WASH BILLS BIGGER.
Chinese Say Higher Duty on Celes-
tial Starch Will Send Them up.

We who have clothes to be washed
waste no time. According to Celestial
Information the price of laundering is
to rise within the next fortnight. The
wash bills are to be stiffened by the
absence of Chinese starch. Yesterday
a wise queue-bearer explained the i'm
pending crisis as follows:
You sabbee washee money more big
gee bimeby littee bit. You no sabbee.
Bimeby nexy week / come alice samee
gettee washee. 1 tellee you two bittee
more. You no sabbee; you no gimmee
two bittee more / no takee washee
alice samee.
Honolulu all samee Melica: Leeplub-
lie all samee mucky; Leeplublic say
Chinaman you alice samee bling in
starchee no costee muchee Tellitolly
say you payee like helle you no gettee
starch come China. Bimeby Chinaman
say you no payee like helle you no get
tee laundlee alice samee."
Which in plain English means that
the American duty on Chinese starch
now imposed will according to the
Chinese effectually bar it's use and they
Will be compelled to use American
starch which will be dearer by a good
deal than the Chinese product now
commonly used. And so wash bills will
be larger.

CHICAGO, May 19.-Wheat early was

but closed steady, July 1sc under yesterday.
July corn closed AQSsc lower, and July
oats a shade depressed. AT the close hog
products were a trifie easier, but steadier.
In all the pits trade was quiet.
Liverpool was still whooping II up for
Baden-PoweI to-day and forgot to deal in
grain, and in the absence of this usual hint
to go one way or the other, the market
here opened the session unchanged, July

gloomy glances at the prospect of seed dy-
ing in the ground from drought. The South
west complained of recent liberal rains. In
addition Illinois reported damage from the
Hessian fly. These tidings were enough to
worry shorts and under pressure of COW
ering the price of July was forced up to
G71kc. The corn weakness later made itself
felt, and many of the early purchases were
thrown on the market again, July selling
off to &c. The close was steady at 6lg6lbc

session was quiet. The cash demand was

compared with 365, 900 last year. Minneapolis
and Duluth reported 275 cars. against 424
last week and 33S a year ago. Local re-
ceipts were &c cars, two or contract grade
Corn was quiet for an hour, but weak
after that. The weakness was due to pres
sure of long corn. There were complaints
of too much rain in the West and seeding
was reported delayed in Iowa The open
ing was unchanged and the market devel-
oped strength on the rains during the first
hour, but lost ii for the cause aforemen-
toned. July sold between 3SlzqS77sc, clos
ing heavy, Ad3sc down, at 3S14c. Receipts
were lbs cars.
Oats were steady, but dull and uninter-
esting. The dry weather in the Northwest
was a sustaining influence. July sold be-
tween 22jzc and 224c, and closed shade
lower at 224Q22ssc Receipts here were l69
cars.
Provisions were very quiet, but fairly
steady. The opening was a trihe lower be-
cause of liberal hog receipts. There was
q moderate-very moderate-demand for
lard and ribs. July pork sold between

S11 771s; July lard between 81 and sos,

man Imperial Bank discloses that the
movement OF Russian gold TO London has
not interfered with that institution re-
plenishing its cash reserves. The Bank
Of France shows the benefit of the New
York shipments Of gold. and, like the Ger
man bank, has contracted its loans and
reduced its note circulation. The pay
Ing of OF loans to the three great
foreign banks did not check the
growing ease of private discount
rates. and II is not believed that
further demands will be made on New
York for gold. Much interest attaches to
the future action of the foreign govern
ment banks as TO the official discount rates.
The fact that they maintain their rates in
spite of the ease of private discount rates
indicates desire TO continue to strength
en- the resources. Such course warrants
the expectation of future more pressing
needs TO be met by the managers of these
institutions. when they may again assume
control of their respective money markets.
