CHICAGO. May 24,-May wheat today
rose to within Ho of the 81 mark. Nervous
covering of about 400,000 bushels on orders
said to have come largely from 8t. Louis
put up the price nearly 2c a bushel to
OjlVf. TK - . . - . - .
" - - no uawnv wan wmaj at HRl gain OK
Ic. Other months rose, but to a much lesser
degree, and In the end were Ho to V4&c
lower than last night. Latest trading left
corn a shade to Vtftoo up; oats at Vie to
Vtij4j(0 advance and provisions' unchanged
to 12VjrU16o Increased in cost.
A break In the wheat market at Mlnne
aiwlla had a god deal to do with causing
of the day. The reason was an unconfirmed
report that a considerable amount of hard
winter wheat would be shipped there from
Chicago. Previous to this the bulls seemed
to have the market here at their mercy. The
May strength had Induced considerable buy.
Ing of other months. Theforelgn excha.ns.-e
were firm and there were reiHirts of crop
losses In Kansas and Nebraska, and of a
probable extremely short yield 4n Oklahoma
and Texas. Profit-taking, though and tho
news from Minneapolis led to a rather
sharp set back. Between the opening and
the close. July ranged from KWSllia to
K7?tti ?, with Inst sales at 8TM,i3Nc, a net
stubborn, final sales being at 980, a full
cent advance.
Kxport call for deferred shipment
strengthened corn. July fluctuated between
UiinM. closing Ho up at at the first
named figures. Cash grades were firm. No.
8 yellow closed at 635?4o.
Damage reports from the southwest gave
oats quite a bit of firmness Independent of
other grains. High and low points for July
turned out to be 34Vc and 34ij34ic, with
the close e net higher at ie.
A healthy rash demand hardened the mar
ket for provisions. The outcome for pork
was a rise of 2V4o to 13V(fl5o, but In lard
and ribs the advance did not reach above
a nickel. ,

NEW TORK. May 24. Vsrtous reports of
readjustments of prices disturbed specula
tive sentiment and the stock market today
was feverish and lost ground. Announce
ment by the chairman of the Republic Iron
and Steel company that the corporation
would disregard the official prices, at least
so far as Iron nnd steel bars are concerned.
on account of price cutting by some of the
smaller companies, was regarded aa the
possible forerunner of a more general
movement.
It has been suggested that certain large
manufacturers would co-operate to main
tain prices of some products and prevent
a general reduction. This view seemed to
be taken by the executive head of the
United States Steel corporation In a state
ment Issued today.
Stocks were under pressure during the
morning, but later the market recovered
slowly.
The losses were due to a large extent to
short selling, which seemed particularly
large In United States Steel. Some spe
cialties showed pronounced strength.
lloth Western Union and General Electric
reached the highest figures of the lust two
years. American Beet Sugar was strong
and Underwood Typewriter rose five
points.
June disbursements- of Interest and divi
dends are estimated at 8W2,0ft0, as com
pared with 8D6.949.0H0 In June of last year.

hand, heavy cattle were Inclined to drag,

lower on that kind of cattle..
Good heifers And good light cows on the
heifer order sold vsry freely at prices that
were steady with yesterday. Heavy cows,
on the other hand, were slow sale, the
same as they were yesterday, and for the
two days they are around oioo lower.
Stockera and feeders contlnus extremely
scarce, the supply consisting only of three
or four loads per day as a general thing.
While the demand Is limited. It Is fully
equal to or possibly- a little In excess of
the small receipts, so that prices paid are
strong In spile of the fact that the beef
cattle market is not very encouraging.

BHE.EP Several surprising features were
Involved In sheep end lamb treae. Volume
of supply was normal, but the display had
a better variety than on moat days re
cently. More matured sheep arrived, but
the proportion of lambs, both woo led and
shorn, still proved large enough to be in
an easy majority, logically, the market
was due to weaken, but actually, prloes
ranged from steady to a dime higher In
spots. Strength was confined to sheep and
various bands of extra good lambs, oc
casional sales of the latter class of stock
showing an easier trend. An uneven busi
ness Indicated an uncertain feeling, of
course, but despite this condition, the big
bulk of offerings landed steady to strong.
Twenty-five doubles of stock, the entire
receipts, met with a healthy demand and
cleared readily. At times the call from
buyers was really aotlve, but the general
Inquiry could hardly be labeled urgent.
Classy kinds of lambs crowded high prices
at Chicago, wooled Mexicans selling at
87.55 and on up as high as 87.70if7.75. There
were no wooled westerns of consequence
on sale. Desirable shorn lambs settled In
notches almost -Identical with those of
yesterday, eight-pound animals with plenty
of quality bringing as much as $7.00. Oood
spring lambs sold at 67-60.
Matured sheep were usually shorn and
consisted largely of wethers and yearlings.
These olasses ranged at 3a.25C.&0 and shorn
ewes passed all recent limits st 84.75. The
sheep trade lately has not been keeping
pace with Iamb advances so that any
strength at present Is natural.

GEN. DODGE GIYES NEW PARK
Will Donate land Enough for 0n on
River Front.
TO EXTEND BETWEEN BRIDGES
Coadltloa Imposed le that Aeeeee te

lag- to Broadway.
Through the munificence of General O.
M. Dodge Council Bluffs la to have another
large and splendid psrk added to Its ex-
tensive system. He has agreed to donate the
land nrcesssry for ths new West End park
In such a way that It will permit ths
money provided by special taxation for the
purchase of the ground alt to be used In
developing the park Itself. He has offered
to donate a tract of between thirty and
thirty-five acres on the river front at tha
point moat desired by the people of tha
west part of the city-and which most nearly
meets the epprovnl of the park board. It
comprises the river front between the street
railway and the Union Pacific bridge.
General Dodge's offer was made to tha
board In writing on March 80, when the
park board called for offers of park sites
to be opened on April 1. For excellent rea
sons the board decided to withhold ths In
formation from the public, but at a special
meeting held on Monday night ths decision
was reached to accept the generous offer
and acquaint the public with the facL
General Dodge, who owns about 160 acres
of land between the two bridges made A
double proffer to the board. His land front
ing the river comprises part of three" tracts.
Indicated en the plat maps as lots 1, I and
8. He offered to sell all of lot 8. which
lies In the form of a aauara cvtniainln
about thirty-five acres, for . 2n0 an acre.
or wouia donate a strip 400 feet wide ex
tending the full length of the river front
between the two bridges, a distance of about
half a mile. The only reservation Is that
the owners of the land adjoining? shall
have the right-of-way throus-h the Anrt.
strip to the river. General Dodge owns all
" tract, but only baa an Interest In the
others, which aro owned by eastern friends,
but It was wholly through his Influence
that the donation of the most valuable
part, tho river front, was given to the
city.
Conditions of Gift.
Th gift Is accompanied by conditions that
are easily agreed with, and while develop
In the park Itself wUl also add materially '
to th value of the holdings of General
Dodge and his friends. Th conditions re
quire th obstruction of a boulevard from
Avenue B along Thirty-seventh street to
the line of lot 2, midway between th two
bridges: thence west to the high ridge that
runs parallel 400 or 600 feet Inland from
the river; then following the ridge all thS
way to tho south line of lot 8; thenoe to tha
old wagon road leading from th Brown
tract to th Union Paclflo bridge, following
that grade to Ninth avenim ami h, ..1.
to Broadway. Tho rlrht-of-way for this
is to do given through th land
traversed. The queaUon of Its cost Is yet
an undetermined factor In th proposition,
but as It has a firm sand foundation and
General Dcj,.., Wwl , tha u ,houId b-
covered only with cinders, th cost will
b small in comparison with th prlc that
would hav to be paid for any quantltr of
land. If purchased outright. Th can only
b determined in the report of th engineer

fund, and when th final payments of th

believed to be sufficient to construct th
extenslv boulevard and Improve th water
front. A number of feasible plans for this
ar m view. One contemplates using th
tau, straight cottonwood trees that cover
a large portion of the tract, for piling. A
Pll sixty or more feet long could be sunk
by hydraulic pressure with a small portabl.
engine pump In a few minute to th. water
