STRUCK BLACKLEDGE.
There Is Hoodoo Upon the New
Cruiser Montgomery.

NEW LONDON, Oct. 4.-The new cruiser
Montgomery reached the harbor at 4
o'clock this morning. Just outside this
port she ran on Blackledge at 11:45 last
night, at low water, and stuck fast. Tugs
were at once dispatched to the cruiser s
assistance. but the rising tide foated her
before assistance arrived and she came to
port under her own steam.
An examination disclosed bad lndenta-
tion under the starhoard side and she is
said to be leaking badly. The probability
is the trial will not take place just yet.
The Montgomery made splendid run to
this port. showing 16h knots under easy
steaming. She made the run from tho
capes in twenty-four hours.

Enormous Movement Which
Has Started Up Oeea-
+ stoned the Slump.
Light Business in Wheat,
With the Close Weak and
Lower.
Scarcely Any Fresh Business
Done in the Various Hog
Products.
Wall Street Bears Make a
Successful Onslaught on
a Few Stocks.

CHICAGO, June 23.-COrn broke over
a cent bushel today, dragging down
oats and wheat. The occasion of the
break in corn was the enormous move
ment which has started up within two
days. The estimate yesterday OF 320
cars for this morning was the first sign
of jump in receipts. When the re-
ceipts reached 346 cars there was some
surprise and some weakness. When
the estimate for Saturday was given out
at $50 cars the trade was paralyzed. The
whole pit turred to the selling side.
Early in the session the firm cables, the
heavy shipments of yesterday, the
liberal out-inspection helped to steady
the market. If there is any con-
centrated line Oh the bull side
for Wright or any other manipula-
tor no move was made on the break to
indicate it. There was no recovery from
bottom prices. There were sales for
the export of 100000 bu of corn here
| and New York reported 224.000 bu taken
| there, but these operations were not
| generally known until after the close.
| The opening was 4c lower than the
closing figures of yesterday, and prices
further declined 15c, then rallied 40
| &c. again eaSed of, declining to inside
prices, with July &c and September
| selling to point 54c below yesterdays
! closing, ruled little steadier, and the
closing was 55@12c lower for July and
! 15(0e lower for September.
There was only light business IN
wheat, ana most of that was in the way
of buying July and selling September
| by parties who were operating for the
carrying charges. The premium was
! reduced to 4115c, and at times barely
| that much could be obtained. The
| weakness in the market was due to the
| slump in corn and the failure OF one er
! two more banks in California. Opera
tors were also afraid OF the New YORK
| bank statement tomorrow.
Oats weakened with corn, and closed
L00lc lower. Free selling by longs.
| the heavier receipts and reports OF line
weather were the principal bear,Sh IN
| fiuences. A fair general business was
| transacted.
Iu provisions the differences between
July and September narrowed some
/ what, the spread between the two
futures in pork being 90c instead OF 81
| per barrel the day before. There was
corresponding reduction in the other
articles. There was scarcely anything
done in the way of fresh business in
lard or ribs, and none at all in pork.
| Prices at the close were a shade over
the days average, and show very little
change since yesterday.
! .Freights dull. with light offerings of

morrow: Wheat, 100 cars; corn, CSC

PREPARING TO FIGHT.
Northern Pacific Will Give the
Great Northern a Hard TussIe.

CHICAGO, June 23.-The Northern
Pacific is preparing to give jim Hill and
the Great Northern road fight that
they will remember for many long
day. Whether or not an active fight
will be begun at once depends upon the
action taken at the special meeting of
the 27th. If nothing is done at the
meeting which promises entire prOtec-
tiUn To the Northern Pacific, that road
will take matters into Its own hands,
and Will in all probability make
through rates to Chicago which will
have the effect of dragging down
rates all over the Northwest. The
Western roads are very seriously dis
turbed over the prospect of fight, and
will hold off the Northern Pacific as
long as possible, but the latter road is
naturally unwilling to sacrifice its West
ern business. and it will not. Just as
soon as the meeting called for the % h
is over, white-Winged peace will be hov-
ering around or there will begin one of
the toughest railway fights OF recent
years. The ticket offices of the Wiscon-
sin Central and Northern Pacific in Chi
cago are 10 be merged within a short
time, which means the sale of tickets
through from Chicago to the Pacific
coast, instead of tickets from Chicago
to ST. Paul, aud from there to the coast.
