CHICAGO, Trr, May 29.—The wheat market assumed a hollday aspect to-day, moving very lit- tle either way and showing no feature either in the trade or situation. A report that harvesting was started in Southern Kansas and that the wheat was showing even better than expected had s sentimental effect on the market early, but later prices revived on moderate covering by shorts. The action of prices was irregular and was gov- erned by the preponderance of buying or selling to clean up for the week and the mouth, without par- ticular reference (o statistical items. Receipts to-day were 13 cars for Chicago and 377 in the Northwest. The lat.er section hiad 295 cars a week ago and 400 cars for two davs a year ago. Local 1nspections from store were 69,050 bushels. Liverpool cables were firm and_14d higher. A break af 114c in May wheat at New York caused weakness in this market at one time during the session, but It was not permanent.

Dun & Co. in their weekly review of trade to-morrow will say: Failures for the week have been 239 in the United States, against 215 last vear, and 20 against 34 in Canada last yeer. Continued exports of gold are recognized as natural results of the borrowing ang importing early in the year, but caused no appre- nension. There Is a general conviction that de- structive schemes will not succeed, although at present political uncertainties cause part of the business that might be done to be postponed until the future is more clear. When the couventlons are over the field for doubt will be much narrower. Markets for products are weak, rather than stag- nant. ‘The business done is small, but largely governed by the belief in large crops and insufficient de- mand. Wheat has fallen 3 cents. Couon has fallen 14 in spite of continued reports that famine vear. The market for goods is lifeless, a reduc- tio. of indigo blue prints 1a 10 4 cents, the lowest of record, being the chief feature. Wool sales, clusiveot a few specutative transactious based on extreme low prices, are less than 40 per cent of & week's fair cousumption. . Dress goods are quie. and dealings in men’s wear are still unsatisfaciory. Boots and shoes shipments, 6 per cent larger than last year., then the largest on record. indi- cate that in'some branches makers are caiching op with their orders, and many are discharging cutters.. Yet many others have orders for months ahead, and sales still run large for the season. "Fhe fron and steel markets are weak, with lower rices, because the demand for finished =products entirely inadequate, though prices of these are high. Pigiran has fallen over 6 per cent since April 1, but the average of finished products are vanced 3 per cent. Lower quotations for bessemer and gray forge and local coke at Chicago, with stoppage of two- thirds of the furnaces in Virginia, some in Pennsylvania and others in the Mahoning and Shenango valieys, result from ability of manu- facturers to sell at prices which their combina- tions demand, bessemer billets being undersold by open-hearth iron bars, by steel bars and nails by new concerns which are rapidly putting in | machinery. Plates weakened, and there is no improvement In sheets or rods, but beam-makers have raised the price $2 per ton. .uaking a slight advance in the average of all.prices for the k. Itis possible that rebuilding at St. Louis affect iron and steel markets ‘extensively. ‘Ihe minor metals are all a shade stronger. Rallioad earnings for May have been 2.7 per cent larger than last year. BANK CLEARINGS. NEW YORK, N.

In a recent meeting of teachers and other experts on educational matters in Russia, at Moscow, Dr. Noishewski demonstrated an instrument invented by him several years ago, but considerably improved recently, which he calls the ‘electrophthalm,” or “‘electric eye.” This very sensitive instrument is intended to enable the blind by the sense of feeling to observe objects which we see with our eyes. Noishewski uses in the con- struction of his . instruments the two metalloids, selenium and tellurium, both of which will change their quality as conductors of electricity with different conditions of light. The instru- ment constructed by Nolshewski denotes these changes, and, while it does not en- able the blind to see, they will feel the various effects of changing light by means of this apparatus. The Wjedomosti re- ports in a recent number that Dr. Noi- shewsk: has succeeded in having a totally blind man find the windows in a room, and after a_little practice to distinguish ap- Ija_rouc'bmgmen from approaching animals. he inventor is still at work upon im- provements to the ‘“‘electrophthalm,” and hopes to perfect it to such an extent that the blind will be able to tell almost with certainty when approaching opaque or transparent objects, which would be a great ;tlx_-xdde toward bettering the condition of the ind. —_———— THE CALL CALENDAR.
