The very poor prospect of the ne.xt winter
wheat erop did not Improve and now nltirm

Omibi : : I'rodnce Market.
With the wind blowing a gale , and with
every ono remaining Indoors that was not
absolutely forced to be out , It could hardly bo
expected that there would bo very much ac
tivity In the produce district. In addition to
the hindrance ) from unfavorable weather Is
the fact that the < | iimllty ; of Imttur , eggs and
poultry coming to market Is very IlKht. Tak
ing everything Into consideration tbo market
could not very well bo otherwise than dull.
lluttor Is becoming almost an unknown arti
cle In this market , especially good butter. It
the season hot ween hay and grass , and until
grass comes there Is not much prospect of an
Incroiibo In the receipts or a decrease In the
price. Heports from the country liullcnto that
the grass is commencing to start , and that It
will not bo long before new butter will com
mence' to arrive.
The egg situation Is , to say the least , pe
culiar. The market , In the country has been
advancing and track buyers have been strong
buyeis. In the menimhllo tbo market hero
has remained stationary. Chicago buyers
huvo been picking up a good many eggs In Ne
braska and have had much to do with keeping
tin the market In the country. The market In
Chicago , however , Is not so strong a.s It was a
short time ago.
Poultry Is also very scarce and high but the
lilgh prices do not appear to cause any mate
rial Incieasu In tbo receipts. Everything In
the way of chickens Is picked up quickly on
There were no fresh receipts of strawborrle.s
to speak of. The llrct shipment of berries
from Arkansas Is e.xpected In on Krldav. Tbo
general trult market U quiet owing to'tho ab-
boneo of warm weather which Is necessary 10
Htlmiibito the demand. No ono wants to eat

Ni\v YOHK , Apill 20. The stormy wiSathor
was against much trade In dry goods on the
spot , though there were more buyers around
who had been attracted to the largo auction
sale of Indigo lilue.s. The situation , however ,
was unchanged , except that the re.sult of the
auction sale referred to was felt to bo beno-
llcl J to tbo tone of the market. About 1,300
caM's of Algoniiuln Indigo prints were oflurcd
and guaranteed by the auctioneers to bo per
fect In every way , all defective pieces having
been withdrawn.
It was not expected that oven under thcso
circumstances the goods would bring over 5c
any way. The llrst case sold for 5'ic and
shortly after the prlco made advanced to 54o ! ,
then to 5" . c and single-case lots sold at 5'c.
A prominent printer was the principal buyer.
Whatever slunlllcanco was attached to this
fact the result was a benellt to the market , as
It was surprising. Many others as well as job
bers were bidders at the sale.

NEW VOIIK , April 20. The stock speculation
was feverish and unsettled again today by tbo
same causes which have operated against the
market for weeks past. The uncertainty In
regard to the treasury policy , thu strength of
sterling oichange , the talk ot heavy gold on-
gageuienU and the signs of Increased strin
gency In money nil tended to uii'oltlo thn
vlewt of holders of stocks At the name time
the be urn were emboldened to mitko a more
vigorous attack UIHIII xuchstocka as they know
to m unprotected.
Taken altogether the losses were by no
means heavy. Missouri I'aclllc fell olT ' 4 per
cent , National Cordage preferred 3 per cent ,
Lake Shore 2"i PIT cent , Manhattan 2H per
cent , ( lencrnl Electric Pi per cent and West
ern rnlnn in percent. The remainder of the
IM yielded < i H percent. A numberof shares
advanced > ( nl per cent during the morning ,
but later on In sympathy with stocks lust
named rallied. Just previous to the close
there was a recovery of from U to N percent
from the lowest on'rcpurts , which proved to be
well founded , that Secretary Carlisle would
COIIKI out with an olllclnl statement In regard
to his policy this evening. In n majority of
Instances the not declines today were U per
cent. This Is explained by the fact that out
siders were attracted by the low prices and
were buyers on all the reactions. Among the
specialties , Tonnt"sseo Coal ft Iron preferred ,
broke 18 points , Edl nn Illuminating 4 > i per
cent and Hlchmond Terminal preferred 3 tier
cent to 20. Later EdNon Illuminating rallied
2'i per cent. The market closed steadier In
tone.

CHICAGO , 111. , April' 20. [ Sn.3clil Telegram
to TUB Dr.E.l In spite of the wet weather
and the rather full supply the tonn uf the cit- :
tle market I'umained'vllim. The demand bu-
eamenetjvq very soon after thu opening and
maintained a fair degree of activity to the
end at from $2.00 to i$4 for inforlor.to choice
cows and holfor.s , at , from 11.75 to J3.7G for
bulls , from $4 to $0.10 for common to extra
steers , and from $2 to $4.80 for Texas cattle.
Texas cattle were In decreased supply and
were strong.
There- was an excited hog market. Thn sup
ply was not nearly largo enough to 1111 the
orders and Under thu' most spirited bidding
prices shot upward to the extent of 15c per
100 Ibs. Thuro was scarcely any lot of hogs
so poor as not tn hj salable at over
$7 , and the greater part , of the olfer-
Ings brought from $7.25 to $7.40 , light
going principally at from $7.25 to $7.30.
mixed and mediums at from $7.30 to $7.40 ane
heavy weights largely at from $7.40 to $7.50.
Everything was grabbed up as fast as dumped
from the cars and by 9 o'clock business was
practically over for the day. The extreme
i nngo of sales was from $5 to $7.55. Culls and
little pigs sold at from $5 to $0.75 and $2.G5
was paid for u few cholco medium weights.
The close was firm.
1'rlces of sheep were steady at the slight
reduction nutud yesterday , poor to cholco
elllng at $4.25 to $0 , and poor to choice lambs
at $5.00. There was n , good demand at that
rangu and although the oll'erlngs were In bad
shape. , their lleecus being full of water , there
was a pretty good clearance. Texas sheep
were quoted at from $4 to $5.50. They con-
stltuto a liberal proportion of the current ar
rivals.

Health Commissioner Somors 1ms served n
notice upon President Powell and the mem

that the Hoard of Health will not permit
the school board to put In any of the school
buildings either the Smoad system of dry
earth closets or tiny other system similar in
character. Dr. Homers' notice calls atten
tion to the fact that the city attorney has

"A source of financial aid for us this year. "
says the St. Louis Globo-Ucmocrat , "which
has not beep mentioned , but which is worth
considering , is the approaching Columbian
fair. American tourists spend In Europe
every year from $00.000,000 to $100,000,000 ,
without any material offset trom expendi
tures by European tourists here. This year
the fair will keep thousands of Americans at
homo who would otherwise go abroad , and
send tens of thousands of Europeans her
who under ordinary conditions would stay
away. These changes will tell in our favor
In the movement of money to and fro be
tween the United States and Europe. "
The 40,000 souvenir quarter-dollars which
congress authorized to bo minted for the
Hoard of Lady Managers of the World's
Fair will be issued , it Is expected , by May 1
These coins nro of peculiar interest for sev
eral reasons. In some respects the Isabella
quarter is a much greater novelty than the
Columbian half-dollar , as the coins bearing
the Spanish queen's portrait are much more
limited in number. Ono of the special
features of the now coin is that H is the llrst
issued by this government to bear the portrait
trait of a woman. Other coine oear ideal-
jzod representations of the fair sex , but this
is the llrst to bo honored by an authentic re
production of a particular feminine face.
Samples of the admission tickets to the
World's fair have just been struck oft' by tbo
American Bank Note company , which has a

plasters. " There are four tickets , each
of which palls for a single admission at any
tlmo during the World's fair. Different
colors are used in each variety. Ono bears a
handsome vignette of Washington ; another
of Abraham Lincoln ; the third au ideal head
of an Indian , and the fourth a portrait of
Columbus. The vignettes are on the loft
side of the tickets , while on the right is en
graved "World's Columbian Exposition , Chi
cago. Admit the bearer 1st May to 30th Octo

That British journalism cannot bo charged
with any lack of public spirit it is well
known , and the latest exemplification of the
fact is as interesting as it is gigantic. The
proprietors' of the Dundee Weekly News ,
impressed with an idea of the advantages
which might bo derived from a better knowl
edge by British working men of the social
and physicial conditions of life In America ,
and conceiving that not a little could bed
d mo in this direction to raise the quality of
skilled labor , have arranged to send out an
expedition of working men to the World's
fair. The proprietors of the News bear the
whole cost of what they call "A Tour ot
Observation in America , " and the composi
tion of the expedition is in the hands of the
working classes of Great Britain.

About tnrco years ago the city council ap
propriated J.VJ per month to ho used as a
fund for the detection of Infringements of
tbo law by liquor dealers. It was provided ,
however , that no part of this should
bo spent In buying drinks or In any way
Inducing the dealers to break the law.
Recently the pollco commissioners re
quested the council to strike off the proviso ,
In order that the money mlcht ho used In
detecting siloon men violating the Sunday
and closing laws. The council fulled to see
It in that light , and adopted without a dis
senting vote the police committee's recom
mendation that the resolution stand in Us
original form.

City Council \Vlll Mutorl.Ol.r llndnrn Tin-It
Chtlmt for I.Idle Work.
Some of the appraisers who have been
drawing pay from the city for a weol
while doing a day's work will soon recelva
a setback. It has dawned upon a majority
of the counellmcn that the fees are out
rageously largo , and steps will bo taken to
correct the ovll.
At the. last meeting thrco Items were
stricken from the appropriation ordinance In
favor of ai'praiaers , Ono Item was for
$ -'K < , $15 for the chairman and S'J ' each for the
other two. 'I'ho chairman worked three
days and the other two appraisers three
days each in determining the damages aris
ing by reason of widening Nineteenth street
from Haiti-run to Oastclhir. a distance or
three blocks. Also on grading Hickory street
from Fifth to Sixth streo'.N. ono block ,
tlio bill of the appraisers amounted to $1.1 ,
three days work for the chairman utul twofer
for each of the other two.
A claim that caused c'ouncllman Munro to
protest was for determining the damages
arising by reason of opening IxK'iisl street
from Twentieth to ' ' -
Tsventy-'I'-st street , ono
block , which required the eh.unnan to labor
for seven days and the oth'-r two for four
days. The appraisers' bills amounted to f-IS ,
fc'Jlfortho chairman and § 1eiuh for the
other two members. The l-'lfth - ward coun
cilman could not see how It was possible for
three appraisers to put in a week in deter
mining the damages arising by reason of
opening up a street for a distance of 0110
block.
Another Instance was widening Ham-rot * ,
street from Tenth to Eleventh , and the
chairman got In three davs work and the
others two days each at $ ' 100 per day for
looking over one bloeic and agreeing upon
damages. While the eoimcilmen were dis
cussing the matter It was sinrgestcd that
the fees received by the appraisers were get
ting to boa very prolttablo source of In
come , and that It was tlmo to call a halt ,
which was done by repudiating the three
last claims for fees that were presented.
