sly condemned - "swinging

so vigorously condemned Swinging
around the circle"
His friends are cooperating in the at
tempt to create a boom, in the hope that
it may swell to a tidal wave and make
| his defeat in the national democratic con-
| vention an i~mpossibility. Unwilling that
| he should wait. like Cincinnatus at the
plow, until there is a call from his
| countrynen, they are freighting him
| around from point to point to eat dollar
dinners and prove that Abraham Lincoln
was q democrat. How long car this sort
of thing be kept up? Is there n evil
dence that a tidal wave is beginning to
swell? Is not Bryan making the mistake
of his life?
1t was an error on the part OF the
brainy boy orator of the Platte to re-
sign from the army for the avowed pur-
pose of preventing expansion from eX-
panding. In so doing he did for the
mythical idea of Imperialism tina which
he did not feel called upon to do for the
practical question of bimetallism. If
Bryan represents anything in public life
he represents the crusade in favor of the
free coinage of silver and gold at a
ratio of 16 to 1, by the independent action
of the American republic. When he at
another, or associate it with issues
foreign to the purposes of the great cause
that brought him originally to the front,
he loses his identity as the most con-
spicuous apostle of the free coinage
movement. He surrenders prestige in one
direction in the hope of acquiring it in an
other.
But if this were not true-if he were
willing to drop the silly cry of imperial
ISM and devote his energies to the pro-
motion of bimetallism-is it not a mis-
take to project his personality into the
arena of national politics with the undls-
puted purpose of seeking a denomination
for the presidency? Did mortal m ever
attain the presidency by such a course of
procedure? Have not greater men than
Bryan tried it in vain? Has not Bryan
been drawn into this movement by men
who were his enemies in 1896, out who are
! now professedly his friends on the anti
! expansion issue, for the sole purpose of
| laying the foundations for his defeat in
1900? Did not such men as Andrew Car
! negie induce him to resign his military
| commission and undertake a crusade
against ''imperialism?" Does Carnegie
want Bryan and free silver in 1900? Most
assuredly not.
h young Achilles of the silver cause
has exposed his heel. Unless the boom
that has been undertaken in his interest
can be Observation-Disclosures the people can
be wrought up to a pitch of excitement
in times of profound political peace-un-
less the chilly blast of penury sweeps
over the land as it did in the dismal days
of Cleveland, and turns back the tide OF
prosperity that girdles the continent with
a halo Of hope-Bryan is sowing the seeds
of political disaster and will reap the
harvest of defeat.

Produce.

Chicago May 2.-Scattered showers
throughout the winter wheat country,
where fears of drought had been enter
tanned, caused bearish sentiment in
wheat at the start. Liquidation was
heavy and with the exception of a feeble
rally on reports of heavy export sales, the
market declined throughout the session.
Further deliveries on May contracts also
had a weakening influence. July opened
Ac lower at 73Ac, declined to 727sc, recov-
cred to 73Ac. declined slowly to 721ac, ad-
vanced to 73c and closed at 72s4c. World s
visible decrease, 1881, 900 bushels, against
5000 900 bushels decrease for the same
week year ago.
Promised reports of increased acreage
weakened corn. The visible supply de-
creased 1861, coo bushels. July opened
shade lower at 34am347sc and closed with
buyers at 3412dSi5sc.
Oats We're firm for May on covering
against cash sales, but easy for the dis
tinct futures, owing to good crop pros
poets. Visible supply decreased $4,000
bushels. July started a shade lower at
241sc, closing a 237sm24c The premium of
May over July at the close was 2&c.
Liberal receipts of hogs and scattered
selling by packers weakened provisions
early. July pork opened a shade lower at
$9.02h and advanced to 500. Lard and
ribs were dull with fluctuations narrow.

NEW YORK STOCK REPORT
Digest of Exchange News-Mining Stocks.
Metal Quotations-Wool Prices and
Movements-Grain and Pro-
duce-Review OF Trade.

New York. May 2.-Stock prices ranged
over wide radius to-day and ended with
good gains for the day. A considerable
advance, ranging from l to 4 points in
the specialties, occurred in the first half
hour, and ended with purchases of round
amounts of the international stocks for
London account. Stock values then suf-
fered on continuance of yesterdays
heavy liquidation. BY noon liquidation
had practically ceased and there were raj
lies which, among the specialties, ranged
from S1a to 81 points.
The standard railways moved far less
widely. except for Burlington and Della
ware e Hudson, which made net gains of
IL and 3A points respectively.
Among the specialties the net gains ex-
tended to 1412 points in Air Brake, 634 in
Metropolitan. 3ss in Manhattan, Sls in
Brooklyn Transit and an average of 2
points in Federal Steel. Sugar. National
Steel and Tennessee Coal and Iron.
Call money rates ruled at about per
cent. most of the day, and their steadiness
was a source of confidence, as was the
easier tone in sterling exchange, which
was attributed to the London purchases
of stocks.
for the rally was the fact that the Ford
franchise tax bill would not figure in the
tax levy of the year and the hope of those
interested in the securities affected was
that the period of year might bring
about a modification of its provisions.
The sharp speculative contest between
the bulls and bears in Brooklyn Transit,
which ultimately resulted in favor of the
former, was. because of it's great activity,
a sentimental influence in favor of taking
the long side in other properties. The dis
semination of story that the Sugar in
sders were indisposed to come to terms
with present rivals because of the fear
that other syndicates stood ready to start
up new opposition, was supposed to
have something to do with the dip in SUI
gar, but the readiness of a large house to
absorb offerings brought about a rally in
which earlier losses were more than re-
covered. The rapid fluctuations with al
ternate pronounced weakness and
strength was caused by professionals.
Late in the afternoon, when the market
was under way, an activity of commission
houses was again noted. The market left
off strong at general prices.
