In the key book In the possession OF the

by him to translate the message. Inc system
by which all this is given In two WORDS Is
one of extraordinary completely, but the caDle

above ten minutes would be occupied either IN
sending or transating this two-word message:
In the Office Of representative Broad street
firm four clerks are employed In the cable

From ten to fifteen messages from dli1erent

In the single-word message the saving is

portance of this saving can be gathered from
the fact that by one route the cable rate to
Cartagena, in Colombia, is 1919 per word; to
Puerto Cabello in Venezuela, $3.15 per

MARKET SUMMARY.

FINANCIAL.


CHICAGO, May s.-Wheat today not only
recovered the lie decline of yesterday but &c
besides. A strong Liverpool market, follow
ing yesterdays local weakness, and exceed
1ngly unfavorable crop reports, created an al
most unanimous desire to buy, and the mar
ket was strong from the start Corn ana
oats each improved Nc. Provisions started
well, but wound up with slight loss Wheat
was wanted at the opening at an advance
Of about 1ac over yesterdays closing. The
| trouble was that for half an hour every one
in the pit appeared anxious to buy and they
had to continue bidding nc higher for every
fresh lot. They We're hard to satisfy, now
ever, for, after keeping at it for half an
hour, during which time July rose from 7O7sc
and Tic at the Immediate opening, to 72ssc,
and, after resting a while, they recommended
after 1Ac reaction, the result being that July
rose in the course of the next hour to 729sc.
The reasons for the advance were numerous.
The Michigan crop report made the codi-
ton for the state 49, as compared with 81
month ago, and go May 1 last year. That
and steadiness at Liverpool, where a decline
had been looked for, was all that could be
found at first to account for the buying
which was going on. Later in the session,
| when the people who had received dispatches
from San Francisco began to show them
around the real substantial and justifabie
cause for the eager buying made pain.
Serious deterioration Of a possible &C, 1000, 600
Blu crop, in addition to the precarious position
of winter wheat on this side of the Rockies,
naturally aroused speculative sentiment of a
bullish character. Later the market quieted
down. At the advance considerable wheat
which showed good profits, put the
market, and by closing time reaction to
72Ac had taken place.
Corn opened steady and turned strong. July
opened unchanged at 245sc, sod up steadily
to Csc. and closed at 24Bc. Oats ruled quiet
but firm. July started shade higher at

But He May be Repaid.
"Novelists have always taken liber-
ties with the funny little old women,
said the insurance agent, but I've had
my experience with one in real life, "
says the Detroit Free Press. "She hap
pened to be going from one depot to

and had no hesitancy in asking me to
lend her my arm, precisely as though

soon learned from a friend whom l

up her mind that 1 had stolen it. When

MINNEAPOLIS GRAIN.

MINNEAPOLIS, May 8-The local wheat
market opened higher and strong this morn
ing on encouraging cables and developed into
very active and hsgher market quite early
with constant tendency upwards till INC
advance for July wheat was scored. The ad-
vance meant good-szed profit for holders
and they began to realize causing slight
recession in prices. Large quantities were
thrown on the market, but were quickly alb
sorbed by strong parties who had faith in yet
higher prices later on. AS consequence the
decline was confined to about nc I'D to Is
minutes of the close. The undertone of the
market is remarkably strong, and there are
those, and not few, who predict much
higher prices during the coming week. Short
stocks are becoming to be recognized and bad
winter crop prospects not ignored. The posi-
ton is strong. The commercial gossip Of the
day was rather meager, but generally of good
quality from bull standpoint.
Northwest reports are generally favorable
and much better than yesterday from the
extreme north, because of light rains, which
were much needed. 1t is generally believed
that clearancs from now will be much larg-
er because of Duluth and Chicago shipments
showing up at the seaboard for that pur-
pose. July wheat opened at 7lAc, against
