The trial of Albert V. Bugdon, theraUtwho
I was charged with stealing $2,000 worth of Jew-
!, slry from the house of Illchard T. WUeon of 511
:X aTi'th avenue, iru brought to a olote festerda?
, attornoon, and after two houri' deliberation the
: Jar? returned a verdict of guilty.
iff,. Bug-den testified In his own defenoa In the
i ' morning that Mr. Wilson got htm to do deteo
i Mrs work for the purpose of learning, If possi
ble, tho author of certain anonymous letters
sent to Mr. Wilson at the time of his daughter's
-- xarrlago to Cornollus Vanderbllt, Jr. He was
to get sainplos of the handwriting of certain
, persons. For doing this detective work, Bug-
' den said, Mr. Wilton promised to kIt him
! f 1.000, but did not glre him the money, to he
'; took Mr. Wilson's property to make Mr. Wll-
son come to time. He had been advised by his
f lawyer to secure himself.
; ltlchnrd T. Wilson wos called in rebuttal by
the prosocutlon. He testified:
;' " I uover promised to give Burden 81,000 for
doing detective work for m. I don't owe him
i any money and never did owe him any. I
pever knew he raid I owed him any until 1 was
' sorvsd with a summons from a law office. I
t. pTer went to him to request him to do deteo-
r tire work. Two or three timet he oame to mo
And talked of doing detective work. I be-
I tiered he wanted to go Into that business that
v be wanted to ODon a detective agency. He told
v cue once that he had a brother who was a de
tective In London. Ho Bald be knew n number
, pt newspaper reporters here and discussed
V various matters, lie would stop me In the hall
to tell ms these things. On ono occasion he re-
; erred to the anonymous letters. He told ms
: he thouKht ho could find out all about them.
r Thoro were lies being told and ho knew I wanted
f to find out something. I wanted to find out
f If this man was giving out news concerning my
R family. I suspected lie was engaged In giving
4' Out reports about my family attain. Now ana
.F then I listened to his dotectUe stories. Onco
lie got a totter which he said was In the hand
I writing of a newspaper reporter. There was
. no slguaturo. He nlso got a letter which he
t said was In the handwriting of the superlnten
i dent of tho Knickerbocker Club. Hut I never
;' promised or ottered to pay him $1,000 for
trotting those letters."
t lawyer Robert Noah testified' that Bugden
h had bean ono of his clients.
"I never advised him, though, that he ought
Bto get any property to secure hlmsolf for an
alleged euru ho claimed from Mr. Wilson.
That Is a He. 1 soon found that something was
wrong with htm. Thero was a man named
William Williams, known as Diamond UU1,
ssrhom I had released from the Kings County
5 Penitentiary. Williams came to my ofiloe
'1 after being released. The same day Sugden
If happened In. He struck up an acquaintance
f with Williams, and 1 heard him ask Williams
'I various questions as to how to get rid of stolen
I property. 1 at once became suspicious of bin,
I and went down to Do Lancey Nlcoll'a office and
told Mr. Nlcoll my suspicions. Mr. Nlcoll was
"1 llr. Wilson's counsel and 1 thought It my duty
;f to tell him."

and I will give you just ten minutes to hand It
(out to me. Not a minute longer, do you under
stand I"
j J. F. Yoorhlj, the paying teller, glanced at the
.? chock and saw that it had been mado out for
5 SI. 000 on one of tho checks of the State Bank
J and was made payable to Benjamin Jaffa. No
. such person had an account In the bank, and
, the paying teller asked the man where he got
S tho check.
- "Oh, Just look at the back and see who ln-
F dorses It," replied the man.
K The paying teller did so and read the name
?, "Levy P. Morton."

. arrived he yelled: "The ten minutes are up
J, and I niuit bavo the money."
i The clerks became frightened and dodged be-
b hind their desks. The arrival of the policeman
.' relieved their anxiety, because Jaffa subsided
i and wentquletly to tne police station with the
X policeman. On the way he said to the policeman:

FRTDAT, Oct. 8.
When the transatlantic liners clear from
European ports to-morrow there will bo oyer
80,000.000 sold In transit to this country. The
amount encased or announced to-day for ship
ment from abroad was 04.630,000, of which
81, 500.000 comes from Paris and tho re
mainder from London. The Bank of England
sold to-day over $2,000,000 In Ameri
can easles for export to this country,
which is Included In the above figures. The
total known specie movement. Including- the
$2,300,000 rereiTed during; tho weok, Is now
$8,850,000. The chances are that some gold Is
under way that has not yet been reported, as
some bankers are reluctant to make public their
transactions, and, unless tho gold Is withdrawn
from some ono of the leading banks of Kurope,
like the Bank of England or the Hank of France,
It Is difficult to keep track of the move
ment from abroad. Trustworthy Information Is
that In spite of slightly higher rates of discount
In London the movement will continue on an un
usually extensive scale during the next few
weeks, and It would not bo surprising- If tho
total Imports of gold thU month should foot up
nearly $23,000,000. As already noted in this
column, a part of the specie Is being brousht
over In connection with the reorganiza
tion of the Union Paclflo Railroad. Trans
actions on that account can hardly be described
as special, since the European bankers who have
contracted with the Union Paclflo Iteorganlza
tlen Committee to furnish part of the cash re
quired to pay off the Government lien upon the
road, really owe the money here just as much
as If they had collected commercial acceptances
for their New York correspondents In excess
of th banker's draft drawn upon them.
The bankers who ara Importing specie
do not pretend that there Is much If
any profit In the present transactions, but
It can be stated without fear of contradiction
that the Importations are not being mado at a
I01S. The rates for money here and tho corpo
ration of allot the leading bankers here and
abroad. In financing the purchase of the Union
Paclflo property the first of next month, facili
tate these operations. Later on the imports
will bo made at a fair profit because of the re
tarded movement of cotton, the steady though
moderate repurchases of securities by London,
and the decided falling off In the Imports of
merchandise.
The heavy imports of specie announced to-day
bad very little effect upon th. stock market.
The total transactions were the smallest re
corded on any day since the upward movement
In prices began last summer, and the Improve
ment In prices was not as great as might rea
sonably have been expected. In view of the de
cline that has taken place slnoe the beginning
of the week. Chicago Oaa again supplied a third
of the transactions, and it recovered nearly
half of yesterday's net declines. The rally In It
was not without effect upon the remainder of
the Hit, A good deal of tho buying was obvi
ously to cover shorts, but purchases by Interests
Identified with the property were alto discern
ible. The purchasers ot the Universal and
llutual companies ot Chicago Announced to-day
their programme for financing their proposi
tion by inviting subscriptions At par for
$5,250,000 bonds of a company into which
the two concerns are to be merged. It Is under
stood that the proceods of these bonds will go to
the vendors of the two properties. In addition
the new company is to issue at onoe $2,230,000
of 0 cent, cumulative preferred stock and an
equal amount of common stock. The preferred
stock goes as a bonus to the subscribers to
the bonds, and the common stock will prob
ably be used In large part to compensate the
negotiators for tholr ssrvlces. It appears,
thereforo, that securities of the par value of
$9,730,000 are to be Issued upon properties that
at present have nn outstanding capitalisation of
$3,000,000, upon only ono-half of which divi
dends have been paid. The total capitalization
of the proposed nowcompany.asfarasknown.ls
$10, 30,000. for It Is to retain In the treasury
$1,730,000 of bonds similar to those now of
fered for subscription, and $1,780,000 of pre
ferred stock. It Is computed that If the Chicago
gas companies were capitalized at the same
rate that theso two comparatively small out
side companies are to be capitalized they would
have a capital of $120,000,000.
The noteworthy dealings outside of Chicago
Qas were In (lonoral Klectrlo, the Granger
stocks, Sugar Iteflnlng, American Tobacco, and
Manhattan Hallway. The first and last were
exceptionally strong, and closed materially
higher than yestorday. Sugar Refining was
comparatively heavy, and was one of the few
stocks that dosed fractionally lower than yes
terday. Consolidated Qas was conspicuous
again at a net advance of 6 points. The market
a a whole showed a tendency to advance, but
appears to bo held In check partly by the Inter
est that tho Street taken In the local cam
paign and alto by tho widespread and
protraoted drought at the West Tho
larger Interests aro obviously apathetto,
possibly to an extent for the same reasons that
Influence the rank and file. Trado reports for
the week are full ot encouragement. The most
Important Item In them Is that relating to bank
clearances for the week, which were 14.8 V
cent, larger than last week, 32 V cent,
larger than for tho corresponding week
last year, 3D cent, larger than in 1803, and,
what Is much more to the potnt,ovor7 V cent,
larger than In 1802. The point was made a few
weeks sgo when the stock market was advanc
ing rapidly that Wall street was discounting
the prosperity of the country at too Bwlft a
pace. 1 he figures Just 0. noted, together with the
railway traftlc returns that are oomlng to hand,
suggest, now that tho market has reacted and
become dull, that the country is for once forging
ahead ot Wall street. The closing of the stock
market was firm at a fractional recession from
the best price.

The grain market, were dull and caster today. The

acalplng character. At the opening prlet a advance 1
allgbtly on the unimproved tlrouxht situation and
eoverlnr. of short. Artertbo first transactions, tiuw
evr, prices weakened and slow ly uerllned The
cableawero lower and the reeolpta at the Northwest
wera liberal, whll- small clearance alio contributed
to the reaction. Before the clone prlrea rallied llht

the yield for the .eaaou IM.OW.OOl) bush The visible
supply ts expected to show an Increase for the week
of about 1.800.000 bush, aualnat an Increase a year

"The drought la unprecedented, noth In duranoe and
In area. Tha acreago eeed-d la the lowest averagu
ever known and the condition of the growing wheat
la without parallel. In central btafs farmers are
from fifteen to twenty five dare behind In their seed,

thirty five day. behind. Ploughing has ceated

"There waa a rather steady whsit market to
day. Peoemtwr ranged between 924c and Pic.
and closed at ul,o At llmee i rices were a
little over latt night and at times a little under.
The discouraging influeuoe waa thu weakneas at I lr.
erpool, sd. to 4d lower. There was no break In the
drought an luo prospect of any Nothing waa any
more bullish thau the JUodrrn Millera summary of
the winter wheat position. It declared the drought
unprecedented, and said the area and condltt. n of
th grow lag plant had leen affected In an unparal
laled way Th Parla cable reported th Argentine
drought unbroken, aud the situation there very ae
rlous The Mlcblaan October report referred to the
seriousness of tho situation lu that State The Hun
garlan crop estimate was reduced to e-0,000 000 bush.,
previous estimate hating teen U 7,000,000 hush . aud
last year'a crop MS 000,000 bush. Every ono bore In
tnlnd the fact that there waa to be a double holiday.
That lessened the trade and led to a general evening
up. The Incident In the pit w aa the liquidation of a
large local ca ping line. It.st taken, however, by
the best class of buyet. Ther haa been sums selling
to-day because th world'a visible made up by tha
TVade Jluflrfin anil the Liverpool Com Triide ewt
Stiows an tncreaae for SeptemlM-r of 32 00 1.000 bush ,
a larger Increase than for September last year. The
total, however, la 31,000,000 bush, under last year,
and 08 000,000 busb. under two years ago. Th
drought la not anything to affect the situation Imme
diately, but tt la unquestionably In a broad way
the moat Important existing fact Corn re
celpta were liberal, fi'lr) cam, with 0.i0 estl
mated for to-morro-v. There was no Improvement In
tho ahlpptng demand. There waa the llauhlatlon of
an Important long Hue Kervthlng helped toward
the weakneas. Clearances were 817,000 bush Cables
war asler. Corn la low priced, there la a ahnrt
crop, but the Immcdlat surroundings are discour
aging to th bulla. We do not think It It tha thing,
however, to sell nn the weak spota. Oats The cash
situation la aa etrong as the corn la weak. That doca
not seeru to amount to anything There la no simh-u
latlon. and nata simply follow the more a ll e grain."
