GREAT VOLCANO

Naples, April 12.-The loss to prop
erty by the volcanic outbreak is esti-
mtaed at $40, 900, 900, and it is an
nounced that 1000 persons have been
rendered homeless.
The morning opened with the air OPP
pressive and yellow with ashes from
Vesuvius, causing feeling of appre-
hension regarding what the future may
hold in store for this city and its vicin-
ity.
The volcano was completely hidden
in dense mass of cinder laden smoke,
the only other signs of activity being
fequent and very severe detonations
ard deep rumblings.
From all quarters come reports of the
accumulation of ashes. the flight of ter
ror stricken inhabitants of towns and
villages, the collapse of buildings, the
insufficiencies of the relief measures,
hunger and encouragement.

is raging at the immense stockyards of
A. q. Ruby 81 Co., not three blocks
from the heart of the business section
of the city. Sheets on sheets of flame
envelope an area of over two acres of
infiammable buildings filed with hun.
dreds of fine horses. Mingled burning
to death are the heartrending voices
OF the caretakers of some of the finest
bred animals in the west, many of
which are only just arrived from
France, Belgium and England.
Scenes of reckless bravery are being
enacted by some of the grooms who are
facing death by rushing into a verita-
BILE caldron to save some of the ami
mails.
1t is reported that seven men are
caught in the fire that is threatening to
leap across the few vacant lots that
separate the stockyards from the St.

tion of affairs. The papers also eulo-
gize Director Mateucci for his courage
in returning to the ruined observator

that place messages of announcement
and expressions cf confidence that We
suvius will soon quiet down.

LIVERPOOL WHEAT MARKET.
Greatest In WorId-No Pit or Loud
Trading.


Trading.
Is Liverpool the greatest wheat mar
ket in the world? Chicago is a great
er speculative market, and Minneap-
oils is the greatest primary market.
Yet Liverpool, buying wheat in all
quarters of the world, and, besides, do
ing a large business in futures, exerts
an influence on prices in all exporting
countries greater than any other mar
ket. 1t has an individuality possessed
by no other, for it is the central mar
ket of the world and cares less what
others are doing than other important
markets care what it is doing.
The United Kingdom imports over
200,000,000 bushels of wheat and flour
reckoned as wheat annually. All the
large wheat growing countries are ex-
porters to a greater or lesser extent,
with Liverpool the principal buyer,
and, as three-fourths of the trading in
futures of the United Kingdom is done
in this market, it is bound to have
great influence in final price making.
A popularity of this great market,
the Liverpool Corn Trade association,
as the exchange is called, is the seem
ingly ordinary, businesslike appear
ance and lack of all rush and excite
ment, strain and nervous tension, such
as is always in evidence on the Chica-
go board of trade.
There is no pit on the Liverpool ex-
changes and no noisy trading or dem
onstration of any kind. The room in
which the future trading is done is
very small, as compared with Ameri-
can exchanges, and the members or
their clerks stand around in conversa-
tional groups during a time of no spe-
cial activity.
The hours of the exchange are from
1890 to Ais, but from 1 to 3 the
room will often be nearly deserted for
luncheon, There can be, in fact, no
better illustration of the difference
between this market and American
exchanges, in speculative atmos-
phere," than this. Here the sessions
are long and lacking in excitement and
intense interest. In America they are
short, and no one thinks of going to
luncheon until the gong rings at lis.
In Liverpool there may be thousands
at stake in the market but it is as
if it were in real estate-the turns
of the market are slow. In America
the market is watched like the turn
of the dice.
Big traders may reverse their posi-
ton in the market in an hour, buying
or selling hundreds of thousands of
bushels and making or losing thous-
ands Of dollars. 1t is slower in Liver
pool but the result is the same
