CHICAGO IARKEr LETTER.

Furnished by the Topeka Grain and stock
Exchange. Room .. Columbian Building.
Wheat opened firm at slight advance
over Wednesdays closing and immedi-
ately showed strength, advanced to 551sc
for the May option, remaining % to 55 1so
during the entire session.
A rumor was started here Wednesday
that a cargo of wheat that had been in
the boat all winter was being unloaded
to be returned to elevators again. This
was done by the bear element to cover
their short wheat on, and it was learned
later on that only 10000 bushels
was unloaded, and it was done
for inspection and is now being
reloaded and will go to Buffalo
on its original charter This was
shrewd bear scheme and fooled timid
longs into dumping their holdings on a
good strong advancing market causing a
slump of nearly a cent
Export clearances were large for two
days, especially as yesterday and today
we've holidays in the European markets.
Nineteen loads taken at New York
for export last evening and thirty re-
ported taken today since the market
closed.
Receipts are very light only IS cars
today and 30 for Monday. Crop dam
age reports are beginning to come in
again, caused by dry weather.
| 1t is claimed that the light
and the crop is now beginning to suffer
| by lack of moisture. There is not
single bearish argument left to work on
| and we are bound to see much higher
prices sooner OF later. The bears, who
nave been SO gay and aggressive for so
long, are now quietly covering their
short lines on every possible chance and
are liable to get punished severely before
their object can be accomplished.
We are friendly to the long side Of
wheat and firm believers in higher prices.
Corn opened steady with the big bears
led by Capt. Phillips, Partridge selling
an immense lot of July and May corn.
Capt. Phillips is reported to have sold
100000 bushels July corn on the open
ing. The market stood this hammering
very we'll, and it only slump off about
"a of a cent Offerings were absorbed
/ freely and the market did not weaken
! to any extent, and if we should get
good advance in wheat these fellows
that sold today will have some fun to
buy it back at higher prices, It is bad
is due. Oats were dull and feature
less and not much business.
Provisions were dull and featureless
with light business and narrow fuctua-
tons However the market had firm
undertone, and closed at slight ad
vance Hog receipts are falling off rap
idly, only 5000 in Chicago today and
only 10000 estimated for the next tive
days. and considerably less than 100000
for next week. We believe pork IS a
purchase to the extent of a bargain.
Armour and the pstkers are buying
everything ia sight m any decline and
we believe fancy prices will be reached
in pork, and advise buying the July op-
ton.

whom the Spanish government sent to
Cuba to put down the insurrectian, has

ern Cuba, had taken up arms against
Spain and sworn allegiance to the cause
of the revolution.
The fifteen Cuban revolutionary clubs
of this city met last night and dispatch
from Cuba was read
Resolutions approving the course of
the leaders thus far were adopted. 1t
was voted at several meetings to confer
with the local leaders upon the advis-
ability of calling mass meeting to raise
funds.
1t was also suggested that influence
might be brought to bear upon, the United
States in favor of recognizing the revo-
lutiOnary movement as belligerents,
thus removing the barriers to openly
forwarding arms, ammunition, recruits
and armed vessels from this country.

A Farm Near Pomona Visited by Fire
Causing Loss of $1,000.
POMONA, April 13.-The large barn and
residence of Clint Burtner who lives
mile east of this place were totally de-
stroyed by fire Thursday night The
meagre means for fighting the fire made
it impossible to prevent the spread of
the flames or even save all the stock in
the barn.
The barn contained number of horses
two of which persisted; large quantity
of grain, hay, etc, was also consumed.
The heat of the flames communicated
fire to the residence. which was closely
contiguous and it, too, was destroyed;
most of the contents were happily re-
moved.
The fire was caused by little child
playing with matches
The barn was the largest in the county,
80 by 125 feet, and we'll constructed. The
loss will be about $1,000, with no insur-
ance.

Mr.. Anthony who was a guest at the
reception, was called on for speech
aud responded with what is construed to
be an attack on the officers of the regu-
lar army.
In reference to the regular army the
speaker said there was no reason why
the veterans who fought for the safety
and preservation of their country should
not receive as full recog milton as regular
army officers, who after attaining GER
tain age are retired on three -fourths pay.
He here characterized the regular army
officers as drunken, extravagant sons
OF rich parents, and unworthy of the
recognition they receive from the gov
eminent
In speaking of the south he declared
the southern people take better care and
think more of their veteran soldiers than
does the north of hers. He dema nded
a fuller recognition of the old soldier
who fought for his flag, and concluded
with the somewhat astounding state
ment that he had come to the conclusion
that no man could vote any other than
the Republican ticket and be Ioval to his
country
Henry Shindler was then called for
He took occasion, however, to discIaim
statements made by the preceding
speaker and to enter a protest against
