Americans Getting Good Profits on
Wheat. Corn and Cotton.
New York Feb. 11.-R. G. Dun & Co. s
weekly review OF trade says: In wheat
Americans are getting profits, even
though prices are lower than they were
some months ago. After some yielding
the price rose TO 1887 cents. and the MAY
option rose 4 cent during the week,
with Atlantic exports of 3.s26, ,692 bush
els, flour included against 2.174.921 last
year, and total exports, including Pa
cific. 4.647 ,405 bushels, against 2,9605l5

foreigners are constantly taking more
wheat and corn from us than in any
previous year.
The cotton market is in slightly
stronger position. because foreign buy
Ing continues beyond precedent, while
home indications now point to a smaller
crop than was expected. The stocks on
hand are heavy. both commercial and
mill. but foreign buying supports the
rise in prices thus far. Mill operations
help also, though at this season they
are naturally small. for the heavy de.

advanced in prices as much as staple
cottons since the lowest point was
reached. Goods are rapidly rising with
the expanding demand. but the material
has advanced only an eighth What
wool Is worth, In view Of the great stocks
yet unconsumed, few are able to Judge
and that fact hinders adjustment of
prices for goods. Sales have been
small.
The boot and shoe market is also in q
state of transition, and. while prices
have not changed during the week. buy
ing has been checked by advances in
leather anj poor retail trade. ship
ments from the east have been smaller
than last year, or in 1897, though larger
than in other recent years. Leather is
again stronger. and some grades OF
packer hides at Chicago have advanced.
The iron industry is so exploited by
consultations and attempts of that ma
ture that ii is wonderful prices have
not reflected distrust. Instead there
have been general advances because the
demand has been large.
The volume OF business does not

col. GARDINER Is BITTER.
Refuses to Attend Naxet Committee,
ignoring Subpoena.

NEW YORK. Nov. g7--The Mazet COM
mittee today resumed its investigation or
the city departments. The most important
incident was the refusal OF District At
torney Gardiner to testify before the COM
mittee, which thereupon entered upon the
long expected inquiry into The conduct OF
his office. Gov. Roosevelt today announced
that he would appoint A. L. Wilcox, OF
Buffalo commissioner to hear the charges
brought against Mr. Gardiner by the city
club. At the hearing today Mr. Moss read
tho affidavit ef Edward j. Reardon. who
served Col Gardiner Saturday afternoon
with subpoena 10 appear before the COM
mittee this afternoon. According 10 the
subpoena served he had met Col. Gardiner
in an elevator in the criminal court build
ing and that when he touched him with
the paper Col Gardiner said
81 don't recognize this as a legal service
as II is half holiday"
Reardon insisted that he bad served the
subpoena when Col. Gardiner said:
''You are a damned liar. and l have a
mind 10 have you arrested
Mr. Gardiner today sent long and bitter
letter 10 Mr.. MaZes. in which he says:
INSTEAD OF inquiring Of me concerning
this office you permitted your managing
counsel TO question me concerning an In
dictmenf for murder of exceptional intri-
cacy and difficulty which has taxed the
energies OF myself arid members of my pro-
fessional staff FOR nearly eleven months and
il now on trial
.'This scandalous effort TO pry into the
peoples case. presumably for the benefit Of
the defendant, induced your associate coun-
sci to follow me from your presence 10 say
apologetieally that re was opposed TO such
an examination.
1T becomes my duty to announce fact
that YOU well know-that you are absolutely
without lawful authority TO issue sub
poena or 10 swear a witness"
The investigation this morning was into
the methods OF the health inspectors, and
the disclosures were not complete.
