I COMMERCIAL AND FINANCIAL Buslnwa Wns Meager nnd Flnotiwtlona Slight on 'Ohnngo ' Yesterday , WAITED FOR THE GOVERNMENT REPORT Amount of Wheat In runner * ' IliimU At tracted Much Attention Corn Oper ator * ' rn i : < | iiully Inclined to Hold Oir I.atc. ClltCAOO , III. , March 8-It was a slow day on 'change today. HuKliicss was meager and nuctuatlonssllght. Compared with yesterday closing the prices are as follows : Wheat Uo higher for May , corn lie higher , pork from 214C to Go lower , lard 2"c lower for May and from 7'-Jc to 10c lower for later deliveries , fibs Do lower for May. Theru was a general disposition to wait anil BOO what the government report would show- as to the amount of wheat In farmers' hands. The price of May wheat In New Vork was quoted as tow as 70o or only 2ic ! over Cnlc ipo , whllo the leglllmato dllTerence Is about lOc , and May In Minneapolis-sold as low as GGV , thu lowest price yet touched this season. All this seemed to Impress traders with the con viction that wo were materially out of line with other markets and look'-d fora speedy adjustment. Hence there was not much disposi tion to trade. Prlco changes were conllned tea a range of'ic. There was rather moro disposition to sell July wheat today , which sold at from 'I ? to V : dl count , ns compared with the prices current for May. The reason assigned for thu weak ness In July was that the weather was consid ered fimmiblo In the winter wheat districts. Corn operators were discussing t he govern- mentcrop report and some of tini ; shorts were afraid It would bo bullish. This caused fuither covering nnd at the same time pie- vented unv liberal selling. The wet weather waHiiUo favorable to the long side as t was against the gradlm ; and with Ind ro ids In I ho countiy , continued light receipts are proh- Oats firmed up with corn , closing 'ic higher. Provlsltms > liirted lower , mainly In response to a dec'llno of fiom 10c to lOc for live hogs at the yards and the quality of the receipts \ \ showed ( .oiiiu Improvement. With free I buying by HID local operators the market advanced - * vanced to within a point of yesterday's clos ing prices , Some teall/ing later carried t bo market down below the opening figures. I liu subsequent trading was maiki'd by an upward tendency , the market closing .steady. Kstlmated receipts for tomorrow : \\heat , 100 cars ; corn , 100 cars ; oats , 00 cars ; hogs , 22,000 head.

The market cloxod llrni In tone , but without c.scltemcnt. Tin- sales footed up only 274,712 shares , against 412,000 yesterday. The Post says : A noticeable but by no means expected feature In the day's movem.'nt of money was tlioisudd.ni falling off In the west ern demand for currency. Today's shipments wsro only a small fraction of yesterday's. The movement should In fact be practically com pleted by this tlino , and a few days moro ought to bring a leturn movement. It Is worlny of special initlco tlmt thu .strain of tilts recent di'iiiandhasromo almiHt wholly from Chlcago. It Is Uhlcago banks which lor the la.st day or two hnvii boon not only withdraw ing their New ork balances but borrowing at New York rail's. This lends some .special In terest ti thn currency movement and .suggests tlio p'-i'ullar ' urgent demand Incident to the business proportions for the World's fair.

A VOTING MACHINE , Invention of an Onmlii : Man Thill l'ri < ml < p lo Maltn Vutlnit I'nny. A contrivance which Is termed n voting machine has been invented by Albert Hjo- borg , a resident of this city. Its chief pur- IHise , us claimed by the Inventor , U to nmko easy and rapid the process of voting , to lire- vent fraud in elections nnd to obtain quick returns. The Inventor Is now engaged n > on n mo- tnlllo model of the machine , which will bo finished In about six weeks. Ho will then give these who desire to Inspect the tnachlno an opiKirtunlty to do so. Mr. Sjoberg , the Inventor , was born In Sweden , is n machinist by trade nnd was nt one time superintendent of n foundry and machine : shop In his native country. In 1878 , at the exposition of Jonkoping. ho was awarded the llrst prize for a carpenter's tool ( ) ( which ho invented. Coming to this country In 18711. ho followed his trade until Ib8l. when , owing to physical Injuries then received , ho was obliged to give It up. Since then he has been engaged principally hi the newspaper business. Tlio machine uhieh helms now invented Is described as a box t tree and one-half feet long , eleven inches high nnd twenty inches deep. It has 100 keys , which work some thing like these of a cash register. Tliev are painted of different iulors to distinguish the different parties. These keys when pressed down become locked in such n way us to prevent the easting of more than one vote for any particular person , and are yet capable of such adjustment as to allow the electors to vote , for example , for throe out of nine senators , where three onl.x are to bo voted for At one eml and on the side oppo site the keys is a lever , which is raised and lowered b'.v the voter after lie has cast his ballot. This movement throws those ku.\s which have been pressed down , hack again into position , ready for the next voter , an alarm sounding at the same time to indicate that he has i'.mshed. On the tup of the box is a slide which remains locked until the polls are closed. Upon removing tills there appears a covering of glnss and be neath the glass n system of wheels ( there being one for oaoh kov ) upon which the number of votes cast is ronlsteivd. provision being timdu for the registering of as many as l.HK ( ) votes. From the numbering upon those wheels Is the Html result obtained. The process of voting , should this mncnlno he employed at our elections , would be some thing like this : Tlio voter is admitted to the room whore the judges sit. Ho is given no ballot , hut steps immcdiitcly to the machine. He sees a row of keys of various colors au.l properly labeled before him. Ho lluds upon closer in spection that , the red keys , for example , represent the democrats , the white the republicans , and a combination of the two , the Independents. Ho llnds also that if ho desires to vote a straight ticket ho need press down but one key , but not so If he wants to "scratch. " Wo will suppose that lit votes a mixed ticket. Ho sees at the left end three keys njxjti which the throe candi dates for governor are named. He presses down the red key. voting for the democratic candidate. This key remains down and la , together with the other two keys , securely locked. < Ho cannot cast another ballot for candidate without and ' raising lowering the lever at the end. But this would sound an alarm and indicate to the Judccs that JJ | had finished. This , therefore , ho dares not do , for it would deprive him of the right to vote for candidates for other oftlees. Contenting himself with the one vote for governor , ho passes on to th next set of candidates , and so continues in ho comes to the nine senators. Ho wants to vote for the republican candidates , lie picks out the three whlto keys , and presses them down , thus securely locking them and the others. In this manner ho proceeds until he reaches the last sot of can didates. Ho then raises and lowers the lover , this throwing all keys back into posi tion and removing all evidence of the char acter of the ticket ho voted. The alarm which is sounded by the movement of this lever tells the judges that the voter has linishcd easting his b.illot and that the ma- ehinu ; is ready for the next voter. The keys can ; be manipulated very rapidly , the time consumed in voting a mixed ticket being much shorter thatf that now required.
