Wheat got n. vlRoroua hoist nt the ope
Ing. The runt'u In price for July ut tl
Btort was from SO c to Sic. Only ono
two lots were secured at the lower llgur
at the time referred to , the great bulk

from fcOo to Sic. Inside of the next ml
ute or two Uo was realized , but there w
heavy tradlntr for a few seconds nt 81 . (
The regular closlnt ; price yesterday w
79',4c. There had been no rain in the wl
tcr wheat belt In the last twenty-four houi
nnd none was predicted for that upaco
time to come. Hprlng wheat had been agn
plentifully watered nnd more rain w
promised for tonlHht , and the line proinl
It Is Rlvlnc helped to Iteep the mark
from Bcttlns beyond eontiol. Perhaps t :
chief Inllucnec In preventing the l > rlco fro
runnltiK heavenward was thu uneortuln
rcKaidliiK the nature of the forthcomli
government repot t. The Liverpool marlt
was H2 < 1 hlRher for futures anil Hd up f
spot wheat. Logan < t CO.'H private cabl
ciain from there remarkc < l that there was
milling demand for wheat , lllthutto Live

responding day of the year before. T
export clearances ftom the Atlantic BC

Corn rose at the opening In syrnpntl
with wheat , but became very weak a

the close by the heaviness It display *
The reiwrts concerning the promise for t
next crop seemed too good nnd the ncrea
planted too heavy to permit of any lastl
enthusiasm on the bull side. July start
at Kii.ic , as compared with 52c at the clc
yesterday. It dropped near the close
fi2Vic to C2-lsc , and closed at from caisc
B2'/sC.
Oats were only falily active. Fluctu
tlons followed wheat and corn , openl
rather firm and higher , but declined inti
September ranged from 31c to SOSUOVi
and rested nt the low price.
The provision market opened firm
higher prices on account of the buoynn
with which wheat and corn Inaugural

The consumption nf dilfd henna of all descrl )

In any previous twelve months , sny the Ne
Yoik Jouinnl of Commerce. The crops In
season were good and the supply wus lu exee :
of the average , but the consuming demand lit
brought the nock do u , and ut the present tin
It Is estimated that the supply of foreign bear
of all kinds In lift hands Is not more tlin
20,000 buB * . ngalnst about CO.i'OO nt the corr
ppundlng date In 1S94. In jobbers' luui'H tl

curding to repotts from different putts of tl
cuuntiy , but there npponrs to be leas In th" we :

celved from that quarter of late. Plttsburg lit
tiiken u number of cnra of pen henna nnd Clt
clnnntl has UFO befn n buyer during the pui
few < lays , whlii ; funn other wesurn p > lnts frc
intent Inqitlrlea are received. The cxplunntlc
of the Interest shown by bu > ers In u cens >
'Mien irttile might orOlnarlly be expected to I
lltrht Is that the l > nns furnish ttljout the cheape ,

In first hands. Theto has b-eli no murki
advance nnd none IM likely to occur , but deulei

market before the nuw crop becomes uvallabl
II Is reported that the stock of dried Callfornl
llmas In first hands Is nbout cxhaUHled , nnd , t
a result , prices have advanced within the la
two weeks from J2.W to J3.10 , little being no

NEW YORK , June T.-liradstreet's , In the
review of the stock market tomorrow , will eay ;
Irregular but nufllclently distinct signs of r
action have ruled In this week's ipeculatloi
The market seems to have over discounted tl
current Improvement In the general sltuatli
and has been Influenced to an Increased extei
by the damage to winter wheat , although hca\
raln In th < ; far west are retarded an very fi
torable to .other crops London has been vei
Inactive , but the speculatlvt tcmp r tber bi
been visibly affected by the crop news and tr
fear that the stability of our treasury gold n
serve will become a focur ns the date for It
expiration of the contract between tha llelmon
Morgan syndicate and the government o |
preaches. This last Influence Is apparently dli
regarded , but the rise of foreign exchange to tl
gold shipping point has more or Ices effect u
sentiment.
Railroad earnings for May , comparing an the
do with n like period Inst year , generally § ho
Increases , but their Influence Is offset by tl
unfavorable annual reports of both of the Roc
Island and Chicago ft Northweslern roads , nn
by Oic rcducllon of the dividends on the latter
common stock to m per cent for the half yea
or nt the rale of 4 per cent for the year. Tl
company , moreover , falls short of earning tl
latter nmount by about J250.00' ) . Western rnl
road managers are generally cheerful In regnr
to the outlook , but Ihls hnd no effect upon spei
ulators who bought during the rise , nnd In
majority of stocks there has been n dlsposltlo
to realize nnd close long jiccounlf. which I
sime few Instances resulted In marked decline
The bear traders wcre nctlve , though the ej

DECLINED MILITARY HONORS

ter to Governor Holcouib.
OPPCSED TO THE SPIRIT OF MILITARISM

LINCOLN , June 7. ( Special. ) Thcro Is a
vacancy on the odlclnl staff of Governor Hot *
comb. Hon. Kdgnr Howard , democratic rep
resentative from Sarpy county , anil editor of
thoTflpilllnn Times , declines to mix up with
what He appears to believe Is the dominant
spirit of militarism prevalent In the coun
try , Mr. Howard was recently appointed an
alilo on the governor's staff , with the rank of
colonel. H Is the Generally expressed opinion
that Howard pursues a consistent course In
this matter , ns when the bill for an appro
priation to the state mllltla was before tlio
last legislature ho vigorously opposed It. lc ) >
tore ho received his commission ho addressed
the following communication to the governor ;
1'APILUON. Nob. , Juno C.-Sllas A. Hoi-
comb , ( Jovernor , Lincoln , Neb. : Dear Sir
I Imvo iiulleeil hi iho public prints during *
the j > ast week a list of members of your ex
cellency's stuff , Including my own name ,
with n military pplthct prefixed. Perhaps
It would be bolter form lor me to await the
arrival of my commission before addressing1
you , but I do not fee I called upon to let n.
matter of form doter me from placing my
self right before my ft lends. In view of
the publication of your list of stuff appoint
ments the public has a right to believe that
the appointees have accepted the call to
arms for dress parade , whon. as to one of.
thorn at least , such Is not the case. Very
sincerely do I thank you for your unso
licited favor , but In equal sincerity must I
decline to become a member of your mili
tary staff. For fifteen years I have talked ,
written and voted against everything lookIng -
Ing to the spread of the spirit of militar
ism , nnd for me now to accept , even from
your own gracious hand. " , a mlillary appoint
ment , would be giving the lie to nil my past
pietcnses ,
I am opposed to the state mllltla , root anil
branch. 1 regard It as a constant menace ,
rather than nn aid to the public peace. The
state soldiery Ihrom haul the tin on has been
organized always at the behest and often
at the dictation of corporate capital , which
asks that the state shall plunge Its bayonets
rtito the breasts of organized labor In order
to enforce compliance with organized cap
ital's demands.
* llnru , Indeed , are the Instances whcro
state soldiers have been called Into the
Held save by the request of the representa
tives of some corporation , whose galling
burdens have rendered restless nnd revenge
ful their employes. Who ever heard of
the mllltla being called out to right the
wrongs of the poor ? Whou has the stnto
ursheathod her sword or hurled a shell Into
the ranks of capital at the request of labor ?
In vain you will search the records for a
reply.
However , I am gla.d to be able to bellevo
that while you occupy the chnlr of the state
the military arm will never be raised
against the weak by the request of the
strong. I would esteem It nn honor to bo
called to any worthy work or walk In llfo
In your company , but I must firmly decllno
the honor you hnvo pought to confer In
naming me n member of your military staff.
With great respect , I am , my dear gov
ernor , your obedient servant ,
KIX3AR HOWAHD.
ARM THR COMMON PICOPM3.
Today Governor Ilolcomb mailed the fol
lowing reply :
STATE OF NEBRASKA , EXECUTIVE
OFFICE , LINCOLN , June 7 , U93. Hon.
Edgar Howard , Pnpllllon , Neb. : My
Dear Howard I nm lu receipt of
yours of the Cth Inst. , declining
to serve ns a member of the governor's mil
itary stalT , nnd I note with pleasure your
assurances of confidence of the proper UFO
of the ptato mllltla under the present ad
ministration. Highly esteeming your mer
itorious services In the cause of the people
with volco nnd pen , I deemed It appropri
ate that while white winged peace hov
ered over us there should be added to your
accoutrements the sword and the livery of
the army. I admire the courageous man
who defends the rights of the weak nnd the
oppressed , and deplore the spirit which
sometimes prevents him from equipping
himself for the fray. Properly managed ,
our mllltla Is a benefit to the state , nnd I
am Inclined to encourage a military spirit
among the masses of the people.
If the people are In danger from military
forces controlled by corporate capital , 03
you aver , shall we discourage the military
spirit among the great common people and
make them a servile throng of timid men ,
or shall wo develop the Innate military
ardor , encourage the spirit of Independence ,
and offer to the encroachments of organ
ized capital n steady front of soldierly people
ple , ready to defend their rights , confident
in their strength , and with the kindly for
bearance which attends the knowledge of
superior strength.
Yet , I respect your sentiments nnd accept
your declination In the spirit which
prompted It. With best wishes , I am , yours
very truly , SILAS A. HOLCOMH.
