TOE BULLS GET A SHOW.

Wheat Bearishly Disposed On Opening, But the Tune Changed Later On. Light Receipts in the Northwest Help Prices. The Spanish Treaty a Bull Document. Wheat Closes Easy at Very Fair Prices. Ikdiawapoi.is.1kd., I Monday Eveswo. May 1L i J. E. Berry & Co.'s advices from the Chiaso grain and provision market comment la follows: "After an active scalping market wheat closed c higher than on Saturday. The rery pood government report and the still more favorable rains reported in Kansas and other parts of the country caused rather a bearish feeling in the wheat market the fore part of the session. Later rthe report of the removal of a greater part pi tbe Spanish duty and some reports concerning the Michigan winter wheat crop Et3rted the e hortg who had already oversold themselves on the crop prospects, to buying freely. The trading was not large ' bnt the market was quite strong and active until near the close, when a very light decrease in the visible supply was announced, causing a weak closing with nearly all the advance lost. Pome large local shorts were heavy buyers of corn on the opening, absorbing all offering-? and with the advance in wheat corn recovered about lc per bushel, but the advance was nearly all lost, closing at about Saturday's figure. Numerous outside speculators have been bullish on corn so long that any little reaction in favor of holders etart.4 liberal buving. "Tne loading of stockbeing quite Jieavy the forepart of the week usually "causes lighter receipts of grain, and shippers were liberal buyers of corn and oats in anticipation f lighter receipts on Tuesday and Yednesd.y. This may cause a steady market at present prices for' a few day.. We think the receipts will be largn and lower prices probable about the end of the week. "The hog market rolled over and slid down another notch. There being very little trade and no special feature further than the dec line in the price wouM indi-cat.-."' The local wheat market was quiet and 6teady today, the demand being light. 'Corn was dull and not wanted and cats were dull and quiet. Hay was lower with no demand to speak of.

The risible supply of Tia aa reported for the board of trade ia m

follows: Whfat 20,853,000, decrease 126,000; corn S,71?,000. increase 503,000; oats 2.6J0.OGO. decrease 210.t".00; rye 415.(00, deorease 13,000; barley t50,0 0. n:rease M.WA,1. The wheat trade was quite beariin'y diposei when the board opened but it changed later. All of the early oiierings were absorbed by New York, and Sr, Louis people, and by various lare traders here. The early selling was because of the bearish government crop report issued Saturday and because of the fine weather. The buying later was because of the light receipts fit Duluth au'l Minneapolis, and because of a reported abo.ition of two -thirds of the Spanish import duty on flour. Additional dispatch? were received telling of damage by hot winds to the com and ca.s crops of Hungary. The shorts were made nervous also by the fact that the May futures widened out one time to almost 5c premium over the July and by the early indications that there would be a heavy decrease iu the visib.e supply, though the figure when posted showed only a small one. July opened at P-d,7'-We or ahade above Saturday's close, broke to !)S'2'c an J then advanced to P0;'c. After hanging around to Wile for along" time it jumped to $1.00?' and then fell back to V'Jlic Reports of damage by bugs in Kansas, feara fur the crops on account of dry weather in Minnesota and deterioration in condition in Michigan sufficed to raise the price to $1.00,' but the sales at this tiarure were so large that it dropped back to 9'Jc. It appears that large traders were loalpin? the market. Tbey overwhelmed th trade with o.lerings at jd. but were disposed to bay at o below that price. Toward the close the bears threw a lot of grain'on the market and broke the price to 917Be, but it rallied J4o. closing easy. Corn opened weak as the result of fine growing weather and receded for awhile; later, when wheat advanced, corn rilied in sympathy. July opened at 53'. c, sold off to 57Je. rallied to 5fc, reecded to the opening price and closed steady. Oats started weak, with other (rains, and then ranged higher, liefore the e ose, a in wheat and corn, all the advances were lost, ProVisions started weak because of the large run of hogs at the yards, but they had a feeble littie rally, in sympathy with grains. Nevertheless, the undertone of the market was heavy at all tiroes and the close wan at the concessions from Saturday's lat prices. The lea ling futures ranged as follows:

THE SPEAKERSHIP.

Representatives Springer. MoMlllen and !nam Are Candidates. Bcbkau of The Sentinel, Scbkau of The Sentinel, "I iEW York-ave., N. W., isniNOTOx, D. C, 3Iay 5. ) No. 1218 :s Wa Gossip about the speakership contest has received an impetus during the past few days by the presence here of KepreBentativesMcMillen, Springer and Bynutn, all of whom are candidates for the honor. Senators Gorman and Mcl'herson and Congressman Tracy of New York, the latter a representative Cleveland man, are aho in the city an 1 their visit has led to the report tnat conferences on the presidential eituation are ako in propress. In a friendly, informal conference between Mr. Bynum and Mr. Tracy the former told tlio New Yorker emphatically that he had not spoken to a single congressman on the speakership question and he did not intend to. He thoupht that it was an office that should seek the man, and not the man eeek the oilice. Mr. Bynum realizes that the oflice of speaker will brinp with it great responsibilities, due to the overwhelming democratic majority and the impossibility of natiefying all the elements in the party. No matter what he may do the speaker is apt to find himself condemned, and Mr. Bynum said that when he came to consider the matter seriously he doubted whether it would be wise to accept the speakership, even if he could secure it. It's a matter of some doubt among the politicians whether the candidates are making much headway. With very few exceptions the member of the various delegations are not disposed to commit tnemselves, and it is not likely that the speakership Cght will be definitely settled until shortly before the meeting of congress next December, and even then the best slates may be broken. All theeections will have to como together and determine what action will have the most favorable bearing oathe presidential campaign of lf02. In the meantime each candidate will endeavor to Ftrengtben himself and then await the judgment of the aggregate will of the party. The fact that north of Mason's and Dixon's line the democratic party has 121 members and the South has but 115, must not, Representative Tracy says, be overlooked. In view of this fact the northern democrats will ask prominent recognition in the chairmanships of important committees. N u w from th Front, Gcthrik, O. T., May 11. Up to this hour nothing has been heard from the Feveral parties in pursuit of the gang that Iwdd up the Santa Fe train on Saturday nipht. The Santa Fe company offers $2,500 for the arrest of the desperadoes, and the express company a like sum. Thi, coupled with the amount already offered in California and Texas, where the Dalton boys formerly operated, makes a considerable sum for their apprehension. ; The Mes.!in Get a Discount. Poet-Dispatcb. Mr. Blaine will doubtless find it hard work to persuade the Mexicans that thev honM enter into a reciprocity treaty with us. They buy certain goods of American manufacture at from 2o lo 00 per cent. ! less than we do now.

The ladies of the party received many beautiful souvenirs, including silver spoons, bullion bars, mineralized etchings and specimens and rlowprs. It was learned here today that some of the party were robbed of small sums of money while at the Portland hotel, Portland, last Tuesday nicht. It was undoubtedlv the work of sneak thieves. When the presidential party arrived at Salida .the president received from the citizens of Villa Grove a large box of fine specimens of gold, silver, iron, copper, lead, zinc and coal mined in the eunny San Luis valley. The school children presented Mrs. Harrison with an album of pressed wild fiowers. The president's special train made, n short stop at 1 :'-0 on the hanging bridge over the Arkansas river in the Iloyal (iorge canon in order to a low the travelers to view the grand beauty of their surroundings.

A MEMORABLE OCCASION.

GROVER CLEVELAND VISITS BUFFALO. Fiftieth Anniversary of tha German Tenng Men's Association Celebrated tr a Great Throng Mr. Cleveland Mk an Eloquent Addreos Buffalo, N. Y.. May 11. The German young men's association of I5ufialo celebrated it fiftieth anniversary here tonight in Music hall. A remarkable circumstance was the presence of G. A. George and Tr. John Hauenstein, who were respectively president and vicepresident of the aasociatiou half a century ago and hold the same o likes today. The principal event of the festival was the presence and speech of ex-President Cleveland. It was his first public appearance here in almost eight years. He rereceived nn ovation when he appeared on the platform, and the entiiusiaem ov the great audience was plainly pleasing to Mr. Cleveland. Mr. Cleveland spoke as follows : Mb. Prf.side!st and La die ami (Jkm lbmen 1 am glad to meet here toni'lit t in my old friends and acquaintances, and t joiu them in the felicitations which have called us ex art the r. At this moment I recall with r t: ot vividness another evening nearly eitht ye.rs ago, when in a beautiful building siamliiu' u this spot and then just completed, we in: a ' irated with songs and r?joicinz a grand naii-.n d sangerfest. That was a proud day fr l'ul.ii, and a prouder one still for our (ierman Ul 'ow. towusmen, who then welcomed as their vupMs a large and notable assemblage fnm many states, representing their naona love of mnaio, and at the same tune were permitted to eihibit to their visitors, as a monument of the enterprise and activity of the ;ermai young men's association, the grand and imposing Mnic hall in whib their testival of on was held. The disaster which oon after overtook the association, involving the destruction of their splendid building, brought uotli'uuit.'cmcnt to the members ot the organizatiov.. fought we meet in another aud more magnificent Music hall, built upon the ashes of the first, to celebrate the close of titty years in the life of an association that exhibits to every observer the courage and de.ermination wliich inevitably lead to usefulness and success. 1 shall not acsume such a familiarity wit i the career of the association ns would enable me to present in detail the results of its past elVor's. In any event it would ill beome i: e to enter upon this field, in view ot the fact that the able and honorable gentleman now at the head of the association was also its hrt pretdeut, and has for fifty years watched its irccress and been devoted to its interest?. Sare.y there has seldom been nn orrnniration wnich numbered among its member at the end of half a century so competent a chronicler of Us hietory and achievements. 1 understand that among the prominent purposes of the Uerman youag mcu'n association, are the propagation and rromctirn of n fcnovrli edje of lierman literature and the cultivation and encouragement of the best elements of tierman character. So far as the first of these objects is concerned, I hope I may be permitted to say that while the efforts of the association in the d're,v tion mentioned ara mostp raise worthy and patriotic, suoh an undertaking can by no means i-e monopolized by any association, 'lheva'ue and importance of German literature is too keenly appreciated to be neglected in any part of tne world, where there ate those who?ek tokr.ow the past triumphs of science, poetry, music and art, or where there are those who strive to keep pace with their present development and proreus. It is not too much to say that all nations which make claim to high civilization encourage the study of German literature, and that the extent to which this study is pursued by a people furnishes a standard of their enlightenment. On behalf of the American people I am inclined also to claim tonight that the Gennsn character which the association undertakes to cultivate ti so interwoven with all the rrowth and progress of our country that we have a right to include it among the faotors which make up a sturdy and thrifty Americanism. With our early settlers came the Germans. They suited themselves to every condition of onr new world. Many of ihem fought for American independence, and many who in the trade of war came to fight against ns afterward settled on our soil and contributed greatiy to the hardihood and stubborn endurance whic h our young nation so much needed. As years added to the new republic, the tide of German immigration increased in volume. Those who thus came to ns brought with them a love of liberty which readily assimilated them to our institutions and their natural love of order made them good e'A zen. By their love of musio and see al enjoyments they shed a briaht light upon the solemn and constant rout:ne of American work, while et the same ! time they abundantly proved that reasonaMe recreation was entirely consistent with wholesome and conservative accumulation. Ihey were found in every part of our land. Among the pioneers of the far West they struggled against discouragements r.nd hardship, counteracting privation by frugality, and never for a moment losing sight of the better day promised by the future to undaunted courage and persistent industry. In our cities and towns they were found in the frout rank ot successful business and trade, iind by the choice cf their fellow-citizen they held public pisit:ons of trust and influence. Everywhere they illustrated the value and the sure reward of economy and steady work. Thus before the American nation had lived 100 years our German population had grown to millions, and ooustituted an important ingredient in the mass of American activity. Then there came a time when the government of the country of their adoption was assaulted by rebellious hands, and then our German fellow-citizens had presented to them an opportunity to prove the depth and breadth of their attachment to the land in which they lived and wrought, and to exhibit how completely they had become patriotic American citizens. They allowed not a moment for uncertainty, but flocked by thousands to the standard of the Union and bravely devoted themselves to its defense. In every battle tne German soldiers fought with courage and persistence and died with fortitude. This common baptism of blood and this partnership in peril brought closer together every element of our people and made thera all more than ever and in every sense Americans. This leads me to say that any opposing cUims to owuership iu the valuable trails of German character admit of a ia:r compromise. No one will begrudge the satUfaction so be derived from analyzing these elements snd establishing their Germ in origin; and all will concede that the more they are cultivated the more our countrv will gin. itit when all this is done let u etll these traits, so far as they are here exhibited, American. Th.py have been with us since our beginning; they hnye influenced every day of ooroountr's life; they are among the traits which our government w as formed to foster, and they are e ential to our country's safety and prosperity. I hardlj think tl ere is any city in the land that should appreciate the value of German population better than Ilnl'alo. Oa every side, within our limit, are seen the evidences of the thrift of your German fellow-townsmen end monuments of their industry and enterprise. No one can dispute their contribution to your imro-n8e municipal growth, and you do well to recognize it in the selection of these charged with the administration of your city governmeat. Kveu now there stand at its heud, performing his duties acceptably to the entire eomr nity, one who has won his way to the confix nee of his fellow-citizens, solely by the German-American traits of honesty, industry and economy. I know that he will forgive me for saying that when I knew him first,not many yean ago, lie was occupying an honorable but very humble position and rave no symptom of his present prominene . I will not dispute the right of any one to call him a German; bnt I claim the satigfc?ion of calling this old frie id of mine also a first-olasa American. In the licht of the snggotioa I have made, it is a pleasant thing to learn the significant fact that the membership of the Germ in young men's association is auite largely made up ot those who have no title to German parentage or origin, I cannot resist the. temptation to introduce her the thought that no such association can exist and escape a responsibility to our people and onr government. Wherever our countrymen are gathered together with the professed purpose of mutual improvement or in furtherance of any useful object, they ought to do something for their country. Its welfare and progress depend so clearly upon what the people are tanght and what they think that patriI etiam should pervade their every endeavor in

the direction of mental or social improvement. Onr government was made by the people, and by the people it must be constantly watched and maintained. Like every other mechanism it requires guidance and care. Without this, I ke many another mechanism, it will not only lad to do its work, but it may injure and wound those who stand idly near. We cannot afford iu the heedless race for wealth, nor In the absorbing struggle for the promotion of selfish ends, to neglect for a day our duty to our government. So, as the ue nbers of the German young men's association contemplate the steadfast lore of country which belongs to the German character, let them enfoiei the lesson that this sentiment is Absolutely essential to the strength and Viktor of American institutions. If they find that German industry and frugality lead I-) national huppiness and comfort, let them insist that thee characteristics be rooted in our soil ; and if they find that the jaMioe and equality which our free institutions promise) and which the Germans love are withheld from them and the American people, let them demand frcm the government which they sapport a scrupulous redemption of its p. edges. As this association e.osses the threshold which lies midway in the first century of its existence, its members may weil recall with pride and congratulation what it his thus far dona for thd promotion of a knowledge of German literature and the cultivation of German character; and as they enter upon the second half century of organized eSort they should be mora than ever determined to pursue these purposes. not only because they may thus keep alive a fond rememhrance of the Fatherland, but because tbey may thun, in higher, better spirit. bid in the cultivation of those seutiments

which purify and strengthen a genuine and patriotic Americanism. After the anniversary exercises of the German young men's association in Musio all, a complimentary dinner was given honor of ex-l'res-ident Cleveland at tbe i roquois hotel by his personal and politi cal mends in iutiato. In Ins remarks in response to the toast master's welcome Mr. Cleveland was reminiscent, He began by saying: My friend, I have been striving for several years to believe that l am sti 1 n the bright and sunny side of the time which separates middle age from the last declivity of life, bn now and here, amid the memories of early manhood and rocailine the scenes of thirty-five year ago, I yield the strLgjl and enroll myself among those who arc no longer young. I have reached the time in life when t begin to enjoy the compensation of advancing years which i born of retrospection, when it disrards all past irritations and dwells only upon the things in njeaiorj's keeping that are pleasant and cou solinc. My mn i at tnis moment is full of the. recollections ot the experiences connected with, my early life in Itiitla.'o. Some of these experiences were rued, but they were healthful and they appear t me now robbed ol everything save the features that make them welcome memories Keferrimr in a jocular way to his former law partner, Mr. tfisstll, who was present, Mr. Cleveland sai i: I am g'.ad to know that he has grown to be a very fair lawyer and is a respectable citizen. I understand he has lately married, which is something that for the lat five or six years I have thought was a very prcjer thing for a man of his ae, or even my aire, to do. Mr. Cleveland referred to Huffalo's first mayor, Joseph Elliott, who held otiice in lS3j, and er.id that after all, ho cnull Fcarcelyspeakasan old residntof Bufialn, for bo did not remember Llliott. Then h added : I recall distinctly, however, the cel?bratioa of the city's semi-centennial, fifty ya;s afterward, and I was very well acquainted with the man who was mayor at that time. I believe he dab: led a little aiterward in s'&te and national poli ties. At any rate, I know he had a job for four years in the government employ and then, like many others in publio positions, when there came a change of administration he lofct his place, lie was accused. I am told, of talking too much about the tariff and was charged with attempting to ruin the country in sundry and divers ways. In point of fact, how ever, I am convinced that notwithstanding all we hear of civil eervioe reform, h was discharged for purely partisan reasons and bto.iuse some one else wanted his tlsce. 11 did a great deal of har 1 work and was inucbi perplexed and troubled, but I know that his greatest trial was his alienation of many per snnal aud political friends in making appoint menta to oflice. It was impossible to avoid i this, and it will continue to be impossible in ail caes so longns the applicant for office and tba man who it charged wiih the rrspoi a hility ol appointment occupy such entirely diSertnt points of observation, and just eo long as inblio duty may sometimes stand in the way of pereomd friendship. AN APPEAL FOR AID. Many Settlers In Nebraska Reported Is Great Destitut.on. To tee Editor Sir: I wish to inform your readers of the destitution of the people at this place. They plowed and sowed and reaped nothing last year. I would thank the readers of your paper if j they would send some money to help them till they can raie a crop, or clothing, shoes, dresses or something to eat, whichever they see fit. They have but little to eat or wear and no money to buy with. IIo'3 and cattle have starved to death, till some people have no hogs or cattle, which baa left them in a destitute condition. Somo will have to leave their homes and can't hold their c'aiuis. I am one that helps to receive aid for the poor. I thought as Indiana was ray native state and Indianapolis sixty-five miles from where I was born, I would see if I could be helped. If you pend anything; ship to Trenton, Neb. If you send money send to Anna Harrison, Cornell, Hitchcock countv, Nebraska. May 6, lM'l. BLOODY WORK AT LOGANSPORT. Marti a Crlner, After M ordering- Ilia Mis tress, Kills Himself.
