fention to order and introduced DR.. j x.
u, Evens, or Holding College, who form
adoy opened the convention with prayer,
In she course Of which he entreated that
ruIp be driven. from the. country and
that saloons oease to exist. A number
of belated delegates sought seats after
prayer, and the Silver Lake ouartette.
OF New York State, rendered a temper
ance selection while order was again
being restored. They received an en-
core.
Rev. DIR. Lockwood, of Cincinnati, .on
behalf Of the city and the. State OF Ohio,
welcomed the delegates. He delivered
his address in full dress suit. Prot
Dickte responded to the address. He
closed by naming ex.Gov ST. John as

In tho convention occurred on. the oues-
tion OF adopting the temporary rules.
prepared by the national committee.
These provided that only the delegates
present should DO entitled to vote.
This would have deprived " number Of
far of States, especially those in the
extreme South, of part OF their repre-
sentation in the temporary organization,
as all their delegates could not come on
account OF expense.
D. Is. Cranfl, of Texas, took the lead
IN behalf OF these delegates He said
that III the rules wore adopted it would
leave the control Of, the convention in
the States around Cincinnati. 1t would
cost 800 to send thirtyffve delegates
OF Texas here, and they could not Of
lord 1t. The temporary rules would be
the permanent rules. He moved that
each delegation have a right to cast it's
full vote whether all the delegates were
here or not. After Il lively tilt Cranffll
carried his amendment on q rising vote.
and then The rules, with this amend
ment, were adopted.
The roll States. WAS called for the
announcement Of the committee of mem.
bership. There was another Campaign
tune sung by the QAortette and then the
convention took a recess, after giving
directions to the committees to proceed
vt once to the work assigned them.
The most interest center ed in the mem
oership OF the platform committee and

CHICAGO. june 25.-The Derby para
lyzed trade on Change to-day. and the di-
rectoIs readily closed the session forty-five
minutes before the usual hour There was
a poor excuse for n wheat market most of
the session. The principal matters 10 con-
slider were the weather. the hary esting re-
ports and the probabilities of the anti
option bill. None of these contained any
thing to change prices much. Fluctuations
were confined to A0So range, and the
closing was about bo lower than yester-
day. The corn market was not quite so
narrow as wheat. What action there was
occurred the first hour. The receipts. Ow-
ing probably TO railroad washouts, fell
considerably under the estimate, at 53l cars
for the day. The grading was not
improved, with only forty-fOur cars
contract corn. The trades were at
about the final figures Of yesterday.
Upon the filling of q few outside buying
orders which came In, the market frmed

rallied. and at the close July had gained
sake. and September but a fraction.
Oats closed from $50 to $50 lower on tho
near futures, and about steady on the de-
ferred deliveries. Trade was featureless.
An advance of .l2lac in lard for the day
was the feature of the provision trade.
The demand was remarkable from first
to last and the offerings were light. While
pork and ribs &ere a little active and
higher. the advance was not in keeping
with lard, usually the slowest thing on the
list. The receipts of hoes were light.
which may nave ENCOURAGED the buyers for
the long account and caused some buying
also for shorts.
Lake rates were rather slow. The rapid
current in tho river prevents vessels from
getting to the elevators to load. Rates
held steady at &c for wheat and lac for
corn to Buffalo.
Estimated receipts for Monday: Wheat,
