THE SPECULATIVE MARKETS. ‘Wheat Showing Signs of Healthful Activity. CORN CLOSES AT A DECLINE, Oats Attract Fair Attention—Pro- vigions Repulse the Pounders— Little or No Ohiange in Cat- tle Values—Hogs. CHICAGO PRODUCE MARKETS. Cnicaco, April 8.—[Special Telegram to Tie Bee.|—Freed from manipulation the wheat market is once more showing signs of healthful speculative activity. Tommission merchants almost uniformly report improv- ing business, and everything on the specula- tive list scems to be “limbering up.” The market to-day has to some extent the “liqui- dating” features that have characterized it for several days past, but the weakness was followed by marked improvement. Timid and weak longs threw wheat early, and pa- tient shorts did considerable covering on soft spoth, The markets everywhere on this side of the Atlantic were weak and lower, and cables presented a front of dullness and weakness, though there were intimations that the foreigners were pushing quiet in- quiries for good wheat not only at the sea- board but in Chicggo. The northwest was especially and noticeably weak, Minneapo- lis oper.ed 83c off. It recovered some, but was at no time strong. The western winter wheat markets were soft and spiritless on the fine weather and on the partial demorali- zation here. The local sentiment is tremend- ously bearish on everything in sight—wheat, corn and provisions. 1t 18 scemingly almost unanimous, and nothing is_‘any good,” in the language of the street. When opinion is in that shape “bargain hunters” begin to come out of their retirement. The foreizners are about the best “bargain hunters" in the rain trade, and ns the day advanced the fmpression bocame stronger. among the con- servatives that the foreigners were awake to their opportunitics, The shipping houses did not appear anxious to advertiso’ tho fact, but they were, nevertheless, picking up choice wheat that was looking around for customers. On merit, that 18 to say, on its actual milling values, Chicago wheat is down about to a parity with the other markots, and this fact is commonly recognized in the grain trade. The crowd got ‘‘onto" this shipping gossip towards the ciose of the ses- sion, and gave the market a firm closing at a substantial recovery from the inside prices. Previous to that, however, everything looked gloomy. July opened at 833¢c, a loss of Jic over night. 1t sold off 10 Sc right away. At this price Cudahy and several local op ©rators began to cover short sales, and an advance of 1c was started. As the market kept going up u lot of little bulls caught on, but when the market started back from 8¢, and again broke, after @ smart_bulge to Silge, they 'tumbled their stuff over once more. The market broke to 88lgc, and was groggy between 8314 @S3%c for the better partof an hour. Around noon the late recovery above re- ferred to carried the price to Sdc, und the lust quotation was 887¢e, the sawme as last night. Bears who put out new lines on the second break did not fare well asa rule. Trade in May and June was light, but the uations were sharp. As on yosterday, Mwo months kept closo to day, May o 1t 860, 801d Off to S41e, and. with fro. t and nervous jumps and breaks, climbed up to S6ige. The close wus at S61y¢ for May and June, or !{c better than yesterday. The corn market opened easier, which was generally ascribed to the influence of the lowoer prices ruling for wheat, but the fa- voruble weather for farm operations was doubtless an additional feature of the weak- ness influencing speculators. The opening prices were around the_figures prevailing at the eloso. vesterday, but soon weakened under the liberal offerings induced by the aforementioned considerations. At 833gc for May, which was the price soon after the opening, there was good inquiry, which pre- vented further decline at that timne, and the market then became very dull. ' Aftera period of slugrish inactivity another spell of heavy sciiing commenced, and it brought about @ further decline of o in May, the price for that future getting down to 85¢, and July, which was also_very freely offered, sold down to #57¢c. At those prices there appeared heavy buying orders, and the market may be smd 10 have stood its pounding remarkably well. The closing prices were near the bottom, however, and show a 1088 since yesterday at the corrdsponding time of about % on May and July, and ke on June und September, Oats attracted fair attention on the part of traders, though tho volume of the specula- tive business was much less thun yesterday, and the price changes were confined within a narrow chanael, averaging nearly stoady to There wero reports of a probabla 2 early outward movement of cash oats 1 u result of tho free sales of April, yests duy, and 25c was again bid for this month to-day, with light business in No. 2 oats to go to store at 25lge. May ‘was a favorite flltule with fair trading carly ot a st figure of 2jc, {mproving 30 to 353¢0 and tho_ lattor rulia g more quiet, with June and .lul_\' at the com- mon range of 25¢ to 2514 (W251{s Out inspec- Tion was moro. liberal, agerogating 15,600 Dbushels, and a sale was recorded of 200 cars of No. 4.frce on board at 25}ge. In provisions the feeling was quite strong after the morning Lour or so of the session. At tho opening pork was raided with con- siderable vigor, but as it refused to break casily and was scarcoly followed at all on the receding turn by short ribs and lard, the raiders soon became tived of their undertak- ing. Tho stubborness of the entire marlket discouraged the pounders, and on their with- darawal the decline forced ' was practically re- covered, During the greater portion of the chiarge trade acted as if the weak-knced holders had pretty generally unloaded, and the condition of uffairs had improved. In pork there was more or less dowg through- out, but in the other lines the day's trading made a poor showing. CHICAGO l;l\'b STOOK. Crucaco, April 0. |h])u41nl Telegram to Tue Bk |—Cartie—The run was some- what greater thay expected, and, notwith- standing that the receipts so far show an in- crease of 5,000, the demand was fair, and about all were sold, with little or no change in prices as compared with yesterday or the close of last week. Such steer stock as suited the regular trade, exporters, shippers and dressed beef operators, sold well up to the best prices so far. Some prime corn-fed Texans made §3.50 and a similar lot made 83.70 yesterday. No grass Texans were in sight this amorning, Cow stock, and in fact all de- scriptions of butchers' stook, are fully as high a8 last week..

There was a disposition to watch a few securities and neglect the greater part of the list. Atchison was the leading stock, and scored a further decline of 2 points the first hour. Attheupening there was a steady feeling, first prices being but a fraction either way from the ciose last night. From the first there was a slight declide throughout «he list, in which Burlington lost 3¢, Lacka- viauna i, New England %, Rock Isiand 3¢ aud Union Pacific 4. The early weakness was followed by a better fecling, and at 1 a, m. the list regained the first figures. Aside from Atchison the best activity was shown by Burlington, New England, Missourl Pa- eific & St. Paul. After 11 o'clock Atchison alone relieved the dullness, and the chunges o prices were nsigeificant, The closivg g e 1 i hours to-day brought a very fair return of strength to the entire list. The declines of the morning were regained, and of the stocks showing any activity Atchison alone showed n loss of nearly a point for the day. The net gains at the close were 1 per cent in Union Pacific and Chicago Gas, 14@% per cent in Lake Shore, Missouri Pacific and Rock Is- land, % in Cotton Oil and St. Paul, with but a slight fraction for the rest of the list. The total sales were 200,841 shares, including Northwestern 7,000; Union Pacific, 8,400; Burlington, 11,000; New England, 84003 Reading, 10,600; Missouri Pacitic, 11,900, The following were the closing quotations: U. 8. 48 regular. 128% Northern Pacific.. 25% 18, 4% cou 28% | _dopreferred...... 0% T8 Aigh rogulnr 107 (. & No W b4 coupons. 107 %0 prereried... fic B of i 5 sentral Hock Yo C., M. & St. Ao prsferted. ... |8t.Paul & Omaha 10%| do preferred lon Pacific St L, & P, do preforred. . | Westorn Urton hicago & Alton. . 125 Chiei o, Burlington [ ox: Lake Shore Michigan Ceutral Missourl Pacific MoxEY 0N Cart—Easy; 3@# per cent.

Derrort, special Tele- gram to Tig .]—Maxwell M. Fisher re- cently sccured a divoree, was sued for §100,- 000 for breach of promise, himscif sued a aper for 000 hbel, and married a wowan haif bis age all within one day. He is & millionaire and owns the board of trade building. He visited the board yesterday and found the members angry on accotint of the dust being raised by the tearing down of awall of the building, Broker Donovan asked him to stop tearing down one wall until the building of another would keep the dust out: of the board room. Fisher then picked up half a brick and threw it at Dono- van. The latter slugged Fisher so vigorously that he seized a carpenter’s broad axe and made a vicious run_at Donovan, Somebody Then he called Donovan several hard names and Donovan promptly knocked him down again. Fisher got up and appealed to Broker Ando son. Receiving no sympathy he called An- erson the same names he had applied to Douovan. Anderson then struck Fisher, who went down for the third time, The million- aire concluded that the board of trade was too warm for him and went home to his young wife. He is preparine to iustitute more suits, RADE. Carnegio as an Ant HARRISBUR April 9.—|Special Pele- gram to Tue Br Andrew Caruegie, the illionaire iron manufacturer, deliuered an address in the house of representatives last evening, in which he made some startling statements. He said the Pennsylvania rail road company discriminated against the in- dustries of Pennsylvania in freight charges, and was rapidly driving them out of the state. On account of these extortionate charges he said the value of farm labor was depreciated. He had given that corporation Jaikd in western Pennsylvania through which to lay their tracks, but he was determined now to prevent thém from using it. He said the people had as much right t0 take up arms against the Pennsylvania company’s policy as they had Lo mslcud the nation, ——— ts to Resign.
