GUARDIANSHIP Discussing Trust Companies, the New York Sun says: "In the matter of guardianships the Trust Comrany devotes the same attention to getting the best of everything it touchy for its ward. When no fixed sum U mentioned in a will to be raid for the infant's support, the company Roes to court and asks the court to say what amount 19 required to support and educate It ward. The court does the Investigating independent of the company. The company may suggest an amount, but the court decides on iu own Information. Sometimes when the amount is considered too low by the company, it manages to have it increased. In case of extraordinary expense, the ward has only to apoly to the company for the amount needed. The company presents the case to the court, and if the court Is satisfied it orders the money paid." The undersigned acts as guardian.

It wa3 another dull da" on the Stock r charge, and the general trend cf speculation w?s In the dircci'on cf lower luren. The cMef operators in the irvrket were tVr bear3 and the "on !lon? favored them. The seeming Irreconcilable uifferinees between Senate and Houre on tne tartir V I giving promise of an oxtend-. d session of Congress and thereby l:phi the znnncial and commercial ronui.rr.Iiy in a siaic of uncertainty, cannot bt rtirdcd a? ar. Inducement to buy s locks for a rise. The condition of the corn crop Is not such, according to the most favorable advices, as to lead to the opinion that grander roads will be tested severely as to rlcir carrying- capacity to bring It to market, dold shipments are still being mad, and the treasury gold reserve is declining with a steadiness which is looked on with disfavor, to say the least, by the financiers of the country and the financial officers of the government. But with all these unfavorable elements the stock market gives no evidence of inherent weakness. Particular stocks gave way under special influences affecting them alone and under the manipulation of cliques groups of stock depreciate In value, only to recover when the manufactured pressure to sell is removed. But no general liquidation Is in process, there Is no apparent desire on the part of holders of stocks to sacrifice them in the fear that the bottom is about to drop out of the market. On the contrary, while low?r values have been established the declines have been largely manlDuIated and it has required heavy short sales to bring out a small amount of long stock. It is a fact that many of the leading shares are now h?avily oversold, and in some of thera the short Interest is unyielding. For the past few days Sugar and the granger stocks have been the only ones in which there has been any active trading, and as a rule they have moved in opposite directions, sugar going down while the grangers were moving up. and vice versa. The grangers were weak on a selling movement, which was directed from Chicago, and principally against Burlington & Quincy. This stock broke l3 per cent, to 71?;. and close! within 4 of the lowest point touched. Rock Island was also offered down, receding 1U to 63H and recovering U.

In the rest of the shares traded in the movement was merely fractional. The market, which was irregular throughout the day, closed fairly steady at a partial recovery from the bottom figures. The bond market was heavy during the day and closed weak, the principal changes on the day being: Declines Union Pacific collateral trust sixes, 3: Pittsburg & Western firsts, 2?i; Toledo, St. Louis & Kansas City firsts, trust receipts, 2; Ohio & Mississippi, Springfield division firsts.

UIC.AL iH.I.Y AD PRODUCE. The .Mltlnnniiner Quiet Still Prevail In All Department. There Is no Improvement visible in general merchandise. Business Is still In a waiting attitude. The dry-goods people are opening up their fall stocks, and are looking forward hopefully for a good season's business. It Is noticeable that most of the fall patterns of prints and dress goods generally display black grounds, with figures mostly small in every possible shade of color. Increased firmness Is given to bleached cottons by the advance of ,4o in Lonsdale and Hope, which took place Aug. 1, and which restores prices to figures current at the beginning of the summer season. In groceries there Is no change. There Is some trade going on constantly, but the volume continues light and quotations steady. Trade in other departments Is steady, with a light business. In country produce, fruits and vegetables there is nothing new. Wheat is dull and neglected, and receipts are falling off sharply. Elevators here are full of grain, and many cars are sidetracked. Corn showed no change yesterday, but oats went off He Hay, also, showed a decline of $lfil.50 per ton. The receipts of grain were light, embracing only about 8,oiO bu of wheat, 3,JU0 bu of oats and 13.W0 bu of corn.

Special in Philadelphia Press. On the 1st of August next Andrew Durst, of Drums, will have been thirty years bedfast. He is now eighty-seven years of age. Although his hair is thin and white and a scant white beard covers his cheeks, apparently he is as hale and hearty as his son-in-law, 'Squire Gilmore, 'ho manages a large farm and provides comfortably for his family, including the invalid. For twenty-live years Mr. Durst has lived with his daughter at Drums. During that time' he has never gotten out of bed. and it Is seven years since he even sit up in bed. The circumstances surrounding the case are as extraordinary as such instances are rare. Prior to his prostration Mr. Durst was In good circumstances, and being well educated he never found it necessary to do menial labor. The only attempt he ever made to do hard work was at the advice of his physician, but after one day's trial he gave it up. The causes leading to his present condition, it seems, were complicated, but according to the statement of his relatives, a physician's ignorance was the prime cause of it. It appears that he had been troubled with headache and sleeplessness in his earlier life, and to relieve himself used narcotics, morphia principally. Naturally the habit grew upon him, and he purchased and administered the dose himself. This treatment evidently did not tend to Improve hL condition, but on the contrary the- necessity for narcotics became more pronounced and a constitutional ailment followed. He then lived in Sunbury, but his family was distributed through the Conyngham valley, inhere all of them were comfortably situated. It was while visiting some of these relatives that a doctor was called upon. He diagnosed the man's ailment according to his own idea, and in prescribing for him administered calonel. Relief seemed to come to the patient at once. The dosing of calonel was continued. The effects of this poisonous drug when its use Is continued is well known to medical science. Paralysis or total prostration Is sure to follow. If means of removing It from the system are not resorted to. This the friends of Mr. Durst claim, was neglected by the doctor. Whether It was ignorance or negligence, the result was the destruction of the man's life. The correspondent drove over to Drums the other day tnl calW on 'Souire Gilmore, in whose house the invalid lies. His daughter, Mrs. Gilmore, conducted the visitors to the sick room, where thev were joined by the 'Squire. The invalid was slightly elevated in bed by pillows and restlnc: on one elbow lightly. He was then suffering from a headache which hardly ever leaves him and his head was bandaged. Some years ago this pain in his head became so violent as to cause the back of his skull to oren. While not so severe since, the jain prevents him from sleeping, and nightlv opiates are given him for relief. Beyonl the Quantity necessary to induce sleep he has no further use of the drug durincr the day. Stranere to say, thirty years of constant ue in his present condition shows no ill effects. It is said that where calomel poisoning has com to the attention of medical science, and where the removal of it from the system has been neglected, the drug can be shaken from the bones of the victim aftfr death. In the present case the drug h-d taken suh a firm hold that when an efTort to remove it was made it was done without effect, and the poisoning influences had t'otten beyond control. There was no relief for him then. His lower limbs began to weaken. Slowly but surelv all power I 'ft then, and within a year after he had first been prostrated he was entirely helnless. The poison had permeated his whole system. For yor.rs he lav unable to turn or move himse'f in any wav. With the nil of powerful drugs given him in an effort to offset the effects of the calomel as far pj yossible he was relieved to .some extent, noticeably in his arms. Hi lower limb, however, gradual'.v wasted away until now thev appear olfled. His bot'v. too, has lost "all elasticity below his breast. Despite the invalid s absolute helplessjnd the failinr of bodily strencth hi a;p.Mite remains ?ood. while Ms internal organs continue to perform thoir several functions naturally and regularly. Many eminent physicians have visited him. but nil daclare th cae a hop.e on?, and unite in pronouncing it the most remarkable which ever came under their observation. In u Itnd Wny. New York Sun. The Hon. William F. Vilas will go to Waukesha for repairs as soon a the sate of the public business permits.

CHICAGO COR VET VP AVITII A HISII, GAIM.XG a 1-4CEXTS. "Wheat and Oatn Were Curried Along; on the Strength in Maize and . Pork Gained 1- l--c. CHICAGO, Aug. 1. Bullish crop reports scared the shorts to-day, and the market went up with a rush, closing 2Uc higher. Corn carried the other markets with it. wheat closing higher, oats higher and provisions at an advance for pork. The wheat ruled active at times, the range for the day being lc. The feeling developed was strong and the market was inclined to follow corn. Professionals and New York led in buying, and the Northwest sent a good share of the selling! orders. Advices from the spring wheat territory were very favorable. Cables were weaker in tone and receipts liberal, both of which were inclined to depress the market after the opening, but the bulge in corn checked the downward course and values advanced. The sharp advance shortly before the close was due to the' strength in corn here. Shorts covered rather freely. September opened I'sC lower, at 53Vie, advanced c, lost c, advanced lc and closed at 63T8C Corn was active and again excited and unsettled, with the market broad and volume of business heavy. Initial transactions were at TgC advance, September opening at 46ic, and gradually selling up P4&lc for September and lc for May, eased pff y-Mc, advanced Tifimc, changed some, ruled firm, and closed with September at 47'bC The country was buying freely again, offerings quite meagre at "times and quite a feature. The State reports were bullish and the weekly weather bulletin was also of the same tenor, which increased the buying orders from outside, as receivers and commission houses all placed orders to purchase at the opening. The weather map showed general rains. The State report of Iowa was very bullish, as also was Nebraska: but Missouri. Illinois and Kansas reported the crop with better condition than the first-named State.- September was firmer than the rest of the list, the comparatively light stocks and moderate receipts, together with a good demand for the cash article, making shorts rather nervous. Oats were higher in sympathy with corn. The range for September was 34c. Provisions were dull but firm on the strength in corn. Compared with last night.

Aug. l.-The Northwestern Miller says: Minneapolis mills last week ground 171,270 barrles of flour, against 153.000 the week before. Shortage of water power Is badly handicapping them. There appears to have been more life to the flour market last week, and, though very low prices had to be accepted, the sales reported approximated 220,000 barrels. There was aulte free selling for export. The domestic

trade still consists !n the main of small orders that are to be quickly turned ever again. Export shipments were 40.04) barrels, against 3i,olo the week before. Tae Superior-Duiuth mills made 93.624 barrels, !in-ainct jvi thf rrovioii4 wpek. Seven

mills are this week producing at the rate of 15.0"0 barrels daily. Flour sales were mnr-itrt l-jt uvk The pTnort market is dull. Stock of Hour at the mills and In transit is 21.300 barrels, tne .Miiwausee mills ground 22.037 barrels, against 29.633 the week before. They are drawing wheat from Chicago by lake to grind, foreign trade seems disposed to mane low prices un basis of 17s 6d for patents. London. The market in the East is unfavorable as a rule. Ohio valley millers, most of whom were receiving new wheat freely, report it of tine quality generally. Indianapolis mills naa a neavy iraue. .-jew York, aside from a fair trade in the middle of the week, had a declining market, with buyers encouraged to bid low by weakness in wheat. All the mills of St. Louis are now in operation, and the output is assuming old-time proportions. Last week it was 86.1C0 barrels, an increase of 13,700 barrels over the preceding week. In general, the St. Louis flour market has been weak and depressed, and much affected by the fall in wheat. TRAD 12 IX GGXEIIAL. Quotation nt St. Loulu, Philadelphia, linllimore and Other Point. ST.

PIXH OF MINNESOTA. The Wonder of the Bar anil the Admiration of the New York Sun. Dispatches from Chicago show that the Hon. William Wirt Irwin, the "Tall Fine" of Minnesota, In a usual mood. He is of counsel for the Debs gang. In court "his tall frame quivered "with excitement. His gestures were wild, and his voice rose almost to a shriek." Or course, as a quiverer, gestlculator and shrleker. the Tall Pine is the wonder of the bar and the admiration of the Northwest. His head reaches to the top of the dome.

"The murmur of a million panes, the squeak of a million guinea hens, tha banging of a million doors, the bay of a million stag9 these are but toys compared, w th the Tall Pine of the Minnesota when he shakes his roots with his own storms, and all the birds of prophecy nestle amontf his leaves.
