GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.
CHICAGO.

CHICAGO. June 2O.-Complaints of too
much rain in the spring crop belt tended
today to make wheat prices firm. 1t was
said that excessive moisture had already
done considerable damage, that down.
pours were in progress throughout the
Dakotas and Minnesota. and that predic-
tons were. for additional storms. The
opening. which was " of to shade ad-
vance. was followed by a moderate rise
all around.
Corn ascended in consequence Of Dit Of
fertngs being scarce. There were reports
that the Tennessee crop was virtually a
failure, and that Argentine grading would
continue bad. After starting shade
lower to 70 up. the market scored a gem
eral advance.
Oats hardened with other grain. Trade,
however, lacked volume.
Higher prices for hogs gave provisions
an upward slant. On the bulge, though,
selling was noticeably enlarged.
The wheat market later took a down.
shoot because Of increased acceptance
on bids from here for wheat to arrive.
The close was weak. V to AaN net
lower.
Subsequently the corn market climbed
further owing to bullish estimates Of re-
serves. but the effect failed to last Clos
ing prices were steady, at AaB to Is
above last night.

DYER LOSES HOUSE SEAT
TO GILL, A DEMOCRAT

The National Guard Of the District of
Columbia has lost from the present Con-
gress one OF Its strongest friends in Rep
resentative l. c. Dyer Of st. Louis, No.
who relinquished his seat in the House
late yesterday afternoon when that body
seated Michael J. Gill after two days
debate. by q vote Of 147 to 90. Repre-
sentative Dyer. formerly a member Of the
District OF Columbia Volunteer Regiment
in the Spanish-American war, was the
author Of the bill for the establishment
Of a modern armory. and has worked
faithfully for several years. before the
committee on public buildings and grounds.
for a favorable report on his measure.
The bill has not been reported, but there
has been every hope that 1t would be en-
acted before the next Congress.
Blame Political Prejudice.
Republicans In the House and several
democrats believe that Dyer was I'M
seated owing to purely political preju-
dice. In fact, Representative Goldfogle
Of New York. chairman OF the elections
committee. which sifted the evidence,
asked for further time to dig into the
mass Of technicalities arising out Of ir-
regularities In certain st. Louis ballot
ing places. This was voted down. The
House also took the view that Repre-
sentative Dyer was not responsible for
the Irregularities, and it was fairly well
shown that the trouble arose because OF
ward political differences between vari-
Gus small leaders in st. Louis.
Representative Mann. republican hoor
leader, pleaded with the House to be fair
| and not allow politics to sway the vote.
| He said that republicans had at one time
been prejudiced in election contests. but
that they had made record in later
Representative Rucker of Missouri. DEM
ocrat, was particularly bitter against
Representative Dyer's claims. He made
| the assertion that there had not been an
\ honest election in the precincts involved
4 for over q dozen years.
| Mr.. Gill remained on the floor of the
House all day yesterday. and was
sworn in by the Speaker Just before
privilege Of the floor. as is customary
in contest cases, and made a five
minute speech. in which he said, in re-
Spouse to certain accusations against
his side of the case:
| "I say this to you. paraphrasing the
| language Of Robert Emmett when he ap.
pealed to his Judges. If the souls OF
the faithful departed have anything In
common with those in this transitory
life. then ask you. my beloved mother
who has long since gone to the world
| beyond, to appeal to Almighty God t.
look down in my heart and there. II
there ever was a thought in my mind
that deviated from the principles OF
| democracy or ever supported repub.
Iican for Office, l hope 1t will exhibit,
| itself here on my face, SO that you men
on the democratic side will not be de-
| ceived."
Later Representative Cooper of Wis
consin made reference to this appeal:
There is testimony given in the case
which Mr. Gill has never denied" Id
said TT is true in his speech today
he did call upon Robert Emmett and the
Lord. neither. of whom, however, was q
Witness In this case"

Spectators Mark Time.

Spectators in stocks marked time this
week. Trading was dull and movements
Of prices were small. Although the mar
ket showed symptoms Of heaviness at
times, the undertone in the main was
good. Hesitancy was due largely to the
expectation Of an early decision in the
freight rates case. peDding which oper-
ators feared to make heavy commit
ments.
The abnormally heavy fiow Of gold to
Europe continued, the movement reaching
such proportions that its influence began
to show itself more distinctly in the stock
market. Demand sterling broke sharply
from the recent high level, falling 100
points in three. days. but expectation Of
gold continued.
The political outlook abroad improved
and the cheerful tone OF foreign markets
was reflected in buying here for Euro
pean account At home the news was va
ried. OF chief interest was the crop re-
ports. which were of the best, Business
conditions were still unsatisfactory. Presi-
dent Wilson's insistence on comprehen-
sive trust legislation at this session Of
Congress was expected by the street
Mexican affairs weighed on the market
occasionally. but the general inclination
was to await definite Indications of the
outcome Of mediation proceedings.
