About
CHICAGO , Juno 20. Wheat was weak
from start to finish today and closed at a
fleellno of IHc from yesterday. Liquida
tion of long wheat was the feature , rains
In Russia and Roumanla and favorable do-
tnestlo conditions giving holders a sever *
attack of cnnul. Coarse grains were also
weak , corn closing ' /So lower and oats > ,4c
lower. Provisions closed unchanged to 7'4c
lower.
The opening In wheat waa a lively one
nnd for an hour the market was as weak
ns even the mast persistent bear could
desire. September opened at TrSlOTTjiC ,
compared with yt'Merday's closing price of
78'4c. Largo quantities of long wheat were
offered , .both local and outside traders
dumping their holdings onto the market ,
nnd when the first lull In the liquidation
occurred the price had been ( hammered
down to 77c. 'News ' was of such a char-
titter as to discourage longs , who have
been banking on the Russian crop damage
to offs t the prospects of a big domestic
crop. General rains were reported In Rou-
Inanla and rainfall was also reported from
r.ome parts of the Russian drouth districts ,
with consequent Improvement In crop pros-
perls In those countries. Liverpool cables
were weak and lower. At the start them
was a disposition among shorts to cover at
thf decline , .but . the bearlshness of dom"stlc
advices put a check to even this support.
Northwest receipts were heavy , Minneap
olis and Duluth reporting 720 cars , against
roi cars last w.ck and fii cars a year ago.
Chicago receipts were I'M ' cars , II cars of
contract quality. Aggregate receipts at pri
mary western points were S2I.OOO bu. , com-
imred with lo.COO bu. n year ago. With
the exception of Nebraska and Kansas , In
which stales some hot winds were reported ,
the weather throughout the wheat country
ivas reported favorable. Shortly before
noon the market recovered a trlllo In the
nbs-nco of heavy selling pressure , Sep
tember advancing to 77c , but liquidation
was renewed after noon and prices pot
down to a still lower level. Rradslrcei's
allowed nn Increase In the visible of 1.3S9-
000 bu. , compared with 2.734,000 .bu. . d-crease
last year. New York ( reported a good ex
port business. 100 loads -taken for export ,
.wit thn lack of cash demand here nullified
ny effect this might have had. During
.thn last half hour there was Increased sell-
Jug by disgusted longs , September grad
ually declining lo 7Gc under Ihe pressure.
That was iho price at Ihe close.
Corn was fairly acllve and weak. The
weakness was parlly with wheat , but local
Influences were also present. Receipts
were heavy. 1,10 , " cars , cables were lower
nnd weather was favorable. Contract
Blocks decreased MS.OOO .bu. . Seplember
ranged from 34'4fi3lBc ( to 3ITMJ3SC and
closed ' ,4c lower at 3lc.
Thcro was a fair trade In oats. The mar
ket .foil the weakness of wheat and corn
nnd prices ruled lower all day , closing at
the boMom. Fine wealher and liberal re-
celpls. 350 cars , were factors. There was
n , good cash demand , 350,000 bu. being
taken for shipment. September ranged
from 21ic lo 22fi22',8C. ( and closed Vtc lower
at 21 < ! ic.
'Provisions ' , considering the weakness In
grain , were fairly steady , especially during
the morning , when heavy meat shipments
nnd higher hog prices caused good buying.
tLater the market yielded a little with
grain , but the close was steady. Seplem
ber pork closed 7'ic lower at $ S.42Vfe. Sep-
t'inbe.r . lurd unchanged at $3.inTi5.17 > and
September ribs 2'Av ' lower at $ t.sr .

Still Apparent In N
NEW YORK , Juno 20. Today's advance
In prices of stocks , after an early weak
ness , was no more conc'.uslvo of a settled
condition tft the speculative situation and
of the future course of the stock market
than was yesterday's decline. There was a
brief and spasmodic period of liquidation
In Federal titecl and American Slecl nnd
Wire In Ihe opening dealings nnd ine pro
fessional bear parly look auvanlage of Ihls
to make a drive against the whole market.
But the brief duration of the decline and
the llrm resistance offered by prices ai
Hie low points warned the bears of Ihe
futility of nn effort to break the whole
market. They therefore took lliclr prollls
on Iho decline of yesterday and this morn
ing by buying stocks at the low level.
There was some organized buying of the
Flower group of specialties , not only In
support of Fcdera : Steel , but for the long
account In Brooklyn Transit , People's G.is ,
and other specialties. The action of the
wheat market prompted some buying of the
Grangers also. The continued weakness of
wheat in foco of Ihe well defined Informa
tion of poor crops In Russia and eastern
Eurouo made the conclusion unavoidable
that supplies of American wheat were be
lieved to bo forthcoming by those who are
best able to judge.
Asldo from this the. market continued very
narrow and professional and could not bo
said to represent anything more than Hie
covering of. short contracts by yesterday B
bears. The drop In Federal Steel and Steel
Wire was wide , 5,000 shares of the former
selling nt a decline of 1V4 lo 3 points , and
0,000 sharc.s of the latter showing simul
taneous trunsacllons front IVl lo 2 % below
last night'B prices. The motive , of course ,
was the granting of the Judicial Injunc
tion against the payment of the 1U per
cunt dividend , which Ir.is been declared on
Federal Steel common on the ground that
before the expiration of the fiscal year the
prior right of the preferred slock to. . its 6
per cent dividend could not bo Insured. The
.statement of President Gary that a suf
ficient sum 'had ' already been set aside to
tw n yearly dividend on the preferred
stock was the decisive Influence In the rally
of both stocks. The net decline for each
on the day is only about a point.
Rather conspicuous strength was shown
by the Union Paclllc stocks , New York Cen
tral and Pennsylvania In the lale dealings ,
but as these have recently had sharp de-
c.ines , their relatively greater advances
were but natural. Operations by outsiders
through commission houses continued at a
minimum. Sugar was strong , Continental
and American Tobacco was weak , and the
local traction slocks moved upward. Some
apprehension sllll exlsls over the threaten
ing situation In 'France ' and In South
Africa , and the ruling price for money In
Berlin , which Is the result of a rather
unbr.dled speculation. The advance In
money In Berlin was reflected In higher dis
count rates In London and an advance In
the rate for sterling exchange here , which
is believed to foreshadow a further out
flow of gold.
Railroad bonds were heavy. Kansas City ,
Plttsburg & Gulf flrsls dropped 2's. Tola !
sales , par value , $1,800,000. Unlled States
new 4s and the new 5s .4 In the bid price.
Commercial Adverliser's London financial
cablegram : The markels nero are still dis
turbed by Uie Transvaal politics , though It
la hoped war will be avoided. Paris was
also a free seller today on the cabinet
crisis. Consols were flat. Americans were
'heavy ' und neglected , closing slightly above
the worst. Spanish 49 were llrm at ti2"i.

I Cotton Market.
1 iNEW YORK. Jun20.COTTON Efforts
to liquidate lontr accounts made the cotton
market more active and resulted In a de
cline. The market opened steady with
prices unchanged to 1 point lower , but Im
mediately developed pronounced weakness
under a pressure of lontr cotton , the wll-
Inp movement b = ing- accelerated by unsatis
factory cable accounts , notably of moderate
sales of spot cotton at Liverpool , which
meant more to the traders here than the
Iffi'Ce net dpclln ? In futures In the English
market. There was some buying on the
belief that manufacturers abroad as well ns
at home will bo ohllced to take large quan-
tltl-s of cotton to nil orders they have ac
cepted for cotton goods. Liverpool repre
sentatives bought January and 'March con
tracts on weak Intervals , while the south
and local banking element here sold ths
nearer position.
A feature of the trading was also irio
August buying by a Oreek house. The volume -
umo of business today was much larger
than for some time past. The market
closed steady at 3 to 7 points net lower.

CATTIjE Beef steers sold at steady
prices today on an averag ? . The general
jnarkot was In about the same condition as
yesterday so far as vuiues were concerned ,
Now and then a salesman who happnied to
have handy weight catlle , such as buyers
especially wauled , thought the market was
a little stronger. Such sales , however , were
'tho exception and not the rule. In the
same way sellers who had the kind of cjttle
that buyers were looking for thought the
market was active , but others could not
see uny great amount of life to the trade.
However , the demand was a little better
than yesterday and the cattle moved a llttl ?
more freely In consequence. The most of
Ihe offerings were taken In good season.
Cows and heifers sold at just about sttady
prices and the trade was without feature of
any importance. The most of the offerings
sold in good season. Hulls were In pretty
fair demand and the most of the offerings
sold quite readily at Ihe same prices as pre
vailed yesterday. The calf market was also
steady and without new feature.
Stoekrs and feeders were In moderate
supply and the market unchanged. As
noted yesterday , the country demand has
not been very active for several days past
and the feeling has hien weak In cense
quence. Representative sales :

11UUS Today's market was SS7HC higher
and active at the advance. A few of the
llrst bids may not have been quite so high ,
but the markel practically opened at the
inlvnnco and closed the same way , about
everything chai Ring hands In good beahoi.
The hogs sold prlndpa'ly at $3.70' 3.75 , with
the long string at $3.70 , and quite a Hprlnk-
lliiK at $3.72 % . Good light hogs sold up lo
h-75 It will be remembereo thai yesterday
( Monday ) the hogs sold : it $3.007(3.70 ( , half
of thn hogs selling at J3 CO and $3.C2'/j.
Today's advance- following upon the
stronger market of Saturday and Monday
carried the market to the highest point
touched since April 22 , when the hogs
averaged about the same as today In price.
It will be noted from the table of average
prices at head of column that Iho hogs to
day sold 20c higher than they did on the
day of the month. Representative
SH13KP l.oc.V. packers wanted supplies
of mutton grade ; * of she-ep nnd lambs and
they did nol hesitate to pay very slrong
prices to get what they wanted. Every
thing offered on the market met with ready
sale at prices thai were entirely satis
factory and the irade soon came to an end
for the want of more stuff to sell. Receipts
today were a little larger than the average
for HIP lasl month nnd Indications are now
that there will be a more liberal supply
uy me nrsi or the month , as western
graesers are expected to commence ar
riving a little more freely by that time.
There were thrc-e cars of Oregons here lo-
day. some of the same that sold hero yes
terday.

AGame
Game
With
A
King
A Kingdom
for the
Winning.
This is the strik
ing motif of a
Brilliant New
Serial story
Entitled
nary
by E. ( S H. Heron ,
authors of "Tnminer's Duel , "
Etc. , Etc.
Which began publication In
the Omaha Sunday
Bee June 18th
,
A STOKY that gallops
"
* * from the first line to
the last , that tells a chivalric -
alric and intensely dramat
ic love story , that follows
the intricate plottings of
master diplomats. '
"The plot is fresh ,
the intrigue ingeni
ous , the portraiture
vivid and the treat
ment unhackneyed. .
. . Altogether this is a
fierce and vivid ro
mance. " London Spec
tator.
Curiously enough the collab
orators bear the unusual re
lation of mother and son. E.
& H. Heron la the nom deplume
plume for K. & Hesketh Prlch-
ard. They have already pub
lished several powerful short
stories and serials , but ' 'A
Modern Mercenary" Is their
beat and latest novel , a storj-
which Is attracting widespread
Interest In England.
The players of this Game
with a King , the prize of
which is the winning of a
kingdom , are Count Bagan ,
agrnfl , unscrupulous , reck
less giant , the commander
of the guards of Maasau.
He plays as a tool in the
hands of Solpdorf , Chan
cellor to the King , the4 'man
of the hour. " And behind
these two , old Major Coun
seller , representing Eng
land , the shrewdest diplo
mat of Europe , and Baron
von Elinor of Germany ,
play the intricate keys of
diplomacy. The King of
Maasau , who is weak , worn
out and suspicious , is a
more puppet in the hands
of those master players.
The pawns of the game are
John Hallywood , the Mod
ern Mercenary , a straight
back , fearless young Eng
lishman who fights a dnol
as cheerfully as he makes
love to a nobleman's daugh
ter ; Valeria , the heroine ,
and the Counlesrf Sagan ,
who loves the hero and ap
pears as Valeria's bitter
rival. All this takes place
in the independent state of
Maasau , which is so small
that it is hardly noticeable
even on the largest sized
map of Europe.
