CHICAGO, June 30.-Rains in North Dakota,
weakness in the stock market the Kansas re-
port which exploded the early theory OF the
extremists and much pressure OF long wheat
has combined to make the market weak all
day Declines in the northwest were little
more extreme than here. Government official
reports showed heavy rain in eastern and CEN
tral North Dakota, and enough rain west and
north of II to indicate a fairly good wetting
down. Forecast is for partly cloudy, showery
and cooler in much of the northwestern area
tonight and tomorrow. Advices from the har-
vesters and threshers in the winter wheat
belt show fine results. Even Missouri, eaten
by Hessian fly, and much of its wheat acre
age plowed under, has shown number one
red grade for its initial car sent TO St Louis
weight being 81 pounds. Oklahoma is taxing
wheat of magnificent quality.
Corn has made much better showing rela-
lively than any other grain on the floor. spec
ulators have shown a remarkable change OF
front on corn on many instances recetly' and
there has been a very good scattered commits
sion demand besides.
Oats have finally shown material weakness
under a fairly liberal volume of speculation.
Miscellaneous longs have unloaded and some
Of the large sellers of wheat also dumped.
Provisions were higher early, but trade was
light and there has been gradual sagging off
since. More or less cleaning up of July specu-
lative trades today. Nothing large in the
trade. The weeks packing at western centers
was 30, 900 hogs more than year ago.

Vidduct Plnn Goes
 To Four COnmittees

The first school census for Greater Birmingham was completed last Satur- day, and the figures compiled by the enun1erators were submitted to the board of education yesterday afternoon. They show that Birmingham has 39,549 chill dren between the ages of and 21. Figured on a basis of four to every child, the population of Birmingham should be 15S,19e, which tallies closely with the figures on the basis of 5S,00O names in the city directory, which was compiled during the latter part of 1909 Figuring the school census on a S1a basis
 1t would indicate a population of 137, ,42i.
 A surprising feature Is the fact that there are only 100 more white children than negroes, which shows the enormous negro population of the greater city The Sixteenth ward, or Ensley, has one sixth of the total number of children, while the Twelfth ward Woodlawn and East Lake, has the next highest figure, 4CG9
 The report shows that the suburbs out side of the old Birmingham lines have 22,sS1, while the nine wards which com posed the old Birmingham have 16,66s.
 Dr. J. H. Phillips expects to have at least 10000 children enrolled in the Birmingham schools during the first month of school.

Practically Entire Council Will Thresh Out Subject
 Next Thursday Night
ALL WILL OPPOSE II
 IN ITS PRESENT FORM
Conference Some Satisfactory Agreement Will Be Reached.
 What Aldermen Say

| The viaduct proposition of tho railroads, which has caused so much discussion in
 Birmingham for the past week, followed the usual course of such matters last night, and was referred by the city coun- cil to the finance, judiciary, street and railroad committees, which practically
 means the committee of the whole, as ev. cry member of the council is on one of these four committees. The committee is called to meet next Thursday night to | thresh out the viaduct question. 1 There Is a general sentiment among the aldermen against the proposition as sub mitted by the railroads. As Walter Moore said: T certainly will not vote for the | proposition as they have submitted It." So many of the other aldermen express them- selves, and Walter Metcalf of the Ninth ward said last night, q consider it no more than permit from the railroads to the city to build viaducts over their tracks,
 However, the aldermen all express hope that out of conference something satis- factory may be evolved. T believe the railroads are sincere" said John Cope iuhNt anu We llluSl SO lIltO tfit DOttOLl of the thing with them. I think it is only necessary to thoroughly thrash it out and come to an agreement.
 "Of course" said Alderman Heidt I've have to deal with the best talent the rail- roads can obtain. It is cold business proposition, and the railroads want to set a precedent for all the other viaducts which they must build in the future. They want to get the best terms and are not looking after the city's interests
 q think" said Alderman Moore, that the railroads are as much concerned in this matter as the city is. It Is now up to them as a business proposition. They realize that the cost of damages and property improvements is of vast impor- tance.p
 And" said Alderman M. J. Gregg, this is question for cool deliberation with the interests of all concerned weighed in the balance I believe we can come to an agreement with the railroads which will read entirely different from this proposition, but, If we cannot mako trade with them in which the city's rights are guarded the law can be called in. Under the law we may arrest them for failure to build the viaduct when 1t is ordered by the council, and we may go ahead and build the viaduct and assess the costs on the railroad, exactly as Is done in making street Improvements. That the time has come for viaducts seems to be the opinion of the council, and they do not believe, the railroads can keep them away. The contract for paw ing and improving First avenue, across the grade crossings, has been held up, with many others running through rail- road property, awaiting the proposition of the railroads to build viaduct. It was to prevent these improvement assessments that the railroads asked for 30 days in which to make proposition.
 "If we can't get them by agreement, then we'll fight" seems to be the senti- ment,
