ANOTHER RAID.
Wheat Cornerers Again Attempt Il
Run Up Prices.
Scenes Of Great Excitement on
the Exchange.
December Wheat Opens at an Advance,
but Rallies Slightly.

All sorts OF contradictory rumors were
ntlont this morning among the brokers at the
Produce Exchange before the opening of tho
wheat market. The one which gained gen
eral credence was that "Oid Hutch" still
had the Chicago market by the throat and
was ready to re-enact ut the close of the pres
ent month the scenes which marked the last
few days of September on the floor Of the
Chicago Board of Trade.
Although he has realized enormous profits
on his deal and has been selling a big line of
his long wheat he stands ready TO buy it all
in again on every break. He squeezed his
victims to the utmost but he knew enough
not TO ruin them as 1t was III his. power to do,
and at the present time he is Only, laying his
traps to catch n new crop of lambs.
The general opinion this morning was that
his influence was still potential in the mar
ket, and that the result of his manipulations
would he that for several weeks Mt least the
trade would be i'll an extremely unsettled
condition.
Not a single one of the brokers who came
on the floor previous to the opening could
know where they stood, and their only pro-
lection was to receive any business from
" outsiders" unless the most liberal margins
! We're put up and kept up.
No orders would be taken this morning

increase as the hour for opening approached,
and advices were received from Chicago that
curb quotations showed an advance of half n
cent over last nights closing prices. 81, 10
for December contracts, and a very bullish
tendency manifested by the crowd.
The gallery overlooking the Board room
was crowded tntee deep with spectators, who
wanted to see n repetition of yesterdays
scenes. Just at the opening there was n
furry and their anticipation may have been
realized so far, but there was more business
done yesterday in five minutes than during
the entire forenoon to-day.
Almost all the dealings were in December
wheat, which opened ut 81 Ii. an advance of
one-hnlf cent. but receded quickly to 81. 1iI%,
and it remained during the forenoon at
about that level, fluctuating between this
figure and 81. l4}9. Chieaso,- meanwhile, had
opened at $1.13 for December and advanced
to ~. IA. but soon after the opening il broke
to 81. 12a. The Chicago market was much
more unsettled than in New York, and the
dial was kept in n state of almost continual
motion, SO rapid and wide were the fluctua-
tons.
IN steadiness of New York surprised nj
most every one, and ii was plainly due to the
absence of any heavy orders in the market.
When the break came it was reported TO be
in consequence of the unloading by Wall
street houses.

President Trenton Fair. place, and the people
who wore them appeared to be the only per-
sons present who were really comfortable.
The management of the fair have deter
mined that there shall be no liquor selling
on the grounds, and Detective Gregory is the
first to gain the $50 reward for arresting q
yiolator of the law in the person of q bar
tender named Laird.
Belva A. Lockwood was q great attraction,
and in a short address at the woman's pavil-
ion, in which she maintained the doctrine OF
equal rights between the sexes, with great
vIgor and earnestness, she held the close ut
tention of several thousand people, q major
ity of whom attended with an idea OF guylnS
the amplO OF WOmen's nights.
A great feature of the fair Is the extensive
exhibition of fancy work to which the ladies'
for miles around have contribute cd the pro-
duct of their clever brains and deft fingers.
Ladies never tire of this department, with
its embroidery, luces. hand-pninted work, &c.
Another of the centres of attraction Is the
show made by Mr.. L. b. Sterling, one. of the
most ardent collectors of stamps, COINS and
bric-a-brac i'll the country. Among his col.
lection are two of the tea stamps which broke
the patient American camels back and pre-.
cipitnted the Revolutionary war:
A section only of Comanche Bills " Wild
West" party gave n performance Yesterday,
but the entire party of cowboys and Indians
is promised to-day.
The trials of speed are still the most inter,
esting features of the show. The 2. % and
2.45 classes yesterday were won in three
straight heats, but the thirty" pacing race
was more exciting. Four heats were divided
among three horses. and the race was ther
left to be completed to-day.
To-day's race programme is even more in
viting than that or yesterday, including the
81" and "27" trotting classes, and the
" IS PAGERS. Among the entries are Barbara
Wilkes, Allen Maid, Ulster Belle, El Monarcl
and n half dozen more of the fastest side
wheelers " in the country.
Gov. Green is expected to lend himself 81
an attraction at the fair to-day.

The Forged Document Frank Charges Re-
coil ON the Republican, Heads.
The attempt of the Republicans to attack
and ridicule the campaign work of the Dem
ocratic National and State committees has
utterly failed.
1t is now charged that q Republican clerk
in Station L. wrapped up a package of DEM
ocratic documents and forged the frank of S.
). Cox. The Republican clerk then exposed
the forgery with n view of tlro wing the
blame on one of the Democratic committees.
The Republican committees have for
weeks been using the franks of Senators
Quay and Chandler to scatter Republi-
can newspapers and dodgers among the
voters of this city aud Brooklyn and
it is more than likely that the parties respon-
sible for the abuse of the franking privilege
will be arrested. The authorities ut Wash
ington have ordered an investigation.
The headquarters of the Democratic
state Committee mt the Hoffman House
were thronEed to-day. Chairman Muir
tina thinks that the attempt of
Democratic traitors 20 array the
National and State tickets against each other
will result i'll a boomerang. He md the other
members of the committee are convinced
that Thomas G.. Plat and q few renegade
Democrats are behind the petition which
calls upon Democrats to knife David Il. Hill.

is not much use paying any attention to il. "

THE SUGAR TRUST AGAIN.
ANOTHER BIG REFINERY SHUTS DOWN
UNDER IT'S ORDERS.

Six Hundred More men In WILLIAMSBURG
Added to Lnbor's Unemployed Army
! Meu with Wives and Children to Look
After sec Long and Hopeless Winter
Months Staring Them In the Face.
Six hundred more men were sent on their
weary journey in search of work last night.
Theodore A. Havemeyer's order TO close De
Castro d Donner's other sugar refinery, on
North Third street, was carried into effect,
and now there are about nine hundred men
in williamsburg out of employment.
1t was with dismal forebodings that the
men marched up to the Office to receive their
mites. 1t was abou 8 O'Clock when the book
keeper in the dingy old Office began to pay
the men. AS each man stepped up lie received
the envelope containing his ~wages-less a
goodly portion deducted as beer money-and
was told that he was no longer needed. 1t
was useless for him to inquire when work
would be resumed, for if he did he was in
sultingly told TO " get out of the Office and
don't bother me-"
To many of these men President Have
meyers order means a long period of idle
ness, and perhaps starvation. Some of the
men will obtain work in the malt-houses,
breweries, or on the Long Island Rail
road; but there is a large number
who won't. Those who remain idle will lie

ness is resumed in the Spring, and then they
will pay their debts. and ut the end of the
season they will be as bad oil us they are

hands together as he told his story to HE

OF course, the officers of the Sugar Trust
say that the closing of these retineries is
owing to an overplus of stock, but if that is
so. why are they putting up n new building
in Greenpoint at a cost of several hundred
thousand dollars?
People well informed as to the Trusts

A CHINESE WOMAN IN COURT.
Mrs. All Dock Tells Justice Patterson of nm
Alleged Robbery.

NeS"
There are three full blooded Chinese
women in this city, and one of them was be-
fore Justice Patterson. at the Tombs Police
Court, this morning.
Her name is All Dock. She was complain
ant against Bertha Lee, the wife Of a China
man, and Patrick Hayes, otherwise known as
Din Key" Hayes, q Sixth Ward ruffian.
The Chinese woman alleged that the pair
entered her apartments on the fourth floor,
rear, at 70 Mott street, at 11.30
o'clock last night. The woman seized her by
the throat and held her, while the mau broke
open d trunk IN the room and stole So.
Then, as they. Were about to escape, the
Chinese woman shouted for help, and Police
man John j. O'Brien, of the Elizabeth street
station. responded and took the alleged rob-
bers into custody.
Mrs. Dock had no witnesses, but showed
in corroboration of her story blue marks
around her neck, which she said were caused
by the woman's fingers.
According to the story told by the defend
ants, the woman. Bertha Lee, appeared ut
the rooms of the Society for the Prevention
of Cruelty 10 Children three days ago. and
Informed Supt. Jenkins that on Jan. 10, 1887,
she surrendered her child. Mary, aged two
| wears. to Mrs. Dock, 10 bring up as her own.
Hearing, however, that Mrs. Dock was 10 re-
turn TO China, Mrs. Lee wanted her child
back again.
Inc Chlnese woman refused to give up the
child. having kept it for eighteen months
without compensation, and Mrs. Lee there
fore applied to the Society for aid. 49,.
Agent Grant investigated the mhtter and
found that the child had been given the best
of care, and reported that the Society could
not well interfere.
The marks around the Chinese woman's
neck, which she alleged were made last
night, the agent saw two days ago.
Last night Mrs. Lee determined to take the
matter into her own hands, and took
"Dinkey" with her for self. protection.
They claim that when they asked for the
child Mrs. Dock called Tor help and had
them arrested on n false charge.
In court the Chinese woman admitted that
she intended to return to China and was go.
ing to take tho child with her. Her hus
band had saved several thousand dollars in
the laundry business.
The Chinese woman was represented by
Edmund f.. Price, and he succeeded i'll hav.
ing the defendants held in $1,000 bail &c
await the action of the Grand Jury on @
charge OF robbery.
