CROP DAMAGE REPCRIS WRE NUMEROUS Trade Was Llgtit In Corn anil Except for a Moment or Two nt tlie lleglu- nlnp ilia * eellnir CHICAGO , May 17. Wheat climbed above 70o today , July closing nl from 70o to 70 < ic , almoHt 2c higher than yesterday. Crop damage reports were the main factor In the bulge , July corn lost lie , September cats gained lie and provisions finished with but llttto change. There was not n weak ppot In wheat at thu opening. H differed In that from Its ac- tlon yesterday nnd the day before. H Blurted with buyers and sellers from CUHc to C9'4c ' , or from ftc to Hie per bu. higher than It closed yesterday. It was absorbed In Immense quantities nt between CSttc and GD'/ic ' , and was , of course , poured forth with equal liberty at the same time. Commission houses who had been among the most prom inent buyers for a couple of weeks had for the time what appeared to be unlimited oell- Ing- orders , nnd the general Impression was tlmt It was long wheat they were disposing of. More than two or three'houses dlnpoied of 1,000,000 bu. each In the first half hour of the ( tension , nnd 100.000 bu. lots changed hands rapidly. Hut the market was glutton ous at the time , and not only gobbled It all up , but climbed to 70u while It was taking on the load. The latter price on the advance was only realized for ono O.OW ) bu. lot , but at ! ( , c , n big give nnd take business went on for n minute or two. That was the culmina tion of the forenoon bulge. The heavy real izing sales began to tell after that nnd before - fore 12 o'clock the price had reacted to Giic. The strength was n continuation of the effect of 111 ? damage to the growing crop In Its effect upon the minds of the people In the country. Wheat was worked to go from here by water to Detroit , and numer ous dispatches were In the hands of handler ) of cash grain ftom country millers , older- lnr nnywlitre from live car loads to 10,000 bu. each. These orders came from various ] > olnts In Michigan , Ohio nnd Indiana. The crop damage reports received wcro quite convincing to unprejudiced minds , and those In the end were In the majority , to Judge from the action of the market after fti forenoon break. About ten minutes from the close , the price of July wheat was 70c , or 2o above the price It closed at yesterday. Foreign markets wcro higher , but seaboard udvlccs wcro that the price ruling on this side were from 3o to 4c per bmhel above a working export buslnssi. Minneapolis and Duluth receipts were 142 cars , against 1GI cars a year ago. Exports of wheat and flour nt the Atlantic senboard were equal to 235- 000 bu. The market closed at from 70 o to 70ic } for July. Corn receipts numbered C01 CATS , nnd esti mates of COO cars for tomorrow were too de pressing In their effect to maintain corn even wllh such support qs It received from wheat. Trade was light , and except for 'a moment or two nt the besInning thu feeling WOH heavy. The opening for July wns Ir regular at Gl'Uc ' up to G2c , but It was soon crowded down by liberal offerings to 51U.C. It recovered near the close to Glc , nnd closed at from 51'/&c to Glc , ngnlnst Gl&c on the day before. Oats started steady ; weak nnd off a bit , , remaining so the fore part of the session , rallied later and closed firmer nt nn ad vance , A fairly active market wa-j reported. . The fluctuations wore largely Influenced by wheat nnd corn. June started nt "S'/itf ' , Bold at 2Sc , down to 28Hc , and closed at 28V5 ; bid. September ranged from 2Sic to 23c , closing at the , latter price bid. The provision market was strong at the opening and rather weak during the greatei part of the remainder of the day. Therv WHS rallying near the end , which left price : about on a level with the closing quotation : o the previous day , The hog receipts were only 21,000 , against 32,000 as estimated yes- tcrday , and that was the cause of advances nt the opening of from 7' ' < 4c to lOo In pork , from 2Hc to 6c In lard and Gc In ribs. The former dropped -ICc during the forenoon , anO lard and ribs declined about Gc each , iiefor < the close the prices recovered In sympathj with the strength In wheat to about tin level of the- previous day's closing prices July pork closed 2V4o lower , and lard ant rib * each , 2',4chigher. .

The' five days' receipts foot up 3.C07 entile. 21,628 hoge nntl 1,729 uhoep. Indicating a decrease of about 1,000 cattle and an Increase of 7,000 hogs nnd 800 sheep as compared with arrivals for the corresponding spending period last week. Tlie cattle market today was weak and dull. There were less than half us many cattle on sale as a week ago and the meager offerings Included a load or two of very good beeves , both natives and westerns. On account of the doubtful tone to reports from the east there was no In quiry to amount to anything for shipping or speculative account and the market was practlclally left to the dressed bef men. Their wants were apparently very limited , ns after buying a few loads nt right around steady prices they quit oft short nnd the market closed weak nnd lower , with several loads. Including the bst received , still In first hands. In spite of the dullness and weakness In the fat cattle trade , there was plenty of life In the market for butchers' stuff and canners as far as It went , ana the limited offerings changed hands readily nt good strong prices. Veal calves were also In active request at steady prices , but the market for bulls , stags , etc. , was slow and weak. Tlie supply of stackers nnd feeders on sale came no nearer to supplying the demand today than has been the case recently , Both country buyers and yard traders were active buyers at strong prices while the supply lasted. Good to choice feeders are quotable at from { .135 to $1.00 ; fair to good at from J3.00 to $3.33 and common grades at from $3.00 down. Representative- ; DRESSED IIEEP. No. Av. Pr. No. Av. Pr.

Dun & Co.'u weekly review of trade , which Issues to morrow , will say : The severe cold snap , with extensive 'rests anil In some states snow , has for tunately done little damage to the great crops , though much to fruit , but has con siderably retarded retail trade. The best news of the week la the ndvnnce of 10 per cent In wnjos by the Carnegie works , fol- owed by the Jones & Laughlln establish ment nnd evidently Implying a similar nd- vance by many other concsrns. The Illi nois Steel company Is starting Its furnaces without granting the demands of its em ployes. No advance has bier found practicable In the woolen mills , where conditions ns to prices and foreign competition are very different , and about 10,000 workers are still Idle nt Olneyvllle , where the works should consume 000,000 pounds per week. In other departments of labor tioubles are not rfrlousand the demand for manufactured pr. lucts Increases. With material and steady enlargement In do mestic trade thereIs still great want of em- jloymem In the Interior for money which comes ilther , J3,600,000 during the past week , and with : ho millions distributed by the inmllcute on > und accounts stimulates speculation. Accoid- Ingly whent has risen 5 cents , although the re ports of Injury by front do not appear , upon lifting , to concern any considerable proportion > f the , growing grata , Western receipts for two weeks of Msy have been 2.S37.KW bushels , ignlnst 2,600.238 bushels last year , and Atlantic exports 3ODU,3S4 bushels , against 4.DC3.101 last yeiir , being reduced by the advance In price less than would be expected because of gen erally current reports of decrease of acreage. With only six weeks of the crop year left the strwks In sight constitute n heivy surplus , If not as large as some western statisticians esti mated. Corn has advanced only 14 cent , being ap parently Injured more than wheat , but the acreage gives promise of a yield of 2,000,000,000 buthejs , Cotton Is nn eighth stronger. Ooods are In 'aJr demand for the season , and the advances in prices nre maintained. Wool sales are re markably heavy for the past week at the three jchlef markets , sales being 6,536,750 pounds , and fw two weekx of May 11,059,750 pounds , against 11,767,750 In the same week of 1SJ2 , the last year ot full demand. In that year the sales of domestic were 6,962,000 , nnd this year 5.C81.- 7DO pounds. Bessemer Iron has risen to J11.40 at Pitts- burg , with grey forge to J9.C5. Finished products are In larger demand , hut ns yet not enough larger to cause any general advance In prices , nnd proposals of combinations In merchants' steel , Mruclurnl Iron , cant pipe , wire ro la nnd cut nails , with the existing combination In iteel rails , show * the market does not rise of Itself. Failures during the past week have been 211 In the United States , nrnlnst 219 last year , nnd 37 In Canada , against 24 last year.

Uradstreet's tomorrow will say : General trade conditions throughout the coun. try continue In the main quite favorable. Ac tivity In spuculaUve- and Investment circles has exceeded that In mcrchnndlic lines , but gains made In the latter have In nearly nil ) nstnnces been retained. Woolen goods manu facturers , even with onleis for several months to come , arc not antlc'patlng wants , as prices for wool at the Interior are above n parity with ijuotatlons at the seaboard , and lower pHcea hre looked for. The heaviest transactions con. tlnue In Australians. The weather has letatded she/irlng. Rhcde Island woalen manufacturers pay the demand Is largely for the cheaper grades. llutilne ; * at PItlsburg has been stimulated b ; the "advances and greater activity In Iron and Heel , hut Philadelphia does not appear to have fully shared In this. The most noticeable Im provement Is at llaltlmore , being In dry goods and shoes. Cential and northwestern cities an nounce n slightly restricted volume of business since the sudden change In the weather. Among Houthern cttCes. nn lmpro\ement In trade Is re- poite l from Memphis. In groceries nt Chatln- nooga , at Savannah und particularly ut GaJvston , where business Is auld to be fairly satisfactory and the outlook favorable. At New Orleans the volume of business Is smaller. Exports of wheat frum the United Statets nnd from Mon treal this week ( Hour Included jis wheat ) amount to only 2:97,000 bushels , against 2SOi.OX ) bushels last week , 2,2-10,000 bushels In the corresponding week one year ago. 3,885,000 two jears ago and 3.C03.000 bushels three years ago.

Easily Secured. ORD-R OF JUDGE SANBORNIN1H- CJrnntlnc of Petition ot American Loan anil Trait Company Contingent on Fulfill * mrnt uf Condition ! Which It Will Ho Very Ulnlcult to Meet. The- order male by Judge Snnborn In the ) rcgon Short Line case has been received at Jnlon Pacific headquarters , though It throws Ittle additional light upon the existing situ ation as outlined In ttio local columns ot The Jeo of Thursday. The complete order Is as bllows : "The receivers now In pojscwlon hold the property that formerly belonged to the Ore- ; on Short Line Hallway company under a > lll to foreclose the first mortgage thereon , dated November 1. 1881 , which secures bonds o the amount of $14,931,000 , which covers Cll nlles of railroad extending from Granger , In the Plate ot Wyoming , to Huntltigton , In the state ot Oregon , \\ltli a branch to Kctclium , and In which John F. Dillon Is the solo trus- eo. These receiver * wcro appointed by the circuit court tor the district of Wyoming on the 28th day of August , 1801. "The receiver to whom application Is made .o transfer this property was appointed by the circuit court of the Ninth circuit for the llstrlct of Oregon on March 20 , 1895 , under a bill to foreclose the second mortgage upon this property , dated August ) , 1889 , which secures bontU to the amount of $10,893,000 , which covers the rallrcaJs described above and other railroads , which amount In all to 1,456 miles In length. "No part ot the' principal secured by the Irst mortgage Is duo and the only default n the performance ot Its conditions that has occurrcJ consists In the failure to pay certain InstallmsnU ot Interest. "It was conceded by counsel for the trustee in the first mortgage upon the hearing that the payment of the Interest duo under that mortgage must defeat his foreclosure suit and relieve the property from the receiver ship thereunder. BOOKS TO BE LOOKED AT. "Now comes the American Loan and Trust company , the trustee under the second mort gage , and offers to pay the Interest due under said first mortgage , and moves that- the said property , which formerly belonged to the Dregon Short Line Hallway company , be transferred to the receiver appointed under the bill to foreclose said second mortgage , and upon consideration It Is ordered that the receivers herein , S. II. H. Clark , E. Ellery Anderson , Oliver W. Mink , John W. Doane and Frederic n. Coudcrt , make and file with the court at St. Paul , Minn. , on or before the 27th day of May , A. D. 1895. at 10 o'clock In the forenoon , an estimate under oath of one of cald receivers , as nearly accurate as they are able to make the same , of the amount of moneys that will probably be In their hands as such receivers on the 1st day of June , 1895 , applicable to the payment of the Interest due on the bonds secured by the said first mortgage to John F. Dillon. "It Is further ordered that all parties In Interest In this application may , If so ad vised , then be heard as to' the amount that It will be necessary for the trustees under said second mortgage to pay Into court In addition to the amount In the bands of the re ceivers applicable thereto In order to dis charge the overdue Interest secured by said first mortgage , and , In case such payment Is made , as to the form of the order for the transfer of the property covered by the first Mortgage to the receivers appointed under the Dill to foreclose the second mortgage. "That the said receivers make and file with .lie court at St. Paul , Minn. , on or before the 27th day of May , A. D. 1895 , at 10 o'clock In the forenoon , an estimate under oath of one of said receivers , ot all moneys that will probably be In their hands as such receivers in the 1st day of June , 1895 , applicable to the payment ot Interest secured by mortgages on any portion of the property ot the Oregon Short Line and Utah Northern Railway com pany. " HOW IT IS INTERPRETED. The purport of this order Is , according to Union Pacific officials , that upon payment of about $100,000 Interest In default on the Short Line property , extending from Granger to Huntlngton and to Ketchum the American Loan and Trust company will succeed to the receivership. Upon the Utah Southern and Utah Northern properties Judge Sanborn does not pretend to pass , although undoubtedly setting the pace that shall be followed by Judge Merrltt In the Utah district and Judge Gilbert la the Ninth circuit. Larger amounts ot Interest are In default upon the Utat"Northern } and Southern extension than upon the Short Line , and these amounts will have to be taken care ot before the property passes out ot the hands of the present re ceivers Into the hands of a receiver appointed under the petition ot the American Loan and Trust company. Without the Utah Northern and Southern extensions the receiver of the Short Line would be wholly In a pccket , so to speak , one portion of his line joining the Oregon Railway & Navigation company at Huntlngton , the other joining the Union Pacific at Granger , and he would be at the mercy of Receiver McNelll at one end and the receivers of the Union Pacific at the other. Under these circumstances It Is hardly fair to presume that the present constructive mile ot 1 % to 1 would be continued by the Union Pa cific and a loss mileage would have to be accepted by the receiver of the Short Line In order to get an outlet east. This conclusion , of course , Is based upon the theory that the opposition to the present receivers of the Union Pacific falls to guar antee the payment of Interest on the first mortgage as It becomes due , and also Is unable to raise the Interest In default. Judge Sanborn's order , according to those who claim to know , haves the matter much In the same position as at present existing. He surrounds his orders with every safe guard , gives to the receivers of the Union Pacific the right to bs heard on all ques tions , And virtually remands further pursuit for a separate receiver on the part of the American Loan and Trust company to the courts having jurisdiction In the Ham and Richardson foreclosure suits. In view of the many snarls stlll'to bo un raveled , and the many legal technicalities to be encompassed , It would seem as If the sit uation was riot so bad as some people ha.d anticipated from a hasty reading of Judge Sanborn's order In Its emasculated form , as It appeared In the dally paprs. One * MI n Ooiilil Ito it. E. E. Calvin , superintendent of the Idaho division of the Union Pacific , tendered his resignation to General Manager Dlcklmon yesterday , asking that It take effect May 25. While there have been rumors as to the contemplated resignation. It came as a sur prise to Mr , Dickinson , notwithstanding. Speaking ot Mr. Calvin , General Manager Dickinson said he was exceedingly sorry to have him leave the service ot the Union Pacific. "There are few'belter railroad men than he. He understands perfectly the re quirements of a railroad. ' Since 1891 he has held the posUjon which he now leaves for a higher place and , with another system. While we should hare liked him to continue with us , still we could not afford to stand In the way of a faithful employe's advancement , and his resignation Is , therefore , reluctantly accepted. " .
