Program for Today.

Correspondence OF Ike Evening star
GLEN Echo. July q, 1891
Yesterday was As perfect day as has ever
shone over Glen Echo. There was no unusual
MISUNDERSTANDING but the usual Sunday
seryices-church at IL am, at which Rev. q.
I. Jones Of Rochester, y. y, preached the
sermon. The yesper service at 4 O'Clock at
racted large number of people who were
stroiiing through the grounds. Il is con-
sidered one of the pleasantest meetings Of
the Sabbath and is US old as Chautauqua itself
In the evening instead of a sermon there was
song service in the amphi:heater. and as most
OF the songs were familiar every one Joined and
had good camp meeting time. Prof. Baker
sang tenor solo and Miss Johnston a soprano
solo.
The crowd that filed the Conduit road YES
terday was wonderful. There was an endless
procession OF vehicles and the Glen Echo cars
averaged at least 100 people each trip. Buses
were AT the end of the electric line waiting 10
carry the people to Cabin John. The most
careful watch was kept at the Glen Echo gates.
SO that there was no noise or confusion.
ms afternoon there was a musicale under
the direction of Prof. Baker. and following
that Robert Niven, ESQ.,, delivered the third
lecture OF his course on Gladstone and
bright Mr.. Niven impresses one as a man OF
profound thought and Is thoroughly acquainted
with his subject. He will take UP his second
series tomorrow in literary characters and his
hrst lecture will be Goethe and CARLYLE;
Their Differences and Resemblance"
AT pm. Miss Imogen Pierce gave another
Shakespearian lecture or reading. She makes
her readings very interesting. for she il gem
orally assisted by one or two gentlemen from
the audience. The evening lecture will be by
Rev. I. Chapman Jones of Rochester on Our
folks 1t will be a very bright discussion,
full of wit.
There viii be a chorus rehearsal under the
direction OF Prof. Baker at the Foundry ME-.

AN ADVANCE IN CORN.
Cool Weather and Cable Reports Send Up the
Price.

CHICAGO, July 27.-There was a rather un-
looked for and surprising advance in the price
of corn in the board of trade this morning
The continued cool weather over the corn
growing area retarding the growth of the plant
and tending to delay its maturity beyond
the season which severe frosts may be looked for
threw the trade into sort of panic
at the opening. The strong feeling was as
sisted by higher cables, though the receipts
were ~ car loads less than the estimates Sep
TENDER started at 551s against $50 at the
close on Saturday and rapidly advanced to
575s. At that point the advance was STAYED on
reports OF clear and warmer weather in the
northwest and the price receded to 81.

Dear feature was the enormous receipts They
aggregated ,345 car loads against an estimate
OF $50, and the work of the inspector was 30 in
creased that reports from some of the railroads
were not made. These reports will come in to-
morrow, increasing the receipts Of the day
proportionately. The fine harvest weather
and the crop reports from the north
west were also decided bearish features, while
the only strong point was an advance Of u

soon S91s. When corn weakened wheat did
likewise. At 10 o'clock December was quoted
$3.50. After 10 o'clock the markets grew strong
again. December wheat advanced to S91s and
September corn to $50 Mt IL o'clock.
PROVISIONS were governed chiefly by corn.

specia, Dispatch to The Evening Star
RoUSD Hill, Va, July 27.-Iast night was
cold, but the troops belonging to the Washing
ton and New York cavalry troop camped out
just the same. and without tents at that. They
left Winchester at exactly o'clock in
the afternoon, passing again through the
town, the picturesque campaign hats being used
continually IN answer TO their cons tant greetings
The afternoon ride was about twelve miles
and camp was pitched at dusk in u stubble-
field. Coffee and sandwiches composed the
evening meal. and after some little foragiug
in the neighborhood the tired riders rolled
up in their blankets and. with the saddles fo-
pillows, fell into more or less peaceful repose
THIS morning at i30 the army was again In
activity, and between and o'clock
again took the road. The morning. march has
been thirteen miles to Round Hill, where unite
a number OF Washingtonians are stopping at
the cottages and boarding houses. The morn
ing ride has been through charming
country The troop forded the Shenandoah
at Castleman's ferry. the water coming
up TO the saddles. The route then
led through some magnificent farming land
lined with stone walls up through Smokers
gap. The view was extensive, and up through
the mountain the command scared humber of
inhabitants out of years growth by a lively
skirrnish drill.

A SHERMAN MAN BEATEN,
Alleged Significance of the Defeat Of Sena-
tor Cleveland OF Lancaster, Ohio.

Alleged Significance of the Defeat OF Sena-
tor Cleveland Of Lancaster, Ohio.
Special Dispatch to The Evening star.
COLUMBUS, July PA quiet but significant
convention was held at Lancaster last week to
nominate a republican candidate for state sem
ator for that district. Lancaster is well known
rs the birthplace of Senator Sherman. Henry
j. Cleveland, republican, represented that dis
tricti in the last general assembly and expected
q second term. Up to within a week of the
nomination there appeared to be no opposition
to him, but suddenly J. Q. Abbott, an ardent
admirer Of ex-Gov. Foraker, came into the
field and easily secured the nomination. the
Foraker republicans working hard for him and
taking advantage OF the inactivity OF the
friends Of Cleveland, who supposed his NOM
ination was assured.
Senator Cleveland says that shortly before
the convention he was written to by some one,
who pretended to be friend OF Senator Sher-
man, and was anxious TO know whether he
lCleveland) would support sherman for the
United States Senate. MIR. Cleveland replied
that he intended to support Mr.. Sherman. He
now believes that this was q decoy letter to
draw him out and was sent by a Foraker agent.
The defeat Of the Sherman candidate under
these circumstances and right in his own birth
place Is significant.
