When the pressure is high in the interior and low along the coast,and the isobars extend north and south along the coast, rain is probable; | but when the “low” 1s inclosed with isobars of marked curvature, rain south of Oregon is improb- able. With a “high” in the vicinity of Idaho, and the pressure falling to the California coast, warmer weather may be expected in summer and coider weather in winter.

Y., May 4.—Speculation on the Stock Exchange to-day, while qulet, was in the main strong. Easy money, more favorable crop news and the heavy oversubscription of the New York City 314 per cent goid bonds were the tactors at work. T'he standard railroad stocks cut but a small figure in the totsl dealings, ana Lon- don operations were unusually light. The engage- ment of $2,150.000 gold for shipment to Europe bad butlit(le effect, and less attention was paid to the rumors that at feast §10,000,000 wouid be for- warded before the middle of June. Bay State Gas, Surar, Tobacco, Leather preferred* Chicago Gas and Rubber were most prominent in to-day limiied speculation. Bay State Gas bounded up from 257 to 31%4; fell to 2815 and - later rose 10 32. Boston advices were to the effect that the fight between the gas companles had ceased, and this accounted for the rise, Sugar first ran off from 125 to 12414 on & reduction of a six--| teenth in refined, and then rallied to 125. Tobaccp dropped from 677 to 6564 and rose to 68. Rub- ber was heavy, breaking 2#/s to 2334 for the com- mon and 315 10 84 for uhe preferre LoD stock came out on ihe announcement that ex-President Bannigan intended erecting a new $1,000,000 plant to compete with the company. Leather preferred was_decidedly strong and rose from 62142 to 6ils. North American was more activé and firmer than of jate and rose to 6. The company, it is announced, has paid oft $1,800.000 of its no es of Iat- and has still & moderate amount outstanding which wili be liquidated shortly. The liquidation is due to the recent sale of its holdings in the Milwaukee Street Railway and the Morgan syndicate. Speculution was strong at the close, Net changes in the railway lisi show gains of 15 to 1 per ceut. ‘T'he industrials gained 35 10 6 per cent, Bay State Gas Jeading. Rubber common 10st 15% and pre. ferred 31, per cent. Total sales were 117,000 shares. Bouds were dull aud firm. Sales footed up $919,000.

CHICAGO, Irr., May 4.—In wheat to-day the feeling was rather uncertain. Last weex's victory of the bears placed prices on a somewhat low plane and their success seemed to have brought satistac- tion enough for the present. At the same time the bulls were without argument on which to base claims against an advance. The weather yester- day in the Northwes. was propitious for seeding purposes, but the westher bureau predicted showers for to-day and to-night. Good growing Ather was reported in winter wheat sections. Liverpool cables were lower. Becelpts in the Northwest were 477 cars, against 509 last Monday and 384 a year ago. Chicago received 18 cars and inspected out 190,159 bushels. The visible supoly decreased 2,427,000 bushels, which was accounted large but not_extraordinary in view of the recent opening of late navigation. The world’s shipments for the week were 6, ,000 bushels. There was an increase in the nount on ocean passage of 560,000 bushels and s decrease in the English visi- ble supply of 77,000 bushels. Closing Continental cables were irregulal Xport clearances were 230,186 bushels. July wheat opened from 63 %@ 6155c, sold between 62c and 613gc, closing at 615&c, 14@%4c under Saturdsy. Estimated re- celpts for to-morrow 85 cars. CORN—Was¥without & particle of news or in- formation favorable to values early. The compara- tive steadiness of wheat tended to support prices, however, and the market did not suffer materially, Recelpts, which were large at 36 cars, imparted some weakness to the tone at the opening. Liver- pool cables were steady. Withdrawals from store were light at 35,654 bushels. The visibie supply decreased 8,836,000 bu ocean passage increased 720,000 bushels. Export clearances amounted to 145,171 bushels. July corn opened at 2615@2954c, 501d at 203c, closing 293¢, 4c under Saturday. Estimated receipts for to-morrow 415 cars. OATS—Fell into the course of the other markets because of the lack of news directly bearing on their own condition. Receipts were 198 cars and 2,125.000 bushels were withdrawn from store. The visible supply decreased 1,355,000 bushels. July oats closed a shade under Saturday. Esti- mated receipts for to-morrow 85 cara. FLAX—Was steady. Cash, 583,@90c; May, 85c; July 8734c; September, 80@90%zc. Receipts were American, | 63 cars. PROVISIONS—The product market early pre- sented a contrast to grain, the tone showing de- cided strength nnd_vigor. 'The explanation of the improvements was found in a better hog market. Later In the morning the trade lapsed into dull- ness and imactivity with prices fairly well main- tained,but before the close a heavier tone appeared and recessions took pl July pork and lard closed unchanged and July ribs 5¢ higher.

There were & good many orders to be filled the moderate receipts of last week being still felt. The supply of hogs was greatly reduced, and prices were therefore stronger. An advance of 10c was established. An active local and shipping demand for sheep was noted. Prices were 10¢ higher. CATTLE - Receipts, 17,000.

He makes trips into the big., country of the West. But on sucfi o;?: s;gnu his weapon is the camera, not the rifle. The invention which Mr. Shiras has patented is at once very simple and inge- nious. 2 The camera is set by one of the paths through the woods made by bear, eli anq deer going to the watercourses before day- break, and again in the evening, A string is stretched across the path and fastened to the trap. When the animal strikes it the camera is uncovered, and the spring shutter dischnrged. giving an in- stantaneous exposure o; the&)xate.
