THE MARKETS.

CHICAGO, June 25-Rodiger & Co.'S mar
ket letter of this evening says: The week
opened cold and cloudy, and the nervousness
OF the bears caused slight advance in prices
before the opening as compared with those of
Saturday. The opening sales for all grain
were the highest at the board, and prices
steadily declined under very severe hammer
ing of the bears and free sales fer outside so
count. July wheat opened at S1o41s,
sold down TO $l92ia, and the later
options suffered in prol o. ton The bears
went fairly i'll on their mus1ie
and finding no resistance from the bulls, kept
hammering the market as long as it would
yield The decline to-day has. brought us
upon a basis which will allow freer export
of wheat if prices abroad will hold under the
pressure on this side. We hear of about $780,
0tO bushels having been taken for export in
New York today. On the call this after
noon the market was steady, with good de-
many for August wheat. Come of our prom
inent bears, white ostensibly hamnering the
market, were liberal buyers to-day
Corn declined about a cent, but more in
sympathy with wheat than owing to any in
trinsic weakness.
Oats continued heavy; July declining from
Ssh to $3.50 but the impression is gaining
ground that prices are about low enough
While pork was steady and did not partici-
pate in the general decline, lard was weak

facing his enemy, with his head and
shoulders above tho surface. With

the monster, and when his Jaws came
down the swimmer dived away, leav-
ing the knife in the mouth OF the
reptile, transfxing both Jaws and
locking them together. At this junct-
ure the animal fret seen was rapidly
approaching but the swimmer soon
reached the shore, and, by means OF
a rife soon made victims of both.

As soon as the matter got abroad

TILDEN AND HANCOCK.

Hon. W. II. BARNUM, chairman of
the Democratic National Committee
has been interviewed in relation to
the charge made by one BIREsALL.
OF Connecticut, and printed in the
Hartford Courant that Mr.. TILDEY,
din't support General HANCOCK in
1880 Mr. Barnum states, not only
was Mr.. TILDEE hee from apy
disappointment IN not being nomin.
ated himself, but be was consulted
beforehand in respect to General
HANCOCK 8 nomination. Mr.. BARNuM
teIegrsPbed to him on the subject
and he answered that the choice Of
General HANCOCK would be agreeable
TO him. When the nomination was
made Mr.. BAREUM telegraphed the
tact to Mr.. TILDEE, and he answered
congratulating Mr.. BARNUM upon
the result. Chairman BARNUM fur
Jher states that Mr.. TILDEN cana
down from the country TO preside at
The great HANCOCK meeting in the
city OF New York, in order to pivs
the full weight Of his influence 20 the
starting ol General HANcocg 8 cam
paign Also that be was freauentl0
resorJed to by the National Commit.
tee and the State Committee. and
on all occasions cordially co-opeTat
ed with them. As to the assertion
Of BIRDsALL that Mr.. TrLDEN did
not contribute TO the Democratic
campaign tund, Mr.. BARNum ssva
the statement IS unqualffedly false
that Mr.. I1LDEN gave the Nationa,
Committee has cheyk for $25 600
that the check was made to the order
of the then acting treasurer OF the
committee the Hon. WILLIAM l.
SCOTT, and by him paid over 90 the
treasurer, Mr.. CHARLES j. CAEDA
and Mr.. T1LDEN stands creIited
with that sum on the treasurer
books. This ought TO silence a cor
temptible piece OF political oalumnv
Register.

GAMBLING ar SARATOGA
INC extraordinary Passion FOR PooIS
-imong the Ladies.

Speaking of the ladies on the grand
stand. | may add that the mania
here for betting is quite widespread
among the ladies'. The mania is like
a mild and favorable attack of the
measles There 10 just enough fever
to make one sympathetic but moth
ing sufficiently serious to cause alarm.
l noticed among the fair gamblers
yesterday an old lady who ls pretty
we'll known in New York society!
She wears her silver hair under a
black lace bonnet, ond is altogether
an interesting study. Her genial
face fairly beams on the French pool
seller as che asks him IN coaxinc
tone which horse he would advise
her to put her money on. The pool
seller gives her his opinion, but de-
clares that of course he cannot tell
which will win. We'll replied the
old lady, i will put So on the horse
which you think will win and away
goes the rool seller to find other
buyers.
There is one interesting trio. who
generally sit near me. who have
everything connected with the races
at their fingers ends-or think they
have. One ia fine looking woman,
the wife OF rich Western man who
came to New York last winter. and
setting up an establishment, began to
elbow her way good -humoredly into
society. The second is a slight .pret-
ty little woman, who is something of
II Bohemian, but who knows a great
many good people in New York aud
has helped her Western friend ma
terialIy in her designs. The third is
vigorous looking old lady. with
flashing black eyes and oorkscrew
curIs, whose gains or losses have no
power to brighten or cloud her good
humored face. There are two out.
slders to this group Of three. One
is middle-age lady, awfully anx.
ious to win but dreadfully afraid to
loose, who hutters about her more
experienced companions in fever of
anxiety. While they Pot in their
tens and twenties with nonchalance
she doles out her dollar bills with
trembling fingers and nervous air.
The other outsider is a Western mil
ionaire, a jolly looking man who
irots back and forth to the pool sell
lers and does all the buying for his
wife and her companions. He does
not seem to care about betting him.

all her movements with rough fond
