Ciiicaoo, Aug. 17.—Continued fine weather
tbrou .diout the west, easy early cables and
prospects of increased receipts caused lower
opennig for wheat futures this morning. Fol
lowing the temporary early depression thrra
wasa period of strength, griwing out of the
large export clearances reported. New Orleans
cleared ;60,000 bushels, which, added to the
shipments from the eastern ports, made a total
of 570,000 bushels o 5 wheat, besides 21,000 pack
ages of Hour posted. The market firmed up to
7,v4c for December on this news, while Septem
ber rallied to TTHjb. But tue improvement did
not hold. The bearish advices from the north
west and free selling orders from Minneapolis
broke the market in a very snort time Me.
September going to ’,\c and December to 76c.
It was claimed that Minneapolis had seventy
cars of new wheat to-day, with nbou. 200 cars
estimated for Monday, and the cash market for
No. 1 hard wheat there was l@2c lower. Pri
vate caule- were generally encouraging to hold
ers, though lata public ones were weaker.
During the last hour ot the session the market
was heavy and aslightsbrinkage in speculatives
took place, many of the smaller clas i of longs
unloading rather than leave their trades open
over Sunday. Corn r led quiet with occasional
periods of temporary activity. The feelinglwas
easier and slightly lower prices were estab
lished. A weaker tone was due to the fine
weather aid larger receipts. The demand was
rather light and offerings larger. A prominent
local operator, who has purchased liberally of
late, was r.ot buying as much as usual and the
market ruled easier in consequence. Cables
were firm, but the domestic markets averaged
Lie lower. The market opened at yesterday's
closing prices, was easy and declined >*c, be
came quiet, changing blit little, and closed (£@
yjc lower man .vest rday. Oats were tra led
into a moderate extent, most of the in crest
centerin tin September and May, esp daily in
th* last named month. The feeling was easy
and prices declined slightly. Quite ago id busi
ness was transacted in the market for mess
pork, and the feeling was unsettled and p ices
irregular. The early sales were made at 5e
advance, but the pressure to sell weakened the
market and Didoes declined .o@4oc on new de
liveries and 15@ :0c on January. During the
latter part of the sossion the market was
steady, and prices lOe, and cLse 1
steady. In lard the trading was fairly active,
and slightlv advanced at the opening. J-ater,'
however, the market weakened and prices re
ceded 5@ Oc and closed quiet. A good specu
lative business was transacted in short rios.
Tiie market opened a trifio stronger, and sales
were made at 2tjc advance. F'ree offerings,
however, were on the market and prices de
clined s@7lsc on near futures. At the close the
feeling was steadier and prices advanced 5@

THE GREATEST OCBAN RACE. 1
Rival Steamships Test Their Speed
Across the Broad Atlantic.
oia the Philadelphia Press.
New York, Aug. 15.—The voyago to
this country by the brand new steamship
Teutonic and the City of New York wisa
great ocean race. It was a contest of speed
from beginning to end, the most remarkable
that ever took place. The City of New
York boat the new gem of tho ocean by
thirty-three minutes, and did it iu such a
fashion that tho admirers and backers ot
the Teutonic arc quito willing to jiav their
bets and say nothing. Three times during
the voyage were tho two fl mting twin
screw racers in even water, eae 1 drawing
its lost pound of steam to gain the ad
vantage.
The New York traveledjten more knots
than the Teutonic during t ie trip, and was
delayed on three different accasi ni by over
heated machinery. The Teutonic was de
layed to some extent for seventeen hours by
foggy and disagreeable weather, and during
the presence of the mist three-quarters and
sometimes half speed had to be resorted to.
Both ships encountered rough weather.
They met rain, adverse winds and high head
seas, and the ele neats are responsible for
tho fact that neither steamship logged as
many as 500 knots on any one day of the
trip.
THE OCEAN RACE DESCRIBED.
A clear sky, a close, choppy sea and a
fresh, westerly wind were the ruling 1 le
ments when the Rome and her two rivals
steamed away last Thursd iy afternoon.
Tho R ime started off at It) o’clock a. m.,
followed by the City of New York at 1:30
o’clock p. m., an i th® new Teutonic at 2:05
o’clock p. m. The New York proceeded
slowly out of the renowned Cork humor
and found the lofty light of Roche’s I’oin
abeam at 1:53 o’clock.
The way iu which tho New York tarried
in leaving the harbo - gave the Teutonic a
cli ice to niak“ up the thirty-live minutes
which she lost in sta -ting, and so when th ■
oilier on the New York’s bridge rciorted
Roch>’s Point light abeam, the Teu omc
was just lapping the stern of the City o
Now York. Tue Teutonic was tr iv’d og
twice as fast ns her rival at that titn°.
When Capt. Franc s 18. Laud, thy o ...-
mandor of the New York, found the leu
tonic abeam he gave instructions to tue
"llicer on the bridge, who telegraphed bel w
for more pead. T.ien the live six-J iy ccn
test began in genui le sty e.
The Teutonic appeared to Lave the most
speed at first and gradually forged ahead.
But the thumping of the triple expan-iou
engines soon told favorably on tiie New
York, and half an hour "after leaving
Roc ue’j Point astern the two voiS'is wore
again on even terms. Then to the Fast .0
light, where the c urso was ch inged, it was
nip and tuck, neither vessel gainiug more
than a foot at any lime 011 tile other. A 1
the passengers wore on dock, and in their
excite neat s touted them ;oivs hoarse. So
closedid kins'ea ners travel that the s iouts
and handkerchief waiving of tie passengers
of oaca vessel could be plainly ueard a.i i
■pan oil tho other. The turn breasted the
Fastnec light iu even water at 5:22 o’eli ck,
an i tho.i the voyage prober 'begun.
A NfP AND TUCK CONTEST.
The New York then settled down to a
steady 19-kuots-par hour speed, and at dusk
ike Teu o lie was several cable lengths
astern. The New York beaded North S.V
west while tuo Teutonic steered straight for
tho westward. Alien "turning in” time
came to the passengers of the New York
too Teutonic was still in sigiir, hut far
astern. Winn they arose on Friday morn
ing she was nowhere to bo seen.
Friday opo ed with a strong breeze from
tho not th west, which, as tho day wore 011,
increased 1 1 a moderate gnlo with a very
sea. The passengers of the
New York scoured the horiz in in ail direc
tions with their glasses, but failed to bring
the Tent mic within the range of the lens.
Toward 3 o’clock on Friday at: moon
(land day) one of the engines of tile (Jitv of
Now York became over,seated and had to
bo stopped. Tho Vessel continued to drive
through the sea with o ie engine at the rate
of 1* knots an hour. The overheated engine
hud been stopped just two hours wiie.i°the
Teutonic was announced astern.
She nas coming along at u groat speed.
In an hour she was abreast of the New
York, and then she assumed the 1 ad. Sue
did not carry her honors Ling, however, for
the cooling process had its effort on’the
overheated machinery of the older craft,
and she set out to overtake tho Teutonic.
S e succeeded finally, and once again tho
White Star liner was loft i 1 the wake. Tue
two vessels lost sight of each other the same
night.
tiie teutonic again in sight.
Early on Sunday morning the people of
the New York were speculating 011 just how
much they would beat the rival, wueu the
machinery became < vei heated again. This
tune five hours were partly sacrificed, and
tho Teutonic era .vied up again u:id hung on
tor several hour*. When the New York
was ready to go ahead at full speed she re
sumed first place handily, and at noon the
Teutonic wa< out of sight.
On the 13th, Tue dav, the machinery
again became overheated, and for the third
time the Teutonic hove in sight, coming up
from a point abaft the bean. The New
\ ork was then going slow under one engine.
The Teutonic managed to steal a lead of ten
mile3 on the occusi in, but when righted
again the machinery of the New York
worked qfjfth great smo ithness for the re
mainder of ttie voyage. The New York
overhauled the Tout uuc late on Tuesday,
and in four hours bad her lost astern. Bhe
did not see her again until she entered port.
MISHAPS TO THE TEUTONIC.
The Teutonic, too, liad her difficulties
during the voyage. Green firemen, wuose
s rvice had bo ome necessary througn the
strike in England, caused her a i!e?ay of
many hours, bomg unable to supply a suffi
cient quantity of steira for the demand.
Two days of strong gale aud high sea and
seventeen hours of a dense fog also plaved
havoc with her good i t -ntio s. In all the
New York lust about fllteen hours by her
machinery. The exact time of the New
York’s passage was six days aud fourteen
hours. The Teutonic consumed six days,
fourteen hours aud thirty-three minutes.
As comparod to the maiden trip of tho
City of New York, the noted performance
of the Teutonic is far superior. The Ne w
York came westward for tie first time in
August last, aud it took her seven days
eleven hours and thirty-nine minutes to
bridge the Atlantia Tho City o; Paris’
maiden trip was accomplished in six days,
eighteen hours and fifty-three minute l
