The $40 feast includes eight con-

served in ten courses. The $50 repast is
dyspeptically elaborate. 1t consists OF
twenty.four courses, starting with a mosaic
of preserves and candied fruits and termi-

Wheat Falls Slightly on News From Across

Wheat Falls Slightly on News From Across
the Ocean.
CuCAGO, February 26.-The traders in
wheat on Change have been in a panic this
morning. May wheat which had fallen to
81 yesterday, opened this morning at 8Of,
rallied somewhat, advancing to 8O3, then
broke off sharply amid great excitement to
so cents. The excitement in the pits ex'
ceeded anything known in months and only
the presence Of buying orders and heavy
coverings of shOrts.steadied the market at
that figure Other markets are steady and
firm. The heavy decline is ascribed to the
action of the French assembly imposing a
heavy import duty on American grain.
There was some free buying OF wheat at
80 cents for May delivery, some Of which is
supposed to have been for long account.
A large number OF outside orders having
been received. Under this impulse the mar
ket advanced to 8Osc, but heavy offerings
again caused the prices 20 break to SOLE, at
which figure the market is now resting.
Other markets are a shade better, but
steady and prices show no appreciable
change.
Wheat has again rose to 500 for May, but
again fell back to SOi on the announcement
bv the secretary of the board that all trades
with Price 4 Co. must be sold out. The
liabilities of the suspended firm are not
stated but are not thought to be large.

PROFOUND SURPRISE
Created by President-Elect Cleveland's
Reply to the Silver Men.


Reply to the Silver Men.
WASHINGTON, February 26.-President-
elect Cleveland's reply to the silver men has
created profound surprise among supporters
fearful Of the divisions that it may produce
in the Democratic party, as we'll as in all
probability necessitate an extra session Of
Congress-
This is predicated on the threats that are
made by the extreme silver men that the
coinage shall not be interfered with without
thorough discussion on the subject, and this
everybody here knows cannot be done with
out endangering several Of the most import
ant appropriation bills.
Conservative Democrats regret exceed
ingly the President.elect's attitude on this
question at this particular time, when the
party is largely divided on the subject.
Speaker Carlisle, who has carefully read
the letter of Cleveland, says 1t is very able
presentation Of his side OF the case, and if
there was more time to give it considera-
ton, it would no doubt lead 10 wise legisla-
ton on the subject. The silver men on the
other hand, are indignant and many OF
them go so far as to say that Clevelauds
letter naturally invites a conflict be.
fore his administration is even Inaugural
ted They say that his action is un.
precedented, and further say that
his reasons for insisting upon legislation at
this late day Of the session is calculated to
create unnecessary alarm in financial cir
cles, the very thing he should avoid, and the
country is lily prepared for it at this time.
As one Of the effects, the silver men are
more determined than ever in resisting any
legislation by this Congress on the subject.
Those who know President-elect Cleveland,
but are independent OF his fayors, say that
his attitude on this subject only illustrates
the selfwill Of the man, and his utter disre-
gard of all other considerations, once his
mind is made up on any great subject.
Hopeful.
The River and Harbor men have not
abandoned hope of securing the passage of
their bill, but the opponents OF the measure
are confident oftheir ability of preventing
its consideration. Speaker Carlisle, in al
luding to the matter TO his Kentucky friends,
said he did not see how action could be pro-
cured, and that he regarded the bill as vir-
tuGlly dead. Ths friends of the measure
since last night hsye had several conferences
and intend to seize every opportunity to
bring the measure again before the new
House. They are willing to make eonces.
sions to their opponents who failed to get
their appropriations in. thus hoping TO Sc
cure enough to be a ilibustering minority.

BosTON, February Pa New York

him in good spirits and keenly alive to all

Mr.. Blaine, he said, seemed in excellent
health. He told me he was going to

which it is fair to infer that by that time he
will have finished the second volume of his
book.
