WEATHER AND CROPS
Weekly Bulletin OF the Weather Bureau for
Southern California

Weekly Bulletin of the Weather Bureau for
Southern California
For the week ending Monday, June 3d.
Cooler weather than usually occurs at
his period of the year prevailed until
the close OF the week, when a hot spell.
set in, which continues at the closi ng OF
this report. Brisk northerly to westerly
winds prevailed on the 2Sth and 29th =,
which caused dust and sand storms to
occur in the interior, but which did no
injury so far as reported. The cool
weather was unfavorable for the bean
crop. as it retarded the growth of the
plants and prolonged the life of the
worms which have been injurious in
some places. The grain harvest con-
tinues and haying is practically finished.
San Luis Obispo-The weather was fa-
vorable for all crops. No damage has
been reported from high winds. The
highest temperature was 10 degrees; low
est, AZ degrees. Eleven one -hundredths
of an inch OF rain fell on the 9th and
2Sth.
Ventura county. Barsdale-The wealth
er continues quite cool and is not favor
a BILE for the bean crop, as it retards the
growth and continues the life of the
worms that have destroyed the plants Sc :
riously in some spots. Other crop condi
tionS are ormal.
Los Angeles county, La Canada Hay
is being secured in fine shape. The pros
poets for large and excellent fruit crop
were never better. The cherry crop is
good in quality and bountiful. Aprcots
are commencing to turn. The highest
TEN perature was 20 degrees; lowest, AZ
degrees.
Pasadena-The cool weather wound up
on the 23d in very hot spell, which ran
the temperature up in the sos. Grain is
looking well and fruit very large and
full. The seasonal rainfall to date is
p. .04 inches.
Pomona--Summcr is here with cloud
less skies and the daily trade wind from
the ocean. The last days of May were
blustery with west winds stronger than
usual. but not harmful. Everything is
growing well. Hay is a large crop and
is being harvested rapidly. The apricot
and prune crops are too small to need
heavy and many are wisely thinning. AS
indicated now, the next orange crop will
be large.
Los Angeles city Cooler fair weather
prevailed till the I'd. The mean tempera-
ture foi the week was three deg rees less
than the weekly normal. The highest
temperature was SO degrees; lowest, AZ
degrees.
Redlands. San Bernardino county
Apricots grown in this vicinity are in

Russin's Meat r1arkct

WASHINGTON.Jun j une 5.-Consul~ Gener-

state department u report upon the efforts
Russia is now making to overcome the
obsctacles which interfere with the export
of her cattle and meats 20 different Euro
pean markets. AT present no Russian cat
tie are exported to Austria. England
France or Germany, exports of such cat
tie being confined to Turkey. Italy,
Greece and the island of Malta. Russian
meats are allowed in Germany but the
quarantine rules. it is commended are be-
ing abused to its exclusion. England
admits Russian meat but complains of
the quality. Lately it has been found
very suitable for beef tea and demand
created. it being used almost exclusively
for that purpose. The largest consumer
of imported meats is England, that
country using ], 440 $50, 600 to l ,e6l. $50, 900
pounds annually. Russia exported in
1893 only 1900 cattle. s2., 200 hogs. 1853. =
600 sheep and meat to the value of 175. 900
rubles. The United States supplies about
three-fourths of all the meat for the

WALL STREET SPECULATION
The Bears Take the Reins on the Stock
Market
Covering by Shorts Leads to Partial Recovery
of Prices but the Market Closes
Generally Weak.

NEW YORK, June 5.--The stock mar
ket today was largely in the hands OF
professional bear traders. Speculation
was weak at the opening under an active
selling movement in which the 70 eign
houses were prominent, the market fol
Americans in London being also weak.
The coal shares led the downward move
ment, buyers being very scarce except at
low figures. About delivery hour the
dealings lost their nc OF depression.
Then some of the shorts began to cover,
with the result that small recoveries were
made, but in the final dealings part OF
this rally was lost and the market closed
unsettled. prices in the main being lower
OH the day.
The weakness of the share speculation
was impaired to the speculative class in
the bond market and material recessions
followed, notably IN Reading mortgages.

The refusal of the porte to ubmit to

kets today. but consols and other invest
ment securities were strong. American
shares were the weakest feature. There
was not much selling, but it was difficult
to find buyers. They closed dull for New

a further improvement will require slim
