WHEAT TAKES A TgMBLR.

The Bear ElsmenS Growing Strong
 in ChAeago-Dewn Eleven Cents In
 Two Days.
 CHICAGO, Oct. 9.-There was a grand slump in ali the American wheat markets to-day. Before 12 o'clock Duluth had sold of and cents, Minneapolis cents, New York 4 and cents and Chicago 6 and 61z cents, com- pared prices ruling at the close yesterday. There were wild and ragged openings every where. December opened $1.171<a$1. .161< and May $1.10A$1.17, and elsewhere initial trading was at an equally wide range. Had not the trade become accustomed to great fluctuations the shrinkage in values would have been looked upon as calanitous break As it was 1t was accepted almost as a matter of course.
 Itwas difficult to locate the beginning of the break It seemed to start everywhere about the same time. There was liberal sell ing of wheat in every speculative market for long and short account right from the open ing Hutchinson was free seller from the start Schwartz-Dupe and Jones-Kennet figured conspicuously as sellers, the crowd putting this down as being for Fairbanks. The early break carried December down to 114a4 and May to 116. Then there was 8
 
 for time, but it slowly yielded and about Il o'clock made another dip that brought De- cember to 1121< and May to 1132. Novem- Der went to 1121z. On the break large amount of wheat came out on stop orders. but at the bottom the shorts made stand for profits. This gave the market q stronger tone and on the rally that ensued December went to 114L and May to about 11511. There was of course more or less buying for long account on tAe break, but it was not on grand, popular aide.
 The bull spirit has not left the market, but the excitement has very materially toned down of late. The market was fattened out under the pressure of offerings and prices broke back past the inside limits previously reached. This range marks q break in two days of nearly Il cents. A little before the close the market became very weak and the last quotations were at the extreme inside, 1.10M for November, Hi Ia for December and 1.12A for May. The feeling was slunpy and soft at the close, and the bears were in high feather. The weakness lately experi, enced Is felt to an even greater degree in the northwest. As the bulge was bigger and the excitement more intense, so is the reaction more pronounced. The high price induced good selling, and wheat is piling into Minne- apolis faster than 1t can be handled. Re- ports are to the effect that 21 ,000 cars of wheat are on the track in Minneapolis at this writing, and that receipts for the next two weeks or months will be limited only by the transportation facilities.

DICKINSON Ns wERs BLAINE.

But He Gives No Figures-He Calls Him Names and Promises to Talk Again Sometime.
 BOSTON, Oct. "A representative of the Boston Herald called upon Postmaster Gene- ral Dickinson to-day in Washington and said to hina: "Have you seen MT. Blaine's reply to your western speech on New England?
 "I want to ask in all serioqsness, said MT. Dickinson, "whether MT. Blaine is well. His statements out west have been extra- ordinary on every subject. There is more than . touch of Don Quixote de la Mancha in some of his rhetorical ca pers. With dozens of excellent speeches on the issues of the campaign urgently call ing for replies from representative statesmen this suncrowned king of debaters incoher- snsIy belabors speech which he says have delivered through the West. The speech | only exists in his imagination. The knight of the sorrewful figure tilting at the wind I mill was not more grotesque and pitiable." ! Here is something else he stated In Michl- | gan: Referring to wood pulp, he said: It is 8 cabinet affair. Dickinson and Secretary | Bayard's son own the patents, and right there \ lies the free trade joke of the season. Wood \ pulp was on the free list, but has now been placed on the protected schedule. It IS an | industry which should be protected 1t seems, | even if it does put Cleveland's cabinet in rsther an anomalous position. Now dc not even know Secretary Bayard's son and l of course have no interests with him 1 It MT, Blaine were quite well the only reply ! I would make to this charge, that of Horace Greeley to the county editor, iaconlcally | impugning the latter's veracity in good An
 glo- Saxon. The plumed knight should pu1 on the line helmet and have Sancho Panzs
 to go about with him. When do make {
 speech, as shall, shall have something
 further to nay about MT. Blaine if he get
 well enough"

KarIx Aaiournment Probable.

WASHINGTON. Oct. 9.-Aa informal con ference of Republican Senators was held this morning to talk over the general situation. and more especially to arrange the course of debate on the tariff bill. The results were meagre, owing to the doubt everywhere en- tertained whether a quorum of the Senate can be held in Washington should the tariff debate be protracted beyond next week. The desire of number of Senators is to get away Is very strong, and, with the system of pairs prevailing in the Senate and always rigidly adhered to, every absentee reduces the vot- ing force by two. In considering these mat ters it became apparent that there would be great difficulty in keeping a voting quorum to act upon amendments and finally upon the bill. No action was taken in the conference and no definite policy was sketched. but there is reason to believe that if the Senate finds itself for any length of time without 6 quorum, either an adjournment sine die or rscesss16r several weeks will be taken. 1t therefore now seems probable that this ses- sion will practically come to an end next week or early the week after, and that the tariff bill will be left for final action after election day.

POLO.
What Was Done at the Meeting Of the Hartford stockholders LasG Night.

What Was Done at the Meeting Of the
 Hartford stockholders Last Night.
 HARTFORD, Oct. 9.-The Hartford Amuse- ment company held meeting tonight to decide the fate of polo in this oity. A report wss made that the First regiment armory could not be secured. A proposition was ad varoed by certain directors for the erection of building to cost $15, ,000 or SEQ, 900 to be completed within the next sixty days. This proposition was antagonized by some of the stockholders who felt that it would be better to distribute the g, 300 now in the treasury. It was voted to give the directors power to go ahead and do what they deem best. This gives 6 favorable look to polo matters in this city and really means that new rink will be built.
 There is one question yet to be settled and that is how the money will be raised. All the stockholders cannot stand being assessed pro rata and few will have to put in the bulk of the money to increase the capital stock. These men hardly feel that they de- sire to put in this money if the other stock holders have as much to say about the man. agement of the team as they. It looks as if there would be freezing out" of some of the stockholders, as there are now too many.
