CHICAGO , Juno 20. Firm foreign mar
kets sent wheat up today , and , after fluctu
ating within l'/4o range , July closed % o
higher. July corn closed % c higher , July
oats 3c higher and provisions lower all
around. Wheat opened at from He to % c
advance and sold up , with some reaction ,
from IHo to l 4c , declined HO , again ad
vanced from % o to4c , eased off from % o
to Uo nnd closed steady. There was a fairly
active demand from the start , the strength
being duo mainly to foreign advances , Liver
pool showing ' /4c advance , In the face of the
decline here yesterday , and was looked upon
as a decidedly "bullish" feature. There
were nlio reports of a good sized quantity of
iprlng wheat accepted by cable today , which
was offered the other side last night , and
this acted as a stimulating Influence. The
calo was said to be fully % c over the price
of July. There was also some very bad re
ports In from South Dakota , reporting drouth
and a short crop , rain ) In many places com
ing too late. The market all day was nerv
ous and unsettled , the action ot the price
being something of a puzzle to many traders.
Corn was firm , with Ic range. Good buyIng -
Ing and the strength In wheat caused the
advance.
Oats were excited and continued the sensa
tional advance , aided by light offerings and
unfavorable crop reports. The range was
3c for July.
Provlilons were dull and weak.
Freights , slow at lV4c for wheat and Ic
for corn to Buffalo.

The hot weather of the part few days has
caused an Improved feeling In the lemon market.
Auction sale prices In New York last week nd-
ranced 6073o a box nnd the Importers and hold-
rs of stock are jubilant. N w Yoik dealers are
predicting a dim maiket all tKe season , basing
their belief on Ihc statistical position and the
generally poor keeping- quality of the fruit this
season. July Is usually a laige consuming
month , hut August Is looked upon as the banner
period for distribution , and also as the time
when the reduction of stock Is made rapid by
decay , llefcrilnz to the statistical position It
may bo sold that the visible supply consists of
214. COO boxt-s. of which quantity there are In
transit to Now York 18.8,0 boxes ; to Hoston.
18,0110 ; to H.Utlmorc.B.iOJ. and to New Orleans 1,500
Whllu thcie aiu mill considerable many lemons
remaining ubrmd at the points of supplv. It Is
claimed that tha quality of the fiult Is such that
great risk would be Inci cacnl In shipping to this
side , and Importers awaru of this urc likely to
adopt a policy of caution In unking advances
The position of the maiket Is u-jjurded a favor

Speculation on 'OIiaTigo Win Dull and Gen
erally Uninteresting.
NEW YORK , Juno 20. Speculation on the
Stock exchange was dull and generally unin
teresting , being practically confined to the
room traders. The failure to make public
today the Atclilson reorganization caused
some doubfs as to the ability to reach on -
agreement , but It Is authoritatively asserted
the main points at Issue are settled , that
the foreign committees have signified their
acceptance of the plan , and that It will be
published tomorrow. H ( is { reported now
that no collateral trust bonds will bu issued ,
that the issue of second mortgage , bonds will
ba $35,000,000 , which. Is $5,000,000 more than
was at first proposed , and that the new In
come bonds , as well as the stocks , shall bo
entitled to vote for the first board of di
rectors.
The stock of the company was more
largely dealt In than usual today , fluctuating
between G % and ( Hi , the last sale being at
6 % , a gain of l/4 per cent on the day. Sugar
was the most prominent In the transactions.
At the opening a brisk selling movement ,
engineered by pool brokers , sent the stock
down , and a report was circulated that the
discrimination of 1-10 cent against German
refined sugar would bo removed. When the
pressure was removed a rally of H per cent
took place , which was followed by another
decline of l'i per cent to 96 % . The lower
range of values Induced some covering , which
resulted In a gain ot 1 % per ccnt wlth a
final reaction of % Per cent , making the
loss of the day % per cent. The grange
were neglected , St. Paul being the only one
of the group whloh made any show In the
dealings. At the close the market was
barely steady.
Bonds were weak all day and the volume
of business was light.
With reference to the meeting
of bank directors held yesterday
afternoon at which It was then said In
Wall street they had concluded to furnish
the gold required for export , today's Evening
Post says the meeting resulted In no action.
The Post further says : It Is In the authority
of some of those bankero who were present
tlmt the statement Is made that that was
done and that the meeting adjourned sine
die , each bank being left free , is heretofore ,
to determine for Itself how much ot Us gold
It would part with to any of Us customers
for export. All those present expressed
themselves as quite willing to do all In their
power to aid the government In an emer
gency , but It was the prevailing sentiment
in this matter that the question was to be
left to the dltcretlon of each bank.
Tbe Evening Post's London cablegram
says : The stock market } were depressed
today , and especially Americans , which
were led by the fall In Pacific stocks and
forced sales In Amsterdam. There was a
slight recovery t the close. The announce
ment of the Atchlson reorganization scheme
1s expected momentarily , but It U believed It
will contain nothing fresh. There Is talk of
the difficulties among the dealers In Ameri
can bare , cwlug to lb. continued fail IB

Supply of Cuttlo Forceil Prices Dotrn
* for n Time.
CJIICAGO , June 20. Not far from 18,000 cattle
reached the yards today. The effect upon prices
of so large a supply was not good. The offerIngs -
Ings of choice dry lot cattle were not very
numerous , and only for Monday's big decline
In the London market no doubt prices for that
particular grade might have bcvn sustained , but
they were overwhelmed by tha deluge of common
and medium stock. The depreciation In the
'value of 'tha latter was from lOc to 2Sc , and
the choicer sorts were carried down from lOe
to' 15c. There v.as very little appearance of
activity In the demand for any grade , nnd or-
jllnary grass cattle were almost unsalable ,
They bid fair to go still lower before the week
Is out unless lecclpts exhibit an unexpected
falling off. The outside quotation fur any
thing In the bovine line Is now f , tier IM lh
To bring more than J4.85 the offerings would
need to be exceptionally line. Thu bulk uf
today's business was done at fiom 13.50 to $4.6. >
for steera nnil at from } to { 3 for co\vx ami
bulls. There was not an over supply of native
butchers' and csnners' stock , but the heavy
supply of Tcxans told severely on those descrip
tions. Texas was credited with about 6.0UO
lionil. the bulk of which was common crasscrs ,
The decline In tlmt branch of the market was
not lets marked than that noted of natives.
At the opening of business there as a very
weak tone to the hog marltot. The large re
ceipts made buyers cautlour , anil they forced
a decline of from 60 to lOc. Price * for hea\y
hogs did not remain down , however. A little
later In the morning th demand became active ,
and before 10 o'clock the loss had been re
trained , the close being quite Him. Once be
fore within the last five months have the re
ceipts for a Wednesday reached 35,000 head
the estimate for the day and the degree of
firmness the mark t developer ! was , therefore ,
something of a suiprlse. The choice to light
sorts brought 14.85 , and as high as K was paid
for heavy welghti. Common Kiailes sold at from
14. 65 to (4.66. ajiil the bulk of the offerings from
14.70 to 14.80. Urnvesii averaging from 304 to
400 Ibs. were the freest belleis , the supply of
that grade being comparatively small.
There was a fairly. vllrm market for sheep and
lambs. The demand was light , but the offerIngs -
Ings wtro moderate , and the- advance made
at the beginning off the week was easily sus
tained. Sales of sheep were on a basis of from
II to J3.60 for Inferior 4o choice , with most of
the trailing at from 12.55 to (3. Lambs were
salable at from J2.60 .to 14.60 , according to
quality ,

WnUNESDAY , Juno 20.
So ( ar this week , compared with last , re
ceipts of cattle tmvo fallen off about 2,200
head , hogs 2,000 head and sheep 3 , COO head ,
The cattle market was somewhat de
moralized. Supplies were not at nil exces
sive , but the demand was decidedly slack
from all quarters. Very bad reports from
Chicago made shippers bearish , and tills , to
gether with the ample supplies , gave buyers
for local houses a big advantage. In general
prices ruled from lOc to 20c lower than
Tuesday. Some of the tidy fat light steers
did not sell a great deal lower , while , on the
other hand , bids on the choice heavy grades
were In many cases fully a quarter lower ,
The latter suffered perhaps the most , owing
to the demoralized condition of the market
acrcsn the water , which In turn had a dis
astrous effect on the export trade. It was
a dull mean , dragging market throughout
and the close was weak , with fully a dozen
loads unsold.
Cow stuff made up but a small proportion
of the offerings today. Good to choice stock
showed very little change , but the markut
was dull and lower on the under grade with
sales at from $1.25 to { 2.25. Calves were
In fair supply , only moderate demand and
generally about steady , and there was little
quotable change on the under grades.
Uuslness In stockcrs and feeders showed
considerable life and strength. Supplies
were comparatively limited , while the de
mon from all sources was quite active owing
to the Improved condition of pastures on
account of recent rains. 1'rlces were from
lOc to loc higher than Tuesday , and fully
a quarter higher than a week ago. Good to
choice ) feeders are quotable at from $3,15
to $3.50 , fair to good at from $2.65 to $3,10 ,
coirmon to poor at from $2.80 down. Kep-

HOGS Receipts were about the same aa a
week ago and the quality was fair. The
market opened out fully a dime lower than
Tuesday and closed very mean , lOc to 15c
lower. There appeared to bo a very good
demand from both packers and shippers , but
with heavy receipts and lower markets cast
buyers experienced no difficulty In persuad
ing sellers to part with their hogs at the
decline. On the early market the heavier
and butcher weight hogs sold at from $4.G5
up to $4.70 , while the lighter grades went at
from J4. CO down to $4.50 , with scattering
sales of Inferior stock down around $4.35 and
$4.45. The market rather weakened' ns the
morning advanced , owing to the slump In
provisions and the withdrawal of outside
support , closing all of lOc to ICc lower than
Tuesday. It took good hogs on the close to
bring $4.55. A good many hogs were unsold
at the cloie , although comparatively few of
them were In first hands. Sales were largely
at from $4.55 to $4.65. On Tuesday and aUo
on last Wednesday the bulk of the hogs sold
at $4.70 and $4.75. Representative sales :

ROOK ISLAND BAIN OAKS.
Tha Novel KntorprlBo Attracts Attention
mill Comment.
The Uock Island Kallroad company has cm-
mrkcd In the rain-making business. H docs
not emulate the example of Aberdeen In pray-
ng for moisture , for scriptural reasons , but
essays the role ot cloud compeller by artl-
Iclal means. Three ordinary box cars have
jeen converted Into raln-muklng cars. In
ono end of the car the operator lives. In the
other end thcro ore retorts , huge bottles and
ugs and various contrivances which belong
o the Eclonco of rolnmaklng. A battery of
.wolvo Jars capable of producing forty-five
volts , the amount of electricity required , Is
ranged close under the roof. On the oppo-
slto sldo of the floor are six large Jars ar
ranged In sets of two. From these shcot-
ron tubes extend through the roof through
which 8,000 gallons of gas are shot Into the
air every hour. Three cars are now being
operated , one at Keatrlce , Neb. , ono at Ifor-
ton , Kan. , and one at I'awnce City , Neb. It
costs f 100 a day to operate a car.
Commenting on the unlquo enterprise , the
New York Sun says ; In a part of the ter
ritory occupied by the Chicago & Rock Island
railroad drouths are a prevailing evil , and

tlon names , but ho added that the Informa
tion ho gave cnmo from a "high official of
a railway company. " Ho gave a letter writ
ten by this olllclal on August 22 , last year.
In which ho said :
"Those experiments have been made by a
couple of employes of this company. They
claimed to bo nlilo to cause rainfall by arti
ficial means , and wo liavo furnished them
with materlal.s slnco thu early part of May.
They liavo experimented In some eighteen
or twenty different places , and In cacti case
wo have had more or less rainfall. Wo liavo
had from one-half to three inches fall ot
rain In some cases wliero there was no
moisture In sight or known until they began
gan operations. Wo have been slow to bo-
llovo there was anything In this business ,
but , at the sama time , must admit that they
are either very fortunate or have hit upon
the right thing In the way of rain-making. "
The methods of these rain-makers have not
yet been revealed , but Prof. Harrington was
told by a railroad man who caught a gllmpso
of them at work , that "tho operators kept
themselves carefully secluded In u freight car
with a hole In the roof , and they seemed to
bo cooking over a red-hot coal stove. " Per
haps these gentlemen liavo fathomed tha
methods of Krank Melbourne , who waa also
In the habit of wooing general humidity
through a hole In the roof , and who was In
great demand among the western farmers
until they decided that ho did not give them
rain enough for their money. I'rof , Har
rlngton talil this railroad company proposed
to continue Its experiments. We have not
heard that the rain-makers now In the Hold
have opened the floodgates to any great ex
tent , although the gaits liavo been unmliH
talmbly ujar over the rest of the country.
To u Chicago Tribune reporter Assistant
General Manager Allen of the Hock Island
railroad nays It Is Impossible to keep up
with the demands made on the company'
raliuiialtliii ; force , as directed by Train Dis
patcher Jewell of Goodland , Kan. Mr. Jew
ell was to have been In Chicago last Sunday ,
but an appeal for his help to break up
an unusually stubborn drouth at Sioux City
caused him to pobtponu his visit. Mr. Al
len calculates It will toke him tfTrco days
to drown out the Sioux City people. "In tba
meanwhile , " said Mr. Allen , "hero Is a dis
patch from South Dakota beKBlnS us ta
send him thcro at once , and to telegraph
what the expense will be. Bo you see tha
ptoplo appreciate his wont , and are clad
to pay for It. An to the philosophy of Mr.
.Jewell's method I don't know a thing. lid
uses electric batteries and gasses , but thai
Is all I know , and all any one knows except
cept himself. He has sold the right to
use. his process In several counties , but th
people who use his stuff and apparatus know
no more about It than any ono el o. O
course wo bcllvo In It ; If wo did not w
would not pay him a salary to BO aroun4
on this business. "
