Year.

CHICAGO, April 27.-The influence of the
opening of Russian ports and the consequent
heavy grain shipments from that country was
strongly felt in the wheat markets today and
July closed with net decline of 9sc. Corn
and oats were also weak, losing A@Ac and
&c, respectively. Provisions sold lower than
on any previous day In the season. Wheat
showed weakness all the session. The Rus
sian and Danubian shipments were enormous,
5,192, 900 bu. This made the total worlds ship
ments 7,43s.OOO bu The visible supply did not
show as large decrease as had been expected,
only 537, 900 bu, against decrease Of 2,805, 900
bu a year ago. Minneapolis and Duluth re-
cars today, compared with At last Monday
and 514 on the similar day of last year. Some
belated holder of May helped the forenoon
weakness by pressing 1t for sale, and helped
to widen the spread between May and July to
rs per cent. July wheat opened about ssc

NEW YORK, April 27.-The volume of busi-
ness in stocks today was fairly large and the
tone of the speculation was firm. The dis
tribution of business was Indifferent. Sugar
inquired for nearly one-third of the entire
dealings, and respectable amount of trading
was reached only by st. Paul in the railway
list. A favorable influence upon the market
at the outset was the receipt of London cables
showing advances in the prices of American
securities. Some commission house buying in
the standard railway shares was also noted
The stocks of the granger railroads were
strengthened by the favorable report of earn
ings OF the st. Paul and the Omaha for March
and the Louisville & Nashville for the third

were noted at times. The trading was at

MILWAUKEE, Wis, April 27.-The decree
of sale of the Northern Pacific railroad un-
der the consolidated mortgage of the Farm
ers' Loan and Trust company has been
decided on, and will be signed by Judge
Jenkins, of the United States circuit court,
in a few days. as soon as it is printed. Spe-
cial Master Alfred L. Cary will conduct the
sale and arrange the preliminaries as rap
idly as possible. All the different interests
have agreed to the decree. The matter was
settled in the United States circuit court
this evening. The sale is to take place at
West Superior, Wis, at the railway station,
at such time as shall be fixed by the spe
cial master. The Northern Pacific road will
claims against it, but there is no expecta-
tion that this will be done. The property
is to be sold in three parcels, for which
separate bids are - made, which must ag-
gregate not less than s12, 600.
A stipulation was agreed to this afternoon
and signed by all parties and approved by
the court. 1t, In effect, sanctions all the
payments that have been made by the re-
ceivers. The necessity of an accounting be-
away with and their disposal of moneys is
not to be further inquired into, beyond the
usual inspection by Master Cary. The stipu-
lation states that owing to the expectation
that decree of sale is about to be made, it
is desirable to avoid the expense and diff
Guilty attendant upon separation of the
funds, so that all payments made and to
be made are approved. The parties to the
stipulation, however, may withdraw at any
time.
Notwithstanding the apparent unanimity of
all the factions, there was decided objection
to the decree at this time, and In place Of
getting through with it and securing the
signature of the court in a few hours, it
promised to be a number of days before the
matter was satisfactorily arranged Judge
Jenkins evidenced considerable opposition to
the course adopted by the attorneys, and was
apparently determined to thoroughly dissect
the proposed decree, having ordered that it
be gone over section by section.
Before Attorney Turney had read the first
line today, Judge Jenkins proposed a change.
He remarked that the proceedings were
rather peculiar, and then he informed the
attorney that the court was yielding some
thing in considering the application for the
decree at all at this time.
