' CHICAGO, Msy 7. Grsln speculstors
traded on the weather map again today
and pressed prices hard all around. July
wheat closed lHc lower, July corn lo
down and July oats He lower. Provisions
cloned unchanged to 6c hlsher.
Thers was a fair show of strength In
wheat at ths outset on the Influence of
? yesterday's cash business and more rains
ast night In ths over-wet northwest. Trad
era changed their stand, however, on later
reports of seasonable weather. The weather
map showed clear weather southwest and
what was still more Important an end to
ths wet weather In the northwestern spring
country for the Dresent. Both these locall
ties sent In liberal selling orders on the
weather news and their own markets were
weaker. This caused local speculators to
lose sight of bulltshly small rscelpts, Kan
sas crop Damage reports ana iainy nrm
cables. Longs deserted their holdings and
threw stuff overboard, but Inasmuch as
many shorts covered their accounts yea
terday buyers were scarce, except at good
declines. When the bears understood this
position they besan to hammer the nit
stiffly and prices broke rapidly. Trade
generally was not very heavy and the mar
ket showed a drasslna disposition most of
the time. July opened '(tc to a shade
tip at lbo to ?6Hy.'ic, dropped to 74c and
closed weak, lH31c lower at A
good export and cash business had little
lnnuenee on tne maraei. iteceipis were si
cars, t of contract grade; Minneapolis and
Dulath reported log cars, making a total
for the three points of 140 cars, against 139
last week and 220 a year ago. Primary re
ceipts were 304,000 bushels, compared with
449.000 bushels last year. Seaboard clear
ances In wheat and flour equaled 2W1.0U0
bushels. Chicago sold 20 loads for export.
Corn started with a good show of
strength on firm rabies and a fair cash
Situation. The leading bull crowd also was
buying some July snd selling September.
The strength, however, was short-lived,
for when whest broke the bulls began to
consider the favorable crop reports and re
duced their support. Bears Jumped Into
ine marsei ana soia snort ana nroke prices
over a cent. Trade waa not lane and the
; greater part of ths session the market
araggea. juiy duii manipulation was still
talked of. but Inasmuch as the supposed
manipulation did not hold prices up many
lost faith In the bull situation. July sold
front He down to 60c and closed weak,
H4e lower at SOSc. Receipts were 75 cars.
Oats were dull and suffered from the de
. presslon In com and wheat. Crop advices
were favorable and the cash situation still
good. There waa little support on the de
cline and July sold from ibr. to a weak
close, c down at 36Ho. Receipts were 157
cars.
Provisions were dull and fluctuated nsr
rowly. The weak hog situation at the yards
offset the general disposition to buy when
the market opened. Ribs snd lard were In
good demand, ' especially by packers'
brokers. The weskenlng grain markets
also worked against the advance and the
early gains were not held well. July pork
closed unchanged at 118.96. July lard a
shade higher at $10.10 and July ribs 6o up at
Estimated receipts for tomorrow: Wheat
80 cars; corn, 105 cars; oats, 140 cars; hogs,

NEW YORK. Msy 7. Today's stock mar
ket reflected an unavailing effort to arrest
the downward tendency.
Prophecies over anthracite labor settle
ment continued very confldent from sources
with every mesns of suthorltatlve Infor
mation, but the flat contradiction of the
rumors received from Bcranton, where the
miners' delegates were in convention
psusmI confusion and uncertainty, and t
suspicion that the Wall street outgivings
were In the nature of "tips" designed to
Influence the stock market. As a matter
of fact, Reading, which was accepiea as
the Index of the anthracite situation, was
lifted a shade above last night.
The reports of the condition of the crops
and the weakness of ths grain market
were a help to the grain carrying roads,
and they made a good advance In the
course of the day's session. The contin
ued sggressive strengtn or i.ouisviuh

Louisville and various smaller subsidiary
lines gained additional Influence from the
rerponse in Southern Railway, which wss

time m. The advance in Kansas City
Southern was attrlbutea to me lormauuu
of a pool in the stock.
All of the, strons points, however, yielded
to the liquidation during the last hour
caused by the rslse In Reading to 24 under
last night. Practically all of the gains

on account of the annual report, which
was considered discouraging.

heavy.
The tone of the bond market weakened

BOER CAPTAIN IN OMAHA
Former Member of General Delarey's
Staff Will Speak Here
Tonight.
Captain H. C. Van Msndenbach de Rooy,
a Boer fighter late of Delarey's staff, has
arrived In Omaha to deliver an address to
night at Germsnla Turner ball. Nineteenth
and Harney streets. In behalf of his coun
trymen. J. H. Boonstra Is to be chairman
of the meeting and there are to be re
marks by Rev. Thtels and perhaps others,
and music will be furnished by tbe Ger
man Singing society. Captain ds Rooy
spoke In Council Bluffs Sunday night and
will go from here to Sioux City and later,
perhaps, to Lincoln.
He has been In this country fifteen
months and acquired fair mastery of the
English language, though be give It many
picturesque twist and turn when be
warms to bis subject In an Interview he
said:
"I take no stock tn the rumors of peace.
for now the Boers have all to win and
nothing to less by continuing the fighting.
Their bouses are gone and their families
herded In camps, so they may as well re
main tn the field, where they can draw on
Kitchener for food supplies as often as
they feel In a humor for raiding bis forces.
If they surrendered now they would be
paupers, wttb nothing attained by tbe sacA
rifleea of the past.
"Nor should the general public take
much stock In the reports that come from
the War office In London, as tbe censors
there mutilate or distort reports as badly
aa they dare. I believe Kitchener Is send
ing In the truth about things, but tbe office
doesn't dare to have that truth be known.
As an Illustration of tbe exaggeration that
is being Indulged tn, I remember that a
London paper we found on a British officer
we captured gave an account of an en
gagement of ours and reported our losses
aa 250. The truth was that we lost just
four. I don't know wbsre they got the
others unless they Included tbe dogs,
monkeys and horses that may have been
killed one way and another.
"It is easy for anyone to gee) that King
Edward wishes the trouble disposed of be
fore his coronation and the Boers all
chuckle to think what a good joke It would
be to capture another Lord General 8o-and-So
on tbe eve of that eventful day."
