CHICAGO.
[Special Telegram to the Globe. |
Chicago, July 1. — In these summer days,
irben the velume of transactions on the
board is uot over large at the best, any little
episode ou the floor causes a good deal of
comment. Yesterday's sale of 500,000 bush
els of wheat by Schwartz to Nat Jones was
the talk of the alley. Swartz's known bear
ish predilections caused most of the boys to
think that, the deal was an individual specu
lation of Schwartz'B, but this was contradict
•il by -'one who knowns." Said he: "The
order was given to sell the wheat and
Schwartz was only lucky enough to find a
purchaser for it in a lump, instead of baying
it scattered through a half dozen hands."
"Was any limit given on the order as to
price I"
'•Certainly, but Swartz really got a better
price than was expected. When he came off
the board and reported the sale he told his
customer that Jour-, had bid for 500,000
inure
"Why didn't you lei him have it?" ex
claimed the customer. Although there were
few developments in Wa.ll street calculated
to exert special Influence on values in grain
and such an reported were favorable to sell
ers, stocks during the greater part of the ses
sion showing advancing tendency, the market
were weak. A further severe break was re
garded in ;ill prices for speculative articles
and the feeling was distrustful as to the fu
ture. The largest activity was observed in
wheat circles, prices of which suffered the
ino-t severe decline. The bulls were appar
ently without hope, while tin- bears, rendered
confident and .-u^Ti^-ivc by recent successes
were disposed to hammer the market with
increased viu r '>r and they met little resistance
from the bulls, tin- situation being largely
aggravated by tin- presence of cash wheat
delivered on contracts, which the receivers
were anxious to rid of without
replacing it with longer futures,
and uinler the constant realizing pressure the
course of prices was almost, steadily down
and closed at about bottom figures. The
ln-ars appear to think that the preseni favora
ble crop reports and the fact that the winter
wheat, harvest i - rapidly progressing, war
rants early arrivals of new wheat in large
volume.
This conclusion, however, is hardly justi
fied by the example of the la^i few years. On
the contrary, farmers are not the needy hold
ers that they were a decade <>r two back, and
it is scarcely reasonable to assume that any
considerable quantities of the new wheat
crop will be forced mi the market at the cur
rent prices.

NEW YORK.
I Special Telegram to the Globe.l
New ToHKjJuly 1. — Stocks wavered at the
opening this morning and the bears succeed
ed in depressing prices for a short time.
Orders for the properties soon made their
appearance, however, and as the day advanc
ed the market grew stronger, and before the
morning was over values had improved and
their was a much better feeling. Some of
the best houses bought Northwestern, Lake
Shore, Telegraph and Delaware and Lachaw
anna in no small amounts. There were nosen
sational rumors afloat as the bears were so busy
in curtailing their losses they did not
find time to manufacture. Omaha prefered
more than regained its dividend as did Lake
Shore. Canada Southern was up four points
from last evening's figures. There was a
big business in Union Pacific, and the stock
made a handsome advance. There are many
believers in the property at about 30, and
considerable amounts have been bought and
paid for during the past week. Several of
the high priced stocks were rather neglected.
The market became quite buoyant towards
the finish. The Grangers were very active
and up to the best figures of the day, as were
several others. The bulls appeared to con
trol the situation when the exchange closed.
A. M. Day says: "The market opened
heavy but a change soon took place, occa
sioned by the fact that no interest was de
faulted (with the exception of Denver) and
good crop news."
Dillon says there is no truth in report of
his embarrassment. The rumor grew out
of the fact that he was an endorser of Wabash
paper and declindd to pay as did others, al
lowing notes to go to protest. Denver man
agers will .submit a proposition to the bond
holeers at an early date, the na
ture or which will not be announced

The short interest is quite large enough to
further advance the market but there seems
to be no other buyers of importance. The
market is in a condition that it can be easily
be put ou down, but the fact that the rise
has been due to the shorts is not much 61 an
argument for permanent improvement.
The market closed strong with indications
favorable to astrong opening.

The Northern Pacific Cheerful.
[Special Telegram to the Globe.]
Washington-. July 1. — The Northern Pa
cific has mingled grief and happiness just
now. The report of the senate committee ;
favoring the forfeiture of the land grants
west of Wallula seems to be disturbing the
officials of that company very much. The
action of the house in defeating the "Back
bone" forfeiture bill is very satisfactory to
them. The "Backbone" forfeiture was de
feated on the ground thatcongress had not the
authority to forfeit land fairly earned by the
contraction of the road after the time fixed
for the work to be done, and as this is pre
cisely the condition of the Northern Pacific
east of Wallula, it is pretty evident that
the bill forfeiting the lands east of Wallula
will not pass. In other words the Northern
Pacific will get all of its land from Lake Su
perior to the eastern portion of Oregon. some
thirty or forty millions of acres, - and will
lose perhaps a half million between ■■ Wallula i

[Special Telegram to the Globe.]
Washington", July 1. — The prevailing
opinion at the capital to-day was that an ad
journment on Saturday would be almost im
possible and great discontent was expressed
on all sides, as well among Republicans as
Democrats. This was basad mainly upon
the idea that the senate appropriation com
mittee were finding more work in the sun
dry civil bill than had been anticipated and
that it could not be reported before to-mor.
row night and would occupy the attention of
the senate all day Thursday and perhaps a
portion of Friday. Another complication
arose from the slow progress made in the
senate, river and harbor bill, which was
being discussed with as ir ich precision and
senatorial deliberations as if the session was
in its infancy. It seemed also as if the house
found it impossible to repress discussion on
reports of committees of conference on po6t
oflice and army appropriation bills, and there
fore the hopes of members who expected to
shake Washington dust from off their shoes
by Saturday night, were apparently crushed,
and they were endeavoring to reconcile them
selves as best they might .to the inevitable.
BETTER OUTLOOK.
Things, however, took a turn for the bet
ter in the senate, when Senator Plumb in a
few well chosen but pointed re
marks this afternoon roused that
body from its comatose state.
The result was the river and harbor bill was
passed, notwithstanding Senator Hoar's long
speech in defense of his action in voting for
the river and harbor bill two years ago. It
seems Senator Hoar has kept this speech on
ice for a long time, and fired it off to-day,
much to the dismay of those colleagues who
were anxious to adjourn. Nevertheless sen
atorial courtesy predominated, and the Mas
sachusetts senator was safely accouched of
his long pent-up offspring. It is said that
little difficulty will ensue with the house over
the senate amendments to the river and
h;irbor bill, and therefore the bill will not
interfere with adjournment. The sundry civil
bill has been agreed upon and will be
■feported in the senate to-morrow and passed.
Executive, legislative and judicial fortifica
tions, deficiency, naval and diplomatic oppo
sition bills arc now in conference. The post
office and army bills were practically agreed
upon to-day. The naval and diplomatic are
the only bills which promise serious trouble
between the house and senate.
plumh's views.
Senator Plumb, of the appropriations com
mittee, stated to the Globe correspondent
to-nigbt t'uat he saw no reason why adjourn
ment could not be secured by Satnrday. He
• did n<ft believe the, hiris* would recede from
its position of opposition to the con
struction: of the new steel cruis
ers, and that would compel tiding
over until next session, when the fight will
be resumed. He thought the senate would
insist upon its amendments to the diplomatic
bill and some acceptable compromise might
be secured. , The house had cut down the
consular and diplomatic service to painful
proportions and the senate had only perform
ed a duty to the country by remedying var
ious injustices. A vote will be taken to
morrow on the fortifications bill and the
opinion to-night is that the minority report
of Randall will be sustained. This may
complicate matters if the senate adheres to
its amendment. If, however, the minority
report carries, the fortification bill will be out
of the way.
sat nowx ox.
The honse sat down heavily on Townshend
of Illinois, by striking out of the postoffice
appropriation bill clauses, deducting five per
cent, from the compensation of land grant
railroads for mail transportation. The same
clause being in an army bill for the transpor
tation of supplies, It settles that question
also. Townsbeud who has charge of the
postoffice appropriation bill, was likewise de
feated by the adoption of the senate amend
ment increasing postal clerk service.
I'UESIUF.XTI.VI. GOSSIP.
There was considerable political talk at the
capitol to-day. While the Cleveland boom
was very quiet and apparant*
■y put in its little bed, that fact
did not seem to increase the booms of any
other candidate^ There was no disputing
the fact that Tilden had pronounced Cleve
laad'e candidacy inexpedient under the ex
isting eireumstanc*.'s,*but much curiosity is
manifested to know what other candidate
will prove satisfactory to New York. Every
body watches the utterances of the New York
Sun, which, whether rightfully or wrongfully,
is regarded as expressing Tilden's view.
To-day's issue warns the Democracy that to
repeat their plank of tariff for revenue only
as in ISBO, witl encompass certain
d- feat of the party. It directs attention
to the anxiety of the Republicans to
make the tariff the only living
issue. and asserts that if they are
gratified in this regard their victory
i< certain. There is great depression among
Republican leaders who anxiously await the
possible nomination of what they are pleased
jto call li a mistake" at Chicago. That is
their main reliauce, and hence they express
srreat satisfaction at the mixed and uncer
tain condition of affairs in New York. They
Lire also much exercised over the fact that
eading religious journals which circulate
largely in New York. New Jersey, Pennsyl
vania and Ohio all condemn the nomination
of Blame, and this is far more
dangerous to Blame than the op
positiou of the independents. This was
the element which stood by Garfield regard
less of the attacks upon his personal integrity
but it is now antagonistic to Blame. Com
plaint is made that Blame's canvas 3 should
not have been entrusted to the management
of Elkins and Chaff ee. for the reason that
neither stand as highly in the public estima
tion as others who could be. named. They
are good workers as adjuncts in certain di
rections, but do not fill all necessary require
ments. Another cause of dissatisfaction is
the war being made in Pennsylvania by
Blame's supporters upon Don Cameron and
Simon Cameron. They are still powerful
and better to hare as friends than foes.
Cameron's influence, it Is said, is sufficiene
to throw the state of Pennsylvania to the
Democracy, if the Democratic candidate be
reasonably acceptable. Fifteen or twenty
Democratic senators intend to leave by
special train lor Chicago on Saturday morn -

WASHBURN VS. SABIN.
He Slakes the St. Vincent Row Pretext
For An Assault.
I Special Telegram to the Globe. 1
St. Vincent, Minn., July 1. — The St.
Vinleent and Manitoba fight over the custom
house and railroad is waxing warm and hot,
and is liable to culminate in a war between
the politicians in the fourth district, as will
be seen from the (following communication
to Mr. Deacon from Hon. W. D. Washburn:
Mr. Bookwalter is merely the tool of the
syndicate who had been running the politics
of our legislature for the past few years. He
is an appointee of Mr. Sabiu, and will, of
course, obey the mandates of his master. I
am really surprised that Mr. Hill should have
permitted the railroad to have been made a
party to their business. My sympathies in
this matter are entirely with my friends at
St. Vincent, and I shall be glad to aid them
in any way that I can properly do so.
[Signed.] W. D. Washbubx.
In how far this portion of Mr. Washburn's
letter pertains to the helping out of St. Vin
cent people in their present diiHculties with
the Manitoba railroad remains to be seen.
If Mr. Deacon had given a full copy of the
letter to the public the readers of the Globe
might understand the object of it. Hs it is
now it is nothing less than a drive at Sena
tor Sabin, and that Hon. Mr. Bookwalter
should come in for abuse because he has po
litical friends is another of Mr. Washburn's
unsolved conundrums.

Democracy is unanimous for Cleveland since

Judge Field, of California gets tome of his

the nomination upon Tilden, that no friend
of Tilden has anything to do with it, that it
is the work of a crank, aided by lesser
cranks.

CLOTHING.
An Every Day Scene in my Large Oil lisa !
Notwithstanding the almost universal cry of " hard times'*,
our trade continues to increase and is way ahead of last year
so far. There must be some reason for this, and any thoughtful
man who • stops to think can easily see the reason why we' 1
%hould secure the trade of the people. It is our low" prices and
"Square Dealing" that do the business for us. We have always
i made it a rule to sell our goods at the Lowest. Possible percent
age of living profit, and buying in large quantities direct from
! the manufacturer, enables us to literally retail goods at whole
sale prices. • Just now we are having a big run on our
#5 ME2NPS SUITS. ;
These make tip top working suits, and are worth $2 more than
we ask for them. Our ' ; :
$8 & #10.AJl-wool Suits
Are good enough for anybody to wear, and are fully worth $12
and $14. Our
©12 and Sls All-Wool Suits '
Are.simply perfect, and retail in this city in other stores for $16
and S2O. We are the leaders of low prices and never allots
ourselves to be undersold,
