Wheat Closed 3 1-2C Off to-
LAC Upi Corn and Oats Off,
Pork, Lard, Sides Steady

CHICAGO, April 3O-Sharp upturns today in
wheat here reflected opinions OF many traders
that the bearish effect of suppressing grain
speculation in Canada would be only transient
here. 1t was not long, however, before more
sober views began to count, and the fresh adj
vances virtually wiped out. UnfavOrable
weather conditions in the spring crop region
had only q temporary bullish influence. Open
ing prices, which ranged from y to &c higher,
with May at $2.75 to $2.7S and July at $2.S21a
T. $3.50, were followed by an additional jump
of 4c in extreme cases, but then general fall
that on some transactions went below Satur-
days finish
Increased weakness in wheat developed latev,
notwithstanding announcem aEt that the United
States visible supply total was the lowest at
this in more than years. The close
was unsettled, 32 net ,ower to "a advance
2with May III, and July 2534 to 81 26A.
Corn swayed with wheat. After opening 1c
off to a like advance, the market hardened
decidedly all around and then underwent
general sag.
Rallies .in corn failed to ias5. The close was
heavy at IA 20 / Ii net decline.
Dealings in oats showed a great falling off
as compared with last week. The market was
governed by wheat.
Provisions averaged higher owing to the
readiness with which offerings were absorbed.
Quotations showed unusual sensitiveness to good
sized orders.

Woman Captures Eaale.

Mrs. Winthrop Rowland of the Eel
Chivar Goat ranch in Live Oak Canyon
came out victor in battle with gold
en- eagle and the big bird is now a
captive at the ranch, says Redlands
(Cal.) dispatch. Mrs. Rowland noticed
the bird alight in peach tree. II
appeared to be exhausted, so SHE
grabbed one leg and then the battle
started.
Mrs. Rowland saw that she was in
for n fight, and not daring to let loose
of the bird, made dive for its neck
and was lucky enough to get hold of II.
She was thus able to keep the bird
from biting her, but it beat at her with
its wings. She managed to get 1t into
u pigeon corral and then found that
she was almost exhausted by the fight.
The eagle is large one, and meas
ures about six feet from tip to tip.
When Mrs. Rowland made an examina-
ton sho found that she had been
wounded, but not seriously.
