CHICAGO, Aug. 5.-The speculative market
was again decidedly lacking in snap to-day,
local interest being of an indifferent sort, with
outside orders scarce ever. The general
situation was in fact without single new or
interesting feature. The temper OF the pit was
undoubtedly bearish and lO& operators are
pretty generally short" on the market The
statistical portion of wheat on the contrary was
favorable to buyers, if not positively bulliSh.
Trading in futures was inconsequential through
out the session aud most of IL was in Deem
Der. That month fuctuated within extreme
limits of sc and closed &c higher than on
Saturday. The good demand for cash wheat at
this point on shipping and export account,
noted around the close OF last week, continues,
there being several moderate sized round lots
taken to-day. New No. red again
sold at ZlG3c premium over August.
Coma moderate degree of speculative ac-
tivity was manifested in this market early, but
as the session advanced the pit became quiet
and lifeless The market opened trihe under
Saturdays closing prices but was firm and ad-
vanced &c on buying by local shorts. The
cooler weather had q strengthening influence.
The advance brought out free offerings, one or
two shippers selling quite freely and the mar
ket receded, ruled frmer and closed 1s(9Hc
better than Saturday. The visible showed a
moderate decrease and local stocks were re-
duced 19O,635 bushels, making the quantity
now in store here l 2o2 734 bushels or ,221, Sl5
bushels smaller than the corresponding time
last year. A good business was done in oats,
particularly early IN the session, when weaker
feeling developed. Offerings were free, re-
ceipts being large and the demand light First
sales were at 5S@1<c decline. This brought
in quite a number OF buyers and a better feeling
developed and prices reacted H04c. Later
offerings decreased but the market closed quiet
and easy at sc decline from Saturday. Trading
in pork was only moderate. Offerings were
not large and the demand was active, especially
during the early part of the day. Prices ruled
15@175zc higher early but the market soon
weakened and prices receded T9@lOc and
closed quiet. Shipping demand light. fair
trade was reported in lard early. Local shorts
purchased moderate quantities and the offer
ings being somewhat light prices were advanced
5G7Lc. Later the feeling was easier and
prices settled back again 21895c, closing steady.
A light trade was done in ribs The feeling
was steadier early and prices were advanced
23%@5c with moderate business Later the
market was easier and prices settled back again
with only light trading.
The leading futures ranged as follows:

Charley hester Draws "A $751; 900 Prize in
The Louisiana State Lottery.
Beyond doubt the happiest man in the city
to-day is Charles p. Nester, the young book
keeper with A. Bauman. About month ago
young Nester invested Il IN the Louisiana
State Lottery, and at the June drawing OF that
concern he drew One-fortieth oil the first capital
prize of 100000.
After being assured by telegraph from head
quarters that his ticket No. 81. COS, entitled
him to a share OF the big prize, he Immediately
placed il in the hands OF the Hooking Valley
national bank for collection. They forwarded
il to their banking agents at Cincinnati and
the ticket was on its way to New Orleans long
before many knew OF the young mans good
luck. just one week from the day of sending
Mr.. hester was notified by the bank people
that the ticket had been cashed, and $4,000,
less $50, the charges for collection, had been
placed to his credit, and was subject 70 his
order at the Hooking Valley bank.
The young man received the news with con-
siderable JOY, and he was busy for some time
receiving the congratulations OF his many
friends Ii Is seldom that any one receives q
sum OF this size, either by inheritance or other
wise, aud coming as il does. on the eve of Dis
manhood, il will be splendid starter should
he wish to branch out in business enterprise.
Mr.. hester is yet in his twentieth year, and
is a son of the late p. Nester. Since quitting
school he has been employed by diierent
parties as bookkeeper, and served as mail
weigher in the postal service during the latter
months OF Cleveland's administration. He has
only been investing in Louisiana State lottery
tickets for the last i've months, anu then went
in with a pool OF ten or more and bought the
tickets Jointly Last month he went in alone,

action.

Why Jay Gould's Detective Is Slated To BE
Chief of the Secret Service.
81

w ASH nEtOn spec al
There are reasons for the intended appoint
nent of Thomas Furlong to the position of
chief of the secret service in the treasury de-
Isrtment which have not yet been published.
1t is true that Furlong has been one of Jay
Could's most energetic detectives, and as such
did some of the dirty work required by the
good railroad king. and Gould's Endorsement is
strong with this administration. But Furlong
has done other work which requires recog-
milton. He was summoned to indianapolis by
Russell Harrison during the campaign last year
and employed to do some of the fine work
needed in that state. And this is not all.
When Schuyler Crosby, once governor of
Montana, began suit against Russell Harrison
for SANDER, laying his damages at $4,000, il
was known that Crosby had once been in Louis
lana and there were false and malicious whis-
pers about the reputation he left behind him.
AS prince Russell" had q knowledge of Fur
longs capabilities from his work in Indiana
the young editor employed Gould's detective
TO work up case against Crosby. 1t is the
fact that Furlong is in the employ OF Russell,
assisting him to elaborate a case against Crosby
that makes Furlong eligible for the position of
chief of the secret service. Another of the
Harrison family debts is to be paid by this APP
pointment- District assembly, No. So, X. of l.,
OF this city met tonight and passed resolutions
protesting against the appointment of Furlong.
It is probable. however, that none of those
things will cause change, as it is limited that
Furlong has still stronger pulp upon the
Harrison family than any yet named.
This is the first time that a president has
taken the appointment of chief of the secret
service out OF the hands of the secretary of the
treasury. Secy. Window does not want to APP
point Furlon9. He has promised Mr.. Pow
derry, the head of the K. of L., that the APP
pointmeut would not be made. The X. OF l..
hsve already entered their remonstrsnce and
ase renewing IL Furlong has been in Wash
in gton for several months. When he first
csme here he called at the Office of Chief Bell
End declared that he had been doing his best

ADVISING RESISTANCE.
The SCHOOL, Book Trust Urges Violations of
the New Law.


The school-book trust is still making a des-
perate effort TO keep its hold on the purse
strings Of Indiana parents. The latest effort is
letter of advice sent out simultaneously by
Van Antwerp, Bragg & Co., A. S. Barnes &
Co. and, perhaps, by other mem
bers of the notorious combine. The
circulars which are being sent 10
trustees, county superintendent and dealers
in school books. in the main identical
They open with the unblushing falsehood that
there is not and never has been a school book
trust and that the people of the state have en-
ioyed the benefits of the freest competition be-
tween the publishing houses. II this be true, il
is very remarkable that the firm of A. 3.
Barnes & Co., which has sold
any books TO sPek OF in Indiana
should 20 to the trOube of advising people to
violate the law which drives Van Antwerp,
Bragg & Co. out of the state.
After the effrOntery of this assertion it is
perhaps not surprising that the members of
this unholy combine should advocate an open
violation of the law. Their circulars state that
the claw does not require the use OF the new
book; it is not compulsory" This is rs clearly
q lie as the previous assertion. The attorney
general in his opinion on the law,
says; THE language Of the act
is imperative and c0mpulsory:" and
again: 'If a trustee fails to obey any command
of the new school book law, he will violate the
conditions OF his bond" and still further:
'"The trustees are not allowed to retain the old
books" This Is pretty good evidence that the
law is compulsory.
There is little reason to believe that the
school book trust will be very successful in It's
attempt TO induce peoISe TO violate the law
Gov. HOvey and the encouragement have de-
clared that trustees falling TO comply with the
law will violate their Oaths of Office and the trus-
tees, as rule, are men who respect their oaths
Of Office. From HsmiltOn county where, IN
secret session, the county board decided not to
obey the law, came two trustees yesterday,
who went to the state superintendent office
and procured the papers necessary to make
their first requisition.
Thursday the frst requisition was received
from Allen county. Others are expected to
pour in next week. after the meeting Of the
county boards OF education meet
