Chicago. April 1S.-Wheat to-day
fert the heavy liquidation OF last
week The elimination of large part
Of the short interest and generally ia
vorable crop reports had sufficiently
depressing influence in the market to
cause a closing decline in July of 1ac.
The coarser grain markets were
strong, especially corn, which adj
vanced 1sc. Oats closed sc higher.
Provisions were stagnant and closed
at practically unchanged prices.
A rather easy feeling was noticeable
at the opening in wheat. With the
evception of California, almost the
entire country reported crop prospects
&c bright with the weather perfect for
farming operations. Prospective buy
ers were also held in check for the
time being by the fact that Liverpool,
although opening at good advance,
lost about all before trading COM
menced here.
But the insipient weakness gave way
to strength almost before the market
got under way. The big bull factor
last week. the foreign demand for
American grain was again very much
in evidence, it being stated that every
thing offered of wheat, corn, rye and

New York, April 1S.-Many leaders
of the House asserted that the Senate
resolution would not pass. and indica-
lions were that the President will be
upheld and that the Turpie amendment
VIII be defeated. Even in London the
feeling was conservatively bullish on
the belief that there will be no recogni-
ton to Cuban independence. However,
despite these influences many leaders
in the board were not disposed to take
hold of the market and they endorsed
bearishness, basing their opinion on
dearer money. The Gould family can
not see their way clear to make any
special movements in their stocks, and
one of their leading representatives pre-
diets that Manhattan will not break be-
low 80, Western Union so and Missouri
Pacific 23. On the other hand Russell
Sage is bearish and says that any I'M
favorable developments in the political
situation will result in heavy liquida
ton by the rich men. Traders were to
go long of Tobacco. There were some
fairly representative buying orders eX-
ecuted around par, and it is asserted
that the Drummond will be consum-
mated before the present month eX
pires Tobacco is subject TO heavy
manipulation, however, and when pur-
chased for speculative purposes should
be sold on quick spurts. The majority
of the stock sold on the decline Satur-
day was taken by people who bought
heavily during last month. Officials of
the Louisville & Nashville say that the
dividend question is in doubt and will
be in doubt until matters become more
unambiguous. One of the unclean fac
tors is new Developments in politics.
while another is whether or not there
will be an epidemic of yellow fever in
the South this year Many people pre-
diet an outbreak of the disastrous dis
ease and apprehension is gradually
growing.

What come near being a serious
row occurred on Main street, near
the dispensarv, last Saturday
night between Ambrose Tisdale
and David Williams. The two
negroes were indulging in some
personalities interspersedwithcurS-
ing, when Ambrose struck Will
liams over the head with his stick.
In retail alton Williams drew his
pistol and addressed a thirty-two
calibre remark in the dire ction Of
Tisdale, who was standing not five
feet away. The ball sped harm
lessly by and Williams took 10 his
heels. Ambrose is hunting for his
assailant and avowS his intention
of carrying the case into Court.
