New York. Sept. 5.-The ease with

WHEAT CROPS ARE
BEING HARVESTED
REPORTS THAT YIELD Is GOOD
ONE, CAUSES DEPRESSION
IN PRICES.

Chicago, Sept 5.--Rapid progress Of
threshing in the northwest carried
wheat prices down today. Advices were
at hand that the scattered showers in
the spring crop region had done no
damage. The cables failed to afford
much comfort to the bulls and showed
but little response to the advance on
this side. The opening was h9A to
Nc of. There was slight rally but tho
market then sank lower than before.
Absence Of export demand depressed
the market still further. The close was
nervous at a net decline Of NON to
1c.
Intense heat still prevailing over a
large part Of the belt gave some firm
ness to corn. Buying demand was only
moderate. however, and quotations
gradually eased off under last nights
level. Cables were lower owing to un-
expected heavy Argentina shipments.
Eagerness Of cash buying led after
wards to a recovery but prices did not
hold. The close was steady V to h@1c
under last night.
Oats weakened under commission
ceiling on resting orders. One Of the
large cash houses was also prominent
on the bear side.
Provisions rose in sympathy with an
advance at tho yards Offerings were
fair on the advance but did not seem
to make much impression. D., D..

THROUGH TRAFFIC
STOPPED BY DAM
MISSISSIPPI STEAMER COMPANIES
.# COMPLAIN ABOUT NEW
kEOkUk PLANT.

Davenport. Sept. b.-Steamboat men
have given up attempts to maintain
through trathc between st. Louis and
st. Paul this year, claiming that the
water power company at Keokuk is
tying up 90 much water in Its dam that
It is impossible for the big boats to
navigate at night time. The fall trips
have been cancelled.
The power company claims the right
to withhold the water at night and as
a result steamboat men claim they are
delayed many hours below the dam
and are unable to make scheduled
time. The steamer Quincy recently
went hard aground on rocks near the
opening of the canal and could be
floated only when enough water had
been released from above the dam to
raise the stage eighteen inches.
The steamboat men are threatening
court action

These ultras wore no stockings and
their gowns displayed an interesting
curve of bare and powdered leg!
Others determined upon surpassin.s
