CHICAGO , July 20. Crop advices were
favorable as to wheat today , outside markets
were lower , the selling here was free , and
September , compared with last night , closed
with a loss of % c. Other markets were
firm , corn closing Vic higher , oats Vic
higher , and provisions higher all around.
Wheat averaged rather dull. Opening
trades were at from % c to Vic decline , at
C24c for September , and after selling up V4c
to Vic , cased off % c , ruled steady and closed
with September at GL'Vic. The feeling was
weaker from the start. Foreign crop advices
were generally favorable , and private advices
reported the crop turning out much better
than anticipated. All outsldo markets were
Off , and Toledo was raid to be making bids
on more wheat. There was free selling
by elevator people againstpurchases In the
country , which acted as a weakening fea
ture. Local receipts were about as expected ,
417 cars , and the estimate for tomorrow
was considerably larger 650 cars. Receipts
In the northwest keep up well , larger than a
year ago , and were commented upon , consid
ering the yield there this year and last year.
Corn was generally firm. September
opened at 44c , at from % c to Ic advance ,
Bold up a fraction more , broke from V4c to'
% c , rallied from % e to Vic , ruled steady and
closed at 43c. There was an active de
mand at the start by local shorts and coun
try buying orders were again numerous ,
the failure of the predicted rains to mater
ialize causing a very bullish feeling to pre
vail. Advices from the Interior were a
little on the sensational order as to crop
damage and added to the firmness.
Oats were firmer on crop damage reports
and fair buying. The range for September
was % c.
Provisions were firm on lighter hog re
ceipts , Homo buying by packers and the
strength In corn. Compared with last night
September pork Is ITVic higher , September
lard lOc higher , and September ribs lOc
higher.
Freight rates are quoted at from % c to
'Ic , wheat OP corn , to Port Huron or Buffalo.
Estimated receipts for tomorrow : Wheat ,
C4C cars ; corn , 420 cars ; oats , 180 cars ; hogs ,
24,000 head.

OMAHA CiKNKHAL MARKETS.
Condition of Tndn nnd Quotation ! on
.Staple mill I'll 11 oy I'rodiu-n.
The receipts of good country butter contlnilo
very light. The market wns ndvnnecd yesterday
on packing "tuck , tin- buyout raising their bids
Ic over former quotations.
The hay market ImH been pretty well cleaned
up ( his week nnd the demand I * now gtenlrr
than the supply , the fresh receipts being IlKht.
Price * are llrm no quoted below.
The poulliy market IK very slow nnd quota
tions me the lowest that they Imvc been In
Koma time , an will be seen from the prices
given below. Old fowls might In some Instances
have brought ' 4c more thnn quotation * . In n
small way. The dressers were bidding still less
for spring chicken * than the prices quoted be
low. Thu poultry trade ai'pr.ui ) to be slow nnd
wi-ak all oNer the country.
The flier-no maiket Is naming In strength
owing to the fiilluic of pnstuiaRe In Wisconsin
and sonic othes cheese pioduclng localities.
The egg market remains about steady nt pic-
vlous quotations. The number of pnor eggs coinIng -
Ing to innikft Is KO huge that iK-alers complain
that It costs more to candle the eggs than they
nre able to get out of them.
The statistics of the Canadian egg trade nre
at hand and some Idea of the extent
of this branch of the pioducihuslius <
may be gained fiom that source. In
] ts'Jl J.OJO.OOU dozens weru exported to
Great llrllnln , 2.500,000 to the t'ntled Slates ;

dozens sent actons the ocean , and Il. < t00. ( 0
dozens across the line. Altogether , In the llvr
) cars , C.inada exported about 50.000,000 dozen
eggs. In IVJ1 the McKlnley tariff of 5c n dozen
on eggs from Canada caused a duel ease of ex
ports , rvnclilnic about 500,000 dozens. In 1803
cxpoitH of eggs were only one-sixth of the total
In ISM. It will be seen that the volume of In

In proportion to the decrease1 of American egg

A car of California peaches , plums nnd peals
wns offered nt auction yesterday morning. The
fiult , with the exception of the plums , was In
had shape , nnd there was very little of It that
woultl stand . shipping out on orders. The
pi Ices paid were strong , consldeilng the quality
of tli fruit. Today a car of pears will be
offered for sale and probably u mixed car of
fruit.
Reports from Los Angeles give the conditions
of the southern California fruit crop ns follows :
Ventura Cjunty Fruit Is In good condition ;
nprlmts me nbaut ready to move ; the early
potato \ebi ! Is good.
Los Aniji les County Apricots nre small , owing
to dryness ; other fruits slow In growth. More
fruit than usual will bu dried In Pomona.
Apricot drying Is In full oiicratlon , nnd the can
nery Is running day nnd night on the crop , which
Is large.
Pan Ilcrnardlno County AVarm , clear weather
Is maturing fruit fust. Drying lias begun on
nprlcots. No green fruit or berries nre being
moved , and many ranchers are drying their own
cn > ps.
Orange County The nprlcM crop In this counts-
Is henvy and drying operations are In full pro
gress. Prunes promise fair ; English wnlnuts
will be a heavy crop ; vineyards arc looking well ,
inlsln grapes promise line quality.
San Diego Coutny Melons liavo made their

STOCKS AND IIONUS.
Ore t Hulk of tlin Transactions on 'Cliuiigo
Involved htigitr.
NEW YORK , July 20. On the Stock ex
change today the great bulk of the transac
tions was In Sugar shares , some large
blocks of which were unloaded In the belief
that a compromise Is probable at Washington
on the sugar schedule by which the refining
Interest will lose the percentage of protec
tion for which the trust has fought so
fiercely during the past month. Selling
began with the opening of business , when
a prominent commission house offered a part
of a 2uOO-share lot. Timid holders of long
stock took alarm and sought to liquidate ,
thereby swelling the volume of the sales.
There were no supporting orders In the mar
ket to any extent and prices wore forced
dawn gradually , uncovering eome stop loss
orders , which also added to the selling
movement and Increased the depression.
The opening sale was at 104V& , being Vi per
cent above yesterday's final sale , and then
a gradual decline took place , with occas
ional fractional recoveries , until & decline of
274 per cent had been effected , thin figure
being reached shortly before the close , In
the final trading a recovery of Vi per cent
wan made , making the loss on the day 2 %
per cent. St. Paul was next In point of
activity , but very far behind , and fluctuated
within a range of % per cent , closing within
H Per cent o ( the highest point touched and
Vi per cent above lust night. London was n
seller of the stock In the early dealing ! ,
causing a decline of % per cent , but In the
afternoon purchases to cover short contracts
Imparted strength to the ( peculation In the
shares , and there U said to be still a large
uncovered ibort Interest In the stock. There
was some buying of HurlliiKton & Qtilncy for
the Boston account , which sent the shares
up % per cent , the latest being the hlghctt
price touched , Hock Island made a gain of
% per cent. A denial by ono of the ill-
rectors of the Hock lelnird of the statement
that there was some tlonbt about the pay
ment of n dividend for the current quarter
tended to strengthen nil the granger group.
Distilling was In fairly good buying de
mand , purchases being Induced by an offi
cial announcement by President Grcenhut
that the company hnd not mddo a. further
bond Issue , has no Intention of doing so and
cannot do so unless by a three-fourths vote
ot the shareholders. An advance of I1/ per
cent wns established , from which n reaction
of 1,4 per cent took place at the close.
In the rest of the list the dealings were
very light , and ns a rule the usually active
shares were firmly held. The bond market
was generally firm all day.
The Post's London cablegram snya : It
wns a holiday innrltet today. Silver was
back to 28Vid- Supplies nre coming forward
freely. The Hank of Kngland's reserve In
creased this week. The coin nnd bullion
Increased 160,000 , ot which only 8.000
were from abroad , the Influx being 13,000
from India nnd 83,000 from Australia and
the cfllux 63,000 to Sweden nnd 35,000 to
the continent. Today 35,000 was taken for
South Africa. The forged acceptance nnd
Coutts bank notes have produced a strict
searching of names on bills.
The Evening Post says : While Sugar cer
tificates were falling a decided movement of
recovery developed elsewhere. The pro
fessional seers who sold clown yesterday's
market on last week's crop rumors found
real holders of shares exactly as responsible
ns usual. After n futile effort to frighten
people by vales cabled through London , the
buying back of yesterday's short contracts
began , nnd nn Irregular but general advance
ensued. On the recovery much wns made
ot current declarations that 'approaching
granger dividends will be paid In full.
The following were the closing quotations
on tbe leading stocks of the New York ex
change today :

TUUIISDAY , July 28.
There was a light run of cattle today , but
there \vcro plenty of hogs , The receipts
were 1,750 cattle , 12,500 hogs and 111 sheep ,
as against 2,429 cattle , 10 259 hogs.and 7C5
sheep on Thursday of last week. As com
pared with yesterday , there was n gain of
about 1,300 cattle and 1,000 hogs. Thus far
this week the receipts foot up 7,000 cattle ,
10,250 hogs and 1,277 sheep , as against C.OI7
cattle , 2,518 hogs and 2,033 sheep for the
first , four days of last week , There Is a small
gain In cattle and n very large Increase In
the receipts of hogs for the present week.
CATTLE The offerings of choice dry fe < l
steers were light. The local packers were
about the only buyers , and they did not
appear to want very many. The general
market was Blow and dull all through. The
handy fat cattle brought steady to strong
prices , but the demand for the heavy cattle
was light and buyers generally were making
very low bids. Several loads averaging 1,088
to 1,313 brought 14.10 , but everything else
went at prices under $4.
The market on cows and mixed stuff did
not show much change. The offering * of
tills class of stock were quite liberal. There
was considerable Inquiry for desirable fat
stock , but the common grades were very
low. Quite a number of loads of the best
cows sold at $1.75 to $2.50 , while the com
mon block brought $1 to $1.50.
Stockers and feeders were very Blow sale.
Local dealers had about all the cattle that
they wanted , and , with the country demand
cut off , there were not many buyers for the
offerings. Any prospective buyer that might
have been In the yards would have been
frightened out bythe hot winds , which
were the worst ever experienced In the yards ,
and which farmers claimed would be suffi
cient to kill corn In a very short time. The
majority of the sales were made at from
$2 to $2.45. Representative tales :
DHESSGD IIEEF.
HOGS In spite of thn fact that the re
ceipts have been very heavy all the week ,
amounting to a gain over last week of close
to 12,000 , the demand appears to keep up
with the Increase. The market was about
Gc higher than yesterday , and was active
nt the advance. Every one was buying
and all appeared to have liberal orders , and
It was not long until the bulk of the offer
ings had changed hands. The sales ranged
from $1.C5 to | 4,05 , with the bulk at $4.75
to $4.85. Yesterday the bulk of the hogs
sold at $4.70 to $4.80 , while on Thursday of
last week the majority of the sales were at
the same prices as today. Representative

The Alperson troubles have been In course-
of ventilation In the courts for several
months. The case was a legacy to Judge ,
Scott from Judge Ambrose when the latter
left on his vacation , and when court con
vened yesterday It scmcd ; that reconcilia
tion between the husband and wife was Im
possible. In the first place Alperson had In
stituted divorce proceedings against his wlfo.
When the case was heard before Judge Am
brose the woman presented her side of the
story and from the evidence the court con
cluded that the blame was all on the mas
culine side ot the family. He refused to
grant the divorce anil Alperson was ordered
to give bonds for the maintenance of his wlfo
and children.
It was one of the provisions of the order
that Alperson should pay to Howard Bald-
rldge , as trustee , $500 , for the support of the
wife. He was also to keep his stock of
merchandise at Eleventh street and Capitol
avenue intact , so that In the event that the
money was not forthcoming the trustee could
sell the goods and apply the proceeds for that
purpose.
The other day the attorneys for the Injured
wife appeared in court and represented that
Alperson was secretly disposing of the goods
and as they produced several affidavits lu
support of the assertion Judge Scott ordered
John Lewis to take charge of the goods as
receiver and to dispose of them according to
his Judgment.
CUPID'S JOU WORKED OVER.
Yesterday Alpcrson appeared before the
court to protest against the Injustice of ( .Mesa
proceedlnes. lie said that It was virtually
turnlnc him out of his own doors and de
priving him of his means of earning a liv
ing. The court proceeded to read him a lec
ture on the duties of husbands and wives.
"You cannot do here as they do In Russia ,
where you came from , " remarked Judge-
Scott , "there the woman Is always ground
down and the man Is all-powerful. But
this is a free country , and you must treat
with respect the woman you have sworn to.
love and cherish. "
Mrs. Alperson was In the room at the
time with her ch'ldrcn , a half dozen small ,
bits of humanity , the oldest of whom was
not over 8 cr 9 years of age. Pointing to.
the infantile exhibit the court called Alper-
son's attention to the fact that they were his.
children and that It was no more than sim
ple Justice that he should be compelled to.
proytda for them.
The court grew enthusiastic and painted a.
picture ot fatherly affection that made the
forsaken wlfo bury her face In her hands ,
while Alperton wriggled in his chair aa.
though he would much rather bo somewhere-
else. Then the Judge gave his decision :
"I want ycu two people , to go into my pri
vate room' " said he , "and make this up.
Remember these 1 ttle children who belong :
to each of you alike. Per their sakes If not
for your own happiness remember the time
when you were all the world to CRch other-
and forget that you have ever had a bitter
thought. I want you to go Into that room
and kiss each other. Do that the first thing :
you do , and then the rest will bo easier. "
The couple did as directed. They went
Into the private office and closed the door.
Their children accompanied them and In half
an hour the hatchet was burled and all was ,
peace and harmony. The court proceedings-
were abruptly terminated. Judge Scott or

of the proceeds of the estate to Joshua.
Ellor , a brother of the Judge , taking as se
curity a mortgage on a piece of land situ
ated out In the pand hills In the extreme
west portion of the state , along the Colorado
rado line.
Some weeks after this occurred a friend ,
of the family , who Is connected with tho-
land department of the Union Pacific rail
road , surmised that the Interests of tho-
child were being endangered , and had tho-
land looked up. The appraisers reported ,
that the land on which the mortgage was-
held was not worth over $300 at the most
liberal estimate , and when this condition of
affairs was laid before Judge Baxter he-
Immediately removed Ilamcl from the ad
ministratorship and appointed Adams In his-
place. The present suit Is brought to re
cover something over $200 , which It la
claimed Hamel still holds out of the estate-
and refuses to turn over.

of her children to the Children's Aid asso
ciation some time In April , and now wants
to get them back Into her possession. After
hearing the evidence the court ruled that
the release held good , and the case was
dismissed.
