The Seligmans announce the details of the United States Government loan and that they are prepared to remit subscriptions from here. It Is understood that the Brazilian funding scheme will soon be submitted to the bond holders by council of foreign bondhoders act ing for the Rothschilds, who presumably dis like association with Brazirs temporary de- fault.

CHICAGO GRAIN MARKET.

CHICAGO, June 1.-The furry yesterday seemed to have cleared the atmosphere on the Board of Trade and to-day there nothing to remind of the disturbance but the lower prices. The Letter deal was generally considered to be dead and buried, 80 far as the trading in deferred futures was concerned but the obsequies of the cash end of that remarka- ble speculation were still to be perfected. Wheat started not far from the closing prices of the day before for the bulk of the transac- tions although few sales were made at 1bc improvement in September and December de- liveries. Weakness very soon developed how ever, and July sold down cents and Septem- Der and December about 1hc each during tho half hours trading. It became rumored dur ing the forenoon that besides buying from Lei ter all the June wheat the latter had com ing to him, Armour had bought all the cash wheat held by the young speculator in Min nesota and Duluth: That gave little firner tone to the proceedings in the pit. The gather ing strength was increased when the r7irnor referred to received the substantial confirma- ton of the President of the Illinois Trust and Savings Bank To complete the bullish com bination the weather was still wet in Texas, where about half of the wheat is in shock, and it rained heavily in Kan sas and other Western States where wheat cutting had item of bullishness by cabling that the wheat throughout the East Central Russia was threatened with total failure from droIith and that the worst was probable unless rain re lieved the situation within a week The Liv- erpool quotations however were anything but

July at Liverpool had recovered about 6c per bushe of it's early loss before the close July closed with loss of ll2c and September Ac lower
 The continued showery weather and the more settled feeling in the wheat pit created a firm tone in corn. July closed unchanged
