Chicago, April 22.-The wheat market to-
day to a high degree was nervous, with the
trade almost professional. The feature was
the widening of May uly diff erences, which
at one time amounted TO nearly full cent.
Considerable variance was shown in the
Liverpool cables, which, however, were all
the lower for futures. The local crowd
was moderately bullish early, and on Ie-
ports of unfavOrable weather In France and
Russia, May wheat was advanced to74 81.
First trades were all the way from IA S
to II 1-2, as against the previous close OF
73 5-S. At the advance there was heavy
selling Of July wheat, which weakened
that feature and caused one of the sudden
breaks which have been characteristic of
the days business. In the rally which
followed the break of May to 73 IA,
Schwartze, Dupee and Baldwin, Farnhum
were heavy sellers There were reports
from the northwest, telling of better seed
ing conditions, but the weather bureau
reports rain in the west and northwest
Northwestern receipts were considerably
larger than a week ago and year ago,
but to offset this the northwestern niIlers
report an excellent demand for flour.

was also quitea heavy play on Sweet Avon

after going a sixteenth and was never
afterward headed, winning os he pleased

who made good bid for the place, half
length for second money.
While Declare was favorite throughout
the betting on the fourth race, there was
great diversity Of selection for place
honors. Emotiopal, who was at first
supposed to be nearly as good as the
favorite by many, receded from evens for
the place to 10 l. Louise N, was heavily
played to he second, and Lansdale was not
without followers for the same.
Louise n. behaved very badly at the
post, las hing out with her heels at every
thing in sight. She nearly struck the as
sistant starter. After three breakaways,
Louise n. getting off second to Emo
tional, raced into the lead, but was
headed at the half by VIII Elliott, In the
stretch Langdon came on with a promis-
ing burst of speed. but died before the
wire was reached. Sims held the race
safe with Declare. who came aw ay
from the ruck when called upon and
won with ease. Louise n. came again in
the stretch and landed second money by
six lengths from Lansdale, third. Declare
was lame after the race.

Thackeray was held equally as high for

was neglected in the betting
The race was a repetition of last Sat
urday's. Thackeray laid close to Forget
all the way, leading on sufferance for three
quarters, but the Hitchcock mare always
held him safe, and, coming on at the last
turn, drew away and won by six lengths
in 500, q second faster than the track
record made by Flushing last November
Thackeray was second by ten lengths, and
Buckeye finished an eighth of a mile
ahead of Ecarte, who refused the fourth
jump. and was taken back and forced over

The effect Of the war seems TO have
spent itself as far al the stock market is
concerned. 1t is doubtful II any move
mert of the market yesterday was due
to any appreciable extent to news from
Greece. The market showed no decided
tendency, and though prices We're
little off from the opening, in most in
stances the variance was SO slight as
certainly not to indicate any strong
tendency Most of the people who have
been following the situation at the seat
OF war with reference to any possible
influence it might have Oh the stock
market, are contending now that the war
can only be settled in one way, and that
speedily in favor of Turkey. There are a
great many sympa thizers with the Greeks
among the newspaper men, and the head
lines on the War news are colored by
sentiment. If one reads the dispatches
they all seem to point one way. a quick
ending Of the war will leave the queS-
tion undecided whether great war would
have made the stock market boom or fail.
Mr.. f u. Carley of the monetary trust
says of the war situation as to its effect
on our market:
The Greeks are somewhat in the posi-
tion of the Southern people in our Civil
War, and the Turks may find it more
difficult to overcome them than the Eu-
ropean spectators have imagined. 1t is
probable that within day or two there
will be reaction in sentiment in regard
to prompt ending of the war. Pending
such possibilities, it is difficult for the
market to extricate itself, and leaves it,
as far as transactions are concerned,
open to bear attacks.
The greatest break yesterday was in
Western Union. Many shrewd traders were
selling it. Moore & Schley sold. There
seems to be no more than the usual reasons
for this, although the story of thereyolution
in telegraphy published in the papers yes
terday may have had some effect in help
ing the break. 1t is the opinion OF great
many clcar-headed people that Western
Union is not long to be the monopoly that
it has been II the past. You hear telephone
talk frequently and dinsistently. If this new
telegraph system capable of sending goo
words a minute has anything OF fac. in it,
it will certainly be a very serious matter
for the Western Union people on general
principles The good advice would seem
to be ID sell Western Union.
1t is the talk about town that the Sugar
people are TO be even worse treated before
the tariff bill becomes a law than the
original Dingley bill would have treated
them, and this talk is telegraphed over to
New York. Prices may be expected to
fall little yet, before the permanent rise

fered to sell the pocket book to him.
Constable Joseph Gilbert and Justice
John 7. Burton testified that Grant
claimed to have bought the pocket book
in New York.
Squire w. s. Steelman testified that
Grant came to him saying he wanted the
matter patched up. In the course of the
conversation he asked Grant WHY he took
the pocket book. Grant replied-''The
Devil was in me, Is all l know" "Why
didn't you return il? I" then asked Steel
man. Grant replied he would if he hadn't
been drunk.
For the defence Grant took the stand
and told that be found the pocket book
empty on the pavement of Green street,
just in front of the Carlton house yard.
He sold 1t to Apologize, but didn't know to
whom it belonged till he was arrested.
