TRADE IN WHEAT CONTINUES DULL.
Large Supplies and Heavy Russian
Shfpments n Drag.

CHICAGO, Dec. 4.-The wheat market for
the past week has been in many ways SINH
lar 10 that of the week before. There was the
same dullness of trading, amounting at times
almost to stagnatton, though business showed
some improvement toward the end of the
week. Weakness was quite pronounced and
a very material reduct on in prices took pace.
The range cf May was between 80 cents and
91b cents, yesterdays closing price, S9B
cents, being 3A cents lower than week
ago. December ranged between 99R cents
and "a cents, and closed yesterday at 80
certs, or a less for the week Of Az cents.
During the early part of the week prices suf-
fered the most The continued good demand
from millers and from abroad was apparently
lost sight of in the accumulated evidence of
big stocks as shown by the worlds shipments
and continued heavy receipts at the north
west receiving points
Heaviness of Russian shipments was a dis
agreeable surprise to holders and caused con-
siderable unloading. A peculiar feature was
the entire absence of deliveries of wheat on
December contracts on delivery day. This
was something that never happened before
in the history of the board and ii was the
generally expressed opinion that there will
be no deliveries until the close of naviga-
ton The market was helped late In the
week by the record breaking clearances, but
the slight advantages gained were lost on re-
ports of heavy forthcoming shipments from
Minneapolis to Chicago and on figures show

MOBILE, Ala, Dec. 4.-For four days past
the newly appointed postmaster, r. d. Bar
ker, has in vain endeayored to obtain posses

raised an entirely new point of law which
Inspector Tate says has neyer been raised

Postmaster Rapier's commission expires in
December, 1898. Mr. Barker was appointed
