the vessel touched on a rock, but hung
there only for a moment. The impact
was so slight that the captain, who
was on the poop at the time, directing
the man at the wheel. had some doubt
as to whether II was really a rock that
had been hit. The pumps were immedi-
ately ordered to be sounded. but an ex-
making any water. and as the sea was
increasing every minute the captain
deemed IL prudent to put the ships
head out to sea and run before the
wind. About an hour afterward the
officers were surprised to learn that the
gauge showed IL inches In the hold.
The pumps were at once got to work,
but the water gained rapidly, and the
skipper clapped on sail. with the inten-
ton of running for Cloudy bay in order
to beach h vessel. soon afterward
the steamer Tarawera was sighted. and
arrangements were made for towing
the disabled vessel to Wellington. This
was about Z o'clock in the morning,
and after long n hazardous opera
ions the two vessels got under
weigh at 1 in the afternoon. being then
between ten and fifteen miles off We'll

stood by the Nelson from the heads. and
as II happened this was a fortunate ar
rangement. for when a couple of miles
off the wharf h Tarawera's two lines
carried away, but the Duco was equal
to the occasion and safely berthed the
ship at the outer tee of Queens wharf

Chicago, April 13.-Everything in wheat
was strong at the opening Even May.
which has been only nominal of late. ex-
hibited a great deal of activity, and that
fact was the feature of the early trad
ing. The most prominent factor in the
strength was undoubtedly the gravity of
the reports from Washington. Another
factor was the knowledge, which leaked
out before trading commenced, that Lee
ter had received acceptances from abroad
Of all the wheat he had offered the pre-
vious afternoon at prices lased only on
an advance. This quantity was put by Lei
ter at about 70O.0 900 bushels. and this show
of determination of foreigners to get all
the wheat ahead of actual hostilities
created genuine anxiety among shorts,
big and little. and started them to cover
ing as soon as trading commenced.
May started at $1.0S. and advanced at
once to 81 .0912. the highest point yet
reached in that option. Letter soon took
advantage of the bulge and disposed of
large quantities through brokers and the
price eased of to s1.Os. The big trading.
however, was done i'm July. All classes OF
buyers came into the market. but offer
ings were decidedly limited until the price
got up to S6asc. This was above call fig
ures. and free selling by hoiuers of these
privileges. with extensive realizations by
the traders, caused a little ~softening of
prices. July getting back to S6asc. But
about II: 80 the influence Of the Washing
ton news was augmented by more SEN
s~ational news regarding the California
crop. Before II o'clock tIe buying had be-
come larger ...an before, and as the ses-
sion wore on II became practically a
scramble among shorts TO cover. Ordinary
news OF the day cuts ..--.e figure, every
thing else being o~vershadowed by the war
news and Letters big cash sales.
Continental markets were firm and
higher. Northwest receipts were small, l42
cars against 253 last week. and 294 a year
ago. Chicago receipts were Il cars. The
addition to contract stocks to-day

ances were rather light. The Letter inter-
ests sold largely of May. and also of
July right up to the close. but even his
were not sufficient to satisfy the
demand, and a few minutes from the end
of the session July was bid up to SS5sc.
The market then reacted.
Corn was rather draggy at first. but at
noon the market began to respond to the
in wheat and became very strong.
Oats were active and strong. the firm
ness being due principally to the wheat
