CHICAGO GRAIN AND PRODUCE.
Close of the Wheat Market Was Wild
Prices Advance.

Chicago, Aug. 1S.-In wheat, traders
were treated to a surprise at the out
set by the action of the Liverpool mar
ket, which was totally unaffected by
yesterdays sharp advance here, and
before the local opening even showed
an advance. This was due, it was said,
to buying in England by the continent
of cargoeS of California wheat. New
York also reported numerous accept
ances of last nights cable offers. Sep
TENDER which closed yesterday at $3.50
S34, was wanted at the opening at
from S5M to S5A, and sold sparingly at
S53s at about the same time. There
was naturally a great deal of wheat
for sale at so radical an advance. and
before sellers fell again into a minor
ity, the price had reached to S41S. From
that point it began another climb and
went higher than before ere it reached
another hating place. Principally to
the poor crop reports from the north
west was due the second advance Not
only were the spring returns OF what
was harvested disappointingly light,
according to these reports, but that
part of it still standing has deterior-
ated considerably in the last three
weeks. Fields in North Dakota that
three weeks ago looked like producing
from 20 to % bushels, cannot from
present appearances yield over from II
to Is bushels, and the average for the
best part of the state, where the wheat
is still growing, is now put conserV-
atively at not over IL bushels.
September advanced to 855s before
the realizing was sufficient to send the
price down again. Then for some time
the market fingered around S51s @S5A-
Chicago receipts were 1873 cars and 203,-
600 bushels were inspected out of store.
Minneapolis and Duluth got ia car
loads, compared with $50 week ago,
and 346 the corresponding day OF last
year The primary markets in the
west received a total of $4,000 bushels,
compared with 657 900 bushels on the
like day, 1895. Exports from the ATTAIN
tic seaboard were equal in wheat and
-four to 665, 900 bushels.
The sensation of the day was the
great advance in the Paris quotations.
The August delivery fiF equal to SIC
per bushel higher than it closed on
Saturday last. December February
term was quoted one franc, or the
equivalent of SIC per bushel higher.
The effect on the market was felt
Immediately, the pit filing with anx-
ious shorts, and the price jumped to
SEC in a very few minutes. Even al

New York, Aug. 1s.-A special to the

curator of the Royal Geographical so
ciety, says concerning the various re-
ports about Ardree and his balloon:
Anything regarding Andree is neces-
serily conjecture. We have no ground
for losing hope of his ultimate safety.
Andree is a man of infinite precaution,
his balloon is made of the best material
and his supplies are sufficient to last
him for a long period. Our faith in
him was increased by his exhibition Of
sublime moral courage last year in not
starting when the wind was unfayor-
able 1 see nothing impracticabIe in
his theory, though it is certain that his
proposed plan of reaching the north
pole has failed or we should have had
adviceS ere this. I think he must have
landed in some remote part of Siberia.
Notices have been sent to the natives
describing his balloon. and assuring
them that it is nothing supernatural,
but merely sails the air as ships sail
the sea. l will not abandon hope even
though nothing should be heard of him

OFFICIAL ANNOUNCEMENT.
Present Condition of the Ancient Or
der of Hibernians.

Savannah, Ga, Aug. 1S.-P. J. O'Con-
nor, national president of the Ancient
Order of Hibernians, has returned from
Baltimore, where he attended a con-
ference looking to the consolidation of
the two factions of the order in Geor-
gia, and has given the Savannah press
the only official announcement rSade
relative to the meeting.
In May, 1884, he says, "a split was
caused in the order by an amendment
to the constitution so that persons of
Irish descent through either parent or
otherwise qualified could become mem
bers. In August, 1884, the seceders
called the meeting in New York and
attempted to secure control of it's af-
fairs. Since then the courts in several
states have decided that the Ancient
Order of Hibernians of America, which
President O'Connor represented. is the
true and legal body"
President O'Connor thinks this eff
fectually seals the two factions. 1t
may take some time to formulate a
plan of union, but one will be formed
for the best interests of the entire
order.

point for all lands now under control OF
