nessee, Surprises HTs Father.
Judge Henry w. McCorry had the proud
pleasure Monday night of greeting his
son and namesake, Henry w. McCorry,
ir., of Company F. Second Tennessee Vol
unteers. The judges home is in Jackson,
Tenn, but he has for some months been
detained in Washington by business. His
son is only fifteen years old but a very
determined lad, and when the war tocsin
sounded wrote his father that although
he preferred TO have his consent, lie was
determined to get to the front with the
boys of the Volunteer State. The consent
was conquered and Henry, son of Henry,
a four years rebel under the Stars and
Bars, is a sworn volunteer TO fight Tor
the Stars and Stripes whenever they un-
furl to battle.
The lad got leave to come TO town Mon
day and gave his father surprise. The
first thing the judge did was 10 ask his
boy is he wasn't hungry. With expectant
enthusiasm Henry, junior, avowed he was
indeed.
well, come along said the judge.
and, going TO a first-class restaurant
after kissing his boy for grace before
meats, provided for him supper enough 10

SLUMP IN THE WHEAT MARKET
Sensational Drop I'm May the Over

Chicago, May 31.-Those who expected
extraordinary prices in May wheat were
disappointed today. What little short in
terest was left was settled Saturday. May
almost instantly after the opening drop
ped to sL25, after having closed at s1.75
Saturday. All the artificial support was
gone, except at a decline of 80 cents. This
sensational drop in May was the over
shadowing feature. 1t was the same way
in the other markets. although not to
such degree in the Northwest.
The ordinary news was exceedingly
bearish and deferred futures would have
been weak If there had been no sensa-
tional May decline. The worlds ship
ments exceeded 100000 bushels India
contributed over 100000 bushels, Russia
100000 bushels. Liverpool was closed.
Paris was strong with evidently a May
squeeze in flour there. July was off 10c
from Saturday, and did not rally much
from the bottom. September, at one time
showed a loss of 2 5-S cents. Il opened at

LIVELY ROW IN PROSPECT.
VirEininns Object to Serving Under
Officers From Other States.


The beginning of a bad disagreement
between the adjutant generals office and
the people and congressman OF Virginia,
and o.her nearby States. has been made.
The trouble is in brief. that Virginia,
especially, says that the office is discrim-
mating against herin the matter of officers
for the regiment of immunes that is being
recruited in this vicinity.
Senators Daniel and Martin called on
Secretary Aiger yesterday yesterday and
made a strong protest.
The adjutant generals office is recruit
ing the regiment Of immunes from the
District OF Columbia. Virginia, West Vir-
ginia, North Carolina, and Maryland. Col
James s. Petit, of the office. is doing the
recruiting. The regiment is filing up well
and il is said that there will be no trouble
in raising the necessary men. Col. Petit
has already begun to choose his officers.
The curious fact developes. however. the
yirginians say, that while Virginia has
furnished a large number of the men, or
is willing TO do so, the officers are being
taken from anywhere else than Virginia
Several have been appointed from North
ern States.
1t is said that the Virginia senator's
professed the belief that Virginians will
object to serving as privates where their
State is not represented among the off,
GERS.
Col. Pettit's side of the affair is that the
regiment is a United States volunteer reg
iment and not in the least in the class of
State regiments already chosen. He said
he is choosing his officers for their mill
tary experience and their familiarity with
army life in the South. Nearly all the
officers chosen so far are familiar with
yellow fever problems and thus are es-
pecially fitted, he says.
He says he is not conscious of having
shown any particular favoritism.

there was anything like a victory against
all the defeat Now. however, It is said
that the Spanish officials have given up
entirely and only desire peace at any
price.
1t may be said with a good deal of
truth now that the only fear Of the Unit
ed States is that the war will be ended
too soon. If Santiago is taken Spain may
sue for peace. She may hasten TO sur
render before Porto Rico IS taken. But
the United States would not then as some
people seem to think be forced TO give up
Porto Rico. Surrender by Spain would
mean complete surrender or the United
States would not accept it, President Nc
Kinley would say TO Spain that there
must be no conditions except such as
might be fixed by the United States
These conditions would undoubtedly be
| the surrender of Porto Rico as well as
the Philippines and Cuba. This, l am
told on excellent authority.
This talk of peace negotiations and the
possibility at least that the United States
may have fought the war in a few weeks
without any loss of life comparatively,
and with no loss of property in the least
commensurate with the gains of territory
is the best possible reason to make a bull
| market If the war ends in this way 1t
Will be the first on record In the whole
worlds history with such a one-sided
| loss. However, while this is at least a
possible ending to the war there is also
to be taken into consideration the chance
that the United States may lose many
| men in Cuba, and that Spain may refuse
| to surrender for months to come This
will not prevent good bull market, how
| ever, while the present good fortune of
| the United States continues.
| The Rock Island dividend will be an
nounced today. It may safely be pre-
dicted that there will be a per cent
| cash dividend and also scrip. The
| earnings of the Rock Island have been
excellent and everything else in the pros
pect of the road is as fine as II could be.
| Rock Island led the market yesterday
| with an advance of a point and a quarter
and the net advance was three quarters

There was a fine market yesterday, as
every body knew there would be. Il was
perhaps as sure a thing yesterday that
the market would advance as anything
is sure in stock gambling, London bought
and was strong all through its day. New
York took up the buying as soon as the
opening and continued IL with very little
recession throughout. The advance was a
point or more all over the board. Toward
the close the highest point was receded
from but only 10 a small extent. The
sure bottling of Cervera, of which news
was received over the holidays, was the
main reason for the advance. The results
which must follow this victory for the
United States are not hard to see. AL
ready there is talk of Spain suing for
peace, and this time it is not premature
probably. Spain cannot hold out long
and will not care to when the chance for
even one victory has passed utterly.
There was the chance of victory for her
as long as the fleet was at large, and
while there was the slightest hope the
Spanish officials earnestly worked for it
knowing that the settlement of the war
with the people would be much easier if
there was anything like a victory against
all the defeat Now, however, It is said
that the Spanish officials have given up
entirely and only desire peace at any
price.
