recting Jules S. Bache and William j.
Wollman, two of the defendants in
suit brought by Hart to show cause
why they should not submit to an ex-
animation before trial IN order to en-
able the plaintiff to frame his COM
plant, should not be vacated.
Mr. Hart wants the defendants to
disclose the present depository of $500
shares of Third Avenue Railroad stock
and 700 shares of Pacific Mail stock.
He claims that the defendants were in
terested in the reorganization of the
Third avenue Company and obtained
possession of large block of stock be-,
longing to Mr.. Hart. All the stock,
with the exception of the shares in
question, has been accounted for.

CHICAGO, June S.-Wheat was quiet
to-day. July closed ssc higher; July
corn s@Ac lower; July oats I'M
changed and provisions, 21sc improved.
Bears in wheat had the better of the
news on hand before the beginning of
the session and July wheat opened &c
to Nc lower at 73c. on heavy rain
throughout Kansas aid Oklahoma
where moisture was badly needed. The
impression created was that the Kan
sas crop will be about equal to last
years. The rains with lower cables,
caused an early decline of 1sc but the
pressure to sell was so general as the
better crop prospects appeared to war
rant, and this feeling of reluctance
was supported by later reports that
possibly the Kansas rains will interfere
with harvesting. This caused rally
to 1850 July closed firm at &c high
er at 73h@735s. Six loads were re-
ported for export and seaboard clear
ances of wheat and -four were equal to
S65,O00 bushels. Primary receipts
were 472,00O bushels against 60S,OOO
bushels a year ago. Minneapolis and
Duluth reported $40 cars, against 800
last week and 40 year ago. Local
receipts were SO cars, none of contract
grade.
Corn was steady over a narrow
range of prices with business chiefly of
q local speculative character. The
weather was so unseasonably cool as to
brighten shorts early. The advance
was lost on liquidation. July sold be-
tween 431sc and AIS @44Ac and closed

nothing to indicate any change in the
professional character of the stock mar
manipulation Tor any important varia-
ket to-day and it's dependence upon
ton in prices. until the appearance OF
the bank statement upon the tape.
There was lively splitting out of stocks
after that and sharp breaks in prices,
which wiped out the greater part of the
gains in the strong stocks and carried
the general level of prices substantial
" below last nights closing level. The
heavy inroads upon reserves revealed
by the statement was a surprise, al
thought adequate explanation may be
found for it. 1t will be remembered
that last week statement showed an
unexpected increase in cash. 1t appears
that q part of last weeks gold ship
ments did not figure in last weeks
statement and was carried over into this
week. The enormous loan expansion
was affected by some large corporate
transactions. 1t was announced this
morning that the $50 100000 capital OF
the new consolidated Tobacco Company
was paid yesterday in cash. On Mon
day the fourth and last installmen, of
S10,000,000 on subscriptions to forty
millions Of Union Pacific convertible
bonds is payable and preparations have
doubtless been made for it. The Steel
Company consultations in Philaici-
phia may also have affected the loan
item here. The loan expansion of S21,-
