CHICAGO. June 4. Bulllah flood new
caused renewed strength In the grain pits
tnoay. July wheat closing l'-fcc higher, with
coin italic higher and oats up 'o. Pro
visions closed ateady with the September
products unchanged to rViiTo lower.
Wheat ruled decidedly strung and trading
was active with a In rife volume of busi
ness. The market was strong throughout
the entire session, opening prices helnit
higher on alendy cables, small receipts nnd
threatenlnf weather. July was up 'nft'ic
at ib'itiThVtR, and after selling at 747yi'5
Hhortlv after the opening, prices steadily
advanced. The exciting causes were the
strength at St. Louis and the extremely
hiiiiin character of the Missouri crop re
port which showed a loss oi li per rem
n the condition of the crop during the pant
month. Damaging reports from Kansas
and Nehraska were also In evidence nnd
helped In creating an anxiety among shorts
while the strength In corn wns another bull
factor. There whs a good general demand
nil day with light offerings. Ht. Louis con
tinued to advance during the Inst hour and
the price here rose In sympathy, closing
prices being near the top. After selling at
W,c, July closed at 76c, a not gain of l'c.
Clearances of wheat and flour were pqml
to l.'JS.ooo hu. Primary receipts were 299.000
bu., compared with 3f.(i0 bu. a year ao.
Minneapolis and Iniltith reported receipts
of lis cars, which with local receipts of J9
cars pone of contract grade made total
receipts for the three points of l'JH cms,
against liitt cars last week and 29tt cars a
year ago.
Heavy buying of July corn by prominent
commission houses and the generally bull
ish sentiment among local tradera caused
an advance of over a cent in July, while
other months were strong. Strong cables
and the bullish crop reports were the chief
bull factors. The Missouri crop report was
extremely bullish and estimated that 76
per cent of tho corn was not yet In the
ground. Conditions In Iowa, Kansas and
Nebraska were also reported bad and under
these Influences shorts were active buyers
throughout the day and trading was on a
large scale. After selling between 47-W
4Sic. July closed VaVMC higher at 4vfi4HM,c.
Loral receipts were 3.3 cars with 14 of con
tract grade.
The uncertainty of the crop prospects and
the strength In corn brought out a big com
mission house demnnd for oats while shorts
Covered freely resulting In a strong market.
Aside from the steady demand und light
ofterlng the market was featureless. The
close was strong with July 74c higher at
Sor, after selling between 34V$35c. Local
receipts were 117 cars.
Heavy receipts of hogs together with a
decline In prices at the yards caused pro
visions to start weak and lower but the
strength In grains brought out buyers, and
the market turned strong. There was a
food demand from packers as well as a
air commission house buying. Realizing
toward the close caused a slight reaction.
September pork closed 2c lower at $16.75,
September lard was unchanged at $8.87V4
ind rlos were down 6'ji7Hc, at 19.10. Es
timated receipts for week of wheat, 630
cars, corn 415 cars, oats 160 cars, hogs 26,000
head.

CHICAGO. June 4. WHEAT Has been
strnnar and active throughout the entire
session, with an enormous ouisioe inter
est, principally from the southwest and
mainly on the buying side. Futures have
been up from 1 to 2 cents. The September
and December realizing most of the ad
vance and the bullish feature has been
weather news again. Missouri state crop
report for June lowers the condition or
wheat from Mav 17 Doints. News of this
sort has been bullish influence. July wheat
In St. Douls advanced 2 cents, cables and
statistics were absolutely Ignored and
nothing but. bull news seem to gain much
credence. Covering by shorts contributed
liberally to the advance. Local receipts.
19 cars, with 2 contract. Clearances, wheat
and flour, 133,000 bu. Estimates for to
1IIUI 1 J TV Dt V O. I B,
CORN There has been' another exciting
session In corn and another 1 cent gain
has been scored In the price. The cover
ing by shorts, who have suffered severely
the past week, was tne principal strength
ening factor. Missouri crop report on corn
was the first Incentive to better prices,
reporting only three-fourths of the usual
area planted and the condition of what Is
In the ground only 74 per cent. Then came
the Price Current, reporting serious de
lays in planting and poor conditions.
There has been good buying by those
credited with running a bull deal, but
there is a good deal of skepticism manifest
In regard to this operation. Receipts, 322
cars, with 14 contract; estimates tomor
row, 415 cars; clearances, 61.000 bu. .
OATS There has been a strong oat mar
ket all day, with the futures from Vs to
IMtC higher, with July up the most. The
first help was the Price Current, which
stated that the crop, while Improved, was
still below the average, but the best help
was the report that the drouth east la
still unbroken; that the hay crop Is lost and
that oats and rye crop will be very small.
There has been a large trade with a gen
eral outside demand. Some of the houses,
conspicuous on the buying side of late have
continued their buying today, while there
has been free profit taking by some of the
bull Interests. There has been large cash
sales from here, some put It as high as
600.000 bu.. mainly In the Interior.
PROVISIONS Market has kept about
steady. In spite of the liberal hog re
ceipts. There were 41,000 hogs here, or
9.000 over tho estimate, with prices at the
yards 10 to 20c lower. Hogs, west, 79,000
head, compared with 90,000 head last vear.
Packing, west, for the week, 455.000 head
against 405.000 head Inst year. There was
no pressure on the market, however, and
there has be n quite general buying by the
smaller packers. There has also been an
outside demand Inspired mainly by the
grain aavances. estimated for tomorrow.

KGW YORK STOCKS ASD BOSIIS,
Operators t'nload When They
Sea
Prices Are to Star Down.
NEW TORK. June 4. Yesterday's late
reaction was taken as a demonstration of
he futility of the effort made earlier In
the day to put prices up and professional
operators this morning proceeded to throw
over such holdings as they had taken on
with expectation of an upward turn of
prices. There was not much In the news
of the day having a bearing on values.
The weakness of the market Increased as
the day progsessed and before the close
took on the appearance of forced liquida
tion which was In evidence earlier in the
week. A number of Canadian stocks
showed a tendency to recover from the ex
treme depression caused ny tne Canadian
financial difficulties, but there wns some
apprehension that after effects of those
troubles were to be teared at other points.
The greatest selling pressure today con
verged on Amalgamated Copper, of which
thousands of shares were thrown upon the
market with seemlni disregard of what
prices they would bring. The slock touched
i2 shortly before the c'oKe, although an
extreme decline of 6 points for the day and
l points lower than ever before in tne
history of the company. The urgency of
tne selling without news affecting tne
property gave rise to disquieting rumors
as to the necessity which could cause
heavy liquidation. Much of the selling
was said to be for Boston and rumors were
circulated of a process of loan contraction
at that center following the collapse In
Canadian securities. American smelting
also showed evidence of special pressure.
The personality of the brokers employed
In this selling caused the movement to be
associated with the pool which is under
stood to nave operaten coin in Amalga
mated and In the market for. the metal.
Another Influential factor In causing dis
couragement was the free selling of Penn
sylvania through the day. This stock
touched 1Z.T14. a decline on the day or l'A,
and Hi below the previous low record on
the movement. This compares with the
subscription price to stockholders, which
has also been underwritten by a syndicate
at 130. The liquidation of this stock caused
a bad Impression upon sentiment Rll
around. The flurry In the call money mar
ket to 44 late In the da v. was evidence that
there were ursent rea'rements to be met.
The Incident of tho dav was the evidence
of support for the United States Steel
stocks, large buying oracrs peing execmea
by houses formerly acting for the steel
syndicate.
Rut the reports rrom tne iron trane naa
Influence In depressing stocks generally.
The reports that the steel market 4 grow
ing easier were received with anxiety. The
calling of a convention of anthracite
miners to Consider a strike was naturally
depressing. The strength of the grain
market, an unfavorable report from the
Missouri agricultural department and the
unprecedented low condition of cotton re
norted bv the irovernment were effective
Influences In the day's weakness. The dis
turbance In the call loan market was con
sidered as foreshadowing poor bank re
turn on Saturday. The market closed
weak and active and practically at the
lowest.
Bonds were Irregular. Total sa'es, par
value, $2,195,000. United States bonds were
all unchanged on the last call.

CATlLE There was another caormoui
run of cattle here touay and also at Chi
cago, which, taken wltn the neavy rece.p.s
of the last few days, gave pacaters almost
more cattle than tney couiu nanuie. a a
rseult prices had to suffer. Trading waj
rather slow ana It was late uolore any
thing like a clearance was made.
Tnu big bulk of the receipts was again
made up of beef steers and tne quality was
about tne same as It has been, wnlcu means
that nearly all the cattle were well rat
tened. The market could sately be quoted
a big dime lower than yesterday and a
good many were calling It liKitioc lower.
All of the advance of tho first of the week
Is now lost, and more, too, so that prices
are about a dime lower than they were
last Friday. The bulk of the .attle a.re
now selling from 84.40 to 84.60 and It lakot
something strictly choice to bring 84.70 or
better. At 2 o'clock there were still a good
many steers In lirst hands, with prospects
favorable for many of them being carried
over until Friday.
The supply of cow stuff was not large, but
at the same lme prit.es went down in
sympathy with the break on steers and
the decline could be put at just about a
dime. Buyers seemed to want all the covs
and hellers there were In sight and the tu
that arrived were soon disposed oi.
Bulls, veal calves and siugs all felt the
effects of the break on beef ateers to some
extent, but still the decline was not so
pronounced.
The more favorable outlook for settled
weather has had a tendency to help out the
demand for stockers and feeders to some
extent, but there were so few cattle on
sale that would do to send back to the
country that a test of the market was
scarcely made. The few decent cattle,
though, tnat aid arrive soia wunout. aim
culty
at steady prices. Represenlailve

SHEEP There were onlv two cara of
sheep reported this morning and only one
of them arrived for the opening market.
That was a bunch of culls which sold for
$3.00. It could not be said that a test of
the market was made, but packers claimed
that they were willing to pay good steady
prices for Ueslrmble grades. There did not
seem to be much demand though for com
mon stuff. Prices have teen fluctuating
rapidly at all points this week, as Chicago
reported a sharp advance the first of the
week, but today the market was quoted 10f
15c lower. The facts of tho case are that
the quality of the offerings has been very
common, which always makes an uneven
market.

Candidates for Postmaster Crow's Sheer

PLUM HANGS HIGH YET TILL DECEMBtF
List of Asplraats Who Hare A tread j

Although the plum la not expected to be
pulled until next December, activity Is al
ready being manifested by aspirants to
favor for appointment to succeed Hon. Jo
seph Crow as postmaster for Omaha. Mr.
Crow took possession In April. 1899, and hnn
therefore held more than four years, but
aa his commission dates from December.
when he was confirmed by the senate. It Is
taken for granted that he will be left un
disturbed until then.
Postmaster Crow, however, is not at nli

him.
Asslataat Postmaster Seeks Promotion.
Assistant Postmaster James Woodwara
will press his claims to promotion, having
served in his present capacity through suc
cessive administrations and virtually run
the business of the office for the benefit
and credit of the persons happening for
the time being to be invested with the of
ficial Insignia. He has been a cnndl late
for the place on the score of service several
times, but had to give way to political ex
igencies that gave preference to competi
tors. Another prospective postmaster Is Mel
Uhl, now In charge of the business
management of the News and who as a
member of the legislature that wrestled
with the senatorial deadlock two years
ago got a chance to put In his vote for
Senator Millard on the final roll call.

Before the eclipse of Mr. Mercer as con
gressman from the Second district, his
congressional committee, Thomas W.
Blackburn, was grooming himself for the
postmastership which waa to have heen
absorbed aa one of our Dave's perqu'sltes.
It Is not certain whether Mr. Blackburn
Is still toying with the mystic letters of
the alphabet that make the degree of
P. M. or will boost for other Mercer sup

Last but not least on the avowed Hat
comes Clement Chase, who has persuaded
himself that he could ornament the office
with both dignity and social prestige.
Mr. Chase has not quite definitely decided
whether to rest his claims on the Sons of.
the American Revolution or tha Daughters
of Colonial Dames, or simply to sail In for
It sub rosa.
In thla connection a peculiar fairy tale
has been flouting around the city hall the
last few days to the effect that Frank
E. Moores is to be transplanted from the
mayor's office to the postmaster's desk
through the combined efforts of his friends
and his enemies, the latter seeking by this
means to dislodge him from his position -as
chief executive of the city. It Is need
less to say this story can be traced to no
source that is ready to stand sponsor for
it.
By custom and precedent each United
Statea senator Is conceded the selection of
the postmaster at his own home, so the
whole thing will be up to Senator Millard
when the time comes.
OMAHA SHORT ON POTATOES
Ratlroads'Ara Getting In Shape, How.
ever, and Famine Will Be
Averted.
A potato famine of small proportions has
been staring Omaha In the stomach for two
or three days and the local supply Is about
all gone. However, cheering reports that
the railroads are getting in ahape again
ha"e brightened the attuatlon and there
la a good prospect that tha customary sup
ply of both old and new tubers will be
on the market by today. Yesterday the re
tailers were buying the 1902 vintage at 86
centa a bushel and selling them for 30 cents
a peck. Of new potatoes from the south
there has been almost a total lack this
week. There are only a few tomatoes on
the market and the strawberry supply Is
still short, owing to the railway Interrup
tion around Kansas City. Home grown
berries were retailing for 17Va cents a box
yesterday and some from this side of Kan
sas City for 15 cents.
