Strong cables , favorable crop reports ami WR export cnRiipctnents took turns In mildly huirotliiK prices. Com Was wcnk and declined > / c. Onts advanced He nnd provisions closed ut a f.o decline for porl nnd unrliangtil for lard nnd ribs. In wheat , 1.1 vci pool had recovered an early decline nnd was already / d hlnher ttian It cloned ycstctdity before thin market 0cncil. | ) This was due , It Ifl claimed , to bud reports from the French crop. Apnrl from tilt ; cnbU'H , there was nothing In the early news differing much from the prevailing conditions yesterday , and the opening ad vance was due solely to this Liverpool llrm- lit-s * . July opened hero from 71o to 71Vir > , ' lee of o. nfralnst yesterday's eloping _ m Tp M nt of the trades were nt 71Ho for libout two minute * , and for mi hour the price did mil KO below Wio or above the lifchcsl of the- opening quotations. The clop news was rather favornblo for the hoard , as the weather crop bulletin reported everything favorable , -with u steady Increase In pro- pcrlH. California advlreM wil < l no rain of consequence there and weather hot- but as the San Kmncfaoo market was enmer the crop news from there did not help the mar ket materially. Them were reportu of dam- ace by the Hessian lly In Michigan , Kannus nnd Missouri , but s they were not iircom- Tiunled by Imylng orders they had "little In- llueiice. Speculative business was plnek In the middle of the day. both bulls nnd bears pressing In uncertainty as to the future of the market , but after 12 o'clock HIP market began to go down. Outside of Liverpool foreign cables were all weak and lower , mid oven Liverpool did not hold all of Its strength. July Dually sold clown to 7tc to "O'.Ac , but about twenty minutes before the clo'sK ! the market became as ntrong as at the opening , on reports of considerable quan tities of wheat taken for shipment east. Vessels were chartered for over 200.000 bu. today , and , although some of It was wheat bought the. day before , there was probably over tOO.COO bu. of the whole bought today. July rose to 71Ku and closed nt 71c to 71'tc. Corn was fairly active and heavy on lartic country purchases by elevator people against which they sold futures In the pit The weather was fnvorablo nnd the outlool good for the coming erop. Export * were MS.COO bu. July opened n shade higher at 2t5c , declined to 2-IVo nnd milled with wheat to 2-PiiC nnd 24',4u ' bill , where It closed. Oats were steady all day , but Interesting. Trading was narrow , the strength comliiK principally from n. good shipping Iminlry. Exports amounted to 97,000 bu. July opened n shade higher at 17 % < ' to 17e. nnd was held through the session at 17"te , which WIH the closing price. Provisions were fairly steady on n smnll amount of business. The rrmrket wns weak early on selling by the packers , but recov- , cied later under covering by shorts. At the close July pork was Ge lower at $ S.17'i ; July lard unchanged at P.RO , and July ribs un changed at JI.I71/ " .

To estlmntc the strength of the Inlluence that might have been cxerelfcd upon HIP general mnrket by there two stocks It must be considered that they absorbed over 81,000 out of a total of IM.ooo nhniCH dealt In on the exchange for the day , Chicago On s nlone lielntr credited with C3(04 shares. A large proportion of these sales \ > eie made In the Intt hour nnd it half of the trading' nnd enoimous clocks of stock were unloaded wltli prtclpllalo eagerness which had been bought In the convlctlrn that the consolidation bill woiib ! succeed. The price , which hud advanced a pelnt In the morning , tumbled headlong 3 % per cent , with no check to the decline until the lowest point was renched , hen there was a feeble rally. The demoralization In this ftoeU was In u fair way to breuk the whole market , nnd did. In fact , carry prices generally below the clove last night , wiping out the gains of the earlier part of the day , Hut u Una I rally In the market brought many prices lack near to lasl nlght'H close or slightly above It.

Notable declines In other stocks were u point In Bugar and Manhaltan und l'-i per cen In Tobacco and l i per eent In Tennessee Coa nnd Iron. There went other lo ce In the list , but they were sr.iull , und many standard shares were on u , level with cr above latt night's ( los ing. The day's trading , tnouxh narrow , was marked by u notable undercurrent of strength baied partly on the apparent termination of the wur beturen Turkey and Greece and partly 01 u conviction arrived at by public opinion on the stuct , by Its own pricehsc-n of reusonlng , thai the udmlnlMrallon had determined uk'uliut uny radical slepu In regard tu Cuba , The outwan Kohl movement Is na longer viewed with rucl marked apprehension us ut llrst on account of the evidences that It will be restricted to mod erate proportion * .

Complaints are being made by citizens who contemplate building residences that the prices charged by the building Inspector are cxliorbltant.

It would seem as If there could be no objection to reducing the charges for per mits. One or two of the councilman .have been spoken to In regard to the matter and more than likely a new schedule of prices will be adopted. Those Interested In seeing a reduction made ncsert that the prices for permits now charged are greatly In excess of the charges made In Omaha. HUH : -iirnoil. .
