The boxers around Corona run up
against a snag when they tried to
bluff the republican candidate for
governor on the occasion of his speech
in that town last week Thursday
night. When MIR. Elrod arrived in
town he was met by a committee OF
Boxers who cal My informed him that
if he touched on local politics in his
address a large portion of his audience
would leave him in a body. In opening
his address Mr.. Elrod said that he
landed in South Dakota at the spot
where Clark now stands June 30. 1857:
that four days after they had a Fourth
ofJuly celebration and he delivered the
speech: that he had spoken at repub-
lean rallies where there were not
more than two republicans present
and never yet has his audience or
any part of it left the hall when he
was speaking: that it had been init
mated that if he touched or local
| politics in his speech that evening
a good share of his audience would
leave him: that he intended to touch
! on local politics and if any n want
ed to leave he was privileged to do SO
at any time. Mr.. Elrod then proceed
ed with his speech, devotlng consld-
cradle time to county politics and not
a man left the hall during the entire

WEEKLY MARKET REVIEW.

There was fair activity in cotton
during the past week. The bureau re-
port on Tuesday was perhaps a shade
better than generally expected, the
condition being given as SO. AS a
result, prices went lower momentari-
ly; but as reports were received of
excessive rains in some important Sec
tions, and also of a threatened squeeze
in Liverpool, shorts ran in to cover,
carrying prices up about so points on
old crop and 40 to so points on new
crop deliveries. At the end of the
week the market turned downward
again, and large part of the gain
was lost. Closing prices are some 30
points net higher for summer months,
but for new crop months are about
the same as a week ago.
The rather severe squeeze given the
shorts during the middle of the week
fully justified the caution given here
of late concerning the danger of too
reckless selling thus early in the sea-
son, after such an enormous decline
in the market. Moreover, the squirt
came without any material change fol-
the worse in crop advices. 1t goes ia
show forcibly What can and will hap
pen, when the regular annual com
plants begin TO come in. 1t is best
to wait for good bulgers to sell new
crop deliveries on, and the old croL
months are exceedingly dangerous to
sell, short at all at the current small
premiums over later deliveries
Wheat was active and strong, main
ly on continued unfavorable weather
rain and floods materially interfering
with the harvesting of winter wheat
and the growth of spring wheat
Prices rose 4 to cents, but fell back
little at the end of the week on pro-
mise of clearing weather. Upon the
whole, the position of wheat seems
strong, with a promise of much high
er prices ultimately. Besides the
prolongation of the war, the bulIisl
influences are the small stocks and
farm reserves in this country, disap.
pointing crops in Europe, and only q
fair prospect for the American crop
The bureau report due Monday aft.
ernoon should be rather bullish thar
bearish, and on any further reaction
the market seems to be a reasonable
safe purchase.
After some show of strength early
in the week, provisions took a moder.
ate set back on realizing sales, and
a slight increase in the hog receipts
There was also some increase in the
Chicago stocks. However, hog receipts
were by no means heavy. and reports
are persistent that the animals are
| scarce in the shipping districts. The
position does not appear to have lost
any of its intrinsic strength, and these
reactions offer favorable opportunity
for buying.
