an annual sink ing fund of 5LS10.0O3, the total fixed charges of the- United States Steel cor poration for interest and bond sinking funds will be J3l.737.SS0, to provide which Mr. Schwab .says the corporation Is now earning at the rate of H4O.GM.ft00 per an num net. The profits of the United States Steel corporation," the affidavit continues. could be reduced more than 75 pei cent and there would still be ample funds to pay the interest and sinking funds upon tne nrst ano second mortgage bonds. Instead of a margin of 2 p-r cent ar, intimated in the affidavit of Smith, there Is a margin of 78 per cent be fore the solvency or financial ability of the st-H corporation .can possibly be questioned."

London July 14. The extmerdtiwry conduct of the war office in ruaticatlna; thirty cadets from Sanbdurst hues nam some person or persons unknown tried to burn the place down, baa no without some diiUculty been brought befora the parliament. Questions in the house of commons to Mr. Brodrick, the Secretary of War, having failed to produos any satisfactory reply, the natural course would have been to move the adjourn ment of the bouse, but this step was not taken soon enongh. A cooeervHttva member, one of the new baronets, inter ceded with a motion which, though it will never come on. prevent the adjourn ment being moved. The lords are at a disadvantage In dealing with the action of the executive government, because they cannot control it. but the debate drew the facta out clearly and showed that the war oolcfcua had not a leg to stand on. The story is simple aa It is d!aaare- able. Last spring there were seerru Ares at Sanburat. and the war office stopped all leave until the culprit were discovered. A similar eowrse was recently taken in a much less serious rase by the bead master of Eton la both caac it failed. At Sandhurst H was resented and led to Insubordination not of a very jcrave kind, at Caraberly Fair. A special commiavk-n was sent down to inquire into the disturbance, tne ring leaders tn which cor.frsaed sr4 were punished. Leave was then resorted for the coronation, but mi June S another nr-, the fifth, occurred. Then the war 0.ce dmrreed that unlom the ran. of the incendiary was given up within two days 51 the cadets of C com. pany who could not prove an alibi would be rusticated and the servants dismissed.
