PRODUCE.

CHICAGO, June 9-The signal SER
vice prediction of rains in the north
west caused stampede of longs to-day
and when the session ended July was
15sc under yesterday The other mark
cts were influenced by the break, corn
closing 1@11sc, oats 3sc and provis-
ions 5@1212c lower
The wheat pit was crowded again
to-day, but the market was weak. The
opening was erratie, July at 72A 10
7112e, compared with last nights close
at 723s 34c. A few minutes later July
was quoted at 7138@he. The slump
was due to the weather bureaus pre-
diction of rains in thenorthwest; COM
bined with report from Minneapolis
that rain had begun falling there.
These items caught the market at the
opening and the value of wheat gave
a lightning change exhibition in de-
Ginning. 1t looked as if everybody had
wheat for sale at this period but there
were a few heavy longs who still held
out. Their attitude, coupled with pro-
fit taking by shorts who sold last
night, caused rally to 71He but this
was lost, July slumping to TIC.
Again there was support, possibly en-
couraged by the crop reports from the
northwest which were as unfavorao!e
as ever, and July once more touched
717se. Again the pressure of long STUFF
made itself felt and this time July
dropped to Tic, closing after in \ weak
ened condition, Use under YESTERDAY
at 10 Bc.
The corn market opened weak in
sympathy with wheat and the weak
ness continued throughout the day with
favorable crop reports and liberal
country offerings as contrtbutary in
tuences. July opened at 40 to 391sc
and showed no strength thereafter,
closing at the bottom, 1Q11sc down at
39c. Trade early was moderately act
i've, but later the pit was quiet.
The experience in oats was in min
iature similar to that in the other grain
markets. There was a rush to sell early
but very little demand until liberal
concession in price had been made. July
sold between 229s and 22c, closing &c
down at 221sc.
The grain weakness, liberal offerings
and general dullneSs caused easinesS
in provisions. The reduction was in
spite of and advance of Cd in ham and
bacon and Sd in lard at Liverpool and
steady market at the yards. July
pork sold between S11 So and S11 7215
and closed 121ac under yesterday at
oil rs; July lard between S. 971a and
IS S5G6 S71s, ciosing loo down at
Toe down at Sc sly, and July ribs be-
tween Sc S719@6 80 and 06 S2h@55
with the close sc reduced at IS IS.

DRY GOODS.

NEW YORK, June 9.-There is
slight Improvement in orders for some
lines of prints for fall: otherwise the
cotton goods market is without change
in any direction. The tone is dull and
the general demand readily met. Print
cloths were idle at the close at previous
prices. Cotton yarns are in very unset
tied state, and prices so Irregular as to
be practically unluotable.
Wooden anu wors5ed yarns are also
weaker and irregular.

Shanghai. June 4.-The Shanghai Ga

the ceremonies here Chief Justice Mills
spoke In part as follows:
Address by the Chief Justice.
Chief Justice Mills spoke in part as
follows:
Ladies and Gentlemen-Words fail
to express the feelings which fill my
heart at the honor which has been con-
ferred upon me in being selected to pre-
side over the ceremonies which are TAX
Ing place in your old city on the occa-
sion of the dedication of this beautiful
capitol building. l have always had
deep admiration for the ancient City Of
the Holy Faith, and your kindness to
me to-day makes that love stronger
than ever.
This building is indeed credit, not
only to Santa Fe, but to the whole ter
ritory. 1t Is building of which we
New Mexicans may we'll be proud. Its
erection at a cost not to exceed tre ap-
preparation reflects great credit upon
the commission which had charge of the
work. Building capitol within the ap-
preparation is of such rare occurrence
that a commission which accomplishes
1t deserves to have a monument of en-
during bronze erected to its memory. I
do not believe, however, that this CAPT.
toll commission needs any such memo
rial, for this building is the greatest
monument which could be erected to It.
LAS most of you know, our form of
government is composed of three CO.
ordinate branches-the legislative,
which enacts the laws; the executive,
which sees that the laws are enforced
and carried out; and the judicial, which
passes on the laws enacted by the leg
islature, and sees that they are not con-
trary to the constitution, and that they
are so administered as not to wrong or
oppress even the most humble citizen.
Under this roof each of these branches
Of the government will have an abld-
ing place.
"As looked upon this beautiful
building and noted its massive walls,
built apparently to last as long as the
eternal hills upon which imperial Rome
was founded; as saw the stately steps
leading to its main entrance, and gazed
upon its pillars. cornices and aches,
all blending into one symmetrical
whole. I could not but wonder what
those brave conqulstadores, gentlemen
of Spain, who 30 many years age
marched through the deserts of this

Dedication Of the New Capitol.
A Memorable and Interesting Event.
A Civic and Military Pageant.

The formal dedication yesterday of
New Mexico's new and stately capitol
building proved a most notable event,
marking an epoch In the long and bril-
liant history of the territory that will
never be wiped from memory's tablets
by the happy multitude participating.
The ceremonies opened shortly after the
noon hour and continued throughout
the afternoon and evening until mid
night The committee in charge had
sent out 1000 handsomely engraved In
vitations to prominent people through
out the territory to the governors of all
the states, members Of congress, the
president and his cabinet. The visitors
present probably numbered 1900 in
cluding those frr-2 the srrrounding
country districts. A more conrented
looking. well-attired and orderly crowd
could not have been assembled in any

licitous comments. and some even were
generous enough to admit that the day
they had spent in mingling with such
body of men and women had wiped
out their opposition to our admission
as state. From a meteorological point
Of view the day was perfect and the
night-well,
The night was filled with music,
And the cares that infested the day
Folded their tents like Arabs,
And as silently stole away.
THE STREET PARADE
was formed at 2:3O. For more than an
hour previous the line of march was
packed with sightseers. Marshal Of the
Day George w. Knaebel and his two
score Of aids, well mounted and wearing
blue sashes and white gloves, were
kept busy making up the procession.
The sound Of drums. clanking sabers
and bugles, mingled with the clatter Of
Santa Fe new Mexican. [volume] (Santa Fe, N.M.) 1898-1951, 1900-06-05

Preceding the Santa Fe herd was led
by colored man a sad-eyed goat, deck
ed in a purple covering inscribed, II am
the only goat" with the emphasis on
the "only." The local Elks were decked
out in Mexican straw sombreros, with
purple ribbons, and all wore long brown
linen top coats. This feature created
no end of jollity all along the route Of
the parade, the sight of well-known
and prominent men in such regalia ex-
citing the greatest merriment.
Under John " Conway the chemical
engine company made gay and at
tractive showing in their bright uni
forms as they stepped along ahead Of
the decorated engine. This was mass
of flags and flowers, on top Of which
was a floral throne, where was seated
pretty little Miss Ward, and on the box
was the tiny son Of A. M. Dettlebach
In regulation rough rider dress. Anoth-
er unique feature of the parade was
Governor Otero's little son in full mil
itary attire, occupying carriage with
his orderly, Squire Jackson, the we'll
known tall sycamore" colored man.
Also, Fletcher Catron in full uniform,
astride Of the Gatling gun, provoked
much comment as the squad passed by
in charge of Sergt. Roy J. Crichton.
Division No. 3 was headed by the
United States Indian school brass band,
followed by $50 well-drilled, neatly uni
formed pupils from that institution,
who made fine appearance, as also
did the pupils from st. Michaers col
lege, over 100 of them being in line fully
uniformed in gray and walking like
soldiers. A long string Of citizens in
carriages and on horseback brought up
the rear Of the procession.
AT THE CAPITOL.
Arriving at the capitol grounds the
main body Of the parade halted while
Governor Otero and staff and d.stin-
guished guests took position on the
steps Of the main entrance. As they set
foot on the steps the great nag over the
capitol dome was swung to the breeze
and the governors salute was fired.
During the firing of the salute Colonel
Borrodaile and staff. the Santa Fe band,
Otero guards. company q of Abuquer-
que, Lieutenant Colonel Rankin and
staff, the @. A. R., rough riders. Las
I, Vegas band, troop q. other military Or

the hoofs Of many mounts. The inspec-
tion Of the national guard occasioned
some delay. but presently the clear
tones Of Colonel Knaebels voice went
down the line: Forward, march,"
The military division of the process
sion marched past the historic govern
ment palace at present arms, thus bid
ding it a farewell forever as the seat of
official power and government in New
Mexico. From the postoff1ce corner on
the plaza the parade. led by the mar
shal Of the day, his chief aid. Maj. Fred
erick Muller, and Special Aid H. O.
Bursum, under escort Of the city mar
shall and his assistants, proceeded to
Cathedral street, thence down San
Francisco street to Gaspar avenue. and
via Manhattan avenue and Galisteo
street to the south gate of the capitol
park. The whole route was lined with
evergreens, flags and tri-colored fes-
toons, not only the business houses
generally. but many private residences
having been lavishly decorated for the
occasion.
Following the head Of the column
came the first cavalry brass band OF
Santa Fe, playing national airs, under
the leadership of Professor Perez. Then
came the military division. The first
battalion consisted Of the Santa Fe
band, company I, New Mexico national
guard, Of Las Vegas. Capt. W. G. Reed;
company 9 Of Albuquerque, Capt. L. H.
Chamberlain. and Lieut.. Col. r. G. Ran

under the leadership of Prof. John
Stewart; companies A and B, Of Mesilla
valley. consolidated, Captain Tyson;
company H of Santa Fe, Capt. Jaspar
F. Ortiz; Gatling gun squad Of Santa
Te Lieut.. VIM. H. Pope; cavalry troop
e, Capt. w. H. Grimm, Maj. Eugene
Van Patten, Of Las Cruces, being in
command Of this battalion. and Col.
John Borradaile commanding the entire
provisional brigade. The Santa Fe band
and company (Otero guards) and
troop e. acted as guard of honor to the
governor.
Az the soldier boys passed along they
were greeted with much enthusiasm by
the onlookers that lined either side oi
the route Of the procession. Six small
boys wearing blue sashes preceded thu
