L 0 THR OMAHA DAILY HEE ; WEDNESDAY , AUGUST 22 , 18SM. COMMERCIAL AND FINANCIAl Eoartl of Trndo 8reoulntors Were Anxioui to Euy Yesterday , WHEAT WAS SOMEWHAT IRREGULAf Curly Wculinci * Win Attributed Lnrgelj to the IlllnoU Urtip Id-port , Which the Ylt-lil tliu 1'ourth Largtiit on Ilecord , ' CHICAGO , Aug. 21. Hoard of Trade spec ulators were anxious to buy today , nnd ni a result the grain markets finished will ; Gains all around. Wheat closed % c higher , corn IVic higher , and oats ic higher. Pro visions closed with but little change , aftei an early advance. Wheat was somewhat Irregular , with price changes rather fre < | ticnt , within IVic range. The market wns steady In tone , Initial trades were at from Vic to Vic de cline , nt from G4tc ; to C < 5c for September , and Bold off nt once from % c to V4c more , ad- , vanccd % c , worked hack % c , then advanced lV4c , held steady , and Cl scd with September at from CGVJc to 65c. The early weakness was attributed largely to the Illinois crop report , which made the yield 41,350,000 hu. , or the fourth largest on record , nnd also to the favorable crop news from abroad. Out- nldo markets were easier , nnd were also something of a factor. The receipts fell off considerably from the estimates , only 4GU cars coming' In , against 700 expected , nnd cables wcro up V6 < 5 all around , which , while bullish , wns offset by the foregoing. The market sold up rather sharply whsn corn showed up strong. Private cables quoted a small Inquiry , but prices V&d higher , and other cables read wheat 3d lower , but Inac tive ; weather showery. There wns rather free tiling later In the day , which , together with the closing cables showing n weaker t"iie , caused prices to recede to about Inside figures. The estimates for tomorrow showed a still further falling off of 3G5 cars. There wag a rumor that the Roumanian govern ment had restricted the exports of maize , owing to the shortness of the crop on ac count of the liberal export business , and this produced covering by shorts. There was considerable churning of the corn market during the first hours of the session. Prices changed rapidly without the accompaniment of any great amount of bus iness. 'There was some demand for local shorts , and not enough offered to supply them until they had bid the price upIc per mi. for May nnd lc for September above the prices current near the opening for those deliveries. When thnt demand was satisfied prices began to settle back again , and before noon they were both down to the level of the opening quotations. Shortly thereafter an other spurt took prices back up to near the highest point of the earlier bulge. September was dlfllciilt to buy when wanted , and occa sionally It was equally hard to sell. It sold around the opening at from 53c to BUfcc , and from that up to G5c , then off to 54 ic , then up until It torched 55V4c. It closed at E5c. E5c.Oats experienced another day of active trading and higher values. Corn continued to Influence prices , and quite an advnnc ? wns shown. Buying was good from all sources. September started Vic up from the closing prices of yesterday , at 30c , declined to 30Hc , advanced to from 30V c to 30c , and closed nt 30T4c. Receipts of hogs were only 13,000 head , and .good grades were quoted as In demand at higher prices. The strength In earn gave the provision market its opening direction. The fluctuations In pork followed the course of the grain markets for n while , but In the latter part of the session the packers sold freely nnd Independently of strong grain markets nnd steadiness In lard nnd ribs. Jan uary pork opened at $13.G5 , compared with $13.00 nt the close yesterday. It advanced to $13G7V4 , and then dropped gradually until at the close $13.55 wus its selling value. Lard for January closed with a gain of 2Vfcc , and ribs nrc unchnngcd. Freights Rates firm ; Ic for corn to Buf falo , nnd 74c for oats to Port Huron. The leading futures ranged as follows : _ Articles. | Open. fjjuTii. | Lovr. | \Vl.catTNo. 1 A UK * 6-1M BIH E4U sept ; . . . . . . 6SH Dec CUM rwi "HI May Oil Ccrn No , ! ! . .

The market today was active , but the sellers were In excess of the buycru , and there was considerable liquidation , as well ns sales for the short account. The' upward movement , which wns quite strong last week , received a check by reason of Influences which wcro larccly the result of manipulation by cliques. At the opening prices were firmly held and there were Bomo sharp advances , but n celling movement In Sugar , In addition to breaking the price of that stock , unsettled the rest ot the list. Ilcforc 11 o'clock speculation had assumed a firmer tone , nnd a remarkable advance of 3 per cent wns recorded In New Knglnnd certificates , fifth assessment paid. Distilling , which was advanced % per cent and lost the gain , sold up 1 % per cent , to 20 % . Sugar , which had sold up % per cent nnd broken U per cent , rase 1 % per cent ; Pullman sold up IVi per cent , and most of the other shares traded In a fraction. Dur ing the next hour the active list was weak , New England certificates losing l'i per cent , and the other shares the greater part of the Improvement. In the specialties , however , there wcro some notable gains , notably In Wheeling & Lake Krle preferred , St. Paul & Dtiluth , Chicago Junction , Minnesota Iron , Oregon .Improvement . and Colorado Coal. During the afternoon , except for I'ullman , Pacific Mall , Tobacco preferred and DCS Molnes & Fort Dodge , the trading was prac tically all on the hear side , and speculation closed weak In tone. Distilling was forced down 2 per cent , the loss on. the day amountIng - Ing to Vi per cent. The Evening Post says : Today's market Indicated that the upward movement which has been In progress for a week has reached the turning point. The tendency on Satur day and yesterday wns towards a broadening of speculation. Today It was In the direction of contraction , with the professional , element distinctly In evidence. It Is seldom that the street has been so full of points on the ac tive stocks , notably the Industrials were very sensitive In transactions. The latter con trolled the majority of tradings , which were largely of a professional nature. They were stronger than the railroad shares. Iteports that the president had decided to ve'o the tariff bill were used to depress this stock , and they also affected the general market unfavorably , the decline in which ranged from \ \ to 2'/4 per cent , the latter In General Electric , 1 % per cent In Burling ton , 1U per cent In Northwestern and Chicago cage Oas , 1 per cent In Hock Island and Great Northern preferred , % per cent in Union Pacific , and % per cent In Western Union and United States Cordage. There were some notable exceptions to the condi tion of the market , and the shares which show the greatest advances are Pacific Mall , Des Molnes & Fort Dodge preferred , Colorado Coal and Lead preferred , 1 per cent. The bond market was heavy during the morning , but became better In the afternoon , closing Irregular.

CATTLE Today's offerings of , entile con sisted largely of westerns , there being only a few corn fed natives on sale. The general market did not show much change , prices remaining In about the same notch as yen- tcrday. In some cases sellers reported that they got n little more money1 for their cattlu than would have been possible on yesterday's market. One bunch of l,27C-lb. natives brought $1. Local killers wcro active buyers of good butchers' stock and there was a bet ter feeling In the market for desirable cows and heifers , though the market could not be quoted any higher. Kvcn the commoner grades , owing to the light supply and the active demand , were firm at yesterday's prices. Some good cows weighing under 1,000 Ibs. brought $1.50. The feeling In the market for stockcrs and feeders was a little licit ! r , though not especially higher. The Im proved tone to the market was due apparently to the llglit r cell ts and tj t ° c fct that there was some little Inquiry from Ihc country , which was fully up to theofferings. . In spile of Ihe short corn crop , qulle a good many feeders are going out Inlo the country. Some of them are going to Missouri and Kansas , us well as Into Iowa and Nebraska , and some wilt be put on feed Immediately.

Pullman Kmployr * Compelled In I.lviIr I'lllliimn llcHHCK .MotlioillKt MlnUter' * " Testimony An ICn In Iniiiiitriilll.Vt CIIICAUO , Aug. 21. Carroll , editor of tin Eight Hour Herald , was the first wltnes ; called by the strike commission today. Mr Carroll told of Ihe efforls of the civic fcdc ration , of which ho Is a member , to sotth the Pullman strike. He was Informed by tin 1'ullman olllclals , he said , thai they had nolh Ing to arbitrate , nnd for this reason Ihc fcdc ration accomplished nothing. The wltncsi said that hard times were the cause of tin railroad as well as other recent strikes , am thought that manufacturers In times of bnsl ness depression , should give their employe : the benefits of , the profits reaped In gooi tlnus. lie sold he believed compulsory nr bllratlon , applied to quasi-public Industries would be beneficial , and read a letter from i friend In New Xculand showing the lipuellcla results of government ownership of rail , roads and telegraph. Malcolm McDowell , a newspaper reporter told of the overturning of cars at Pullman He said that the mob nt that point was com posed of outside men , mainly foreigners , and that there were no railroad strikers In the disorderly crowd. Nov. L. M. U'lckmim. pastor of the Swedish Methodist church nt 1'ullman , was emphatic In his denunciation of the methods of the I'ullman company. "When business gete slack , " he said , "the company's employes living outside of Pullman are ordered to move Into the comp.iny'H houses In peril of losing their positions. Some of the men have at tempted to buy houses on the Installment plan , but this Is discouraged , as such men arc always the first to bs laid eft when the force Is reduced. The men are unfairly treated In various ways. I know of one Instance when a man was In jured In the shops nnd unfair means were taken to prevent a damage suit. The man was taken to the hospital and later I saw a sworn statement , purporting to be signed by him , and which he said the accident was entirely unavoidable. I knew that paper to hnvo been a forgery , fcr on the date It was made the man was unable to write and could not have signed his name. "One of the worst features of the Pull man system of house renting Is the Im morality which It encourages. Many of the workmen are compelled to rent rooms to help out their meager Incomes. The houses are so arranged that the roomers must pass through the family sleeping apartments and as a result the morality cf Pullman Is much below that of suwound ng towns. There Is no way far the worklngmen to avoid this , as many of them are practically compelled to live In the company's hcuses. " Hey Ilaker , a Chicago reporter , was called upon for an account of the riot nt Ham mond. Mr. Uakcr stated that he was In the midst of the mob and saw no A. H. U. men or strikers , the crcwd being made up of toughs and outsiders. He said that shortly before the United States troops fired , a small body of men , surrounded by women , children and other spectators , attempted to overturn some Pullman cars. Without warning , the witness declared , the troops fired , killing and wounding several people , all of whom were Innccent spectators. Mr. Baker said that at no time during the trcuble did ho see a railroad man or member of the A. II. U. In the mobs. John C. Donnelly , chief deputy United States marshal , testified. "As to the acts of violence , were they committed by railroad men , so far as yon know ? " he was asked. "No , sir ; all the violence nnd burning of cars that I saw nt the stock yards was done by a lot of tough 'kids' about 18 years old or a little older. " XKIV KNULANI ) TKXriLK TIU-UP. Outcome of thn Strlkn Depends Now mi the Cloth Mill * . NEW BEDFORD , Mass. , Aug. 21. The mills of this city are completely tied up today , even those which were running yes terday being closed. The Howland corpora tions have not yet resumed work , but un doubtedly will within a. few days , as an agreement has been reached by the corpora tions. The spinners' executive committee are today devoting their efforts to getting the Bennett and Columbia mills , which make thn same line of goons as ttiu threJ Howland corporations , into line and from statements made privately by the ofllelals of these mills there is sonic reason to bellvo that the effort will be successful. The outcome of the strike now depends upon the cloth mills. Some of the treas urers are disposed to fight It out If It takes all winter , and they nss.rt that an agree ment has been reached whereby the mills are to be Indefinitely locked up , but on the other hand Individual treasurers arc quoted us saying that they look for an outlet to get out of the trouble and will be glad to nnd it gradually. The Bristol mill which was prosecuted in court recently for running on Saturday afternoons Is so loaded with orders that n gentleman very close to the management Bald tha' ' it could not think of shutting fur any length of time. It may bo , however , that even If the manu facturers finally concede the wage question the strike will not end very soon. The opera tives are Indignant at the evasion of the re cently passed particulars bill and at a mass meeting at the South park to day voted to make this an Issue of the strike and not to return to work until the particulars piovlded by law are furnished. The spinners' committee say they do not regard the Howland concession as a victory mil express the belief that It does not by any means end the strike , FALL niVER , Mass. . Aug. 21.

Ho was told that 2,130 families have been helped since ths beginning of the strike and that about $20,000 had been given the relief committee , all of which has been used. "I don't know lust what method I shall take to aid these men , " said the governor , "but something must bo done. I have written u letter to George. M. Pullman re garding the matttr.

With Increased facilities for running ; and reducing ores , It Is s.\fc to state that tha output of 1SD4 will he fur In excess"of that of 1S93 , and with the completion of projects now under way the coming year will find the 11111s the greatest gold producing district In the United States. The treatment of slllclous ores of the Black Hills Is now so thoroughly understood and so cheaply accomplished that one of the factors which for years past has restricted the gold output of this section has been brushed aside , and groups of claims , whoso owners but a short time ago despaired of ever benefiting from their possession are now contributing to the wealth and pros perity of the country. New discoveries nro being made almost every week , and the development of old claims progressing with earnestness and on Intelligent lines. The last discovery , which Is at present attracting n good deal of at tention , was made last week on the dlvldi between Cold Springs and Castle Creek. The ore , which Is free milling. Is n graylah- whlte quartz , honeycombed and stained with iron. It is Identical In character to that taken from the Old Abe mine , one of tha famous Homestake proup at Lead City. Tha ore body Is quite a large one and gives prom ise of developing Into something good. UXITltn UTATKS I'.ll'ti Till !

Ir requi sition papers or warrants for the arrest of General Antonio Ezeta and the three other refugees from San Salvador were dispatched from Washington on the llth Instant , as the authorities there have ltd the public to be lieve. It Is conceded that the warrants have been In San Francisco at least two days. Notwithstanding this fact. However , tbo gun boat Bcnnlngton , on which the refugees are prisoners , Is still cruising off shore. Thcra is every Indication that she Is to be kept at sea Indefinitely. This morning Lieutenant Stonuy came over from. Mar ? Island , char tered the tugboat Sea King and went to sea again with another big supply of fruit , veg etables and fresh meat for the Bcnnlngton , and Indicating that it is the government's Intention to keep the refugees outside tha three-mile limit nnd beyond the reach ot habeas corpus for at least a day or two. This strange delay Is a puzzle to the local federal authorities , who are all but certain that the necessary documents In the case have arrived from Washington arc now In the handa of the San Salvadorean officials hero. Th explanation Is that the local olllclals of the government of San Salvador , some of whom ire known to be friendly to the Bzetns , are still lighting among themselves. The presl- lenl of San Salvador appointed a new consul here on Saturday last , and It Is considered probable that the deposed consul , Yrlgoycn , who Is a close friend of the Ezetas and who liurrled off to New York recently to confer with Carlos Ezeta , has declined to deliver .he documents to his successor.
