Gambling Ia grain 10 all the rage In Chica-
no now -adays, and the gamblers have been
wonderfully successful 50 far, sending wheat
up or down Us they choose, During the sum
mer they cornered wheat and got It up to
81 05 d bushel: 1t fell next month as low as
S3e, but In September started up again and
reached ST. 0S. The demand for wheat In
Europe Ia now 80 great In oonsed uence Of the
short European crops that 1t will scarcely be
possible for these grain gamblers to send the
price down again. The increase during the
past month, just as the farmers are sending
their crops to market, is q godsend Il has
been calculated that In consequence OF the
recent rise In the value 81 wheat tho Western
farmers will put some Ss0,o00,00o moro Ia
their pockets than they expected or had any
reason to anticipate.

There are Indications tnat the pedestrian


There are indications that the pedestrian
business is on its last legs. The walk for the
O'Leary belt In New York, which came to an
end yesterday and resulted IN victory for
Murphy by the very respectable score Of sos
miles, did not attract the crowd that was ex-
pected, although the walking was not much
inferior to that exhibited In the last contest
for the Ashley belt. There was fair attend
ance at the finish, 1t Is true, but the manager
will not make fortune, and It Is possible
that he will not do much better than cover
expenses. Since the impression got abroad
that these exhibitions were mere catch-penny
affairs and not real contests OF speed and en-
durance, public interest has begun to flag.
The Ashley belt contest did much to bring
about this gratifying reyulsion OF popular
fee ling. There were charges Of crookedness
Iii connection wi Ii 1t that have not been ex-
planned away, and 1t is not strange that the
general public should begin to suspect that
they have been eupsd

NEW ORLEANS AS A MANUFACTURE
ING CENTRE.

There are so many reasons why New Or
leans should be great manufacturing centre
that it is difficult to select any one of them as
the tttest TO begin with. 1t will perhaps be
appropriate, however, to state the broad gen
eralization that the best place for factory
is at the source OF supply of the raw material.
proceeding from this premise, 1t follows that
New Orleans may safely claim precedence as
the point where cotton. sugar and rice fac
tories can expect the greatest advantages. 1t
stands to reason that 1t is better to manufac-
ture any article upon the ground where 1t is
produced, instead Ut transporting the raw
material over enormous distances to localities
which possess no qualifications except the
solitary one Of capital. But these are argu-
ments which always applied. It has always
been d fact that New Orleans offered larger
inducements as cotton or sugar maniac
turing point than Fall River or Providence or
New York. That proposition has q. 10 time

Mississippi. instead OF by the Red and Mis-
sissIppl as heretofore.
These proposed works, however. IL ever
constructed will cost large sum Of
money; vastly more, probably, than the hum
dred and fifty Thousand dollars which has
been appropriated for tho improvement OF the
mouth Of Red River by Congress-. and In the
meantime Immediate relief Is wanted and
must be obtained. Hons. X. T. Gibson and
j. Floyd King yesterday teegraphed tho sit
uation to the Secretary OF War, and asked
That relief be granted ut once, and Capt 10
seph A. Aiken, president OF the New Orleans
and Rod River Transportation Company, has,
on tho suggestion Of Gen. Gibson, proposed
to remove the bar by means Of q stern wheel
| steamer and two propeller tugs, In the same
manner MS q similar work was done by him
three years ago at nearly the exact point OF
| the present bar. The cost, according TO Capt.
| Aiken. will not exceed ten Thousand dollars,
| and MS soon MS tho proper vessels can be OBJ
