SITUATION. For several years past the need of a thoroughly first-class, modern and well-equipped hotel has been keenly felt in this city. The demands made upon the other hotels were too great at many times during the year, and consequently strangers who were here at such times suffered many inconveniences. We believe that the present and future condition of affairs in St. Louis will justify this latest addition, and that the Jefferson Hotel "will always be a profitable investment, both "on account of the demand for better accommodations and because of the excellence of its construction, maintenance and location. We recommend these bonds for investment, and will be pleased to furnish full particulars on application. Copies of th j trust deed securing the bonds may b had at this office.

June T.-The profcssloni"; contlnxcpt in the stock market started lo-day with very discouraging views of tho hopej of tr.j- activity in the market or of any movement of prices. The failure of tho market to show any response to yesterday's decided movement In Ontario nJ '.Votera was made the basis for this ltO!'es-snr";.- and the reflection of realis ing Mien In tli-i ratty 1-polm decltco in thet :otJ: aggravated tho depressed sen timent.

The ecU!y bulletin on the crops ot the "vYY-nsbttf Uta-csu proved rather more fa vorob'.o than was expected on wheat, for oth theVlntcr and spring crop, nnd the fAVorabic progress of the cotton crop went to accentuate 'the effect of the Government r-pori June 1 condition of that crop. The bulletin vi as less hopeful as to the corn crop, bot the maturity .of that Crop Is still. co far distant as to detract from the tui-I-ortaJice attached to Its present condition.

The money market was almost stagnant ar.d ratei were IncllneJ to drop, though with little money offering at the present unattractive rates. The advance in tho storilnc rates at Paris to 25 francs 1TH centimes was a decisive indication that ths course of uapltai is ro longer draw In toward that center. Incoming gold to the London roaiket was accordingly taken by tne liank of England, with no demand for Paris account. The discount market was yielding, both In Paris and Ijndon.

New York. June 7. The dry goods market Is In the same waiting attitude, with buyers an ticipating some development op the rice ques tion. More or less expert business Is In progress, but domestic buyers exhibit little in terest In this class of goods. The outlook is for no immediate Improvement, but it Is be. SUMMARY 6FST.L0UIS MARKETS Hears tried to press their apparent .dvantae at the openlns. but there .as much better absorption ot offerings than on the previous day, and before the end of th llrst hour the market took an upward turn. Through tl.e remainder of the session there was enough buying to keep future values strong. Members of a paity of local brokers who recently made a tour of the West were busy circulating bullish rumors as to the crop outlook. Cables wcie unexpectedly strong in view of Monday's do mestic advances, and Bradstreet's rcoort showed a heavy decrease In the vcrld' vl3lblc fctipply. Jn the corresponding week last year there was an Increase. Larjta local receipts were partly lcsponsible for the early selling, but as there was not :i (.oriespoiiding Increuso in the cash demand this factor had only a tcmoorary efTect. Korelg" buying v.-as In fair volume ar.d trading sentiment abroad seemed to be gen erally h.illish. Shipments from primary points were much larger than on the cor responding day 'nsl year. In th last hour there was a good deal of professional buIng, and the market was further strengthened by short covering on the part ot opsrators who sold around the opening. Throats ot rain lu tho Southwest and strength In other domestic markets caused an atlvanr- in corn after :t rather easy opening. Vi hile trading was not heavy the fietlng at the close was bullish. .luly wheat opened ;i'fta8c off and-clcied ';C up. July coin opened l-16c off and closed 2c up. July oats closed nominally unchanged. Receipts of produce were moderate and prices of fruits and vegetables were gen erally steady. Local securities were fairly actic, with interest mainly In the traction group. Yesterday's bank clearings were J9,70o,0SS, balances ?0i,7rj3. Discount rates were steady l-elwecr: -P.; and C rcr cent. Spot cjf.oti was unchanged I" the local market. i ... WHEAT VALUES ADVANCE ON PROFESSIONAL BUYING, WOULD'S VISI15LE SUPPLY DKUKEASES. Corn Opens Easy, bur Closes Strung on Prospects of More Uiiin. Strength of cables, scattered damage re ports, a decrease In the world'- visible supply and recent local overselling were bullish factors In yesterday's wheat mar ket. At the start the bears were still con fident, but the eagerness with which their offerings were absorbed caused many of the t"horts to rush to cover. Weather con ditions were generally favoratle. but there were predictions of more rain In the Southwest. Buying was- brisk toward the end of the session and closing prices were stron-: an.i higher.
