rines-Mayor Wurster's Speech.

NEW YORK, April Cat a meeting OF
the veterans of the Union League Club, of
Brooklyn, a suggestion was made that the
memory of Ulysses s. Grant, twice President
of the United States, should be perpetuated
by the erection Of an equestrian statue.
From that moment members of the club and
their friends worked arduously, and this aft
ernoon their efforts were rewarded by the
unwilling of a colossal equestrian statue Of
the General in front of the clubhouse at
Dean street and Bedford avenue, Brooklyn.
The statue, which is the work Of w. Ordway
Partridge, is In bronze. and weighs LOO
pounds. 1t is colossal, measuring from the
hoof Of the horse, where 1t rests on a granite
pedestal, to the top Of the hat Is feet s

cession reached the clubhouse Governor Nor

After the bands had played the Coronation

as the representative of Brooklyn. Up TO

CROP WEATHER
SENDS EVERYTHING TUMBLING ON
THE CHICAGO MARKETS.
Wheat Fell on Nearly a Cent, Corn
and Oats Easier and Lard Broke
All Low-Record Marks.

CHICAGO, April 25. The prospective
weather was the burning question in the
wheat pit. and 1t looks as if rain or no rain
in the far Northwest. and hot. dry weather
in the winter wheat country, or cooler,
slowly ripening conditions might govern the
market fluctuations for some time TO come.
The closing price for July was 64ssc. against
65Q6S1c yesterday. Corn and oats were
easier, and provisions broke previous low
price records for the season.
In wheat there was just a fair trade and
moderately active market, prices having a
7sQ1c range. The feeling developed was
easier, and lower prices ruled early and fair

were the smallest since June IS. 1852 SS. 900

bu for the same period in 1895. The weather
map showed better conditions in the North
west thar for some time, being clear and
warm. with only a trace of rain. July was
quite freely offered in a professional way,
and prices gradually sold off. Values were
steadied by the moderate Argentine ship
ments.
There was a moderate trade in corn and
a somewhat easier market, though the un-
dertone was steady and final figures showed
but &c loss. Corn sympathized with wheat
TO a noticeable extent. Trade was chiefly
in the way Of changing. Shippers took May
and sold September. the difference being
2ssc.
There was not as large a trade in oats,
with most of 1t changing from May to July
at NGSsc difference. May showed the most
weakness, declining &c, and closed at almost
the bottom. July was rather steady, but
closed 1sQAc lower and September Hc lower.
The big shorts covered yesterday and the
market had no help from the little ones.
