MINNEAPOLIS MARKETS.
Chamber Of Commerce.

The speculative market opened quite
strong and fairly active, soon became dull
and ruled heavy throughout the remainder of
the morning session. The early activity was
to large extent due the anxietp of num-
Der of local shorts to cover. The news of
rain and storm throughout large areas of the
winter wheat district caused them to feel
uery tlmid. Early crops were all rather
bearlsh i'll tone and also nearly all the adYices
regarding the crops in Kansas and Missouri.
The trade generally are feeling very timid
about doing anything The bulls
feel that reaction is due, but are afraid TO
DO anything TO bring it about and for the
present il appears that their only hope is 10
let the bears have their own way and let
them get heavily short and then have the
satisfaction OF settling with them later on.
Conservative traders recognize that the pit
element is decidedly bearish, and the specu-
lauve spirit Is not strong enough to carry the
market up in the face of such glorious crop
prospects. The foreign situation appears
to cut no figure with the average
trader. Beerbohm first cable quoted:
"Cargoes off coast slow; cargoes
on passage quiet; French country mar
kets easier; Liverpool spot at opening,
not much inquiry" Later cables were
little stronger in tone, saying that holders
were firm and not inclined TO grant conces-
sions. London cable advised that tropical
heat in Russia is damaging crops. The Price
Current, in its crop summary. says: Rains
in wide area have threatened something of
disaster to wheat, notably in Kansas and
Missouri, where an appreciable improvement
has occurred. Many cases where evidence is
palmer than previously of injury from in
sects. large part Of the returns maintain
favorable views of full crop, evidently not
much shortened. Rains have decidedly i'm

An Archduchess Writes Play.

The Archduchess Valerie, the young
est and lately married daughter of the
Emperor Francis Joseph, is taking her
imperial mothers place during the lat
ter's absence from court. The youth
full and charming princess held a re-
ception the other day, at which the
whole diplomatic body appeared. She
and her husband, Archduke Francis
Salvador, after visiting the empress at
Laing, returned to Lichtenegg to meet
the Archduchess Gisela of Bavaria and
her two daughters, whereas the empress
herself left for Munich on visit to her
aged mother, the Duchess Ludovica of
Bavaria.
The archduchess met with good deal
of opposition when she attempted re-
Gently to produce her drama, "A Golden
Eagle,'' at the theater OF GratZ. Only
the timely arrival of the empress saved
the work from the dreaded basket to
which the effoIts of humber writer's are
so ruthlessly consigned. The arch
duchess has imbibed some of the prin-
ciples of Heine, her mothers favorite
poet. and encroached little too freely
upon the domain of politics in her plav.

WHAT SHALL THE INVALID
EAT?
An AppetEzing, strengthening, and
Easily Dieested Diet is Neces-
sary for Rapid Re-

Miss Parloa, the authority on cooking,
saws: "I'here is no reason why SICK
people should take insipid, tastelesS
food, but how seldom it is that they get
anything else"
A friend of mine was recovering from
n wasting fever, and kind hands pre-
pared beef tea, cruel, and other taste
less dishes that are supposed TO be the
only proper food for inyalidS. Instead
of gaining strength he became weaker
and finally was able to sup few spoon
fulls OF coffee only. He said to me
afterwards, lit was getting to be
serious question what to eat to suS-
tain life. Finally my wife had an idea:
My youngest boy was bottle baby,
brought up on well-known artificial
food, and she reasoned that If this food
agreed with his weak stomach. it ought
TO with mire. To please my palate she
favored it with little extract of vanilla.
1t tasted good, and, what was more,
built up my weakened system. 1t was
so agreeable, palatable and satisfying
that Lactated FOOD and | now are fast
friends"
In recent article by DR.. Isaac Farrar,
upon food for invalidS, dySpepticS, and
the weak, notice he states that Lac
tated Food is the most easily digeSted of
any article of food, and nearly equals
beef in strengthening elements that
build up muscle, bone and flesh"
My friends experience is valuable. 1t
shows that there is diet for invalids,
for dyspeptics, for the aged, and for all
whose digestion is weak, and that not
only is a delicacy. but strengthens and
builds up the enfeebled system, thus
bringing back health, strength and vi
talitY.

UNSTEADY MARKETS.
The Feeling in the Wheat Pit
Was Strong at the
Opening.
Early Strength Did Not Hold
Out During All the
Trading.
Corn, Oats and Provisions
Also Displayed Unreliable
Features.
A Stagnant Condition Pre-
walls in Wall Stteet
Markets.

CHICAGO, June 25.-First sales of wheat
this morning were made at immaterial
changes from the closing prices of yester
day, but the feeling was decidedly strong for
a time. Shorts covered freely and the offer
ings were meager and prices went up rapidly
gaining about 7sc in a few minutes. This
strength was in the face of weak cables and
was due almost entirely to weather condi-
tons in the Southwest. Rains were reported
in Kansas and Missouri. and in Nebraska
there had been a phenomenal downpour,
as well as destruction by floods in
Northwestern Iowa The Cincinnati Price
Current, in its summary of crop conditions,
reported impairment in some sections
by recent rains, and especially in Kansas and
Missouri. In addition to this. Beerbohm
sent a telegram reporting the wheat crop in
Russia as being injured by almost tropical
heat. The weakness in foreign markets did
not show any alarm on the other side in con-
sequence of this, but local shorts were made
nervous on account of Ii, when taken i'll con-
nection with other adverse news. On free
covering by shorts and some investment
buying the advance above noted was easily
brought about. But after the most urgent buy
erS had filled up the advance came to a halt
sellers became more numerous. prices com
menceC to Wobble and finally broke; but this
was followed by a recovery. Late cables
showed considerable decline in prices at
yesterday, at 52Isc. advanced to 93c, broke to
R12c, reached to 93l6c closing at 03c. Par
dridge was seller of the December option
Corn was also very strong for a time, though
the first transactions were at a shade below
yesterdays close. The renewal of bad
weather i'll the Southwest and heavy rains In
Nebraska and Iowa, together with the buoy
ancy in wheat early in the day, all contrib
uted TO develop strength, and started shorts
to covering on an extensive scale. Later,
when the estimates for tomorrow were
posted, showing prospect of heavy
receipts. the market began to break
and the weakness was increase

Henrietta RusselI's Bonnet

Mrs. Edmund Russell, the woman
who teaches people how to sit down and
get up correctly and is an expert as a
judge of female beauty, wears the most
marvellous and delightful little bonnets
ever seen. They are usually of steel,
copper, gold, or pearl passementerie,
have no strings or trimming, and fit the
head just as did those beautiful cans
worn by the Florentine ladies. 1t has
beena Jest among Mrs. Russell's friends
that very lately her husband sent her
new bonnet in letter. A marvellous
necklace in Mrs. Russell's possession
came from the land of the Sphinx, and is
a thin chain of gold, pendant from
which are square turquoises, etched
with gold. The turquoises are quiet
rather than glazing blue. and for that
reason are extremely becoming.

Jenness-Miller's Magazine Has a
Few Divided Skirts Left,

New YORK, June 25.-The establish
ment of the Jenness- Miller Magazine
company, which has been the head
quarters for the woman's dress reform
movement, is in the hands of the
sheriff. Suits for an aggregate amount
of So have been brought against the
company. The largest creditor is the
Trow Printing and Publishing COM
pany, which has been printing the
magazine. A deputy sheriff who is in
possession of the premises says that
most of the Jenness- Miller garments
were made by the Ypsilanti Manufac-
turing company. of Ypsilanti, Mich,
and that these, to the value of So, 900,
were repleyined by that company be-
fore the present suits were begun.
Gail there is here besides the office
furniture" he said, consists of old
members of the magazine, few union
suits and small stock of divided
skirts" The present difficulties are
said to come from mixing up the maya
zine and garment business with the
pattern business. 1t is also stated by
representatives of the company that the
creditors will lose nothing.

THE PULLMAN SUIT.
President Miller States His Side
of the Case.

Oh the case.
CHICAGO, June 5.-Concerning the
suit brought by the Pullman Palace Car
company against the st. Paul road to re-
cover the amount of its interest in the
sleeping cars used by the latter COM
pany. President Roswell Miller, of the
st. Paul, said: 1.-The Pullman COM
pany was owner of one-fourth inter-
est In forty-ive cars used by our
company. We owned a three-fourths
interest. Our contract gave us the right
to buy their one-fourth interest when
the contract terminated at valuation
to be agreed upon by arbitrators. In
endeavoring to agree upon the valuation
controversy arose as to certain items
and as to certain amounts which we
claimed to be due us under the contract
for erroneous charges made by the Pull
man company during the life of the
contract. We shall be glad to have the
matter settled by an impartial court. If
the Pullmans' One-fourth interest in our
cars was worth 100000, as alleged, it
was high time for us to begin operating
them ourselves"
