THE SPECULATIVE MARKETS, A Dull Day Witneesed in Wheat Transactions. AN EASIER FEELING IN CORN., The Provision Trade Irregular on In- creased Packing of Hogs in the West—Cattle and Hog o Quotations. CHICAGO PRODUCE MARKETS, Curcaco, duly 5.—[Special Telegram to Tur Bee.]—This has been a dull day in the wheat market, Domestic market news and popular speculative sentiment tends to the development of weakness, but there is @ stibbornness of undertone that surprises the ‘talent.”” Cables came in very strong and imparted to the market a degree of sttength eariy that resulted in a complete recovery from the opening low range, which was }g¢ uuder Wednesday's close, but this recovery was subsequently lost. Lastprices were about the inside for the day. The board’s cabic noted the coufirmation of the Hungarian crop report damages and an advance in Hungarian flour. The prime cause of the recent strength to the foreign markets seems to be the Russian and Hungarian crop shortages and the birth of a fecling abroad that perhaps the Amer- iean crop might not be as large as early esti- mates lead the world to expect. In some quarters the thought finds expression that the foreign markets ure being “‘worked,” but there does not seem good grounds for this suspicion to rest on, though not a fow marvel that with the foreign demand as urgent as some of the cablos represent, it is somewhat singular that the foreigners are not more active buyers of our seaboard ac cumulations, The northwest is not sending out much news to-day bearing on crop pros- ey TBis I8 taken o medn that the out- ook s brighter, If it was as bad a8 before the recent rains theroe would be a continuation of ruin reports, St. Louis und the southwest is sending in bearish advices, based very largely on “harvester returns.’’ Up to this writing the enormous receipts that were to come in the early part of July have not materialized, but wheat scoms to have been raised just the same. Initial pri were as follows: July Sil{c, September T7%c and December at 7 July with light trading, climbed to 8ilgc Septomber advanced from 77%c to 811¢c” and December from 793¢ to 79%0c. This provml to be the top for the day, and for the last hour and a half or two hours, the market dragged down, yielding very slowly, however. Decemoer got as low s 70%c and closed at 19%c. _July lefo off at Sligo and September at 77%c. This is %c off for July, i{c for September and 1¢c Tor December. ' Business was light. no weather and i ing receipts caused an easier feeling in corn. The do- mestic markets were easier in_sympathy with Obicago. The shipping demand here was good, though at lower prices than ruled Wednesday, and New York reported a good demand prevailing there on both foreign and domestic accounts. Fluctuations were nar- row and the bidding of a local character and small in aggregate. Changes since Wednes day were only from 1-16c to e on scveral delveries, but the differences were against the bulls. Final quotations were: July 853¢c, August 853§ Septembes @ e 4 * Receipts of oats were liberal, and with some two hundred cars estimated for to morrow, there was little desire to trade for future account, the market tending to weak was largely in September h sold at 223¢@22%c, while the fluctua: tions in other monthis were aqually narrow and devoid of special feature, May sold at Aqoiand oo 8 ontaltnigo folstora wore doll bids generally restricted to 22%c, or J¢ lower than Wednesday. ‘Phe provision trade was somewhat irregu- lar, encouraged by Wednesday's weakness ensier prices of hogs and an_inercase of 105, 000 hogs in the past weeld's western packing, as compared with the sume weck last year. The bears opened the market with a° dis— position to forco lower prices. They engaged a little hammering business product of all description made to sell off. The decline forced, however, was short lived, and the ground lost was, in some instances, more than recovered on a short rebound. For porkc the day’s finsl quotation showed a net ad- vance of 23g@ae, lard closed at adepreciation of 2}¢@de and shiort ribs of 2!¢c. CHICAGO LIVE BTOCR MARKET. Cnicaco, July 5.—[Special Telegram to Tue Bee|—Catrie—To-day's supply was made up of 8,000 fresh natives, 200 distillery fed steers and 1,200 Texas, also 3,500 native shipping grades carried over yesterday. The native shipping cattle market ruled slow and wenk throughout, though lizht, handy fat dried feed steers commanded the full Wednes- day closing prices and several orders could not befilled. Floshy grades and heavy fat beeves were “a drug” and difiicult of sale at a concession of full 10c. In fact, it seemed a shame to note so many prime 1500 to 1000 pound aualities going ovor tho scales at from $3.85 to 84 but the demand claimed they were not suif able for the trade at this warm season of the year and_buyers made their own prices. Cattle finished off on grass also met with mosson loss neglect and sold at a decline of many of the rough big builocks not nmhnx an outlet, Native butchering and canning descriptions of cows and mixed lots moved freely at tho advsuces estublished last Wednesday. The small supply of Tex- ans enabled seilers in this brancl to clear the pens at an early hour at strong prices, or figures about 40c higher than & week ago. Some lifo was noted in the stocker and feed- ertrade, but tho volume of business wassmall and valtes no better than of late. Natives, 53 COWS, hnllu aml mixed, :l M@ Hoas—To-day's hog trade opened fairly ac- tive, but closed weak at the established de- cline, Prices from tho start were 23gc lower and soon fell oft bo on heavy and d@10c on light. Few light hog buyers were operating ana but little was done on shipping account in either heavy or light. Paclkors ulso moved alowly, they baving on hand most of yoster- duy's purclinses. Sules of packing and shij ping heavy were principally between §4.30 and $4.35, the lattor flzure securing the prim- est shipping shapes and $4.80 the ordinary ing grades. Mixed sold ata range of 20(@4.40, largely at $4.50@4.575 for the ohoicest bunches. - Light weighits aragged at $4.45@1.50 for sorts generally, though $4.55 $ran wald 1n several iretances sarly. FINANCIAL, New Youk, July 5.—[Special Telegram to Tur Beel—Srocks—Thore was an improved feeling in stock circles last night from tho close on Wednesday. Rumors this moruing wero many and varied. It was claimed that tho banking interests in this aity, Boston and Chicago were demanding & settloment of the railroad wars and that cortoin railway men, having covered their short interests, & scttlement would quickly result. To help tho restoration of confidence London was flsm yesterday and came higher to-dey. The bears claim, however, that ln- vostors aro badly frightened and that there 18 no prospect of regaining the short losses of Wednesday and preceding days, The mar- ket opened this morning with & few profes siounls bearish and commission houses bull- ish, The list opened irregular, with trusts snd & few railroad stocks 3¢ per cent higher, whilo grangers and others which were raided s0 savagely on Wednesday, started about steady and showed, after temporary firm- ness, further declines the first hour. Atchi- ' son went off a point to 813 at 11 &, m. and off 1088} at noon; others sufiered less. Bur- lington Jost % per cent and ralliea o953 Northwestern lost 3 per cent to 1064, Rock Island, after touching 92)(, returned to 98, or 5 per cont over the ciose on Wedues- day. St Paul went oft to 6, Missouri pa- | cific to 603 ana Union Pacific to 50 before icago ks was neglectad, Sugar Lrusts sold at 1T @115 @116/ ; lead trusts, 83@ 3@ Jersey Central sold up a point 10 111 and Delaware & Hudson sold oft 5 per cent to 146, Lackawanna and Reading declined early to 1447 and 46} and reacted later to 1443 and 46% respectively. The pressure on grangers and other stocks con- tinued aftor 12 o'clock and Atchison, North- western and St. Paul touched the lowest points on the present decline. There was a slight reaction from tho lowest figures before the close. Stocks and a few trusts were firm and closed higher, Jersey Central moved up 2 per cent to 112; Loulsville 3§ per cent to 6233 Lake Shore lost 5 per cent to 1028¢; Chicago gas showed a net gain of % per vent, while sugar trusts closed 3 per cent lower, at 1163¢: Atchison sold down to 873, closing 11§ per cent lower for tho day at 38%; North- western sold to 1053 and closed % per cent lower at 106'¢.

The growth of Omaha has been phenowenal, and aespite the draw- back occasioned by the collapse of the boom in suburban real estate, the city has made wore rapid advancement to the position of a commercial metropolis during the past half year than during any other similar period in its history. Ilastern capital sceks invest- ment hereat 6 per cent per annum. Manu- facturers are seeking locations; wholesalers and joobers are increasing their store ca- pacity, and new houses are locating, and the att ention of the shrewd men of the country is attracted to Omaha, they perceiving that this city stunds to-day where Chicago did in 1860, offering advantages to investors here now equal to those offered there then. There is no town in the United States which pre- sents so many direct tangible inducements to manufacturers and dealers desirous of mak- ing money us does this city to-day. Jobbers! and manufacturers’ sals for the past six months will foot upwards of $100,000,000. Building is far 1n_excess of any brevious year, and the supremacy of Omaha as one of the great commercial centers of the United States 1s admitted by experienced and can- did observers, In the state the growth of wealth and population is, if anything, 1n ex- cess of the city, Crops promise a greater abundance of yield than is usnal. The new banking law, strict and well digested, goes into force July 1, and all indications point to a prosperous future for Nebraska and Omaba. PRODUCE MARKETS.

Josoph Oscar~Johnson, who was sent to the county county hospital the other day, is a most romarkable person, sa; a Macon, Ga., dispateh to the New York Herald. His physi¢ian tells him that he is destined to die with a smile on his lips. He isa paralytic. His left side is entirely useless, making his locowo- tion slow and difficult, and rendering 1t impossible for him to follow his trade, that of locomotive engineer. The stroke that has made him so unfortunate came on him some two months ago while ho was in the act of laughing. The result was that the muscles of the face which are brought into play while laughing were either dostroyed or rendered so weuk that he has no con- trol over them whatever. His con- dition ig now that while ho fain would cry over his misfortunes he is compelled to'langh, Itis nota broad and hearty laugh, but a silent laugh, too quiet for a roar and yel more than_a smile. It is a sort of cross bevween a broad grin and a-ha-ha. During a vecital of his troubles, which embrace every gpecies of ill-luck, he laughs as though 1t was all & big joke, and in conse- quence his appeals for aid are m judged. His story is aninteresting one, especially so when he endeavored to have us much fun asCoal Oil Johnny. *My name is Joseph Osear Johuson, name enough to hang me,” he said, “and when 1 reached my majority I fell heir to $30,000. [ wanted tosee the world, and after a trip over the United States [ took a notion to go to Ameri It was there that I bread-fruit tree, and I reckon made the. most mmw«iuu on me for I've been praying for the sight of a bread-fruit tree ever since. After I spent all my monoy I settled in North Carolina,where I married the daughter of & smoking tobacco manufacturer, and she’s there now with five of my child- sn—poor things. Over herein Trenton, 1 South Carelina, T was fixing an 1n- spirator on an engine when the stroke came. The doctors say that I will always laugh, that I will'die laughing. Do 1laugh at jokes? Certainly 1 do, and I hear some every day so old that they have whiskers on them, but I am compelled to lnugh at’em. Lovd knows I don’t want to luugh. 1t’'s awful hard (m afellow to have to laugh tall the time. Think of my telling my wife and children good-by and listening to their prayers for my recovery of health, and yet lxu)glnuu though it was some funny stories they were telling me. Thiuk of the pleasures that [ can’t en- joy. If I go to chureh the congregation puts me down as a fool; and it is o mmt deal worse if [ go to the funeral of even my best friends. I have been kicked all over streets because ladies thought I was laughing at them. 1 spent a terrible mght in the woods s cently. The rain came down in floods, wnd my crippled leg refused to carcy me to a house I'saw in the distanc where I might obtain shelter. Next morning, chilled through and through, s hungry as a wolf and suffering ex- tihg agony in every bone, T 2 to the house and asked for a ¢ of something to_eat. The people me laughing and would not belicve tory. I grew almost desperate, and appealed to them for the love of heaven to Mlicve my distress, but they thought T was only joking and turned me away. No. gentleinen, my laugh is against me.” And then, us the teavs poured from his eyes while he thought over his trou- bles, he was laughing like a hyena. Aro you nervous and_irvitable?
