being plenty of May offered at the start at
The late advices from Argentine
su< h us to east some doubt
on the report thai there had been any con
siderable damage In Argentine, and this was
confirmed by the setback th« market received
at Liverpool. The result was that there was
a good deal of liquidation on the part of
who loaded up on yesterday's bulge.
3 were again discouragingly heavy
In comparison with those of tlie year before,
and caused furthi r weakm ss in the course
of the forenoon. Host that might
harm a much more important crop than that
gentine wa lowed in the re
of the local vice bureau, and
that fact gave the market the Btrength it
showed occasionally.
Chicago receipts were 136 cars by rail and
• bu by lake; the latter No. 1 northern
from Duluth. It was estimated that
contract stocks wen' increased about 209,000
bu today. Minneapolis and Duluth receipts
wore 97t) cars, against 1,037 a week ago.
Wesh m primary markets reported in all
000 bu, against 520,000 bu the year be
fore.' Export clearances for the day from
Atlantic and gulf ports were equal to 455.000
bu. Yesterday's enormous export business
at the seaboard was fully confirmed, New
York supplying the details today o£ about
0 bu. Closing cablegrams reported
Liverpool steady at Id decline for the day.
Paris was 20 centimes higher for nearby
flour and 5 centimes higher for March-April,
15 centimes higher for November wheat and
aged for remote deliveries.
The market became quite strong in the
last half hour. The milling demand for wheat
improved considerably, aud caused an ad
vance of from ;:-i le in low grades here, and
Minneapolis reported a similar state of af
tuirs With regard to higher prices for low
grades. Tne port of Odessa, or at least
the rivers down which the supplies of wheat
are sent to that place, were reported closed
by ice. Rumors that trouble had broken
out again between Greece and Turkey were
circulated ou the floor, and also had con
siderable effect Many of the early sellers
coveted on the advance. The closing was
firm at 91% c.
Corn was weak early, but closed strong.
The government crop report was the early
influence, making the crop 1,911,000,000 bu.
This was a considerable increase over last
mouths estimate. The figures were doubled
but had their effect nevertheless. The sell
ing early was by yesterday's buyers, shorts
renewing lines they had covered. The de
mand for cash corn for shipment that de
veloped turned the market strong and caused
li recovery of ail the decline. Seaboard clear
ances we're 555,000 bu. May ranged from
-losing at the latter figure. Oats
were easy during the morning, following
wheat and corn. When these markets ad
vanced oats also displayed a firmer tendency.
There was a large shipping business, which
helped strengthen the market. Quite free
.svlliug followed, but prices were well main
tained. Export business here amounted to
200,000 bu. May ranged from 22 to 21% c, and
closed unchanged at 22c.
Provisions were very dull again, and fluc
tuations were extremely narrow. The mar
ket was helped at the opening by better
prices at the yards and later by the up turn
in grain pits. No features of interest de
veloped. At the close. January pork was 5c
higher at $8.40@8.42%; January lard, 7%c
higher at $4.35@4.37%, and January ribs 2%
@5c higher at J4.37%@4.40. Estimated re

MINNEAPOLIS GRAIN.
_
MINNEAPOLIS. Nov. 11.— A shrinkage in
values was the predominating features early
■ day in the local wheat market from the
opening up to mid-session. This was due
to an apathetic and circumscribed trade
to anything else, because whatever was
bearish In the news was aggravated by the
nulel prevailing. The ready writers of the
imr.au were a little too previous yes
terday to suit. Today they were forced to un
do what they did yesterday, but they have
clone it in a mild way. About 11:30 a, m. the
market showed a little sign of strength on a
good export trade done at the seaboard. Clear
ances for the day aggregated 455.000 bu of
wheat and flour.
December wheat opened at SSc. against 88-%
©BS%e yesterday- close, advanced to 88V4C,de
clined to 87% c firme-d u.p to 88% cby 11:35,
and by noon held at 88% c. May wheat opened
nt S7*V, against 88% c yesterday, sold at S7"' 8
©87% c, advanced to 87% c, droped to 87% c,
Kiilncd l-16c, declined to 87% c, firmed up to
\l\*y.: by 11:35, and by noon held at 87% c.
The cash wheat market was active today,
with a good demand for all grades. No. 1
northern sold mostly at l%c over December,
and No. 2 at 2@2%c under December. Lower
grades sold a little better than yesterday.
Receipts here were 50 cars and 77 cars shipped
out.
During the noon hour the December wheat
future began to "feel its oats" and advanced
rapidly, leaving the May future in the rear.
This action bears, out the predictions of a day |
or two ago.December wheat is decidedly an |
uninteresting future, and if half be true a
lively time may be expected. November wheat
closed at 90% c; December at 89% c and May at
SB%©BS%e.

CONTRACT GRADE.
MILWAUKEE, Wis.. Nov. 11.— At the spe
cial meeting of the beard of directors of tho
chamber of commerce held today, it was de
cided to recommend that No. 1 northern
wheat or higher grades shall be the contract
grade from date of satisfaction until Aug. la,
1898. This Is a compromise made for the pur
pose of a test, and was adopted by the unan
imous vote of the ten directors present. At
a former meeting it was voted to make the
contract grade No. 1 northern permanently,
or until the rule should be repealed. Later
it was found the action of the board was
illegal, for the reason that the rule had not
recejved a two-thirds vote of all the directors.

MINNEAPOLIS MARKET.
MINNEAPOLIS, Nov. 11.— Butter ruled firm

were made on change at a fraction less than

i will pay quotations without hesitation. The
j call for firsts and seconds is fair. Thirds
I are going largely into packing stock. Dairy
j extras are In big demand, with receipts not
; equal to the demand. Firsts and seconds are
j in occasional request. Ladles are firm an.d
: wanted. Fresh sweet packing stock suitable
1 for ladling is strong and in big dim. md at
I outside quotations. Strictly fresh eggs took
; a price jump this morning to 15%@16c, against
! a quotation yesterday of 15c flat. Colder
j weather and light receipts of this grade is
the main reason. Eggs which have been he'd
back in the country for some time are rather
slow. Live hens and springs are %c higher.
Receipts are falling off ec-nside.-ably. Tur

STATE'S ATTORNEY ROBBED.
Evidence Aj-.alu.st a Prisoner Pur
loined in Open Court. -
CHARLESTON, 111., Nov. 11.— The
sensational case of Attorney Alfred
C. Ficklin was brought to a dramatic
close this afternoon by his being sent
to the insane asylum. Ficklin is Jhe
son of the late Orlando B. Ficklin,
who married a sister of Alfred C. Col
quitt, late governor of Georgia. Fick
lin, the elder, was well known all over
the West. He fas .an intimate friend
of both Lincoln; and Dougl as, and was
in congress with them, as the Lincoln
! Douglas debate? will show. Among
j other thngs, Alfred; acted as broker
I for some rich .people, lending their
j money out and paying the interest as I
it became due. Affier a long time, it
was learned, it -is said, by the merest
accident, that the notes were forgeries.
The grand jury, found fifteen indict
ments against Ficklin, and the cases j
came to trial this week. The first case
was proved clearly, but, by a blunder j
of the state's attorney in copying the
j indictment, in which; a note was mis
i described. Judge Henry Van Seller, of
i Paris, ordered the jury to send in a
J verdict of acqujttal, which was done.
1 The next case was called, and, while
i it was in progress, the state's attor-
I ney made the astounding statement i
j that he had been robbed in open court, j
and all the forged notes stolen. There |
was a dramatic scene enacted, but no j
one was able to find the notes, and
the case on trial went the way of the '
first. Then, with eleven indictments I
left, the state's attorney obtained a !
continuance until the January term of '•
court, in order to try and find the j
notes. A. C. Ficklin was then tried
for insanity and taken to the Kankakee j
asylum. I

GAINED.

COURSE OF PRICES DOWNWARD
DURING THE REST OF
THE DAY.
LONDON SELLING QUITE A FACTOR.
yet Declines of a Point or Over in
a Majority of the Standard
Shares.
NEW YORK. Nov. 11.— Stocks proved un
able to hold the gains of yesterday, and
prices today have declined to an extent
which practically wipes out all of yesterday's
advance, net declines extending to a point or
over In largo number of standard active
shares. The decline of Americau securities In
London before the opening here caused weak
ness at the outset, and London was quite an
active seller in this market all day. After
quite a strenuous resistance to the decline,
just after the opening, the market gave
way and with the exception of periods of
dullness and steadiness, the course of prices
was downward during the remainder of the
day. The London selling was quite a factor
in the decline and tho revised estimate of
yesterday's decision concerning tho anti
trust law by tho appellate division of the
supreme court at Albany was also a de
pressing influence. Apparently the convic
tion in Wall street was that the law had
been declared unconstitutional, and a realiza
tion that the incidental opinion expressed iv
the decision rather pointed toward uphold
ing its validity materially weakened prices.
This weakness was especially manifest" In
the coalers aud the industrial specialties, and
had something to do with the sharp decline
In Sugar, which at the extreme amounted
to 5 points. Sugar was, moreover, weakened
by special considerations, one of which was
the probability that the control of the Ha
waiian crop was about to pass to its com
petitors. There was also some apprehension
as to the final decision of the government
in the question of countervailing duties on
Dutch refined sugars, a question which is
the subject of diplomatic negotiations. Tho
dealings ia this stock were largo and the
fluctuations in its prices affected the mar
ket by sympathy quite strongly. Consolidated
Gas also suffered one of its characteristic
slumps of 0% points to 90. Sugar touched a
price today fully a point lower than its pre
vious low point on the present movemeut,
but it rallied quite strongly a point in the
closing transactions. People's Gas, the suc
cessor company to Chicago Gas, was mark
edly heavy throughout the day and closed
with a net decline of nearly 2%. The South
westerns were weak, notwithstanding very
favorable showing of earnings for the first
week in November. That for Missouri Pa
cific showed an increase of $1C6,000 over tho
corresponding period of last year, and Kan
sas Pacific an Increase of nearly $80,000.
Chesapeake & Ohio was the only railroad to
report a decrease for the first week, which
amounted to $14,243. The railway list was
weak throughout and net losses of a point
or upward are shown all through tho ac
tive list. The dealings in Sugar were al
most one-fourth of the total.
There was a failing off in activity In the
bend market, and prices declined in the lat
ter part of the day. Total sales, $1,410,000. U.
S. fours registered and the new fours coup,
rose % bid, and the new fours registered

LINCOLN'S DAUGHTER ELOPES.
Course of True Love Would Aot He
Diverted.
CHICAGO, Nov. 11.— Miss Jessie Lin
coln, granddaughter of the martyred
president, und only unmarried daugh
ter of Hon. Robert T. Lincoln, ex
minister to England, eloped last night
with Warren Beckwith, of .Mount
Pleasant, 10. They went to Milwau
kee, V, here they were married. Last
week Miss Lincoln arrived suddenly
in Chicago from Mount Pleasant, 10.,
where it was expected she would spend
the winter in company with her
mother at the home of the latter's
lather, ex-Senator Harlan, of lowa.
Miss Lincoln is a bright and beauti
ful girl of about twenty-one years of
age. Among her most intimate friends
at Mount Pleasant was Warren Beck
with, whom she has known from her
earliest years. Mr. Beckwith is the
son of a wealthy business man of the
lowa town. Y^ung Beckwith has been
very attentive to Miss Lincoln, and
that she reciprocated his devotion was
remarked. That the young couple were
secretly engaged was known only to
their intimates.
Before opportunity came to consult
Lincoln here it was made very mani
fest to the young man that his suit
would not be accepted by the family
of the object of his devotions. After
deliberating over this unfortunate sit
uation for a long time the young peo
ple decided upon a secret marriage.
The day was set for the latter part of
last week. A couple of young friends
were taken Into the confidence of the
couple and the preliminaries were ar
ranged, but an indiscreet remark gave
the relatives of the young woman an
inkling of the affair. The bride to be
was immediately whisked off to Chi
cago. Young Beckwith followed his
lady love to Chicago, resulting in the
elopement.
When the rumors of the elopement
first became circulated, even Mr. Lin
coln did not give them credence. At
midnight, however, he confessed that
his daughter had just arrived at the
house from a hurried trip to Milwau
kee, where she was married to Mr.
Beckwith. The young husband did not
accompany hi 3 wife to her home, but
stayed the night at a hotel. It is
