oHicAao. FEB. ls-The grain markets started
with the mild form of panic among the shorts.
Wheat started with jump Of Nc over the
closing prices of the previous afternoon An
easier feeling succeeded and decline to csc
had becn brought about by II O'Clock, then It
tors reported it showing there, and the suspen-
sion OF the American Loan and Trust Company
OF New York assisted the downward movement
and so did the fact that the bulls had. on the
morning bulge, unloaded their wheat on shorts
IL only needed little courage on the part of
the bears TO cause q further decline and they
gathered enough OF il together in the last fifteen
minutes to cause a drop to e7ISc. The corn
market was just a tribe excited at the opening
and the price for May was advanced 1S5eJ4c.
First trades in May were made at 62}zeA52;kc
and not until considerable business had been
done &C L4c over the highest OF those quotations
did the market show any signs of having salts
ned the shorts; 641sc was substantially the
highest point OF the general trading. There
was good buying in oats early. May advanced
from 461zc at the opening TO 46asc. A weaker
feeling then manifested aud the price declined
until the close. The opening of the provision
market was quiet but firm in sympathy with
grain and there was no pressure OF offerings.
The demand for lard at the concession of 2l6c
from yesterdays closing price was the feature
on call. The closing price of May lard was 2I6c
lower than on Tuesday. Pork and RIBS declined
a fraction less than lard.

New YORK, Dec. 26.-The purchase
of the machinery and cordagc works OF
John Good. located at Ravenswood and
Brooklyn, has been effected by the Ma
tional Cordage company in everything
but the technical details. The WORKS are
valued at 81. 200, 900. The purchase of
these works means au acquisition to the
home of valuable patents and another
step towards the virtual control Of the in
dustry.
Henry c. Kelly, a large dealer in cord
age and ropes. said: AS | understand it,
the National Cordage company has not
bought John Goods plant. 1t simply
paid him a subsidy to shut down. The
price paid, | believe. to the National
Cordage company is iu the n~eighborhood
of 5000. 900 annually. Only a month ago
the National Cordage company bought
out in the same manner the firm Of
Bailey 4 Co. of Philadelphia On the
str ngtn of these two deals the price of
manila rope and another rope of better
quality has been advanced 10 per cent.
There is likely to be another advance
soon. The trust now controls a majority
of the spindles in this country"

The Cars Brother II Tvranr.

LONDON, Dec. 2G. - Contradictory
stories have been received kere regarding
the Grand Duke Sergius, brother OF
the czar, who was last spring appointed
governor of Moscow. At the beginning
of the present month it was said the
grand duke vas making himself very I'm
popular bv his efforts to suppress the
fraudulent practices growing out of the
corruption for which the Russian official
world is notorious. The fact that he has
interfered with the stealing of famine
money has caused him to be very un-
popular with a certain wealthy and
influential class who are doing their
utmost to secure his removal from off ,e.
Advices received today state the car
his brother of nursing ambiti-
Gus designs though the nature of the
designs in a country where all social and
political honors emanate from the car is
not stated 1t is added the car has been
so Impressed by the array OF evidence
presented to him against the grand duke
that it is his intention to send him into
exile. The wife Of the grand duke is a
daughter Of Grand Duke Louis Of Hesse
and grand daughter of Queen Victoria.
She recently abandoned the religious
faith in which she was trained and in
April last formally joined the Greek
church. 1t Is charged in some quarters
the conversion of the grand duchess wa,
not the result of a free change IN her re.
ligious belief. but due to the moral per
suasion OF a very brutal kind.

WASHINGTON. Dec. 26.-Cap;. Coul'

Rush, has made a report to the treasury
department OF the cruise of that vessel in
Alaskan waters from Oct, 10 to Dec 5.
He says the weather was boisterous
nearly all the time and considerable diff
Guilty was experienced in executing the
orders Of the department IN regard to the
collection of data In regard to pelagic
sealing and the landing of mail and stores
on the seal islands. Capt. Coulson says
he Is convinced if 1t is necessary to
guard the rookeries on st Paul
and St. George islands until Dec. /
it would be the wisest policy to place an
officer of revenue marine on the Islands
in charge of a number Of men to act as
leaders in organizing a company or squad
Of natives for regular patrol and guard.
These men woIld only be required to be
at the stations or rookeries on the lea
side of the islands as it is impossible to
land on the weather side in bad weather.
In calm weather a guard should be placed
Mt each rOOkery.
