The delicious flavor which all travel

that country is got, it is said, by the
addition of little butter and sugar

three pounds of roasting berries a ia

x7bicago Grain and Provisions

Chicago, June 2S-Wet weather again caused fair upturns in grain today but the absence of any liberal outside busl- ness and clearing up trades over sunday restricted grains to some extent. Septem- Der wheat closed a quarter cent hlgher; July corn 1 cent higher; September corn S-Sd1-2c up; July oats 1q1 Is cent high CT and September oats 3-SUl-2c higher. Provisions closed unchanged to l-2c higher.
 September wheat opened l-4 to 3-Sc MGh- CT at 72 3-S to r 1-2 and sold to 72 5-S earlN. Throughout the Southwest copious rams had fallen again to damage the harvest: Paris quotations were as much as i-4 higher influenced by unfaVorable weath- CT. There was a light early commission house business and a fair export demand developed. The feature of the day was an improvement in the call for December options A bearish sentiment overcast the pit. however, for some time anu Worh- ed against higher prices. Reports came that most of the wheat had been cut III the country where rains were laIhls. Many of the local crowd LOOK proi.S rather than to wait over sunday anu stand the possibilities of fair weather The little strength was sapped ana Sep- temher dipped to z IA, closing only hflh l-t cent up at 72 3-S Local receipts were 80 cars. of contract gradie; Mlnneap- olis and Duluth reported sos cars, Ihdk ing a, total for tho three points or o4I ears against S9S last week and 34' year dSo' Primary receipts were 460,OOO Dusheis' compared to 55l,000 bushels last year.

Special to The Advertiser1
 New Orleans, June 2.-The official con- fir1nation of general rains throughout Texas by the Weather Bureau caused our market to open 1 to 3 points higher but El1ortsscoyering. over Sunday subsequent- ly superinduced an improvement of four to six points. When this demand was filed values again eased off, making the net gain about 1 point on the day. There are thirty-four towns in Texas which re- port to the Government and ten out of That number on the Eth instant had suf- 1icient rains to make an average rainfall tor the State of .64 of an inch. On the 2Sth instant fifteen towns out of the fhirty-four had an average rainfall of 150 inches or in other words an ag eregate for the State of 2.14 inches for Hhe two days, indicating that copious rains have taken place generally over Texas breaking the drought, which has existed there for some weeks. When the 4wenty-four additional towns missing on khe 27th instant and the nineteen towns missing on the 18th instant make their reports it will make the average rainfall very mulch in excess of the PA inches now reported by less than half the towns which go to make up the complete re- turns, therefore 1t can be seen at glance that the rains in Texas have been of immense benefit to the plant, removing fear of deterioration. It will now de- Dend on future weather conditions as to what the probable outturn will be. For 4he present the outlook throughout the whole belt is certainly unusually favor able.

Local Cotton Market.
R. M. Scale & Co.'S Cotton Letter.


 7 Few Orleans, June 2S.-The cotton mar kef today was characterized by the usual Saturday covering, in which shorts took Hhe most prominent part. All the news an hand appeared to have been arranged especially for the benefit of bears. Week. ay mercantile reviews furnished no en- cnuragemenk concerning the trade out look in manufactured goods and the rain fali reported by the Government showed Conclusively that the drought in Texas had been practically broken. the precipi- Eafions having been quite liberal. ex- Bending into Arkansas and Louisiana. With all this advantage. however. sell nrs were timid. being more inclined to realize profits than increase commit ments. Liverpool is expected to be af- fected quite seriously by the rain news, but the English market has acted so contrary of late that none are. disposed to feel positive in that direction. The days transactions resulted in an advance of about one point over yesterday. Now that Texas; has apparently received all the moisture desired and bright prospects for the crop are again established 1t is very likely that opposition to any sub stantial Improvement in prices will grow more pronounced. The Monthly Bureau fo be published on the Sd inst. Is not ex- pected to shed much additional light on the subjects of the crop and is not likely therefore to exert great influence on the market. The spot situation and trade condition will doubtless be eagerly watched henceforth as the support of prices wdll depend largely on the stabili- Sy of these features.

Seaboard clearances in wheat and flour equalled 76i ,00O bushels.
 Corn still showed marked strength on the demand by shorts. Wet weather was reported generally in the corn belt, but whereas it helped Texas. it hurt the crops elsewhere. Advices from many sections state that the main root of the plant was routed of. At the opening, prices were very strong. Shorts bid July 5-S to l Is cents higher at 69 1-2 to 70. the lat ter the new record price for the crop. Offerings for profits at top figures at once brought slump to @ Is. but the constant bad reports from crops, especial ly from Iowa, pushed prices up again. Receipts were a little larger at 233 cars, but little attention was paid to statistics. The weather and tho short bidding ruled the market. September and December ad- vanced with July, but free profit taking In these two options brought partial de- clines. July closed strong 1 cent up at @ 7-S September sold at 6l IS and closed firm 3-S@1-2 higher at 61 1-2.
 Oats continued their upward course to- day The wet weather was reported as hurting this cereal worst of all. Cash No. white sold as high as 54 cents and there was almost nothing offered for sale in spite of the good demand. The same good buying that has been in force for a week was in evidence again. The gener- al sentiment in the pit was decidedly bull lish Shorts covered freely at the start and July reached the top figure of the option again-41. Dips followed the liquidation which, however, was small, but all the stuff was taken and July after selling at 46 closed strong 1@1 Is up at 46 5-S. Sep tember sold between 8 1-2 and 34 and closed firm at 3-S@1-2c up at 8 5-SG B 3-4 Receipts were 209 cars.
 Provisions were very dull. Offerings were scarce, but there was little dispo- sition on tho part of packers to shove prices up Hogs were light and prices good including small advances wHNh, however were not all held Septe a 1T pork closed unchanged at 1S.f7 1-2; Sep tember lard ? 1-2c higher at 10:57 1-2 and September ribs unchanged at 1060.
 Estimated receipts for tomorrow: Wheat 35: corn 300: oats 245 hogs 3i000.
