ON CHANGE
Conditions as Shown by Transactions
on Wall Street

NEW YORK, May 9-Probably today's
stock market owed its firmness and at some
points It's strength to the extraordinary
may wheat selling in this market at $40
bushels. before the middle of the month,
and with the July option almost there,
there is assured promise Of abundant dn-
bloodshed in Italy and Spain on account
of the dearriess OF bread, and the advanced
prices OF that necessity at other points in
europe are only too convincing evidence
tnat the nigh prices for wheat are not due
10 speculative manipulation, but to the
urgent need of foreign consumers. With
this demonstration of this country's DO
tential command of wealth, 1t was natural
tnat prices OF securities should continue
70 ADVANCE. But the market has to carry
the burden of an extensive liquidation Of
profits In many stocks, and of large selling
Tor foreign account, induced by the still
ness of money rates abroad. There was,
stocks which are usually most prominent in
the market. Sugar, Metropolitan Street
Railway and Manhattan suffered from spe-
cial causes Of weakness, and 1t was natural
from them through the list. Rock island
showed the most notable strength of any
railroad stock, and st. Paul was also we'll
sustained. Otherwise the Grangers were
great deal weighted with profit taking
sales; There were some sharp gains in
People's Gas, Pacific Mail and Atchison.
Tobacco lost all of its gain before the end
OF the day. There was general downwa rd
movement in the whole list of profit-taking
and bear pressure during the final hour.
which made the days changes extremely
irregular. Prominent stocks are shoWislg
some important gains, and others eoually
as prominent showed marked losses.

stocks, and was strong throughout. Total

CHICAGO MARKET
Prices and Prospects Of the Trade IN
Cereals

CHICAGO, May 9.-The Liverpool wheat
market today exceeded all previous efforts
at startling advances by opening "a. high
er for May and from ID. to Sd. up for July
compared with Saturdays closing figures.
This set the Chicago wheat pit into road
of nervous excitement at the opening. All
sorts of prices were paid for July stimuli
taneously in different parts OF the pit: 1t
was impossible for few minutes to get an
idea what price was predomnating, but
after a while the opening range, as near
as could be found out, was given at from
1:Os Ato 1.1oA. Trading between these
limits was enormous for two or three min
utes, but buying orders without limit to
price poured in from outside, and the price
leaped upward in great bounds, touching
LA for an instant. The market bounded
to 1.11%. Shorts saw that their only chance
tor recourse was by doubling, and prices
were no object. Up shot quotations again,
touching 116 ten minutes after the opening.
Another reaction to 1.131a followed, but Of
ferings were quickly absorbed, and the
market settled around 1.15.
Trading in May began at &c advance.
Letter sold little at LIS, causing a reac-
ton to 1.70, which, however, was quickly
recovered After a brief rest at 11:15 a..
M, the buying furore was renewed. A
wild scramble of European nations for
American breadstuffs was conclusively
shown by the announcement Of fresh bids
wheat. Up to the close he had not accept
ed the offer, but reported other sales of
$50 900 bushels to go abroad. The Liverpool
market at the close showed gains of Cd.
for spot and S7sQ9d for futures. Paris and
Antwerp accumulated the European short
age by advancing &c each. Near the end OF
the session offerings became shorter than
ever, and July rushed up to 1.21, easing of
at the close to 1.20A September. which sold
early at S9c, was rushed UP to CSC, and
closed .7c net higher, at 94Ac. No failures
were reported on change, but margin call
ing was sharp.
Corn act{ya and cbortc oo1ara5 <vo.
ly, with the strength of wheat as an in
centive. May gained csc, July &c.
Oats were neglected, but on moderate
covering advanced about 1 cent.
Provisions did not share to any extent In
the grain excitement. Backers sold moder-
ately at the advance. The closing prices
showed advances of 25 cents in pork, cents
in lard and 21e cents in ribs.

States, a spread-eagle over the barred
shield. The hat is of gray felt, with band,
cockade and pompon of the same color as
the facings.
The uniform combines the acknowledged
advantages of the old Confederate gray
with those of GOODNESS and durability. It's
color is such that it assimilates naturally
with any landscape, rendering men thus
clothed well-nigh invisible at short dis
tance. If it gets wet 1t dries quickly and is
not "soggy." 1t preserves fresh and nat
tyappearance, for it does not show dirt. The
boots for horsemen are a ng-anticipated
innovation; they are lighter and cooler than
the old black boot and, as they do not have
to be backed. may be kept in good condi-
ton, retaining a fresh appearance by occa-
sional greasing. 1t costs very little, NOT
more than one-fifth of the old regulation
blue, and is superior to that in every par
ocular. not even excepting it's looks. In only
one respect has fault been found with II.
That is with the cockade and pompon on the
hat This draws away the brim shading
for the left eye, and in all probability
troops will not take long in the field to dis
pose of this difficulty. With the exception
Of the headgear. this uniform is quite SIM
liar to the service uniform the British army
wears in India. They wear the white Burn
ably helmet we the campaign hat.
The advantages of this suit of clothes arc
especially obvious for officers The ordinary
fatigue uniform that has been worn in tho
field previously costs altogether about $50.
A first-class fatigue coat alone costs this
much when new, but the sum Of $50 is esti-
mated on the hypothesis that the clothing
officers wear into service will be taken
from among their old clothes. The new field
uniform for officers will not be more than
$40. The larger part of this is the price of
the boots. For infantry officers the whole
uniform costs only about IS. The old uni
form of blue was hot and uncomfortable.
If it got wet it took hours to dry, and
would hang heavy and soggy on tie body.
In appearance 1t soon became dirty and
shoddy, for it is next to impossible to keep
q dark-colored cloth clean when it has to
be worn constantly in rain and dust.

CAPE HORN INHABITANTS
Patagonians Who Are Fleet Of Foot
and Fine Marksmen

1t may be as WE'LL to refer to some other
tribes about Cape Horn which attracted the
attention of Professor Hatcher. Fof Exam
pie may be mentioned the Yahgans, who
live nearer to the southpole than any other
known people. They occupy certain small
islands lying south of Terra del Fuego and
are found also on the south beach of that
great island itself. The territory they oc-
cupy is maze of mountain peaks and the
conditions under which they exist are al
most beyond realization by civilized per-
son.
l. The typical weapon of the Yahgans is the
rawhde sling, with which they are able to
hit water fowl at 200 yards To hit any
bird at that distance would be called right
| good shooting. They can knock down and
stun a guanaco with heavy round pebble
up to 100 yards. The reason for the sling as
a tool Of destruction is found in the fact
that the Yahgans live on the beach, where
plenty of round pebbles are always at hand.
These islanders fry out oil from whale blub-
ber and store 1t up for future use in the
bladder-like leaves of kind Of seaweed
found everywhere in that region.
Quite distinct and peculiar Is the Ona
tribe, which inhabits the paririe region Is
Terra del Fuego. This great island has the
shape of triangle and is almest as large
as the state of New York Once upon
time 1t must have had tropical climate,
liidoiHuCH dS tHC UOHeS VI IuOukeyS anu
parrots are found fossil there In great num-
bers.
The Onas have no horses. They eat those
they capture from the sheep men, consider
ing horsemeat the greatest of delicaces.
They depend for food chiefly upon the guam
AGO, which abounds in Terra del Fuego, and
a kind of prairie squirrel. In the chase they
rely mainly upon bows and arrows and the
bolas, the latter consisting of two or three
stone balls on the end of hide thongs. On
being thrown the balls diverge in obedience
to centrifugal force, and fly around and
around in the air until the object is stuck
These savages can throw the bolas so dex-
terously as to fasten man to his horse.
The Onas. however, often kill the guanaco
by surrounding bunch and running them
down, so wonderfully fleet of foot are they.
