CHICAGO MARKETS
The Days Transactions on the Board
of Trade

CHICAGO. April S.-Yesterday's decline
IN wheat appeared to have brought out a..
that was for sale below &c cents and buyers
had to pay something over the figures men-
toned both for May and July deliveries.
During the greater part of today's session
whatever reason was given as the cause
which induced shorts to cover wheat pre-
yiously sold purchases of that sort, con-
stituted nine-tenths of the buying done In
the forenoon. The trading was neither
active nor of large volume. May opened
at 66A to 66A, compared with yesterday $
closing price OF 65ss. improved to 66ls and
declined from that to 65%. 1t began to i'm
prove after touching the latter figures and
rose once more to 661a. Rumors of some
country milling demand for spring wheat
was given as one reason for the generally
improved tone which rallied wheat again
after its first drop from around 66la for
May to 66%. Chicago received fifteen cars.
Minneapolis and Duluth received 263 cars
against 5S7 a week ago and 229 the cores
ponding day of the year before. The Gin
cinnati Price Current ventured TO estimate
the coming crop should It maintain ma NJ pres
ent conditions, at from 300 0000 900 bushels
to 310 900. 900 bushels. Atlantic port clear
ances of wheat and flour were equal to
$50 900 bushels. The reported export busi-
ness was moderate. May ABOUT % halr an
July at 66N. July sold at 66s4 earlier in the
day when May at the came time was bring
ing only 661a. During the last few minutes
enough reaction occurred to bring. May
down to 6s% and July to 6614 and $685.
which were the closing prices. Corn was
also somewhat stronger, influenced par
TALLY by the better tone in wheat. Shorts
covered in the oats market and were main
ly responsible for the firm feeling which
was the most important feature of the ses-
sion. Provisions, although starting weak,
soon firmed up and Joined in the general
advance.

But what l consider this physician excelled
in, so far as my case Is concerned, was in
the restoration of my eye service. Astigma-

affiicton in this respect, and, although
number of well-known skilled oculists in
some of the larger cities of this country
advised me I should always have to de-
pend upon glasses and receive but poor SER
vice even then. DR.. Wong Him's remedies
have enabled me to abandon totally the use
of any artificial help to sight, and my eyes
continue to give such service both for
near work and distant, as is truly wonder
full To the skill and remedies of the ply
sician named can alone be attributed rev.

gobbled them up that caught attention.
He caught one fly way over the foul line,
and 1t looked so improbable that he would
catch it that as he was running some
one shouted take a hack" He also got
two hits. but was unfortunate not to
score. Stahl is a pretty player, in that
he moves around nicely, and yet he could
not be accused for minute of grand
stand actions
Hughey Duffy played all around left
field and took everything that came near
him, Notwithstanding the fact that there
are several holes in the field. Duffy is
back In his old form again, and it looks
as II he will play better this year than
ever. He didn't do thing but get three
hits, and every one at time when they
were needed.
Howard Hipkins played good game all
around, and showed that he is one of the
best amateur ball players in Savannah. He
covered center field in good shape and let
the big team down for three hits in two
innings, which was not bad. He made
one man fan the gentle zephyrs, which,
by the way, were not gentle, meterologl-
cally speaking.
Boston scored one run in the first in
ming. Tenney hit to Brady, who muffed,
and Tenney went to second. Long hit
safe between first and second and Tenney
came home.
Savannah scored first in the third in
ming, when two runs were made, both of
which were earned. Harper got his base
on balls and stole second. Hopkins was
next and with three balls and two strikes
called, he hit the plgskin a good iIch and
sent it flying over the left field fence for
a home run, bringing in Harper.
Boston scored next in the fourth Sp-
ming. Long got his base on an errew' bf
Yeager's and was advanced to third on
Duffy's hit past second. Tucker hit safe,
bringing in Long and Duffy.
The big team got two more in the fifth
by Tenney hitting over short stop, Long
sacrificing and getting his base, both of
them stealing a base and coming in on
Duffy's hit.
In the eighth inning Tenney hit to left
field, which Brady muffed and Tenney
went to second. Long hit between first
and second and Tenney scored.
Savannah got two runs on their last in
ming and at one time it looked as If the
score might be tied Yeager got his base
on balls. Stivetts hit to Long, who let
the ball go through his legs and Stivetts
went to second and Yeager to third Gan
eel and Murray went out, but Harper hit
to Long, who fumbled, and Yeager and
Stvetts scored. Hopkins closed the game
on a hit to pitcher and out.
Jack Stivetts was not at all happy over
the result of the game and he feels sorely
having gone down with the colts But
Stvetts is dead game and he says Savan-
nah will win In Tuesdays game

Mother webb Looking After Their
Training.
Savannah is fast becoming the greatest
training ground in the south for northern
athletes. who come down here in the spring
when the weather is too sharp in their own
climate, and get in trim for the spring
and summer events.
With the Boston base ball team and
string OF the most noted cycle riders in
the world, the sport loving peop.e will
have an opportunity Of coming in contact
with athletes of world wide reputation and
seeing some good sport.
Jimmy Michael and Tom Cooper, with
Mother Webb, the trainer, and win c.
Pelot, the manager of the team, spent yes
terday at the track Webb had both
Michael and Cooper out and they did sew
eral miles Both of the cracks are in
good riding condition now. They have
been keeping up gymnasium work during
the winter months and have not allowed
their limbs to get stiff.
Michael, the little Welsh champion, is
but 20 years old. yet he stands as one Of
the most prominent figures in the racing
circles of the world. He is just five feet
one inch high, and weighs but a little
over 100 pounds. He pushes a 1o5 gear in
long distance and a IS in short distance
events. To push such high gear with
such light weight Michael must be one
bunch of muscles and strength.
Michaers record has been a series of
uninterrupted victories since his first big
win Of big road race in Britain in 1894.
In 1895. in Paris in a series of twenty
seven races, he lost but two events. In
