There is only one great issue. be-

and that is the quest ion whether

this state. Men may differ with
equal sincerity and patriotism upon
partisan questions. such as the tariff
ana the currency. but the question of
Law and order is fundamental and
upon that question there can be no
eompromlse. Either we have gov

We have no government at all.

MARKET SWINGS
 ID THE BEAR SIDE
Government Report to Show Higher Condition May 1
 for Winter Crop

Chicago, April 29.-Predictions that the government report would show higher condition May for the winter crop than on April 1. swung the wheat market to- day completely around to the bear side. There was nervous close at 1aQssc to &@7sc net decline. Corn finished unset tied. 1ac off to isc up, oats down 1tc to 5aQssc. and provisions showing a loss of 7izal0c to s5c.
 Bearish sentiment as to wheat did not develop until after cold weather bulge in prices al the outset. Heavy snow and freezing temperature in parts of the northwest, both side of the Canadian line. gave rise to fear that seeding where al- ready late. would have to be further post poned. Higher cables also gave temporary help to the bulls. As soon, however, as word began to get around that one of the leading crop experts had gone on record with forecast indicating improved con dition percentages for winter wheat. es- pecially in western Kansas and Nebras- ka and Oklahoma, spectators turned sell CTS more aggressively than at any pre- viou stime this week.
 Prospects of larger receipts of wheat here for delivery on May contracts in- dueed considerable unloading by holders. The arrival of a cargo of 250,Oo0 bushels of No. 1 hard spring from Duluth at tracted considerable notice in this con- nection.
 Despite temporary strength due to re- ports that Argentine storm damage meant losses amounting to more than s0.0oo,0 900 bushels, the corn market grad ually became weak. Cash demand here was slow and the outlook for domestic planting was good. The most active sell ing was by May longs, number of whom, however, reinstated by purchas sing July.
 Oats all day were under pressure from leading elevator interest Wet weather was regarded as favorable for the new crop.
 Provisions suffered from the depression in the markets for grain and hogs. In doubtedly. too, prices felt the effect of peace talk.

NEW CROP POSITIONS
 MAKE HIGH RECORDS
Irregular Fluctuations in Old Crop Months-Scarcity of
 Seed in Southwest

New York, April 29.--The action of today's cotton market, as we'll as the talk around the ring suggested con tinued uncertainty as to the merits of the old crop situation so far as local contracts were concerned and con tinued nervousness as to the outlook for the new crop. owing to further reports of a late start and apprehen- sions of renewed rains in the western belt before the end of the week
 New crop positions made new high records for the movement, while fluc- tuations in the old crop months were irregular with the market closing steady at a net decline of 16 points on April and l to 1 points on other old crop positions, while later delv- cries were to points higher
 The market opened steady at a de- cline of points to an advance of 3 points. There appeared to be quite d good deal of selling for all crop de- livery against purchases of the new crop positions and fluctuations were more or less irregular right after the call.

 Influences Varied
