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 :

NR\V YORK , Aug. 21. 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.

" 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. "

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. Five more
mills shut down today on account of the
strike and there ts a. decrease of fully 1,000
looms In the mills yet running.

CHICAGO , Aug. 21. Governor Altgeld
spent several hours today with a committee
] f citizens of Pullman who were called upon
to glvo him Information regarding the starv
ing strikers. 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. Until I have received
i reply I am not nt liberty to make the
contents of the letter public. "
It is probable that Governor Altgeld will

DKAinVOOD , S. I ) . . August 21. ( Special
to The lice. ) That the Illiick Hills have
during the past thirteen years helped swell
the world's wealth In the precious mctnl.i ,
nnd during that time have been no mean
contributor. Is shown from the followlnji
figures : The total gold nnd sliver product
of this section since 1SSI , to nnd Including ;
1S93 , aggregates $ I3.SC,377 ( ! , of which 112,050-
100 was in gold mil $ I.7SS77 ! ) In sliver. H
may also bo noted that tln > aggregate yield
of gold and silver In the lllnck Hills for the
year of 1S93 exceeded that of any preceding-
year , and was $111 , SOS In excess of the prod
uct of 181)2. ) The gold product for 1S93 was
$4.000,400 ; silver , $ I8t..i27. a total of1,187 , -
l > 27. . 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.

SAN FHANC1SCO , Cal. , Aug. 21. 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.
