Chicago-While grain and provision
markets were somewhat unsettled this
week the tendency of prices was in the
main upward, and some gain was record
ed in each of the leading speculative com
modties. Strength in wheat proceeded
more from something that may happen
between now and May l, and that more
as it affects the supply of the commodity
for delivery on speculative May contracts
in Chicago than from any apprehended
scarcity of wheat for consumption at
home or abroad. There are in the public
elevators of Chicago less than 100000
bushels of wheat that could be delivered
in satisfaction of purchases for May de-
livery, and probably five times that
amount is sold. The buyers may not
want that 100000 bushels of wheat,
or any more of it at least than there is
in store; but they might, and it is within
their power to compel the sellers per-
Torrance of their contracts. Fear of the
latter contingency is a leading factor in
the present dealings for the May option.
Foreign demand continues to absorb
about 100000 bushels of wheat and
-four weekly, but that is of a grade of
wheat worth anywhere from cents to
II cents bushel less than the quality
being bought and sold by spectators; Of
the other kind used by millers and ship
pers there is a present abundance. The
advance in price of May corn is the re-
suit of similar apprehended future scar
city of the contract grade, and that is
accumulated by the small amount in
store at the present time.

CHARLES BROADWAY RoUss
The Blind Merchant and Million
aire of New York City.

People who happen to be on Fifth
avenue, New York, between and 8
O'Clock every evening can see an old
fashioned carriage with two seats driv-
ing rapidly uptown. On the back seat
sits an old gentleman comfortably placed
well wrapped up with furs and slouch
hat drawn down over his eyes. Beside
hlm Is q younger man with an open
newspaper spread upon his knees and
an electric lamp in his hand. His mouth
Is close to his companions ear so that
the latter can hear distinctly as he reads
the evening papers above the rattle of
the wheels OF thousands Of carriages and
delivery wagons over the rough stone
pavement. Between 8 and 7 o'clock
every morning the same sight may be
witnessed by people who get out so
early.
The old gentleman in the carriage is

In 1860 MIR. Rouss came to New York

merchants in that city, and his wealth
is estimated all the way from So 600 600

every one can read it, is large framed
