Indianap.li. Grain Market.

There is too much rain to make the grain
market active. as farmers hesitate to move
their grain during the unfavorable wealth
er and buyers hesitate TO make large pur-
chases. Receipts are light. Occasionally
there Is a good day. but on an average
forty cars covers the daily receipts when
they should be ninety to one hundred. The

of Markets Elsewhere

UNION SToCKYARDS. INDIANAPOLIS.
April 25.-Cattle-Receipts. 200: shipments small
The receipts OF cattle this week have been OF
fair volume, but a little less than 900 smaller
than last week and 200 larger than the same
week year ago and 700 larger than the corre-
spending week two years ago. Thus far this
year the receipts are over 5000 smaller than the
same time last year. and the receipts for the
month thus less than 500 smaller than
the same period a year ago. There have been
very few changes of any particular importance
in the trade here this week. AT the beginning
of the week the market for certain kinds was
rather inclined weakness. and statesmen had
more or less difficulty in concentrating sales.
but there general reduction Of any conse-
quence suffered in prices. The market was
little feeble until after the middle of the week.
but later. with increased requirements from
outside sources and steady demand from local
packing houses, there was more animation in
the trade and sales usually at satisfactory
prices. Some little improvement finally Sc
cured in prices of the best steers compared with
the close of last week. but they did not get as
high the early part of last week. The strong
est line in the market this week was the good
cows. and they at all times salable at
firm prices, but higher. On account of a
larger proportion of unfinished stock toward the
close of the week. that class did not sell quite
as high, but there was no great change suffered.
1t is the opinion of good many dealers that the
market here is in a healthy condition. ana they
are rather expecting at least present prices for
the better class of stock in the future.
There is danger however of the supplies becom-
ing excessive, and in that event 1t is hardly
probable that steady prices be maintained
Country shippers can do much toward keeping
the market in "a satisfactory condition by pre-
venting a glut and by making their consign-
ments good possible in regard to fat and
quality The highest prices paid this week were
s535 for fat steers. 1870 for feeders S. for
heifers. $3.50 for si25 for bulls and 81 for
calves. The receipts to-day. usual on satur-
day. small, and the consignments were
principally cattle the stocker and feeder
der There being practically no outside demand
for that class to-day the market was quiet
and most dealers reported no quotable change in
prices compared with yesterday. Quotations:

THE HURRY HABIT.

Golfers Weekly,

If there is one lesson more than another
that Americans, and especially American
women. need 10 learn and at once, IL is 10
make haste slowly. Hurry is the most de-
structive of our national habits. 1t is the
chief cause or our national disease, nerv-
Gus prostration, and one of the principal
allies of the undertaken. Hurry and worry
always go together. In differentiating be-
tween haste and hurry a noted alienist
cites the numerous uuick-lunch restaurants
which have sprung up during the last dec
ade in all American cities. The sign itself,
quick lunch or "a meal in a minute" is
enough TO set one To hurrying. The sight
of the spry walters rushing about apparent
ly half frantic from having twice as much
TO do as they should. the rafting of the
dishes, the spectacle OF his neighbor bolt
ing mis- food without sufficient chewing, the
very element of hurry that seems to be in
effect upon the impressionable patron of
the modern. lightning-express restaurant
The consequence is imperfect mastica ton,
dyspepsia and nervous prostration.
Hurry destroys thoroughness. The per-
son who hurries cannot have his heart in
his work. Thinking constantly OF what is
TO be done next. the task of the present is
sighted by borrowing unnecessarily from
the future. Paradoxical as IL may sound,
hurry is the subterfuge of the lazy. A
man woman who is lazy at heart often
hurries to make a pretense of working and
detract attention from real idleness Little
time is required TO compute the results
achieved by the person who bustles breath
lessly about with nerves unstrung and put
ting every one within hearing In the same
condition
Hurry and haste are not synonymous. A
putting. blowing. whistling tug hurries: an
ocean steamship makes haste A little less
the piston rod would add immensely 10 the
national health without spelling the speed
OF our progress.

CORN STRONG AND HIGHER
GOOD DEMAND, LIGHT OFFERINGS
AND CABLES CAUSE GAIN.
Wheat Is Dull and Easy, and Oats
Break Badly-PrOvisions Hold
Steady, with Small Changes.

CHICAGO. April 25.--Tradng in grain
and provisions was rather dull to-day and
an easier tone prevailed in wheat. May
closing sc lower and July sc lower. May
corn closed Sale higher, with July I'M
changed. and May oats were shade lower.
with July down bc. Provisions closed
steady, unchanged to 2l2c lower.
There was little of conspicuous character
in the trading in wheat and the market, on
the whole. was dull. Opening prices were
easier. due to the lower cables. and May
was unchanged to 1sc lower at Use to
77%c. but July was a shade to sc higher
at 721zQ725sc. The strength in corn had
a somewhat bullish effect early, and May
sold up TO 777sc and July to 72Ac, but the
improved feeling was only momentary, for
with selling by pit traders and brokers.
the market gradually declined. Late in
the day a severe break occurred on scat
tered liquidation in the nearby months and
May slumped to 76Ac, while July sold off
to 72lsq72Ac. Active support was lacking.
and weakness continued till the close.
which showed loss on May of Sc. at 771sc.
July closed sQAc lower at 7214q72ssc.
Clearances of wheat and flour were equal
to 394. 900 blu. Primary receipts were $4,000
blu, against 2l5,000 a year ago. Minneapolis
and Duluth reported receipts of ia cars.
which. with local receipts of 20 cars, none
of contract grade, made q total OF 1874 cars,
against $50 last week and 1S6 year ago
good commission house demand for
both May and July corn was responsible
for the strength manifested in that pit,
and with little on the market at any time
the firmness was well maintained. Higher
cables had a strengthening influence at
the opening, and with a good cash demand
and small receipts local shorts were
alarmed at the prospects and covered free
ly. The weakness in wheat had little effect
on corn, and closing prices were firm, May
being 2sG12c higher at 45Ac. and July I'M
changed at 4512c. Receipts were 49 cars,
none of contract grade.
Oats started strong, helped by the bullish
tendency in corn and on small receipts,
but at the higher figures influential selling
by commission houses caused a reaction
and the market broke badly, July declin-
ing 12c. Prices were steady the latter part
of the session and July closed isc lower at
315sc, with May a shade lower at 34Ac. Re-
ceipts were LOG cars.
There was considerable realizing in pro-
visions by local longs, but offerings were
we'll taken by brokers and prices held
steady. July pork closed unchanged at
$17.471A lard 21Ac lower at $9.6212q9.65, and
ribs off shade at $9.65@96T1A.
Estimated receipts for Monday: Wheat,
40 cars; corn IS; oats. 1885, hogs, $4,000 head.
