CHICAGO MARKETS
The Days Transactions on the Board
Of Trade

CHICAGO, May 14.-1n wheat the more
than indifference of Liverpool to the l.
cent per bushel advance here yesterday
caused weak opening. The foreign mar
ket opened easy for futures, without much
change in prices, but by 10 o'clock noted
q decline of Id per GENITAL That was the
most important and influential feature of
the early news, and had the effect nat
urally due to it. July wheat. which closed
yesterday worth 74h opened with sellers at
73A, down to 731z. During the first hour
the tendency was toward recovery, July
touching 74A at one time, but there was
wheat for sale on every recovery and that
continued to be the condition OF things
during the remainder of the afternoon.
Northwestern receipts were S46 cars,
against 3n the preceding Friday and "a
the corresponding day Of the year before
Chicago received carloads and with
drawals from store were $4,000. The clear
ances Of wheat and flour from the Atlantic
seaboard were light, only 62.000 bushels in
wheat and -four together. The only help
ful matter to the bulls was the the quantity
withdrawn from Chicago warehouses
The market began to weaken about the
middle OF the day. and got down to 7s
for July about II o'clock. Previous to
that the fluctuations had been kept within
the range Of 7Sh and 74z. Closing cables re-
ported Liverpool from l penny to ND
lower for futures and steady to Nd lower
for spot. Afer declining to 72N, It was
discovered that considerable cash business
had been done here for shipment east and
New York for export. The quantity sold
here was $4,000 bushels, 10000 bushels 60
ing east by lake and the remainder in
different directions by rail to country
mills. On that information the price re-
covered to 73A and closed at 73M.. Corn was
very dull and not SO much wanted by shorts
as Of late. The market for oats was dull.
with an easy feeling at the close. Pro-
visoions were dull and easy throughout.
Heavy receipts Of hogs west caused the
opening decline. and the market hardly
moved from the quotations then made.
English houses were prominent sellers.

Bradstreet's Stock Review

NEW YORK, May 14.-Bradstreet' >
stock review tomorrow will say: Specu-
lation in securities has become simply an
exchange Of contracts between profess
sional operators, and 1t is also somewhat
evident that the large class Of stock market
traders are inclined to wait and take little
general interest In the proceedings. I'm.
certainty about the income on the tarifi
Is principal factor In inducing the lesi-
tating spirit and at the end of the week the
revival of the Cuban question at WASH
ington in form which, 1t is thought, may
result In action by congress or the axecu-
tive, or the additional possibility of en-
broilment with Spain has had further
depressing influence. The more cheerful
tone of the London and continental mar
kcts on the belief that the war between
Greece and Turkey would he brought TO
an end by the powers was reflected here
early in the week. 1t did not. however,
result In any improvement IN the foreign
interest IN Americans, and advices from
abroad go so far as to state that the public
professionals in London are inclined to ig-
rore our securities. At the same time there
has been some foreign buying here, pre-
sumably for continental account, which
was mainly confined to an inquiry for low
priced stocks and bonds Of recognized
roads. Union Pacific shares figured more
or less in this connection. The gold ship
ments for the week amounting to 81, ,75O, 900,
are naturally regarded as unfavorable,
showing as they do that despite the lower
level Of exchange 1t Is still possible for
continental governments and bankers to
attract specie from this side. Among the
favorable factors of moment, the spring
wheat outlook deserves the first place and
is apparently responsible for the show Of
stre0gth made by the granger stocks.
Western railroad men are quoted as being
sanguine over the prospective magnitude Of
yield and tho street couples this fact
with belief that large foreign demand
for breadstuffs will result in relative
higher prices and thus benefit the agri-
cultural west. The buying Of stocks has.
however, been of very limited descrip-
tion and commission houses are very idle,
thus showing plainly that the public is out
of the market. While the selling has been
mainly for short account, 1t is also thought
that the revival Of the Cuban question has
brought out quite large amount of long
stock held for speculative account. On
Friday the market was limited and dull,
prices declining on small transactions. At
the close there was somewhat better tone
and slight recovery on intimations that
the seriousness of the Cuban situation has
been exaggerated.

ing.
The attendance at the morning ses-
sion was not large. The weather was
intensely cold. In the afternoon the

with men and women eager to hear
Miss Anthony deliver the annual aG-
dress as president. She was given an
ovation which moved her visibly. She
spoke of the welcome which had come
after years of labor in a cause once un-
popular but now gaining strength. She
reviewed the work during the past
year. the admission of Utah as q state
of equal rights for men and women,
and Of the victory for the cause in
Idaho, first in popular election and
afterward in the supreme court of the
state. Miss Anthony said that the
time had come when the suffragists
must recognize wise political methods
and not depend upon generalitics. She
said that the cause was never stronger
than it is now with four states in line.
Before she laid down the work to
which her life has been given she
hoped to see the stars OH the suffrage

IN STRICKEN INDIA
KEENEST DISTRESS AMONG THE
PEOPLE Of THE LOWER CASTE.
Only Saved From Starvation by the
Government Relief Work-Many
Cattle Die for Lack of Fodder
Prisons Fall of Thieves Who
Have Been Captured While stcal-

Copyright. 1897, Associated Press)
Bijapur. Presidency of Bombay. Jan.
2S.-The special correspondent Of the
Associated Press who is visiting the
distressed provinces Of India has ar
rived at Biiapur. about 245 miles
southeast of Bombay. and finds in this
district the kecncst distress. especially
among the people of the lower cast.
These are OH the verge of starvation
and are only saved from it by the gov
crnment relief work which enables
them to earn enough money to Mt least
keep body and soul together while
awaiting the brighter state Of affairs
which recent rains are expected to pro.
vide later in the year.
1t is estimated that fully One-tenth Of
the cattle in this district have already
pcrislled from lack of fodder. and the
loss from this cause will undoubtedly
be considerably increased between now
and the growing of the new crops.
There are many gangs of robbers en-.
gagged in pillaging grain stores wllen-
ever an opportunity arises. and the
prisons are full of thieves who have
been captured while stealing grain.
Among the masses there are many
cases of illness, arising from lack of
proper nourishmcnt and emaciation,
and it is regarded as certain that chol-
era will reach this district sooner or
later owing to the carelcsslless of the
people. Beyond doubt the utmost re-
sources of the government will be
taxed before long in the efforts which
will have to he made to cope with the
steadily increasing distress.
