blno among the elevators for the purpose of
raising storngo rates on grain from % c to lo
for first storaqo nud from Ho to Jtfo for sub1

H accord the proposed deal stands a poor show
H of going through The way the tcnttcr now
H stands , there is no sottlcd or uniform rate ,
Trading was largely local in its character

There was not much change in the cattle
market today , values remaining about steady
at Saturdays close , but btlll there were
those who called the market strong One
thing Is certain , bowevor , that shippers must
not place much confidence In the stability of
the present prices , as a heavy run would bo
certain to send the market down to the
lowest point again There were some of tbo
best cattle hero today over seen in the
yards and as high as $3.10 was paid for some
two-year-old grade Herefords and 14.90 lor
the holfers out of the same lot Thogenoral
run of the steers sold at $2.80 ( 3.70. There
wore only a tow stockers ami feeders bore ,
but the demand was light and tbo number of
cattle sold for that purpose small A few
natlvo feeders sold at $2.40@2.55 and some
stopkors at % i. 15@3.30. Native cows sold at
$1.15@3.35 and bullu at $1.50(31.05. (

How MonkejH tir ) Caught
Almost all monkeys which ono sees
in the United States como from Gor-
gona , a little village which is situntod
a short distance from the Panama rail
rend , The inhabitants of this district
are mostly native negroes , for no white
man could bear the climate without
drinking plenty of whisky nnd almost
constantly swallowing quinine The
whole region is marshy nnd covered '
with extremely profuse tropical vogcta-
tion At night there arises a thick
vapor , laden wth } fever , which hangs
over the woods like a cloud
This region of wood is the paradise of
the monkeys , writes a correspondent
They ravel in troops around the woods ,
led by an older monkey When the
people recelvo the information that the
traveling monkey troops are near the
village they repair to the woods in
crowds in chase of them Their plan is
very simple They cut a hole in the
cocoanut l\rgo enough for a mon
keys paw The nut is then hollowed
out and a picco of sugar is placed in
it A piece of string , is then fnstoned
to it , and it is placed in the road of the
approaching monkoye It is known
that monkeys are very inquisitive ani
mals Soon enough they see the lone
some cocoanut in the grass and hurry
to examine it thoroughly It is a curi
ous sight to sco how they climb from
the trees , chattering , to talto a good
view of the concern
It does not take them long to And out
that the inner part contains a picco of
sugar Ono of the boldest and greediest
sticks a paw into the nut to got the
sugar and grasps it as tightly as ho can
But his list is so largo that ho c ' annot
draw it out of the hole again with the
sugar , which tie holds fast to , cost what
it may The negroes now pull the
string until nut and monkey arrive in
the vicinity of their ambuscade In the
meantime the other monkeys wonder
what is the matter with their comrade
They hurry to see where ho is being
pulled to with his paw in the cocoanut
They crowd around him , chattering and
gesticulating to their hearts content
Now the great moment has como
The negroes have a largo not ready ,
and they spread it out ever the unsus I
pecting monkeys and before they know
it they are prisoners They are sold to
the otnploycs of the Panama railroad :
and roach the North American raar-
kets through commercial dealers

the export of rubber from the ropublio
of Guatemala to tbo United Stutes dur
ing the year ended Juno 80 , 1880 t
amounted to 904,170.69 , and ttio average
price was 60 cents per pound This
quantity is likely to bo iucroased in the
future , owlne to the slrlngont law en-
noted nnd being moro strictly onforcotl
by \ the government for the protection of
the rubber tree from a bleeding prouoss

to which it hnd boon subjected by care
less natives , nnd the probability of
nlantingon the part of intended colon1
ists Inasmuch , however , as from flf-
teen to twenty yours nro required to ob-
tnin a profitable result from planting
the rubber tree , it would not bold out a
favorable J inducement to the agricul
turalists , unless plnntcd in connection
with the banana tree , the fruit of which
could bo disposed of on a paying basts
until the rubber reached the point of
profitable production
