ON THE RISE AGAIN
POPULARITY or NEW bond ISSUE
HELPS THE PRICE OF WHEAT.
Other Grains ut Chicago Follow
Wheat to an Extent, While Pro-
visions Fall Off Moderately.

CHICAGO Feb 20-Wheat doubled on its
track to-day and finished with a gain of
&c. The causes of the advance were the
reports of the popularity of the new bond
issue in London and rurnors of damage TO
the French wheat crop. Corn and oats
rather unwillingly followed wheat, each
closing asc higher. Provisions closed with
slight declines.
The foreign markets We're about steady
and SO was the opening OF the wheat trade
here. May wheat closed yesterday at 521sc,
opened with transactions for the most part
at that price and a few at a sixteenth
under that. During the first two hours the
range was confined between the prices
just quoted and 52a4c. The Northwestern
receipts were heavy as yesterdays adj
vices had predicted Of them. Minneapolis
reported so cars and Duluth $50, or AIS
together, compared with 1lS carloads at
both places a week ago, and 131 on the
corresponding day of the year before. The
success of the new United States bond
issue in London encouraged buyers and
largely counteracted the bearish news of
the day. Before the forenoon had gone the
market commenced to improve. Buying
orders came in from ST. Louis and New
York. and although they were not for very
heavy quantities they caught the local
crowd snort ana caused tulS market TO al
vance smartly to 53c bid. The market acted
strong between IL and l O'Clock and kept
in the neighborhood of 5Sc rather over
than under that most or the time The
closing cables reported the continental mar
kets firm and New York said there was
some buying of wheat there for French
account The principal influence in the
buying here which caused the advance was
a rumor which claimed some damage to the
French crop. It was claimed, disclaimed,
repeated and contradicted several times,
but had a bullsh effect in view of an adj
vance in prices of wheat and flour at Paris.
May sold at 53bc at the close
Corn was not very active, but was firm.
It's strength was apparently of q sympa-
thetic character and inspired by the adj
vance in wheat. May opened at 447sc, sold
sparngly at 4440443sc, rose to 447sc, and
during the greater part of the session it
ranged between 441ac and 43zc, with the
latest trading at Aal@447sc. The business
done was chiefly on account OF local oper-
ators.
In oats fluctuations were ruled entirely
by corn and frmer market was reported.
May sold from 287sc to 29Ac, closing at the
latter price.
The receipts of hogs, which yesterday
were estimated at $1,000, numbered 1900,
and the latter number is estimated for to-
morrow. The provision market weakened
as a consequence. Pork opened with de-
cline of 71ac, lard Csc and ribs Csc, and
those were the losses established by the
closing quotations.
Estimated receipts for tomorrow: Wheat,
II cars; corn, 27o cars; oats. l40 cars; hogs,
AZ, 600 head.

Superintendent of Buildings John D.
nissioners his report for the past fiscal
year, In the course of which he shows that
the total value 0f Improvements for which
permits were issued was 81 ,969, ,s27.27.
The statement shows an increase in the
building operations over the previous
year, as follows: Increase in buildings,
31S;. in dwellings, 234; in valuation,
1894 ,s36. 20.
Assistant Inspectors King and Evans,
make q statement of the work under their
supervision, and reiterate the statement
that their duties and responsibilities are
increasing every year, the territory to be
visited is enlarging every year, and call
without means of transportation except by
the street cars, which makes it a physical
impossibiity to give the work the super
vision to which the building public is en-
titled.
Assistant Inspector vermillion cites the
necessity OF an effective law to govern
the erection of fire escapes, cnd recon-
mends the adoption Of a substitute for the
present law which will make it obligatory
upon the owner or owners, in fee or for life,
Of every building occupied, and enumerated,

Collection of uandkercb,efs,

Tourists returning from abroad report
a new fad which has, for the moment at least,
superseded the erstwhile popular craze for
souvenir spoons; instead milady now col
lects dainty handkerchiefs. From the days
of Josephine 10 the present the handker
chief has been an important item in the ex-
penditure of fastidious woman. A. good
dresser considers her toilet incomplete with
out bit Of snowy lawn or linen, which,
though scarcely ever seen, and it may be
severely plain, must yet be above reproach
with regard to fineness Of texture. An in
veterate globe-trotter, who has just return
ed from the other side, rejOices in an ex-
quisite collection of these ,cobwebby moth
ings. At every city or town where she
stopped, no matter how short her stay or
how insig nificant the, Village, another
square of linen was faithfully added to her
spoils, and, curiously enough, she readily
recalls where each was purchased. So that
her handkerchiefs in measure serve her as
sort OF note book.
