CIMCAOO , Juno 4. [ Special Telegram to
Iho UIK.I : The boycott against representa-
ilves of the clique was not enforced to-day.
| Un the contrary the crowd appeared to bo
jrlad of a chance to do business with them
jind on term ? that would have been consid
ered painful yesterday. There was a rush
ing trndo In Juno wheat to-day and a largo
business In July , the latter future being
riore or less neglected. The Initial trades ID
iuno ) were on a basis of W c , which was the
Jowest point ot the day. The shorts had boon
tnimpod fall of tips and pointers to the effect
that Juno wheat would not sell again as low
ns We , anil they were nervous In conse-
Dtiencu. The score on the subject of storage
room did not allay the apprehensions of the
pears , and they wcro again heard to lift their
Jrolcc.s against a possible corner In elevator
capacity. The nearest any ot them cnme to
devising a plan for making two bushels of
wheat go Into the space usually occupied
l > y one bushel was to propose the shipping
cut of corn to make room for wheat , and this
jBchemo Is seriously contemplated by some
phould the blockade become n fact Instead of
RD anticipation. The market began moving
ip from the very start , gradually at first and
then faster and faster. Neither Irnln ,
reen it Co. nor Kurshaw & Co , appeared as
ictlvo tactors In establishing values , but
[ lotfcntuld & Co. wcro In the pit. They were
tellers , however , and not buyers. It was the
) tlier parties who wanted wheat to-day. On
very % c advance they lut 'cm have any-
jvliere Hum 150.0UO to 250,000 bushels , and
llu'lr overtures were gratefully , not to say
[ eagerly , met. From OOJ c Juno advanced to
lc , Kottlea back MCc , and went to Ulc.
fllt-rc there was a brlet halt , followed by an
1 movement at a swinging gait to
Again the market fell back a notch ,
_ nly to advance sharply to ftic , The close ;
Bt 1 o'clock was We. It Is estimated thai
Waring the morning Kosenfcld A Co. sold
She hhorts 3,000,000 bushels. July opened at
iMKct lluctuatca between W5Kc and 87fc / , and
tloHOd at Wijfc. Ilia moro deferred de
liveries moved within } { C t < % c limits and
p\osud a hhado higher than yesterday.
, Corn opened quiet in the speculative mar-
cet , but tnlr activity was developed later aud
ho bitbsincs transacted , Including that of
hanging over near-l y to moro deferred do-
Iveries , footed up a liberal aggregate. The
principal feature of trade was the cxtraor-
llnury strength opened In cash and Juno
iroporty. While July closed at the same
irlco us last night , and moro deferred futures
ic low er , the seller month was * { c higher.
Lliero was considerable covering of July for
the account of country operators and selling
tot August and September outsiders being
now largely short , it Is said , on line crop
uospects. The buoyancy In the cash mar-
; ut was attributed to heavy buying by a
> romlnent local operator ID wheat who la
hipping out corn In largequnntltlcs In order
o iiuike storage room here for wheat held
Mitshle. In some quartois It Is even hinted
Jiat tliero Is a deal on In July rorn that when
( nlly developed will cause as many hearts to
icho as the wheat deal. The July option
opened at 3Uc , or > esterday's closing price ,
Mid alter touching & % c sold up to 40c , but
nil the selling orders at ihls figure could not
be executed. The market reacted to 3U5 c
plosed at that , with .luno quoted at 38Kc. An-
jst at WXtyWUc , and September at 4ljfc.
Oats wuro onlv moderately actlvo and the
narket averaged ( inner , the July and Au-
rust options closing a shade better than yes-
erdny , July opened steady at 2rtc , sold to
! GKc , and closed at 2Go , with both August
inu September quoted at "f } { c ,
The provision trade has apparently loft Its
ilow rut for thn present. In pork the con-
Inuml manipulation prevents a revival of
inoculation , but In the actlvo line lard and
iliort ribs trading has assumed a good deal
> f Its old activity. In to-day's market the
mlinallon exhibited developed more lively
ntcrcst , nnd ynsterdav's lmpro\ement was
n some respects more limn sustained. Short
ribs at the clote showed a decline of 2tfc

Berlin Letter to London Times : This
morning , in spite of the continued in
clemency of the weather , tlio emperor
again went to Potsdam to inspect several
regiments of tlio guards garrisoned
thero. The most interesting featuao of
the review was a cavalry charge deliv
ered by the Guard Hussars , under Prince
William , against the three battalions of
the First Foot Guards. This splendid
regiment is now armed , like most of the
army , with the now repeating ritlc , and
the blank cartridge volleys which it
poured into Prince William's attacking
squadrons to-day wcro something quite
terrific. No body of cavaliy , not to speak
of infantry , can possibly live within the
close range of such an incessant and
consuming repeating nlle lire. That was
the moral of to-day's sham light at Pots-
