CHICAGO, Aug. 15.-Markets today were all
reasonably active. with a general tendency to
lower prices for the whole list. The opening
was weak all around, and after some slight
rallies all commodities sagged to a lower
range, oats being The exception in the way of
strength. There was a narrow market in
wheat during the whole of the session, al
though trading ut times was spirited. Some
Influential news came out on both sides of
the market, but not enough on either side to
carry the market out of the usual rut. Sep
TENDER is still the active option. but at times
the trade drifted largely into December.
Early public cables were dull for spot and
I'D lower for futures at Liverpool. Chicago
had $50 cars above the estimate, and there
was report that ST. Louis had 1.5A0.OGO
bushels blockaded on side tracks This latter.
however, was quietly contracted. and then
came reports that wheat fields in Minnesota
had suffered from wind and rain of Saturday
night. On large visible increase and eSti-
mates for tomorrow, September broke to
71l2c.
Corn was unsettled and weak in the earlv
transactions, and later the market was held
In check by trading against privileges. The
market yielded under somewhat better crop
news and favorable weather map.
Oats exhibited weakness at the opening,
but this condition only lasted for a short
time. the market gradually irming up fer
futures.
Considerable interest was manifested in
the market for hog products, and the trading
in the aggregate was moderately active. The
features surrounding the market favored
higher prices but the general feeling was
unsettled. Receipts of product were fairly
liberal, and shipments quite large. AT a
slight advance there was considerable pres

New York.

NEW YORK, Aug. 15.-There was q great
less heard about silver in Wall street today
and gold again occupied the attention, espe-
ciaily of those whose interests would be best
served by decline in the price of securities
An engagement of Sl.00l, 000 however was
followed not by the decline expected but by
renewal of the intense stagnation in bust
ness as well as prices. The persiStency of
holders seems to be of the most extraordinary
kind, when the adverse of circumstances
which have affected the market are taken
into consideration; and the long continued
liquidation for foreign account. coupled
with the renewed assaults of the bear ele-
ment. have failed to depress prices more
than slight fractions at Il time.
A slight Improvement i'll the price of silver
this morning allowed the DEVELOPMENT of a
firm temper i'll the market despite the con-
tinued pressure of the trading paternity. and
While the dizziness i'll the general list was
most intense, the few movements made were
all toward higher prices. Reading and Sugar
monopolized most of the attention. but the
former was inclined TO drop while the latter
scored net rise OF 1Ss percent from its last
price Of Saturday.
Cordage sympathized. but failed to move as
much as in railroad stocks and the business
done was too small to admit of any move

advance, lost more than the gain: but while
the other coalers were inclined TO follow the
same track the list i'll general moved within

The Post says: The ordering of 81, 600, 600
in gold for shipment TO Europe by tomor-
rows steamer came somewhat in the nature
OF n surprise. 1t was predicted i'll this col
umn on Saturday that further shipments
might be expected, nut it was generally sup
posed that the shipment might be postponed
until near the close of the week. 1t is I'M
derstood that the shippers in question re-

hope that larger supply of commercial
bills would be visible, but as they were not
forthcoming, the shipment was render ed

ally had some influence in depressing the
market. There was rally in The price of

days. The payment for the gold was made
entirely in treasury notes.

A MOTHER's CURSE.
Considered in the Light of a
SuperstitiOn.


ST. LOUIS, Aug. 15.-The suicide of
Judge James c. Normile. of the St.
Louis criminal court. will afford the
superstitious chance to speculate.
He was one of the three whom a
despaiung and heartbroken mother is
said to have called down curse upon.
and he is the second of the trio to die
by his own hand.
Judge NOrmile waas prosecuting at
torney at the trial of Walter III. Lennox
Maxwell, alias Brooks, who was COLI
victed and executed for the murder of
his friend and benefact0r. Arthur e..
Preller, at the Southern horel. The case
was known as the trunk mystery, and
was noted throughout the world. The
murderer's mother came from England,
where Brooks Sr. is schoOlmaSter, and
left no stone unturned to secure his ac-
Quittal, but to no purpose. After the
execution it was reported that Mrs.
Brooks called down curse upon the
head of the trial Judge, the prosecutor,
and, lastly, Gov. Morehouse. who re-
fused to commute the sentence. 1t is
interesting now to recall the fact that
Judge Van Wagner failed of re-elec-
ton; that Gov. MorehouSe, i'm fit of
.deiirium, committed suicide less than a
year ago, and now the prosecutor in the
case has died by his own hand.

A FINANCIAL BLUFF.
Made by a Gold-EXporting Firm,
1t Is Called Without Any
Sort of q Kick.
A Million in Yellow Coin Handed
Out for a Like Amount in
Treasury Notes.

NEW YORK. Aug. IA crucial test
of the policy of the government was
made today, when Heidelbach, Ickel
heimer d Go. rendered S1,090,0O0 in
treasury notes which were issued ON
account of silver purchases, and de-
manded for them 81 100000 in gold for
shipment to Germany by tomorrow's
steamer. The treasury officials made
no demur, but paid out the S1,000,0 600 in
exchange for the treasury notes and the
load was carted away and put OH the
steamer.
The transaction caused some COM
ment. as no home institution or home
banking firm has ever, in the history of
the government, made like demand on
the treasury, and in some quarters an
impression prevailed that the exporting
firm took this step not so much to take
the profit on the shipment, which in
itself is too insignificant for bank or
firm to consider, but really for the pur-
pose of forcing crisis. Assistant
Treasurer Roberts was at the Sub-treas-
ury while the gold for Germany was
being carted away. He admitted that it
was the first time such demand was
made, although gold has heretofore
been given partly for old and partly for
new treasury notes. He said in reply
to questions:
NO steps have been taken by the
administration to prevent or obstruct
the export of gold. The government
stands ready to meet all its obligations
in gold, and will pay them all in gold.
Its free gold balance now amounts to
sl12,O00,000." By this statement of
Treasurer Roberts it is clear that the
government has already decided OH a
Dlan TO nav all the silver treasury notes
in gold if it is demanded.
Vice President Cannon. of the Fourth
National bank, said he did not think
that the gold surplus would be reduced
at present, but that it would be i'll
creased instead, as the treasury is now
receiving gold from the Eastern banks
for trans-shipment to the West, and in
the West is paying out currency for
these shipments. By this step last
year the treasury increased Its gold
surplus Sl4,000,0O0.
