THE SPECULATIVE MARKETS, Bloom s Staggering Undor a Big Load of May. THAT FUTURE STILL A MYSTERY. 1t Oloses At a Shrinkage of Uver Four Cents Since Monday-—-A Slightly Increasing Interest in Corn —Cattle Fair, COHICAGO PRODUCE MARKET, Cnioaao, April 8.—[Special Telegram to Tae Brr. |—May wheat broke to 95ige to- day, a sheer descent of 4c as compared with Monday. There wae a partial recovery afterwards, the price going to 9ilge, but there was May wheat ‘‘on top” all day, and it worked back to %63¢c, where it hung for a long time, but closed at 953¢c, a shrinkage of 4lgc since Mouday. The May wheat deal is now a mystery to whose solution the general attention is directea. Fairbank was asked: ‘“What is the matter with May ("’ He grinned and said he had heard that “Bloom was un- loading his wheat.” The latter had the temerity to load up with May and then brag that he was going to ride up on the clique’s shoulders, A spokeman for the clique gave it out that if Bloom could not be ‘“shaken out,” the deal would be abandoned, and from the way May wheat was offered it looked as if the threat might be in process of execution. Bloom announced Monday that he had wheat margined down to 90c, and in the next breath he said he was “out of wheat.” He did not act to- day as though he was out of wheat, however much he might like to be out. He had a *‘flag of distress raised,” one of his acquaintances said. All this relates to the personal phase of the market, and not to tho legitimate situa- tion or the hatural causes or effects. The crowd 18 greatly amused at the efforts of the clique to shake off the “tailers,”” and will applaud whoever wins. All told, possibiy 1,000,000 bushels of May wheat was worked Off during the session. How much of this was for ‘‘tailers’ " account and how much for “*clique” account none of course can tell. There was good trading in July and little doing in June. July opened at S53¢c, sold off during the first half hour to § 1t steadied around and slowly crawled up to 86¢c. From that point it slid back to Sblgc about noon, but during the last hour a stronger feeling developed and a substantial recovery in prices followed. The market got back to 80i¢c, and was steadily held. The close was 86%7c, or only }sc below Mon- day, The feature of the trading was the healthy general inquiry for deferred futures on a seemingly legitimate basis ‘Chere is & slight increaec of business beinj displayed by the speculators in corn, but it has not resulted so far in much activity, to- day’s transactions being confinea largely to the first two hours, after which_there was the usual dullness'in the pit. Prices were, however, more decidedly upward to-day than for some time, although the resulting ad- vance was more pronounced in July than in any of the other futures, with May no higher iu_ the end than it closed on Mon- day. Navigation may be said to have opened. One propeller cleared with a load of corn yesterday. The schooners G. J. Boyce and_the Naiad wera chartered y at 2 for Sarnia. The firm- ness of the Liverpool market backed up by excellent shipping demand at tne seaboard and the active buying of daily car load re- serves here were stimulating causes of the good inquiry which prevailed for speculative utuces. There was especiully a good de- mand for July, which led to more than the usual proportion of transactions i this month, % Oats ware in moderate demand and fairly altive early at nearly Monday’s prices. The buying orders were evidently soon satisfied, however, and in sympathy with the weak- ness elsewhere the market ruled dull and 1 @'4c lower. Muy was the favorite, selling from 26%c down to 25}¢c, with a final recov- ery of nearly {c, with June in some request and other months dull. The speculative business was mostly local in character and tho cash movement was unimportant. No. 2 oats to go to store were weaker at .A"’@ 24%c. Later in the session there was in- creased selling, with prices finally resting at the bottom, Interest in the provision trade was con- fined largely to pork. Short ribs were held steady at last Monday's prices to a shade easier, and in lard the changes experienced were restricted to small limits. In pork, however, the boars were aggressive and in a large measure in_control, the monthly stock showing being from 10 to 15 barrels larger than was expected. The, denrocnwumgcd to pound the market, und as a consequence a severe depression was suffered. In pork for May and July the day’s actual decline was 22340, and for June ¢, Lard closed 24@5c lower than Monday’s best quotation. B CHI0AGO LIVE STOOR.

Nrw Yonrg, April 8.—[Special Telegram to Tur Beel—Stocks—The fairly good feoling in stocks at the close yesterday oaused many to be hopeful this morning. The opening also gave some encouragement. There was n spirit of activity, and vrices with few exceptions, were ' to }§ botter whan at the close. London had afew orders, while Boston was on the buying side of Atchison, New England and Union Pacific. There was good business the first hour, with the greater part of the trading in Atchison, Northwestern, Reading, Union Paafic, Lackawanun, New England and Chicago Gos. There was no positive bull influence noticeable after the opening, nor was there any cause for depression at once, The list held ‘steudy with some stocks a fraction beuter and a few a trifle lower than the first fgures unti! the end of the hour, when there was o downward tendency. When the weak- uness came Lackawanna went off a point, fol- lowed vy fractionat declines in Reading and Missouri Pacific. It was remarked that Atchison and Chicago Gas were pretty wel! sustained. Toward noon the sentiment changed, and Atchison became the center of auimation with weakness and a loss of 3§ per cent. ‘I'he rest of the list suffered from Qullness, and the drooping tendeucy con- tinued. With the exception of a slight spurt about 11:80 the market was heavy until noon, when the sales were 140,505 shares and prices were below the opening figures, The plosing hours of tho stock market were marked by some nervousness. Readivg, Rock Island, Union Pacific and Chicago Gas showed further declines, followed by some galus bofore the close. The bearish focling of the duy was largely due Lo the unfavor- able statements regarding the net earnings of the granger roads. ‘Lhe principal losses for the day wero 1 point in Uunion Pacific, 13 \n Missouri Pacifio, % In Louisville, Nashville and Burlington aud % in Chicago Gas, New Eogland, Rock Island and St. Paul.

PENsACOLA, Flu., April 8.—[Special Tele: gram to Tug Bee.]—The British steamship Falshaw,Captain Bennett, from Cape Verde, arrived here last evening bringing intelli- gence that the United States man-of war, Brooklyn, had been found in midocean in dis- tress and without provisions. Captain Hen- nett said that at noon of Tucsday, March 26, he sighted a vessel about seven miles off his ort bow flying flags of distress and eignal- ing the English vessel to come closer. A riving within speaking distauce Capti nett found the distressed stranger to be the Brooklyn. A boat put off from the latter containing Lieutenant Heald, Surgeon Beardsley and the ship steward. Lieutenant Heald explained that the Brooklyn had broken her main shaft and had damaged her other machinery. In addition to this they were out of provisions and asked the Enghshman's assistance, which Captain Sennew freely gave, replenishing the Brooklyn's larder most liberally. The Brooklyn was proceed- ing under sail from Honolulu to New York and had been at that time 137 days “out, Lieutenant Heald declined all offers of fur- ther assistance and tho vessels parted.

The unassuming merits of Van Duzer's flavoring ex- tracts derived from choice fruit, of standard purity, and clected over a quarter of a century ago to the chief place among fluvors, are too well known to need more than n},’cnu‘nl reminder. Cheap competiton of valuless articles heighten the popularity of these. All grocers. —— .
