CHICAGO , AUK. II. Corn went tearing
again today , ( lie Iowa crop report furnishing
( lie bullish Influence.Vlicat was buoyed up
by tlio reports of the heavy export business
done at the seaboard yesterday. Alsa on
rumors that as much as 100 boat loads wore
worked' for export today. September wheat
closed lo higher at Baftc , September corn
3l4c higher at GGc , and September oats % c
higher at 30'ic. '
Provisions closed firm at a good advance.
In wheat there was a very fair trade , al
though closing was rather ( julct. Tlio feel
ing devekpcd at the start was weak , but
Was of short duration and tlio market after-
Wtrd ( exhibited a good deal cf strength , much
of which was maintained. Initial trades
wcro at from Vic to Vfcc loss and sold down
from ' , 0 to lie , changed some end closed
steady. The early decline and weak opening
was due to tlio action of corn , the rains
and large receipts , ell of which had depress
ing tendencies , and was further depressed
by the Italian crop report , which stated
that the yield In that country was nbovo the
average. Offerings , however , were not very
liberal , while the demand at the decline was
very fair and Improved later. Influenced
largely by the heavy clearances at the sea
board and reports of fresh export business
at Now York , 121 loads being reported since
yesterday. A prominent c-rn speculator was
credited with being a liberal purchaser , and
this added some strength to tlio market.
Cables wcro also higher and outside markets
wore firmer , especially New York. Local
receipts were much heavier than expected.
A large local short line wan claimed to have
been covered , and this gave a good degree of
steadiness to the situation.
Corn was act vc , prices changing frequently
within from 2c to 3c range. Tlio tone
at the start was weaker and Initial trades
wcro the tminc to Ic under the llnal figure ! *
of yesterday , and gradually worked up Hie
for May and UVic for September frcm thu
Inside quotations , eased off V&c , advanced
I'/ic , and closed firm. The early weakness
and selling at the start was attributed to the
rains which occurred In Iowa , Kansas , Ne
braska and Illinois , and to the crop report
from the last ncmcd state , which was rather
bearish , and which announced the yield
l.kcly to equal that of last year. The trade
was principally local. At first the market
was Inclined to sell lower , but cfferlngs were
quite readily taken and the market gradually
hardened and sold Up sharply when the lown
weekly weather bulletin was posted , which
vas qulto bullish , predicting an area of less
xhan 0,000,000 acres and a yield of one-third
of en average crop. Domestic markets were
firmer and cables lower.
Oats were weak at the start , but firmed
up latr on K-od buying and the strength
In corn. The range for September was I'.fcc.
Provisions were active and generally firm
on covering by shorts , light hog receipts and
the strength In corn. Compared with last
night September pork Is 30c higher , Septem
ber lard , 12V c higher , and September ribs
20c higher.
Freights slow , with charters for wheat ate

but the receipts are move than double lmt

STOCKS AND 1IONDS.
Outslilo Kpceiiliitoi-s Tuken In by the Inside
< } i > ng- oil Mm Street.
NEW YORK , Aug. 14. Wall street has
again proven It Is not entirely safe to take
It for granted that speculative movements
op the Stock exchange are certain to be made
up on lines which public opinion might re
gard as a logical sequence of crop condi
tions. As a matter of fact , the street finds
delight In furnishing surprises to Its habi
tues from which no profit over accrues to
the outsider. Last evening the sluro market
closed strong and there wan a buoyancy to
the late trailing which gave promise of In
creased strength. The tariff bill had been
passed by both houses of the national legis
lature on the lines laid down by the senate ,
the bears were Jubilant , trust stocks In bad
npute , the crops reports were more favor
able , rain had fallen In the corn belt , the
grangers were being bought back by the
sellers of a few lays ago , the general situa
tion was Improving , sterling exchange was
easier and the flow of gold was about to
turn around. These arc conditions which
confronted Wall street this morning , and , as
If to give a still more rosy hue to the situa
tion , the London market became strong , but
there was good foreign buying orders on the
board at the opening. It wua to bq expected
that llrat prices made should bo made higher
than those of the night , and , as a rule , they
were. Some of the shorts were urgent to
cover and there was not a little buying for
the long account. The amateurs doubtless
believed n steady and healthy appreciation
In values had set In , but the professional
speculators , the clique ot Insiders , were not
ready yet to let the market get out of their
hands and the usual tactics were employed to
check the upward movement , which had
sot In with force.
The Sugar pool , most powerful of all the
Wall street combines , took a turn at ham
mering tlielr'own shares. The secretary of
the trust gave out a letter he had written ,
denying Congressman Wilson's statement
that the company had purchased (112,000,000
worth of raw sugar , and putting their pur
chases at only $12,000,000 , thereby cutting
down thu alleged prospective prollts to a
comparatively Insignificant sum. U wan
rumored , too , that the free sugar bill was
dangerous.
An early advance of 1 per cent
on the stock was quickly wiped
out and a break of 6 % per
cent was engineered with Intervening rallies ,
BO as to let holders of the shares down easy.
A big stop loss order was caught on the way
down , for which , very likely , the clique was
gunning. At the lower figures there was
good buying and a recovery was made to
107 , % per cent , the closing prices being
H per cent lower and U per cent below the
closing &alo ot yciterday. Sugar pr ferred
loit yt P r cent. The grangers opened
except for uurllngton , which was unchanged
The gains wcrt fractional , except In St. I'aul
which was up 1U Per cent. The whole groui
took an early dip In common with the res
of the market , the entire list becoming mi
settled and fluctuating widely In many casci
and with much frequency. The Irrcgularltj
continued until the late Afternoon , when i
strong tone was Infused Into the trading am
rallies were made which wiped out the earlj
lotsee , and , In a majority of Instances , ad
vaticca were recorded on the day's transac
tlons.
The bond market was strong and active nl
day and most of the Issues traded In macli
gains ,
The Evening Post says : The market was
Irregular , It showed ctrcngth in spots am :
an undertone that waa firm , despite the real'
Nations. The sentiment on the whole was
bullish. Ilrokers arc Inclined to regard the
reaction this morning as only natural and
speak hopefully as to the future. The Indus ,
trials were the feature. Distillers sold UF
two points nt the opening. Its reaction was
on celling by brokers who missed their mar
ket , owing to their presence In other securltj
crowds. The buying and selling In the
grangers was about equally divided. The
former was based on the Improved condi
tions of the crops because of recent rains ,
The latter was due to bear operations
The Post's London cable says : The Im
provement In all the stock market continues ,
but dealings In Americans ore still mainly
professional , notwithstanding the passage ol
thu tariff bill , which caused a small boom
this morning. Prices closed Vi to % per cent
under the best on realizations , but the under
tone was firm. South Americans were
strong , the public buying considerable. The
Greek bondholders , at their meeting today ,
declined for the present to accept Trlcoupaa
proposal of a settlement of the debt. The
matter stands ndjourncd. Gold flows In anil
further largo amounts are expected from
India and Australia.

The receipts today consisted of 2,000 cat
tle , 10GOO hogs and 3d sheep , as against
2,300 cattle nnd 13,600 hogs on Tuesday of last
week. For the two days this week the re
ceipts amount to 3,050 cattle , 16,700 hogs and
SOO sheep , as against 4,230 cattle , 21,985 hog
and 1,870 sheep for the corresponding days
of last week. This shows a decided de
crease this week on stock of all kinds.
CATTLE The offerings of cattle were con
siderably In excess of yesterday's receipts
and there was considerable Inquiry for the
more desirable grades of corn-fed steers.
The packers all wanted a few head and they
bought up what suited them nt good , strong
prices. One bunch of 1,214-lb beeves brought
$4.45 , while there wcro quite a number of
loads that went above $4. There was more-
doing In the market for butchers' stock than
for some days past. The receipts were not
especially large , but there was quite a showIng -
Ing of fair to good cows nnd heifers In the
yards. The local buyers took hold better
than they have been doing on most days
since the commencement of the strike and
the market was active and stronger nil
around. The market on veal calves is very
low , ns will be nuted from the sales. A
few loads of stockers and feeders changed
hands , but the general market on that class
of stock Is slow nnd dull , the demand being
very limited. Prices were not particularly
changed from yesterday. The bulk of the
salca were made at ? 2 to $2.25 , with n few
head at $2.50. Representative sales :

HOGS This was a great day for the
sellers In tlio hog market , as everything ap
peared to como their way. Reports from
other markets were favorable , provisions
wuro up anil there was both a good local and
a shipping demand. The shippers wanted
good hogs nnd were willing to pay for them ,
and the market opened active at the start
and all the way from IGc to 25c higher than
yesterday. The majority of the good loads
went at $5 to * 5.25 , with a top at $0.35 , while
the light and light mixed loads of fair quality
brought $ -1.80 to ? 5. The underweight stuff
nnd pigs sold as usual way down as compared
with the better loads , the range being wide.

CHICAGO , Aug. II. Sales of cattle wore at
nominally fair price" . There was firmness In
good to choice grades nnd weakness In other
descriptions , but not n quotable variation any
where. Ilecclpts were llghl and the demand fair
nt from Jl to T2.60 for natives , from tl.f.0 lo 11.10
for weslern rangers nnd from $1.2. " > to J3.30 for
Texns cattle. The supply consisted of about
2.COJ natives , 2,000 westerns nnd 1.000 Texas ,
aboul all of which were closed out before noon.
The ndvnnco yesterday of H4e In the London
market stimulated the demand for good entile
nnd the tendency In lhat class l still upwnrd , as
there Is no doubt nboul there being a short
supply.
A brisk trade nt higher prices was t1 : situa
tion In hogs. Wllh fresh nrrlvnls of barely 13.-
000 head , holders at once look a linn position.
They Insisted upon an advance of lOo nnd got
It , the best llghl weights going to } 3.3i and J5.10 ,
and from $5.65 to $ r > .co bHng paid for fancy
heavyKvcn those prices did not check the
an lor nf buyers , ami hy the middle of the fore
noon decent lots h.ul changed hands at least
once , nnd the cry was sllll for mote. Within
the last week prices have ndvanced from lOc to
Ific , nnd since August 1 there has been n gnln of
from 33c to 45e. The bulk of the day's sales
were nt from J5.25 to J5.50 , though there were
many Irades nl from 15 to tl.lC , and a few nt
lower llgures.
Sheep prices were fnlrly stendy nt from Jl In

for good to extra. There wan a light supply and
a fair demand nl lhal range. The lamb market

CHICAGO , Aug. 13. Strapped down lo
his bed , Imprisoned by bars and locked door
In a barren room on the fourth floor of the
\Vashlngtonlan homo "I'lunger" IM Pnrd
rldgtf , who yesterday threw the Hoard o
Trade Into a turmoil by fighting with a door
keeper , Is undergoing a most rigorous treat
merit for alcoholism. He was taken to the
homo yesterday by his con , who was asslstci
by several friends. The nervy speculator hai
to bo conveyed to thu homo In a close car
rlagc and was placed In charge of the doc
tors only by main forco. Ho became vlolcn
when ho was being prepared for a protractet
stay and It required four attendants to carrj
him upstairs and Install him In one of the
cell rooms which are reserved for the wors
patients. Pardrldge Is ono of the most prom
Incut of the lloard of Trade operators. Ac
counted a multi-millionaire , the proprietor
of ono of the largest dry goods stores in the
city , and an operator of remarkable nerve
he Is a unique llgure on the Moor of the
board. For months ho has been on the bear
side of the wheat market and his winnings
on 'change for the last year arc said to read
Into seven figures. Pardrldgc has frcqucntl )
of late worshipped freely at the shrine o
nacchus , and has created several scenes 01
'change. A few days since he appeared 01
the floor In an unsteady condition and threv ,
money broadcast about the pit , raining sue )
an uproar that ho was suspended for sixty
days.
Yesterday he attempted to go on the floor
and , after a fierce fight with a doorkeeper
was finally curried from the building. Ai
the Washlngtanlan home for Inebriates , Mr
Pardrldge succeeded In creating as much
excitement among the inmates today as he
did on 'change yesterday. Immediately upon
Ms arrival he was handcuffed and placed In
a box-like apartment , with three blank walls
and a grated window left to his gaze.Vhcn
the physicians and guards left him , however ,
he put at naught their efforts to tic his hands
and feet. One little article on his person
was overlooked by the custodians In searchIng -
Ing him a largo locket atttachcil 10 his
watch chain. When the guards left him he
manased to squirm around so as to reach
and unfasten the locket. .This * contained a
small , sharp knife , with which he proceeded
to cut his bonds. He soon parted the leather
handcuffs and next broke the leather strap
tied around his feet. Pardrldgu jumped up
to his window and yelled down at the crowd :
OFFERED MONEY LIBERALLY.
"I'm Ed Pardrldge ; you all know me. They
are trying to rob or kill me. I'll give $500
to the man who will get my lawyer. For
God's sake help me. "
As he continued his entreaties , he grew
more and more excited , and said : "If none
of you will get my lawyer for $500 , I'll give
you $ GOO , $700 , $ SOO , $930 , $1,000. Hurry
up , for the love of heaven. They are going
to kill me. I'll give any one half my for
tune If he'll get my lawyer. "
The attention of the guards was attracted
by the fearful yelling and two of them went
to the "plungers" room to subdue him. The
latter , when he heard steps In the hall , made
ready to brain some of his captors. He stood
with a heavy wooden chair uplifted In his
hands. As the door opened and the head of
the first guard appeared he brought his
weapon down with a crash. The guard
dodged Just in time and escaped the blow.
He came very near being brained , though ,
and he pounced upon Pardrldge and with
the aid of his companions threw the
"plunger" on. his bed and bound him to It.
The employes say that Pardrldge's Is the
worst case they have ever had to handle ,
and they were all much relieved when he
had finally been strapped down. The guards
were afraid to go near the "plunger" during
the night , but his struggle before he was
subdued had weakened him and he collapsed
utterly this morning. This forenoon his only
ilemonstratlons were a few yells and a series
3f warwhoops , which could be distinctly heard
nil over the house. This stopped and he
then mumbled , talked to himself and then
fell Into a sort of sullen stupor and went to
sleep.
Superintendent Somcrvlllo was not In
clined to be reticent about his patient today.
"Yes , " said he , "Mr. Pardrldge is confined
liero now and will probably be forced to re
main with us some time. He Is suffering
from a severe attack of alcoholism , and will
require a long course of treatment before ho
will bo cured. It is our belief that wo shall
sffect an ultimate and permanent cure , but
lust now he Is not In a very encouraging
condition. He cannot be seen at all , oven by
Ills relatives. Neither his wife nor his son
Is permitted to go near him. Ho is by no
means tame and that Is the reason In Itself
ror Isolating him. But It would make him
ivcrse to see his relatives. "
"Does his mind seem nt all effected ? "
"Yes ; In fact his trouble now seems to bo
moro duo to a temporary derangement than
inythlng else. "
This afternoon J. E. Dsakln appeared be
fore Judge Dunn with a petition for a writ
if habeas corpus to compel T. Smnmerfleld ,
nanagcr of the Washlngtonlan homo , to pro-
luce Pardrldge In court. The petition re-
: lted that the noted Hoard cf Trade plunger
was being held a prisoner In the Washlng-
; onlan homo against his will. Judge Dunn
{ ranted the writ and made It returnable-
1:30 : o'clock tomorrow evening.
Pardrldgo left the Washlngtonlan home
tonight In charge of friends. Mr. Summer-
leld says his treatment was that usually ac-
: orded patients.
