BRITISH GRAIN MARKET.

LONDON, Aug. 1.-THE Mark Lane Erpress,
in its weekly review of the corn trade says
Intense dry tropical heat prevailed since
August 1, and harvest work proceeded rap
idly. Grain matured in an exceptionally
good form. All the earliest wheats are now
in perfect milling condition. Barley and
oats vary; in some districts they are excel
lent. in others poor. Spring beans appear
to be an absolute failure. The potato crop
viii unlikely prove large, but will be freer
from disease than for many years. Through
out the past week new wheats made their ap-
pearance in the various markets in a condi-
ton described as somewhat phenomenal.
New wheats are quoted 36s@40s for reds and
AS for whites per quarter Sales of En-
glish wheat during the week, 29,75S quar-
tiers at BIS Cd, against 35, 131 quarters at 43s
Cd the corresponding week last year. The
trade in foreign whcats is checked by sun
shine, and the present symptoms indicate a
rapid subsistence of values to level hitherto
unknown. The present position of trade
will strengthen the argument of those who
claim the production of wheat throughout the
world in late years has been increasing on
ratio exceeding the ratio of consumption.
Wheat in London and Liverpool is irregu-
larly cheaper, oats I'D lower, maize firmly
held in London, barley remains unchanged.
The trade in cargoes off coast is literally
drled up under the blazing sunshine. There
was only one sale. Eleven cargoes arrived,
eight were withdrawn and five remain. The
trade forward is virtually NIL

NEW YORK.
Especial TELEGRAM to the Globe. !

New YORK, Aug. 11.-As usual during the
summer season, the stock exchange did not
open until II O'Clock this morning, and the
announcement which was posted on the door
of the Wall Street National bank, that, owing
to the Irregularities on the part of the cashier,
the bank would remain closed until matters
could be investigated, had become generally
known. The opening prices on the ex-
change were generally to X per cent.
lower than the fna. quotations on Saturday,
but sustaining orders were not wanting, es-
peeially for the active stocks, and during the
forenoon most of the early declines were re-
gained. This afternoon the market has
again been weak, without any special feature
other than the development of this morning
and the announcement this afternoon that
the earnings of the Northwestern railroad
for the first week in August show
a falling off of over $50, 600 as
compared with last year. The extreme de-
clines this afternoon have ranged from to
2 per cent part of which has been recov-
cred in the last half hour The market is
feverish and unsettled, with evidence OF sup
pOIlluS OENStS lEOtu strung houses anu q nat
ural disposition to decline. 1t is stated that
the Trunk line arbitrators have forwarded
their decision in the matter of percentages to
Commissioner Fink. with request to have
it promulgated at once and the Grand Trunk
percentage is smaller than that recommended
by Mr.. Fink. There is no appeal from the
decision of the arbitrators. The coal COM
pauies have agreed to suspend mining oper-
atoms during the first week in Septem Der.
Mr.. oliphant. for many years viee-president
OF the Delaware & Hudson Canal company,
has been elected president in place of Mr..
Dickson, deceased.
In reviewing the market Boodv, Mcclellan
& Co. say: ''The announcement of the fail
ure of the Wall Street bank before business
commenced was sufficient to insure weak

very irregular. The first sale Of Central &
Hudson was 2 per cent. below the closing
figure of last week. There was considerable

The DAYTON Soldiers Home.

DAYTON, O., Aug. IL The Soldiers home
investigation committee has taken all the
testimony for the prosecution and to-day
began the defense. The sergeants of the
barracks testified that the men were not
treated harshly, were not punished unjusty,
did not complain of personal punishment
and none were sent to the dump unjustly
Men often came in drunk and were sent
quietly to bed, but if remained out over their
pass time they were put on the dump for
thirty days. Some officials were more harsh
than necessary, but very few. The dump
work consisted in picking up debris on
the campus. The liberty of the home
grounds were given them, but were not al
lowed pass, when once abused, for several
months. The quarantine quarters, where in
corrigible, insane and epileptics sleep, was
the same as the other barracks, and under
the care of u kind-hearted sergeant There
was chance for minor officials to vent per-
sonal spite, and often used Gov. Pattuck
was gruif, but kind-hearted. The soldiers
felt lack of sympathy, and feared strict dis
eipline. Punishment for infraetion of rules
was sure, but seldom fell on innocent heads
The burden of complaint came from a few
men from each of the barracks, probably 500
grumbers. These infected the well behaved
with an uneasy feeling the weak-minded were
misguided, and some complaining came
from them. The stories of cruelty and bru-
tality were denied. Men relating such stories
were generally unreliable and imagined
wrongs. General Cutcheon called attention
to the stories of terror spread by the press
through the country and said the testimony
had not substantated it. General Slocum
said ''This garden spot of America is
painted as q penitentiary, many papers cali
ing it Andersonville. thereby influencing the
soldiers who would like to come to remain
away. One mile square of land,

away who desired to come, all because of

by reliable testimony. If such be the action
of the press, God spare me. from its clutches

paradise awaits well behaved men, and their

clothing, and square mile of parks, beauti-
fed by nature and with buildings, wherein

date fOr-MaYOr.
snecial Telegram to the Glob


SARATOGA, Aug. 11.-There is but little
news to relate in regard to the doings of the
various political leaders stopping here.
Kelly, the Tammany chief, remains locked
in his room at the Grand Union most of the
time, and refuses to see anyone except his
most intimate friends and adher-
ents. The Hon. Thomas F. Grady
spends considerable time in Kelly's
company, but is very close mouthed, and
refuses to talk with any one in regard to the
course Tammany will pursue in regard to the
coming canvass. 1t fact, he refuses to dis
cuss politics in any shape or form.
The report that Kelly wants the second
place on the Butler ticket is not believed.
Mr.. Kelly is also reticent and refuses to say
anything in regard to politics, except
that Tammany must decide for
itself at the meeting of the society
next month as to what course 1t will pursue.
1t is said that one of the measures to be
adopted to bring about the healing process
between Tammany and the Clevelandite is
the acceptance of Judge Hilton as the COM
promise candidate for the mayoralty of New
York. Buffers candidacy does not appear
to trouble Cleveland men in the least They
say the general will start off with great hur-
rah, but before election day his boom will
have petered out and nothing will come

MILWAUKEE,.
lspecinl Telegram to the Glohs


MILWAUKEE, Aug. 11.-Wheat opened de-
cidedly weak at the morning board under the
influence of liberal receipts of winter wheat
at southern markets with rumors of new
financial troubles in Wall street. One bank
failure was reported from New York early in
the day. The foreign markets, too, were
heavy, Beerbohm quoting London at shil-
lings and Liverpool at 1 penny per
GENITAL lower for all grades off
coast. The weather in England is
hot and forcing, while in the northwest mod
erately heavy rains have fallen the past few
days. Receipts are fair, but large shipments
reduced the stock in store considerably. No.
2 spring seller September opened at 1890
and declined to 1880. October ranged at
1c above September, opening at s0slc, re-
ceding to s05sc, rallying to s0$lc, falling
back to S05sc and toward noon rising to
S01Ic. Between 12 and 1 O'Clock wheat
fuctuated considerably, September jumping
from 791lc to S016c and in ten minutes
time dropped back and even sold as low as
roc. This was equal to 7Sc for cash-the
lowest price known on the board for many
years. There was no export demand to-day
The dealings, owing to the fluctuations were
quite large, as they usually are when there is
a marked advance or decline. The stock
market is weak.

market during the greater portion of the
session and speculative trading was quite
active, The deal in short ribs attracted the
most attention. Commencing at $3.50 for
Septemberit climbed right up to S9.35, anG
at the close was quite steady at 1926. There
seemed to be general desire to buy and
Cudahy d Steeners are spoken of as having
pursued the course usual with them of late
and taken their full share of all the ribs
offered.
Lard was also higher, but not so active. The
September option opened at s7.371S and
closed at the same figure on the morning
board and at s7.40 on the afternoon board,
where the feeling was somewhat stronger.
At one time during the morning session
lard was quoted at s7,5211. This was when
ribs were at their zenith and they both fell off
together.
Every one was disappointed in the extent
Of the supply of cattle. 1t was little more
than half as large as some had predicted.
The effect upon prices was apparent in the
general stitfening. Buyers entered the
yards this morning with the expectation OF
buying cattle cheaper, but they soon aban-
doned that idea. After a slack opening
trade became active and before
noon most of the stuff had
changed hands. Shipping grades sold
10c higher than at the close of last week and
stockers and butchers stuff also found buy
ers at stronger figures. Texans of which the
run was very light, showed more decided
change than did native. They were in active
canning and shipping demand, and the
limited offerings were quickly disposed Of
at an advance of 15@25c, Six loads Of good
ones, averaging ,031 pounds sold at SIS. 1t
was said S4.75 would have been a good
price for them Saturday. Poor to fair grades
were quoted at S3.25@4.60. The demand
for stockers continues far ahead of the sup
ply, and prices are higher than they have
beeh since early in July. They are quoted
at SO. 50(04.50 for common to prime ones,
while feeders sell at 81. .55@4.75 and even
higher in some cases.
Trade in the hog market opened in an ac
tive way at prices showing but slight varia-
ton from those current on Saturday. The
packers were acting as mulish ever, but
an outlet was found for all the merchanta-
BILE hogs, and without sacrificing prices; in
deed, in many instances sellers got a little
more money than obtained for similar grades
last Saturday, and no class of hogs sold any
cheaper. The early sales were largely to
scalpers, but the bulk Of the stuff ultimately
found its way into packers hands
''The receipts,'' said Mr.. Abe Poole,
''broke the market. Wheat is marvelously
cheap, but there is a total absence of outside
speculative orders. The whole trade is of
scalping order, and as the scalpers are all
local traders, and as all
local traders are constitutional bears, the
market is depressed rather than advanced.
the prospect is to my mind that unless some
big professional produce spectators come in
and advance prices they will decline. Out
siders never come in while prices are low.
They wait until they are advancing"

MIR. BEEcHER SATISFIED.

After Gen. King had concluded his re-
searches he called on Mr.. Beecher at Peeks-
kill, where he related the result of his visit
to Buffalo and Albany. Mr.. Beecher said he
had been wrongfully made to mistrust Gov.
Cleveland and that now he could not do too
much to show his appreciation of the man.
Eighteen copies of the Buffalo Telegraph con-
tanning the stories had been mailed to him
from different parts of the country, besides
letters from the man Ball and others.
1.-The whole matter,'' said the general,
"having been explained to Mr.. Beecher's
satisfaction, he will now support the gov
ernor, as the foolish peccadilloes of young
man committed fourteen or fifteen years ago
will not weigh against his present life and
