Wheat , after auou nrtccn'minutes of weakness nt Hie start , be came firm today , and end > t1 with a gain o ' , c per lui. After a month's steady liquid ntlon of May wheat , It Is to ho presume ) that the last bushel has been sold out wlilcl the holders were not prepared to take am pay for If tendered tomorrow. While mane ; la foclriK pressed upon carriers of wheat b ; leaders at 314 per cent , It does not seen likely that the owners of the property \\ll drop It at present prices , unless It should b demonstrated later In the season that li nplto of drouth , frost and diminished acrcagi anotlior phcnomlnally largo crop la to bi the result of thli year's harvest. Corn wai dull , and closed 1-lCo lower for July , am \'ta lower for May. In the oats market tin shorts In May became aware that the ma nlpulatorn were not quite done with them , a : Is Indicated by an advance of Ic per bushe from % c dccllno which occurred at tin opening. Provisions closed strong , aftci weakness at the start. An Increase of 2/l9C'000 lm > of wheat or ocean passage , favorable woathcr In at l as two ot the western wheat growing Ktati-B- Knnsns and Nebraska and dull and weal foreign markets , caused a dull opening 01 the wheat at % c decline. The p.iino In fluences caused a further depression of U < for May and ! 6c for July. A recovery sioi followed , when It was found that the demand for May wheat was more pressing than the order to sell. The New York clearances wcro liberal , and helpoj to confirm the strong feeling which had sprung up. The Improve ment continued until July reached from G0c to CO lie. The spread between May and J l > fluctuated Irregularly between 2c and 2'4c For an hour before the close , the price kepi within 1-lCc of 60Uc for July , and May nan , during the same time , at a discount of from lie lo a c. Corn was very dull until after the visible supply statement ga\e evidence of a con siderable decrease In stocks during last week. After that had been confirmed , the feeling became easier again , but In the meantime an early decline of He per bushel In May , and % c In July , had been nearly nil recovered. The principal business of the day was In the way of changing May con tracts over to July. Oats started somewhat easier , In sympathy with wheat and corn , and continued to fol low In the wake of those markets during the greater part of the session. The de mand was quite good , but there was little for sale. Some strength was developed , and May sold from 32c , the opening price , to 33Vic. Speculative prices In the provision pit opened lower than Saturday's closing prices , owing to the receipts of hogs being 6,000 over the estimates. The weakness gave place to steadiness , and that to strength , when It was found that Swfft & Co , who appeared willing to take all the offerings at the opening prices , continued to bid for stuff oven after the market had advanced ma terially. Trade was extremely dull aftci the first hour of the session , but the flrm- npis continued. Usllmated receipts'Tuesday Wheat , 105 cars ; corn , G20 cars ; oats , 130 cars ; hoes 18.000 head.

R- . MONDAY , April 30. The week opens'and the month of Apr ends with a light run ot stock. Only C loads of cattle wcro received , a meaner ru at any time , hut particularly so for a Moil dgy. The offerings were almost cntlrel steers ot only medium quality. Lower in.ii kets east inado the outlook here rather dl ; couraglng , but the \cry limited suppl served to sustain values , although the dc maud was far from brisk from any sourct In general prices averaged up about stead ) fully steady on the light handy steers an slow on the hctvlcr grades , although n lower than the close of last week. Tlicr was very little life or activity to the trad at any time , but the meager offerings wer about nil disposed of during the forenoon. Offerings of cow stuff wcro almost to small to afford a test of the tone of tli market. Only five or six loads were re celved , and they sold readily ut prices full as good as those prevailing at the close o last week. Calves were In moderate suppl and demand and barely steady , and liter was no particular change to the market fo rough stock generally. The stocker and feeder market was rathe quiet. Offerings , both fresh and stale , wer rathef limited and the country domain lacked consldeiable ot being as active a toward the close of last week. Prices , how ever , were for the most part firmly held Good to choice feeders are quoted at fron J3.2G to $3 83 , fair to good at $3 to ? 3 2 ! and lighter , commoner grades at from $ down.

Foward the close the market weakened still further and late trading was mostly at 85 , kvlth a few odd sales at under that figure. Die market was rather dull and dragging : hroughout , but about everything finally sold. Dn Saturday the hogs went mostly at $5.05 ind $5.10 and on last Monday trading was , 'e'ry largely at $5.10 and $5.15.

Under the viaduct the men scpiniteil , Trautman continuing south and Jones run- nliiK up Tenth street. In front of the Windsor - ' ser hotel sat a number of gentleman unit among them Mr. William Franltlo , who sprang out and grabbed the fleeing mail about the waist just as ho reached for IiU revolver. Tlio man pioved to bo quite an athlete nnd was giving Mr. Franklo soma very rough exoiclco when others ran to hit * assistance. The man was then held tilt thu arrival of Ofllcer Hcclan , who placed him under arrest. Mr. Netrnci , a pawnbroker at 618 South !

He loolieil nl the rings and then at the men , and concluded lie would not tiikei the risk of purchasing them , giving as ill reason ho had a quantity of these rlngii and did not ileslro any more. Tha men' ' said nothing and started to Icavo the store ; when one of them asked Mr , Netzncr whcru the nearest saloon was. Ho was told ami both men wcro seen to go In the saloon,1 take a drink and go out again They went Into Mi. Nct/ncr's shop again ami asked to see BOIIIO revolvers.

Jones said ho liked them very much and handed In pay ment what purported to ha a JfiOO bill , Mr. Nul/iier'H eyes opened widely as ho saw the money and ho icmarkcd that ho could not change it. Then ho noticed that the llgnrea on the hill wcro In the wrong place , and alto- * gcther It had u very suspicious appearance.

They gave the alarm and ran out the front door after the inon. Their shouts attracted passcrsby , and this Is howc ono of the men was captured , the other es caping for the tlmo.
