CHICAGO , April 30.-Wheat turned short
round today and slid down to C3c for
July , closing lc lower than yesterday.
Weak foreign markets and big shipments
from exporting countries encouraged free
selling and caused the decline. July corn
closed ? 4c lower , May oats Uc lower , and
provisions at declines , The bearish features
In the news for two days past , added to
another batch of discouraging Items re
ceived this morning , proved too much for the
bully In the wheat market , The price broke
Ic per bu. ns soon as the trndlng commenced ,
and although May was bought nt the opening
decline , the entire surroundings of the mar
ket were too determinedly bearish to encourage -
courage any heavy purchases. A genernl
showery condition prevailed over the most
drouthy portion of the wheat belt In Kan
sas nnd Nebraska , with a low barometer
nnd conditions favorable for more rain In
the same locnlttlen. Including the exports
from this side. O.SJXOOij bit. was the amount
put ulloat for the Importing countries last
week , and their requirements were only
6,700,000 bu. per week ; thus they were loaded
up with 2,8iiy,000 bu. more than they con
sumed. The Liverpool market was llrst
quoted steady , but later weak and from Id
to Hid lower. The weather In France was
reported to be brilliant , nnd n private cable-
Brain from there Haiti the wheat nnd Hour
market wan rapidly declining. Uerlln was
reported 3 murk , or 2c , per bu. lower for
wheat. The receipts nt Minneapolis nnd
Duluth numbered MO curs , compared with
288 cars on Tuefday a week ngo , nnd
against only ninety-nine cars nt both places
on the corresponding day of the year before.
The total receipts at primary markets were
213,000 bu. , while a week ago 233,000 bu. was
the total received , and a year ago only 175,000
bu. Kxport clearances from the Atlantic
seaboard comprised 119.000 bu. of wheat and
76,000 bbs. ! of Hour , or equal together to
456,000 bu. July opened with sellers nt from
CIV4o to Klldc , and before It reacted nny It
touched ( Mi : . It rose from the latter point
to Cl * c , with a sale or two ns high ns ) &l4c ! ,
nnd then It sagged gradually to about the
lowest llgure made near the opening , and
Kteadled its-elf around there- for a time.
About the time of the receipt of the Ilrad-
ntreet statement the market was In shape
for another break. That statement made
the world's decrease of wheat and Hour for
the week only 2.249,000 Int. ; the decrease of
3,377llOo bu. In this country being reduced by
an Increase In Kuropenn nnd nllont of 1,128-
000 bu. On that the price of July dropped
to C3o. The closing cables from the conti
nent Indicated extreme weakness. The de
cline to C3c was followed by a reaction of
C3Wo bid near the. close on the working of
a 60,000-bu. cargo for export from here.
There was a pressure to cell again , which
crushed the price to G3Uc as the closing boll
sounded , but before the crowd got out of the
pit C3Hc was once more paid ,
Corn was again dominated by the favor
able weather and the slow demand by the
eastern users of corn. Some lots were taken
for shipment , KGS.OuO bu.'freight room being
chartered today , although the cash demand
was generally reported to be slow. The
principal business In the trading was In the
way of n changing over from. May to July.
July opened at lSc , sellers , dropped off
gradually to 47'Hc , recovered to 4S'c ( , and
closed nt 474c. The receipts here were 408
cars.
Another active day was passed In the oats
market. Trading was principally In the
way of exchanging. The tone of the mar
ket was weaker nnd values declined. The
cause of the weakness In the May de
livery was the free disposing of the same
by longs , who were encournged to do so by
the good Inquiry from the elevator people.
Then the stocks of contract oats In store
showed nn Increase of 232.000 bu. , which was
also Influential In creating lower prices.
May started nt ffiVic , sold at 28y4c , declined
to 27-ic. sold again nt ! 8c. nnd closed at
27'4c. July ranged from 28'Ao to 28 0 to
27e. resting nt 2SUc.
The provision market was again dull nnd
heavy under the Influence of larger re
ceipts of hogs than have been generally
looked for. The day's run was 23,000 head ,
nnd for tomorrow 1T7.000 head nre expected.
Pork for July declined from $12.30 to J12.17H
nnd closed nt J12.271J , npnlnst $12.I7',4 yester
day. Lard for July closed lOc lower for the
day and ribs 12'/4c lower.
Estimated receipts for tomorrow : Wheat ,
21 cars ; corn , 276 cars ; oats , 182 cars ; hogs ,
27.000 head.
The leading futures ranged ns follows :

NEW YORK , April 30. The result of today' *
speculation on the Stock exchange. Is a very
genernl depreciation In values. At the opening

were lower and In the early dealings a further
decline took place , In which the grangers suf
fered most , the active list receding from U to 74
per cent , while Cordage broke , 2 per cent.
Leather shares were prominent nnd roue 1 per
cent for the common nnd 1V4 per cent for the
preferred. The latter , however , quickly reacted
I per cent. At the end of the llrst quarter of
nn hour a buying movement was developed In
the Industrials , In which General Electric was
most prominent , all the purchasing In this stock
belnir duo to the publlcntlcn of the figures of the
annual report , which made a better showing
than had been anticipated. Oenernl Electric
moved up li per cent , Consolidated Oan 1 per
cent. Leather preferred % per cent , Sugar ? i per
cent and Chicago Ons H per cent. The Improve
ment In the railway list was In the small frac
tions. The advancing tendency wns checked
shortly after 11 o'clock , and the figures contln
ued t move downward up to 1:3' : ' ) o'clock , at
which time the Industrial group had recorded a
decline mnglng up to 1H per cent In Tobacco ,
1'i per cent In Sugar , lid per cent In Leather ,
74 per cent In Leather preferred , 1 per cent In
I -ad , % per cent In Cotton Oil nnd Consol
( dated Has nnd ? 4 per cent In Chicago Gus , In
the rallxvay list the losses were confined to smal *
fractions , except In Delaware & Hudson , whlcli
broke 1 per cent. Northern 1'aclllo preferred
sold up Hi per cent before noon , but reacted
i per cent. Sugar nnd Leather came Into good
buying before 2 o'clock nnd each advanced 1 per
cent. Leather preferred rallied } J per cent and
the rest or the list from U to ? 4 per cent. After
delivery hour speculation again became depressed
and continued weak to the clo . Ilaltlmoro &
Ohio sold off 1 > 4 per cent. Cordage preferred 1VS
per cent , Cordage common 114 per cent , Leather
preferred nnd Wheeling & Like Erie 1 per ccnl
( the InttiT recovering the entire loss ) , and the
general list from H to J per cent. The boni )
maiket V.UB active and strong until near the
rlos > > , when prices enfcd oft In sympathy wltli
the heavlnefs of the share speculation. The sales
were $2,417,000. of which $223,000 were Northern
Paclllo conscl 5s .
The Evening Post's London cable says : The
stock markets were quiet' today , because of the
holiday tomorrow , but tlie tone wns generally
firmer. Americans were nrm , closing under the
Iwat , except for Northern Pacific prefeired , which
was bid for In the street. Tha American Inqulrj

BOSTON. April 30.-Thcro Is n slight clmngo
In the volume of sales In the wool market this
week , although prices remain the same ns Inft

broken and the proximity of the arrival of new
wool tends to make buyers purchase t > parlmly
so they can nwiiH the nrrlvnl ot the new clips
before putting In new lines. A largo amount of
wool will be needed In the near future , accordIng -
Ing to reports from all sections. The movement
In fleece wools Is slow , and although Muck *

The first hnlf of tlio week was warm nnd
dry and crops generally wire bgtnnlng to
suffer , but the showers of the last three
clays have relieved this condition and tlio
week closes with prospects very favorable.
Temperature hns been from seven degrees
nbovc the normal In the western part of the
state to nine degrees above In the eastern ,
and there lias been more than the normal
amount of sunshine.
The rain has been generally above the
normal. Nearly nil parts of the state have
been visited during ; tlio last half of the
week by showers , many of them heavy ,
exceeding1 nn Inch over most ot the state
and over two Inches In several localities.
The week has been a very favorable one
for tlio progress of farm work , which Is
now even farther In advance of the season
than It was n week ago , being fully two
weeks earlier than the average.
Small grain continues for the most part
In good condition , but has not grown OH well
ns In previous weeks , owing to lack of
moisture the early part of the week.
A large acreage of sugar beets lias been
planted In various localities. Corn planting
has been general over the state , and the
. early planted Is coming up.
Further reports ns to the frost which oc
curred the last of last week Indicate that
no damage of consequence was done , and
fruit prospects never looked better.

ths medicine and I hnvo not had ono partlclo
of illstrcsn or dllllculty since. And all this
In the fnco of the fsct that the best doctora

want half a dozen packages to distribute
among my friends here who are very anx

The teason why Stuart's Dyspepsia , Tnbletn
are EO successful In curing Indigestion anil
stomach , troulilo and the reason why It never
disappoints those who need It and use It la
because nothing Is claimed for It except what
It will actually perform. It Is not a cure-all
and no such claims nro made for It. U Is
prepared for the solo purpose of curing Dys-
pepsln and the various forms of Indigestion.
There Is scarcely a patent inedlclno mndtt
li'jt what Is claimed to cure Dyspepsia aa
well ns n hundred other troubles. When ni
a matter of fact a remedy to euro Dyspepsia
must be prepared especially for that ana
nothing else and among all the remedies ,
patent rostrums , bitters , etc. , so extensively
advertised you will find that Stuart's Dys-
pepsln Tablets Is tlio only ono advertised as
a cure for Dyspepsia and nettling elso. The
remedy Is prepared by the Stmrt Chemical
Co. of Martlial , Mich. , andifor sale by alt
druggists at 50 cents per package , and It
you suffer from nny form of stomach < le
