Special cable from V ienna to the ex-presitlem of tbU board, from • hi* eon. gave crop prospect very bad In Danublan provinces; half crop for Kourm.nL. the Hungarian crop badly hurt by rust. The repetition of former news from domestic fl«ld» continued, and the contlrmaUon of damage by fly especially was made manifest, and Prime thla morning, in hia detailed report, mentioned from various sections, and finally *ay» there Is not a State to-day In the winter wheat belt north of the Ohio river which has not been thoroughly Impregnated with this pest. Dull trade, howevef. and lack ot response to the news disgusted holders, and there was a shake-out which carried the market down to 73%e for July wheat here, on the dumping of perhaps 8 000,000 to 10.000,000 bushels of long wheat. Borne buying took place at the bottom, and brokers, supposed to represent W. R Linn, being especially busy. The Northwest was weak on their receipts, which were considerably over last week and approached last year. California was a buyer, their conditions being reported bad. Weather Bureau showed some advance In temperatures. Primary receipts 360.000 compared with 740.000 last year. Experts disagreed on cash situation, some claiming a demand, other denying it. Nothing worked up to this writing, although reported Buffalo strikers at work again. Clearances 166,000 today. It Is usually the case. Judged by the past., that wheat or anything else rarely bulls even under the most Imperative conditions when everybody wants It, and the shake-out of to-day may be the prelude of advancing prices, now that so much heretofore held by disgusted holders has gone overboard. Coni—Primary receipts 450,UW, compared with 836.000 last year. Market steady. The weekly croo bulletins, especially from Iowa, make the crowd feel bullish, but the country is selling, and the prospects are for improved weal her. Clearances 483,000 bushels. The BufDtlo situation has cleared. Oats have been weaker, advices all confirming the largely Increased ami sown. May maintained Its 3 cents premium over the July option Provisions—Hog receipts at Wester.i points 107,000 head, against 86,000 lust year, too much for the market, which was easy.

•took Goaalp. [By L W. Louis's Wire ] New York. May 34.—Thlr morning's market has been even duller than Its Immediate predecessors. At. the opening there was a few small buying orders, and in a good many cases prices were fractionally higher than last night’s close. It did not take long, however, to disclose the fact that the market was entirely professional and that commission houses were doing nothing scarcely. Brooklyn Rapid Transit and Sugar were both strong In the early trading on a scattered covering of shorts on the part of the traders. London was a moderate buyer of stocks tn the fiist hour of business, taking about 5.000 shares on balance. Atchison preferred was fairly strong, advancing on the covering of shorts and some little outside buying. Somewhat more exhaustive crop reports have been received from different points of this system, the winter wneat and com belt, which state that the recent heavy rains have Improved conditlons materially. There were very special movements In the market which are ot sufficient magnitude to require any comment. A few of the newly listed Industrials such as smelters, hoop and National Steel stocks, have be°n weak, but no special reason other than a scattered liquidation brought about principally by dullness was given- The general list and standard railroad shares, considering the dullness ot the market, have shown considerable undertone of strength. As It Is usually the case In a dull market, prices decline when there Is any movement.

Winter Seeding In North Dakota. [Jamestown Alert.] The delay In seeding In the Red river valley caused by the late spring and continued, rains, has brought up the question of seeding spring wheat In the fall. It is stated that a number of farmers are debating the scheme of sowing their wheat late In October, Just before the freexe-up, and allowing the grain to remain in the ground all winter, ready to sprout and come forward promptly in the spring. It is argued that this la as well as to have the seed In the granary and will insure against the conditions that obtain thla spring. One of the large fanners near Grand Forks will sow ten acres In this way next fall. It is not believed winter gcedlng of spring wheat will lie profitable, although the experiment Is certainly worth a careful trial. It Is hard to say what the possibilities of the North Dakota soil are, after the ‘'wildness" of centuries has been cultivated away. Nature takes good care to reproduce her seeds in plant life for each successive season, and while the grain this year Is backward, it L* not more so than other natural vegetation. There is no good reason to believe that the full time for maturity will be withheld In 1899.

The entire list showed small gains which extended to over a point in Canadian Pacific. Minneapolis. St. Paul & Sno Ste. Marie was an exception, with a loss of 1%. The specialties fluctuated wldeto, but generally turned to a higher level. Business in railway shares was larger than of late. The Western group was sustained by the favorable showing of St. Paul for the third week In May. New York Mr Brake was offered at 186, which Is 10% points lower than yesterday's close. Liquidation in some of the flotations, particularly Wheeling & Lake Erie, American Hoop and Tin Plate, carded them down materially. Other stocks, however, were not influenced, and held at the top. A sharp rise in wheat was without effect, as free offerings from Liverpool operators served to offset apprehension.

A. HERZ.

W. E. McLean, wdio. In his usual dignified and eloquent style, welcomed the guests in a hearty speech. A brief synopsis of his speech is as follows: “Comrades, Visitors and Fellow-Citl-zens: Through the honor conferred upon me by the executive committee of this encampment, 1 give you the committees most cordial welcome. 1 bid you thrice welcome to our beautiful city of homes. Your coming among us we regard as an Inspiration to all men, young or old. As a member of the Morton Post, No. 1, I also extend to you the cordial welcome of your comrades. We are ready to attend all your Ills, If any, but you won’t be sick, as we boast that our death rate is the smallest for any city in the country, according to population. Terre Haute feels honored by your presence, you brave men who constitute the encampment. One more year with stirring events and glorious achievements by our country has come and gone, and you, my comrades, chosen representatives of the noblest organization on earth, are again assembled to consult on matters of importance to our cherished order.. Since our last encampment the world has been changed by American arms and American pluck. Some weeks ago, in

LAWRENCE BURGETT.

compliance with our treaty stipulation, we paid our cousins of Spain some twenty million dollars, but it will never be forgotten that we had previously provided them with the largest sub-marine navy the world ever saw. It Is right that I mention old Ft. Harrison, on the banks of the Wabash, where two presidents. General Harrison and Lieut. Taylor, were first heard of. We are gathered to rekindle the spirit of 1861, which is still alive, and to light anew a spirit to support and sustain the American boys who are planting and defending Old Glory in the Orient. Every result of the war must be met and dealt with In that manly Anglo-Saxon way befitting a people who proudly boast the best blood of the world.” Response by Comrade Ryan. Comrade Daidel Ryan, department commander, followed Colonel McLean with a short address, well to the point. Governor Mount was then Introduced, and spoke with a spirit which has seldom been seen exhibited by the State exeoutlve. After Governor Mount had concluded his spirited address, the audience withdrew, and the opening session of the department proper began. The reports of the department officers were submitted and referred. The Rev. Daniel Ryan, retiring department commander, in the submission of his report, felicitated the Grand Army over

the additional luster to American arms in the successful termination of the Span-ish-American war, which he summarized as having resulted in the destruction of twenty Spanish warships and a loss to the enemy of 1,400 sailors and 960 soldiers killed In action, while but eleven American sailors and 20,296 American soldiers and marines suffered death. The results had been the annexation of 120,110 square milts of territory, with a population of 8,892.769. In this war not an American battleship was lost, nor was there a flag or a gun captured by the enemy. The department commander voiced the general sentiment of his command with reference to the continuance of pensions, and paid a handsome compliment to the Woman's Relief Corps, which had expended for the benefit of destitute soldiers since 1879 a total of $l,700,0(i0. Special attention was also called to the Sons of Veterans as an organization worthy of all encouragement. Both on land and at sea. in the war with Spain and with the Filipinos, they had proved themselves as “worthy sons of noble sires.” During the year SS6 comrades had died, and of the Grand Army at large over 35,000

yearly answer the long roll for the last time. A tribute wa* paid to the late James A. Sexton, commander-ln-chtef, and the department commander reports that be voices the wishes of the comrades at large in any Ing that the vlce-commander-ln-chlef should succeed to any place made vacant In the order of seniority without actlcn on the part of the council of administration. It eras recommended that the encampment take the initiative In such amendment, so that hereafter there will be no uncertainty In thla respect, either In national, department or post organizations. All Comrades Cared For. The department commander lelt specially thankful because not an old comrade Is* to-day la a poor-house. He complimented Commandant Magrew and his noble wife for the magnificent manner In which the State heme at Lafayette had been managed. There were also words of gratitude because of the superb management of th# State Soldiers' and Sailors’ Orphans' Asylum at Knightstown, with its 650 children, “happy and contented In their beautiful home.” The commander felt that great credit was due to Professor Superintendent Graham ami his estimable wife, together with the admirable corps of teachers, because of their faithlil work, and that the Legislature of Indian t had done nobly in its liberal approprlittlons to this institution. Relative to tr.e contemplated return of Confederate battle flags, the department commander quotes approvingly from the annual ad. rc&s of the late commander-in-chief, deprecating any agitation on this question, and rejoicing that the present beholds sectional lines absolutely abolished and the men of all States following the same- flag. He adds: "This flag was captured In the heat of battle, but it will be returned in love.” Richard M *9mdt:k. assistant adutantgeneral. showed that 18,484 members In good standing were on the rolls December 31, 1898, at which time the final reports were submitted.

A suitable gift was presented to each child In the institution last Christmas at a cost of $433.79.
