The Modern Miller reported a slight improvement In the territory which ha* shown the greatest impairment In winter wheat conditions. But, In general. It 1* reported, little change for the better. Bradstreet’s figure* on wheat export* for the weak were 5,293.000 bushels. The Antwerp market closed unchanged from yesterday; Berlin 8fcc lower: Buda-Pesth lower, and Liverpool id lower. The movement of corn was fair, with prospects of considerable doing within the next thirty days. The market was devoid of any sensational features. There were heavy sales of cash cosn early, on country orders, and many of the local

That his confidence is shared was indicated by purchases of Erie firsts and Illtnots Central on prospects of increased dividends. Trading was wide and prices generally showed the advancing tendency', which spread from slock to stock until even the usually inactive stocks had been affected. It looked as though the large banking interests were willing to see higher prices for all securities.

Thomson’* Grain Lett©'. Wheat—The market In Chicago was only moderately active, but the tone was firm. The Modern Miller, while not radical. was construed as moderately bullish. It Is said there Is some slight improvement In places, but In general no change for the better. The season In general la fully two weeks later than usual. Our own advices frrm the middle west are that wheat ia generally thin on the ground and is heading short.

There

as repoi exports without rain. The strength in the Chicago market Is largely due to light offering. A little wheat is hedged In Chicago for other markets, and as Armour Is carrying the cash wheat In Chicago there la only a speculative selling pressure. Crop advices are still the Important factor. Estimated cars. S5. Corn—The market in Chicago was easier earlier, but closed firm. In sympathy with wheat. The trade Is not -large, and the buying seems scattered and mainly to cover shorts. Cash situation is a moderate one. and country offerings continue liberal. We will hold to the view that receipts next month will be large, and, with normal conditions for the growing crop, corn should be sold on the rallies. Estimated cars 440. Oats—The market wae strong on speculative buying, and partly in sympathy with strength In wheat, yesterday s break accumulated considerable short Interest, much of which was covering to-day. The cash situation Is not calculated to hold prices at the moment, and crop advices j axe the important factors. We are inclined to think that the poor start the j crop has made is discouraging. Estimated t cars 195. Provisions—The market was Arm and j higher. Receipts of hogs. 54,000, against j 58,000 last year. The strength here was j due to buying pocking interests, which j also Induced some covering of shorts. |

Maintain* the Lead in the Indiana Oil Field. [Special to The Indianapolis News.] MARION, Ind., May 22.—During the week there were 101 wells completed In the oil districts of Indiana, a slight decrease from the previous week. A dozen of these were dry holes or gas wells, and the initial dally output of the new producers was 2.644 barrels, an average of clone to twenty-five barrels a well. The wells are distributed among the following districts: Comp. Prod. Dry District. 'Weils. _ Bbls. Holes.

FEWER VICE-GRAND MASTERS

At this morning’s session of tbe meeting of the Switchmen's Union of North America it was decided to reduce the number of \1ce-snuM master* from five to three, and to divide the country Into three districts, each district to be In the charge of a district organiser, who shall have full power of organisation tn his district and power to settle strikes and conduct such other business as may come up in his district. When, however. It is impossible for the organiser satisfactorily to settle any question it will be referred to the grand master. Tbe new order will go into effect immediately after the close of tbe convention. It was necessitated by the organisation outgrowing Us present methods. The salary of tbe district organ lx er* will be $150 a month. A number of resolution* were introduced and passed. They Included a vote of thanks to the Lake Shore railroad for a special car that had been furnished the delegates, and a general vqte of thanks to

NOAH B. SMITH. of Indianapolis. Chairman of the Executive Board.

the various roads that had furnished passes to the delegates to attend the convention. A vote of thanks was also extended to Hugh McGowan, by suggestion of the wives of the delegates, for the courteous treatment he ha* afforded the delegates In the form of street car rides. Condemned Sympathetic Strike*. One of the most warmly applauded resolutions condemned sympathetic strikes, and -embodied the expressions that the organization believes In strikes only as a last resort. The revision of the constitution was temporarily suspended, to allow of the introduction of these resolutions. ,The revision of the constitution of the Grand Lodge occupied all of yesterday afternoon's session of the meeting of the Switchmen’s Union of North America, and it is probable that the work will not be finished for several days. The work is being done in a methodical way which requires much time. The constitution Is taken up section by section and thoroughly dissected. The resulting suggestions as to chaoses are then Turned over to the constitution committee, consisting of R. J. Martin, of Minneapolis; Thomas D. Hagerty, of Halstead. Pa.; Ed Allen, of Kansas City; S. E. Heberling, of Denver, and W. H. Thomas, of St. Louis. It seems that the proposition to establish a women s auxiliary Is to die a natural death, for the delegates only smile with kindly tolerance when such a subject is broached No candidates have yet arisen to combat the election of the present grand officers, and It is probable that the election will simply be a re-election.

GREEK PRINCE TO WED.

Andreas will Marry Alice of Battenberg. ATHENS, May 22.—Prince Andreas, whose bethrothal to Prince Alice of Battenberg was announced this week, Is the fourth son of King George of Greece. The prince was twenty-one years old last January; the princess was eighteen in February. He is a sublieutenant of cavalry in the Greek army. She was the favorite great-granddaugh-ter of Queen Victoria, the eldest granddaughter of King Edward’s dead sister Alice who was the wife of the grand duke of Hesse. The princess’s father is Prince Louis of Battenberg. Prince Andrea’s father Is a brother o f Queen Alexandra. As the prince is a nephew of King Edward and the princess is a grandniece, the curious can figure out a puzzling mixture of relationships the marriage will bring about. J MONUMENT TO KROPP.

His Native Town will Remember Inventor. BERLIN, May 22.—At a meeting attended by the Krupp workmen and the burgomaster of Essen, It was decided to erect a statue to Frederick Alfred Krupp In his native town. The Krupp employes are anxious to have a leading share in erecting the monument in order that it may be permanent evidence of their attitude toward their late chief. It was decided to appoint a monument committee to be composed of eight Krupp employes, five workmen and three officials, four representatives of the Essen town council and two of Krupp's personal friends.

MINISTER BRYAN IS POPULAR. American Official at Lisbon Fast Becoming a Social Favorite.

The 185 delegates to, the national convention of the American Federation of Musicians were tied up to-day in a long drawn-out election, which lasted all morning and well into the afternoon. It resulted as follows: President—Joseph Weber, of Cincinnati. First Vice-President—C. H. Ross, of Albany, N. Y. Second Vice-Presklent—G. W. Bope, of Columbus, O. SecreUry-Owen Miller, of St. Louis. Treasurer-Otto Ostendorf, of St. Louis, District Officer*—First district. F. Sanger. of Springfield, Maas; Second district. George Nachman, of Baltimore; Third district. George Sc hath, of Cincinnati; Fourth district. Will S. Rose, of Kansas City; Fifth district. Frank Splegle. of Denver; Sixth district, C. E. York, of Portland, Ore.; Seventh district, G. Wil«m. of Davenport, la.; Eighth district. Eugene C. Schmitz, of San Francisco; Ninth district, D. A. Carey, of Toronto, Canada. President Weber. Secretary Miller and Treasurer Ostendorf were re-elected without opposition. In the election of the first vice-president. Roes defeated Q. W. Bope and J. J. ' Masten. Rosa received ninety-three votes; Bope, forty-five, and Masten, thirty-eight In the contest between Bone and O. W. Crocker, of Philadelphia. for second vice-president, Bope received eighty-seven and Crocker eighty* four vote*. President Weber, Secretary Miller and D. A. Carey, of Toronto were selected delegates to the American Federation of Labor. The convention adourned at 2 o'clock for dinner and a trolley rid*. A night session will be held. It is doubtful If the delegatee will complete their wok by to-mor-row night. Concerning U. 8. Band. One of the most interesting features of the convention to-day waa the present* tion pf resolutions directed toward the United States Military Band service. One includes a proposed schedule of advanced wages for the musician*. It would require each band to have at least thirty-five members. The wage schedule Is: Assistant band masters. $34 a month: drum majors, $25; chief trumpeters, $22; cook. $a>; sixteen musicians of the first class, $25; fifteen musicians of the second class. $20. Under this resolution the United States musicians would be barred from rendering any service, with or without pay, at any function given wholly or In pert by ctvUlana. Another resolution would bar all musicians enlisted In the United States arnw navy or oostal service, from membershi in the Federation. These measures wl be voted on to-morrow. Another Interesting new resolution that has been offered For consideration, if adopted, would require that orchestras in 10, 20 and 30-cent theaters In cities not less than 75,000 population, have at least nine musicians. Another resolution would require all theatrical cotr panies to carry only union mut'clans after August L Music on Excursion*. “Give the people music on their excursion trains." That is one of the new movements started by the Federation in its national convention. The Federation has appointed a committee of three delegates to make the circuit of all of the railroad managers and to induce them to put bands on all of their excursions, and especially the low-priced Sunday outing tratna. The musicians will try to convince the railroad men that music will draw more people and will pay. The Federation is considering grievances preferred by the delegatee from New Orleans against tbe proprietors of music halls, theaters and different places of amusement In that city against the employment of French musicians at low wages. Klaw A Erlanger, the big theatrical managers, who have some theaters and a score of theatrical and operatic productions on the road, have one of the houses against which complaint is made, and a boycott may be declared against the company. It w musicians all over .... to play Id the company's houses or for its productions. The Home for Musicians. The musicians will probably not vote to establish the home for aged and indigent musicians this year. It was referred back to the committees yesterday. An effort to remove the limit of ten' delegatee to the national convention from any one union was defeated. The musicians will do a little lobbying in the next Congress. It is claimed the pay of musicians in the United States military service Is too low. and the result is that the musicians feel compelled to increase their meager income by playing at concerts and private entertainments, and thus coming into competition with local musicians.

Th* First Strike, •f’

The smoker given by th* local union In Germania hall last night was a delightful event, and partook more of the nature of a luncheon. A number of women were present. Henry War rum was toastmaster. Among those that spoke were President Joseph Weber and Secretary Owen Miller, of the musicians, and Secretary W. B. Wilson and Vice-President T. L. Lewis, of the miners. One of the most Interesting features of the speecnes was President Weber’s story of one of the first and most disastrous musicians' strikes. It was when Nero’s musicians walked out on him and left the court without music. Instead ot getting an arbitration or settlement of grievances, tbe strikers received the death penalty. He said that tbe trades union and the socialist movements were separate and distinct. FOMOU8 COMPOSERS.
