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.

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 pronmiciat.ions for the letters. If it requires emphasis, the Polander will first write the letter sand then place a z beside it. The soft use of the letter is indicated thus s, while the ordinary use is s. CLOTHING.
