CincAoo , Aug. 21. A big spurl of buying
was the feature In the wheat pit today.
Much of the enthusiasm soon tired hut there
was enough earnest hollovors In .tho advanc
ing tendency to sustain the prlcu up to the
close. Corn was on the whole firm although
closing a shade low for fcjeptotnhor. Oats
nro unchanged and provisions although very
dull , are -ISc higher for pork , SUJtfc higher for
lard and 35c higher for rlhs.
Wheat nt the opening was ahout from % a
tojfa higher than the closing llgtiros of
Bitunlay , advanced from -V to > < fo mot-o
nnJ then prices receded } c. held steady , re
covered slightly and the close wat about Jf c
higher for Soutotnhor and from % to Jfo for
Decomher than Iho close Saturday. There
was a general Impression that the general
visible supply would show a largo decrease.
The prospects of early congressional legisla
tion were brighter and there was
liberal speculative l/uylng. Shorts
were quick to take alarm and covered
freely , whilq thcro was llttlo for sale. A
Rood deal of the buying was supposed to bo
for O. H. Smith , the "plunclng" nephew of
Ed Pardridgo. who was believed lobe short
a line of about 81)0,000 ) bu. UUc In the ses-
Ion wheat was not so well supported. 'Iho
top prices were made on the spurt and wlum
Iho plungers got their wheat back there
was simply a good steady market.
There was consldor.ihlo bull news In corn
for the day. but the receipts suddenly
loomed up very largo and this appeircd to
offset other influences. The gcncr.il esti
mate wns for ! ! ' . ) ! ) c.irs and receipts wcro 401
cars. When the official crfllmato for Tucs-
nay was given out It w.is for DM cars. Prices
covered but > c range. Trade was not large.
Transactions wcro scarce In oats Changes
In quotations were small. Thcrejwns some
bidding for ribs and lard by Armour's
brokers , but offerings could hardly bo
dragged out of any of tlio small number
of traders , who appeared to have onoutrh
Interest In the business to sit around in
the neighborhood of the pit. The small
movement of hoes was given us the reason
lor the advance In prices.

Wood Is one of tbo oldest giapo growers In the
ItlulTs , and has made a study of the business ,

STOCKS AN IIHNDS.
Tendency or ltn"lnc In Securities U'n In
tlio Direction of Improvement.
CNr.w YOIIK , Aug. 21. The tendency ot txf-
fairs .it the Stock exchange today was in tlio
direction ot improvement. Tlio only stock
which nt any tlmo showed an Itnpart.int do-
line from Saturday's closing was Qcncr.il
Electric , which yielded 8 f per cant to 30
right at the start uivlar n boar utticft , only
16 be followed by a quick rlsoof fi } per coin.
The sellers were so bully worsted In thli In
stance that they desisted from making any
further raids , and speculation steadily
gained strength under the Influence of ml-
vices from Washington favoring the repeal
of the Sherman silver law , and the con
tinued arrivals of gold from Europe.
Several leading operators are credited
with espousing the bull sldo and tholr pur
chases occasioned n good deal of timidity
nmomr the shorts , who , when they attempted
to cover , found tlio offerings comparatively
small. The result was reflected In a general
advance , amounting to 4' per cent In Man
hattan , ! i per cent In Distillers , 3 per cent
In Hurl Ing ton , 2 } $ per cent In Sugar , B'.f ' per
cent in Western Union and Chicago Gas andY
Yto 1'ij per cent In the remainder of the
list. Final quotations showed a reaction of
H ' ° % Per cent from the highest , but specu
lation left off stronu in tone. The total
transactions ivcro 103,311 shares , including
12,105 unlisted.
The Post says : There were large receipts
of gold irom Kuropo today and despite a
sharp advance In sterling exchange inoro
was purchased at the Bank pf England. The
Impression Is now general in London that
the bank will ad vance its discount ruto-to 3
or 5 per cent. Whether such a move would
or would not servo to chock the American

qulto uncertain , It would at least glvo conti
nental exchange rates n sulllolent twist to
force some specie out of the French and
German Innks.
Paris exchange on London rose today to
the level of a premium on gold. The move
ment of the Interior markets is slow ,
shotting the inllucnco of this imported gold.
Iho picking up of gold In London began
with the close of Juno. Since then tlio
foreign steamers have delivered at New
York not less than $113,000,001) ) of the precious
inet.U. Yet the United States treasurer's
gold balance lias within that time increased
only S3SOO,0H , wlillo the specie supply of
the Now York clearing house banks has
actually decreased § 4Car > .600. There is , of
court > e , only one explanation of the
phenomenon. The newly Imported gold has
gone where It will bo most imperatively
needed , and it is needed somewhere raucti
moro imperatively than In the Now York
national binks.

MONDAY , AUIJ. 21 ,
The week opens with light receipts of both
rattle and hogs , hut ag \ run of sheep.
Thcro were but fltty-ntno fresh loads ro-
celveil and fully a third of these were native
hooves of fairly good quality. The general
market was not a creat deal different from
that'ot Saturday. Local dressed bocf houses
wcio practically the only buyers , Iho tight
ness of money ami tlio indifferent tone to
eastern advices being an effectual bar to
speculative activity. On desirable dry lot
steers prices hold up fairly well , but on the
ordinary run of half fat and grassy stock
prices ruled \\eak to 5c nml lOo lower
than Saturday , and trading was slow. Good
to choice 1,1200 to l:500-lb. : beeves sold at from
$1.05 to S-I.W , with fair to peed 1.100 to 1,200-
lb. steers : it from ( .70 to $11.05. Fair to
tioor stuff and odds ami cuds sold nt from
1.70 down to i. Some commonest western
and southern cattle were still In iirst hands
nt the close.
The cow market was active , with prices
steady to stronger. Extreme prices for
poor to prime grades were from St. 25 to ! i ,
with decent butchers' stuff larcely at from
$2 to $ . ' .40. Calves were ste.uly tit from $2.GO
to $4 ; rough stock unchanged at from Sl.50
In stockers ami feeders b isincss wns only
moderately active , but prices were well sus
tained on all decent grades. Thn supply of
both fresh and stale cattle u-as somewhat
limited but the demand was fairly well mot.
Trading was largely at from $2.50 to SJ.
Good to choice feeders are quotable at $2.70
( S3.00 ; fair to good at 2.50@J.70 and com

Tith ItKK.l Not many really Rcod cattle were
onlhotnnrkct today andaiiiKoodly number of
that grade were culled for pi Icon loaned to
nimucsq , Sotnn of the bust lots sold from 5c
to llc IdRber. Tat western rangers al o .old to
rather bettor adtauligo than at the close of
last week and Texans were steady. I.cau
natives wcro iioth'c'tcd and wcro slow nt
former low prices. The supply consisted of
nlKMit 8,600 natives , 3,600 westerns and 4,000
Tovam. Of cunlniou cattle there too many
for tbo present demand. Native steers sold
prlnclpilly nt from (3.50 to (1,60 ami from
(1.05 to J2.75 bought most of Iho cows , hi'lfers
and bulli. Westerns were salable at from
(1.00 ui(4 and from (1.50 to (3.25 was the
iiKo of quotations for Toxans.
The demand for IKUS was active. It was
sulllclenlly so to readily absorb Iho 28,000 bend
ollered and at better prices than were paid on
Saturday , ( . 'otuptt-uil wllh that day's opening
( imitations there Is an advance of from lOc to
I5c In IlKlit and froni20c to 25c In medium
and heavyweights and Ilio general market
was from Uc ) to 16c blither than at Saturday'n
closo. The choicest liciity grades sold around
(5.40 and fancy IlKht were quoted at (0. Al
though the'iiuallty was not as good as of late ,
tbo greater part of the supply was good
enough to sell abo\o $5.26. Ordinarily
such a tumble lit prices as was ex
perienced last week would cause a
pronounced curtailment ot biippllos , but
mmiolhltDt like 13,000 head arilvud today.
This Is only a llttlo short of the recent heavy
average , and altogether too much of a Htraln
for the market to withstand In lls present
debilitated condition. Ituyers Insisted upon
further concessions and got them , sales Indi
cating a decline from baturday s prices of
from lOc to 15o per 100 Ibs.
bheop were quoted elf at from (1.13 to (3.70 ,
and Iambi were down to from (2.50 to $4.75.
I.O\Y irt these prices are , buyers could not bo
foubd for nearly alt of tlioolforln s , and unless

still lower. Western sheep comprise the bulk

The use of the Brooklyn Bridge hv
the residents of Now York and Brooklyn
in the decade since it wns opened has
far surpiissed all the calculations of
unglnccru and others in advance of the
completion of the btrttotui-o. The wis
dom of the men who widened the bridge ,
so thnt room was afforded on the road
ways for tenms to p.ibs each other and one
slow-moving load could not bet the pnce
for nil the trnllic , has been amply vindi
cated , and the policy that rni&ed the
height of the truces so tljat curs of
standard sue could be used instead of
the bquatty ones it was first proposed to
run has albO been shown to bo wibo. The
grip in use upon the bridge curs has
been shown by the bucccss attending its
constant employment to bo admirably
adapted for the use to which it is put ,
the life of a cable being much moro pro
tracted than if the grip used with ordi
nary surface cars wcro employed. The
system of switching cars at the termi
nals has proved successful for a fur
greater trnllic than it was expected it
would bo called upon to handle. In the ten
years the receipts of the bridge from all
bourccs have been aoout $10,000,000 ,
according to the figures furnished the
Now York Post , and this sum has been
nearly equally divided for maintenance
and improvements. The original cost of
the structure was 815,000,000 and the

You can scarcely enter a binglo dress *
ing room without finding the horseshoe
in a prominent position , and ub the acto
moves to and fro so will ho carry thi
lucky symbol with him. Mr. Irving
carried his horseshoe to America ant
baolz. One well known actor is baid t
bo in pobbebsion of ono of Garrick'b teeth.
Should he fail to carry it in his waist
coat pocket ho would go about in fear
that the fates would frown on him and
his work. Scores of uctors wear talib-
inans round their necks which , of
coin-be , are hidden from view ; but in the
mutter of stugo superstitions it will bo
hard to beat thut which is in vogtio ut
every theater during the rohearaal of
u. play , bu it now or old. The last three
or four words of a now production are
never spoken during the period of the
rehual bill of the piece ; most frequently
they are never written by the author.
The Hupoi-btition of the theatrical world
iti that it would bo certain to bring bud
luck to the piece if the lust words were
pronounced on the btago bo'oro the IIrut
night. But ab the play miibt have an
end , and it should bo known to all
present thut it is at an end , the actor or
actress intrusted with the lubt lines
usually interlopes u word or two. Somo-
tiines it ends in this fashion :
'And ' now , furowoll. All is happily
Bottled. I can now return homo und
welcome , Tum-tum-tlddlo-um. " Or it
may bo ( as is Irequontly the cube ) : "Wo
can now depart hence , my friends , und
have u little rofrobhmont. "
"Yes , yes ! " cries the actor passion
ately at rehearsal , aa ho ends the play ,
"all is forgiven. Kneel down , my dar
ling girl ; my bravo lad , kneel here at
my feet and I will bless you with a
penny sponge cuke ! "

MANY WOMEN LAWYERS.
They Found Opposition at rirst , but Arc
.Sou1 Miiueriiim.
Tlio number of women who have
pained admission to the bar is much
arger than has been generally faup-
losed , says the Now York Tribune.
Most of the western law bchools and
uauy in the cast admit women as well
is men students.
In some of the states women had much
difliculty in obtaining admibbion to the
bar oven after the law bchools had
granted them diplomas. Mrs. Bella
\ . Mansfield of Mount Pleasant , la. , was
ho first woman to bo admitted to the
[ iractico of the law. She passed the
lecossary examination in Juno , 18(19. (
Tlio bocond woman who became a law
yer in this country , HO far as is known ,
was Miss Lamina Uarkalowof Brooklyn ,
N. Y. , who was admitted to the bur in
Mibbouri in March , 1870.
Tlio third to gain the desired privi
lege was Miss Barah Kilgoro , who was
K i urinated from the law bchool of the
Michigan university in March , J871.
Among the women lawyers whoi-o
names are best known in this country
are Mra. .1. Ellen Foster , Mrs. Bolvu A.
Lock wood , Miss Lolia J. Kobiuson , Mibs
PhtcboV. . CoiuiiiH , MibH Alice 1C. .lor-
dan , who alone has a tleirrco from thn
Yale law school , and Mibs Mary A.
Ahrons , well known for philanthropic
work in Chicago.
Some of the women In tlio various
states of the union who have become
members of the bar use their legal
knowledge only in caring for tholr own
propertv , others are engaged exclusively
in olllcc work , but bovoral appear in
court and tranritut all the usual business
of active practitioners ,
There are bovorul firms in the west in
which the husband and wife are partners
in carrying on the occupation of attor
neys and counselors.
In one case the husband is entirely
deaf , and the wife consequently has tlio
larger share in carrying on active liti
gation. The profession of the law lias
not yet become BO popular among women
as that of medicine , but tlio number of
women who practice an lawyers has
greatly increased within the last five or
nix years.
