Secretary Gresham's Remains viii Be
Taken There on a Special Train.
WASHINGTON, May 2s.-The remains
OF Secretary of State Gresham have been
embalmed and will be committed to the
casket tonight The present purpose of
the friends of the family is to have fu-
neral train leave Washington tomorrow.
A special train will be provided, one car
to bear the remains and another for Mrs.
Gresham and her immediate relatives.
These arrangements, however, are sub
ject to such changes as Mrs Gresham
may desire.
Most of the prominent men in public
life called at the hotel early in the day
leaving their cards a food of tele-
grams and cablegrams of coincidence
came in during the morning. Early in
the day three messages had come from
Europe and kilograms from all sections
of the United States.
1t is the present intention of the fam
lily to have the body of Secretary Ores
ham buried in Chicago. A brief funeral
service will be held in Washin gton to-
morrow before the special train leaves
the city. Pres. Cleveland had not come
from in Woodley at 10 o'clock this morn
ing, and it was said by member of this
cabinet that he was i'll and might not be
able to drive from Woodley today
All the members of the cabinet who
are in the city, Secretary Carlisle being
absent, came to the Arlington early in
the day and most of the ladies of the
cabinet circle were also admitted to the
parlor adjoining the family apartments
of the late secretary.
Fronting on the same square and
hardly hundred yards distant a thedter
was building on the site of the historic
mansion where the life of James G..
Blaine had ended.
The line of callers who drove or
walked to the Arlington today included
representatives of all the official circles
of Washington, the cabinet. the supreme
court, the diplomatic corps, congress and
the army and navy.
The president and Mrs. Cleyeland
called at II o'clock to see the mem bers
of Secretary Gresham's family and to
tender their sympathy. The president
assisted Mrs. Cleveland to alight and
they were ushered into the famtly's pri-
vate apartments
Funeral services over the remains of
the late Secretary Gresham will be con-
Quoted in the east room of the White
! House at 10 o'clock tomorrow. All the
executive departments will be closed on
! that date under an executive order.
Bishop Hurst of the NJ Z. church, will
conduct the services About l o'clock
| the remains will be taken to Chicago.
Sir Julian Pauncefote, British ambas-
sador, as dean OF the diplomatic corps,
has addressed a letter to all ambassa-
dors, ministers and heads of foreign rep
reservations in Washington, asking them
to assemble at the British embassy at 5
p. m. today, to take appropriate action
on the death Of Secretary Gresham.
sculptor Dunbar at l o'clock made a
plaster cast of Mr. Gresham's head. In
giving directions for the inscription on
the coffin plate, Mr.. Otto Gresham stated
March IT, 1883, as the year of his fathers
birth. and it was so engraved, although
the biographies of Mr.. Gresham give the
year of his birth as 1882.

TODAY'S MARKET REPORT.
Furnished by the Associated Press to the
State Journal

Furnished by the Associated Press to the
State journal.
CHICAGO, May 28-Wheat had a wild
bull opening today aud within five min
utes from the tap of the bell was selling
&c higher than the price at which it
closed yesterday. But inside of another
five minutes it had lost 1sc of the gain.
The news was all of a buIlish character.
Yesterdays low barometer in the north
west which promised general rains over
the wheat belt had resulted only in light
shower here and there and the cold wave
was being followed by what promised to
be a scorching hot one. Perhaps the
most bullish piece of news, however,
was the report of King s. Co., of Toledo,
who summarized advices of over 1000
cores pondents in the wheat belt by say
that the indications were that in the SIX
principal wheat producing states that
not more than half an average crop
would be raised involving a reduction of
100 million in the crop aggregate for the
year. Cables were easier in sympathy
with our break of yesterday, but they cut
no figure in the market At the start
brokers stood in the pit with sheaves of
buying orders in their hands and the
opening was scramble to buy. The Of
fetal quotation for July at the outset
showed an advance of one cent over
night at 79M, though there were stimuli
taneous sales as high as 891Sc. The first
dash of buying orders put the price up
to 8034, and then heavy selling to take
the fine profits offered with slackening
in the buying after the early aceulnmu-
lation of orders had been filed, resulted
in quick breaG to 1928. This was fol-
lowed by rally to SOC, but it quickly
weakened again and sold down to 1911.
The receipts of corn we're again very
heavy amounting to 1925 cars, but the
dry, hot weather and the early strength
in wheat were sufficient to overcome
this bearish influence and to cause the
market TO open strong. July started 5sc
! higher at 90. advanced to 531I and broke
with wheat to the opening price.
Oats followed wheat and corn. July
began &c higher at 29X, advanced to
30I and sold off to 301a.
The receipts of hogs were much light
er than expected only 1900 against 20,
600 estimated, and provisions opened
strong and higher on that account
First sales of September pork we're at
an advance of 15c since yesterdays close
being made at $12 50 and it advanced to
$13.02N in a few minutes, but broke
with wheat and corn to $12.9215.
September lard sold between $6.8719
and $500 and September ribs between
$65215 and $657H.

LAWRENCE, May 29-The seniors of
the university will present a dramatic
effort in the form of French play under
the title, 1.-THE Society in Which One Is
Bored" The play will be given in the
Bowersock opera house on Wednesday
evening, May 90. Georgia Brown has
been training the seniors, and the play
promises to be interesting. What will
make the evening even more interesting
is the probability of a scene by the
juniors of the university. They have
vowed that they will "queer" the show,
and some excitement is looked for
When the seniors gave d reception in
Library hall, February 16, the juniors
appeared and made trouble, as a result
of which shot was fired, the bullet
lodging in the breast of a senior. The
seniors view the event with some appre-

men who will assist in the distur bance.

Wheat opened strong and higher again
as has usually been the case for several
days and did not decline to yesterdays
closing at any time. The declines were
small and were met with waves OF buying
orders that completely showed the sell
ers under
Crop damage reports are pouring in
thick and fast and are being confirmed
right along. The situation is becoming
sensational and we expect to see a runa-
way market before many days.
Crop damages from Argentine are be
coming serious and reported that the
India wheat crop will be very small.
Cash demand is all that could be
good. The big bears predicted
that any advance in wheat here
would stop export business but foreigners
are taking more of it now than they did
when it was 20 cents cheaper
The facts are European supplies are
very small and we are the only country
that can furnish it quickly, and
superior grade they must look to US for
their supplies
Wheat is on the road to dollar and
the trader that buys 1t on good breaks
will make IA fortune.
Corn and oats were firm and higher
all day. The Weather is too hot and windy
over the corn belt and if we
should have a drouth with the
shortest crop on record we would see
dollar corn also. Oats are reported to be
seriously dana ged by hot winds.
Provisions are strong with an upward
tendency. Buy pork on all breaks.

Indiana G. A. r. Objects to History
Taught in the Schools.
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, May 28-The state
board of education met in special session
te listen to a discussion of how the his
tory of the civil war should be taught in
the public schools of the state.
A committee from the G. A. R., head
ed by Commander Marsh of Winchester,
presented written protest against the
text book now in use The com
mittee maintained that use of
the book ought to be discon-
tinued for the reason that it contains no
suggestion that the men who fought for
the Union were right; that there is gem
eral unfairness in the treatment of SOL
diers of the north; it is misleading as
to facts and is calculated to
give false impressions to the
youth; it is unfair and classifying in tone
and sentiment
Theo G. Wilson, representing the pub
fishers of the book, maintained that it
was fair to both sides and did the mort b
full justice.

HAVE AN OIL REFINERY.
1t Is Probable One Will Be Built at Neo-
desha Soon.

NEoDEsHA, May 2S.-The people of
this place now feel confident that an oil
refinery is to be built. Guffey & Galley
are taking active steps in this direction.
The test of the car load of oil sent to the
refneries at Pittsburg was quite salts
factory, and proves the oil to be better
even than anticipated, but as it has be-
come evident that it requires somewhat
different process from that to which
other oils are submitted, the delay in
building the refinery has been for the
best, as, if the company had builded a
refinery according to the usual process,
it would have had to be materially
changed.
The stills, machinery, etc, will all be
made and built in eastern shops, of
course, and then shipped here to be set
up, and it will not be more than sixty
days after the machinery begins to arrive
before the refinery will be in operation

Judge Earle Seeks u Reelection With
Many Other Candidates in the Field.
MARION, May 2S.-The question of the
judicial campaign is beginning to agitate
the minds of the politicians of all par
ties. This county, with Mcpherson and
Chase. has formed the twenty fifth dis
trict for eight years. Its first judge was
Frank Doster, appointed by Gov. John
A. Martin. He was reelected and at the
end of his term he was defeated by
Lucien Earle of Mcpherson. The Re-
publicans and Democrats fused with
Earle as their candidate.
The last legislature attempted to abOl-
ish this district by attaching the counties
to adjoining districts, leaving Judge
Earle drawing his salary, but with other
judges holding the court in his counties.
1t is the opinion of many of the best
lawyers that the law is invalid.
Judge Earle has already announced
his candidacy for reelection in the old
twenty fifth district. Many other names
are mentioned. Among them are L. F.
Keller, brother-in-law of E w. Hoch.
T. 0. Kelley of Marion, G, F. Grattan and
NJ. P. Simpson of Mcpherson, among the
Republicans, and Henry Mclean, Dos
ter's law partner, of this place, and Den
| mis- NJ adden of Cottonwood Falls, among
the POpulists.
Earle cannot reasonably expect cleo
ton for he must have the support of the
Populists or the Republicans. He can
not expect Populist support because of
the fight made by him on Doster. His
letter from California last summer de
nouncing the strikers is still fresh in the
minds of the Populists, and as he rides
on railroad pass and sympathizes with
| the gold bug plutOcracy he cannot hope
for any support from the Peoples Party.
The Republicans are entitled to the
office, and as there is no hope of Pop
ulist and Democratic fusion on Earle
| they will phi I'D a candidate
