REPORTS OF RAIN

THE MARKET.
Early Tone Bullish, but Late Ad
vices Result in Heavy
Realizing.

Local grain markets opened well Satur-
day, but Geclined at the close. 1t wa. (,
weather market throughout. Early In the
session there was q flood of damage reports
from many sections in the winter belt. This
prompted many smaller traders to buy. de-
spite the hazard of carrying long lines over
Sunday. Near the close advices from Kan
sas and Oklahoma indicated that heavy
rains had fallen in those States. This
caused a rush to sell and heavy liquidation
carried all prices downward.
July wheat ranged from 74asc to 75asc and
closed ls0%c of at 74Irc.
Trading in corn was very light. Receipts
were larger than on the corresponding Gay
last year. and there was little cash or eX-
port demand.
July corn ranged between 62J4c and 63e.

HEAVY RAIN IN SOUTHWEST
Will Be of Enormous Benefit to
Growing Crops.
REPUBLIC SPECIAL.

Dallas. Tex. May A steady. soaking
rain has been falling over Northern and
Central Texas and Oklahoma since O. clock
this afternoon. and promises to continue
through the night
1t can justly be called a crop-saver so far
as wheat and oats are concerned. The hot
winds from the South of the last ten days
had badly parched these crops, but to-day's
storm will do millions of dollars worth of
good. Corn, which has 50 far done fairly
well, will be put in excellent condition.

COTTON MARKETS.

NEW YORK. March 1o.-The cotton market
onened easier with prices off 912 points under
selling for both accounts. During the first half
hour the market continued to show irresularltE,
owing to weakness in the Liverpool market
and to scarcity Of new buying orders. But Of
fernEs were soon exhausted, aud rs liverpool
rallied quite sharply there was u marked i'm
prorerlent in the market generally by II O'Clock
lhel, came small estimates for Interior re-
CENTS predictions for very large export move
ment talk of well sustained prices in southern herr,
market accounts. BY midday prices were
tribe over the final bids of Saturday, with SEN
timent once more quite buliish. Strike" talk
from Fall River disturbing influence, but
was Offset By significant strength in New g.
leans. Wire houses and Wall Street buying
sent May to $50 and July to $50 soon after
the noon hour, but the official estimate for to-
morrows New Orleans receipts proved far larger
than expected, and sharp relapse followed.
Just when the market in fair form to re-
gain this decline, news. of British reverses in
South Africa reached the ring and heavy gen
cral selling at set in, continuing through
out the rest of session. New low prices for the
day were reached on the late break with the
market barely steady and net 541 points lower

THE ETRURIA SAFE,
Compara!vel. Uneysn!fui Voyage After Her

Mishap.
(By Associated Prcss.)
IORTA, AZORES, March 10.-The Gu
nard Line steamer Etruria anchored here
ut o'clock yesterday Sunday evening.
All on board are well.
She lad II comparatively uneventful
passage, except for the breakdown which
occurred during the dinner hour of Feb
ruary IS. When this occurred the Ell
ruria had only just finished speaking by
wireless biography with the Cunard
Line steamship Umbria.
The Etrura sent tip rockets. which
were seen by the British steamer VIII
liam Cliff. The latter bore down and
was alongside i'll fifty minutes after the
accident. She stood by until daylight,
when, after several attempts, she sue
ceeded in passing a hawser aboard the
Etruria.
After the accident the passage of the
CnnArd steamer was entirely uneventfuI,
ard there occurred nothing of interest
beyond the daily runs of the vessel
which ranged from SO to 100 knots. and
the resumption of the usual pleasures
upon the steamers decks.
The Etruria will wait here for the ar
rival of the royal mail steamer E1be,
which left Southampton for> Horta Sat
urday. The IcIbe will carry the Etru-
ria's passengers to England. The Etru-
ria will then be towed home by the
two tugs which are now on their way
out from Liverpool for this purpose.
