This Gymnastic Feat Was Performed
by May Wheat In Chicago.
Chicago, April ga double back
somersault was performed by May
wheat. Instead Of settling into rem
iniscence the option promptly started
Monday morning with a repetition of
last weeks sensational acrobatics.
Some of the first trades showed fall
of cents bushel, the price opening
SO to So cents. as against 81 at the
close Saturday. After the initial
plunge the price for May showed q
tendency to rally, reacting temporarily
to 81 ga. If the selling was from rep
resentatives of John w. Gates. 1t was
we'll disguised, the market presenting
the appearance of general bearish at
tack rather than an attempt at-further
liquidation Of holdings acquired dur
ing the attempted corner. p A. VAL
entine Of Armour & Co. is generally
accredited with buying considerable
May wheat while quotations were be-
tween SO to SO cents. To this was at
tributed the recovery to 81 ga. Fresh
selling, however, from outside sources
soon pounded the market down worse
than before. It was not long before the
current figure for May was 931-2
cents, a net loss of 6 1-2 cents per
busheL Compared with Saturdays
close, SO 1-2, the market showed a fall
Of nearly 80 cents from the point at
which the Gates party is supposed to
be in full control of the deal some
weeks ago.

sand Dollars Given at New York.
New York, April 25.-Easter con-
tributions to the churches of this city
are estimated to considerably exceed
$25O,OOO. Indeed, the sum total of the
seven or eight churches classed as the
weather. congregations probably
reached that figure. In some instances
the gifts were as large as $4,000 from
individuals. Grace Episcopal church
received one contribution of that sum,
which will be used for the training
schools for deaconesses. Altogether the
congregational offering was $55,450. the
largest in many years.
ST. Andrews, in Harlem, also Episco-
pal, received $4,000, the largest
amount ever offered by that congrega-
lions. Like Grace church, the plates
received one check for $4,000.
Old Trinity is thought to have rails
ed at least 100000 for the numerous
institutions under its patronage.
In Brooklyn heavy Offerings were
also reported and several churches will
be able to wipe out their entire in
debtedness.

INCREASED ASSESSMENTS,

The demand for more revenue with
which to maintain the expenditures of
the State administration is surprising
to many citizens, who had been led to
believe that there was surplus in the
treasury At least this impression was
created, at about the time Governor
Heard retired from Office, which was
assumed by Governor Blanchard. In his
farewell to the people Governor Heard
offered valuable and hopeful sugges-
items, on the retirement of bonds for
instance, with the surplus said to have
been in the treasury; and there was left
on the public mind the impression that
the six mills would be more than sufi-
cient to maintain the government On the
basis of assessment, but, under the pres
ent administration, the, assessment, on
the pleasof equalization. IS being raised
throughout the State which is intended
to create revenue sufficient to meet a
deficit. Ii the finances during the ad-
ministrations, when Foster and Heard
were governors, were more than ample
tosneet ali the expenditures Of the gov
eminent, it is therefore pertinent to in
quire how is it that there is a deficit, to
cover which, more funds must be collect
ed from the people, already tax-ridden,
and the increase essential to meet the
requirements Of the present administra-
ton must be created through the med
ium OF increased assessments through
out the State? II is about time the peo-
pie were awakening to a realization of
the situation.

points In Northern Securities on the

st. Petersburg, April 25.-Vice Ad-

officers here called the present stage
of affairs game of naval hide AMI

was justified in sending elusive dis
sive dispatches as there was reason to
believe that the motive of Japan in
pressing the question was the desire
to learn the exact position Of Rojest-
vensky's squadron.
