GRAIN AND PROVISIONS. Chicago. Aug. 27.—When the wheat mar ket c4osed today the price was %c. worse off than it was at the end of Saturday’s session. It was a dull, dragging market from the start to the finish, and the hold ers of prlvlledges were the best traders. Within narrow limits the action was ir regular. Orders from the seaboard were not large or numerous and foreigners were evidently holding off. December wheat opened at 67%; sold between 68a 67%a%; closing at 67%a%, Cash wheat was In good demand by elevator people. Prices were steady and without change. Corn was Arm until the final few min utes'of the session, when the Inability of wheat to make an advance acted as a damper to the bullish tendency of com. The dry weather West, to some extent, continues to affect the action of com values. 'Mav com opened at 63; sold be tween 63%a52%; closing at 62%a%-%c. der Saturday’s. Shippers were the best buyers of cash corn today. Prices ad vanced 1 cent higher than Saturday. The oats market was not an attracUve one today. The statistic* on that grain were not viewed In an important light Provisions—There was continued Arm- Some of the packers gave good during the balance of the session whilst others sold .tndderately. The close was 5 cents higher than Saturday for January rark and rlbh and unchanged for January lard. • / . FUTURE QUOTATIONS. The leading future ranged as follows: WHEAT— Op’ng. High’st Low'ftt Clos.

Kingston .Jamaica, August 26.—Nows !hn» reached here, from what has hith erto proved a. reliable eource, thunt an attempt 1 was made a few days ago to assassinate President Hlppotyte of Bayti. The attempt, it Is said, %tas made one evening when Hlppolyte was on his way to Ciis country residence, a few miles from Port-au-Prince. Tenfty-'four men, armed w«Ith pistols, wUtloned themselves along the road Which tho president was to take, and, according to arrangement the first shot was to be fired when the Intended victim reached the centre of the l*nc. Escape would then be rendered almost Impossible. A woman was responsible for the fail ure of the pilot. One of the wouM-be asp&ssln* told his sweetheart of the conspiracy and she gave tho hint to one of Hlppolyte’g generals. The con sequence was that nn the evening In question the president sefr out from Port-MU-Prlnce Mth an extra-r»;rong body guard, whllo a squad of soldiers was sent on ahead to search the woods. Several ambushi-d men were caught and placed under arrest, but the rest eluded pursuit. Only two were bold enough to carry out the original plan. These got dose enough to bhe president to fire, but both bullets missed tho In tended victim. ANSWER THIS QUESTION.
