Declined n Raise.

New York, March ga dispatch to the
Tribune from Washington says: The
forthcoming army register the first to be
printed for more than a year, which will
be issued by the war department by the
end of this week. gives official corrobora-
ton to the report that Brgadier General
Corbin refused to accept a commission as
major general of volunteers which was
rendered him by the president in recogni-
ton of his services in the war with SPAIN
From the new official register it appears
that such a commission was made out for
General Corbin on Aug. Il, 1898, and de-
cined. This entry is notably conspicu-
Gus in the register, because in the 300
pages of the volume, collecting the COM
plete military records of all of the off,
GERS in the army, there are few similar
instances of an appointment by the pres
ident having been followed by a declina-
ton. General Corbin, when asked why
he did not accept, said:
1.-THE number of major generals was
limited and we needed every one of them
in the field. I could not stand in the way
of any man who was in the fighting line.
I wanted them to have their promotions
first. My place was here. The law did
not specifically provide that the adjutant
general of the army large as it had grown
to be. should be increased in rank. 1t
did permit an increase of ma ior generals
in the line. and I thought the officers of
the line should have all the vacancies as
long as we needed them"

CHICAGO MARKETS,


Chicago, March PA sharp bulge on
the curb before business commenced, to-
gether with the unfavorabe weather,
caused an eager demand for wheat al the
start. May opened Am1c higher at 900
6J1sc, and as several traders who have
been skeptical as to serious damage to
winter wheat changed their minds and
showed sudden desire to become pos
sessed of contracts for future supplies,
the market continued to maintain an up
ward tendency. BY the time the price got
to 69Ac, however the most urgent buy
ers' wants had been satisfied and as soon
as this support was withdrawn the adj
vance came to a halt. Then longs started
to take profits, and as there was a good
deal of selling for the short account, it
did not take long for the price to recede
to 6S4c.
Liverpool closed with a gain for the
day of from Id to l1sd. This together
with fresh outside buying orders that
came in, which were more than sufficient
to absorb the offerings. started another
upturn and at the close May was bringing
6914 d692sc.
The corn market was strong and the
speculative business good. Receipts We're
very light and indications were in favor
of their running slim for some time to
come, as the country acceptance of bids
amounted to almost nothing. The pro-
traction of winter conditions was in the
hands of traders and helped to strengthen
the hands of holders. May closed 9sc
higher.
Light offerings and good speculative de-
mand based upon the belief in a late
spring, strengthened oats. May closed
i2c higher.
Trade in provisions was on a more mod
crate scale, but prices were a little high
