CHICAGO, June 15.-An advance of
sc was scored in wheat to-day. Rus

feature of the advance. driving shorts

The first half of the session in the
wheat pit was marked by good deal of
apathy on the part of traders. The
opening in September ranged from 16 s
to 771sc compared with yesterdays
closing price of 1880 There was no
great buying demand at first and for
nearly half an hour the price hung
around those figures. The market be-
gan to broaden. and once started the
buying increased until the demand was
the heaviest seen in the pit for several
days. News regarding the condition
of the Russian crop dominated every
thing else. Beerbohm's statement that
the wheat crop was an entire failure
in large area north Of the Black Sea
was confirmed from many sources. The
first bulge carried September to 773sc.
This was call price, but selling against
those privileges did not check the rush
CT buying orders and the price contin-
ued to advance until September reach

days final figure and the profit proved
SO tempting that much long wheat came
out and checked the upward rush.

southwest were numerous.

September fiuctuated between 1890

There was firm. active market in
corn. Trading was influenced partly by
the strength of wheat. There was
good cash demand here and selling
against country acceptances was light.
Reports of the destruction of the bar
ley crop in six provinces Of Russia
helped the advance. Receipts were COL

Oats were in active demand and a

IRON TRADE CONDITIONS.

NEW YORK. June 15.-Discussing trade
conditions, the Iron Age will say to-day:
In place of any check of the upward
tendency in the iron markets. prices are
still rising all along the line and the feel
ing is growing more and more nervous
Consumption does not seem TO be checked
in any direction; on the contrary it is a
question more of delivery than of price
While it is true that the bulk of current
business in many lines is merely the COW
ering of urgent needs, II is equally true
that disposition to take hold for next
years delivery at or near present values
is developing.
The manner in which contracts are be-
ing covered for material for the balance Of
this year indicates that consumers do not
hope for any recedinx values Where usu-
ally contracts for long season are placed,
buyers. however. are not disro<ed - -

their usuaI custom. they are hot covering
beyond that period.
The scarcity Of Bessenaer pig continues
and some good sales have been made
In foundry iron the advance continues
under a moderate volume of business
The rush for material is well reflected by
the heavy sales of muck brass in the een-
trail west. one interest having sold 1900
tons in the last few days. The price has
now risen from s3125 to sSl5o We under
stand also that there have been some very
large sales OF sheet bars for the fourth
quarter
In bar iron the eastern as well as the
western markets have had an extraordi-
nary rush of business
The scarcity in plates continues, and
with the constant flow of new shipbuiiding
and bridge orders coming in, it looks as
plants would be wen taken care of.
Inquiries from abroad keep coming in.
but there is little chance of doing any
thing with them. In fact, strenuous eff
forts have been made to switch contracts
for delivery in Europe. taken long time
ago, over the English or Continental
plants. since the material could be resold
at handsome profit here But this has
been successful only to a moderate ex-
tent, and billets, wire rods, sheet bars,
etc, contracted for will have to be ship
ped.

 PREPARE YOUR GARDEN NOW.

As many of our readers desire to have nice garden next season, some probably arranging to grow vegetables for market, the follow ing suggestions from the Texas Farm and Ranch are very much to the point and opportune:
 Don't be afraid of getting too much manure on your garden. Forty two horse wagon loads per acre IS not too much. Spread it broadcast and blow under now. so you will have everything in shape when time to plant arrives. Hundreds, yea, thousands of people wait till the day before they plant to spread manure and blow it under in such shape that it is not assimilable. Plants can't eat because the food is raw. So it dies unused, and next sum- mor's heat dissipates the nitrogen. ammonia and other volatile elements and so 1t is lost. Don't wait till spring to begin preparation for your next gar den; begin now by liberal fertilizing. then turn up rough edged furrows and let the freezes mellow your soil before you plant. Do this. and you will have a garden that will surprise you.

AN ALLEGED FISH STORY.

The up-to-date Port Arthur News fills two columns of it's last issue with all account of a big fish oil mill to be established at that place, stating that $40 tons of machinery is on the way for use in the mills; that eight buildings two stories high and averaging about 40x125 feet are to be built for 1t, etc. The fish to make oil from are to be caught by steamers drawing huge nets and to be ut1- loaded by an elevator which dis charges them at the rate of 2,000 barrels an hour.
 These are to be cooked 1n a cooker having capacity of 1000 pounds per hour and the factory is to have a capacity of 10000 barrels of fish per day and IS to cost $2O0, ,000.
 What strikes Us as peculiar having known Editor Stump of the News so long-is that he should object to his plain state ment of facts being called fish story" as he does in another col umn of his paper. If he thinks the people will not believe him when he tells of the new indus tries started at his town he should procure the indorsement of Geo. M. Craig, the we'll known town site agent, as everybody on the line of the Pittsburg X Gulf swears by George and knows that he never, that IS, rarely ever, in- duiges in fish stories.

WHAT IS A DOLLAR?

One of the old free coinage argu- ments was based on the state meRt that thls is debtor nation. Times have changed It is now on the creditor side. No matter whether debtor or creditor. it will insist that 100 cents make a dollar.-St Louis Globe Demo crat.
 We care nothing for the free coinage argument" but when the Globe-Democrat talks about 100 cents making. a dollar we would like to know If there ever was a day since our financial system was formulated that 100 cents did make dollar.
 If 1t is intrinsic value that is being considered, we call atten- ton to the fact that seventeen cents worth of copper coined into cents make a dollar as counted in cents and at I1o time was dollar greenback ever worth less than 100 cents.
 The fact is the 100 cents to make dollar is very largely an ideal thing and gold, silver, cop- per or paper has but little to do with a creditor or debtor.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

By local applications as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deaf ness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inaamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inflamed you have a rum b. ling sound of imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed, Deafness IS the result, and unless the infiamma- tion can be taken ont and this tube restored to it's normal condition, hear ing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh, which is nothing but an infiamed con- dition of the mucous surfaces.
 We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall $ Catarrh Cure Send for circulars; free.

 TRACK MEN RUN DOWN.
men at a Tunnel and None Escape Without Injury

Altoona, Pa, Jan. 30. A gang of 26 track repairers were working on the railroad at the western opening of the Gallitzin tunnel yesterday afternoon when they heard the approach of a locomotive which was running west through the tunnel. The workmen all stepped from the north track, on which westbound trains move. to the south track. The smoke in the tunnel pre- vented them from seeing the approach ing locomotive, which, in order to avoid Instructions on the north track, was running on the south track. One man was instantly killed, one died in the Altoona hospital, and IS were more or less seriously injured. None es. capped without injury. The locomo- tive that struck the men was running empty from Altoona. to Conemaugh.

LAUNDERING THE PEOPLE.
The Van Buren Argus says:

The Waters Pierce Oil O.. at Fort Smith, in supplying their Van Buren customers with gasoline yesterday, notified them that that commodity had advanced 5 cents per gallon. This means that the consumers must dig down little deeper into their pockets every time they buy gallon of gaso- line, just to satisfy the inordinate greed of a corporation that would rob their patrons outright if they were not afraid of the law.
 Afraid of the law?" That corporation is a law unto itself and robs the people without let or intolerance whenever it pleases. With this corporation all compet ition is practically crushed out and an object lesson IS being given showing the peo- pie associations run by govern mental authority, or by and for the people will be greatly to their advantage and for the public veal.
