Oinnlm fjawn Tennis Club.
This organlzitlon opened the season on
Wednesday last with Its first Indies' day this
year. Although the weather was somewhat
unpropltlous there wcro several good sots
played. Among the ladles who attended the
opening day there wcro several good players.
The club , was organized last year with n
membership limited to fifteen , the Innugu-
rntors being Messrs. Eustis , Myllus , Jaatfc ,
Flske , Ouflltts , How nnd a few others. The
club courts arc nt tlio corner of Eighteenth
nml Chicago streets , and nro beautifully lo
cated , the lot being surrounded with n
growth of fine cottonwood trees , which fur
nish ample shade. In the evenings especi
i ally , this is a beautiful spot , nnd , situated as
it is on the edge of the business portion of
FA the cltv nnd within the confines of Its most
desirable residence portion , is admirably
adapted , so fnr an convenience nnd fncillty
go. There nro two double courts nnd ono
single , which gives plenty of chance for play ,
ns the club membership Is this year limited
to twenty-four. The membership list
Is almost full , nnd In fact next
week will probably fill the list
nnd furnish several candidates fer vacancies
which may occur na the season advances.
Following nro the nnmcs of most of the
members : Eustis , .Ucan Gardner , Wells.
Roberts , J. now , J. K. Grlflltts , C. How , W.
I. J. Grlrtltts , Doanc , Grimth , Stillborn ,
MyllUB , Purdon , Voss , Weld , McCnnn , Hill.
Ainonir the reforms which the club has ef
fected this year is the system qf inviting In
dies to the grounds. For ninny reasons this
was impracticable last year , but now the
by-laws of the club provide that Wednesday
of cacli week shnll bo set apart for ladies'
lay , and that on that day every member of
the club can personally invlto any ladies of
his acquaintance to the grounds. This will
urobably stimulate n desire to piny tennis
nmong the young ladles of Omaha. But
there are probably many ladles who would
prefer watching tlio game to playing it , nnd
the club hns furnished ample accommoda
tion for this , too.
Everything promises a successful season
for this club , which is iho leading club of
Omnhn , and numbers among Its members the
champions of the city. It is said that the
success of the club in the past was to a great
extent duo to the energetic efforts of Mr.
Eustis , who was last year's president and is
n member of this year's executive committee ,
ns well as ono of the best players in fho club.
It is to bo regretted that the prominent
moneyed men of Omahn fnll to hclu the club
on financially. In the several orgalzatlons of
the kind In other cities , with which the writer
has been personally acquainted , thcro has al
ways been a "lino" membership , of men
who may not care to play themselves ,
but who uro nnxlous to nld the club's finances
by swelling Its subscription list.

If it is not filled at each performance of
"Tho Butterflies' Ball" to overflowing wo
shall think thai Omaha is far behind Chicago
in good taste as well as in public spirit.
Thcro several thousand dollars wcro realized
from this beautiful spectacular play , which
is copyrighted by the board of the homeo
pathic hospital , but which they have , by per
mission , allowed Prof. Marline to produce
for charitable causes outside the stale. This
board has sent many of its properties and
given so much kindly advice for which the
board of charities fools deeply gratified.
Will not the citizens of Omaha support the
ladies of the board of the Omaha Charity
association , who nro working hard to raise
sufllcicnt funds to completa n homo for the
children of working women 1 And is there
not public spirit enough hero to emulate the
example set us by our prosperous neighbor ,

trnimllnnry Activity on the
Chicago Itonril.
CHICAGO , May 10. [ Special Telegram to
THE BKE. ] In local monetary affairs them
Imvo been no very Important changes to not
slnco the last weekly review. There Is no
pressing demand for money from any quar
ter , yet the aggregate inquiry for" discounts nl
the lending bunking Institutions Is quite lib ]
crnl , coming front miscellaneous sources.
Bankers are well supplied with lommblo
funds and borrowers ns n rule meet with
very little difficulty In securing nccommoiln-
tlons when nblo to present satisfactory names
or collaterals. The shipment of currency to
the Interior lias Improved slightly , Indicating
nn Increased movement of farm products , yob
the amount forwarded is lighter than usual
nt this season of the year. The backwardness / *
ness of tiio seeding season and the almost Im
passable condition of interior roads tins ln |
tcrforcd with business In fnrmlng districts *
Increased speculation in grain lias enlarged
the demand for money in that quarter , but it
is largely in the way of the plnclngof margins.
Shippers of grain and provisions were mod
erate borrowers on short tlmo.'pnpcr. Lum *
bcrmcn presented some paper for discount
but tholr wants were easily supplied. Merchants
chants In the wholesale trade were moderate )
borowcrs , partially owing to slow collections
In the Interior. Interest rates were comparj )
atlvely easy nnd while there was no estab
lished reduction , borrowers obtained favora
more readily at former figures. Hound sums
were quotable nt 0 per cent on good paper
and In some Instances { % per cent was ac
cepted. Ordinary paper from outside parties
is accepted nt G@S per cent , according to thd
standing of the borrower nnd the amount re
quired. '
In eastern financial circles money is com
paratively easy. Purchases of bonds by tlio
government increase the supply of money ,
consequently borrowers are rcndily acconv
modatcd at @ -J } per cent on call or 45 }
per cent on prime mercantile papers. Ad
vices from abroad indicate that the leadlnrt
banks have increased tholr cnsh means and
the money market Iscstcady at prominent
monetary centers. Borrowers nro moderate )
in their demand during the week and offer- '
lugs wcro fair. The demand from outsidQ
sources was somewhat larger than usual.
Sales wcro made at 40@GOo premium per
$1,000 , and closed steady at 50(51 (
OOc. Foreign exchange was in fair demand
throughout the weolr , but the offerings
were light. The market was firm nnd ship *
pcr's CO dny's documentary bills on London *
changed hands nt W.84J ( < 4-1.5V < ? and closed
steady nt $4.85@4.85tf. i
The New York stool : market was only
moderately active and the feeling was dulll
Prices for all leading properties ruled lower.
The earnings of nil leading railroads cxi
hibltcd n slight increase over the returns fOB
the corresponding period In 1887 , many of thd
larger lines showing a decrease , especially la
the west nnd southwest. Foreign operators
wcro inclined to the selling side of the mar
ket , and this tended to weaken the situationj
Some speculators in stocks , moro particu
larly in the west , wore disposed to view the
reports of crop damage nnd the bnckwnrd-J
ness of the seeding season as detrimental to
railroad interests , nnd indicating less busi
ness throughout the agricultural districts }
consequently they anticipated smaller divi
dends and lower prices for stocks , and were
inclined to the "snort" side of the market'
Wall street operators wore not disposed to ,
do much business , and the bulk of thcic
trading was chiefly in the way of moderate/
amounts nt slight change in prices. Tho. '
trading was mainly in specialties. The ng- '
grcgato sales on the Now York stock cxi
change for the week were 1,17,000 ! ) shares.
While there probably have been many
weeks in the history of the Chicago grain
trade which have been credited with a larger'
speculative trade , there probably have not
been many in which moro interest and
anxiety prevailed than during the one Jusff
closed. Local operators have been close ob'
servers of the general surroundings of trade ,
nnd speculators In all the lending grain mar'
kcts of this country and Europe have en
gaged in transactions to a considerable ex
tent. It is claimed that the speculativa ele
ment in the farming districts have been/ /
moderate in tlicir transactions nnd n grcntf
bulk of the business was credited to profes'
sional traders parties who are over on the
alert to take advantage of the situation of
affairs and who trade in unusually large )
quantities. The strength which was mani
fested to some extent during the previous
week was moro fully developed and a higher
range of prices reached. The reported dam
age to growing crops , the backwardness oC
the season and the retarding of planting. weB
nnd cold weather in many sections of thn
west , and a largo decrease in the supplies of
wheat and corn , have all combined to enlarge )
speculative trading nnd encourage operators
ontho"long"sidoof themnrket. Considerable )
realizing no doubt occurred , and the wcolc
probably cioscs with smaller holdings in the
aggregate bjr largo operators than two or
three days ago , though they are still quito
largo. Outside prices were not fully sus
tained , however , though the closing figures
show some improvement on the closing fig
ures of ono weak ago. The movement ol
grain to western markets has been improved
somewhat , as shippers have exerted them
selves to forward their supplies to take ad-
vnntngo of prices now current. Shipments
from western markets have been free , espec
ially by the lake routo. Arrlvnls of grain nt
seaboard have been fair nnd the distribution
through the interior towns of Now England
and middle states and Canada quito liberal.
The export movement was not very largo
and chiefly of property purchased some tlmo
ago at lower prices than nro now
current. Advices from abroad , while show
ing rather moro strength In a general way ,
indicate that prices have not responded in
proportion to the appreciation In western
markets. Export orders nro rather light for
both grain and provisions , corn and Hone
being the only articles which attracted any
attention. Provisions have exhibited a little )
moro strength in ayinpnthy with grain. bu.t
the undertone to the market during the
middle of the week indicated un easier feel
ing and prices were reduced materially. At
the extreme close , however , the market
showed considerable strength nnd the highest
prices of tliu week wcro realized. Arrivals
of live stock were moderately frco nt nil
western markets. The packing of tlio west
Is progressing favorably nt about last year's
rule.
Mystorioiiu Disappearance.
CIIMK , May 18. [ Special to TUB HER , ]
Ono of those mysterious canovof the disap
pearance of parsons that fill the long roll of
unsolved problems has Just closed In the city.
About March 23,1SS7 , ono John Hope , of this
city , a man well known by almost nil persona
lie re had occasion to make n trip to England.
I3oforo starting ho carefully arranged hla
property hero and loft it In the hands of n
faithful friend. Ho drew from the bank bc-
Lwcnn ffiOO nnd $700 to pay his expenses , anil
started off with a happy heait to visit the
scenes of his early dnyti ; ho bid good-byo to
these for whom ho entertained an affection ,
and started elf on hta long journey. The lasC
seen of him was on his way to the railroad
lepot. From that time till this no trace or
lilm has been found. Not the leant trace of his
whereabouts can bo found , AH of the princi
ple cities Imvo boon in communication with
tlio authorities here ' and still no sign.
Die pollco of the different cities in
tha'cast have searched without result. Mr. O.
1C. Hlflln , ono of Plnkerton'a New York dd-
toctlves , was employed , nnd for a week otf
moro he has been devoting his time and cn-
nrgies to ferreting out tlio mystery , but at
last has given up the case , stating IbntJ
Mayor T. II. Miller had dcno everything Ii >
the wet Id that could bo done to bring tha
mystery to light. No tlmo nor ox pen so has
been spared to bring this very mystoriyug
case to light , but all efforts seem of no aval ) . '
Mr. Hope was n well bohavod. steady man
who paid strict attention to his work , what
