Picking Up July.
The wheat market for the opening week
of the month Of May supplied one Of the
most sensational records for many years.
The situation developed has frequently been
predicted during the last several months as
the evident outcome of the shortness of the
worlds supply. recognized ever since the crop
Of 1897 was harvested; but the suddepness
and sharpness of the realization took good
many people by surprise. Even the bull ele-
ment was unprepared for the racket when
it occurred. and failed to be possessed of
quantities at all commensurate with their
ideas Of what ought to prove a satisfactory
basis for profit.
Closing price of May wheat in Chicago April
so was $1.20A; that of July was CSC in the
same market. May reached $l70 in Chicago
during the transactions of Saturday last or
gain OF 49Mc in one week, though it reach
ed and closed at $1.65. The following are
the quotations in the markets named for the
July option at the close of business Satur-

No prediction respecting the market at S
present stage is worth advancing. 1t is now,
apparently, a hand-to-hand struggle to Sc
cure wheat at any price, and no one can in
teiligently anticipate what the next turn is
to be. though. judging from the way in which
the millers of the Northwest are absorbing
all offerings of July. deliveries under that op

Our people remember we'll the
burning OF the church mortgage,
and the report made al the time

of the church here, but has been
equally efficient in out side work.

The foregoing from the

young man of talent and indus

experience as pastor and evan

no doubt give him a strong hold
