Bullish Effect of Decreased Rus
sian Shipment, Offset By Fay-
orable Weather Reports
WEAKNESS IN CORN TODAY
Had Depressing Effect on oats-Pit
Traders Were Moderate Sellers of
Oats and Clear Weather Thruout
the Central West, Was an Influence
Provisions Easier.

Chicago, Dec. 11.-A decreased ship
ment Of wheat from Russia during the
last week, had a bullish effect today on
wheat. Favorable weather for the
movement of the crops in the United
States almost completely offset this in
fluence, and as result the market was
slightly unsteady. Shorts were active
bidders early, but their demands were
soon satisfied. May opened at S9M to
S9A, sold to 1886. and reacted to sSB.
Minneapolis, Duluth and Chicago re-
ceipts were $50 cars.
May declined to SSA @SSA, and then
on the marked decrease in visible sup
ply, rallied, closing A@s higher at
S9A @s9A.
Clear weather turnout the central
west caused a weakness in corn. Pit
traders sold moderately. May opened
at 44N to 44A and sold off to AN.
Receipts were 49S cars.
May closed u lower at 445s.
Oats.
Weakness i'm corn had a depressing
effect on oats May opened at s2h to
1926 @32A, and sold to 321a. Receipts
were ZIG cars.
Provisions.
Provisions were a trifle easier be-
cause Of the decline in live hogs.

Ranch hand, Hit on Head With z. Pole,
Declared Insane Today.

Rane! hand, Hit on Head With :. Pole,
Declared Insane Today.
Edgar A. Mallory, ranch hand, 50
years o. age, was adjudged insane in
Judge Brents' court this afternoon by
Drs. Y. c. Blalock and E. E. Shaw,
and was ordered committed to the asy-
lum at Medical Lake. Mallory attri-
butes his present trouble to a blow he
received on the head last year while
working in the mountains near Sites,
Idaho.
He said he was engaged in telling a
tree when a pole fell and struck him a
violent blow on the head, rendering
him unconscious for several hours. He
admitted that he thought he was 60
ing insane and seemed perfectly will
ing to go to the asylum for treatment.
Mallory has been at st. Mary's hospi-
tai for the past month. His attendant
testified that the man spent much of
his time pacing up and down the cor
ridors, making it a point to step on
the figures in the carpet with mathe-
NAUTICAL precision. The man shows no
violent disposition and a sojourn at
the asylum will result in a cure.

the imperial lips. The fear of poison
has at last also affected the czarina,
who personally superintends the prep
aration of every dish destined for the
little czarowitch and his sisters. The
fact that the cars yacht, with steam
up, lies ready to put to sea at mo-
ment's notice, has for some time been
a subject for speculation and gossip in
the service clubs at Moscow and ST.
Petersburg. The latest rumors are sem
sational enough.
1t is asserted by persons in close
touch with the court that Nicholas has
written a private letter to the king of
Denmark asking whether he and his
family would be welcome at Copenha-
gen were certain circumstances to
arise making it seem advisable for him
to take a holiday in Scandinavia. Dur
ing the past II months, it is added, the
car mas been continually sending
money to his bankers in Paris AMI
London, and it is believed that a sum
of money of at least 100000 rubles
has already been deposited abroad.

HeadIess Man at Throttle.

NEW YORK, Aug. 16.-Death rode
in the locomotive cab of the Fast
Flying Virginian'' on the main line
of the Pennsylvania last night and for
miles the crowded train flashed past
danger signals at nearly 20 miles an
hour with a headless engineer at the
throttle.
Dan Mahoney, the engineer, was kill
ed while leaning from the cab window,
and the fireman, not knowing it, piled
coal on to keep up steam. Suddenly he
noticed red lights streaming by and in
cab:
For Gods sake slow up, Dan, you've
run by two red signals!"
He received no answer, and crawling
into the cab saw the body of the en-
gineer hanging from the edge of the
window. The fireman Immediately took
his place and brought the train to a
standstill just at the entrance to the
network of switches in North Phla-
delphia.
The passengers gave the plucky fire.
man cheer as they left the train west
of Philadelphia. Mahoney's wife was
killed in trolley accident at Newark
a year ago.

RAIN CAUSED SEVERAL THRESH.
ING OUTFITS TO CLOSE DOWN
THIS MORNING.
Farmers View a Prolonged Wet Spell
With Many Mssivings-No Fore.
casts ObtainabIe.

Heavy showers in the foothill dis
tricts today caused several threshing
outfits to shut down until more favor
able weather for harvesting prevails.
Farmers who are now busy harvesting
their years crops are viewing the indi-
cations of a prolonged season Of wet
weather with many misgivings They
declare that if there should happen to
be REPETITION of the wet weather of
1896 harvesting operations would be
seriously hampered and incalculable
loss would occur to farmers who have
been unable to get their crops in the
sack.
Owing to the closing of the Walla
Walla weather Office, the forecast for
the next two days could not be OBJ
tanned. Curb street weather prophets,
who have kept close tab on weather
conditions for the past decade, are of
the opinion that clear weather will
prevail in day or so and that farmers
need not feel uneasy over the out
look. Farmers however, still have a
haZy remembrance Of conditions in
1896, when rain fell for days at a time
right in the middle of harvest, and
thousands of dollars worth of grain
was lost.

is PREPARED FOR FLIGHT.
Russian Monarch Has Large Deposits
in Foreign Banks.

ST. PETERSBURG, Aug. 16.-While
through the land, the czar-by many
held responsible for all his countrys
troubles-remains placidly. ensconced
among his flowers at Peterhof. 1t is
said, however, that Nicholas mental
condition daily becomes worse.
The car of all the Russias still
spends many hours lying fully dressed
on his bed, mis- only exercise being TAX
en- in the garden, when, brooding, and
with bowed head, in company with his
physician, DR.. Hirsch, he walks to and
fro, pausing now and again to slash
viciously with his cane at a marguer-
lite or Canterbury bell. Orders, it is
said, are given, countermanded, then
forgotten, and given again in fash
ion utterly bewildering to all his es-
pionage.
AS soon as he heard of the troubles
at Odessa (Which had at first been rep
resented to him as being Of compare
lively small Importance he summoned
a council of war, over which he himself
attempted to preside. But when sur
rounded by his advisers Nicholas ap-
parently forgot the object for which
he had assembled the council, discuss
ing the weather and other trivialties
with those around MIN until reminded
of his original purpose by one of the
grand dukes. Then the car turned
pale, burst into tears, and retired,
grasping the arm of his faithful physi-
clan.
Despite the presence of an army of
spies and many hundreds of mantraps
with which the grounds of Peterhof are
studded, Nicholas trusts absolutely no
one. The emperor frequently refers to
the terrible fate of his brother of Ser
via," and expresses keen envy of the
life led by King Edward of England
and that of the president of the French
republic.
Would that I had been born a pri-
vate English gentleman" is the re-
mark reputed to be constantly on the
lips of this mild, nerve shattered
youth"

RAIN ON THE FLAT.
Operations Have Not Been
Suspended-Light Showers Today.

EUREKA, Wash, Aug. 16.-Light
showers fell over this section of the
country this morning, although the
fall was not heavy enough to cause a
suspension of harvest. Any lengthy
wet spell would cause considera BILE

gagged in caring for their wheat crops.
1t is estimated that about SO per cent
of the entire crop on Eureka fiat is
in the sack. Another two weeks will
see the bulk of the wheat crop har-
vested.
