TO DEMORALIZE RATES a LOCAL SHIPPERS RESORT TO METHODS THAT ARE UNDERSTOOD. ♦ (The Vandalia'a Heavy Bnalneaa In May —The Biff Four Purchaalnff More i Heavy Frelffht Engines, A local freight agent of one of the important Indianapolis lines said yesterday that he could name three large shippers at this point who had put in the greater part of two days visiting agents of different lines and offering freights, and when answered that only tariff rates would be named the shipper would say: “Well, I can do better than that; your line is not in it.” Local agents are determined to maintain rates until it is proven that at some other point rates are being cut. The agents well know that a certain amount of this business must be shipped in the next thirty and sixty days, and it is just as well to get tariff rates for moving it as to carry it at a cut rate, and there is a determination to maintain tariff rates at Indianapolis so long as they are adhered to at Chicago, Peoria and St. Louis. Keports from these points yesterday showed that considerable business has commenced moving at tariff rates. The only weak place is that the roads are anxious to make good earning exhibits for June, the last month of their fiscal year, and the temptation to do a big business at shaded rates is much greater than in July, the first month of the fiscal year. The Vandalla’* Big Month. In the month of May the Vandalla did the largest business at Indianapolis of any month in the road’s history, handling 14,231 cars, against 10,854 in May, 1897, as follows: Forwarding west, 4,619 loaded cars and 3,086 •empty cars, against 3,740 loaded cars and 2,663 empty cars in May, 1897; bringing in, 6,703 loaded cars and 1.445 empty cars, against 4,020 loaded and 1,431 empty cars in May. 1897; increase this year, 2,562 loaded cars. Os the in-bound business 628 cars were loaded with live stock. Midland Receivership Asked. T. C. Fouse, of Madison county, yesterday tiled suit in the Anderson Circuit Court asking for a receiver for the Indiana Midland, or the Chicago & Southeastern. The application is made on judgments which have not been satisfied. The case will be argued at once.

Personal, Local and Genernl Notes. W. H. Newman, the new president of the Iwike Shore road, has the last three days been making his first official trip over the lines. Common stock of the Ptg Four is now selling at $lO per share r. than in February, and $5 per share more than thirty days ago. The Big Four will run an excursion today from Indianapolis to Chickamauga at less than half rates, tickets good to return Including June 7. The machinery in the new shops of the Cincinnati, Hamilton & Dayton at Lima is of the most modern pattern. It includes a compressed air plant. The Lake Erie & Western management is expending quite a sum-In improv* merits on its Sandusky division, laying new steel, new ties and ballasting. In the month of May 1.964 carloads of coal were shipped from mines on its line, mostly for use of roads which draw their supplies from the mines cn that road. F. F. Flagg, who for some years has been assistant to the president of the American Express Company, has been elected third vice president of the company. W, H. Canniff. the new president of the Nickel-plate, announces that during the months of June, July and August all offices will be closed on Saturdays at 1 p. m. The summer schedule of the Vandalla to Lake Maxinkuekee goes into effect June 13 and the Petoskey service, on the Michigan division of the Vandalia, on June 20. Train 20, on the Pittsburg & Lake Erie, consisting or six cars, was on Tuesday hauled from New Castle Junction to Pittsburg, forty-nine miles, in fifty-one minutes. The new shops which the Wabash is to •rect at Toledo will cost $200,00C. The improvements tivj company proposes to make at that point will cost at least another SIOO,OOO. Actual figures show that the Baltimore & Ohio Southwestern, in the first ten months of its fiscal year, earned, net, $194,849 more than in the corresponding period of the previous year. Charles E. Perkins, president of the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy, who has been 111 some weeks at Burlington, la., is now recovering and expects to be able to go East in ten days. The Wabash will disregard the demand of Its competitors that it charge excess fare on its new fast trains to Colorado points. If ltf brings on a rate war the Wabash will meet thb cut. Samuel Symonds, formerly master mechanic of the Fitchburg road, but who left the service in the recent overturning, has accepted an important position on the Philadelphia & Reading. On May 21 H. M. Bronson, assistant general passenger agent of the Big Four, had been In railroad service forty-five years, beginning as a clerk on the Mad River road, now the Sandusky division of the Big Four. The natural gas company of Wabash, Ind., where are located shops of the Big Four, charged the company so much for gas that the railroad company has discarded it and is laying in a stock of coal at its •hops. R. C. Caples has been appointed city passenger agent of the Delaware, Lackawanna & Western at New York city. Until quite recently Mr. Caples’s home was at Fostoria, O. He is well known in Western passenger Circles. The Toledo, St. Louis & Kansas City earned in May $173,141, an increase over May, 1897, of $2,902. Since July 1 the road bas earned $2,056,6®, an increase over the corresponding period of the previous year Os $24,252. On July 1 C. G. Waldo will have been general manager of the Cincinnati. Hamil ton & Dayton lines six years, being promoted first from purchasing agent to assistant to the president, then to be general manager. Fifty new furniture cars of anew design •re being built for the Grand Rapids & Indiana by the Pennsylvania. Company. Since the latter came into control of the property much has been done in the way of increas - ing the equipment. The average sale of the interchangeable mileage books of the Central Passenger Association is now 12,000 per month, and from now on it will cost the association 10 cents for each book, the printers having advanced the price 1% cents per book. On the evening of June 9 the local freight •gents, including the line agents, will meet at the Bates House to osganize an association for the purpose of encouraging closer relationship and taking such action as will make their meetings of advantage. The Chicago. Milwaukee & St. Paul is doing a good deal of work on its roadbed this season. On the River division alone it is building ten miles of heavy stone masonry. The company’s two new $125,000 passenger trains are now in service between Chicago and St. Paul. The annual convention of the master car builders will convene at Saratoga on June 15, and that of the master mechanics at the same place June 29. Delegates to these conventions are being liberally provided with free transportation, including transportation for their wives. The Great Northern is building a considerate mileage of extensions in North Dakota, and is finding trouble in securing men Instructions were sent this week to Chicago to employ and send to the company three hundred Italians, If no other class of laborers could be obtained. William GarstanjL superintendent of motive power of the Big Four, has placed an order with the Richmond iocomotlvt works for two more consolidated engines of the muso type of engine W. continues jo

break all records in the hauling of heavy trains and in fuel economy. June is on eventful month for Col. Wm. Shaw, district passenger agent of the Chicago, Burlington & Quinsy, who is in the city. He will to-day celebrate his fifty-sev-enth birthday. On June 1 he had been in railroad service thirty-six years, thirty-one years of the time with the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy. The lightest tonnage of stone was shipped over the Monon last month from the Bedford stone quarries in any month in some years, owing to the strike ot the stone cutters of New York, where hundreds of carloads of stone, but for the strike, would have been shipped. To Chicago and other northern points the shipments compared favorably with former years in May. By a decision just rendered by the board of arbitrators of the Joint Traffic Association the differential of $1 enjoyed by the Big Four and the Chesapeake & Ohio between St. Louis and Washington and Baltimore is wiped out, hut this line is now so well established and popular that the change will not affect the business, say those in position to understand the situation. An official circular issued by J. D. Layng general manager of the West Shore road, announces that G. E. Hustis has been appointed general superintendent of the system, vice Charles W. Bradley, retired. Mr. Hustis has for eight years been private secretary of Mr. Layng, and prior to that was in service on the New York Central for fifteen years. Mr. Bradley’s resignation was a great surprise, but he states it was voluntary on his part. Wallace, traveling passenger agent of the Union Pacific in this city, left yesi. * or Omaha to attend a meeting of all the passenger representatives, to be held in that city to-day. They will spend one nay in visiting the transmississippt exposition and then leave in a special car for Salt Lake City, to be absent five days, returning via Denver. Matters pertaining to the interests of the Union Pacific and its traffic will be discussed at this meeting. GREAT TRADE REVIVAL ♦ . ENORMOUS RECORD-BREAKING MOVEMENT OF WHEAT AND CORN. Better Times Both East and West, with Orders Increasing—Dun & Co.’s Weeltly Trade Review. • ♦ NEW YORK, June 3.—R. G. Dun & Co.’s Weekly Review of Trade will say to-mor-row: May having been the first full month of actual war the fact that failures in that month were smaller, even though but little, than in the corresponding month last year and nearly 10 per cent, smaller than in May, 1896, is somewhat encouraging, the more because a year ago the remarkable decrease in May gave proof of the heavy improvement in business which made the year so gratifying in general results. Large failures were eight in manufacturing for $2,385,000 this year, against thirteen for $2,965,000 last year, and In trading they were five for $690.000, against ten for $1,5J2,077 in 1897. Hesitation in extending usual credits soon after war began, naturally affected weak more than strong concerns, but it soon gave place to steady and increasing confidence. Wheat dropped 74c from the highest point after the May deal culminated and has since been weaker for July because of accounts promising an enormous yield. Those who were nearest the truth last year now predict about 700,000,000 bushels for 1898, and all accounts make acreage much larger and conditions much better than a year ago. But with $1.15 still paid for No. 2 red in elevator and a foreign demand taking 4.294,498 bushels, flour included, from Atlantic ports for the week, against 2,165,787 last wear, and 385,439 from Pacific ports, against ,4,929 last year, the decline evidently hastens the marketing of surplus, and gives the new crop a better chance. It is not less surprising that Western receipts for the week were 4,262,520 bushels, against 2,099,795 last year, although the crop has been by some supposed almost exhausted, and corn receipts were also 7,076,491 bushels, against 6,116,523 last year. Exports of corn for the week have been 4,881.820 bushels, against 1,926,566 last year, and for the first time in history, exports of each grain have about reached 200,000,000 bushels in the same year. Os all the great industries the cotton manufacture only gives some sign of shrinkage, cotton having dropped a sixteenth during the week after a rise in goods averaging for the month about 1 per cent., thus rendering the marketing of accumulated stocks somewheat more difficult. But print cloths have advanced and in most staple goods the demand is Improving. Woolen mills are encouraged by a somewhat larger demand for goods, in part from government orders, and are averaging about 1 per cent, better prices for goods than a month ago. There is not much demand for wool, which is still held in the main above the views of manufacturers and prices have declined an average of half a cent for the month. The iron and steel manufacture leads all others in gain over previous years, its consumption of pig being apparently more than a million tons per month or 228,090 tons each week, against 170,780 tons per week in May, 1892, an increase of 33.6 per cent. Works beyond the Alleghenies are crowded with business and while some Eastern concerns are running part time, mostly bar mills, the government demand is felt r*ost in this section. Above all others in significance is the wholly unprecedented demand from agricultural implement works, which throw' in the shade all their past orders, while the plate and rail manufacturers are beating all records, partly with foreign orders, one for Canada having been placed at Chicago for 12,000 tons. Structural work is very heavy, the West furnishing a large share of it, and in sheet bars and rods for fencing the orders are large. Prices of pig have been somewhat strengthened by enormous buying orders for Bessemer and basic at Pittsburg and of charcoal at Chicago. Failures for the week have been 222 in the United States, against 241 last year and sixteen in Canada, against thirty-two last year.

ALLEGED SPANISH SPY. P. M. Snpo Accused of Corresponding with Uncle Sam’s Arch Enemy. PEOHIA. 111., June 3.—R. M. Saro was lodged in the Peoria jail to-day in default of SI,OOO bail. He is accused of using the mails to defraud a Peorian named Aldo E. Reynolds, of receiving letters under an assumed name and of corresponding with a foreign government to hinder measures of the United States. Suro came here two or three weeks ago. claiming to have been a wealthy Cuban planter and insurgent officer, and he delivered lectures, violently denouncing Spain and telling highly improbable stories. He has since been trying to collect money, among others from Reynolds, claiming it was for Spain and he also asserted that he was in correspondence with the Spanish government. Suspects In Prison. ATLANTA, Ga., June 3.—Joseph Castellanos and Frank Miller, who are believed to be spies, were brought here to-day from Tampa in charge of Lieutenant Johnson, cf the Forty-eighth Artillery. Castellanos is a Spaniard and has traveled all over the Atlantic coast. Miller is said to be an Englishman. No papers were found on them. The two men were locked up in the military prison at Fort McPherson. VITAL STATISTICS—JUNE 3. Death*. Jacob S.

Professional speculators on the bear side were very alert and active yesterday on New York ’Change, attacking first one point and then another in the list and keeping the stock market decidedly unsettled. In the final hour there was a move all along the line, which effectually broke prices, leaving only a few small net gains in some of the low-priced stocks that had been pushed up in the earlier trading. In all the prominent stocks, even Sugar, which was the leader of the market, gains were practically wiped out and, in some cases, net losses amount to over 2 points. The bear drive was accompanied by a considerable beating of tomtoms and a diffusion of alarmist rumors, and ostentatious fears of the effects of the Senate’s vote for the coinage of treasury silver. The day’-s trading opened with the conditions in Thursday's market rather emphasized; that is to say, with the highpriced dividend-paying stocks showing some effects from profit-taking and the middle and lower-grade stocks well supported by new’ buying. The profit-taking leaders were pretty well absorbed, and it was evident that funds realized by selling these stocks, instead cf being taken out of the market, were simply being diverted into other stocks, which have not yet advanced conspicuously in price. The realizing in the grangers and some of the higher-priced specialties, however, caused them to recoup somewhat and made them vulnerable to attack. London followed the New York lead and sold the high-priced stocks and bought some of the low’-priced internationals. The preferred stocks of reorganized roads were in especial favor. Union Pacific preferred and Northern Pacific preferred being conspicuous examples. Sugar was a strong sustaining force and rose at one time 2% points, but saved only the fraction. The local traction stocks were markedly weak all day. Money continues in superabundant supply and rates continue to decline. New York exchange has gone to a sharp premium at Chicago, indicating a current of funds to New York, and the New York banks continue to gain largely, also, from the subtreasury. Silver sold at 59%c, the highest Srice of the year, the demand coming from pain.

Trade Brisk, Despite the Hot Weather, and Prices Steady. Business thus far this month has been a gratifying surprise in nearly all lines, being handsomely in excess of last month and the corresponding period In 1897. Prices are well held on mont articles, la Hauls groceries of all kind.

there is a hardening tendency. Druggists are very busy and prices on many articles ati'.l advancing. Provisions are steady and moving freely. On Commission row more uualness is doing than at any time In many months, if not years. Large Quantities of fruits and vegetables are being handled and at very satisfactory prices if good stock. The poultry, egg and butter markets have taken on a summer dullness. Young chickens are in active request and if fat and large bring best quotations. The local grain market is a little slow. Receipts are not as heavy as the demand requires.

WHEAT PRICE ADVANCED HIGHER CABLES COMBINED WITH BAD W ESTERN CROP REPORTS. * Letter's Big Cash Sales Also Served to Strengthen the Market—Other Grain Lower—Pork Higher. e CHICAGO, June 3.—Higher cables, heavy buying by shorts and complaints of rust from Kansas advanced wheat prices today. July closed with a gain of 2@2%c and September 1%@1%c. Corn is %@Vic lower. Oats aro unchanged. Pork and lard are quiet and 7%c up and ribs 2%@5c higher. Strength in wheat early was due to an opening advance of from 2%d to 2%d at Liverpool. This upward tendency was sustained by reports from Kansas City of considerable damage to the Kansas wheat crop by bugs, rust and overrank growth. Cash wheat everywhere was scarce, and the bulk of it appeared to be under Leiter’s control. This, together with the fact that Letter sold 1,400,000 bushels of cash wheut to British millers yesterday, created a good buying sentiment. Shorts who had a profit seemed disposed to cover and secure it, while other shorts bought to stop further losses. On the bulges, however, new shorts were quickly created, and this selling and profit taking by the fortunate longs led to frequent breaks. The market became strong near the end of the session on heavy buying by St. Louis shorts. Chicago received thirty-two cars of wheat, against twenty-one a year ago. Minneapolis and Duluth receipts were 209 cars, against 314 a year ago. Atlantic port clearances were equal to 720 bushels in wheat and flour. July opened higher at 82@93%c, sold down to 91 Vic, advanced to. 94c, fell off to 92%c and rose to 94c at the close. September began %@%c higher at 79%@79%c, declined to 79V4C, up to 79%<g7is%c, down to 78%@79c, then up to 80%c and eased off to 80%®80%c asked, the closing figures. Notwithstanding the strength of wheat, corn was heavy. Crop prospects were considered improved, receipts were large and there was a general cessation of foreign demand. July opened Vc lower at 33Vi®.33%c, declined to 32%c, then firmed up to 33%@ 3314 c bid at the close. The speculative trade in oats was light. July started unchanged at 24%c, advanced to 24%c, sold as low as 24%c arnl reacted to 24%c, the closing figure. f After an hour of fairly active trading provisions became dull. Cudahy bought lard freely. July pork started 2%c higher at $10.87 fell off to $10.82% at the start, rose to sll.lO and declined to $10.95 bid at the close. July lard opened 214(8/60 better at $6.12%@6.15, weakened to $6.12%, advanced to $6.2214, then declined to $6.17%, the closing figure. July ribs began 2%c higher at $5.80, sold down to $5.75, up to $5.87%, eased off to [email protected]% at the close.
