CHICAGO , Juno P. [ Special Telegrtim to
Tin : HKK. ] The only Influence in tlio whcnt
mnrkct to-dny was the government crop-re-
| > ort , together with n RUCKS or two us to wlmt
it would be , nnd sovornl Interpretations of
wlmt It actually was. Tlicso influences wcro
BUfllclcnt to give us a mnrkct which lluctu- .
ntcd more widely nml wildly than any seen
licro for u long time. The mistakes tlmtmcn
made In their haste to take ndviintngo of the
curliest news furnished n strong argument
for the issuing of the report at , nlRht , oral
nny rate nt some other time thnn In the midst
of the session. The crop report bcgnn to
conic nt 11 o'clock. Up to that time the mar
ket hnd fluctuated about e , with no consid
erable trading and no especial tendency in
cither direction. July wheat , which had
opened nt & "ijc and sold at Ka and 85c ,
was standing at SS'fc ' , which was hist night's
closing price , at the tlmo the
llrst crop rumor arrived. This waste
to the effect that the condition Klvcn
was 78 , and immediately the price fell
to84J < c. Almost immediately dispatches ciuno
from New York giving the average as 0(5. (
Then July advanced In less tlmo than It
tnku. to tell It to 8(5 ( , ' < c. By this tlmo the
genuine press report had arrived and a hasty
, glance ill It showed the average condition of
winter wheat to bo 73.3. Without waiting to
further investigate the report the longs
began to sell and the downturn was about
as rapid as the advance had boon. It was
not checked until July wheat hnd sold down
to 4c , u continuous decline of IJ c from
'tho top price , and all accomplished In a very
few minutes. Hero buying by one strong
local house stopped the decline and steadied
the market giving speculators a little chance
to think , closer examination of the govern
ment report showed a decrease in the sprint'
wheat acreage of 184,000 acres , and of winter
wheat of 1,750,000 acres , and as the govern
ment statistician put the per centago of re
duction of acreage through the entire winter
wheat region at 7.2 , it was seen that the fig-
urcs which came llrst from New York Oil-
were not so for out of the way with every
thing taken Into consideration. The senti
ment of the pit changed and an advance
began which was slow nt first. but presently
became quite rapid and diil not stop until
July wheat touched SO igSO c. a fraction
higher than It had gone on the previous
bulge. This was within live minutes of the
end of the session und the close was

Large receipts of corn press upon the spec
ulative market for that groin with almost ir
resistible force. To bo snro receipts to-day
wcro less than expected by 83 cars , and the
market wus a triilo firmer nt the owning in
consequence , but even these decreased re
ceipts were so much Inrgcr than the corn
bulls expected u week ago that they found
little encouragement in the decrease. Then
ciiinc nil Increased estimate for Monday's re
ceipts to give confidence to the bears. July
corn opened at 53c , which was } e above last
night's close , and sold soon after the opening
ut r > 3i c , then gradually dropped with oc
casional reactions to & 2Kc , advanced to 53c
ngain , then under the influence of the esti
mates for Monday , fell to .VJiJ'c , advanced to

in wheat , and closed at G C'tR ! " < < - ' Septem

The trade In oats was very light with nar
row fluctuations , no special feature and but
little change ) in price from yesterday's close.
July oats opened and closed ut2ifc ! ! ! , ranging
from 32Xc to ! 1-.JnC. September oats opened
nt 27ffe and closed witti that price asked ,
solllni : down nt ono time to 271fic.
In the provision trade the week closed with
n better showing of strength than was nntic-
' ipatcd. Husiness failed to show any particu
lar enlargement , but the dullness witnessed
was offset by light offerings and with hold
ers refusing to press their property , better
prices prevailed. In pork the day's actual
advance was 5c , in lard 5fi'10e ( ' , and in short
ribs 2J ( tf5c. Lard led in strength nud in

NEW YOIIK , Juno 0. [ Special Telegram to
TIIR BEE. ] STOCKS The stock mnrkct dur
ing the past week was dull und more un
interesting thun the preceding ono. The
f cut u res wore Heading und St. Paul , which ,
like the two preceding ones , constituted
about half of the dully transactions. It was
expected that the freedom with which the
125,000,000 , now Heading 4s were subscribed
for would give vigor to the market foi
shares. Such hopes , however , proved
groundless , as tlio market only failed tc
show more than a temporary improvement ,
and afterward settled buck into its formci
lethargy. St. Paul has continued to bo the
conspicuously wciik spot in the market. It
seems to huvo no support from any quarter ,
Its earnings nro no larger for thu first five
mouths of the year than they wore during
the same pailodof 18S3 , and its bond and
stock Issues aggregate nearly fifty millions
inoro thun at that tme. : It Is not possible
that the company will pay dividends or
common stock hereafter , or at least until the
earnings show decided gains , of whicli
there is at present but little prospect. Div
idcnd was to-day offered on thu street 01 :
5,000 shares at 1 per cent , and the price
dropped to G3J c. The trunk Hues are'stll
unable to pitch up rates and reports of more
or less cutting continue. The western line :
arc having a hard time of lt'unj from indi
cations they un likely to continue so foi
some months to come. The statistical bu
risau on southwestern business
create In earnings on the MUsourl river' nt
to per cent. A prominent ofllcial of the
Alton Is authority for the statement that the
tonnage has fallen off two-thirds < < nd rates
1-3 per cent. The nctlon of the Iowa rnll-
rend commissioners in reducing rntcs lower
than heretofore will force roads to make
lower tariffs. The poor statements of iho
Burlington , Atchlson nnd St. Paul have
gone far toward unsettling the confidence
of holders of those securities , and n good
deal of long stock has been dumped. The
bond statement made n satisfactory showing
but had no effect on to-day's mnrkct , which
was weak nnd tame. Trading was light nnd
chiefly confined ( o grangers , which were
sold quite freely. Out of the 81,800 shares
traded In 31,200 were St. Paul , 8,000 Northwestern -

Aurora Waking Up.
AuuoiiA , Nob. , Juno 0. To tlio KiU-
torofTin : HKK : The building sengon
of 1888 in this city nlthough beginning
later than usual will provo to bo the
busiest ono wo have hail for .voars. The
past thrco years have witnessed the
erection of but few business houses ,
the growth of our city during , thut time
having boon con II nod principally to the
residence portion , anil t-otno very line
dwellings have been erected. The Ih'St
brick building to bo erected the pres
ent season will bo The Temple Craft , to
bo two stories high , si/.o of building
00x110. This block is being crcctud by
a syndicate composed of our citizens ,
the organization having it , capital of
$20,000. The next in order will bean
an opera houso. Mr. J. H. llcll , jircsi-
dent of the First national bank ,
will erect a two story brick ,
00 feet front , which will bo
a handsome structure and furnish what
Aurora has long needed , a Hrst-class
opera houso. Mr. G. W. Cuny will also
erect a liandsomo brick building before
the season closes. A now county jail
will also bo erected , to bo composed of
brick and stone , and will cost , when
completed , $0,000 or 87,000. Other
bricks tire contemplated.
Aurora is just beginning to show her
importance an a footling and shipping
station for cattle and hogs. Scarcely
n day passes without seeing from ton to
twenty-five car loads of stock shipped
from this point to Omaha or Chicago.
Some 15,000 head of cattle and twice
that number of hogs have boon fed the
past winter upon Hamilton county's
corn and liny crop. ANON.
Automatic Fire Escapes.
A novel device in thony of a fire
escape was exhibited recently nt the
CSrund Pacific hotel to the chiefs of the
lire department and n largo number of
urchileclrt , underwriters and business
men , says the Chicago Mail. The de
vice consists of a borics of balconies ,
which extend across the front of tlio
building. Attached to each balcony is
n ladder , which whoa not in use , lies
lengthwise , along the outside of the
balcony. When a lire occurs the lad
ders , each turning on a steel shaft and
acting automatically , assume a vertical
position , connect and make a contin
uous double ladder from the sidewalk
to the top of the building. While tlio
inmates of the building are escaping by
the inside of the ladder the lirumen
may bo using the outside , and between
the two there is a space down which
persons maybe passed.
Jn connection with the ladder is a
system of thermostats and electric
alarms. As soon as tlio heat of the lire
reaches ono of the thermostats , which
are placed on the different floors of the
building , and also throughout the build
ing. At tlio same instance the ladders
are swung into position , and when the
firoinon arrive , without waiting to raise
their own ladders , they can ascend to
any lloor or to the roof. The ladders
may also bo swung and the alarms
bounded by means of levers on each
floor , no more strength being required
than is necessary to "pull" a llre-
alarin box. Tlio inventor of the system
is Mr. Alfred Moore , of Detroit , and a
company of Chicago men was formed to
day for tlio manufacture of the up-
plianco.
The Sen Captain.
Sea captains have always boon sup
posed to bo fearfully wicked , said a sea
captain to a reporter of the San Fran
cisco Chronialo recently. I don't know
on what principle this theory is based ,
but I suppose that , away from the moral
restraint of saloons and places of that
kind , they are supposed to develop ab
normal profanity , depravity and
irrovcranco. They arc always supposed
to bo warring with the powers above ,
and cursing them when there's no
wind , or too much wind , or to oheavy a
breeze , or a fog , or something. A sou
captain can outswear anything in life
except the chief engineer of a lire de
partment at a small lire. Out sea cap
tains are not all bad. They can carve a
chicken ; they can tell pretty nearly
about the weather ; they huvo several
very rare accomplishments , but to hoar
thorn swear when u squall's in progress
and they're u triilo Into in shortening
sail , is illiberal education. There lias
alwavs boon a kind of coolness between
missionaries und sou captains. Not bo-
eaupo sou captains are irreverent , but
mainly , 1 think , because missionaries
don't object to , hut the captain wants
anything except a headwind. They
do suy , too--I think it is a scandal
that missionaries don.'t got seasio
und they eat four meals a day. A mu'c '
on board u ship who oats four meals "
day in an object of loathing and con
tempt , I3ut sou captains like to toll
their wildest and mobt thrilling btorios
to missionaries. T hey bcliovo thorn ho
much inoru readily than the suspicious
landbinon of other character. On the
Peninsular and Oriental steamorngoing
to India , whenever tlioy have mission
aries on board , the captain gets some
oil of cloves and oil of cinnamon from
the htoward and rubs the tUitV on the
halyards and Bonds down stairs for the
missionaries in the middle of dinner to
como up and smell the ' 'spicy brcozo1'
that "blow soft from Ceylon's iulo , " and
they always marvel at the uptnoss of
Bishop Iliibcr's hymn , which begins
with that pretty allusion.
A IllKtnrlo Place.
An old time Fourth ward fight took
place in Printing HOUMJ square re
cently , says the Now York Telogrum.
It is historic ground , made famqus by
the fact thut Whltoluw Kcid nnd Dana
abused each other there for yours , then
shook hands and proceeded arm in arm
down the street one afternoon in full
sight of street full of ; iht.nishcd ( spec
tators. But other things have mudo
the historic square famous. Old women
huvo sold upnloa there binco Columbus
discovered America , bo to speak. anO
the .shadow of u ui-cat wU v Jloraco
Greoloy once fell upon Ha pavements.
Uut to return to the light in quostiotl.
It recalled the days of the volunteer
i'Mrc department , when people fought
for the fun of the thing. The contoBtr
nils yesterday were two women. It wnS
nn impromptu fight. There were no
gloves , no Marquis of Queonsliiiry rules ,
no backers or follows to deelnro time
ind sKnga | oil the sluggers from time to
timo. The only thing that was knocked
outot the ring was science it wont to
? rnss in the first round. But the
women stuck to it and would have died
then nnd there in the sight of thrco
Lircut newspaper offices , hnd it not been
tor the fact that the lighters live by
selling newspapers , nnd they hnd to
stop the battle when the last edition
came out and attend to business ,
The two women ono young and the
other not so young are rivals nnd sup
ply the public with literature. Ono baa
nor stamping ground elose to the Frank
lin sUituto ; the other , the younger girl ,
liangs out further on toward the bridge.
The younger woman was licensed of
intruding on her neighbor. Words not
used in polite pociotv followed , mm for
a fo\v seconds it was like a riot in a llsh
market.
Then the older woman touched upon
the moral oharuetor of her antagonist.
A rush and two shrill screams , mixed
up with newspapers , followed. Blows
wore struck nnd the older und slighter
woman sent out a blow from tlio shoul
der that shook the other's nose loose
from its foundations. The younger
woman didn't llinch. She caused nor
antagonist to spin around like a top.
Quick as .lorsoy lightning the other
soi/.cd the whirling woman about the
nock and sent in a do/.on heavy blows on
her head , whllo she managed towrigglo
out of the other's embrace and got froo.
t'Yom a hair pulling and face scratch
ing hcono began the rivalled Bedlam.
A fierce , disgraceful hand to hand fight
continued , until a boy rushed up and
yelled : "Five o'clock edition Telegram ,
just out ! " and then the two women
gathered themselves together as ono
woman and mudo a boo line for their :
supply of evening papers. Ton min
utes later they wcro soiling pupors as
usual and apparently were aa peaceful
as two singed cats uftor a lire.
