THE ( BLAHA DAILY BEE : MONDAY , DECEMBER 17 , 1888 , Scalpers Bnnkccl on a Ercnk That Never Oamo THEN MADE A RUN FOR COVER. A Mule rnlry Tale About Ilntcliln- eon llctlrliiE ( Josshi Alintit Hull Comlilnlng "Short" rri | > litcticil. CHICAGO ruonucn CmrAflo. Dec , 13. [ Special TclcRrntn to Tun UnK.l The whrnt imrrket was dull to- nay Tlio scalping crowd was disposed to piny for the iisun.1 Sntunlny slump , but they dlil notpo too fur. Tlio market did not act o milt them. In short , the slump did not como ns per progrnnimo , prices at the oloso \icit\K \ } ( c higher than flip opening ; rcstlnp In fnct , nt the outside. Tlioro wns nothing In the general situation to Induce any further speculative short selling to-day. That sort of news , whlt'h wns plentiful jcstcrduy , was not fed by fresh fuel. On the contrary the feeling favored the steadying up of values. Trading was most netlvo earlv mid late , the central part of the session belnu very < ju let. The market opened nt tl.10'for May , * rancert toll. 10' , oft to tl.OO.J . up ' 4'c. uncle to tl.OlK@l.O ! ; ! > ? 4' , up to tl.lOig1 , oft to ( l.K ( > X , and up sharply to ahove (1. 11. As before stated scalpers were banking on a break , nnd when tlic session drew towards its close unit the break did not materialize , tlmy ran for cover , hoisting the market ns indicated. The highest price touched for May was tl.ll'j , , and the close wns il.lOX < 3l > H > December opened ut $1.04 V. ranged to fl.O.'iV C&iibiJX , and closed at the outside. January opened at tl.O.X' l.Otl'i' ' , nnd closed at tl.00'4. ' The early feature was thn heavy buving by Hnxtcr. 1'oole , Mitchell and others were also good buyers on the initial decline , mid Hutclilnson'H brokers picked up what they could without disturbing values. Hutchlnson bus been nstcadybuycrof wheat nil the week , which has given nso to a story that the bull leaders Iiavo kept out of the market to let him cnvnr Ins line of wheat , on the assumption that he Is clearing up his trade prcpaiatory to uniting the board lor a time. Gossips bolster up this story by the further statement that Hutchtnson Is the only man the b ill leaders are afraid of , and that they are very wiUing to get rid of him by letting him out without loss. Tills story is given for what It is worth. No affidavits po with it , and our. Fe.iuers are at liberty to believe as much or ns little of it as they may elect. The Ic rally that distinguished the last half hour of business was helped along by the report that the bull leaders had at length combined and put their deal In the hands of Itcain. Tills Is another Btory that Is dcllcicnt in "body , " and ranks head of " talcs. " It under the "fairy fright ened the scalpers who were short , just the same and accelerated their movement Into camp. Cables wore rather easier In tone and llicro has bi'nn a halt in the farting ufT in the movement of wheat in the northwest. Estimates for Monday ( two days ) at Minne apolis arc 500 cars. Nevertheless , with the total stocks of contract wheat in the west , but 10,000,000 bushels nnd the receipts merely nominal everywhere , except in. Min neapolis , the bulls do not feel that they have any occasion for alarm. They are not alarmed in point of fact. Thu receipts of corn were as heavy , as yesterday's estimate had foreshadowed , and that of itsulf was an argument on the boar Bfile. Tlio weather being mild mid wet , would under ordinary circumstances , and in view of the small quantity of No. - now. coming forward , bo used as 11 lover" by the bull ; , , but the speculative sentiment appeared to be strongest on the bear sido. The early weakness in wheat kept down speculation for u rise in corn. The principal buyers were again said to be the shorts. Tlio receipts for Monday Were estimated at ( UO cars , which are , however , inclusive of Sun day's ' inspection. In to-day's inspection thcro worn only 23 cars of No. . From four ports yesterday there wore exports ot 318,000 bushels , but Liverpool was quoted lower in to-day's ' dispatches. There were consider able sales of May corn at 37I e by prominent operators , but the price did not go below that llguro. Speculators , begin to express the opinion quito generally , that tyices are low. Fluctuations were very narrow , but a slight reduction In price was again the re sult of the day's business , January closing at l } c , February at : ! 4 } @ : ! 4 > c , and May at 87Vo all showing fractional declines from yesterday's closing figures. In provisions , yesterday , the bearish move ment wns continued. Unexpectedly largo ar rivals of'hog , coupled with the anticipated increased receipts this coining week , made the element favoring lower prices unusually Independent. The market for a consider able portion of the morning was overloaded with speculative offerings , and before any re covery occurred pork showed n break from yesterday's closings of 'J7 ! @JOc , lard of 12 > @ 15c and short ribs of 10c. During the hist hour the bears , however , became more con servative nnd some of the ground lost was regained. Still the depression suffcreil. for the day was quite liberal , amounting in work to 20@22jC | , in lard for January and later deliveries to 7) < j@10i ! and in short ribs to 5CiO CHICAGO IjlVE STOCK CIIICAOO , Dee , ID. [ Special Telegram to TUB Hun. ] CATTLR The business for the week JUst closed may bo renottcd as an 1m provemont over last week. The demand , es pecially for good sorts , has been stronger , and whllo no very considerable advance has been gained , the fooling Is better. The mar ket for common to fair grades has slightly Improved In tone , the supply of that class having fallen off , but not until prices touched IV i the lowest point on record. Nothing llko so many common cattle wcro over before shoved upon the market nt this season of the year. Thcro w"as less Christmas stock hero than for many years. Yet thcro wns all that was wanted. The bly , fat , old fashioned ox has had his day. The weighs sold this week did not como up 19 those of former years. However , fair prices wcro ob tained. The outlook for next week Is not encouraging ; in fact satisfactory mar kets need not bo looked for until after Christ mas , unu perhaps not until late In. January. Thus far the prevalence ) of mild weather has chocked shipments of poultry , and thn tlrst cold snap , therefore , will probably see. the market largely overstocked and prices low , When chickens soil at5@0o , nnd turkeys at 7Sc per Ib , buuf und mutton ut 12J515o ( per Ib look dear.

No\v \ York Times : Nlncly-six pieces of uorecloemcil nnd uaoluhnocl bn ngo were sold nt auction in the ofllco o ( the Intornntinnnl hotel. In Turk How , the other inorninir. It wns n sorry loukinc collection of bap- ? , valises and small trunks. A largo jnoportion of tlio stull had been \\lng \ nbuut the storerooms - rooms of the hotel for several your * , and much of it was nioth-eaten and dilapi dated. It was all bought 5n nt ridicu lously low prices , rangiii } , ' fromufew cents to a dollar , by the proprietors of the house. Only one of the pieces. a small sachel , was opened. U contained n few worn toilet articles which might once have been of good qualify , and n bundle of letters. The letters were neatly tied with ribbon , nnd although they wore yellow anil tlmc-stnlned , the writing was still legible. When opened , they revealed -omance ot real life. Part of the letters were from a Philadelphia woman , evidently possessed of much re- llncmcnt and an excellent education , tea a gentleman in Wnshlngton. The re plies wore In a strong , mascullnp style of penmanship. Tlioy were recriminat ing letters showing the unhappy lot of the lovers. The story told by tnem was one of dmiblo abandonment , the woman having left her husband lot * the suko of the mun who , in turn , for her sake , had deserted his wife nnd children. Then the man had repented , nnd had declared his inten tion of repairing the wrong ho had com mitted by returning to his family. This placed tlio woman in an unfortunate po sition , nnil she threatened to commit dire and dreadful deeds if ho carried out his declared Intention. Her letters alternately pleaded anil upbraided , while his maintained a tone indicating that his repentance was sincere and his purpose to ibforin unalterable. For a period of several months the corre spondence continued in this strain , and finally a tear-stained letter from the uoinan told of her heart being broken. She requested the return of all her let ters , and bade farewell forever lo the man she had loved not wisely but too well. A A Special OflVr.

American Mngaxino : In this Parisian world of fashionable formulas the first lesson in the science of life is that ot etiquette , that the dead things of vul garity may bo wrapped in a shroud of politeness , form and custom. The second end lust-on is given when the nereep- tions are so developed as to command and control the mystery of illusion , which is the supernal art in this sphinx-HK'o domain of exclusive cus toms and antiquated formulas. The cllorts of a whole life time are devoted to this study , which , once begun , noycr ends. The next lesson is in discretion or tact , which brings tlio ambitious aspirant into a universal Held of social ell'ect and action. And thus it is that the basie principles of fashionable life arc formed , which render the student of human nature capable of grappling with the most entangled forms of eti quette , thu most mystical methods of illusion , and the mo'st subtle devices of diplomats. Yet in thcscj iln-ee require ments the essence of each is woven into the other in till their varied rules , modes of application , and hypo critical dissimulation. Etiquette is the very foundation of policy , and illusion is its framework ; yet the mystcrv of illusion belongs moio to the female mind , for.the physiologi cal fascination of this strange inllucnce only finds its proper element in the en dowments of. feminine grace and bril liancy. To know how to entertain a dinner party , how to begin a soiree musicale , how' to receiyo one's enemy with uncompromising sang froid , how to rentier a company of antipathic in dividuals at once comfortable in spirit nnd smooth of tongue , belongs to tact and etiquette ; but n line sense of per ception is required to comprehend it.
