Greeu Co.’s renort on cotton futures says:
“There has been a stronger general feeling in
the general market, and more than a recovery
of yesterday's loss. At times there were some
pretty good blocks offering, but a great many
recent sellers were evidently anxious to rein
vest. Near months gained 12@14 points, and
later options 9® 11 points, with not much doing
beyond September, though there was an inclina
tion to sell new crop on Southern account.”

Ciucuso, May 4. There waa a tafter fsellng
prevailing on ’Change when trading opened this
morning. Prices were correspondingly higher.
-ff Tin • wheat opened firm at SffMiC aud quickly
advanced to B|®c under brisk local buying. The
same option In corn opened at 39%: and sold
freely at 10c. In the provision pit there were
onlv a few small lots for sale, at about 2,tec ad
vaiioe over yesterday s closing prices, tanl
was little more freely offered than short ribs at
uuch mged prices. The early advance to 84®c
for June wheat was caused by heavy purchase-1
made by Greene and Kershaw . They bought
about all that was offered. On the turn the
houses name 1 are alleged to have taken in fully
2,000,000 bushel 1 Several times during the first
two hours of the session June sold up to 84<4c,
the temper of the local crowd taiug strong on
general principles as much ns on uny s|-i'ial
news. There were tin ike who exiwte/l a decline
te-day, basing this belief on a "tip" that was
permitted to leak out from certain houses
largely interested in the market, but as it was
quite generally known that these houses are
daily increasing their line of long wheat, the
“tip" wax looked upon as unreliable, and the
crow and therefore refrained from rushing in to
s 'll a lot of stuff that It is claimed the bull clique
was waiting for an opportunity to buy. The
market was held steady and closed for the day
at Sl® 11 84®c for June, while July was he’d at
%c discount. The amount of wheat on the
ocean passage increased 480,000 bushels. Cleur
ings from the seaboard aggregated 115.000
bushels. The corn market ruled firm, owing to
light receipts and the si l ength shown in w heat.
Trailing, however, was light. Oats were quiet
and steady. Moss pork wusnominlly unchanged.
Lard and short rios ruled a little firmer enpty,
bn* closed about tlie same as yesterday.

JAW-BREAK INO NAMES.
They Sound Better Than They Look,
but there is Room for Improvement.
From the Mihmukee Sentinel.
Tho trial of half a dozen Bay View rioters
this week, all of whom, except one, have
names which are, as printed, almost unpro
nounceable? has set many persons to won
dering how these people get along without
getting badly mixed up. A well educated
colander, in shaking of the matter, says
that in many cases these alphabetical com
binations, although at first sight
meant nothing and represented loss,
were quite easy to decipher when
once a person has the key to the matter:
“We often get confused ourselves in tho
pronunciation of some of the names. This
is especially so with those of us who have
secured good educations in English, and iu
writing the name of Mr. Wawrzyniakowski
wo are quite apt to sttell it Wauzymakowski,
for that is the literal way. Now, if I was
to write it out as it is pronounced in Eng
lish—as it should be—it would lie in this
way,” aud the son of Kosciusko took a pen
cil and paper and scratched it off like this:
W AU-ZE-N A-KOF-SKY
(W awrzyniakowski)
“Now that name,” he added, as ho handed
it over to the reporter, “is about the worst
oue I know of. Yet there are a great many
others which look fully as bail and which
require as great an effort for the English
speaking people to twist around their
tongues. We have a man on the police
force—Officer Niezerowski. That isn’t
very bad, but very few pronounce it as it
should be—Ne-zo-rowsky. Coroner Czer
winski’s name is easy —‘Cher-whisky.’ ”
Tho gentleman said that “our own Theo
dore Rudzinski’s” name was Roo-jin-sky,
and that Mr. Sokolowski, of Mitchell street,
would answer to Hock-o-iof-sky.
Joseph Skrzypczynski, who is on trial for
riot, thinks there is nothing hard about his
name. After it is reduced a little it looks
this way: “Skip-ni-jin-sky.”
A Second nvenue man, whoso name is
selected from the part of the alphabet used
the least by the English, is quite smooth
afler the rough corners are whittled off. He
writes it Strzyzewskt, but the reporter’s in
formant said it was pronounced “Htretch-e
--ne-off-s y.” A Second avenue molder in
herits the name of Szczepankrewicz, which,
when hauled over a little, is “Che-che-pa
no-off-sky.” Ex-Alderman Hanizeski is
simply “Honey-chef-sky,” when his friends
talk to him.
A Fifth nvenue man has a sign in front of
his house,yvjth.tl)£ following on it:
lUofc SZOYOCZYUHKI,
•.tilklßoflhidu Shoe-maker.
Feoplp j.fi'pnt! the Seventh ward, when
strolling that, way, look at the sign and gasp
for breath,, i tTufiy wouldn’t do it, though, if
they kußw jt wwsiuiply “Leon Soo-zin ski."
Mary Rozmary noow.ski is a dressmaker at
763 Fifth •/vene, and everyone in tho
neighlxifihWd’Wiil tell you that it is simply
Mary R.os-mare-nof-sky. A laborer living
at 834 Seventh avenue, who may some day
be Coroner -or a member of the council,
sports the name of Wojciocb Wesolowski.
Mr. Wesolo e-skis given name, wlien
translated, is George, but still it is pro
nounced “Wi-zow-ick.” Joseph Wojcir
chow-eki, a Second avenue tailor, spells his
name “Wi-se-chow-ski,” when ho spells it.
Mr. John Wykrzyk is a laborer, and lives
on Garden street, and, although his name
looks like a law-breaker, it is nothing of tho
kind. A friend of his says it is Vick-crick.
A Brady street laborer, by the name of
Kazimur Zdrojewski, is “at homo” to plain
“Casimere Zro-yuf-ssy.”
The puzzling* condition of the tongue
when a pciunn who is unfaqiiliar with these
names is occasioned by the placing together
by tho Polanders of two letters which
answer the purpose of one. For example,
“dz” produces the same sound as “g,” cz the
same as “c,” and sz the some as “s,” except
that the pronuncintiation is more empliatic
or longer when those letters are thrown side
by side in a name. Where “az” is used the
sound produced is ‘ ‘eng. ” There are three

Yl/HEN you And It necessary to have a Star#

very liest thing you can do is to give LCiVELL &
LATTIMORF, your order. You then can foel
pretty certain that you are getting It at the low
est mark, for tlieir business is too large and
thoroughly systematized to make a practice of
charging Tom, Dick and Harry i-aoh a different
price, Ix sides they sefi only the leading makes
and w ill have but little to do with inferior goods,
as It Is very unsatisfactory to sell them at any
price. For shoddy things go elsewhere, they
