WOES OF A WHEELMAN
FROZE HIS FACE AND HANDS NEAR
THE MoJAYE DESERT.
William L. Robinson has a Remark
able Time Crossing the Sierras in
Sort of Globe GirdIing Ride
Which He is Ta1<in g-Arrived in
the City at Noon Yesterday.

William 1. Robinson of Minneapolis ar
rived in the city yesterday at noon, on
his bicycle. There is nothing very start
ling about a man arriving in the city
awheel, but for the fact that Mr. Robin
son is a sort of globe trotter. or wheeler.
as it were. He left Los Angeles on May
4 and is en- route for New York and Bos-
ton and other eastern points in the inter
est of the Cleveland wheel, which he is
riding. Not the special wheel which he
bestrides. but all Cleveland wheels, he
being employed by the company.
Mr.. Robinson has had tough time of
it since he left Los Angeles. He left
there and skirted the Mojave desert and
encountered a northwest wind which was
so intensely cold that he froze his hands
and face. That was very good for a
starter. After passing Mojave and get
ting to Tehachapi he encountered blind
ing snow storm and was five hours in
getting tWenty-one miles, after escaping
from the drifts. Getting out of trouble
there, he took the San Joaquin valley,
where he got relief. The road for 300
miles is as level as a floor, and 100 miles
per day was a picnic run. After leaving
Sacramento he took the route via the
Central Pacific, and arriving at Colfax,
which is at an elevation of 400 feet,
found more snow. For fifty miles there
was snow along the track. He took the
railroad and rode along through the snow
sheds for forty-two miles, and when he
arrived at the summit found twenty feet
of good cold stuff in which to wallow. At
Truckee he encountered good weather,
which lasted MIN to Wadsworth. The
roads were all in fine condition, the grade
was down hill and the weather pleasant.
But after leaving WadsWorth and going
to Kelton. a distance of 500 miles, there
were no roads at ALL scarcely a trail, and
I - I,o<l 70 Ie,,- iI-co IL +Iay1
struck a greasewood country and while
travelling through it punctured his two
tires 275 times. From Kelton TO Ogden it
rained all the time and when he reached
the junction city on Saturday he was
weary, wet and hungry The wheelmen
up there took him in and dried him and
then showed him up the canyon and
around the town. He arrived in Salt
Lake yesterday at noon.
At Humboldt he was overtaken by j.
W. Willis who is riding to break the
record, and was with him two days, when
the latter left and plunged on into the
night. The present record Is forty-seven
days across the continent, and Robinson
says Wits is in a fair way to beat it,
despite the weather he is encountering.
He is riding day and night
Robinson has ridden $500 miles thus
far this year. From this city he will go
up Parley's canyon and down Chalk
creek to Echo canyon, from there to
| CHEYENNE and Denver, thence to Kansas
CITY, Minneapolis and Chicago and
thence to the east, by a route 70 be de-
ternfned. He will ride till cold weather
| arrives and expects to cover 5000 or TO-
600 miles this season.

TEYNEssEE,s ANNIyERsARy.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. June The
anniversary day dawned gloomily. AS
the day advanced rain began to fall.
The city's gay decorations were drench-
ed.
The great procession was to start at
$3.50 O'Clock, but SO foreboding was the
weather that the committee decided to
postpone the parade out to the exposi-
ton grounds until 11:30 Thousands
OF strangers are here to enjoy the dem
onstration in honor of the hundredth
anniversary of the state
While the rain still poured down,
order was issued to march at II O'Clock,
rain or no rain, and the parade took
place according to the programme.

NEWPORT, KY, June 1.-Scott
Jackson, by order of Judge Helm, was
transferred at o'clock today to the
Kenton county Jail, Covington, KY, as
a precaution against a possible jail
delivery.
In the Walling trial the testimony of
medical experts was continued.
Much stronger expert evidence that
the girl was killed on the spot was
obtained than that brought out in the
Scott Jackson trial. The mother and
sister of the dead girl, on the stand
this afternoon, Identifying the gar
ments of the girl, maintained control
of their feelings, but made strong
impression on the jury.

CHICAGO GENERAL MARKET.

Chicago, June 1.-Wheat-There was
good active trade and larger business,
the range for the day being 2A. The
early tone was firm. July. which on
Friday closed SIS, started at from
5S to 5S14, but after a short struggle
the bears got complete control and the
price went from bad to worse all
forenoon, July getting as low as 567s,
or 1 cent below the close of Friday
and the same as the lowest price at
which this May delivery sold in mid
winter. The steadiness early was at
tributable to the rains in the south
and southwest, decreased stocks at
Liverpool and advices from France re-
garding the outlook there, former es-
Inmates being lowered on account of
drought.
Under the indulgence of this news
there was fair buying by local traders
for awhile, but offerings increased
many coming from the outside, and
prices sold off quickly. The break at
Minneapolis, small, decreased visible
and the prediction of rising ten1pera-
ture and clear weather for the west
and northwest had a good deal to do
with the weakness. When the esti-
crop of 800 600 bushels winter and
1SO,00O,Go0 bushels spring wheat came
in, the weakness was increased, the
vicious selling finally carrying the
price off "a from the top point. Prices
continued weak to the close of the
session and though there was some re-
covery from the low point, the feeling
was decidedly weak and nervous, July
closing at 561s
Corn naturally declined in sympathy
with the extreme depression in wheat,
closing at a slight loss. A good bust
ness was transacted.
oats were Influenced by the same
conditions as corn and the close
showed a similar result.
Provisions were active, but at a con-
siderable reduction in prices. This
was caused by the enormous run of
hogs, and though fair support was CIV
en- for time, the closing feeling was
weak.
