Local Quotations

Very little activity is observable in local
markets and quotations are consequently
almost unchanged. Poultry will soon be
bringing better price and the fact that
today is the beginning of the game season
under the California law will whet the
appetites of the lovers of birds and of the
four footed game that will soon be brought
in. The open season for Holsters or craw-
fish also begins today.

CHICAGO MARKET
Yesterdays Transactions on the Board
of Trade

CHICAGO, July 1.-Wheat opened
strong on an improvement of from A@1a
cent per bushel under the influence of an
advance of from SsQ7sd at Liverpool be-
fore trading commenced here There was
a good deal for sale at the advance, the
marketing of which caused the price to
drop to back to shade below the rate
current at the close yesterday Opening
sales of September were made at 6714@61as,
compared with yesterdays closing price
of CT. 1t sold almost Immediately to 671a.
and then long irregular decline ensued,
the market resting at 66SsM66% about IL
o'clock. The days statistical develop
ments helped the bulls also. Chicago re-
ceived 81 carloads of wheat, five of which
were new, against 102 carloads of new re-
ceived the corresponding day of the year
before, and 4,500 bushels of spring wheat
were inspected out of store since yesterday
morning. Minneapolis and Duluth got 1874
cars, compared with 273 the similar day
of last year. The aggregate receipts at.
Sioux City,. st. Louis, Detroit, Toledo and
Chicago were 1903, 500 bushels, compared
with 1862, 900 bushels last year. The clear
ances of wheat and flour from Atlantic
seaports were again small, equaling 49,
900 bushels. The market here rallied easily
from breaks and broke again with nearly
equal facility, but efforts to get the price
permanently to yesterdays closing hgures
were unaVail1ng. After ltS Hrst uecllne,
September again rallied to shade over
CT and was 671s when Bradstreets visible
was made known. This showed de-
crease in Europe and af1oat of 350O,ON
bushels and in this country of 1,446,OO
bushels, or within trifle of 100000 bush
els of the total decrease. causing quick
rise to 671a, but 1t dropped again to 81 in the
following ten minutes. That was the price
asked at the close. In corn, the favorable
,1z4f iFr10r Mt n
incline toward the selling side. The firm
ness Of wheat. however, acted as con-
slant restraint on short selling, and the
market recovered part of the early loss
later in the day. The market for oats
was dull and inclined to sympathize with
corn. Provisions started steady, but soon
became radically weak. Buying orders
became heavier when wheat recovered
late in the day and part of the loss was re-
covered.

FOR TOBACCO EXAMINERS.

Washington, Nov. 16.-The govern
ment examiners of tobacco at several of
the more important ports of entry in the
United States by direction of the Secre-
tary OF the Treasury met in conference
in New York recently with view to
the adoption of a uniform practice in the
classification of imported tobacco. The
report of the conference, which has
reached the Treasury Department,
makes three recommendations, as fol-
lows:
First, that 25 per cent Of all marks of
every invoice of imported tobacco should
be examined and that the rule for the
present be limited to tobacco imported
from the West Indies, Mexico and South
America; second, that the percentage of
wrappers found in filler bales be reach
ed by the count of leaves; third, that
the districts from which tobacco is i'm
ported be marked On the invoice where
ever practicable.
These recommendations will be adopt-
ed by the Treasury Department.

AUSTRlA'S DEMAND MUST BE NET BY
TO-DAY.
Abdul Ramid Apparently Refuses, Being, il is
Said, Afflicted With Case of
Bighead,

London, Nov. lit now appears that
the statement made yesterday in spe-
cal despatch from Vienna that the
Turkish government, in reply to the de-
mands of Baron De Calice, the Austro-
Hungarian Ambassador to the Porte,
had agreed to salute the Austrian flag
after dismissing the Vail of Adana, and
the Mutessaril of Mersina, for indigni-
ties offered to the Austrian Brazzafolli,
was premature. The Porte has not yet
yielded to the Austrian demands.
Dispatches from Vienna announce
that up to midnight, Tuesday, no intima-
ton had been received of the intention
of the Turkish government to dismiss
the offending officials, or to salute the
flag. If, however, the Austrian demands
are not complied with by noon tomorrow
(Thursday), Baron De Calice will leave
Constantinople and the Austrian war
ships will lombard Mersina.
The Vienna correspondent of the
Times says:
1T is now expected that the Sultan
will hold out until the last moment, and
then yield, which may appear to him
clever stroke of diplomacy and some
thing for the Turkish press to boast of
Senl-VIctoryof the HadlShan over the
Christian powers. Eventually, however
it is likely as not to prove an unmitigat
ed blunder, the consequences of which
win become manifest in the course o1
time.
Abdul Hamid is evidently just now
in a frame OF mind calculated to inspire
serious concern. HIS easy victory oyel
the Greeks, together with the indul
gence he was accustomed to expect from
Germany until lately, completely turned
