The chief items of news to-day were
the signing of the Gas bills by the gov

the first increase in the latter's earnings

annually, was announced, and although
the reduction had been expected, ut led
to further weakness and decline of 3 per
cent.

New York, June 3.-(Special)-Wheat

der the stimulating influence of sharp
rally in prices in the Liverpool and Paris
markets, supplemented by mixed crop re-
ports and lighter Northwest receipts.
Futures at Liverpool opened y higher and
subsequently advanced IA additional,
and closed firm at the advance. Private
advices attributed the improvement to less
favorable crop accounts from this side
and the English visible showing decrease
in May of nearly 100000 bushels, and
to general covering of shorts and re-buy-
mig for the rise. In the late trading, the
market developed easiness ON subsid-
ence of the buying power and heavy real
ling through brokers by the large oper-
ators on the disappointingly light cash
and export demand the prices slowly re-
acted and closed with net gain of but
81 cents for July and unchanged for the
later months compared with last might 5
prices. Corn was active and firmer, ON
good buying for both long and short ac-
counts on less favorable crop reports.
Prices advanced II to Is cent and closed
