OMAHA. June t. 1004.
Ths grain markets are full of crop flam
Bge reports out Of the southwest. Kansas
City sends the following: Oxford, Kan.,
heavy ruins; Arkansaw river overflowing;
White river higher than for thirty years
yeara and thousands of Here are under
water; Cow creek, near Burling, one mile
wide; Outline, a tornado, and a second In
Logan county,- making great dmusKe to
wheat; Lincolrr and Fort Scott, cloud
bursts; Sallda, Kan., thousand of acres of
wheat and rrrn deutroyed; Lawton, Okla
homa City, Enid and Muskogee, great dam
age by high winds and overflow; Okla
homa, along Cottonwood river, Inundated
for a width of several mile, fifteen at the
Junction with the Neosho; Florence, Kan.,
five Inches of rain; lola, " three feet of
water In streets, and thousands of acres
spoiled.
These reports must Bend the wheat up,
for they have started a heavy buying from
the southwest, which will be followed from
other sections. The market. In addition,
has received a boost from the Istest estl
mate by Jones, who Is more bullish than
ether exrerts. Jones thinks the condition
of the winter wheat In the southwest re
quires serious consideration. May, he
thinks, . has brought no Improvement In
condition, and the yield east of the Rockies
will be 0,000.000 buahels below the crop of
last year. Texas he gives but a naif
crop, and Oklahoma a small one. The
Ohio valley he Uriels sennatlnnnlly small.
The weather has been tixj cool to give
the spring wheat a good Start. Another
expert finds Oklahoma In a bad way and
limits the good crop there to five counties
.In the northwest. These will have a crop
of 70 per ent of that of last year, while
the rest VIM not run more than 10 or 20
per cent of 190i, with much In the west
loo poof to cut. . .
The Pacific coast reports' a late heavy
demand for flour from Japan. This may
affect the flour situation considerably. It
the war Is continued for some months the
demand will Increase steadily, and unless
supplied abroad will bring the Purine coast
at least, and probably Minneapolis, a relief
from the present stagnation,

in various sections. July wheat closed at
a loss of lo. Corn Is down lldc. oats
were off c. and provisions 1 -n-'. July
ran Red from Wa"o. up at SflWi'ko.
.Fear fur the future of the corn crop so
far as the effect on the corn croD of. heavy
rains west Is concerned seemed to hare
largely abated today snd there was no
lack or offerings at tne opening, irver
nlsht enthuslnsm on flood talk of yester
dav, however, gave July a start at 4c
lower to He higher at SOTfiSlc. From
this point prices followed the trend of
wheat, weakening under profit tnklrtg by
large and small holders until the rally
to 4!H'?i 49T4jC, lljlV: under yesterday's
flnnl figure, local receipts ' were more
liberal than anticipated, 53 enrw, 56 grad
ing contract, ana this fact contriDutea to
the weaker tone.
In oats, as in wheat and corn, profit
taking wns the dominating disposition. The
close showed a loss in juiy or thc at w-vi
69tsc, a shade above the bottom and a re
cession from iVfi4o at tne opening,
Loral recelDts Were 118 car.
Trade In provisions was only moderate

and a limited demand neutralised the er

CATTLE There ware not ennuch cattle
here to make a market this morning and
for the week receluia show but lime
change from- last week. As compared with
the same week of last year, though, there
Is a decrease of about 10,iu0 head. It will
be remembered that during June of last
year cattle receipts were exceptionally
heavy for the time ef year.
The beef steer market this week hna
been a source of much satisfaction to all
concerned, prices moved steadily upward
every day, with the exception of Friday,
when packers acted a little bearish, but
closing prices are all the way from 20 to 35
cents nigner lor tne week on all desirable
grades. There seems to be a- liberal de
mand for both choice heavy cattle and
choico light to medium weights. In other
woras gooa cattle 01 wnatever weignt sen
to good advantage. Even the commoner
grades of steers have void well this week,
though of course they have . hardly im
proved as much ts the choice olios. Onod
to choice cattle may be quoted from $5.60
to tj.7t &nd strictly prime cattle would
doubtless sell riKht around $0.00. Fair to
good cattle sell from Ij.OO to 15.50 and the
common to fair from o4.25 to $490. These
prices are ngnt close to tl higher than
those In force a year Ago. ,
The market on cows and heifers has also
been In very satisfactory condition and tho
choicest grades have improved about as
much as the steers, t'tock that shows any
signs of grass, however, no matter If -of
good flesh, have shown, no improvement,
and canners and cutters have been neg
lected all the week and are certainly no
more than steady. Commission men- are
cautioning r their shippers to watch the
market on Kramers clopely. as packers are
apt to pounu prices on mat class at moHt
any time, Oood to choloe heifers sell from
$4. 60 to 84.85 and something fancy would
bring around $5.00. Good te choice' cows
sell from 84.00 to $4.60. fair to arood from
i3.au to ,4.uo, Detter grancs or -grass cows
n .good flesh from' $3.00613.50" and canners
and- cutters from $1.76 to- $3.00. '
The market on bulls is 26&35c higher for
the week. Oood to ohotce grndea sell from
$4 to $4.50, fair to rood from 83.60 to $4 rind
common graaes irom . ia.au aown. vni
calves are a little higher, the bulk of them
now selling from 84 to 80. 60.
Receipts ot stockers and feeders have
been exceedingly light all the week and
until Boom r riuny ine maraet neia up in
good shape. The medium-priced cattle hnve
been selling witnout mucn trouble, but some
of those that speculators paid from $4.25
to $4.40 for have been moving very slowly
and the market Is decidedly weaker on that
clans. It seems that the demand from .the
country for those high-priced cattle Is
rather limited. Good to choice rattle have
been selling from $4.15 to $4.40. fair to good
from $3.90 to $4.15 and common grades from
$3.90 down. Representative Sales:

HOGS There was a fairly liberal run of
hogs in sight this morning, but the demand
from all sources was In good shape and the
market ruled fairly active and 2ii6c higher
than yesterday's average. The bulk of the
offerings was disposed of In fairly good sea
Bon, but toward the close after packers had
their more urgent orders filled the market
glowed down a little and the closed was
weak, part of the advance being lest. The
hulk of the hosts sold from 84.50 to 84.66,
with the ohoice hogs going largely from
$4-65 to $4 S. with Jirlme loads from $t.65
to 4.7b. '1 ne ton price was piua nr at vt-rjr
prime load of red hogs weighing 286 pounds.
Tho common and light stuff sold from $4.60
down.
The supply of hogs this week has not been
at all txcesilve at this market As com
pared with UjKt week there Is a falling off
amounting to about 10,0o0 head and as coin
pared with the same week last year there
Is a decrease of about 8.000 head. The mar
ket has fluctuated buck and forth to some
extant, but the general tendency has been
upward and prices have averaged consid
erably higher than last week. Closing
prices are about 2!Wo higher than the
close of last week, but the market last
week cloeed at the high point for that week.

MAN WITH CELLULOID NOSE
Wants to Smoke, bnt Afraid to Try,
for Fear Ills Nose Will
Take Fire.
(Copyright by New York Herald Co., J904.)
NEW YORK, Juno 4.-New York Herald
Service Special to The Bee.) Physicians
in the Harlem hospital do not like to tlUnk
of what would happen to one of their pa-,
tlenta If he should, In a moment "of thought
leBsnesa, attempt to light a cigar. He has
been cautioned againet such a raah aot, aa
the surgeons are of the opinion that such
g proceeding would be attended with un
pleasant consequences. H4 baa an artifi
cial nose of celluloid.
Up to the present time they have been
unable to figure out a fireproof device to
protect the patient from harm in the event
of flames coming near him.
How the man came to lose his nose Is a
secret he guards well. Known only as
"John Doe," he has been under treatment
t the Institution for an affliction of the re
maining section ot his proboals. Pretend
ing to be hard of hearing, he has success
fully parried all of the surgeon's questions
concerning himself, and he has become
known at the hospital as "the nan of mys
tery." In the matter of dress the man differs
from the usual patient at the dispensary.
His clothing Is of good quality and hs
seems In prosperous circumstances. At
various times he has shaken off the reti
cence that Is one of his characteristics and
he has told tho Burgeons enough to con
vince them that he comes from a wealthy
family. Ha Intimated that the reason he
selected the hospital fof treatment was be
causa Ids friends were not likely to dls-
...m tn 4 si
...117 IM 4 II

rover him there, ai the institution la tlf
uated In an out-of-way quarter. He tialuf
the hospital for treatment at regular In
tervals. -
"The man ts a pusile to us all." anld two
of the surgeons yesterday. "He keeps hie
secret well and none of us has been able
to learn anything about him. I gather
from the bits of information that he has
told that he waa once an Inveterate smoker.
I believe he lost his nose as the result Of a
dog'l bite. He has admitted that the cel
luold nose deprives him of the enjoyment
of a Bmoke, a detail which he keenly de
plores. If the man should attempt to light
a cigar with that contrlvmnrf on hla face
It would bo disastrous. We have cautioned
him agalost such an act of folly."
IMMIGRANTS MUS1M.AVE CASH
Commission Formnlatea ftnles Regard
ing Admission to This
Country.
(Copyright by New York Herald Ca, 1904
NEW YORK, June 4.-(Now York Herald
Service, Special to The Bee.) A set cf
rules Is being prepared by the Commission
of Immigration, specifying the circum
stances under which- immigrants must have
In their posfesilon on arrival greater of
less sums of money In order to be admitted
to the country.
On'the ground that they, have beooma
public charges miuiy aliens iiave, Jn tha
last six months, been sent back to Ellis
island for deportation. It Is this circum
stance which has caused the commlsslou
to act. Hordes of Immigrants arrive her
without enough money to carry them to
their destination, and .are compelled to
telegraph to friends for funds to conttnut
their Journey. Heretofore Immigrants held
for lack of money hnve been allowed to
ask their frirnds for as little as 85. Ths
commission has Issued an order that In
cases whero it Is necessary for an Immi
grant to telegraph to friends for money
each telegram shall request $10. and In
proper cases $20 or $26. Only In exceptional
cases shall the amount asked bs as low
as $5. This order has created some anxiety
among the agents of ths societies of dif
ferent nationalities who are stationed at
Ellis Island to look after the Inter.-sts ot
their people While tho Increase . Will. It
Is believed, serve to hold up many undesir
able Immigrants, some of th'e agents say
that tt will work hardship to others -who
are of a desirable class.
It Is stated by some of the society agent
that these people are warned before 1 wav
ing -home rot to carry any money with
them for feor of losing It or being robbed.
Thin Is to be as rmich an evidence of
good faith on tho part of the relative as
for the necessary expenses of ths Immi
grant on routo. Often the relatives cannot
understand why this demand la made and
the Immigrant Is held several days at ths
Island ' while correspondence phseB 'back
and forth explaining the situation. All this
time the steamship comparilcg, who- are re
sponsible fos these aliens coming here, are
required to pay the expense of their de
tention on the Island.
The rules being prepared by the commis
sioners of Immigration are for Ihe guidance
of inspectors In such cases, and they will
disseminate - the Information therein
throughout Europe bo far as possible to
guide prospcctlvo Immigrants.
