6 THE COMMERCIAL RECORD. On the Chicago Board of Trade There Was a Better Feeling at the Start. Kore Outside Orders Were Received, But the Business Was Only Fair. Transactions in the Financial Circles of Wall Street—The General Quotations. Special to the Globe. Chicago, Sept I.—The prospects are get ting better for wheat. The last decided feature, the California corner, has become a thing of the past. Advices are that the mill ers have taken large blocks of the California holdings, cable advices are encouraging, and Liverpool quotes spot wheat Id higher and futures firm. This was delivery day on 'change, and the deliveries were large for wheat and provisions and light for corn. It was estimated that about 1,000,000 bu of wheat passed around to-day. Armour took about all the ribs. Trading began at 10:30 to-day with better feeling and more activity than was witnessed during August. Prices were generally higher. October wheat sold at70%@70%c: October corn at 41>&@41%c; May at 45*4@45%c. Oats sold at 30' iC for May delivery. Provisions were firmer, with October ribs at $9.07 and Octo ber lard at $(">. IT';. Brokers who telegraphed their New York correspondents for news of the Baltimore & Ohio railroad deal reported to have been made in London, were answered: "We cannot confirm reports, as parties in In terest refuse to talk. The sale of the Balti more & Ohio railroad is doubted here." The activity and firmness which marked the opening of the market to-day were pretty well sustained until the close. October wheat, after slight reactions from 7(>sic ad vanced before noon to Tie. with considera ble excitement in the pit. After reaching this point it again firmed up to 71 Vsc shortly before the close of the morning session. May wheat sold above SOc for the first time in many days. THE ROUTINE RETORT. Chicago. Sept. 1. —Trading began to-day with a better feeling and more activity than was witnessed during August. Cable ad vires were encouraging, and it was said that the millers have taken large blocks of the California holdings. A large portion of the business to-day was the buying on September and selling November and* December wheat against the purchases at the current differ ences. There were more outside orders re ceived, but still the business was only fair. Stocks of wheat here are considerably smaller than at this time last year, ami the visible supply, which is likely "to show an other decrease in Monday's statement, will be about 12,000.000 bu less than last year. On the whole the situation-through out the day was again active and prices consequently showed some improve ment. Export clearings from three ports were again large, footing up 503,000 lm of wheat. Deliveries of wheat on monthly set tlements to-day were 750,000 bu. October wheat opened %c. better at 70&fec, sold at once up to 70Sic, and, after reacting to 70%e, moved up to 71c, causing much animation among the bulls. On the afternoon board, the sessions of which were resumed to-day, October closed at 71's@71i4c December wheat sold from 73*4 cup to74"'2C and closed on the afternoon board at 74%©74V»c Corn was governed entirely by local influences to day. The deliveries on September were re ported as being exceedingly light, and thus treated an active demand from ''shorts'' for that future, which advanced lc from the opening. October sympathized with Sep tember and advanced tec, while May failed to respond to some to some extent. There was an active market from the open ing to the closing, although there were few outside orders and the volume of business was not unusually large. October corn opened at 41 %c and closed at 42*fcc, May opened at 45kc and closed at 45V2C The volume of business done in oats was much more than usual, and on the start oats made a slight spurt in better prices in sympathy with wheat and corn, but became tame and sold lower at the close. September sold from 24*fecto 24% c and closed at 24*4@24*i»c, October sold at 25*4'a25%c and clsoed at 25*45.25* 7rsc, May sold at 30. and closed at that price. The deliveries of provisions on September contracts were fair—about 10,000 tierces of lard and 1,7u0.000 lbs short ribs. There was less pressure to sell, but the de mand from short appeared sufficient to cause an appreciation of 2V2C on lard and 2"4!§>7 l&c on short ribs. September and October show ing the greatest gain. The prices were small and closing sales were 'at outside figures. Lard sold at 80.40 for September and Jan uary, closing at §0.55: short ribs, §5<5.5.15 for September and SO for January; pork, 512.40f/12.-15 January. The shipping de mand was less urgent for meats, but liberal for lard. THE QUOTATIONS. Chicago, Sept.

I.— better feeling was observable on 'change to-day, and out side reports showed that it was uot confined to one or two markets, but was quite general. Liverpool reported much firmer feeling, with an upward tendency in prices, and the Amer ican markets quickly responded to the for-" eign advance. The situation is coming to be generally recognized as a good • one and in dicative of better things after the effects of the clique crashes are wholly removed from Die market. The wheat movement again showed up in good form for believers in better prices. The receipts at primary points were: small and clearances very large, amounting to 505,000 bushels: at three points. Here a belter feeling was evidently 111 the higher prices and more active trading. The sales in the aggregate were, not -large,. but were divided into more trades, showing an increase In the number of traders. The advance in prices if continued, and to-day's feeling is that it will be for a time at least, which will surely. improve business here. The close was firm. Cash wheat.

The advance begun yesterday in the stock market made further progress to-day and no reaction worthy of the.name occurred during the entire day. At the same time the dealings lacked the excitement and the gains were more steady than those of yesterday. All the prominent operators talked bullish and backed their talk by buying orders, but the great bulk of the purchases Were lo cover shorts. The announcement ctf tie reduction in cable rates by the Commercial company caused a halt in the advance aPd the bears bid up money to 8 per cent, in the hope of bringing about a deciiue which was suc cessful in Western Union but had little or no effect upon the remainder. The Grangers, especially Northwestern and Northern Pacific preferred, were most prom inent early in the day, but Missouri Pacific, Western Union and St. Pat* later. A few of the specialties also made marked advances during the day. The few sales by London encouraged the bears to resist the general current, but . the attempt was given up later in the day, and the market became buoyant toward the close. The opening was gen erally strong, most stocks show ing advances over yesterday's final prices of from %©% per cent. There was an active business, but it was confined mostly to six or eight favorite stocks, while the others were rather quiet. There was some hesitation at the opening, but prices soon began to advance under the lead of Northwestern, which was joined by St. Paul and . Northern Pacific pre ferred toward noon. After that time the cable reductions had the effect of check ing the buying, and the market became dull and the fractional losses were sustained. The last hour, however, saw a complete rally and all the leading stocks moved .up sharply on a largely increased busiuess and the close was active and strong at the best figures reached.

Or Black Leprosy, la a disease which Is con sidered incurable, but it lias yielded to the cura tive properties of Swift's Specific— known all over the world as S. S. S. Mrs. Bailey, of West Somerville, Mass., near Boston, was attacked several years ago with this hideous black erup tion, and was treated by the best medical talent, who could only say that the disease was a species of V , -LEPROSY — and consequently IneuraMe. It Is Impossible to describe her sufferings. Her body from the crown or her head to the soles of her feet was a mass of decay, masses of flesh rotting off and leaving great cavities. Her fingers festered and three or four nails dropped off at one time. Her limbs contracted by the fearful ulceration, and for several years she did not leave her bed. Her weight was reduced from 125 to 60 lbs. Perhaps some faint Idea of her condition can be gleaned from the fact that three pounds of Cosmollne or ointment were used per week In dressing her sores Finally the physicians acknowledged their defeat by this Black Wolf, and commended the sufferer to her all-wise Creator. Her husband hearing wonderful reports of the use or Swift's Specific (S. S. a), prevailed on her to try it a? a last resort. She began Its use under protest, but soon found that her system was being relieved of the poison, as the sores assumed a red and healthy color, as though the blood was be coming pure and active. Mrs. Ballet continued ties. S. S. until last February; every sore was healed ; she discarded chair and crutches, aud was for the first time in twelve years a well . woman. Her husband, Mr. C. A. Bailey, is In business at IT*** Blackatone Street, Boston, and will take pleasure in giving the details of this wonderful cure. Send to us for Treatise on Blood and Skin Diseases, mailed free.
