CHICAGO, July 13.-Wheat-The
market Is about az cents lower than
Saturdays. 1t Is to some extent a
natural reaction after four days Of
advancing prices. July wheat Is at a
discount. It Is still a broad and act

ty-second street bridge by the rising
water, and thirty-two of the barges
were sunk in the Monongahela river.
Many of the bhrges were wrecked
while going over the dam, but large
number were sunk by coming in con-
tact with the Panhandle, Smithtield
street and Point ridges. Several lie
in the regular channel Of the river,
making 1t dangerous for all vessels,
and 1t is thought blasting will have to
be resorted to in order to clear the riv.
or bed.
The disaster is ons of the worst Of
its kind ever known in this harbor and
involves a money loss of nearly s75,'
900, with little salvage. over 800, 00(
bushels of coal was lost.
