reports that the v»!ne of the leaser eipori of 1 97
exceeded the ercater t-xpon of the same period of

Explanation.
The arrow fl!es»ith ihewind. The top figures
at station indica.t- maximum temperature for the
days: those underneath it. if any, the amount of j
rainfall, of melted snow in inches and hundredths, j
during the past twelve hours. Isobars, or solid i
lines, connect poln s of equal air pressure; iso- i
therms, or dotttd lines, equal temperature. The |
word "high " mpans high barometric pressure aud I
is usually accompanied by fair weather: "low" j
refers to low pressure, and is usually preceded j
and accompanied by cloudy weather and rains, j
"Lows" usually first appear on the Washington
coast. Wh-n the pressure Is high In the interior
and low along the coast, and the isobars extend {
north and south alone the coast, rain is probable: j
but «h«n the "low Is Inclosed with isobars of !
marked curvature, rain so'ith of Oregon is improb- !
able. With a "high" in the vicinity of Idaho, and j
the pressure falling to the California coast, warmer
weather may be expected in summer and colder
weather in winter. The reverse of these conditions
will produce an opposite result.

CHICAGO 3IAJKKETS.
CHICAGO, lii. Aug. 23 There was wild ex
citement at the opening of provisions to-day, and
prices jumped 15c on the firs: transactions. Trad
ing was very heavy and general, with foreigners
leading. Prices, however, soon gave way under
the heavy profit taking ana in synipaihy with the
break in Brain, closing steady at a slight decline
for the day. The cash trade continues liberal.
<_K\inK to the heavy realization of late, induced by
the sharp advance, muny operators believe the
market to be in a healthy position and ready to
respond to the bullish conditions surrounding.
In catlle prices and the activiiy were equal to
that of las . Thursday, 10@15c stronger than Fri
day, but not quite a* stronc and active as a week
ago to-day. ThPre was a big iuh on Texans, some
sixty carloads about all of which sold steady.
About 3500 Montana rangers arrived here, all of
which sold better than at the close of last week.
But choice st"Ck of nil kind* was steady.
Valu- son all soits weie a gooa nickel higher
th n at t;ie cioae of Saturday, in some cases 10c,
the mediums and heavy showing the greater ad
vances
The sheep trade was active and prices steady as
comparea with the close of last week. Tbe'otg
attraction in the lamb line was a consignment of
Utahs that sold for $5 15, and said to be by experts
on both sides tf the market the best here this
year. _

cent apart at differe t sides ot Ihe pit. The price
quietly dropped to 9514 c. Defore one could catch
his breath the price was again 99% c. Commis- j
sion-houses then began pouring out their long
wheat. Buyers were less mc ined to take wheat
on the bulge, and a rapid arop of 3 cen:s quickly
followed. Buying by the clique started another
bulge which took the price to 98% c. The price
ranged between 98% c aud 97c until the lit-i half
of the session, when a determined ertort was made
on he part of the shorts to drive prices down.
[September sold at 95V&C and closed at 96c, De
cember 95% c and May at 971-ij, sellers. '1 he
day's news ua< inclined to the bull side. North
west crops continue to be poor. Foreigners were
fair bnyt-rs
The V;sible supply decreased 500,000 bushels.
The amount of wheat and flour on passage in
creased 150,000 quarters. Bussiau shipments were
600,000 bushrls lesi than New York. New York
reported a com ntiou formed to bear the wh at
market. Their efforts wiil have hard work going
against the world's demands. uropean countries
require 000,000 bushels more wheat than
America can spare. Talk of higher ocean rates
that will keep higher prices down U all folly, if
foreigners must have wheat and farrrern will not
sell unless at their own pr:ce, it is difU' ult 10 see
where rates are going to stop wheat teaching a
certain limit. The shorts based ti)elr judgment
upon this theory when wheat was around 80 cents.
The result bus been di.nstrous Wheat will have
its setbacks. Mich 'hinus are exp<cted, but
wheat basnot sold at $1 on sentiment. It reached
tha: price necause current conditions warrant
tne price. There has never been a year when con
ditions -.vere as lavorabie to higher prices as the
present. In 1891 the advance had no real foun
dation to stand upou. France bad many markets
to draw from that year, whereas this year finds
every foreign country short of wheat. England
kept out of the market. The buying for the
pas" six weeks has been fjr Continental a' count.
It remains yet tor Kngl-nd to buy ber stocks.
There will be a steady, natural demand for wheat
ior mauy months to come.

Why lie Let Her Go.
A certain shopwalker in one of the
large drapery establishments in the West
End of London was noted for his severity
to those under him.
One day he aDproached a junior assist
ant, whose counter a lady had just left.
"You let that lady «o out without mak
ing a purchase?" he askad, severely.
"Yes, sir, I "
"And she was at your counter fully ten
minutes?"
"Doubtless, but then, you see ''
"Exactly. I saw tnat, in sDita of all
the questions she put to you, you rarely
answered her, and never attempted to get
what she wanted."
"Well, but "
"You need not make any excuse. I
shall report you for carelessness."
"Well, I hadn't what si;e wanted."
"What was that?"
"Six shillings! She's a book canvasser,
selling 'All About the Jubilee."
The shopwalker retired crestfallen,
amid the audible titters of all the assist
ants in the department, who greatly en
joyed his discomfiture. — Spire Moments.
