CHICAGO, Dec. 2.-Trading in all of the
grain pits was dull and weak during most of
the day, and with fluctuations confined to
moderate limits. The early cables showed
wheat and corn both decidedly weak and
lower in Liverpool, and continental reports
were not encouraging Domestic markets

reported that Bradstreet report would show
an increase in the available supply of wheat
during the week of nearly 4,00),0)1 bu, while
the weather was as favorable for the winter
wheat crop as could well be expected
There was also report that Beerbohm' s
compilation of the worlds wheat crop
showed an excess of 100000 bu over the
crop of 1889, which was not especially a
small crop, nor noted for its high prices
About the only items which relieved the ont
look for the bulls was the fact that the clear
ances seaboaId were reported at nearly 1 900,
600 bu and the fact that the clearances for
the week from all points to the continent
and the United Kingdom was nearly 1000,
600 bu less than the week previous.
December wheat opened sSc off at 901sc

market was firm for time, but later in the
day followed wheat sagging off in the middle
of the session, but reactng slightly near the
close. December opened and closed al an

January is Ice lower and May unchanged.
The superior strength in December was the
result of a demand for shorts, who fear

FINED THE ANARCHISTS,
Their Meeting Held to Be UnIaw-
ful-An Appeal.

ful-An Appeal.
CHICAGO. Dec. "A question of civil
rights was decided by Police Justice
Woodman this morning, and while the
city won victory, technically, in real
ity it has suffered a decided defeat. The
decision grows out of the action of the
police at the time of the descent on
Grief's saloon Oh West Lake street.
where the police arrested several per-
sons who were denouncing the police.
At the hearing in police court the pris-
onerS and their friends claimed that
their meetings were not anarchistlc and
were entirely innocent of menace to the
public welfare. They denounced the
action of the police as without color of
law and in defiance of the right or
peaceable assembly.
The Justice today expressed the opin-
ion that the assemblies raided were un-
lawful ones. He therefore fined the
leaders 500 each and the others $40
each. These fines, at the instance of
the city prosecutor, were at once
suspended. This action was presum-
ably taken for the purpose of ayerting
an appeal to the higher courts. 1t is
understood, however. that the defend
ants will appeal nevertheless.

A RAID THAT PAID.
St. Louis Bandits Safe Away With
Rich Booty,

Rich Booty.
ST.. LOUIS, Mo, Dec. 2.-The Adams
Express company, it is now stated. will
lose about $4,000 by the robbery of the
Frisco night express car near Glendale
Monday night, and the ''hold up'' is
rapidly developing into criminal sem
sation of the first order. The safe of
the express company was completely
ritied, and, although yesterday Super
intendent Damsel placed the loss in the
neighborhood of 20,OO0,i is now known
that the safe contained far more than
that amount. With the booty now
known to have been secured by the rob-
bers, reaching upwards of 100000, the
unsatisfactory fact is also developing
that the daring band of six men seem to
have gotten away, as Yesterdays work
by detectives. the Adams express peO-
pie and the Frisco road failed to dis
cover any trace Of them. The only
positive development Is that the rob
berry was Skillfully planned and eXe>
cuted, and that the robbers had evil
IDENTIFY perpetrated some plan of escape
by which they speedily and surely fed
from the scene of their great haul.
