CHICAGO , Juno 10. [ Special Telegram to
TUB BKB. ] The wheat market opened strong
nnd somewhat higher on weather news con
strued to bo unfavorable to harvesting In the
southwest and to the development of spring
wheat in the northwest. Too much rain Is
urged In the ono case and not enough In the
other. Juno roao from 10la to 80 > c , July
from Tli } to TTJ TT c , nnd December from
77 o to jftc. Unconfirmed reports of ram
In the Hcd Hiver valley and rather more
Wnlullty In the nrovalllng temperature gave
a bearish tone to the market , and thereafter
the tendency of prices was to decline. The
market cnsod off about } { c , and atm the do-
cllno did not display any vigorous powers of
rucovery. The visible supply showed a de
crease of 1,313,000 bushels , which , tr.ough
largo was below the expectations , The total
Is noxv down to 18,802,032 , bushels , against
25,753,000 bushels a year ago , and 42,112,000
bushels two years ago. The Chicago stocks
nro only 3,005,000 bushels , all hold ; and Now
York stocks nro 3,872,000 , bushels. The experts -
ports of wkcutt and flour from the Atlantic
ports for the last week foot up 1.30'J.UOO
bushels , against 849,000 bushels for the cor
responding week last year. The clearances
from Now York to-day were 181,000 bushels ,
and anywhere from 10 to 15 boat loads were
reported ns "now business. " Cables wcro
dull , but n decrease of nearly 70,000 bushels
in New York stocks , In ono week , Indicates
the existence of n tangible foreign demand
for the property. In the loe.il market a falrde-
mand for cash wheat Is reported , and the prop
erty is firmly held at the material udvanco
from the .prices ruling n week ago. St.
Louis fired In n grist of bear news , nnd re
ported an active demand from country
points for sacks to store wheat in , ono firm
reporting the shipment of 01,000 sacKs last ,
week. Cash wheat Is firmly held in bt.
Louis , howuvor , as well ns elsewhere. Crop
news from the northwest arc of a contra
dictory character , but the weight of testi
mony sunports the theory thnt the lied river
country Is In urgent need of rain , and that ,
at best , only an average crop of spring
wheat can bo raised. The Minneapolis
market is well supported these days. The
principal typo of speculation , to-day , was
the forthcoming of the government report.
There were fewer tips and pointers in circu
lation regarding the report than usual , but
the common opinion seemed to bo that
it would show an impairment of 5 to G
points In the condition from the date of the
last report. The idea was expressed , how
ever , that the desire to bull granger stocks
might Imvo been strong enough to color the
, reports of correspondents * to some extent ,
and make tlio situation appear bettor than
the facts warranted. No especial weight at
tached to that Idea : however , the local
market ruled dull and spiritless during the
last hour , with the price of July and Decem
ber dragging below 77c , and , most of the
time , around or under 70c. The last prices
were as follows : Juno 89c. July 70c ,
September 74J c , December 70 c , and the
year 74c. As compared with Saturday's
closing range , this sot of figures shows a
very small change , except that Juno is % c
higher.
Cold , rainy weather prevailing over a largo
nrea of the corn belt , together with dimin
ishing receipts were the causes which Influ
enced the minds of speculators and produced
a firm market and higher prices. The viable
supply was expected to show a very little in
crease for the week and the actual figures
showing 422,000 bushels increase was some
what of a disappointment to the speculators
lor n rlso. The receipts were a trifle less
than the previous estimates and for tomorrow
row , which will Include two days' inspec
tion , only 530 cars arc expected. There was
no great activity in either the cash or specu
lative branches of business. There were no
reports from the English markets owing to
the holiday there , but the domestic markets
appeared to take their tone from the firm
ness prevailing hero and wcro all sllchtly
higher. The export clearances were liberal
nnd the shipments hence were fairly en
couraging to holders. The strength of the
market was helped early in the day by the
firmness In wheat ; but later on , when this
support was withdrawn , th ro was still
enough of the early firmness left In corn to
show thnt it was upheld chiefly by circum-
Btancos peculiar to itself. The closing prices
show gains of % e over those current at the
close of business on Saturday.
In oats the visible supply showed but little
change , while there was the handsome do-
crcuso , last week , of 550,035 bushels In local
locks , owing to the excellent shipping de
mand. This was nn element of strength , to
day , with ono sale of 100,000 bushels
in June , taken for immediate dellv-
oty. The speculation market was
quiet but strong curly , and from } to
fc higher- followed by a later tone ot easi
ness. The shorts bought considerable and
there was some changing into long futures ,
but the demand was soon satisfied. July atone
ono time touched i222c ! , nnd September
22c and baclc to 23fc , with a fair trade in
June around 22c. No. 13 oats , to go to
store , were } { c higher , nt 23o.
Jn provisions , tno week opened with no
ndw feature , and very little llfo to trade.
The shorts continued their buying of short
ribs , but In lard and pork there was no move
ment to speak of. Outside orders for all
description of products wora limited , and
the small business witnessed was transacted
wholly by local traders. Values wore hold
steady , and fluctuations were confined to
narrow ranges ; in pork , their limits were
only from 5o to TKo ; in lard , 2Kc , and In
short ribs from 'la to 5c.

amounting o G@10c. The market was fnlrly
nctlvo and the most doslrnblo of the hooves
wcro soon nicked up. The beef nnd shipping
steers sold nt n range of f3.40@-i.10. largely
nt$3.55ijt.oo ( , the quality not being very
good on nn average , although there were n
few bunches of very good beeves. Butch
ers' stock was scarce nnd sold nt steady
prices , nnd the same thing would apply
equally well to stock cattle.
Hogs.
The hog market was nctlvo at nn ndvanco
of 5@10c nnd the receipts were not long In
changing hands. Over one-half of nil the
offerings went nt Sl.10. Light hogs were
scnrco nnd there were not enough to supply

A MILLION DROWNED.
CIiinn'H Grcnt Flood of 1887 Recalled
by tlio Johnstown Horror.
The dreadful loss of life and. destruc
tion of property by the breaking of a
reservoir near Johnstown , Ponn. , re
calls , among other great dibastors o ! a
like Kind ; erie that marked tlio close of
the year 1887 in China as ono or mourn
ing for millions. In regard to this flood ,
caused by the Honag-Ho river breaking-
through its restraining walls , The Cin
cinnati Enquirer London News Bureau ,
on January 5 , cabled as follows :
' 'The Rpccial correspondent of the
London Standard at Shanghai gives n
graphic picture of the trcmondpus loss
of life in China from the overflow of the
Ilonng-IIo river and a tremendous fam
ine Unit is threatened. It says that ono
sixth of the area of the Garden of China ,
as No-Nan is styled , ia converted into a
gigantic hike , with only pagoda tops or
the towers of high walls to mark the
sites where once stood prosperous cities
of thousands of inhabitants. The rest
of the country is overflowed with
wretched fugitives. In hundreds of in
stances men of wealth to-day gaze on
the land sea , stunned , hungry , stupid
and dejected , with neither rags lo
cover them nor food to satisfy the
cravings of-thcir appetites.
The inundation commenced in the
little district , a short distance from
Kaifung-Fu , ono of the largest cities in
the province , and in ono instant four
miles of tolkl bunk ot stone , brick , sand
and clay was swept away. In the dis
tricts of Ching-Chow and Chencow 3,000
largo villages were ingulphcd in a few
moments , and but few lives were saved ,
ns the deluge occurred in the night
time. The extent of the disaster can
bettor bo understood by adding a state
ment that the territory is about as
largo as Wales , and moro thickly popu
lated , and that territory was inndo a
raging sea , und in it all were drowned.
The population of the district can not
fall short of that of Iowa , us the prov
ince includes 25.000,000 habitants ,
with an area of 03,000 square miles ,
and the waters cover eight thousand or
ton thousand hquuro miles of it. The
Pokin Gazette enya that when the
waters rushed into the cities , swooping
walls , houses and wholevillages away ,
the people refused to stir , and mot
death with indilTeronco , For , as is
well known , the Colestlal is a fatalist
of the most pronounced type. Accord
ing to the best estimates tlio loss of lifo
will not bo thousands or tons of thous
ands , but hundreds of thousands , white
the starving people will number a mil
lion , utterly beggars nnd dependent lorA
Utfo on charity. "
A subsequent dispatch , sent n month
later to'tho Enquirer , stated that the
loss of llfo would1 reach nearly ono mil
lion , nnd that cnscs of cannibalism had
boon discovered ,
