Chicago, Aug 25.-Absence of out
side trade caused a rather dull wheat
market today. There was no important
feature to trade. As a general thing
news was bullish but early weakness
in corn encouraged bears and after a
small advance considerable wheat came
out. and in the absence of buying or
ders the market declined. There was
a tirmer feeling later in the session,
which was due largely to the better
tone of the corn market, but towards
the close the tired longs sold out and
the market declined again and closed
barely steady, at near the lowest
prices.
Corn-The feature in corn was the
heavy buying of May, by Armour. The
market was weak early on the improv-
ed crop advices and continuation of
good growing weather. Considerable
long corn came out. but later the mar
l1et firmed w on Armour buying, but
the firrnness was only temporary. Of
rertngs were free. near the close, and
last prices were nearest the lowest of
the day. Early selling was general with
The pit crowd about the only buyers.
Some Of them sold out on small adj
vance late in the session. The govern
ment weekly bulletin was a little bear
ish, cables unchanged.
Oats-There was an easier feeling In

down the line through the ffre-swept sea-
liant passage of the channel. He might have
darted through an interval between one of
the pairs and rowed in comparative safety
down the port side of the feet. To have
done that would have been to lose time,
however, and might have prevented him
from getting aboard of the ships At any
rate, with cool and thrilling courage he
chose deliberately to pass between the ships
and the forts still heavily engaging. By
hard rowing he succeeded In gaining the
deck OF the Oneida. the last ship Of the
line, slight sloop of war.

between the Oneida and the Tennessee the

been torn to pieces and sunk then and

The courage of The crew Of the Oneida was
beyond all praise. With the captain well

boilers. exploding beneath them, the men
below shrieking and screaming In agony
they stuck to their guns as coolly as tf

By and by they. too reached the feet and

took his boat and started at once for the
admiral on the Hartford. swinging quiet at
anchor above the middle ground. The guns
had been secured. the decks washed clear of
their blood stains and the wounded carried
below to the busy surgeons doing what they
could for them. On the port side of the

As Peyton went aft to report to him he

at the bodies of the poor fellows who had
been killed in the action. Tears gffstened In

The old general covered his eyes with his

Now 1t was the rams turn. Willis Pey-

went coolly, il rapidly, about his work.
He had no time to hnger and he could not
afford to think Of the horrible peril men
acing him and his men. His mental saliva

his duty then. An admitted cognizance OF
consequences might have killed him.
| Just as he fired Willis Peyton saw the
Hartford break from the mass and head
toward him. Admiral Buchanan. in the
bumped pilot house forward, saw her at
the same time. The helm Of the Tennessee
was shifted and the ram was headed
straight for the flagship. Expecting every
moment to see the latter blown up by the
torpedoes, the ironclad slowly moved for
ward just above them. waiting for her.
When the Hartford passed the line of tor
pedoes unframed the ironclad made for
her, but the attempt of the Tennessee to
