Loral Cash Grata Market.
Extreme dullness wss the feature of the
local cash grain situation. Wheat, how
ever, took a decided. Jump from Tueaday's
quotations, going- up 6 points. Very little
of It. however, was offered. Receipts
continue light and will do so until the end
of the month, when they may be some bet
ter. The lake tleup continues to deaden
tha cash situation In- Chicago, and as
Omsha'a shippers aent much of their stuff
to that market, tha effect Is felt here.
Receipts were 6 cara In and 9 cars out;

Holders Refrala front gelllna;, Thaa
Rellevlag the Market from tha
Pressnre of the Last
Few Days.
NEW YORK, May 18 The stock market
fell Into Idleness snd neglect again today.
So far aa there was any sentiment pre
valllng on the outlook for values, the
adherents of one view were counterbal
anced by those of the other. The conse
quence was a deadlock In which prices
were held nearly mollonleas. Holders re
frained from selling, thus relieving the
market from the presaure to which It has
been subjected recently, nut buyers were
entirely indisposed to follow prices ud
wards. The result was virtual stagnation
ionoon sent over nigner prices this morn
Ing. the extreme ease of money there
causing some strength for securities. The
response here was short lived and the re
sumption of gold engagements for exports
put an end to the advance. The ordering
of $2,500,000 In coin at the auhtreaaury for
shipment tomorrow snowed that the ex
haustion of the supply of gold bars left
tne snippers necessities still uncovered
and compelled the reaort to coin. There
was official expression of the opinion
baaed on Informal intimations from intend
ing shippers that probably $15,000,000 ad
ditional in gold coin will go out. The ag
gregate of the outgo on the present move
ment, beginning early In April and count
ing only actual engagements up to date,
haa reached over $f5.0no.000. The aulck
subscription for the Burlington bond lesua
was favorably regarded, but the break In
the new Japanese bonds In the curb to
within of the Issue price was an off
setting Influence.
Attention was attracted bv the export
demand for the new crop of wheat as
promising to better a condition which is
one of the depressing factors In the pres
ent situation. A reduction in the price of
copper was faintly reflected In the move
ment of Amalgamated. Unsuccessful er
forts to extend the strike of vesselmen
on the lakes made up a depressing factor.
rtauroaa earnings reportea were not im
portant, but offered no stimulation to value
United States Steel preferred ran off to
under last night s price on the publication
of the uncheerful report on the Iron out
look by The Iron Age. The closing tone
was steady, and the average of prlcea
was very close to that of last night. Bonds
were dull snd rather heavy. Total sales
par value $4,110,000. United States bonds
were unchanaed on call.

CA'fJ.x.E There were a tew mote cattle
on ale this morning than arrived yes
terday, which makea the receipt for the
three daya tills week considerably in ex-'
cessof the same uays of last week, -The
demand, however, from both local packers
ana shippers seemed to be in gooa snaps,
and as a result the market snowed very
little change from yesterday. The same
as usual, tne big end of the offerings con-'
Bistea ot corn-lea steers ana tne quality
was fairly good. While the market waa
not as active as It has been on some occa
sions, still buyers took hold fairly well,
and the general market was just about
teady witn yesterday. Nice, handy-weight
cattle sold very freely and in some cases
the prices paid may have been a ilttie
stronger. On the other hand, heavy cattle,
unless of good quality, and common stuff
of all welghta was rather neglected and
salesmen In some cases had hard work to
get what they considered steady prices.
The change in either direction, though, was
hardly enough to be worthy of mention.
The cow market was lairiy active ana
ust about steady Wltti yesterday. There
Old not seem to be any too many In sight
to meet the reqjlrements of the trade, and
as a result everything at all desirable was
Boon disposed of. Canners, though, were
not wanted apparently by anyone, and In
fact It was more of a question of finding a
buyer than one of price. That class of
cows, though, has not been selling to very
good advantage for some little time.
Buns, if 01 gooa quality ana not too
heavy, sold freely at fully steady prices.
Veal calves brought just about the same
money they have all the week.
Offerings of Blockers and feeders were
again limited and anything at all desirable
Bold at good strong prices. Quite a few
cattle are now selling from $4 to $4.25, with
some sales as high as $4.30. The demand
for common stuff, though. Is very limited.
The extreme ciose or tne rat came mar
ket was a little slow and weak, as packers
seemed to be pretty well filled up and
made use of the opportunity to buy the
late rattle for a little less money. Repre
sentative sales:

HOGS There was risrtit close to a reeord-
breuking run of hogs here today, the esti
mated receipta being 20,6t) head The rec
oad is 20.6X4 head, received on July 31, 1894.
Considering th enormous number on sale
the market fere was quite satisfactory. As
compared with yesterday's general market
the decline amounted to a big dime. It was
rather late tefore much business was trans
acted, as buyers and sellers were slow In
getting together on terms. In fact the mar
ket was not very active at any time, so tne
morning was well advanced before even the
Duik waa disposed or. Buyers were rattier
flaurlna on another hi a- run for tomorrow.
so of course they were very bearish nntl did
not want the hogs unless they could get
them at their own price. The bulk of all
the good weight hogs went from $4-60 to
$4.56, with choice loads going from $4.65 to
$4 60 and prime hogs as high as $4.65. The
light and commoner loads went from $4.50
down.
The last end of the market was slow and
weak. There seemed to be more hogs on
sale than packers needed and as a result
salesmen had a rather hard time to dispose
of the late arrivals and also of the com
mon nnd light stufT. There, were so many
good hogs on sale that packers discrim
inated against the common stuff more than
usual. Representative sales:

fcMEKP There was n
limited
upply
of
sheep In sight this morning, and as all the
buyers needed a few cars the market ruled
ialrly active and iust about steady. There
were some clipped lambs on sle good
enough to bring $5.65, but aside from those
the quality was only fair. Some clipped
wethers and yearlings sold for $4.75 and
$4.85. Clipped ewes sold up to $4.66.
Everything at all desirable was sold at an
early hour, but some of the commoner
kinds were neglected and hard to dispose
of, but still they finally sold at about the
same prices as have been paid of late for
that clnsa of offerings.
Quotations for clipped stock: Oood to
choice lambs, 85.50if(0.b5; fair to good lambs,
$5.005.50; good to choice wooled lambs,

THE CRACKERJACK OF FLYERS
A Train that Ran So Fnat It Sncked
t'p Water nnd Flab na It
Crossed Trestles.
They had been speaking of fsst runs on
railroads. 'That reminds me of a run
we made soma ttmo ago on a train which
came In from a point on the eoaat," said
the man who wanted to add seat to the
conversation, "and It waa about the fleet
est trip I ever had on a railroad. Tha train
was behind time about an hour, and I
think the engineer made an effort to catch
up between the city and a point not so
very .far, out on the coast. At any rste,
It looked very much like It to me. We shot
through! the air like an arrow. Sometimes
it would seem to me that we had left tha
track altogether. That clicking peculiar
to railroad trains could not be heard.'
About all we could hear at times would
be the whizzing of the wind aa It split
by the windows. Across bayous and
limugh marshes we rushed like mad.
When we reached the rlgolets the most
remarkable thing I ever saw took plare.
The train vil traveling so fast It sucked
the water up behind It as It rushed actosi
the trestle, and I could hear tha flshea
groan as we flew over thla neck of the
gulf. Most remarkable thing I ever raw
In the way of fast runs." And he lapsed
Inta silence. "I'm glad you reminded' me
of that run," sold another member of the
group. "I had fortotten tho Incident. I
can vouch for all you any, for I was on the
back end of the last coach," and the water
which was sucked in behind the train bv
the vacuum almost washed me overboard,
but I held on all right, and when we had
made the crossing and the waters had re
ceded I picked up on the platform of the
rear coach the finest bunch of flsh I ever
saw. They were no doubt the tlsh you
heard groaning." New Orleans Tlmea
