Tbe stock market to-day was very dull and
uninteresting for the railroad list outside of a
few shares, which were Influenced by special
causes, and the whole attention of traders was
concentrated upon industrials. The opening of
the market this morning was made at some
decline from last night's figures except in in
dustrials, which were all slightly higher and
made further improvement in early trading.
A heavy tone marked the dealings in the regu
lar list throughout the day, and the attack
upon Louisville and Nashville dropped that
stock 1 per cent., though a large portion was
recovered before the close. Northwestern was
the weakest point in the list, however, and sell
ing ex-dividend of 8 percent., it retired 1% per
cent, at the close, and coal stocks followed,
though the late rally in Lackawanna recovered
most of the loss in that stock. The rest of the
list remained within the narrowest limits
throughout the day, even St. Paul fluctuating
over a range of only % per cent. The market
finally closed dull and steady, but generally at
small fractional losses for tbe day. Advances
in industrials were on the same scale, however,
as the late weakness neutralized a large propor
tion of the improvement of the morning Final
changes of Importance iuclude only losses of
1% per cent, in Northwesiern and 1 per cent,
each In New Jers ‘7 Central and Louisville and
Nashville. Tue sales were 102,000 shares of
listed and 29.000 shares of unlisted.

Tbe Nun’s cotton review says: “Futures
opened lower, further declined, partially re
covered, closing quiet and steady at 3®4 points
decline from yesterday’s closing prices. The
early decline in our market to-day took place ih
the face of stronger report from Liverpool, and
was due to sales to realise on the late advance,
prompted by favorable weather at the south,
where there was a cessation of the excessive
rain reported yesterday from the uorthern belt
and Atlautic coast, with higher temperature
and generally good conditions for growing
crops. The partial recovery was due to the de
mand to cover contracts on general principles
without any special cause. But business was
kept within a smaller limit, owing to a disposi
tion to await the report from the department
of agriculture to come out to-morrow. Rumor
said that this report will indicate the condition
of only 82 percent., and aome decrease in the
aggregate acreage planted for the next orop.
Many of the bulls thought such report will
cause an advance in prices. Large port receipts
and excessive stocks on hand remained, how
ever, an incubus upon operations for a rise.
Spot cotton was quiet.”

Chicago, June 9.—After the close of the
Board yesterday a dispatch was shown stating
that the French Senate had amended the bill
reducing the tariff on wheat so as to make it go
into effect at once. On this intelligent:: toe
prlos of “calls” was advanced on the curb.
The consequence was a firm opening this morn
Ing at an advanced price of %o over the closing
price yesterday, in spite of the fact that prioes
were % penny lower at Liverpool. There was,
however, free offeriugs apparently by persons
seeking to make a soft market to buy oa. The
consequence was that July, which opened at
96%c, quickly sold off to 97%c. This was fol
lowed by good buying for New York for local
account, and an advance movement set In an 1
aborts began to cover. The price advanced
irregularly to 98c, though transactions at the
top figure were limited. The decided appre
ciatlon in values started a free realizing move
ment and liberal short selling. Under these
influences there was a reaction to BS%c in the
last hour with some minor fluctuations near the
close, the result of covering hv shorts. The
market closed steady at the price last named.
Oora opened strong ui sympathy with au ad
vance of % penny in prices at Liverpool, but
weakened under free selling by local traders,
rallying again, however, with wheat. July
started at 59%c, against 59c at the close yester
day, sold off to 59c and then took a sharp up
turn when the estimates for to-morrow came
in, showing light expected receipts. July ad
vance* to 69%c. There was free realuing oil
the way up and the bears took advantage of
the situation t weaken values by offering
large amounts without selling muen. The price
broke badly near the close and closed steady at
58%c. Oats started weak at 44c for July, soon
fell to 4S%e, but on other grain showing so
much strength advanoed *4%c, then toward
the close, broke with corn and closed at 48%c,
within %c of the bottom price. Provisions
were quiet, with imrruw fiuctuatiuus. Septem

close, compared with the final figures yester
day: Pork 15c, lard 5c and ribs 7%e.

IN THE ARCTIC CIRCLE.
Return of an Exploring Party After
Intense Suffering.
Prom tbe Chicago Herald.
Wasbberton Pike, au English explorer,
has just returned from the Arctic circle,
writes a Winnipeg correspondent. Leaving
Calgary in June, 1689, Mr. Pike proceeded
to Athabusoa Lauding and from there to
Fort Unsolution, on Slave river. Here he
secured tbe services of two Indian guides
and helpers and started for the barren lauds
in search of musk ox, cariboo and other
large game.
On this trip Mr. Pike went as far north
as Kish river, this being the river on which
Frankliu’s first expedition to tho north pole
was Ibst. He experienced many adventures,
and the party was lost for fourteen days
and endured terrible sufferings. They
started to cross the Yukon range of moun
tains to the Pacific coast, when after
junrneyiug on twelve days, they found that
instead of being, as they supposed, on the
McLeod river they were on what afterward
turned ont to be the Nation.
Here the guides admitted that they were
lost, and nothing remained for the party to
do but retrace their steps, which they did
with but enough previsione for a few days.
In two dayt they were out, and, to make a
Jong story short, they starved for fourteen
days.
As an example of tbe terrible state of af
fairs, some huudreds of milee were tramped
with bare feet on ice, and their frozen con
dition when rescued was simply horrible,
while some of the parly were reduced from
cold and hunger eo ae to be totally helpless.
It was afterward learned that they were
but a short distanoe from the lake, aDd thnt,
had they been in a position to have under
stood tbe location, their destination would
have been reached in a very short time.
When asked to describe the barren laude,
Mr. Pike said that it was an immense tract
of barren rock on which grew a kind of
mosß and shrub on whioh deer that run by
the thousand feed. There are immeuse
lakes among the rocky bluffs, and the waters
are froztn in the cold season to the depth
of from seven to nine feet. He reports the
temperature as low as BO' in the
winter, but in summer months, July and
August, he says It is very hot. Six months
during tho year tne sun never shines on
these barren lands. Mr. Pike is one of the
few white men who have succeeded iu kill
ing the moose ox, and the only white man
who has ever trod the path of the Franklin
sufferers on the Fish river.
The travel during this trip was almost en
tirely done on foot, dog trains being used
for the carrying of provisions and wood.
There are no laws in tbs country but those
of tbe Hudson Bay Company, and business
is carried on entirely without the aid of
money, their currency being so many skins,
a skin being valued at 50 cents.
E'cape of Prisoners.
The report that prisoners have been and are
constantly escaping from that malignant gaoler
—liver complaint—is fully corroborated by the
self-liberated captives. Hostetter’s Stomach
Bitters are, they lay. the means by which they
get rid of their fettera. Few altogether avoid
the bondage of this ailment, and few are unac
quainted with its signs, viz.: pain through tbe
right side and shoulder blade, furred tongue,
yellowness of the eyeballs and skin, sour
breath, sick headache, dyspepsia and constifia
