CIIICAOO , III. , March HI. A terrific right
Imnder seemed to have struck the wheat
market In the jugular today. The first sales
showed n fall of over n cent from last oven-
Inn's closing figures , nnd a further loss of ? e
was suffered , making the drop from the high
point of ycitenln.v ! . Corn nnd provisions
felt the force of thu shock. Homo of the prl-
vxtn cables early woio Intensely bearish , us
representing foroUn buyers ns disposed to
hold ofT nnd await the result of the couro of
prices lu America. Domestic markets wcro
nil on the down grade. Crop prospects wcro
reported favorable nnd the hesitancy which
lias prevailed among the longs seems to
bn gradually crystalling to complete the en
couragement. The liquidation wns hoavy.
Thu amount thrown overboard v/as very de
pressing. 'I ho I'rico Current's summary was
generally lounrduU as moio or less of a bear

the weakness and there wus n gradual recov

that Jlay wheat In Chicago Is now

napu from Minneapolis said millers wcro com
pelled to take wheat from public elevators to
run their inllls-sjmothlng very unusual at
this I line of the your ,
A Duluth message extensively circulated
here says : "Never hits there been such nn In-

ICptinott says : "Nobody can lose a great deal
of money on long wheat nt this price , while
there Is a possibility of making n great deal

not apparently doing much to sustain the

cereals and ruled lower , tlio close being from

Traders' Tulle.
CIIICAOO. 111. , March ill. Counsolman & Day
to Coukruil Hrothera : The weakness In wheat
seemed to culminate In the open ng collapse
today when sales nt 78o and 78ic for May and
July dollvorv , respectively , wcro mado. Sumo
belated longs closed their holdings , and al
though the disposition on thu part of largo
traders to follow the market lower was plainly
wanting , us Indicated by the free covering of
short Kales ; the bulls are without a leader and
the closing rally was on a better fooling In
shipping circles. Corn declined under free
unloading hy the lute hulls from the
piovUlon crowd. Indications of bright ,
warm weather to improve grading
changed their Ideas of a probable
squcc/o In the May delivery. Shippers
bought May freely at 40u until tholr wants
wore kupulloil , after which liquidation by the
loaders of the bull clique caused a break to
U'.lJJe. Shorts covering gave the market a Into
rally of ? ie , but no reull/.lng was shown ut thn
oloso. The lack of any disposition to operate
on the hhort bldo of oats is becoming moro
pioiiouuced. The surplus from thu last crop
la largo and will probably seek the market as
boon as practlcablo to make delivery. 1'ro-
visions were m good demand throughout from
packers anil local shorts , Thu fooling pre
dominated Unit the product Is too low to re
main long nt the present figures.
CIIIUAOO , III. , March 31. Konnott , Hopkins
& Co. to S , A. McWhorter : There seems to
bo no good reason for today's weakening In
wheat. Cables were easier but the fact that
our market hns biion for days on a shipping
basis und that ( WO.OJO or 700,000 bushels havu
usually boon marketed ought to have oltsct
the foreign markets. Tor two months our
market has been above n .shipping
basis and the fnir business now
being done would uii'loubtudly turn It
but for the glowing erop reports
from iu > arly all sections of the wlnter'whoat
bolt. It looks us If this was being ovonlono
and the government report may contain a
serious surprise for short sellers. Thu weak
ness In corn would Imlk-ato that the i.-llquo
huvo temporarily suspended the manipula
tion. Tlioy huve doubtless unloaded some of
their hut-lings , but must Ktlll have a good
line loft and will probably try to
bring about another rally on which lo hell ,
Provisions hate been rather llrm but Inactive ,
Little activity 0111 bu looked for until after

met defeat , but the results of the test wcro
mo.u'ru. European buying of our stocks has
yet followed over In the narrow field of arbi

anything. It has proved that tno foreign spec

The now dramatic attraction nt Boyd's
now theater followinc the Conreul Opera
company will bJ llobart Mantoll and his
compnnj' of playors. Mr. Max Xoallnor , his
tnanaecr , arrived m the city yesterday and
announced the following brilliant ropjrtoiro
for the Omaha engagement ot the Mantoll
company : Thursday evening"Monoars ; "
Friday cvoninp , "Hamlot ; " Saturday inat-
tneo , double bill , "Tho Lesson in Acting"
nnd ' 'Tho Louisianian , "and Saturday cvoninp ,
"Tho Corsiciin Brothors. " The following is
a true estimate of Mr. Mantoll from tbo aolo
critic of the Philadelphia 1'ross :
"Mantell is a marvel. Ho belongs on the
boards , and adorns the arena of his activities.
In Monbars > hc Is majestic and masterful a
player of heroic mold measuring up to the
requirements of u noble and grandly emotional -
tional character. But it was ) n that ether
and pre-eminent character of Hamlet that
Man tell ambitiously entertained a crowded ,
critical and cultivated audicaco at the Wal
nut Street theater last night. "
"Two Old Cronies" Is boolcod at iho Far-
nom Street theater for four nights com
mencing Sunday afternoon. Of a recent
presentation in Kansas ( Jity the Times said :
Anderson's "Two Old Cronies" with its now
trim m inf-'s , and as witnessed hero By large
audiences , is one of the best attractions
offered for many \veeks. A. II. Williams us
Jacob and E. J. Hoffermau an O'Donovan ,
the "cronies" this and ootn
arc season , sus
tain not only a rather popular precedent , but
have a few gewgaws all their own.
But Ada Deaves , who can malto herself
inoro fantastically homely and raoro elegantly
fantastic by turns than anybody else , is still
the particular attraction of the show. She
has , of course , r.omo new and indescribable
powus. seine now recitations and several pop
ular old onos. The two "cronies" this sea
son makn all their entrances and exits to the
music of "Comrades. " and Ada Deaves , in
her sweeping ins and outs , U set to "Boom
do Ua. " J. Henry Mncko , Huby Welsh and
Lindloy Monson are all peed specialty people
ple and character people well placed. The
Don sisters arc capital dancers and win many
recalls. Tlieso , with Fnnnio Bloodpood and
Florence Noyatt , make a quintette of at
tractive girls , who change costumes so often
that you can hardly keep track of tuoin.

Many Lives
would be saved by taking1 in the first stage of any ill.
ness a generous dose of Brandreth's Pills ; this would be
especially true in cases of pneumonia or bad colds.
Take from six to ten pills and by their thorough action
the excess of blood is taken from the lungs to the intes
tines and congestion must stop. When you feel a cold
coming or have a chill followed by a sudden rise of
temperature take these pills first and then send for your
physician ; he won't have much to do , but then he gives
you confidence and will have the credit of the cure and
all will be satisfied.
Remember , Brandreth's Pills arc purely vegetable
and cannot do harm ; over 100,000,000 boxes have beert'
used during the past 60 years and have never done any
thing but good.
