GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.

Chicago, June 4.-Wheat prices in the
local market broke cents per bushel
today because of general liquidation, due
to favorable weather for the crop in Eu-
rope and America The September deliv-
cry was down nc, while the July option
showed a net loss of 112Q15sc. July cora
was up %G12c. Cats We're off 1s6l14c. Pro-
visions we're 212c TO 71zc higher.
The feature Of trading in the wheat pit
was the unloading of large lines held by
several leading bulls, their total sales for
the day being estimated at between 3,O0O,-
coo bushels and 100000 bushels. These
longs had apparently become discour-
aged by the continued favorable weather
and decided to throw overheard their lines
of wheat. Selling from this source was
in evidence when trading began, and the
initial quotations showed losses ranging
from 2sQ1zc to 1@11sc, compared with the
closing price of yesterday. Commission
houses were loaded up with stop loss or
derS many of which were reached on the
opening decline The execution of these
orders sent prices down still further. In
addition to the weather conditions a break
of more than Id in Liverpool depressed
the market here. The weakness of the
English market was caused by better
crop conditions in eastern Europe. Dur
ing the last hour prices rallied 1c from
the low point of the day. The close was
fairly steady. July opened 3sq12c to ga
&c lower at $3.50 to 96s4c. sold off to 94Ac
5sd%c to 1G11sc lower at 9S2sc to 9S&4c,
declined to 961ac and closed at 977sd9Sc.
The slump in wheat weakened the corn
market early IN the day, but later it de-
veloped strength the buying of lead
| ing bulls. The market closed strong. July
| opened shade to 1sdAc lower at 5324c to
| $3.50. sold off to 531zc and closed at 543sc.
| Local receipts were 963 cars.
| Better weather and wheat weakness in
| f1uenced the oats market. July opened
| &c to &c lower at 49c to SIC, sold be-
tween 49c and 1880 and closed at 1850
| Sic.
| Provisions were weaker at the opening
| because of the weakness of the grains. but
rallied later on moderate buying by 10
| cal packers. At the close July pork was
up TIC at s16-271z, Lard was up 21zc at

TRACKS WASHED AWAY
IN DEVIsADER0 Street
Broken Sewer Underrnines
Roadbed and Stops
Car Traffic

The worst break on its tracks that
the United Railroads has had TO contend
with in some time was that caused
early YESTERDAY morning through the
overlooking OF sewer ia Devisadero
street, at its intersection with Grove
street. The sewer has been unable to
carry off the storm waters ever since
the re0nt rains set IN. and the con-
stant now Of water finally undermined
the tracks at the point named for a
distance Of more than fifty feet.
The Board Of Works was notified OF
the break in the sewer and a gang
Of men were sent to repair it. The
United Railroads put on a large force
Of laborers TO raise the tracks and
prop them up.
The washout put stop 20 the run
ming OF the DevisaderO-street cars for
several hours. during which time they
were operated along Fillmore street
Al noon the tracks were sufficiently
bolstered up to permit Of the passing
OF empty cars. The passengers were
dumped out on one SIDE OF the break
and after the cars had safely passed
over the dangerous part the passengers
were taken aboard again,an continued
on their journey
Later in the afternoon the tracks
We're strengthened so that 1t was pos
sible for loaded cars TO pass safely
over them, and traffic was resumed
