CHICAGO, April 24.-The opening scenes
on Change this morning were common
place, and prices were a shade easier
early. AS the day advanced the wheat
market began to improve, and prices rose
steadily, the advance for the day being
fully 81 cents, the market closing very
firm.
Trading was on an enormous scale, but the
confidence of the bull crowd carried eVerv-
thing before it, and June wheat, which touch
ed S934c at one time early in the day, could
not be bought for 93I9c. after the close of the
afternoon call board, and outside sales were
rumored at 9lc. This condition of affairs put
the bears very nearly in panic, as trading has
been unusually heavy for the past three
weeks, and the short interest is supposed to be
a very large one. Trading is mainly in the
June option, though July is beginning to be
dealt in heavily. The market opened l3(g34c.

TILDEN GOSSIP.
Is the old Man Nursing His BOOM

Is the Old Man Nursing His Boom?
WASHINGTON, April 24.-It is a matter
OF considerable comment here that in but
one of his many interviews with curious
visitors, has Mr. Tilden beea reported as
saying anything about the tariff. In Gen.
GordOn's talk with him, he is reported to
have said that the tariff should not be I'M
duly agitated. Mr.. Tilden's silence on the
subject is taken by observing politicians to
be very strong evidence that, t,nOtWithstand-
ing his repeated "refusals," he really
wants the Presidential nomination. 1t is
argued that were he not a candidate he
would have no hesitancy in speaking his
mind freely on the tariff. He would add
his influence to either one side or the other
in the pending agitation Of the subject.
But not wanting to lose strength in any
quarter he does not define his tariff posi-
ton. 1t is, therefore, argued that Mr..
Tilden is as sagaciOus as ever in looking
after any boom in which he has a pro-
prietary right.
