Whout I. Too HlEll-Short Crops Re
ported from Franco.
New Yokk, Aug. 18. Tho whont
market opened steady this morning, but
all are watching Chicago trad foreign
quotations nnd there may bo another
spurt in prices before the dny Is over.
Yestcrd.iy's trading in wheat on tho
Produco Exchange was the largest in
years. The transactions amounted to
ia),500,000 bushels.
It was somewhat remarkablo that no
failures vrero announced. Tho nbsenco
of them showed that tho trudars wero in
good financial condition.
The whe,.t speculators discovered that
the foreigners thoroughly understood
the cro; situation on both sides of the
water. Tho prolltB on tho cable orders
wore hoAvy, and they came out of tho
pockets of tho men who were so anxious
to buy at the outset.
Wheat ought to sell lower on account
of the excMsIvo yield. Iu the hands of
speculators entirely great, howover, it
may be advanced, which will bo a good
thing for tho producers.
Rye, which has had tho largest ad
vance of any cereal, had an abrupt de
cline of 7 cents on the news that the
Germnn Government had given orders
to accept wheat in lieu of ryo on army
contracts.
Not only is there a short crop of whoat
in Europe, hut also of ryo, whloh is an
Important article of food with tho peas
antry. Tho wheat to make up tho de
ficiency in ryo will como from America.
NO FAILURES IN CHICAGO.
Brokers Itefus to Do lltislocss Except on
Largo Slnralns.
Chicago, Aug. 18. Brokers refused
to do business to-day except on extraor
dinary margins, and principals wora not
numerous in the pits. Tho result wus a
light business. Nobody was anxious to
do anything. Everybody foared such u
sonsational turn In prices as would re
sult in general ruin.
There Is no talk of a corner now. Tho
so.irclty of broadstutls in Europe, not
manipulation, is held responsible for the
phenomenal advance in prices.
The strain of tho Intense excitement
was too severe to bo borne for any pro
tracted period. With transactions oov
orlng many million bushels per day, an
advance of 24 cents per bushel In one
week is ouough to give pauso oven to the
wildest plungrr.
It wns a rather remarkable Instance of
tho solidity of this market that during
the phenomenal fluctuations in prices
the past three or four days, in which im
mense fortunes have been made and
lost, there has thus far not been s single
failure, and even rumor has not been
busy with the nnmo of any member of
the Board as in financial trouble.
Whoat Too Hlch lu 'FrI.oo.
Saw Francisco, Aug. 18. Business on
the Board of Trade hero has bean stimu
lated by tha excitement prevailing in the
Eastern markets for tho past fow days.
Wheat quotations have beon consider
ably higher. It is stated by dealers,
however, that as far as this market Is
concerned tho freight is against any fur
ther advance in wheat, and prices are
considered too high now. Tho crops aro
large and hetweon one and two million
tons will be available for shlpmont.
Wild itlnrkat la 3Iluoapolls.
ItoNEAPOua, Minn., Aug. 18. There
was a lively sceaa on 'Change here when,
wheat started at $1.04, swung gradually
up to $1.(18 and then bagan a downward
whirl that at noon landed at an even
dollar. Speculators wero greatly ex
alted and bidding was without any basis
us to value. It was a wild market.

The foreign residents have been much

great anxiety.

EXPLAINING HIS BANK AFFAIRS.

on State Money,
Another Chapter In the QunkAr city Dank
8cnndnls The Ofltcor nf the Defnuot
Gordon City Institution I'lead Oullty
lrsldnt Konnody nnd Ills llrothor to
bo fenntriiced This vftoruoon,
PHiLAPKLrHlA, Aug. 18. The councils
sub-committee to luvestlgato the affairs
of ex-City Treasurer Bardsley and the
Keystouo Bank hold another session,
Gov, 1'attlson appeared und expressed a
willingness to tostlfy as to the nlleged
payment of Interest to Bardsley by tho
Chestnut Street National Bank, ot whioh
Mr. Paulson was president prior to his
olection as Governor. After being sworn
he ssldi
"I was elected president of the Chest
nut Street bank in 1887 and served uutll
tho seoond weok la January, 1801. The
city opened an account with tho bauk
when it was made a dty depository.
Bardsley at that timo was treasurer, I
think. No Interest was paid to Bardsley
on the noaount.
"I nover mot Mr. Bardsley as president
wlce, and I novor know him socially.
At no timo as president of tho bank did
I have any conversation with Bardsley
on tho question of deposit, or directly or
indirectly on tho payment ot Interest,
No interest was ever paid on Stnto
money.
"The first intimation wo hod th-it
somo of tho money deposited by Bards
ley w.is State money was whon wo were
called upon to file a bond of $100,000.
This Mr. SIngorly subsequently did.
Bardsley came to tho bauk in 1889, and
received certillcutes of deposit. Those
certificates ware obtained by Bardsley
from time to timo, and It was upon these
that Interest was paid about $000 at
one time and $500 at another.
"The first intimation I had that tho
bank was paying Bardsley interest was
when tha cashier camo to mo and said
Bardsley wontod threo per ceut, on his
money. Tho bank oould not nfford to
pay this, the certificates wero surrendered
and the account withdrawn,
"Certlfioatos ot deposit are issued by
all banks and Interest paid on thorn.
Tho account for which wo gave Bardsley
tho certificates was not a oheck account,
and tho money merely remained in tha
bank. We nover paid Bardsley any lu
torest on tho account of the city."
According to tho testimony of oxperts,
Bardsley, lu addition to his various ille
gal sources of profit to himself, appears
to havo had the use of $033,833.38 for
two mouths. Tho money belonged to
tho sinking fund and was tho proceeds
of tho sitlo of loans to pay tho city's
debts. Instead of at onco paying tho
monoy into the troasury, Burdsloy loaned
it out at interest for tho period men
tioned. ALL PLEAD GUILTY.
