WHEAT"is
STILL WEAK
Chicago, June 21!.- Excellent wea-
ther for harvesting in the southwest
had a depressing effect today on the
I local wheat market, 'tihe July deliv-
i cry closing ai: a no: loss of 5-8 at 3-4c
I Corn was 5-8 lower. Oats were off
] 3-4 at 7-8c and provisions were un-
| changed, to 5c higher.
The wheat market was weak all
I day owing 'to libera', sales by lead-
ing commission houses which were
' ased chiefly on good weather for
harvesting in the southwest and for
the development of the new crop In
i'he northwi'.->t. A weak marku: for
whea in Liverpool also helped to j
in'Auce selling on. the local exchange.
Reports regarding yields from
threshing were confliofclng but the)
majority of pit traders were inclined;
to place credence in the more opti-
mistic ones. The close was weak.

EL RENO a, PONCA CITY 1
The Locals Win in One of the Pret-
tiest Games of the Season.
El Reno defeated Ponca City yes-
terday in one of the best games play-
ed th s season on the home grounds.
The score was 2 to 1, and El Reno
secured her winning run in the last
half of the eighth, making i't an ex-
citing exhibition from start to finish.
The Ponca City team is composed I
of clean, fast players, and El Reno j
wl'.'l secure two otr: of three in itihls
series only by careful playing and j
.hard work.
Moss dropped another fly in right'
field, but redeemed himself 'by good
stick work and clever base running. I
He also pulled down two difficult,
ones after making the aforesaid er- j
ror. The playing wa§_ good and fast
on both sides yesterday. Young Mur-1
phy filled Jay We ssinger's shoes with
redit to himself and team, accent-:
ing all chances without an error. He
also weiTds the willow in a crafty |
manner.

The American represents that ele-
ment in the realm of fandom which
calls ifor and demands good, fast,
clean, ball and fair play for all con-
cerned. There is entirely too much
dirty roasting permitted on the
grounds. To permit would be fans
to apply vile epithets to the umpire
every time a decision does not suit
them, or to do the same when a play-
er on either side makes an error, or
sometimes an excusable error, does
ncit speak well for the management
of either park or earn, or the city in
general. The rowdy element has Im-
posed upon the ladies and gentlemen
who attend the bail games about j
long enough. It is time the latter re-j
celved some pretention. The man-|
ageinent of it he park and team deserve
protection 'from the county author!- j
ties and in turn the patrons of the
game should be protected.

I Manager George Stalling* of the
j Newkirk, N. J., club says that 'the
I poor showing of his elu'b Is due to
the 'mosquitoes bothering the players.
In spite of the tremendous losses
sustained in recent floods, the rail-
roads have wasted, little time crying |
over spilled milk and are turning
(heir attention to 'future needs and
conditions. Already heavy shipments i
of wheat are reported and the in-
creased traffic will require no little
labor and adjustment. While some
crops are ruined he .production In
the state will be the heaviest In
three years.

Two cases of Oklahoma territory
against the Rock Island railroad,
Ibroug'ht during the last territorial
administration by Attorney General
Cromwell, was dismissed Monday
by the supreme court on tihe ground
that conditions have so changed since j
statehood 'thai; it is unnecessary for j
the court to pass on the numerous
intricate legal questions involved.
The opinion is by Assoc ate Justice
Kane.
One suit sought to restrain the
railroad from charging a rate in ex-
cess of hat existing In Kansas, it be-
ing argued that there was an agree-
ment to thai: effect In the charter
granted the Rock Island road by con-
gress. The injunction was issued In
Garfield county and the case was ap-
]>ealed on the ground that the state
court had no jurisdiction.
The other case against the Rock
Isla-nd was Msed on the alleged exor-
bitant rates charged on shipments of
corn and wheat. Judge Milton Gat-
her at Enid granted the Injunction
sought by General Cromwell and
Special Assistant Charles West, the
present attorney general, and the case

KANSAS CITY
STOCK MARKET
Kansas City Stock Yards, June 24,
1908.—Small receipts of live stock
began to arrive here last Thursday,
and here was a predy good run on
Friday. Rains west, of us late last
week kept the rivers here in a threat-
ening state, and above the danger
ne. This has held down the run to-
day, whidh amounts to 3000 cattle,
5500 hogs and 3000 sheep. There
was a big break in catiile prices at
all tihe markets last week, account
of liberal supplies, especially of
quarantine stuff. The daily newspa-
pers In the big cities all over the
country have exploited the high price
of beef lately - o such an extent that
consumption has been grea'tly cur-
tailed, which, together with 'the
heavy runs, put buyers in a position
to hammer the market successfully.
Prices are steady to 10 lower today,
and whereas a top of $8.00 or be er
would have 'been possible a week ago
for fancy steers, $7.60 would be
ai>oi:t the limit today. Sales of steers
ranged from $5.25 to $(1.90 here to-
day. Cows and heifers are also low-
er today at $3.00 to $6.50. The hog
market opened five "higher, but Im-
proved up to the close, whom sales
averaged 15 higher, top $5.90, bulk
$5.70 > o $5.85. Quality of sheep Is
not very good today, market slow,
choice spring lanVbs worth $6.50,
muttons $4.00 to $5.25. The stock
yards, with the exception of the quar-
antine cattle yards, are In as good
condition as before the late flood,
and all 'the facilities for handling the
stock are In use. The quarantine cat-
tle yards will be in operation in a few

"Struck (ins" Tonight.
Last nig'ht in spite of the rain
there was a goodly crowd present at
he Pavilion Theatre to see "Gee
Whilllker Hay."
"Gee Wh lllker," hs the name sug-
gests was the comedy character and
Mr. Craw ord itf it.he part was excel-
lent. He let no opportunity slip by
which might be turned to account
(or producing a laugh.
Tonight a story of the Oklahoma
gas fields, "Struck Gas," is to be the
offering. "Struck Gas" is a sitory of
a gas well that nearly breaks every-
one conne i ed with It, and refines to
flow, until finally a torpedo Is acci-
dentally dropped In It, which seems
to reach the right s|>ot. The tlda
turns and everyone is soon as rich
as they were formerly poor.
"The Convict's Daughter," Tonight
The rain last night preveni ed Ifhe
Cu hane's Comedians from presenting
the play, "Adrift In New York" at
Jones' A rdome, but It will be pro-
duced Sunday night. Tonight "The
