CHICAGO. May S.-Whrat pursued an
rritlc course today, Influenced by news of
a diversified character. The undertone In
the main was strong, but fears of rains In
Kansas and a slump la corn turned the
market weak and July wheat cloned c
lower. July corn lac depressed and July
oat 'ic lower. Provisions closed unchanged
to 60 higher.
Firm cablea, too much rain In the sprina:
wheat country and continued drouth In
Kansas brought a slight upturn early In
whent. Bears, however, soon attacked the
market on the depression of a dull corn
market and reports of excellent conditions
in the wheat country, where rains had
fallen. Prices slipped off, but were at once
buoyed up again by Rood buying on the
oecnne. asn Dusiness wa improving-,
clearances were fair and experts had the
Kansas crop damaged 75 per cent. Jury,
which had opened a shade to H'sViC higher,
at 77c to 77M,c and sold off to iKc, soon
lumped to 77Ve. The early outside markets
had been weak, but improvea somewnit,
export business was reported good and
material strength was manifested. Then
came another attack by the bears on fears
or rains in Kansas, corn conunuea to oe
cllne and wheat sold off. July dipped again
to 7Hc and closed weak, viTSc lower, at
16ysfJe. Local receipts were 44 cars
two of contract grade, and Minneapolis' ana
Duluth reported 348 cars, making total
for the three points of 292 cars, against 134
last week and 260 a year ago. Argentine
shipments were 1,01S, bu., compared to
920,000 a year ago. Primary recelpta were
mono bu., against 12.000 last year. Sea
board clearances in wheat and flour equaled
447,000 bu. The seaboard reported ten and
a half loads taken for export.
Corn was dull for the session and slumped
badly. Wheat momentarily brought
atrength, but the absence of a support was
more than the market could withstand,
considering the bearish news that was
coming in from the fields. The weather
was Ideal for the growth and farmers were
sending their stuff to market more freely
than of late. Cables were Indifferent and
Argentine shipments bulllshly large. Late,
after the wheat support had been lost,
bears began selling short. July slumped
from 63o to a weak close at the bottom
Srice of the day, ISo lower, at ti142c.
;ecelpts were 184 cars.
Oats were weaker by the depression In
other grains. There was some fair buying
by commission houses at times and wheat
crave some support. The late weakness,
however, pressed prices and in the view
of good farm reports July closed weak,
c lower, at 46ic Receipts were 138 cars.
Provisions showed a marked Increase
early, but lost much of the gain near the
close on liquidation for profits. The hoe:
rnirket was strong at the vards because or
the light run of" hogs, there waa good
covering of short accounts in products and
packers also supported. July pork sold at
$17.20 and closed 6o up at 117.024, July lard
closed 6c higher at $10.16 and July ribs un
changed at 30.60.
Estimated receipts for tomorrow: Wheat,
35 cars; corn, 160 cars; oats, 206 cars; hogs,
13.OH0 head.

Market Caaaes Break
NEW TORK. May t-The stock market
received a shaklnar out this .fi.r
which had been considered overdue for
some time by competent observers of con
ditions. As usual the constriction of the
money supply Is the Immediate cause of
the fall In prices. Needless to say. the
rirouna nas oeen prepared by the manlpu
atlon of speculative pools and cliques,
with a resulting inflation in prices which
gave purely fictitious values in the most
flagrant cases and a highly speculative
range of values in the whole list.
The abrupt break to par of Rutland pre-

lightest today that they have been on a
Friday In a lona- time and in fact th
was hardly more than a Saturday's run.
As will be seen from the table of receipts
given above the supply for the week to
date Is considerably short of the same
days of the last several weeks and also
of the same days of last year. The tend
ency of prices, however, has been down
ward at all points and the break In nrin.
la the greatest that has been experienced
in a long time.
There were verv lew beef ateera on ..u
this mornlna and as nackera haH a ,
orders they had to nil the market was a
little stronger than yesterday and a few
sales were made that looked 64tlOo
higher thcan yesterday. There were
so few cattle on sale, though, that a fair
test of the market was not mnaiav Tha
prices that were paid today, however, were
juuy aH-mc tower man tne high time and
In some cases the decline looks even more
than that. The choice heavv .ynnrt miiu
and the prime lightweights have not suf
fered as much as the medium grades.
The cow market did not show much of
any change today as compared with yes
terday. Recelpta were, of course, very
light, but packets were not at all anxious
for supplies, so that, even though offerings
were limited, sellers were unable to get
any better prices than they did yesterday
The situation could best be described by
calling It alow but steady. As previously
mentioned the general market on xnaua a h
heifers is safely 60S76C lower than the
high time and some selasmen are quoting
the decline even more than that.
There was no particular change from
yesterday in the Drices nal,1 for hull. .,..1
calves and stags, although the demand
was limited.
The Blocker and feeder trade continued
very quiet today. There were very few
cattle on aaie, but it is safe to say that
for the week the market Is fully 15c5o
lower. The demand from the country is
very light and fewer cattle have been
shipped out this week than for some time
past. Only 14 cars were shipped to the
country yesterday, but that Is more than
on most days of this week. Representative
sales:

Warships Sheathed with Asbestos to
Keep the Sailors Healthy.
When the navv turned to bulldlna Ita
ships of steel it was remarked that unless
some device was adopted for offsetting the
effect of heat condensing on the metal it
would be only a matter of a short time
before all our officers would be suffering
from rheumatism.
The Introduction of metal chairs, tables
and other plecea of furniture followed a
few years ago and now there Is not' a
single piece of wood of any sixe to bo
found in an officer's room on a modern
war sl ip. He sleeps In an Iron berth, keeps
his ciothcs In a steel chest, while the floor
lUiiK ana walls nf his apartment are of
the same metal. Since the adoption of the
solid armor for the sides of the warshlrts
a great deal of trouble has been experienced
in malting nabitariie the quarters directly
next to the outside covering. The heat of
the room condensed on the cold metal and
In a very short time1 the occupant would
be on the hospital list with a bad case of
rheumatism. This is now guarded against,
by the use of a sheathing of asbestos
v ru 1 a v iu 111, -,. mi,, uiriii ill nni tT
by a framework. This Is found to absorb
the moisture In a satisfactory manner. Care
Is also taken to see that the bert-.s are not
built agalnat the outside of the vessel, but
against one of the side walls, so that the
sleeper will be as far as possible from the
metal that comes In contact with the
water.
