Riba, September, *5.97*4. Chicago, Aug. 2.—The wheat market put in a bard session to-day. It differed from that of yesterday in that there was no recovery to sneak of before the close. The curb trade, before the regular op ening, was at fractionally higher prices, light receipts from the northwest, sixty four ears being the basis for the slight ly firmer tone. The opening transactions were made with part of the advance main tained, but the foundation of the strength was destroyed -when the expla nation of the small movement was given. Farmers in the section referred to are busy harvesting at present and, there fore, have no trine to haul grain to mar kilt. Bt. Louis bad 111.600 bushels of wheat this morning, which further Imbued sellers with courage. About noon the an nouncement of heavy gold shipments to Europe to-morrow struck another blow at prices, t'he steady *tone, which had then developed on covering by shorts, giving place to one of extreme weakness and de pression, wltlh holders liquidating freely ami bears pressing their advantage. A slight rally took place later, but it did not betoken any change in the sentiment, be ing due rather to the taking of profits on previous sales. September wheat op ened from 69t4(T700. declined to GSHc, clos ing at 68i.,568*>*e—l* 8 51*c under yesterday. Cash wheat was 1 to l*4c lower Chan yes terday, and weak at the decline. Corn—There was a marked change In the feeling and demeanor of September shorts In corn to-day, where yesterday they were all anxiety, and caused the market for that option to act in a feverish manner, to-day were appearing very comfortable and allowing prices to pursue their own course, which was downward in sympathy with wheat. It was the holders' turn to worry and under the altered circumstances there was heavy liquidation. September opened at 41c, declined to 42>,4c. closing at 42%c—lQ'lHc under yesterday. Cash corn was not insuch good demand to-day and prices were quotable l{ilV4c lower. Oats—This markeit was a slow affair, until the emphatic weakness In wheat ap peared about noon, when there was a decided break. The decline started under the selling out by September longs and was helped along by the local crowd, who perceived the inadequacy of the de mand and raided prices in a bearish way Some of the large commission houses had large selling orders and quite a consid erable quantity of oats were thrown over board. September oats closed %c lower. Cash oats were weak and a shade lower. Provisions—Pork, lard and ribs held up as long as it was possible. The ability to do so came from a recovery in hog prices at the yards, buit against the weakness communicated by grain, there was but little oppftslng force. Professional short sellers offered liberally and disgruntled hulls sold out. The consequence was that every thing suffered, pork more than Other articles. A trifling improvement on the worst prices of (the day were recorded before the close, but in the end t'he net loss on September pork was 3.5 c, on Sep tember lard, sc. and on September ribs, *li C .

Possibly very few people know that In the plant world every once and a while the botanists discover anew malady. An Instance of the kind has happened right at Charleston's doors within the last few years. It was along in 1891 that the sea island planters first observed that their long staple cotton was suffering from a new disease. The plants would spring up and grow finely for a while, and then, all at once, within a day they would wilt and die. The farmers could find no explana tion of the phenomenon. Apparently the cotton would be doing well, and outward ly there was no reason for the death of the plants. Sometimes there would be merely a few stalks thus affected, and then again It would be all the plants on half an acre or more. Each year the destruction of the plants in this way has increased, and this season Mr. Earle Sloan wrote to the agri- WHEN Overworked m ■ ■ ■ 11 from &tv i an - “us* THE IDEAL TONIC builds up I Strength is lasting I Quickly Mailed Free. • Descriptive Book with Testimony and Portraits OP NOTED CELEBRITIES.

The government responded at once, sending down Dr. Erwin F. Smith, who is the director of vegetable physiology and path ology in the depariment of agriculture. Dr. Smith arrived In Charleston last week, and went at once over lo James Island. He has his headquarb rs at Mr. Hinson's place, across the Ashley, and has already made some valuable discov eries regarding the new diseases. In company with Mr. Sionn and Mr. "James L Watkins of the cotton statistics bureau of the agricultural department, a reporter for the News and Courier called upon Dr. Smith on Monday. Dr. Smith was found In the Impromptu office which he has rigged up for himself In the thirl story of Mr. Hinson's handsome residence. He had before him a high power micro scope and other apparatus of a laboratory and he was surrounded kr.ee deep with dead plants which he had collected from various parts of the Island. Specialists are always Interesting when speaking of their specialty. Dr. Smith was especially so yesterday, as he spoke at some length regarding certain diseases wiQi which crops In this section have been affected. No detective hot bn the trail of a human criminal could have engaged more eagerly In the pursuit of his man thun Dr. Smith has followed the traces of this hitherto unknown agent that is now playing havoc with the sou Island cot ton plants. It did not take him long to find a clew and now he Is following it up step by step, and hopes ultimately to ex plain the whoK case and If possible to dis cover a prevcnatlve. Dr. Smith says that the disease Is one which has been observed for some time in watermelon vines and that It consists of the development of a fungus growth In the water ducts of the plants. When ask • 1 what he meant by fungus he said that It was not a bug, but a germ that was ac quired from the soil, while tlie plant grew, and that the malady was consequently In ternal and not external. With the as sistance of his powerful microscope and a section of watermelon vine'he then pro ceeded to show the visitors Just what killed the plants. He drew diagrams show - ing how each plant i perforated by a complete miniature water works, begin ning with the Vine hair like roots and de veloping Into great duota which supply the stem cf the vine ot plant. No plan*, he said, could live without a fresh supply of water for twenty-four hours, and as soon as the canals w-hieli he had point and out became clogged the plant would die. The germs of this disease were taken from the soli by *he roots and imported to the stem of the plant. Under certain conditions these germs propagated and brought forth a fungus growth. The fungi wave, as It were, travels across the ducts and no Booner was this done than the water supply was either retarded or cut off altogether, und then the death of the plant followed at once. All of this I)r. Smith explalfled In great detail and In a most Interesting manner, illustrating as ho went along with sections of plants In which the fungi had developed and could be plainly seen under the microscope. Dr. Smith said that he hopes to make new discoveries along these same lines before leaving Charleston. He seems already to be confident that the disease from which the sea Island cotton has suffered Is the same as that by which the watermelon vines had been attacked. He proposes to spend a week or more over on James Island, and then he will visit other parts of the south, to see if he can find traces of the new disease elsewhere. Mr. Ellis of James Island, said that the disease was steadily increasing. At first ba< k in 1891 only a few stalks of cotton died from it, but now In some places as much as three acres had been cut off. In a place where one stalk died last season several square yards of cotton would die this season. Mr. Earle Sloan has taken a great deal of Interest in the subject, nnd ho Is ren dering valuable assistance to Dr. Smith. If farmers who have discovered any symp toms of the disease in their crops will communicate the fact to Mr. Sloan he will transmit the intelligence to the agricul tural department and the matter will re ceive the proper attention. API’ROVED BY THE POPE. Ills Holiness Writes to Cardinal Gibbons In Reference to the Cath olic University. The Osservatore Romano of July 11 pub lishes an Interesting and important letter of the holy father to his eminence, Car dinal Gibbons, concerning the Catholic University of America. The following Is the translation; To our beloved son, James, Cardinal Gibbons, of the title of St. Mary's be yond the Tiber, archbishop of Baltimore. Beloved Son, Health and Apostolic Bene diction: Another opportunity for mani festing our affection and our watchful care toward your Catholic university is afforded us by the most pleasing news concerning It, which we have received from you. Seeing that we have ourselves by apostolic authority established it and In vested It with the rights and privileges by law provided, we greatly rejoice, not only that it has approved itself to us by the fruitfulness 6f its good results during the past six years, but also that It is on the point of undertaking stiil wider work. That we hoped for this development of Its growth we declared In the letter recently addressed to us by yourself and the other bishops of the United States. And now we learn that through your ready response and through the liberality of the faithful, new departments of learning are to be in augurated In the university next October, which shall ofT< r fresh advantages to ec clesiastical students, and shall at the same time provide the laity with superior facili ties for higher education. You-have wise ly determined that these studies should be comprised under a faculty of philoso phy, but a philosophy equipped and adorned with those various auxiliary stud ies which, when fully and learnedly pur sued, on the one hand, lend light for the discovery of truth and add glory to truth discovered, und on the other hand, en hance the truth in public esteem and thus render it more practically fruitful. Of such results we find good promise In the names of the distinguished professors al ready chosen, especially because of their resolve faithfully to follow', as we have prescribed, that surest method of philoso phic study pointed out by Bt. Thomas Aquinas. So excellent an undertaking could not but receive the approval and the best wishes of this apostolic see, whose cus tom it has ever been to promise and in every way to foster all learned studies. We wish, therefore, that the university may through this new development mor and more advance, wax strong and boor ish, for the advantage and honor bo.d of religion and of the republic. To It let the t at hollo college* be earnest to scud up their most talented and premising stu dents; in it let the hpnds of holy unity a nous Catholics be Knit * lose and strong, an example of surpassing utility, and from it, as from a fountain open to all, may a great power of both learning und prae ttcal Influence pour far and wide for the best welfare of all. Meantime, to yourself, beloved son, to all the archbishops nnd bishops protec tors of the university, to those through whose generous nmnltlcencp it is support ed and developed, to the professors an 1 students of the new departments and to nil connected with the Institution we most lovingly bestow the apostolic benediction. Given at St. Peter's, In Home, the 29th day of June, IMC>, in the eighteenth yexr of our pontificate. Leo XIII., Pope. Itcpiilitlcfin 111 tics Excursion.
