PARIS HORSE BUS NO MORE.
Vehicle Run for Centuries Replaced
by Modern Motor.

Special Cableeram to The Star.
PARIS. May 2s.-The slowest and most
famous horse bus of Paris, called the
Pantheon-courcelles, which provided fun
for several generations of writer's, Is no
more. 1t has been replaced by a modern
motor bus. Parisians had come to look
upon the Pantheon-C line as one
of the permanent mysteries and jokes OF
the town. 1t was Courteline who first
discovered that the line ended nowhere.
There is no such place in Paris as the
Place Courcelles. The latter is thought
to mean the Place Pereire, which is alone
to be found on the map, but the omnibus
company, which never corrected q mis-
take, persisted for nearly half q century
In hosting Courceiles over its buses.
No Partisan had ever been able to learn
by heart the many streets and crooked
thoroughfares through which the Pam
theon- CourceIles bus wound its way.

CHICAGO.

CHICAGO. May Discontinued drought
in western Kansas permitted the bulls to-
day to bid up wheat. The weather map
showed good rains in the southern and
eastern part of the state and also in Mis-
souri, but not in the section necessary to
make sure a bumper yield. The opening
varied from Il of to u advance. July
started at 1.lVis to 1.1OA. q gain of \
to u. and rose to 11O5s.
Although corn displayed sympathy
prices later receded owing to q break in
the quotations for hay. July opened a
shade off to u up at 76,t a7611 to 76M,
touched 7essa76a4. and fell back to 76ss.
The fact that pit offerings We're light
put backbone into the market for oats
Cash houses bought July. That month
started unchanged to Y higher, at sou to
JO1a. and ascended to 50A.
Provisions worked lower on account OF
selling by stock yard spectators. Weak
ness in the price Of live hogs furnished
the reason. Initia, sales ranged from s
decline to 2h advance with September
delivery 1896 for pork. 10 7oh to 10. IS for
lard and l0.2713 for ribs.
