THE MAY WHEAT DEAL.
4 BREAK OF TEN CENTS FROM
MONDAYS HIGH POINT.
Partridge Endeavoring to Get Finan-
cial Assistance From His Wife
to Recoup His Losses.


SpeClal 10 Cle tiECORD-UNIOS.
CHICAGO, April 13.-May wheat sold
down to so cents a bushel to-day, break
of ten cents from yesterdays high point.
The general air on Change was one of
awful uncertainty. To many it look ed
like the celebrated bull clique had abau-
doned the deal. This theory was not
generally entertained, however Another
object in letting down the price is thought
to have been the courage of the sd orts 10
respond to margin calls more freely than
they have for two or three days. The
DEAL it is asserted, is being run in abso-
lutte cold blood, and it is the determina-
ton to get every dollar out of it that can
be obtained.
Partridge was decidedly lay figure
to-day. He is quoted as saying that as
soon as his wife returns from California
he will have another million dollars in
cash at his disposal. He has teIegraphed
for her. Those best acquainted with the
inside situation say Mrs. Partridge will
never put her signature to paper involv-
ing dollars worth of the S2,O00,OOO of
real estate standing in her name, but the
clique seems willing to give him chance
to raise all the cash he can scrape to-
gether, evidently acting on the theory
that the more he puts up the more they
will get.
In confirmation of the theory that the
plunger will get no aid from his better
half, the story is told that she made him
pledge himself not to speculate in line of
over million bushels, and that his son
was given charge of his bank account
and check book to prevent violation of
the agreement. Several times since she
has called him down on reports from her
son, but the speculator has still operated
beyond the limit.
There is still great amount of specu-
lation as to who is really behind the deal.
Drexel, Morgan Il Co., James A. Keene
and others are most frequently men
toned. A strange coincidence is the fact
that c. j. kershaw is in the city. He is
the man who was one of the principal
brokers in the big Harper wheat deal in
1887, and occupied the same position the
Cudahys do in the present operation.
This is the first time he has been back
since then.
c. A. Pillsbury arrived from Minneop-
oils during the day and made several
| trips between the offices of his brokers
and the Cudahys'. 1t is reported he is
settling up as much as five million BUSH
els and had not brought money enough
with him, and had to make big draft on
his English partners.

WORLDS FAIR RATES.

Twenty Per Cent. Reduction on the
Other Side of the Missouri River.
CHICAGO, April 13.-The committee of
the Western Passenger Association which
is considering the question of Worlds
Fair rates this afternoon agreed upon
rates, and at meeting tomorrow will
report in favor of fare for the round
trip of the regular rate less 20 per cent,
and nothing to be sold at less than two
cents per mile. This same fare was
adopted by the Central Traffic and other
associations. This rate, however, will
have no bearing upon the tariff from
points west of the Missouri River, apply
ing only to the old Western Passenger
Association territory.
The Transcontinental and Western
Freight Association lines have not vet
reached an agreement, and have about
given up all hope of doing so. A meeting
to consult the Northern Pacific Coast
lines will be held at st. Paul next week.

Lindsey, son of Colonel Lindsey, an en-
ploye of the old National Bank, COM
mitted suicide last night in grove oppo-
site Twickenham Park. Money troubles
and quarrel with young woman are
supposed to be the cause of the deed. The
body was found this morning at about 10
o'clock by some boys. A revolver was
lying on the ground beside him.
1t is believed that one cause of the sui
eide was recent quarrel with Miss Dora
Mckay, to whom he is supposed to have
been engaged. This morning Miss Nc
Kay received a note from him stating
that if he disappeared to-day she could
find him in the grove opposite Twicken-

1dle-Savage Encounter Between

Special to the REcoRD-UNIoN
PARIS, April 13.-Upon the resumption
OF the sitting of the Behring Sea Court of
Arbitration to-day James c. Carter con-
tlnued, in behalf of the United States, the
presentation of the American side of the
case commenced yesterday. He read let
tiers bearing upon the question at issue
sent by Blaine, when Secretary of State,
to Sir Julian Pauncefote, British Minister
at Washington. After reading these let
tiers, Carter lengthily commented upon
them. He commended that Blaine's COM
munications 10 the British representa-
tives showed the basis of negotiations for
the regulation of the sealing industry was
to preserve the species and this, apart
from the question of rights, Lord Sails
bury, Carter further contended, in his
dispatches to Pauncefote in response to
Blaine's letters, ably and ingeniously
avoided rather than answered Blaines
arguments that pelagic fishing was contra
5OnOS HtoreS.
At this point John I. Morgan, one of
the arbitrators on the part of the United
States, inquired whether Canada had ap-
PlONCN VI llS uIdII Vi Inc convention De-
fore Lord Salisbury made his suggestion
relative to the ten-mile limit.
This question led to a discussion in
which Carter, Sir Charles Russell of coun-
sci for Great Britain, Sir John Thomp-
son of Canada, one of the British arbi-
traitors, and Senator Morgan took part.
Carter admitted that the fact that
pelagic sealing was wrong did not give
the United States Government the right to
interfere, but contended when it was
proved that such sealing injured an
American industry it became the duty OF
the United States to stop the practice
Carter in concluding proceeded to the
question of the right of the United States
to protect its sealing interests and indus
try. He began by declaring however
valuable to the United States the seal
trade might be, its greatness as a nation
forbade its accepting any decision unless
founded upon the principles of justice.
He was convinced that Great Britain
shared these views, and demanded only
decision dictated by these principles.
He appealed to the members of the court
TO dismiss from their breasts every feel
ing Of Partially and give judgment, not
as citizens of any particular country, but
as citizens of the world. Mr.. Carter had
not finished when the court adjourned.

on the members of the Shipping Fedora

this is a prelude to similar action by The
