the volume OF business Wool remains
steady at last weeks advance, specula-
ton having been stimulated by differences
OF opinion as to the tariff outlook for
that staple. Wheat has advanced, In
sympathy with corn, on increased orders
and reports OF crop damage from abroad
while corn's sharp advance Is due parity
to exaggerated notions OF damage from
drought There Is little likelihood or tha
crop being smaller than In either OK tho
two preceding years, Notwithstanding our
adyices OF 25 per cent. damage In Kansas
and " per cent. in Nebraska. Southern
crop prospects are generally excellent
The war between China and Japan nas
not affected tho price OF tea here yet,
though an increased demand Is noted az
New York, Boston, and Chicago. Cable
sdyices regarding crops OF tea are about
the same as last year. II the tea ports
should be closed, high prices would follow
quickly. China exports but little rice
and Japans rice export season IL passed,
while we are entering upon new crop.
The prices Of rice would probably be
sharply affected should the war continue
another season. They may Do moderately
enhanced i'm any event.
Added interest In wool has character
tied the Philadelphia as wen as the Bos-
ton markets. Slight increases In the de-
mand in nearly all leading lines are re-
ported from Pittsburg. and at Baltimore

shoes report business more encouraging.
Providence jewelry manufacturers report
orders very small and the outlook not
promising.

crate gains and fair prospects for the

AFTER MANY BALLOTS.
A Texas Congressional Convention Give Up
Trying to Nominate-Silver.

DALLAS, TEN, August 3.-After 12i
ballots for the nomination OF a candi-
date. the Democratic congressional con-
vention at Corsicana adjourned at noon
to-day to meet at Dallas August 2lst.
From start to finish the vote stood:
Burke. 81; Poindexter, 80; Abbott, IL;
Hardy. 10 IL is certain as matters now
stand that neither Of these candidates
can get the nomination. II Is thought
the adjournment TO Dallas will help
Burke. whose home is here.
The adoption OF a Is TO silver resolu-
ton by the convention created some in
dignation among the Cleveland people OF
Dallas. They held an indignation meet
ing this afternoon and passed resolu-
tions denouncing their delegation for
that.
