ENGLISH GRAIN TRADE.

The Withdrawal of the War Expectation
Prop Leaves the Market in Lamentabls
State of Depression Decline In Prices---
SpeculatiOns to the Surplus from
Russia.
LONDON, March 5.-Complete staynaion again on
Monday characterized the silver market. No tran
sactions heard of.
The Mark Lane Ecpress says the peace prospects
the fairly abundant granary stocks and heavy antic
pated arrivals, both from America and Southern
Russia, have combined to reduce the wheat trade to
lamentable state Of depression. During the past
week the inactivity has been such that in the absence
Of saes 1t has been matter Of some difficulty to re-
cord the ducuation In prices. That the withdrawal
OF the prop which the uncertain aspect Of political
matters furnished to the grain trade,
e1a WOULD DEPREss VALUES
was anticipated; but the concession of shilling to
two sillings per quarter has failed to improve the
demand for wheat which might be expected to have
done Having regard to the low state into which the
mlers have allowed their stocks to all over the
kingdom, an explanation is probably to be found In
the fact that supplies i'll prospective are too heavy to
allow the concession offered to have much weight,
and until some definite idea can be formed of the
AMOUNT WHEAT
this country may expect from Odessa Nicoleff aud
other southern Russian ports, miers will only buy
from hand to mouth. That the accumulation OF
grain in the Black Sea ports is large cannot bo
doubted for one moment, but we think . large pro-
portion will be found to consist of low class and

Loss Nearly 100000.

LITTLE Rock, Ark, March "a special to
the Eue1aing Star gives the following partic-
uars Of ohe great fire at that place this morn
ing:
Hot SPRINGS, Ark, March 5.-About 1880
o'clock this morning fire broke ont in
shanty occupied by negro named Grecnlce.
The fire communicated to the French restau-
rant and thence north and south on both sides
Of the street.
ALL THE BUILDINGS ARE BURNED,
north OF Rockafellow's drug store and south
of Malvern crossing. About $50 buildings we're
destroyed and an immense stock of goods. As
there is but one street in the valley, the steam
er was cut off and could afford no relief to the
lower end of town until the flames had been
checked above. Then the horses, firemen and
eng inc r'
DASHED THROUGH THE FLAMES
to the Sumpter house and came around the
avenue and Quinn hill, and are now at eight
o'clock, fighting the fire at the south end Of the
town.
Among the buildings destroyed, are the Hot
Springs, American and Earl hotels the French
restaurant Valley and State banks, post office,
Daily Sentinel office; Huffman and Hamiltons
bath house, Jones Bros & Co., Little. Julius,
Moore Cos. livery stable, Kimball g. Co.,
Knights Of Pythias hall, Brown Il
Co.. Karatousky, Western Union

and Mansiee bath house. It is impossible at
this hour to estimate the loss, but it will be
two or three hundred thousand dollars. The

being carried on without interruption.
NorE.-The above casualty is made of special
interest to the people of this section, from the
fact that Mr.. George W. Moore and wife, Mrs
Thomas Grace and other citizens of
this city and Minneapolis are

B.iFFLED RLaZES,
Croft & Berkey Again Scorched--The Fire
FieDd Quickly Squclched,

At 2:30 o'clock yesterday afternoon fire
alarm was turned in from box "a, to which the
department responded with its usual commend
able alacrity. To parties in the higher parts of
the business portions of the city the fire looked
somewhat alarming, as vast volumes of smoke
were seen ascending in the comparatively still
atmosphere. Consequently, large crowd soon
congregated at the scene of the supposed con-
Hagration which was found to be at the prem
ises, 1876 East Fourth street, corner of Siblcy.
occupied, in the lower portion, by G. NJ. Ben
nett d Co., gas filters and dealers in ranges,
mantles and the like, and by Croft Berkey.
manufacturers and dealers in coffee, spices
baking powders, DC.
To those first assembling it was evident that
the fire had originated in the third story, and
its history and supposed origin may be thus
explained. Bennett d Co. furnish the power
by which the machinery in the building is pro-
PEELED, having the option at any time to cut off
the power when any repairs are needed by the
shafting, which is also under their charge. In
accordance with their notice, the engine was
stopped yesterday and at PIN, workmen
were sent up to the upper floor to attend to
matter connected with the shafting. The me-
chanics had with them candle, and whether
the fire originated from it, or from the half
ignited match by which it was lit, or some
other cause, is now mystery nnsolved. AT
no tlme however, were tne names permitted to
gain respectable headway, and in conse-
quence of two we'll directed streams from front
and rear respectively, the fire was confined to
the third floor. The under set of the double
rafters was charred pretty thoroughly before
the flames were extinguished.
The chief damage was sustained by Croft q
Berkey, which, owing to the perishable charac-
ter of their stock, was attributable to the del
uge of water. Their loss is estimated at from
S4, 600 to $5, 900, which was fully covered by
insurance in the st. Paul Fire and Marine.
Bennett & Co. were also damaged from the
same cause, but not SO extensively. Maxfeld &
Co., in the next building may also have sus-
tanned some injury from smoke.
Croft 4 Berkey, the principal sufferers, will
not be delayed to any account in their opera
tions, and will be in full blast again to-day.
