THE BOOTH PAMTLF QUARREL.
Projected Meeting Between darlington
and His Sister on for the Present.

NEW YORK. March 31.-The following
statement was given out by Commander
and Mrs. Ballington Booth at the Bible
House tonight; when Commissioner
Emma Booth-Tucker landed on Saturday
last she was met by a letter from Com
mander Booth, I'm which he stated that
having heard through the press that she
desired 10 see him, he was willing TO meet
her at her convenience. Mrs. Booth
Tucker objected TO the stipulation that
they have a witness present. She insisted
that the meeting must be private, with
out any witness OF their choosing. Com
mander Booth then explained over the
telephone that, in view OF the fact that
his previous interview with London rep
resentatives had taken place without any
witness other than Mrs. Booth, and had
been misquoted by them in consequence,
his version having even been deliberately
branded by Mrs. Booth false, he felt
they had made a private interview impos-
sible."
The meeting between brother and sister
is off, at least for the present. Commits
sloner Carleton said tonight that Bal
lington Booth insisted on witness, his
physician, DIR. McKelway. of Philadel-
phia, being present. Mrs Booth-Tucker
replied to this by saying that If they met
as brother and sister, she saw no need Of
a. third party being present.

Newspaper Mail l. Sent by American
Line Steamers.

Line
WASHINGTON, March 31.-For the
first time in the history OF the service the
Postofice Department is now drawing a
distinction between the means Of carry
ing letter mail and newspaper mail TO
points across the Atlantic. Unless spe-
cially designated, Prints" or newspa-
per mail IS being sent only on American
line steamers. Letter mall Is dispatched
by the first outgoing steamer. The ac-
ton is due TO the recent contract made
by the Postofiice Department with the
American line, which is paid 81 per out
ward mile on all its steamers, without re-
gard to amount carried. All other trans
Atlantic lines are paid on the basis O.
weight Of mails carried. The American
line now sends steamer every Wednes-
day morning from New York TO South
ampton, which carries the accumulation
of newspaper mail for the week previous.
The only exception 10 this is in the case
of newspapers specially marked to go by
a certain steamer. I'm which case IL Is
invariably forwarded as directed, II pos
sible Prints for Great Britain and Ger
many are excepted from this arrange
ment. The scheme has provoked consd-
cradle criticism from the addresses OF
this class or mails, ana a NUMBER OF COM
plants have been lodged at the Postoffice
Department The officials, however, say
that the ARRANGEMENT will continue. as
the American liners receive their stlpu-
lated payment whether any mail is car
red or not, while extra compensation is
required on all the other Atlantic liners.
The Cunard line, however. carry the
newspaper mail for Great Britain and
Ireland only without special designation,
as also do the German lines for Germany
Only.

CHICAGO MARKET.

CHICAGO. ILL. April i.~There was
a well founded complaint at the dull
ness OF wheat trading to-day. There
was no outside business of any conse-
qucncc. and the dealings Of the local
account did not approach the proportions
If ordinary activity. Nevertheless. the
market was professionally strong all
day. At tho opening some gossip OF
dry weather in portions Of Kansas was
nut In circulation. but IT was generally
conceded that conditions in that State
were such that longer drought would
have TO prevail before there could be
any decided menace 10 the crop. May
wheat opened from 633sc. to 65Ac., sold
between 63%c. and G35sc., closing at o544
G6s7kc., &C. higher than yesterday. cash
wheat was firm and &c. per pushel
lhgher.
Corn-The corn market improved In
price through the strength commune
Gated by wheat. but the amount OF busi-
ness transacted was extremely light ana
the action slow in the extreme. Scalpers
and traders in privileges kept alive the

otherwise displayed was decidedly small.
Nobody expected trade TO amount 10
anything. consequently there was no
disappointment felt. May corn opened
at 2eIkc, advanced to 29Sd.y},c., where
Il closed, nc. higher than yesterday.
Cash corn was steady.
Oats had quiet session, with prices
ruling steady to firm throughout. The
strength naturally came from wheat,
there being nothing new In the situation
TO warrant either an advance or de-
cline. Cash oats were steady TO &c
higher.
Provisions recovered the loss OF yester-
day. shorts being notably active as buy
ers. whilst the sanguine bulls. who al
WAYS maintain their faith In better
things. were asscuous in telping along
the advance. The hog market furnished
no encouragement, however. as 1t was
&c. lower. The strength displayed by
wheat was partly responsible for the
Improvement. AT the close May pork
was 2J627l5c. higher than yesterday
May lard ~. higher. and May ribs lOc'
