CHICAGO. April s.-There was decidedly bullish sentiment in the wheat pit today and the close showed a gain of 1kc for May. Corn was up hc. but oats were hc flower. Provisions to 200 higher.
 Armour was the feature in the wheat market and 1t was estimated that anywhere from 2Oo0, 900 to 100000 bushels were taken by that concern during the day. Opening prices were being due largely to the confirmation of the reports of damage to the Russian crop and May was h9Mc higher at 74h to 74A. After selling at 74c. there was gradual advance throughout the day under the influence of the heavy buy ing by the leading longs together with a good export demand for wheat and four A change from decrease of nearly two millions to an in- crease of 900 bushels had litle effect on the market as did liquidation by longs. but the reactions were only temporary, the market at no time showing weakness, near the close May sold up to 76h and final figures wehe 1&c Vance of M as aStes s.n1 M.n bsfvssn an sS 70A and 71S. C1earances of wheat and flour were equal to 41,00o bushels. Primary receipts were 666,000 bushels against PA 900 bushels a year ago. Minneapolis and Duluth reported re- ceipts of 162 cars. which with local receipts of 3I cars, none of contract grade, made total receipts for the three points of 199 cars against 210 last week and s1 cars a year ago.
 There was Q moderate trade in corn and the market was firm, influenced mainly by the strength in wheat and by the opening up of Lake traffic. Believing that the lifting of the embargo on shipments by water would have the effect of stimulating a cash demand from the East and consequently result in a reduc- tion in local stocks. shorts became uneasy and covered freely early in the session. The selling was largely by provision interests. Closing prices were strong with May ihc higher at 43A, after selling between 42x and 43h@43hc. Local receipts were 26 cars with none of contract grade.
 Oats were dull in spite of the better tone in the cash market and although the early senti- ment was firm on the strength in wheat, the market later became easier under general com mission house selling. Favorable weather was also a depressing influence. After ranging be- tween a3 and 33M May closed h lower at 33h Local receipts were 169 cars.
 Trading in provisions was dull and the mar ket lacked any features. An advance of 5c in the price of hogs was early bull factor and the strength in wheat and corn a help later in the day. The close was strong with May pork 200 higher at 17.S0, May lard was up 2Ac at 9,S5 and ribs were unchanged at 97o.
 Estimated receipts for tomorrow Wheat, 50 cars; corn 1s0 cars; oats 210 cars; hogs. 25, 900 head

 NEW ORLEANS April 6.-Lverpool advices were disappointing. consequently our market opened 3Q5 points lower and declined 3l5 additional subsequently longs realizing. Shortly after this fresh buying wave set in. causing an advance of iomi points from the bottom on old crop months and 699 on new. When the demand subsded values again eased on SOY points from the top, owing to the fa- vorable weather prevalent throughout the belt and the free movement making the net loss 4Q5 points on the day. Outside speculation is lacking in trading is confined principally to professional operators. While prices are locally continued steady, there is a restricted demand. but holders confident of higher prices ultimately. The fear of manipulation in old crop months has reduced business materi- ally and 1t looks as if some new feature must develop in the situation before activity will again reign. Liverpool has quieted down since the stock there has been increased by the re- cent liberal exports from America and trade advices from Manchester of pessimistic tenor. France and the continent have prac- tically taken their complement of cotton for the season; therefore the English spinners will have competition from that source re- moved in securing the remainder of their re- quirements. Supply and demand will eventu- ally regulate old values of old crop positions Whereas the new will be influenced by weather conditions

EXPLAINS VOTE

II wanted to explain to the Legisla-
ture yesterday why had changed my
vote on the County bill in the House."
said Representative Greenwell, of Ko-
ma, yesterday. THE reason are simple
enough. / am not opposed to the Coun-
ty bill, as such. I voted as / did in
justice to my people.
I'm the bill as 1t came down from
the Senate the island of Hawaii was
divided into the two counties of East
Hawaii and West Hawaii. In the coun-
ty of West Hawaii. originally, We're in
cluded the districts of North Kohala,
South Kohala, North and South Kona,
and Kau. The district of Hamakua
vas included in the county of East
Hawaii. The House committee has
changed this, putting the district of
Hamakua in West Hawaii, instead of
Kau, and making Waimea the county
seat.
Now, in my opinion, Waimea Is the
most undesirable place possible for a
county seat. The county seat of that
county should have been in Kona."

The man on the stage who does the
trick of escaping from firmly tied ropes,
submits to the bonds with smile. He
knows he can get out Of the ropes that
are being knotted. Put the same man in
the woods and let Indian captors bind
hirn to a tree for torture and he would
struggle to the last against the bonds.
When the stomach is diseased there
are bonds being woven every hour about
the organs dependent on the stomach
heart, lungs, liver, kidneys, etc. The
folly of mankind is to passively submit
to the fastening of these bonds with no
efsrt to escape until the pain they cause
arolses fear.
