CHICAGO, Feb. 1S.-To-day's cables were
depressed and lower. This helped the bears
and they gave the bulls another shaking up,
as I prophesied on Saturday. In fact, the
latter birds didn't show up to-day. The indi.
cations all point to still lower prices, and
while there may be some little reaction after
the down turn, all have been having it would
be only temporary, as there is no legitlmat,
demand for wheat at present prices, and thu
prospects are fine for growing crops and early
seeding. So down she must go. On the curl,
March wheat sold at $1.23X, and April
$l.24h.
Corn was lower, with moderate business
The receipts are smaller and If they don't In
crease doubt If we have much more decline.
Provisions held very steady, and without
new features the close on call was $l8.421 for
April pork, and $l1.22X for April lard.
A couple of small houses, who were "long
wheat" laid down to-day. but owing to their
being very diminutive they had no effect on
the market.

AN IMPORTANT CASE
Decided In the Supreme Court Of 1
United States.

Decided ia tic supreme Court OA thc
United States.
WASHINGTON, DC, April IA decision
which involves well known parties and a
large amount OF money, was given by the
Supreme Court to-day il the case OF Her
man Blennerhassett, W. a. Stephens and
the Charter Oak Life Insurance company
against Hoyt Sherman, assignee OF 3. F.
Allen, appeal from the Circuit court of the
United States for the District, OF Iowa.
This was suit brought by the appellants
as members and assignees of the. firm OF
Allen, Stephens & Co., of New York city,
to forclose mortage given to said firm by
3. L. Allen, who was also one OF its mem
bers, as security for an alleged indebted
ness OF about 100000.
Soon after executing the mortgage B. +.
Allen became insolvent and went into
bankruptcy. His assignee i'll bankruptcy,
acting in behalf of his creditors other than
Allen, Stephens & Co., resists the foreclO-
sure proceedings, on the ground that they
are part of an attempt tO-defraud such
other creditors by corrupt transfer OF
property lust previous to his insolvency.
This court holds that the mortgage which
the appellants seeks to foreclose is fraud
upon the creditors of Allen, and is void
ut common law, and that the conduct
of the mortgages show them to be without
claim to the consideration of n Court OF
Equity. On the contrary it clearly appears
to be the duty of the Court to take care
that they shall not reap the fruits of their
fraudulent practices. The-assignee mortgage
of the Charter Oak Life Insurance stands
in no stronger position. The decree of the
Circuit Court is affirmed with costs. Opinion
by Justice Woods.

nand. Sales: 524a5Sc May; 51a52c June;
46ka46sc July. On call, sales were 215 600
