GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.
business Was Stagnant In Wheat
Market In Chicago.

Chicago, Dec. Wheat at the OPEN
ing today derived a bit of steadiness
from the light deliveries of the contract
article-about 25o,000 bushels-the
strength of Minneapolis and reported
damages from flies in Michigan. May
opened a shade over Wednesday at
e93s Gl693s and early touched 90. BUSH
ness was stagnant and the market
turned speedily weak upon the receipt
of a discouraging Modern Miller report
and the lacb Of outside demand. The
flour trade was reported anything but
satisfactory, the weather good for fall
planted crops and the frost said to have
killed the Hessian fly. The slump thus
started was boosted along as many stop
orders were touched, thus putting con-
siderable long wheat on the market.
May sagged down to eS3sQ69. closing
&c lower at So. The failure of McCord
& Co. in New York had little effect
here.
Corn, early steady on alleged bullish
weather and light receipts, turned
weak. depressed by the heaviness of
wheat. and to a degree by the McCord
failure. May closed sc down.
Oats yielded with corn. Trade was
light and the May range was only Ac.
May closed nc down. =
Provisions We're steady, supported by
a light supply of hogs. higher hog
prices and a good demand. May pork
closed 25s higher, May lard shade UP

New York. Dec. 1.-The stock mar
kst today was a narrow and coiorIess
a'fair. Professional operations were re-
sponsibie for whatever movement took
place, and changes on this account
were not well maintained owing to the
desire OF the professionals 70 close up
their contracts at once. The organized
buying of the trunk lines and some other
stocks, which was in evidence in The
earlier part of the week, seemed To- be
entirely discontinued and those stocks
reacted on profit taking. New York
Central sold with the rights to sub
scribe to the new stocks issue deducted
from the price. There were sales OF
these rights at from as to 51a. Union
Pacific and Northern Pacific showed
some strength and there was an at
tempt TO advance some of the iron and
steel stocks, which proved only partly
successful. Some of the prominent spe-
cialties suffered from bear pressure.
notably Sugar, Brooklyn Transit and
the other New York traction stocks and
the Tobacco stocks.
Conditions in the money market were
responsible for the dizziness in the stock
market The advance IN the Bank of
England rate from TO per cent was
unexpected. but was a confirmation of
q disagreeable anticipation from the
cepteG as notification of the Bank of
England's policy TO hold control of the
money market with the purpose of
keeping up rates so as to attract funds
10 London for the future needs Of that
market, including the coming annual
settlements and the requirements of
the government for the South African
war expenditures.
Sterling exchange both here and in
Paris has declined in response to, the
conditions in London, where, however,
the money rate reacted slightly from
yesterdays level. The rate for money
cent. Preliminary estimates make it
evident that tomorrow's bank state
ment will show still further improve
ment in the condition of the banks, but
the gain in cash resources will come
wholly from sub-treasury operations,
on which account the banks have
gained s2,9S0.OOO, including bond re-
demptions and receipts on account of
gold deposits at interior points.
In the interior money movement by
express. on the other hand. the banks
have sustained a net loss of over $780,.
600. Receipts from the interior have
fallen off over 100000. while the ship
ments to the interior have increased
nearly $3.50 000 The net gain on last
weeks movement had aroused hopes
that the long expected refiuX of funds
to this center had at last set in, but this
weeks figures show that the interior
demand is still unsatisfied.
The bond market was quiet and
prices were shaded in the majority of
issues. Total sales, par value, 81, 3z0-

SUES FOR BIG DAMAGES.
A Kansas Woman Wants S15,O0O from the Western Union Telegraph Company for
 the Death of Two Children.

Wichita, Kan, July 29.-In the dis trict court here Mrs. E. l.. Leavitt, a milliner of Esbon, brought suit against the Western Union Telegraph company for S15, ,O00, alleging that the company, through gross carelessness in the non delivery of message, is directly re- sponsible for the death of two of her children and for injuries to her self from which she has been an in- valid for nearly two years. She says that while on her way from Esbon to Ponca City, Ok, in September, 1897, her son, Earl Leavitt, aged nine, be- came i'll at Arkansas City. She tele- graphed to Ponca City liveryman to meet her at Che station with a carriage. The Western Union clerk at Ponca City put the message in an envelope ad- dressed to Mrs. Leavitt instead of to the cabman and it was never delivered. In the time Mrs. Leavitt was compelled to wait in the Ponca City depot the boy was seized with a violent fit of cough ing and died in his mother's arms. Bertha Leavitt, a daughter 13 years old, was sent out for carriage and re- ceived nervous shock from overheat
 it is alleged, and she died April 24, 1898.
