CHICAGO, July 31.-Although tn e
markets were very active and unsettled
to-day, and were made still more 80 by
the uncertain weather, there was less
excitement than would naturally be
expected with the elimination OF the
three great corners in wheat, corn and
oats. No. 2 spring wheat was the most
active and exciting of all the markets
and the bidding was lively for that
scarce article.
The "bulls" had steadily refused ten
ders of No. 2 red wheat, higher grade.
and demanded the full pound of flesh,
The closing price of Saturday, $1.34
was advanced after a few settlements
made early in the day to S1.36, then
dropped back for prudential reasons to
Sl.32, at which many settlements were
effected; then by leaps it again reached
$1.36, where it stayed until the closing
hour, after which for ten minutes al
lowed for trading the shorts trantically
bid that figure and one or two made the

keIics from the Mall.

Workmen we're engaged this morn
ing in tearing out the platform, &C.,
In the auditorium of the City Hall, pre-
paratory to fitting 1T up rs police
court. Pieces Of the material were
eagerly sought after, by persons who
delight in preserving relics, as they are
very old. The nails and screws in the
woodwork are handmade and were
made in Wilmington years ago, at an
old blacksmith shop in the southernpart
of the city. President Pierce and the
late Judge Clayton have occupied the
stand in years gone by, which makes
the woodwork more valuable. Stans-
bury Murray was on the lookout and
succeeded in procuring piece of the
wood together with several nails and
screws and are quite curiosity. He
now has them on exhibition at his va.

iron manufacturer here, who does not
desire his name entioned in the mat

| ing had been reached among mill own

ment that will be started on this plan is

morrow.
Should the experiment succeed the re,
other mills will follow as fast as possi-
BILE until all of them are in oper alton.

difficulty in getting sufficient number
Of non-unionists to do all the work that
would be required. Most of them will
be drawn from the East.

termined to stick out for their original
demand, and feel confident of success
They state that 23 mills have resu med
