CHICAGO. Ill.,, March 15.-The drop IN
the mercury over night bringing extreme
cold to Illinois, Missouri, Kentucky,
Ohio and other wheat states, caused
regular roundup of the bull forces Oh
change at the opening to-day. Ii there
was any doubt of damage to wheat after
the freeze of ten days ago, there can be
little doubt now with the thermometer
ranging from 2 to IL deg above zero
over several states where fields have
been soaked by rains during the week.
The floor was flooded with dispatches
from all over the country at the open
ing. The market opened wild and
nearly 1c higher for May at S01ac. This
was the opportunity for very extensive
realizing by number of houses. Will
lam Dunn, Geddes, Schwrartz-Dupee,
Kammerer, Cudahy. Hutchinson, Lind
blom. S. V. White & Co., and others all
sold hard and Tast. The price, even
under these offerings, yielded only
to 795sc, and at once recovered
to S03sc. The heavy buying of
the morning was by Jones-Ken-
ntlU, dllQ WdS CI6ullcu W OGs hOulo
shorts. June wheat sold as high as soc,
with reaction to 1899. and July sold
at 777s@7S5sc before noon. There was
other bull news besides the cold. Four
Atlantic ports cleared 100000 bu of
wheat and 10000 pkgs of flour for the
week. Bradstreet's made the wheat in
first hands 136,OO0,00O bu, or 22,0O0,000
bu less than Dodge. New York con-
firmed 35 boat loads taken for export
yesterday, including some Thursday
business. New York sent big orders
here on the reaction from the best
figures. That port cleared $4,000 bu of
of wheat and 1000 sacks of flour. Re-
ceiptS-Wheat, 40 cars; corn, 406 cars;
oats, III cars. Withdrawn from store,
53,13S bu wheat and 3l2,650 bu corn.
Corn was active within narrow range,
and closed shade higher. Oats were
quiet and without material change.
Pork was active, and advanced early,
but weakened on free selling by longs,
and closed &c lower for March and May.
Lard and ribs were also active, but
easier at the close, which showed 5@71ac
decline from yesterday.
The leading futures ranged as follows:

Wheat opened higher and active. with
some selling on the bulge to realize, with
few shorts covering. Large exports and un-
favorable weather were the prime causes of
the start upward Saturday morning. The ex-
ports for the week from the three largest At.
lantic ports comprised some 560,0JO bu of
wheat and 100000 packages of flour. The
freezing weather along the Ohio valley, where

would kill the insects and do more good than
harm. After the opening at 19@7SlSc, May

Receipts of wheat were 166 cars and ship
ments SO cars. The stocks here i'll public
elevators are expected to show about 100000
bu increase for the week. The change from
decrease in previous weeks to an increase
now is due to the larger arrivals from interior
elevators for several days. Farm movement
was reported small excepting at few points
in Minnesota. The local demand for spot
wheat was smaller, as the flour market did
not respond to wheat in the last up move
ment. Holders of spot wheat asked higher
prices to correspond with the rise i'll futures,
butmllers held back and there was little
outside buying The offerings were very hard
to move excepting at concessions Oh the part

ASTOR'S ONLY SALE.
How William b. Obtained a Big
Hotel for a Dollar.

New York Telegram.
One of the most stringent real estate
rules of the Astor family is to ''nevel
sell.' and only one sale is recorded in
the entire life of old John Jacob the
first. In 1880 he tore down his house on
Broadway, cleared the whole block
from Vesey to Barclay street, and built
the huge gray Quincy granite motel that
to this day holds the name of the Astor
house, one of the most notable land
marks in the city, and also one of the
beSt-paying pieces of property.
A few days after it was finished the
old gentleman and his eldest son, Will
lam. were walking through City Hall
park where the postOtice now stands,
and stopped moment to admire the
buildtng-the finest hotel in America at
that time.
Pop, that's mighty fine building" "
said William; II wish to gracious it was
mine."
"So?' answered his father. "Well,
Billy, give me dollar and you can
have it,"
Out came the dollar-a big silver dol
lar that is cherished by the family to
this day as tine dollar of our daddies, end
within an hour the deed of the property
was made out and recorded.
This was old Mr.. AStor'S only sale of
real estate in his life.

CAUGHT IN HIS TRICK.
A Dry Goods SWindle That Was
PLAYED Once Too Often.

The story is true, without doubt. for
the relator had every opportunity to
know the facts of the case. A we'll
known dry goods man, with brother
in the same line in a large Western city,
seldom made purchase from certain
importing house, either in his own be-
half or that OF his brother. without after
ward demanding a rebate for goods
damaged or missing. Although there
was reason to suspect him of fraud, the
importing house did not care to lose his
trade, and nothing was said. One day sew
eral packages of goods were bought to
be shipped to the brother in the West.
Through an oversight the packages were
not shipped, but remained in the store.
A few days later, when there had been
time for the goods to arrive and advices
had been received regarding their con-
dltiOn, the Well-known dry goods man
entered the office of the importing
house. He took out paper which pur-
ported to be schedule of the articles
found damaged in the packages on their
arrival in the Western city, and asked
for a rebate as usual. The importer did
not happen to know that the goods were
not shipped and was about to accept the
claim, when one of his clerks, who
overheard the conversation, whispered:
"Mr. -, those goods are in our cellar"
and went on to explain the mistake that
had been made in not forwarding them.
The importer. usually a pleasant man
with healthy, red cheeks, turned very
white. At first he had some idea of a
criminal action, but he changed his
mind and gave the claimant a round
cursing. The latter listened calmly,
and then remarked: ''What scoundrel
that brother of mine isl''

Chatter From Fer on Things Human

HOW NUCH DOGS KNOW.
Points in Wearing Buckles---Sone
Things On Which Women Don't
Excel.

A doc and a woman used to be quoted
together as being the better for beat
ing, but nowadays a woman who is a
good walker has thoroughbred puppy,
with four feet, dancing beside her, ,bask-
ing in the sunlight of her smile, and
who is quite as critical of her appear
ance as only a dog can be. Dog stories,
like fish stories, ought always to be ac-
cepted with pinch of sal, ,and yet here
is one for which can vouch: A small
fox-terrier, white as milk, with the
proper golden-brown spots on his head
having a pedigree longer than queen
Victoria's and temper sWeeter than
Griselda's. full of fun and adoring
babies, made his debut when he was
only week old in a "littery"
family. He was christened with great
pomp "Charles Chum," but later
on these short syllableS were not consid-
cred sufficient for his dignity, and he
was re-christened civilian BillykinS,"
known to his intimates as BILLY"
After he was taught that it was not DO
lite TO snatch at things; that his mis-
tress was perfectly well satisfied with
being kissed once a day. and that fruit
cake was not a suitable diet for
small puppies, he was educated, by
means OF a whip trimmed will. yellow
ribbons, not to tear up bit OF paper.
the chief and original sin In 1oA-ter-
rier is the liking for tearing up any
thing, but especially paper; so that TINS
young gentleman was taken thr0ugn
what the darkies call "a course of
sprouts before he realized fully that
anything in the shape of an envelope or
a bit of paper of any kind must be let
alone.
