PEORIA, III., May 29.-CORN
CHICAGO, May 29.-Damagc claims from
Franco and sympathy with corn sustained
wheat today In the face of ruin In tho
northwest, July closing iiiJVie over yestor
aay, July corn closed Uflc up and July
oats a shado Improved. Provisions closed
ttcady and practically unchanged.
Wheat opened llrm, July a shade over
yesterday at 7o to tt",c, on the strength of
cables, Liverpool quoting futures lid higher
and Paris reortlng nn ndvunco of lc per
bushel. Tho llrmnoss was of short dura
tion, for tho northwest reported moderate
rains, with a prrmpect of more of the snmo
needed article, while Huda Pest and Bert it
wero weak. Those considerations sent July
down to Mr;fe. The crop news from all win
ter wheat sections Kansas nnd the ad
joining regions In the snuthwcjU excepted
wero of the most glowing character. The.
Indiana crop was said tp be thrcutencd
with nlmost total destruction and the Ohio
reports wero nearly as gloomy. Iiter In
, v, ,i,, .iinrin ,nfprpl mi renorts of droutn
nnd cold weather In Trance and because ut
tho unfavorabln dowcfltle reports aforo
mentloiipd. In this way most of the wheat
sold early was repurchased and July ral
lied to ift'le, closing llrm at Wl"n over
yesterday at G7i(67'c. 'lho strength oc
velopcd by corn was also a support. New

Tlicro wa u largo local trade In corn and
prices were higher. Cables wero higher,
tho weather was considered too wet. coun
try acceptances were small nml there was
nn Improvement In the cash business. Under
theso Intluences July, which had opened
unchanged to a shado lower at from 3;c to
3iWi37c, advanced to 37'fce and closed llrm,
lifiHe over yesterday at SiUtiSiiiC. Local
recofpts wero 61fi ears.
Oats were quiet but llrm under the leader
uhl? of corn and because of fair cash de
mand. A report that the oats condition
In the United Kingdom was the worst in
years was also a help. Receipts here wpto
AOS cars. July sold between 31 Uc and 2lm!
und elcsed a shade over yesterday at 21U'.

advance of 10c per 100 pounda In the price
of rellned sugar was the occasion of the

war news und tlir easier monev conditions 1 TnUviito
In I-omloii. Tho evo of a holiday Invariably Union Paclllc
lends io inn closing up in accounts and
buying for the ohorts wns an element of
strength today. Some rollef was felt nt
lho non-concurrence of further llmtncinl
dllllcultlcs. The Iron und Steel storks
were strong, led by fltoel Hop on tho
favorablo annual statement. Continuation of
reports of an arrangement for the absorp
tion of Standard (Ins bv the Consolidated
Gas company was a favorablo Inlluence.
Railroad earnings so fur as reported wero
rroad. The room traders were dhposed to
tho bull side on the general grounds that it
was duo for a rise In view of tho firmness
displayed In face of tho two brokerago
failures last week and this. Notwithstand
ing theso various elements of strength, It
cannot bo said that the sentiment for nn
advance wns very deep-rootel. Uneasiness
continues over tho reactionary tendency,
especially over tho decline In freight
trniria and well defined reports ot
cutting of rates. The need of rain In the
spring wheat belt is ulso n causo of
anxiety.
Tho bond market wn very dull nnd the
prlco movement Irregular. The total sales,
Jl,53.",000. United States bonds unchnnged
In bid quotations.
Tho Commercial Advertiser's Ixmdon
financial cablegram says: There was gen

on tho nevit of Lord Roberts' cIomc ap
proach to Johannesburg. C.o'Jtr.U led. The
flpcculntlve position, however, wns virtually
nil, there being no bulls nnywhere. The
bears helped the tone by buying, but tho
selllnc was meager. Americans met with
F.traggllng buying. New York nccepted the
ndvance. Tho close was cheerful. The con
tnngo began at S'.iVj, but relapspd to 2'4'fC

NEW YORK, May 23.-CO'TTON-Much of
the Improvement' scored within tho last few
dayo in cotton futures was wiped out within
tho first hour today under very nctlve sell
ing by nil branches of-the trade and Irre
slstiblo bear Influences. Tho opening tlg
ures, which showed a decline of 39 points,
were nbout top of tho day, and while there
wero occasional periods of steadiness on
flurries of profit-taking the general ruling
of tho market was weak nnd the trend of
prices steadily downward. Within the first
hour the opening lireak was Increased to a
matter ot MHO points, while later In tho
session nnother spell of weakness carried
prices off 9 to 25 points from last night's
closing. Tho dominating Influence wns
weakness in tho English cotton mnrket,
where both Epot nnd futuro deliveries suf
fered severely from heavy selling pressure,
Tho European speculative market was In
fluenced by good crop und weather reports
from tho south, together with liberal offer
ings of snot cotton In the belt at lower
prices. Tho Now Orleans market wns rela
tively tho weakest on the list, owing to ac
tlvo bear speculation, prompted by excep
tionally good weather and crop statements
und reports of additional reductions In spot
quotations throughout the belt. There wns
a notable Increase in commission house
trading. Tho market closed easy on near
months nnd steady on far months, with
prices 91725 nointa net lower.

CATTLE The yards wero full of fnt
cattle today, there being 150 can of that
kind of cattle on sale. With such liberal
offerings buyers naturally took the benr
side. Still there was a good demand, nnd
enrly somo of the more desirable cattle
that Just happened to suit the wants of
buyers sold nt prices thnt wero pretty close
to stendy. As a rule sellers wero reporting
thnt they had to tnke off 5fll0o from yes
terday's prices. Tho trade was naturally
slow owing to the reluctance of sellers to
make any concession In tho mntter of
prices. Taking the trado ns a whole It was
in pretty fair shape considering the big
run.
Cows nnd heifers of choice quality were
In active demand at the opening of the
mnrket, and tho more desirable kinds were
soon picked up at Just about steady prices.
A little later, as it became apparent that
steers would sell lower, buyers were rather
Inclined to bear down a little, especially
on anything that had a show of grass.
Bulls seemed to be In pretty fair demand
nnd the market was steady.
Not enough stockers or feeders were on
sale to make much of u test of tho market,
but what few there were brought steady
prices. Represcntntlve sales:

WASHINGTON. May 2!. Tho supreme
court brforo adjourning decided several
cafes Involving tho question of Jurisdiction
ot tbo United States district courts under
tho present bankruptcy law.
Tho decisions in nil cases were handed
down by Justice Gray. In ono case, that
ot Rardrs against the tlawnrden (la.)
First National bank, tho court held lu
reply to questions certified by the United
States district Judges for that district.
1. The provisions of tho second clauso of
section 23 of tho bankrupt net of 1898 con
trol nnd limit tho Jurisdiction of all courts,
Including tho several district courts of the
United States, over suits brought by trus
tees lu bankruptcy to recover or collect
debts duo from third parties, or to set
aside transfers of property to third par
ties, alleged to bo fraudulent as ngalnst
creditors, Including pnymonts In money or
properly to pi ef erred creditors.
2. Tho district court of tho United States,
by the proposed defendant's consent, but
nut otherwise, entertain Jurisdiction over
suits brought by trustees In bankruptcy
to set aside fraudulent transfers of money
or property made by the bnnkrupt lo third
parties before tho Institution of proceed
ings In bankruptcy.
3. Tho district court for tho northern dis
trict of lown cannot take Jurisdiction over
tills suit as It now stands on the record.
In the case of W. A. Hicks, from tho cir
cuit court, ot nppcalH for tho Sixth circuit,
tho court held that n district court has
Jurisdiction by tho consent ot tho proposed
defendant, but not otherwise, to maintain
a bill In equity fllcd by a trustee in bank
ruptcy appointed by it, against a IrJudu
lent grantco or transference of the bank
rupt resident In this district, to recover
tho property belonging to the estato of tho
bankrupt nnd by him fraudulently con
veyed to tho defendant. In the case of C.
M. Whlto, from tho Seventh circuit, "tho
district court, Bitting in bankruptcy, had
Jurisdiction by summary proceeding to
compel the return of property sclied nnd
after an adjudication an action of replovln
in a stato court cannot be commenced and
maintained agnlnst the bankrupt to rover
property In the possession of and clalmo.l
by tho bankrupt nt tho tlmo of that ad
judication, and In the possession of a
referee in bankruptcy at the tlmo when
tho action ot replevin Is begun."
