The common expression 00 the wholesale streets is that trade is not what it should "be in volume, but all attribute it to the backward season, there having been no days on which spring goods would be absolutely needed. There is still some complaint about slow collections. In prices yesterday changes were few. Provisions ere weak at quotations. The same is true of potatoes, eggs and apples; of the latter there is little good fruit- on the market.

Oranges and lemons are in good supply and steady at quotations. The seed men report trade quiet and prices steady. Trade with the hardware men and dealers in tinners' supplies is improving. Sugars advanced c. There was a fair attendance on 'Change, and prices ranged aoo'ut as on Monday.

Entire Trainlcal from the Northwest That Was Expected to Grade as No. 2 Fll Shorl, and the Inspector Is Beinu' Censured. TRADING AT CHICAGO. Corn Forced to Better Figures, bat Provisions Are Unchanged.

CHICAGO. March 23. May wheat was on the bulge to-day worse than ever. It was a feverish market with freqnentiluctuations. the extremes covering a range of over 20.

The closing price is lo higher than on the day before. July sympathized to theex-tent of ll4o advance. Corn was helped by the strength in wheat and closed with a gain for the day of provisions were dull and did not change much. Perhaps the most alarming incident for the shorts was the report that a trainload of wheat sent herefrom Minneapolis and guaranteed to inspect No. 2.

with the exception of live cars, missed the grade. This discouraged shorts who had relied on getting enough to till in their short sales here. Cables were also reported higher, ana the clique seemed less inclined to support the shorts, even on tho sharp bulges. It was the general impression that tbe clique was more inclined to be aggressive now than at any time since the deal was talked of. The market at the opening was weakened by mild weather and tho increase of nearly bushels in the amount on passage, but almost immediately began to advance.

Outside shorts were doiug a large amount ot buying, the Northwest and St. Louis being in the lead. The buying by shorts was most pronounced late in the day. In addition to this Kggleston. one of tho central ligures in the clique, caino in at the close as a bidder, and the price left oil' with a sharp snap at the very top of the day.

Northwestern houses sent vigorous kicks here against unjust exactions in the Chicago grading. This is very important at present, as the outside markets have relied on their wheat grading here to till short sales. Of course it is natural to liy at tho new grain inspector and mako charges, but the trade does not believe that there is any connection between the grading bureau and the bull clique interested in preventing a Hood of contraot graus wheat to this market. Chicago receivers were found on the lioor who acknowledged that the screws are being turned a little tighter on tho Northwestern wheat and that if the same wheat had come in small lots from country points it would grade No. 2 without a question.

The opening for May delivery was 101 lower than the closing figure of yesterday, but prices were advanced irregularly 2Mo, ruled steadier, and tho closing was about higher than yesterday. Julv varied but slightly, the day's lluctuations being confined to c. There was little doing in corn. Prices were con lined within a narrow range and touched Xhp lowest point in the crop. The day's quotations showed a good protit for the shorts and in many instances this was taken and a fractional recovery resulted.

There was a good trade aud a firmer feeling in oats, owing to sympathy with corn, and to buying by shorts. There was also a liberal trade in tho way of changing from near to distant months, June being bought and May sold. The market closed steady at the outside with a net gain of In the provision pit trade was limited, the market being practically deserted a part of the time. A slight temporary rally came now and then in sympathy mainly with May wheat, the market olosinga little better than yesterday, except for pork, which is a thade lower. Estimated receipts for to-morrow are: Wheat.

"He frequently choked and bit me." sb declared, "and on several occasions ho attempted to smother me with a pillow while 1 was asleep." Mrs. iStepban is asking tbe oourts for separate maintenance, aud advances no reason for her husband's too realistic imitation of tho Moor. Borax and water is a standard remedy as a dentifrice. A great many ladies attribute the beauty of their teeth to a lotion znde of one ounce of borax to a pint and a half of water, to. which is added halt tea tapoonful of spirits of camphor and same Quantity of myrrh.

THE INDIANAPOLIS JOURNAL DAILY, SUNDAY AND WEEKLY The Journal's price for daily is only 15 cents a week, and it has a very wide circulation, reaching a large number of peoplo hitherto unable to afford the luxury of a lirst -class daily paper. Reports from nprents and subscribers indicate a continued increase, and that what used to be regarded as a luxury has becomo a necessity. Tho new readers uot only remain, but they aro constantly increasing. It is tho purpose of tho Journal to make itself even more indispensable to its patrons, new and old, and to still further widen its field. To this end it will nofc only endeavor to maintain tho characl eristics which have established its reputation as by far tho best newspaper in Indiana, but will add such new features and improvements from timo to time as aro in accord withjournalistio progress and that may tend to tho advantage of its readers.

It will, for example, give increased attention to Stato and local interests. What Indianians want is a paper in which Indiana afiairs are given especial prominence and importance. This want tho Journal haa always supplied as no other paper published outside or inside the Stato is able to do; but tho rapidly developing industries and business aud social enterprises of the community call for additional consideration and space, "With this ia view its corps of correspondents has been increased until ithas a representative in nearly every town in tho Stato. Special traveling correspondents will visit the news centers of the State at frequent intervals, thus insuring tho "write up" of every important event or matter of general interest. I5eiug published in tho geographical center of Indiana the Journal is afforded unusual facilities for securing news promptly, and, what ie of greater consequence, is ablo to reach its subscribers without delay.

The ruuuing of morning trains from Indianapolis is very favorablo to tho early distribution of papers sent by mail or express, and ia most towns within a radius of a hundred miles Journals aro delivered as early as in tho city whero they are printed. In the more re mo to counties there is but little loss of time in transportation. The Journal is tho paper for Indianians and particularly for Indiana Republicans. The change of administration involves the settlement of political problems likely to bo of tho most direct personal concern to every farmer and business man in the Stato. All such matters will be set forth in Retail, tho Journal's Washington correspondent being instructed to give especial attention toteverything having a possiblo bearing on Indiana interests.

But though tho Journal is Republican in politics it ft non-partisan in tho publication of news. Its constantendcavor is to sccuro facts unbiased by prejudice and to mako its columns trust worthy records of eachday's happenings, A large editorial force supplements tho work of the press associations and the: correspondents, and furnishes careful supervision for each department. The Sunday Journal has a well-established literary character, superior to that of any Western paper. It is not defaced by "plate matter77 nor filled with a heterogeneous mass of syndicate literature, but its contributions and miscellany ate chosen with a viow to their special fitness and adaptability to the tastes of tho readers. Tho reading matter in any given number of the Sunday Journal is equal in quantity and ii not inferior in quality to that found in tho leading magazines.

As an educa-tional adjunct and a source of entertain ment the Sunday Journal is indispensable in every well-regulated family. Tho Weekly Journal, at $1 per year, contains moro roading matter than can bo obtained for tho money in any other shape. It is carefully edited and offers the news of the week in condensed Bhnpo and a variety of miscellany, agricultural and household literature that render it ono of tho best investments that any family can mako. Try it and see. It has a largo circulation in this and other States and agents find it an easy matter to secure largo lists of subscribers.
