THE LONDON FUR SALE.
A Perfect Model for Fairness and Lucit

In the catalogue of sale, a volume of
narrow folio of two hundred pages, the

with scrupulous care. with notes,
where needed, stating that the skins
are damaged by shot, unusually large
or small, dirk or pale, woody or rough.
Or cubs in the case of bears, dyed or
stained, choice, poor, middling, or
specimen skins. 1t is the fairest sale
in the world, a model of lucid order.
1t seems at first that no one looks at
the skins at all except the porters, who
are packing and pressing them into

Of all incongruous jumbles of thought,
the mind travels back to Lords cricket

costume of the cricket umpire, are

They are buyers and merchants,
inspecting samples, and guard
ing their broadcloth in white
smocks. Judgment is passed, not
only by the quality Of the fur. to
which the catalogue is almost suf-
ficient guide, but by the soundness and
texture of the skin itself; and the dry,
yet still oily skins, hide outward. are
fingered, scanned and criticised with
the dizziness and certainly born of long
experience.
These raw skins often bear curious
marks from the hands that FIRST
stripped them from the mink or mus
ouash in the fur countries. Laconic
Indian letters are found scratched or
painted on the skins, sometimes in pic
ture-writing, like the Indian letter
Transcribed by Marryat in his Settlers

message IS written in Roman charac-
t,rs, and occasionally words of old
French, the legacy of the days of Mont

CHICAGO. April 30-Wheat after about
fifteen minutes of weakness at the start,
became firm today and ended with q gain
of Il cent per bushel. After months
steady liquidation of May wheat it is to
be presumed that the last bushel has been
sold out which the holders were not pre-
pared to take for and pay for if rendered
tomorrow. While money is being pressed
upon carriers of wheat by lenders at 80
per cent. it does not seem likely that the
owners of the property will drop it at
present prices unless it should be demon
strated later in the season that in spite of
drought. frost and diminished acreage,
another phenomenally large crop is to be
the result of this years harvest
Corn was dull and closed l 1-16 cents
lower for July and 4 lower for May. In
the oats market the shorts in May became
aware that the msnipulators were not
quite done with them as is indicated by
an advance of 1 cent per bushel from IS
cent decline which occurred at the OPEN
ing. Provisions closed strong after weak
hess at the start.
An increase of 2, 696, 900 bushels of wheat
on passage, favorable weather in at least
two of the western wheat growing states,
Kansas and Nebraska, and dull and weak
foreign markets were influences causing a
dull opening of the wheat at q cent
decline, The same influence caused fur
Their depression of Il for May and q for
July. A recovery soon followed when it
was found that the demand for May wheat
was more pressing than the order to sell.
The New York clearanceS were liberal and
helped cofirm the strong feeling which
had sprung up. The improvement con-
tiuued until July reached 60sss15. The

hour before the close the price kept within
j 1-16 cents of COZ for July and May was,
during the same time, at discount of TO
PM cents.
Corn was very dull until after the WIS.,
1ble supply statement gave evidence of
showing considerable decrease in stocks
during last week. After that had been
confirmed the feeling became easier again.
but in the meantime an early decline OF =
cent per bushel in May and q cent in July
had been nearly all recovered. The priD-
cipal business OF the day was in the way of
changing May contracts over to July.
Oats started somewhat easier in SYM
pathy with wheat and corn and continued
10 follow in the wake of those markets
during the greater part of the session.
The demand for May was quite good, but
little for sale. Some strength was devel-
oped and May sold from 325ss. the opening
price. to 331.
Speculative prices in the provision pit
opened lower than Saturdays closing
prices. owing to the receipts of hogs being
5000 over the estimates. The weakness
gave place to steadiness aud that to
strength when it was found that Swift &
Co, who appeared willing 10 take all the
offerings at the opening prices. continued
to bid for stuff even after the market had
advanced materially. Trade was extreme

recent advance in these shares, took &C.
casion this morning to give the shorts a
little squeeze. The time was propitious
for the venture IS there were some good
buying orders on the exchange and few il
any sellers. The opening quotation, as
recorded. was 1051z@106; the purchasing
being too brisk to allow of the intervening
prices to be obtained by the official re-
porters. Heavy blocks of the stock were
readily absorbed, the buying being encour-
aged by renewed assurances from
Washington to the effect that re-
fined sugar would be properly protected.
When 1861 was touched there was some
realizing, causing reaction to 1041<. The
lower figures induced fresh buying and an
advance was made to 1925, which was 2%
per cent above the closing figure of Satur-
day. In the final dealings there were sales
to realize profits which sent the prices
down ~ per cent, leaving a gain on the day
of.11s per cent. The preferred stock sold up
. TO $50, reacting 81 per cent at the
close. Chicago Gas was affected unfavor-
ably by the report that an application by
the company for an injunction to restrain
the attorney general OF Illinois from bring
ing the.Quo warranto suit had been denied.
Chicago, Burlington and Quincy were
pressed for sale in the early dealings on re-
ports that the rate of dividend would have
to be reduced owing to the decreased earn
ings. The delay in publishing the March
statement which is overdue, gave color of
truth to the report and On this the stock
