CiiiCAfln , 111. . Ajirll 27.-A sensational bulRo
of over II a barrel for pork occurred on
clmmrn hero to < lny. Tlioro wan a general
panic/among the shorts In that coininodlty.
The day was a wearing ono upon brokers and
commission men for , with Jutim * of from lOc
lo 20c per barrel between the fluctuations
now up and now down-the handling of orders
fretiui'iitly Impossi
with specified limits was
ble. It was a lively day In the pit from start
to finish , ixnd Armour's brokers , M. 0. Mitchell
and Wright combined In whooping things tii. |
Several day * ago September dellvory was
about * ! ? per barrel. Hhasgono steadily up
until this last rnl to of fl brought thu price
up nearly to 120. As thoru arc only 20.000
barrels of pork In Chicago , and according to
the rules of the Hoard of Trade , no pork can bo
manufactured between now and October 1 ,
which the speculative jmrchasorcoiild bo com
pelled to take delivery on , It will bo seen just
bow much of a cinch tholmllend has. It did
nil the buying this morning to furco prices tea
a high water mark and It was the only crowd
that had any to sell. No ono flared to sell ex
cept these who had the product In their pos
session , and nobody wanted to put their nose
under tin ; trip-hammer by selling short.
The talk of cliques Is gutting tiresome , but
prices seem to show that the clique has pit
Hold of the September market and It Is a clear
r.asn of como up to the captain's olllco and
tottle.
On the market people with a bearish ten
dency reason that a bull market In provisions
was enough and that other prices wuro Hound
to follow. Last year It extended fiom March
to September and the culmination was about
Oc higher than the prices for September. I liny
forgot the general bcurelty of ho * products
and that thu name reason that they give HtllT
prices to the product of two months airo would
bo equally applicable to the piesent Instance.
Now the sbort.sellers are probably wondering
how they got In on the wrong side of the mar
ket again , while the somewhat celebrated
Charles Wright Is storing their settlements
away In canvass Hacks. Wright gets credit for
engineering the corner , but it Is said r. I ) .
Armour has bad a linger In the ploundtho
trio of Cnduhys are supposed uNo to be Inter
ested. The market finished steady and strong ,
though ut some reaction. Compared with hist
night's llgutes the oloso showed a net gain of
OOc per lihl. for May and September pork ami
( I per bbl. for July , hard since yesterday Is
20c per 100 Ibs. higher and ribs are 15c up.
It was a case of whlpsaw In the wheat mar
ket. The opening was weaker at iic decline
for May , ami after He advance receded Sic ,
rallied Ic and closed steady. .Inly opened ' 4 < :
lower , declined' ' , < , but rallied Ic and cosed
with a gain of ! fc. September held within a
fair range and closed with a gain of from Uc
to ? c. . . ,
There was good llmildatlon In May and July
during the greater part of the morning , and
Ihero being no special support prices grad
ually declined , and May sold at a lower point
than at any previous time , being within V of
70c. There was good selling by the largest
traders through brokers openly. ' 1 ho sales
overbalanced theelTect of the bullish lallu-
ences until the crowd went short on the break ,
when the arrival of a lot of bad crop reports
from Kansao , one estimating the yield there
ntonly 28,000.000 bu. . started the ciowilto
buying , and prices advanced to the opening
figures , The nourish Influences were the five
selling of longs , tbe failure at Slonv Clly and
the light outside trad.e. The Dullish Inllii-
cnces were the absence of lain In Kansas and
In France , the cold weather and snow In the
northwest , and the bad crop reports from
Kanius.
In corn there was continued selling pressure
of May on the market , a good deal of which
was apparently for country holders. At the
decline there was -i better demand. Shippers ,
It was thought , were picking up the May and
on a'few outside' buying orders coming In , the
prleo reacted , going up from 'Je to 3.Jc. The
market ruled steady and closed with from } { c
.o lie gain. A good deal of changing Is still
going "on soiling May and hnylng July und
fc'eptomher the hitter month being In < | lillo
good request today. The most Important
business In outs was In the way of changing
from the near to the distant futures. Muy was
bought qultu freely by .thu shipping houses ,
and they also absorbed the round lots of No. 2
cafch , paying May prices for 50,000 bu. Prices
hud u lie rungo. the opening being ut the same
pi Ices as yesterday's close , and after a reduc
tion of from ° eC to ' .ic , rallied und closed at ! | c
lower for Muy , > c lower for Juno and un
changed for July und September.
Estimated receipts for tomorrow : Wheat ,
215 cars ; corn , 175 curs ! oats , l'J5 cars , hogs
18.000 head.

THURSDAY , April 27.
As compared with the first four day * ot lust
week , receipts show nn Increase of about 000
cnttio nnd 3,000 hogs , nhtlo the offerings ot
sheep Imvo fallen off something like GOO head.
For n Thursday the supply of cattle wns un
usually liberal , nearly thrco times us heavy ns
u week ago , but the quality of the offerings
was r&ther bulon Iho recent average. Con
flicting reports from Ohlengo , the ubscnco of
any shipping demand , and more than ample
supplies gave buyers for dressed beef houses
decidedly the best of the situation nnd on the
general run of beef steers prices ruled about u
illtno lower than Wednesday. On some of the
handy light steers that just suited the buyers'
fancy , steady or nearly steady prices were
reiillrod , whllu on the other hand lOc would
hardly cover thu decline on some of the rough
medium weight and heavy grades. ( Jood
1.100 to 1,400)1) ) . beeves solilat from 14.70 to
JO.O& , with fair to good 1,000 to 1,200-lb..steers
at from $4.10 to (1.70 nnd common under
weight stlllT nt from (4 to $4.30. Although
there was comparatively Httlo life to the trade
thu movement was continuous ami a good nnd
reasonably early clearance Was effected , the
feeling rather Improving toward thu close on
account of better eastern reports.
The dozen loads of cows und mixed stock on
sale hardly allowed buyers to fill their orders ,
und as u rule prices were firmer. This wus es
pecially true of the more desirable grades of
cows and heifers. Scarcely any tmprovcmmit
was noted In thu ordinary canning grades.
1'rlces ranged from $1.00 to $4.40 , with the
bulk of the decent butchers' stock at from * 3
to $3.75. ( iood fat bulls and stags were
stronger at from t3 to $4.10 , common to fair
rough sto.k about the sumu ut from $2 to $3.
The supply of culves wus umple to supply the
demands of the local trade , and prices were
very generally In the same old notches , from
{ 3.50 to I3.5O for common to choice stock.
There were quite u few fresh stock cattle In
the yards , but the quality was not such ms to
commend them to buyers. Hegulur dealers re

The friends of W. F. Weber , a clerk in
the register's ofllce , have been considerably
worried about the .young man since Satur
day. On that day Weber rode uway on his
bicycle and intended to bo gone only until
Monday. As he did not return to his desk
and nothing had been heard from him his
friends were naturally anxious.
Yesterday Mr. Webar's roommate re
ceived a telegram from the missing man
which had been sent- from Kichilold , Neb , ,
saying that ho would return the 1st of
May. This message allayed tlie fears of
friends , but they are still puzzled bec'Uiso
more definite Information had not been sent
them.

PATHETIC STORY CONNECTED THEREWITH
IXutnof the I.ato Jnniion ( I. Miller llrilrcil
by the Adopted Untightcr ot the Do-
ccimpd Her Clulin to the
I'urtune.
LINCOLN , Neb. , Aprils' . [ Special to THE
Bnn. ] In tlio probate court Judge Iuisliifr
Is engaged In hearing n case the history of
which rends lllto page from a romance.
The case Is ono wherein Mrs. Kvn I cwls.
\vlfo of tlio county cleric of Richardson
county , usks for the allowance of a claim of
$ l5.UOO ! ! from the estate of the Into Hitler
Jason Q. Miller , tit one tlmen resident of
Orcapolts , later of Lincoln and still later of
Pasadena , Gal. , wlioro ho died a year tiRO
leaving an estate worth ( ' .Till.OOO. The story
Is fully and graphically told hi a deposition
read this morning , which was tniulo by Mrs.
Ilayllss , wlfo of the pastor of Trinity Meth
odist church , Chicago.
On the 'JOth of Juno , 1800 , a mun giving his
name as Thomas Cavonger called at the
Homo for the Friendless , lU'JO Waoash uvo-
nue , Chicago , accompanied by two little
children , both irlrls. Ono was a bright Httlo
sprite , while the other was crippled. The
story ho told was a pathetic one. Three
months before he had loft Knglaud with his
wife and little cues for America. On ship
board the wife sickened , und a few weeks
uftrr they arrived in Chicago died. Ho
himself was ill and out of work and hogged
the homo to take the children until ho
recovered , promising to come back again.
They did so , but ho never returned. A search
showed that ho had died fricndlessand alone
In a hospital on Eighteenth street. Among
the friends of Mrs. Hayliss was Elder Mil
ler , then residing : U Oreapolis with his wlfo.
They were a childless couple , and Miller had
often begged the IJiiyllss family to give him
one of their girls , promising to make her his
heiress , but they refused. Ono Sunday ,
while In Chicago , he accompanied. Mrs. Hay-
liss to the home , where she held services ,
nnd was attracted by the little ono who sat
on the front scat smiling and pert. As the
children filed out , the child , who was known
us Eva Cavenger , ran from the ranks and
clasped her arms around the sturdy elder's
legs In an ecstasy ol' delight. It was a case
of love at first sight , and the child accom
panied Miller back to his homo.
He was an ardent believer in missionary
work in foreign lands , and the girl was edu
cated with the especial purpose of lilting
her for that work. At the State university
hero she met D. O. Lewis , and from that
tlmo forward nil desire for self-immolation
in distant lands vanished , and after a court
ship lasting until she graduated she married
Lewis against the protests of Miller. His
blessing was asked for. but instead ho told
her never lo darken his door , that ho had
shut her out of his heart forever.
When ho died it was found that the portion
tion ot Mho estate which would have been
Eva's was bequeathed to the Methodist mis
sions. It was at first supposed that ho had
adopted the girl , and she knew nothing to
the. contrary until after she had begun pro
ceedings to break the will , when it was dis
covered that there was no record to prove
that , the only paper bearing on the case on
file at the Chicago homo being the surrender
by the father to the institution. The deposi
tions read , however , tend to show that it
was on his agreement with the ofllcials of
the homo that she should bo treated as ono
of his own family that he obtained the little
one. The case will occupy several days , and
is probably the starting point of a lengthy
litigation. The bulk of Miller's property Is
lit California , but ho owns about fl,000 (
worth here.

LINCOLN , Neb. , April 27. To the Editor of
TUB IIKB : The alleged conversation be
tween Captain Hill , ex-Auditor Hi-nton and
myself In the state house on Tuesday , as re
ported In THE BEE of yesterday , in regard to
what the decision of the ' supreme court
would be on the question of jurisdiction , is
pure fiction. I had no such conversation. I
did not express any opinion us to what the
fiuding of the court would bo. I had not
heard any rumor in regard to It , and of
course , repeated no such rumor. I did not
see Mr , Dcnton during that day ; in fact I
have since learned ho was out of the city at
that time. I was in conversation with Cap
tain Hill when a man came up and spoke to
both of us and immediately passed on.
Not knowing him I asked Hill who he was.
He replied , "his name Is Howell ; THE HEU
man. " He did not hear a word of our con
versation.
I have no opinion as to how the court will
decide , preferring to wait for the decision. .
Now Unit the whole matter is beloro the
court it strikes me it would bo better for all
parties , newspapers Included , to leave it
there. Very respectfully ,
JOHN M. THAYMI.

PETITIONS FOR PAVING.
Tli Stipr < < inu < 'mirt Passes tip in n ( Jiii-n-
tl'in ortcn ItulKPil In Oinaliii ,
A recent decision of the Nebraska supreme
court will greatly affect this city so far as
public Improvements are concerned , and per
petuates the vener.iblo idea that the people
are bigger than those who servo them in
public oftlce. Tlio opinion was given by .Judge
Post , and was concurred in by the other
members of the bench.
Tlio case in question was Von Stccn vs.
the city of Beatrice , wherein tlic plaintiff
had enjoined the city from collecting a
special taking levied against his property to
pay the partial cost of grading , curbing and
paving a street In that city. The council
had ordered the work done , in face of the
fuel that property owners , representing
a majority of the feet frontngo of the abut
ting property , had protested against having
the improvements made. Tlio case dragged
its way through the district courts and found
its way to the supreme court.
The opinion of Judge 1'ost is quite lengthy
and is very comprehensive , covering in detail
all the questions raised. The court holds
that before any action can be taken for the
paving or curbing of any street n petition
must bo presented to the council represent
ing a majority of tbo feet frontage of the
abutting property. U is wholly unnecessary
for tlio property owners to proteot , as the
paving cannot bo done unless a majority of
the property owners petition for the same ,
and tbo council exceeds its jurisdiction when
it orders a street paved for which no peti
tion has been presented. The points in the
case are all covered by the Beatrice charter ,
which , in the iniinupon : the Improvement of
streets is tin * same as that of Omaha , and It
Is in tills manner that Omaha is affected by
the decision of the court.
The council 1ms been fully apprised of the
decision , tbo members Imvo taken the cue
and will proceed very cautiously in ordering
new paving. It is not thought that the de
cision will affect any improvements hereto-
fnrn made , where streets Imvo been paved
without the necessary petition having been
presented. City Attorney Council has
looked tlio matter up pretty thoroughly ,
and thinks that the only effect of the de
cision will bo to compel the council to not IJT
over hasty in ordering the paving of streets ,
and that it is necessary to have a petition
representing a majority of the feet frontage
of the abutting property to have the work
proceed or a protest representing a majority
to have the work slopped. Tlio decision
only affects paving and curbing and tlio re
moval of surplus earth from tlio street in
order to briug It to paving grade.

Xc.iv I'lr < > Alarm Ilnxc * .
Shortly after 11 o'clock yesterday a lire
alarm was turned In from Thirteenth and
Douglas streets 10 which the department
did not respond. Investigation disclosed the
fact that it was an experiment with the new
lire alarm box at that point. So far only a
few of them have been placed In the center
of the city. No key is required , but the
uerson desiring to turn In an alarm simply
rings the department up by turning the
crank on thu outside. The ring will bo
hoard for two blocks or more , so Unit any
patrolman's attention will bo .called to the
place immediately. It is claimed that H
takes less time to notify the flro uepartmeut
in this way.
