He Held the Winning Hand.

They were having tho usual game of cards in the smoking apartment The travelling men swapped jokes, nailed lies and told bigger ones. The stranger who just sat in to fill out the game contrib uted nothing but smiles and an occa- sional general laugh to the social fea- lures of the occasion.
 Every once in a whilc jovial drum mer would announce that he had some poker i'll his hand, and an occasional side bet was made under the rules of the great American game.
 Finally one of these challenges elicit ed from the stranger an admission that poker was about the only game of cards of which he did not possess some knowl- edge, but he had rather peculiar hand, and because of the value it would have in other games he would just take a chance
 Bets wnre rapidly made until there was $150 in the pot, when a call was made, and the stranger awkwardly ask ed how many points his opponent had.
 "We don't count points, was the answer, "but I have four eights I rath- CT think that will take the plunder.
 "Well, declareI' gasped the stran- ger, as he leaned back and mopped his brow. "Here I am with high, jack, game, big casino, an ace, a run of five and a fush," as he threw down the ace, king, queen, jack and ten of dia- monds. 1T really thought I had you beat" and he showed the money toward the paraIyzed drummer.
 In the midst of the roar that followed "A royal fushp' was shouted by some one, and the stranger was hilariously assured that he had won. His surprised face never gave away so much as a chuckle until he was alone that night New York World

That effort to manufacture gold under the supervision of the Treasury experts proved failure, as was anticipated by them. The fact, however, that the gold mines of the world are turning out the precious metal in much greater quantities than ever before, and that the gold supply of the world is now being increased three times as rapidly as the population of the world increases, warrants the belief that the mercantile community will get along very satisfactorily even if the effort to make gold has proven a failure.

MARKET SUMMARY.
FINANCIAL.

CHICAGO, May N.-The wheat market was
weak and nfeess today Lower cables en-
couraged the bears and they maintained a
steady selling throughout the session, crowd
ing the closing figures to &c below those OF
yesterday. Corn was Independently firm on
covering by shorts and closed unchanged.
The same cause closed provisions at ad-
vances OF from 2la@10c, but oats followed
wheat and lost sc for July.
Liverpool opened ia lower, and had de-
clined I'D more before trading started here.
The drop was said to be owing to very favor-
able weather for wheat in the United King
dom. The weather here was chilly, and
therefore less suggestive Of activity among
the insect enemies OF the wheat plant Those
changes in the general surroundings were
apparently the cause Of from ls@&c decline,
with which July and September wheat start
ed here the former selling at the start at
from 7A@71o, and the latter 66&@6612c
Some buying orders came in from the North
west shortly after the opening, and that with
some buying against shorts, stead1ed the
market at the decline for the time. The
pressure of selling orders was kept up, how
ever and persistent dropping Of that kind
wore a fresh hole in the market, through
which the price dropped to 7O9sc. Chicago
receipts were II cars and 166 900 blu were in
received Ats cars, against 374 a week ago, and
295 on the corresponding day of last year.
Shipments from Duluth were 234, 900 blu. The
elevator stocks of Minneapolis estimated
to show a decrease of 550, COO bu for the week,
and Of Duluth a decrease of 250, 900 blu, or
100000 Blu at the two places together. The
most general estimate of the change in the
visible supply was 100000 bu The days
exports from the Atlantic seaboard amounted,
in wheat and flour together to about APO, 900
Blu. Closing cables reported Liverpool led
lower for the day. Paris and Antwerp, NJ
centimes higher; Berlin, u mark lower. Bust
ness was of very small local and profess
the break recorded above, kept close around
707sc during the remainder of the day, and
that the closing price.
In the pit, although trade was small,
and wheat weak. there more disposition
to buy corn, already short The days re-
ceipts, which were estimated yesterday at 316
cars, proved to number only 263. Exports
from the Atlantic ports were 213,s6o Blu. July
corn opened at 241sc and the range was from
24$sQ2412c to 249sc, and the closing quotations
was 247s@A5Sc. Speculative trade in oats was
slow. The feeling easy and prices
dropped off peg, largely in sympathy with
wheat. July opened at 1Sc, and after Nc
range closed at the opening figure. The
provision market was relatively the most
active of the speculative centers. 1t was
strong and highelX from the start. Much of
the buying thNIght to be for account Of
the Cudahy brotheis. The days run of hogs
was 24,0G0 head, 5000 under yesterdays
estimate. The number expected in tomor-
rows run is 1900. July pork closed 1Oc high

fact that the continent were free buyers at

throughout the morning session may be de-
few scalping transactions. The news of the
day, on the whole, was quite bearish from
nj! quarters, save Berlin taoes and seaboard
shipments. Nearly all crop news was favor
able except some items from Michigan and
Indiana. One of the agents Of the Decring
Harvester company, now travelling through
Michigan, says that n few more warm, dry
days Will decrease the crop prospect fully

Oklahoma has postponed harvest operations

quent better outlook for the growing crop.

NEW YORK, May H.-Evening Posts Lon
don financial cablegram: The stock markets
have grown quieter as the settlement ap-
proaches, but the tone today was distinctly
good. Consols hardened at the close ON the
success of the Indian loan. Foreigners were
strong, notably Turks. KafBrs, after period
of dullness, closed very strong. l learn that
a syndicate was formed some time back,
principally Of Berlin and Amsterdam capital,
with about $50, 900 pounds, to operate In kaf-
frs. At the beginning of the recent rise
about 100, 900 pounds Is said to have been laid
out on which huge profits have been taken
in the last few weeks. Such factor on q
bear market goes far to explain the recent
little boom in mines. The Paris and Berlin
