ISpcclnl Telegram to the DKK. ] Wheat was down very early this morning to SOJ o for May. That was whcru the clique houses stopped It the other day , nnd this Is the llgtuo It Is said Cincinnati people have sot tip as the limit of conces sions they nro willing to make to the bears. Hotar | the conduct of the market hns borne out the gossip. When 80 , c has been reached traders havu apparently butted themselves up against the wall and sales of short wheat simply went Into soinu enormous maw that did not Beein to be affected by the * quantity. May wheat touched tOXc to-day Just ns It hns done heretofore. From M c May whe.it got back to HJ c. The limit was dllllcult to break through to-dny , as It was yesterday , eras as It was Tuesday or on any of thn other week days , when bO > fc has been the low point for the May option. Yesterday It looked as If llutchlnson was thu only otic who defended the point. Tuesday It was plainly the Cincinnati crowd , but whether It Is Cincinnati , or California , or llutchinson , or ( somebody rise , the market 1ms been heretotoie BOcll protected at this figure that the crowd Is now certain that there Is method in It. Jfoncotho liguro was broken through the stability of the wheat clique would boon bo put to the teht. To-dny , after hanging at BO dibO.Vc until noon , George C. Walker & Co. , ciedltcd with boluc one ot the clique ) houses , bought about Mxt.ooo bushels of wheat That put the May option to bOJ c , hot qilltc , however , to the regular figure , elc. There are reports here now which are reiter ating the tale of dnuiiige to winter wheat fioin the ( try Mnich. C. J. Ker.slmw had a message from Kansas City which said that In Missouri and Kansas wheat was unques tionably suffcilng severely Irom the unex ampled dryness of the montli. Corn still drags along near U9c for May. The receipts were a good deal less to-day than expected , but the fulling elf was Immediately followed by an explanation that them was a bieak down on the Bmllnnton road which had thrown Its corn out of the calculation for to-day. The estimates for to-morrow , how ever , show that there will bo big receipts Saturday , and of course heavy receipts are looked for Monday and Tuesday. In proVisions - Visions there was not anything to gossip about Late reports from New York said twenty four boat loads of wheat had been worked there for export. This did not revive tin market , however , and at the 2:30 : o'clock rlosn the May option was bO filbO c. May corn closed steady at 8'c , May ribs a SsT.02,1. ; . May lard at 87.35.

The btoqk market showed some Improvement to-dny both In values nnd In volume of business. The talk continued bullish last night and the opening -was strong at about yesterday's late.n figures. There was no particular feature to note. Northwpstern-howed | continued strength.ad- vanclng moderately during the forenoon , nnd St. Paul also showing some Improvement. Lackawanna was quite active , sco-sawlng within a range of half a point. Richmond Terminal sold up a little , but lost the im provement subsequently. Pacific Mall was quiet and eased off a trillo after the opening. .London houses In Now York say that In view of very cheap rates for money on the other side foreigner * will bo sure to buy stock beru presently. Tlicro was Homo bull talk current to-day on I > .islBa Mall , but not much movement. Pullman was attracting some at tention , and at ono time sold Itf points higher than last night's clo e. One of Van- dcrbllt's brokers was a buypr and It was said there had boon good buying for three days. ( iould said yesterday that the only possibility ot any Hurry In the money market would arise from the Baltimore & Ohio deal , If con- mummied , as It would take more money out of the street than the banks could spare at . this time. It was odlclally announced that the Interest on Kea'llng ' improvement ( Vs , duo In April , would not bo paid. The withdrawal on yesterday by the Urand Trunk of both Its freight and pvteuger departments from the Central association rather than accept the Hew schedule of ewt-bouud rtilea was one oi the topic * of Internal to d y. It It believed that Mmway will be found to control Uic Canadian fouls so they will not profit by the Inter-state law at the expense of their Ameri can competitor * . Yesterday's estimate on the earnings of the St. J.ouls & San Fran cisco road for the third week In March \\ns verified to-day , the figures showing an in crease ot 525,500. The earnings of the Mis souri 1'aclfic for January , February and March , this montli being pattly estimated , show an Increase of 53,000,000 over tha same quarter last > car , The sales to noon were 107,640 shares. Kakc Shore sold ofT about M per cent during the day , said to be partially due to the action of the Grand Trunk In Its withdrawal. The approximate statement for the quarter ending the 31st lust , with March partly estimated , shows a net Increase In earnings of SllS.StO and n surplus Incrcnsoof 8132,000. Lacknwanna declared Its quarterly dividend of 1J { per cent and a submitted statement to the directors shows this was more than usunl. In an Interview Gould said ho was a pronounced bull on the market on all good stocks In general , and on Western Union nnd Missouri 1'nclllc < n particular. The Intter , he said , would mnkc 8:00,000 this year over and above fixed charges , dividend : ) , etc. St Paul aud Northwestein cased oil a little from the highest tiiMirc * , but the market In the afternoon showed but little change.

BuiTKit Butter has been scarce all the week. Even the peeler grades are not com ing In such abundance as a xveek or two ago. There Is an active demand for choice butter nnd all such sells quickly on arrival. The market is accordingly stronger than last week. Shippers must bear In mind that the quotations for choice butter are tor butter that Is strictly choice and sweet. A little more care In making and handling the but ter would Increase Its value from 2c to 5e per Ib and It would sell more roadllv and at bet ter prices.

Kuos The egg market has been very steady during the past week. The market Is In about the same- condition as a week ago. The receipts have averaged very heavy and while the local retail demand Is good and the shippers h&vu been takinc all the surplus stock , so that notwithstanding the heavy re ceipts there hns been no nccumiilntion of stocks. The ruling price Is lOc nnd the mar ket can be called active at that price. Ke- norts from other markets Indicate a decline but as yet the effect tins not been felt here. Dnr > * ir : > Poui/inv The receipts have been light and the market linn. Chickens na\e been in eood demand and good stock has sold readily at lOc. In n few Instances extra choice-stock has brought lie. Small fat turkeys have- been soiling at lOOllc , and coarse heavy turkeys at 9iOc. The demand Is mostly In u .small way as llvo poultry Is coming in season and It Is only due to the extremely light receipts that the above prices have been obtained. LIVK Poui/riiv The receipts of live poul try have been very light thus far as the sea- Mm Is not fairly opened. There Is * very fair demand and everything received thus far lias sold readily on arrival. Good heavy fowls or chickens have sold at 83.00 ( 3.25 per'doien , whllu a few choice have gone at 63,50.

He Attempted to Win n .lnck-1'ot With a I'nir of Uottccs. WASHINGTON , D. C. , March 13. The president lately lost f 10 at poker. A few days before the oloio of the last session of congress Mr. Cleveland felt the need of a little relaxation. Colonel Lament suggested a quiet liitlo game of ] > oker. This .seemed to lill the , bill , and the selec tion of a party was left to Mr. Lainont. Tht ) hour was set for 10 o'clock at night , and a senator nnd two representatives sat down to the table. Lainont was banker and suggcsed that the limit be $5. Thu president sat on the right of the bank'er nnd the senator on the left. Everybody took $10 worth of chins to be gin with. The game proceeded with varying fortunes ami exciting jack-pots until nearly morning. The banker then seemed to ue n , little ahead , and his winnings came about equally from the president and the sena tor. The congressmen were old hands , but they found that all their skill was necessary to keep even with the game. A series of live jack-pots was suggested to close the night's play. Thu lirst time around no ono could open the pot , and on the next deal it took queens or better. The senator opened for the limit and everybody staid in. The representatives each took two card ; , the president one nud the senator three. Lamonttstood pat. The betting began vigorously , and the president looked as if he was blnlling an oftiec-seekcr. Finally ono of the rep resentatives called. Lainont showed down a king full. The president had thu auo of hurrts , nine and .seven of diamonds mends , and the deuces of clubs and spades. ( Tlic senator had u queen full , aiid the representatives had a tray full and two pair , aces tip , respectively. La ment raked in the pot and the players cashed in their chips. The president was out $10. The congressmen told the fetory to some of their colleagues and that is liow it got out. A clcrk in Louisville invested ? 50 in pork at a bucket-shop the other day , and succeeded in running it up to $5,000. Then he determined to make it $10,000 and quit and get married. His f5OCO crept up almost to the desired amount , and then the market took a turn against him and in a lew hours ho didn't havu even the original ? 50. Ho will not marry this spring. A New Orleans parrot was very much annoyed by a couple of doves that , as soon as she stopped out of her cage , rushed in and a to up all the food there. Ono day , after apparent profound thought , the parrot stepped out of thu cage , and then turned and with great care f > lmt the door after her. The squawk of triumph she then gave showed mat .she knew that she had done well. WANTED , RAW FURS ! At thehlRhost market prlco. .
