Increasing receipts and the growing difficulties of shippers had a bearish effect today on wheat. The result was a henvy close, at lVifi'lNc net decline, with May at $1.25V1.2r.H snd July 81.17V Other leading staples, loo. sll showed a setback; corn, c to Vc; oats, lc to and provisions, 2ic to Uo. It waa a nervoua and Irregular market In wheal, but moat of the Ume, and es pecially in the last hour, the changes were down grsde. The temporary rallies were based In the main on what provm to be Illusive hopes of a generous export business. An advance In vessel rates from Argentina gave some further traiw slant encouragement to the bulls, and so alsu did reports that the movement from Australia during January and February would be light. Gradually, however, the bears acquired the advantage, for Europeans were said to be offering to recall at a substantial reduction In prices, and there was word of a decided Increase in the stock pile at Minneapolis. Much addlUonal signifi cance in regard to the accumulation of supplies seemed apparent when announce. mrnt was made later that arrivals aH primary points totaled nearly twice tej amount of a year ago, whereas sh ments displayed a material falling off. Depression In the wheat market grew more pronounced on account of shipping contracts here being made enforclblej only as soon ss the railway embargo at the east is removed. Even on that basis, not more than 17u,nnn bushels was dis posed of. snd the aggregate of the day'w export business for the whole United Htstes waa estimated as not surpassing at the most 500.000 bushels. Corn gave way with wheat, despite some sales to Europe, and notwithstand ing new high record quotations at Llver 7ool. Receipts here wss Increasing, but very slowly. Oats reflected the action of com. Selling preasure though was not much In evidence. Provisions sagged because of the down turns In the hog market, and In grain, packers were on the selling aide, provisiona. The msrket wss fairly well auatslned, however, by speculative de mand. In later transactions the market ruled eaay, yt line with hogs. It was said that scarcity of feed was causing the sacrifice of live stock to an unusual extent. BUTTER I-ower; creamery, 2248004,0.

He was found uncon scious In his room late Thursday morn ing with the room filled with Illuminating gas that had escaped from a burner. He died Friday evening without having re Sained consciousness. Dr. A. V. Hennessey was called and after his serious condition wss noted Mr. Crossley wss hurried to Mercy hospital. Mr. Crossley retired early In the even ing, complaining of feeling tired and ill. There were no calls from the room dur ing the night, and the presence of the gas was not detected until after o'clock yesterday morning. The transom was open and employes of tho hotel quickly traced the escaping gas to the room oc cupied by Mr. Crossley. When the door wss forced he was found lying on the bed In his night rotes and entirely uncon scious.
