MARKETS BY TELEGRAPH.
In Wall Street.

New York, July 2t-Business at the stock eXchange was less active today being 2s7.- 7Sl shares against 3iS,O5i shares yesterday.
 The bond market, however, was decidedly more active, S2,914000 changing hands, of which S1,0i4,000 were Atchison issues Bos- ton houses were the largest buyers of these bonds.
 The stock market ruled firm until the last hour, when the sharp rise in wheat. due tion in prices. In the early dealings Read ing, Jersey Central. the Changers and the trunk lines were all in demand. Reading The story was that the Earle-Olcot com pany was about to announce the progress made ,,reorganzing the property. but the council of the committee denied this. Peo- pie in touch with the coal trade ignored these statements and said the real reason is because of the progress making for the establishment of the industry on paying basis. The work is being conducted quietly, hear of it until the matter is finally and definitely adjusted The Changers were again bought by insiders and all touched and Chicago Gas were strong early in the day, but were weak at the close. Leather was strong throughout and advanced F to IFS for the common and 31s to SS for the preferred. The rise in the stock was due to the covering of a latent short interest. Sugar first rose to 114as on buying for lower Wan street interests and then returned to 56lsd56Ss. The gain at the start was due to uncont1rn,ed rumors that the company had ulSCONtTeu lHc way u pay ulNluenQS WlIn- out breaking the law. In the last hour the reported damage to spring wheat led to sales to realize profits and prices ran off A to 1A per cent. The closing was rather weak. Net changes show net losses of A6D B per cent. The anthracite coalers, how ever, gained 1s to per cent. Leather pre- ferred gained 3 and New England 3% per cent on the day. ,o The largest transactions Chicago Gas S6.100; Atchison, 2olOO, and St. Paul 15.600.

Chicago 'Change.

Chicago, July N-A gain or fasM42ic in wheat in single session is something of ord of today's trade in that cereal.

Right at the close second bulge took place and while it was equally rapid as the earlier ones 1t was in measure looked for and occasioned less surprise. A great quantity the shorts interest being. therefore. en- larged. Wheat opened this morning al about Ac advance, the opening quotations showing appreciation under the influence of frmer cable than expected and the light winter wheat movement.
 When the early spurt was over the mar ket assumed quieter appearance. but the undertone was strong and it took but little buying to start the panicky condition. September wheat opened from 6SA to GShc. advanced to 72lac and closed at 72Ac, ,4ssn4Ac higher than yesterday. Cash wheat sold a Sc advance over yesterday, the nominal close being 41sc higher.

sun,s cotton Review.


 New York, July 24.-zThe SuHs cotton re- view says: Cotton declined ! 10 points. but rallied and closed only 1 point lower for August, unchanged for September and October, and l point higher for the day on some of the later months, ending steady with sales running up to 1s0,5 800 bales, the best days business in some time. New Or leans declined to points, but recovered the loss Liverpool declined 1-32d on the spot and 9ls points for full delivery, closing barely steady with spot sales of 1000 bales. In Manchester yarns were weak; some business was done in cloths at low prices.
 Port receipts 259 bales, against 33i bales last week, 267 bales for the same day last year.
 Exports were 5iis bales, mostly to Great Britan, all from New Orleans.
 Spot cotton here was quiet and uil5 changed. Middling uplands 7c; sales 702 bales for spinning
 The southern spot markets were gener- ally quiet and unchanged. New Orleans WAS easy, but without auotable change, and the sales there were liberal, being 25OO bales. St. Louis declined 1-l6c and Augusta ad vanced partially 1-16c.
 Today's features: For time prices de- clined today owing to the heavy fall in Liverpool; depression in Manchester favor able crop advicos from Alabama, South Carolina, Mississippi and Louisiapa and report that Neals of London had estimated the crop from S.000.000 to 9.00J00 bales. The continent sold heavily and Liverpool sold to a moderate extent. The outlook for the crop has improved in Texas. except in the southeastern portion, where rain is needed. The conditions are favorable in Tennessee, Georgia and the uplands of Arkansas These are the advices given in the government report for the week. Yet before the close the market rallied sharply owing to the good buying, partly, it is supposed, for Wall street account. Inman, Swann X Co. are said to have bought 10 some extent and there was also more less southern buy ing. so lhat the market took on q stronger appearance in the afternoon and some of the later months closed a trife higher than last night. That the sudden jump of 4c in wheat made some of the bears in cotton nervous and the continuation of heavy rains in parts of the southwest, where they are not needed, did not hurt the mar ket any.

The Honolulu Advertiser, which
has just arrived, clears up the mys-
tery which has long puzzled the
officials as to an entry. in the ex-
queens diary, stating that on the
DAY specified. Cleveland's present had
been received b. her. 1t was at
oIcc denied here that the president
ever sent Il present to the eX-Qucen.
The Advertiser now explains that
AIRS. Donini received copy Of the
report of the board Of public works
at Chicago for 1892. Some one had
taken the trouble to cover it hand
soInely in cloth and had. also pro
cured personal cards from Cleveland
and Gresham. The cards, the
papers say were placed inside the
volume with q suitable statement
regarding it. The ex-queen did not
doubt the gcluincss Of the present or
suspect that some practical joker had
been at work and accordingly made
ali entry in her diary.
