WHEAT WEAK AGAIN.

| The Collapse of the European War Scare
Knocks the Bottom Out of the Market
Corn and Oats Quiet and Easy-Provis-
ions Heavy.
CHICAGO - Wheat opened decidedly
lower this morning on weaker cables and
the collapse of the European war scare.
There was free selling at the outset, Decem.
Der going at 9614@965sc, but the shorts, who
have profited by recent experiences in
wheat, when they were badly squeezed be-
cause they waited too long, began to take
their profits freely, and their buying soon
put the prise mp to 971sc. Then came the
report of yesterdays clearances at the At
lantic seaboard, showing an aggregate OF
over 100000 bushels, which gave added
strength to the market and caused a squirt
of buying which put December up to 9l15c.
The price hung about that figure for some
time.
Later:it was reported that Br0dStreefs made
an increase of over 5 600 600 bushels in the
available supply east of the Rockies during
the last week. and weakness was developed.
December sold back to $3.50 There was a
recovery during the last hour, as BrddStreet S
report, when posted, showed that the in
crease was not as large as at first reported,
being 4 go 900 bushels for both coasts. De-
cember sold up to size again, broke to 9634c
on weak closing cables, improved some, and
closed steady at &c, loss of &c compared
with the closing figures of yesterday.
Corn opened easy on account of the fine,
warm, maturing weather in the corn belt
and in sympathy with the lower prices for
wheat. October started at 5S16@54c, against
81 &c at the close yesterday; advanced with
wheat to 541sc, broke to 5sslc recovered
some, but weakened again selling off to SIC
and closing easy at 5S1sc. The market was
very weak during most of the session, due
chiefly TO the fine weather.
Oats we're quiet and easy in sympathy with
corn.
The provision market was heavy from
start to finish, and the lowest prices of the
session were current as the market closed.
The decline since yesterday amounts to a0c
per barrel in pork, l0c peri 100 pounds in lard,
and from 714@l211zc per 100 pounds in ribs
The leading futures ranged as follows. as cor
rected by John NJ. Oakley & Co., IS Sixth street,
members of Chicago Board Of Trade.

for laying up low-priced peaches is evil

up to the awnings. Everything in the vege-

Plucky and Successful.

An Abilene boy has been heard from
in an eastern college The many
friends of Geo. IL. Mcclellan, formerly
bookkeeper at Hodge Bros. and later
employed as Y. NJ. G. a. secretary at
different points in Kansas, will be glad
to learn of his success.
Last September he entered Philips
academy, Andover, Mass, and by
close application to his studies has
won many honOrs. In the winter by
two successful attempts at story writ
ing he won for himself the position as
editor of the college paper. In'May at
the annual speaking for the Means
prize, which was open to the whole
school of 400 students, ten papers were
chosen, Mr.. McClellan's being one of
the number and carried off the third
prize. Not content with that he enters
still further into tue contest and June
22nd he carried off two first prizes
one on extemporaneOus speaking and
the other on debate.
What seems all the more remarkable
is the fact that this young man is
working his way through college and
much time was given to
outside work. This is another instance
of what pluck and push will do.

Barrels by Post.

We had sent our baggage, as we had
been advised, to the post office, where
we at once went. The bag which we
wished to post to Zermatt seemed to us
very heavy, but scythes and barrels and
bundles of old iron, labeled and adj
dressed, were lying on the floor. and
we supposed it must be all right,
though the postmistress, as soon as we
had paid our money, turned away with
out giving us stamps or receipt, and had
nothing more to do with us. We need
not have worried, for the Swiss post
Office takes anything and everything
that the express companies at home
would carry, and if one does not bother
about his baggage it is as certain to
turn up at his journeys end as 1t would
be to disappear in England If one ven
tured to let it take care of itself. j.

A MONTH OF EXTREMES.
Prof Snow Says That June Was Very
Rainy.


Prof, Snow, of the State university,
furnishes the REFLECTOR a report of
June's weather. He says:
The month was one of extremes,
June 1876 seems to have been very
similar one. And it and the present
month lead the other years Of our
record in inches of rain and percentage
of clOudiness. This is the coolest June
since 1856, and but three have been
cooler. The barometer column was
lower, with two exceptions, 1881 and
1883, than in any other Jane of our
record; while the humidity of no other
June has approached that of the
present one. The wind was consider
ably below the average.
Mean Temperature-7O.74 degrees,
which is 2.65 degrees below the June
average. The highest temperature
was 9O.5 degrees on the 2Sth; the low
est was So degrees on the 18th.
Rainfall -10.15 inches, which is ). IS
inches above the June average. Rain
fell in measurable quantities on is
days. There were thunder showers.
The entire rainfall for the six months
of 1891 now completed, has been 1884
inches, which is 11.S1 inches aboYe the
same months in the preceding % years.
The highest wind velocity was 40 miles
an hour on the 18th. There were two
fogs and the average barometer was
%. 997 inches.
