MINNEAPOLIS MARKETS.
Grain Ruled Dull With Prices Fairly
Steady.

The market for wheat futures ruled dull
with prices for May moving slowly between
points about half cent apart during most of
the session The mfllers were slow buyers
1t would appear that the demand for wheat
was the smallest that it has been for a long
time. Sellers were everywhere doing all they
could do to get rid of their offerings but some
of the larger millers did not even show up on
change" Those who did took what little
they wanted on the regular basis of a quar-
ter OF cent over May price No. l north

wheat were 354 cars; shipments of wheat were

DECIDED CONTRADICTION IN THE
TOTAL OF THE DAYS DEAL
INGS.
THE MARKET WAS ECCENTRIC.
AFTER A WEAK OPENING A STEAD
TER TONE WAS SOON DEVEL-
OPED.
MONEY IS EASIER IN THE WEST.
An Inflow of Funds From the Inter.
ior Under Normal Conditions
Should Soon Begin.

NEW YORK, March 25.-There was a de-
cided contraction in the dealings in stock
exchange securities today. The continued
selling OF securities held abroad including
many of the choicest investment bonds. lends
special significance to the hardening ten
dency of the foreign exchange market and
there is expectation that further apprecia-
tlon IN exchange rates will induce the treas.
ury department to make a second call upon
the depository banks. Fortunately money is
reported easing up at the West and in other
secuons, and an inflow of funds to this center
from the interior should under normal condi-
tlons, soon begin. Tobacco figured for one
ntth OF an aggregate of 110, 600 shares sold to-
day, and only two other stocks, Sugar and
st. Paul. reached the 10000 mark. There
was practically no news of Importance bear
ing upon values, although an ingenious story
was circulated late in the day of an agree
ment on the part of the presidents of the
anthracite coal companies to abandon their
combination governing the price and pro-
uucuon Oh coal. 1t is needless to say that
there was no reflection of the report in the
prices of anthartic shares Chicago Gas
was strong on what appeared to be inside
puylng. The rise was attended by state
menus that the company has large sum in
hand available for dividend purposes To-
pacco sagged point at the outset, but sub
sequentiy more than recovered the loss. The
General market opened irregular, with the
International shares slightly higher Grang-
er stocks were helped by the substantial in
crease reported in gross earnings for the third
week. The market was irreguIarly weak

WASHINGTON, March 25.-Brig. Gen.

some time and during last summer suf-

o'clock, accompanied by his son, he
visited the building, but was immedi-
ately compelled to lie down, suffering
from excruciating pains in the stom-
ach, having been taken i'll before he
arrived at the building. A doctor was
summoned, who relieved him consid-
erabIy. and about noon the general was
taken to his home apparently very
much improved. The message announc-
ing his death was received at the
library shortly after o'clock, and was
a great shock to the officials there, with
whom he was very popular.

academy in 1S48, and was graduated
at the head of his class and appoint

fenses and field Notifications upon the
coast of Maine. Having passed
through the grades Of lieutenant and

he was breveted in March, 1865, lieu
tenant colonel and colonel for faithful
and meritorious services during the
war To him was committed the COM
pletion of the state, war and navy de-
partment buildings, the Washington
monument. the construction of the
medical museum and library, the erec-
ton of the monument over the grave
of President Jefferson, the monument
at Washingtons headquarters at New
burg, n. Y, the one to mark the
birthplace Of Washington, and the
Garfield statue and pedestal
From 1886 to 1888 he was president
of the board of engineers for fortifica
tions and other public works at New
York On July 6 he was appointed
brigadier general and chief of engi-
neers, and as such was charged by
act of congress in the following Octo-
ber with the construction of the con-
gressional library building.

CORDAGE COMPANY BEATEN.
Verdict for $125,OOO in Favor of
English Money LOancrs.

NEW YORK, March 25.-A verdict was
reached today in favor of the plaintiff for
S125, 900 in a suit tried before Justice Freed
man, in which Margoun & Co., of London.
sued L. Waterbury & Co., brokers, to recover
f25, 900, with interest. loaned by the plaintiff
to the defendant on Dec. q, 1892. Bonds and
securities were given for the loan, but the
defendant refused to pay on the ground that
the loan was made on behalf of the National
Cordage syndicate, which had failed. The
securities given for the loan became of little
value, according to the claims made by the
plaintiff when the National COrdage company
failed, and a demand for the repayment of the
money advanced was not complied with The
defendant claimed that William Wells & Sons
the Tucker & Carter Cordage, company, and
the Elizabeth Cordage company members of
the National Cordage company, were response
BILE for the debt. Allen McCulloch on behalf
of the plaintiff, argued that the syndicate was
not known in the negotiations for the loan
which was made to the defendant company
on its own responsibility. Judgments ag-
gregating $56, ,321 were filed today against
James NJ Waterbury and Chauncey Marshall,
members of the firm of L. Waterbury & Co..
cordage manufacturers, in favor of eleven
banks, all on notes made during 1893.

The Expected Advance In Lake Su-

CHICAGO, March 25.-The long-expected ad-

not long continue selling their product for
future delivery at existing figures and realize
the cost Of their metal. Furnaces situated on
Lake Michigan will pay 81 for ore this sea
