There art pretty good reasons for believing that a strong combination baa been formed to bull corn. The conspirators, it is believed, bars their neadquartere at the office of R. H. Parks At on Nsw street, Hew York. They art rich New York- era.

who are as familiar with produce speculation as with stocks, and whoara as willing to buy on as the other, when cheap, or sell one as the other when dear. The operations bar bean oarriad on ao Car through 11. 8. Nichols but there are indications that Iindblom is in the secret and an aUj. Tha story is also told to-nigh that these New Yorkers bare made arrangement with certain of the Trunk lines to transport a food share of the 6,000,000 bnshsls of contract corn now In store here, and between the ocean steamship companies and the railroad officials gat a rebate of nine cents per boshel on the rates now quoted.

A gentleman, who is recognized as an agent for this New York pool, offered to wager any reasonable amount thai half the stock of com now in store would be moved out within the next thirty dare. Something within the last forty-eight hours has boomed May corn from 61 the figure, asked on the curb to-night, and May wheat from $1 03X to il 06X, the price now asked. Nichols Co. were very beaTV buyers all day, and so was Lindbloom. It ia said that there was little bitch Tuesday In the programme, which tbis New York pool thought they had arranged 'with the railroads.

It was straightened oat, bowerer, and the advance, which waa checked for a while, started up again. Alter ttw call this afternoon wheat ad Tancad J485ic and corn 53JC- MaF corn stopped at 6fis and May wheat at 1 OOK. This Tery short rally was caused apparently by the existence of a large number of stop orders on wbeat at 1 09, and 00 rn at about O4X0. ben the former could not i be had at SI 00, nor the latter at 64c; there followed a scramble and the figures went np (3ct and then Jo in a twinkling. 1 be report of the GoTernment Agricultural Bureau, published this moraine concrrn- inz the condition of the winter wheat, was bullish in its influence, although it was ao non-committal sums equivocml that is was bard to form any conclusion from ft Then wai i pretty general scare among the grain bears.

Roche took in, it is saukl, toe million of short wheat put out by him on Monday, presumably for Ira Holmes, and there was hedging all round by the big betters. Lester's crowd, bowerer, are bearish as ever. McOeech, it Is reported, has ao much confidence In lard that he is very anxious for a break, so as to get some more of it. lie has given Instructions to his partners, so it is said, upon the erst indications of weakness to hammer it. The belief is becoming current here that Armour has sold out his pork and wants it to break so that he can get it back at cheaper Prices, but pi visions continue strong.

Lard or May stopped at 111 87 and pork fur 16, a trifling advance over yesterday. NEW YORK STOCK MARKET. A rCaTHER ADYAKCB IS PRICCS O.XB OF TBI LIXVlTABUt TRIKOa TBI MARKET IX A BJCTTKB CONDITION THAR FOR TWO MONTHS FAST Hat ABASH LIASX TUTUOAT'a busjjikss. Special to th CowriT-JovmaL New Youk, April 11. A broker in a position to get at Mr.

Gould's views said today i "I am rery confident of a further advance in prices, because I know that the market is, having a natural movement. Tbe advance is not in any one stock or in any set of stocks, but general, from one end of tbe list to the other. There is good buying, too. of bonds, which is always the basis of a genuine bull movement. If people think that Mr.

Gould is making this market they are rery much mistaken. lie is doing very little. People would be surprised if they knew bow little. You may ret assured that it is essentially a natural market. That is why we may be disappointed about reactions.

A great many people are willing to buy stock on a reaction, and when prices, begin to sag off they feel lame and start early, which sends prices back where they were beore. Of course, we may get a decline of two or three points, but if you remember how tbe market acted last July you wlU recall the fact that there was scarcely any set back to the advance until prices had moved np from twelve to twenty points. Tbe situation to-day is stronger than it waa then. consider it better than it baa been at any time since Garfield was shot. There Is confidence, good prospects, good business, and an actual, oona fide demand for stocks at these prices." Tbe consummation of tbe Wabash lease baa turned the attention of operators to the probable effect of tbe lease upon Wabash bonds.

It is believed in well-informed circles that tbe bonds will have considerable ad-Tan oe. as tbe lease would scarcely have been made if it bad not been satisfactorily demonstrated that the abash Company would earn, including new business, enough to make tbe meeting of its fixed charges a certainty, A rery shrewd operator said to-day that It was necessary for insiders to buy a considerable amount of Wabash stock in order to reckon confidently upon their ability to ratify tha lease. lie thought Wabash would show very handsome earnings until niter this stock had been marketed at a profit, Insiders in St. Paul tell their friends that the common stock will sell at 110 this month, and well toward to 120 by next falL It is known that persons almost invariably baring accurate information on tbe course of the stock bare been buyers between 103 and 104. In at least one case, tbe buyer has placed a limit on bis stock ten points above the purchase price, with the expectation that It will be sold before bis return from Europe in the fall.

Bull points on the Northern Pacific were eJreuUted this morning, and have proved good. W. a. Webb 6t Co. bad the buying order in Oregon Transcontinental.

Brokers supposed to represent insiders took Northern Padflo preferred, and in both cases an easy advance was effected. Tbe bavin1 anai. front the manipulation is thought to bare qujte largely by aborts. Pfailadel-S. phi aukt the common stock at tbe advanoe.

In the first half boor there waaa reaction and the advance at the opening was lost, bat after that the whole market recovered and at 12:30 the net result of the forenoon's business was au advance of to 1 over last night. "The features of tbe forenoon were D.f L.

and Union Pacific, fit. Paul, Northern Padfio and Hoc heater and Pittsburgh, all of which advanced. There is reason for believing that a good deal of the two first-named stocks has been taken out of. the street by actual purchasers, for investment, and not for speculation. It is just possible that tbe large profit which baa accrued on purchases of these stocks made a month or six weeks ago may draw some of it out of Investors' hands, but not likely to any great extent.

The advance in Lackawanna, including tbe dividend, since February 19, has been 13M per and ia UnionPacifio 10 per cent. Borne considerable amounts of the other dividend-payers bare also undoubtedly been taken out of the street, but probably not so largely as these. Hannibal and Kt. Joseph waa a feature this morning, and though there waa not much trading in it, the common advanced from 88 to 40 and the preferred from 83 to 85. The Vanderbilta generally were quiet and firm, as was also Western union.

After 12:30 there was at first a decline in tbe general market of to and 1 per cent, on Denver, but by 1 o'clock tbe market bad recovered the decline and advanced ahuva the nravious hlo-hest Drices of the day for the most active stocks.

MitcheD, the English Sparrer, Highly Com-plimanted bythe Talent About York, GENERAL. SPORTING HATTERS. ISotHal to tha CorirJnmol. New Obxxaes, April 11. Tbe closing day of the races was successful in point of at tendance, it being larger than on any day except the second.

The racing was one- sided, there not being the semblance of a I cloe finish in any of the events run. Tbe first race, over hurdles, one and a i quarter miles, was a rery easy victory for Moscow, who won by six lengths. Von Holtke was beaten off. Tbe netting was, Charier Bush SoO, field $36. In the second race between Ballast arid Saunterer, mile and a quarter, the betting was even, but Ballast at the end of three- quarters of a mile took the lead and could 1 hare won by a hundred yards.

He simply cantered In, winner by thirty lengths. Saunterer quit like a steer. The Cottrill Stakes, a mile and a half. was another rirtuallr walk-over, as Drake Carter won as be Lked. Centennial cut oat the running, but I was soon passed by Tilford.

who led for over a milo. Then Donohuo let out Carter, and away he sailed from tha rest of the gang, coming in almost in a walk fifteen lengths ahead of Campaninl, the latter a couple of lengths ahead of Beechenbrook. Tilford could hare come in third, but was rery strangely pulled up. Centennial was last, and badly cast at that. Tbe betting was (Carter waa barred): Centennial, $73: field, $51.

The mil dash was rery easily won by Hickory Jim, woo took the lead and was never headed, winning rery by six lengths from Balluo. The betting was: Hickory Jim, S50; field, 60. Tbe four-mile dash -had four starters, the talent making Annie O. a favorite over the field. Eulaue led for a mile and a half, closely followed by Bush.

Then Annie went to the front and stayed there until orer three miles had been run, when Cooper moved up easily, passing her, and won the race, hands down, by thirty lengths. Four or fire minutes later Bush came ambling in. and later Still Caine Eulalie ia the other direction, shs navinz come to a complete standstill in the tourtu mile, and was walked tuc to the siring. The whole quartet warf badly used up, Cooper being the freshest. Tbe betting was: Annie tlSO; Cooper, ISO; field, S8.

Tbe spring meeting, as far as it has gone (four days), has been fairly successful, as well in the matter of attendance as in tbe character of tbe racing. Tbe largest crowd out on any one day was on Tuesday, when the Cotton Exchange handicap was run, there being in the neighborhood of 8,000 per us present.

Probably half that number did not witness the sport on any other day. Tne best racing ot the week was also on that occasion, iu tue event referred to. Wedding Day proving him eif very nearly a ttrt-clss race uore. Consid- ering the tune of the year and toat tbe winner uad full weight up, tue tone; showed tue performance to be a very creditable one. Saunterer, on tbe strength of some alleged fast trials, was made a sharp favorite, but he cut it shamefully after running 1 about mile, and did not come in as good as fourth.

Ballast, by i some good judges, was looked upon as a sure winner, partly on the strength of his supposed hue condition, and that he had to carry such ligut weight. He, too, quit rather badly ou tbe home -stretch, but taere was really uotning discreditable in any ordinary animal not being able to keep up with the tremendous pace maintained by Wedding Day, wbo was ridden to per.ection by Sped-inao. Lute Fogle had his backers, but he was nowhere in tbe bunt, and would not have been if he had gotten a good start, which he did not. My iuipressiou is that Badast was Jiut a triiie too hisb In flesh tor a braising race, becaiue a few days afterwards he fairly ran away from Aleck Anient in a mile and a quarter, while in the former race, considering tne weights, Ament's performance was really the better of toe two. DRAKE CARTER'S RACE in the Pickwick was decidedly a good one, the time (2:12) being fast when tbe time of the year (the oist ot March) and the unseasoned condition of the colt are taken into account.

It is true that among the other twelve starters there was nothiug first-class; but there was no real contest when tue homestretch was reached. Carter being half a dozen lengths in the van of the next nearest when the eighth-pole was passed, if this colt continues to improve, and coaias to tue post in good condition, the horse that beau him in the Derby will, I think, capture the big turf event of the spring. Apollo's performances hare were sadly disappointing to his owner, although in his first race, on the opening day, he looked decidedly too high and unseasoned. In the Howard Cup, however. Air.

Morris thought him fit to "run for a man's life," and toe 'talent" made him the hottest sort ot a favorite. He was really nerer in the race. The Duke of Mootaibau set tbe pace, ran In the lead from beginning to end, audi won is a bio oauxf by a dozen lengths. If Apollo wins any of hi stake engagements at Louis vilte I shail be disappointed, seeing the hot company he will bare to meet there. Fellowplay, though, is in fine form, and ought to be a tremendous horse by the tune be reaches Louisville.

He ran one race here. If race it might be called, seeing that be was aloue from start to finish, the tussel being for second place. Tbe two-year-olds which have shown here are rather an indifferent lot, the best of them being an ordinary-looking fellow, Lloyd Daly, by Eyrie Daly, out of Leveret. But he would be nowhere in such company as George Kinney and Ascender proved to be last year. Col.

Simmons makes an admirable President and Judge. He is impartial and scrupulously exacting and vigilant in requiring square and honest racing, and if "ths boys'' get in their work sometimes it is under circumstances where he is powerless to prevent it. I bare my doubts about New Orleans becoming a racing point of note any time In tbe near future. It is in a measure Isolated, away OOTSIOS1 TBS LIVE BACI.10 CCRRS5T. The mam thing In its favor is tbe fact that it altonie a good plaos for wintering horses and training them for their early engaga-mente.

ith a bundred horses or so on the groond, what more natural than that there snouid be a spring meeting! But with all that, toe eclat ana enioususm, tne big crowds, you find further North where tbe real cracks of the turf contend tot supretn- acy, are lacking here.

"Seventy-five cents, ash, is the bland response; and yoa fork it orer like a little man. It is not so rery surprising, after all, that half a million or so ot. people do not torn out to witness tha New Orleans races. In turf matters the aewpaper fellows here are not what might be called avfait, as witness tbe following from tbe man of tbe Times-' Democrat: "Joe Murray, the celebrated racer, after resting here a dar, was sent on Memphis. It ia probable be will not appear in tbe Derby at Louisvil as be has not bad work."

Pinchbeck is likely to be one the first to detect its bearing and profit accordingly.

In little affairs or that kind be one wno does not wish to lie left. Toe ab9-Dca of Col. Robert Harlan, familiarly known as Bob Harlan, causes some comment. No well-regulated racecourse can afford to be without him. His presence, indeed, is as indispensable as was that bottle and those occasional "nips" to Sairey Gamp.

Not to see Bob Harlan on any ordinary race-course is not to see the races; not to hear him in the pool-I room bidding for first choice is not to visit such places. He is one of the everlasting racing fixtures, as much so as is the Derby or the Oalu.
