UPROOTING MULBERRY BEND
A rnmotn Touch Section of New York Dls
in ( titled for I'uik.
Mulberry Bend Is no more. Its old time
glorl s , says the New York Herald , have
gone up In clouds of mortar dust , broken
bricks and dismantled walls. The toughness
of other localities was transitory. That of
thp Dend lived and endured so long as lie
rookeries endured. Now Ihe rookeries are
gone , and the toughness must go with them.
Green grass and bright flowers will spring
and bloom over the spols where murder and
crime have reigned for Ihe grealer part of
a century. Go to the police records and you
will find how transcendental was Mulberry
Dend In Ihe matter of evil doing. For every
stone In the pavements around the Dend
there has been a broken head. Every door
way had Us own Iradlllon of murder , and
every window Us especial brand of rcdolenl
atmosphere. It waxed Into criminal ripeness
and nourished with time , until the edict of
the city fathers went forth. Then , with Its
glorias flush about It and in Ihe ripeness of
Us years , it fell.
Thus It happens that Mulberry Bend has
filled a cycle In the track of time. First the
green lanes , the bees , the clover and the
lowing herds of old Manhattan. Life must
have been a dream In those dajs when you
could stand under the mulbsrry trees along
tjio primitive old farm fences and hear the
tinkle of cowbells as far as Bowling Green.
Next , when the city streets spread and
spangled northward with the years , came
fashion. Mulberry street was dotted with
residences of the old time " 400. " Edward
Livingston built a house here , and the strcel
became one ot Ihe local centers of culture
and refinement. The green grass was grad
ually hidden , and the trees went down under
the carpenter's axe. Then , as the town
spread further norlhward , fashion picked up
her skirls and slepped datnllly out of tlie-
streets , and slipshod vice scrambled In.
Gaunt poverty crouched pallid In the door
ways , and Interm ttenlly Ihe sound of brawls
was mingled wllh drunken bellows.
Mlssry , crime , slarvallon and disease have
had their day in the Dend , It will bloom
and blossom again , but not on the old sol ) .
That Is so poverty stricken and littered with
the drift of years that it has no more the
strenglh or the capacity lo blossom a rose.
For two weeks or more the work of demoll-
llon has been going on , and In a few days
nothing will be left of the old dens and
rookeries so well known to the police but
memories that will eventually "become hazy
traditions.
But Mulberry Dend has many spots In It
crooked length-that will not coon be forgot
ten. Maloney's alley Is one of them. Jutt
now It Is a waste of broken brick and morlar.
The entrance lo Maloney's alley was a nar
row open space belwcen two houses that
faced the Bend. It was paved with cobble
stones , probably seventy-ttve jears ago , ani
the stones are so little worn that under the
light shuBllng tread of the Benders they
would have been good for 100 years longer ,
All about the open space miserable rookeries
were scattered , and haggardi and unkempt
chlUrcn played listlessly about , with blood
less , unhealthy faces. You were almost
, sure to see one or two rum-soaked men lying
around , stupelled wllh drink. Here , In the
old days , before the civil war , Fatty Walsh
, rallied the Dead Rabbit gang and fought one
of the bloodiest bailies that occurred In the
Mulbirry Bend riots. No wonder that Ned
Harrlgun caught the salient feature of Ma
loney's alley In his mind's eye and staged
them In ono of his plays. They were well
worthy of reproduction.
Onlv a few yards away from Malcncy' *
alley , at 43 Mulberry street , Is the spot
where the murder of Carlo Tuzzo took place
about six years ago. He was shot through
the body one night and his assailants were
never captured.
Baudlls * Roost was another feature of the
Dend. It was a miserable opening between
Nob. 57 anJ 59 , and It was here that the
worst growler gangs of the Bend used lo
congregate. Never a week passed that ar
rests were not made from Bandlte' Roost.
Murders were frequent , and the police were
dally visitors. The record of the Roost U
probably as bad as that of any spot in the
llenj.
Bottle alley Is another well known elum ol
Mulberry Bend. It Is not on Mulberry < trel
proper. Its entrance Is between 45 and 4'
Baxter street. It Is a mere collection ol
rookeries , celebrated for brawls and beei
and general poverty. Many Is the man wh (
has been killed In Bottle alley.
The new park which will grace , the site o :
the Bend will prove a great attraction to the
people ot lhat neighborhood. There will bi
plenty ot grass plots , shrubbery and trees
In and at the northern end there will be i
shady shelter for the children. The walki
in the park will be laid out In asphalt ant
the trees which will bo planted around th
plots will consist of elms , locust , Orlenta
- planes , poplars and linden trees. All th
old toll will be dug away and new soli lali
of to the depth ot four feet. The whole par !
will bo bordered with Innumerable and comfortable
fortablo seats.

'Thewl isn't this a slzzlcr ? I'm doing

The speaker was a stout man , says ths
Philadelphia Record , and his impetuous re
marks were made during one of the last
broiling hot days , and wera directed to a
short , fat companion , who was also In a
wilted condition , and whose spirits were so
low that the collar of his negligee shirt was
trailing In the dust.
"It certainly Is a slzzlcr , " was the reply ,
"but what's Ihe use of kicking ? How are
we going lo help It ? Neither of us can go
to the mountains or seashore , and we'd better
keep still and not worry. "
"Well , I'll tell you what we'll do , Sam.
Let's go around to Billy's place and get him
to make us a shandy-gaff. He used to tend
bar In Washington during and after the war ,
and there ain't a summer cooler In the world
lhat ho can't make on demand. "
The pair disappeared around an adjoining
corner , and the next minute slood In front
of a neatly decorated bar , with whirling fans
on each side ot a big crystal chandelier.
"And so , my boys , jou want a cooler , do
jou ? " Inquired the handsome , accommodating
chemist In reply to a demand. "Well , I'm
In Ihls business , and I'm not In It for my
health , cither ; but when you ask me for
the best drink in the world to keep cool on
I am forced lo say truthfully that spring
water beats anything el e. "
"Oh , let up , Bill ; we know that. What
wo want Is a stimulating cooler. Can you
suggest one ? "
"Hundreds , my boy ; hundreds. Suppose I
build you a nlcj 'shandy-gaff ? ' All right , you
say. Well , here goes. "
While the two sweltering specimens of hu
inanity seated themselves on chairs In a
back room , the bartender filled a glass pitcher
about half full of cracked Ice , which he
allowed to run off the end of a sliver scoop
Into Ihe pitcher , and the musical tinkle as
the glistening lumps fell Into the crystal
depths sent a cool wave of anticipation up
the spinal columns of the two eager cus
tomers.
"Tho music makes 'em cool , " said Billy ,
with a sly wink.
Up from the dcplhs of Ihe Ice chest came
next two bottles about the same size ons ot
Bass' ale and the other Imported ginger ale.
These were uncorked and poured Into the
pitcher at the same time. The pitcher held
up lo Ihe sunlight reflected a beautiful golden
brown , and after the two thlrsly individuals
had partaken of deep draughts , the big one
rolled his eyes , sighed with satisfaction , and
said :
"I've been lured back to earth again. Life
Is worth living. "
"Right you ore , " echoeJ Sammy.
After Ihls drink had been dlspo-ed of n
learned dissertation on summer drinks fol
lowed. "Now , boys , business Is a trllle quiet
Just now , and I don't mind telling you how to
make a few cooling drinks , eo that you can
entertain yourself and friends on Sunday I
you happen lo be at home. I still insls
that Intoxicants , unless used very sparingly
and judiciously , are heating Instead of cool
Ing. Therefore , I'll start you off with the
best temperance cooler Unown to man.
"It Is what I call 'temperance egg nogg.
Take a tall lemonade glass and fill It hal
full of cracked Ice. Break Into it two Ires
eggs , and pour In half a pint of milk , wit
Just enough sugar to sweeten to the taste
Then shake It well and strain It Into anothe
Ice-cold glass. Top it off with a dash o
nutmeg. One of these un a hot ctternooi
will make you feel as If you were ( retchei
In a hammock swung on the shady "side of ai
Iceberg.
"Now , I suppose that claret punch come
next as a scientific cooler , but let me le :
jou about a drink called 'claret cup. ' Tali
a glass pitcher half full of cracked Ice. Throv
into It some strawberries , a sliced orange
sliced lemon and some sliced pineapple. The
pour In one pint of plain soda , onha'f bolt
of claret and a sherry glass full of curacc
or chartreuse. To this add three teaspoon
fuls of sugar. After It is well shaken o
mixed , pour it into Ice cold glasses , an
decorate with sliced oranges , pineapple , straw
berries and a sprig or two of green mtn
Then Imbibe It through a straw and Imagln
jourself about to wed a beautiful helres
with a rent Income ot a million a jear.
"It may como about that you will marry
rich , boys , and If you do , of course'Tyou will
Jingle a silver bell some hot day , anJ when
the slave appears order n champagne cup
to jour Ivory and silk-lined lounging room.
Just Instruct your man to make it the same
as a claret cup , but to use a pint of champagne -
pagno Instead pf the claret.
"Did you cvsr try a drink called 'Conroy ? '
Well , tl'at's a smooth drink for a rich man ,
too. When you have your glass pitcher halt
full of cracked Ice , pour In together one pint
of claret and one pint of burgundy. It's nn
alluring beverage , boys , and you want to
handle It gingerly. 'Velvet' Is made the
same way , but Instead of using burgundy or
claret , pour In a pint of Gulnnes-3' stout.
"Now. my lads , you have been good listen
ers , and I'll Just make you a mint Julep
a great summer drink. The mint Is the best
thing In the world for your stomach. You
sea I dissolve this lump of sugar fn n little
bit of water. This bit of. mint I drop in
the glass has got to furnish the proper fla
vor. Press It tenderly In Ihe bottom of the
glass with the spcon , but don't Jam It to
pieces. Put In this a Jigger of brandy , or I
can use whisky If jou prefer. Then Just add a
dash of Jamaica rum. Now , I fill the glass
up with cracked tec and shake It well , Let's
transfer the whole to this cool , clean glass ,
stick mint all around the edges and top off
with seasonable fruit. Now , Jusl stick In
these- two straws , and there you are. Eh ,
beys , who sajs seashore now 7
"Now , to make a 'mint smash * and get all
the medicinal qualities of the fragrant herb ,
you can make the same as a Julep , only you
must crush the mint In the bottom of the
glass.
"When the English actors come over to
this country they drink nothing but a drink
called 'John Collins' In summer. It's all
right , too. Make a soda lemonade , using a
bottle of plain soda. Put In a Jigger of Old
Tom gin , and shako up with ice In a thin
beer glass. The gin U a mighty good thing
for clogged kidneys or torpid liver in the hot
months , and the drink Is very refreshing.
"Speaking of gin drinks , you musn't over
look the gin fizzes. There are three of them
gold , silver and plain. For the gold flz
use the whole of an egg , for a silver use the
white only , and for a plain use no egg at all.
I'll Just tell you how to make a gold flz ,
and that'll answer for all. I'ut lemon Juice ,
sugar , fruits and cracked Ice in a big glass
with a Jigger and a half of Tom gin. Shake
well and strain off. Then Mil the glass up
with siphon seltzer and drink while It's fiz
zing.
zing.For
For the southern man the Santa Cruz rum
punch Is a leader. Dissolve some sugar with
seltzer. Add a Jigger and a half of Santa
Cruz rum , fruit In season , stir up well. Strain
it off and top with fruit. That , my boys , is
certainly built on scientific principles and
can't be beat much m this climate.
"But the old-fashioned hot weather satls-
fler Is a sherry cobbler. You make It with
sherry , dissolved sugar , sliced lemon and
cracked Ice , shaken up well together. Deco
rate with all the fruits of the season and
serve with straws. You can make a hock
cobbler or a Catavvba cobbler Just the same
way , It you prefer. That drink was Invented
long before the war , boys , and It will never
lese popular favor ,
"Let me tell you of a drink that Is very
popular In Germany. It's called the 'Walde-
meister , ' but I don't believe It was ever In
vented by a German. Fill a glare pltchei
halt full of cracked Ice and pour In equal
parts of Rhine wine , claret and champagne
Touch It lightly , boys , touch It lightly , foi
it's a deceiver , and while It may cool youi
body. It's kindling a fire In your brain pan.
"While I am about it , boys , I might a :
well tell you my famous receipts for making
Fish House punch and New Orleans drj
punch. I have never given these recelp'ei
st away to anybody before , and perhaps yoi
In can surprise your frldnds pome diy. For tin
FUh House punch take a pint of lemon Juice
a pint of brandy , u pint ol Jamaica ruin , oni
gill of peach brandy and nine pints of water ,
all Into 4 > big punch bawl. Then add sliced
orange * anil plnenppletrrrxytien all Is ready ,
drop in a big chunk ilahe. and when it Is
cool , drink It. But , my tails , have a carol
It's n knocker unless handled with gloves.
"The New Orleans Ory-punch , ns Its name
implies , Is a southern liifclitlon , and la equal
to the Fish House punch In potency. Into
the big punch howl putVfilnt of brandy , one-
halt pint of Jamaica jrum , one-halt pint of
Santa Crlz , and onehitv'nt ' of lemon Juice ,
and enough sugar dissolved In a quart of
water. Put in plentk o6 fruit and a big

A KENTUCKY ESTIMATE.
It Was tiatctl on the Slzi of n Drink of
VVbl.ky.
"About n year ago , " said Ileprescntatlve
Marsh Arnold of Missouri to a Washington
Star writer , "I had some business at a lit
tle town In Kentucky ; really a little city. I
arrived on Saturday afternoon , and Sunday
morning as I started to the olllce of the very
quiet hotel at which I was putting up , I was
accosted by a dignified , gray haired gentle
man ; ono of the sure-enough old Kentucky
school. As I came into the room ho lifted his
bat In a formal but pleasant way.
" 'This Is Colonel Arnold , I believe , ' he
said ; 'Colonel Arnold , my name Is Dexter ,
sir ; Colonel Dexter. I have no purpose par
ticularly In calling on you , sir , except that I
saw your name on the hotel book , and knowIng -
Ing you to be a stranger , I was afraid you
might find the town a little dull. So I de-
tei mined , sir , to put myself at your com
mand and see It I couldn't do something to
entertain you. I've lived here all my life ;
was born here , sir ; everybody knows Colonel
Daxtef and If you would like to walk about
and look at our old town , sir , perhaps I
might be able to point out something which
would Interest you. '
"This all seemed highly novel , " continued
Mr. Arnold , "to be thus waited on by a leadIng -
Ing clt.ren who was willing to charge himself
with the task of entertaining me during my
stay. Dut ono look In the Innocent and high
bred countenance of Colonel Dexter showed
mo that he was entirely sincere. I told him ,
therefore , that I would like to walk about a
bit and see something of the old place.
"It was too early for church and the
streets were all but deserted as Colonel Dexter
tor and I left the hotel. As wo walked along
he pointed out the court house and told me
stories of the lawyers and the horses and
feuds , political and personal , and was very
agreeable. We had not proceeded far when
he turned to mo and said In an experimental
tone :
" 'Of course. Colonel Arnold , not knowing
Just your habits In that regard , It Is Impos
sible for me to tell whether you ever drink
as early as this , sir. But should you do so ,
sir , my office Is near at hand and I've some
old whisky there , sir , which I keep for my
self and my very part cular friends. Shall
we go Into my olllce. sir ? '
" 1 said 'yes' without a hitch. Colonel
Dexter was so polite as to be almost pe
culiar and I hail heard that these Ken-
tucklans were great men of the duel. I
didn't care to risk hurting his feelings. He
might resent It. So wo steered without hesi
tation for Colonel Dexldn's law office.
"He gave me an ordinary water glass and
a bottle , and I proceeded to pour. The size
of the glass and the deep silence of the
colonel as I tipped thq iflask leJ me to be
lieve that I was In a towu of big drinks. I
always acted like a Homan while In Rome ,
so I spilled out a liberal jlbatlon. Indeed
tie glass was fairly haJJ fulj. As the colone
made neither word ppr [ Sign I filed the
whli'ky In the glass [ away In my stomach
an ! tried to do It wltljouf wink or grimace
I aimed , to make an Impression on my host
and , again I didn't Knqw Jyst what sort of a
motion he'd take as an insult to his hospl
tallty. , ,
" 'Will you have some jwatcr , sir ? ' askec
Colonel Dexter , In a torje qf polite solicitude ,
"Dut I was out for a record , and declined
wth | the observation Jhat water spoiled llquo
as good as that. Thet colonel was radiant ,
ard while I noticed that ho took a much
more modest drink than I , It was clear
had climbed to the very heights In his es
tlmatloti. This shone forth as we stepped
Into the street. A dignified old gentleman
was walking over the way. My new ad
mlr'er at once called to him.
" 'Good morning , Colonel Spencer , ' ho eald
And then , without pausing a moment
'Couldn't you step over Just a moment ,
Colonel Spencer ? I want to make you
qualnted with one of my best friends , sir ,
Colonel Arnold , allow me to present to yo' '
Colonel Spencer. I want you to know eacl
other , gentlemen. You will like Colone !
Spencer , Colonel ArnolJ , and Colonel Spencer
Colonel Arnold , when you know him , wll
bo one of your dearest friends. I just sav
Colonel Arnold take the biggest drink o
liquor without sugar or water , sir , I eve
saw taken In my life , sir , ' and Colonsl DexU
rang out the words like a herald proclalmln
my nobility.
"It scemd sufficient , however , " conclude
Mr. Arnold. "Colonel Spencer and I shoo
hands , while Colonel Dexter beamed ,
never put In a pleasanter two days In mv
life than I did In that little Kentucky town
I often recall Colonel Dexter as ono of th
true flavor of old Kentucky.

The past week has been the most prosper

1804 and 1895. The number of picnic parties
have not only been larger than any week

of Stock * .
NEW YORK , July 7. Henry Clews , head
of the banking house of Henry Clews & Co. ,
writes of tho"situation In Wall street :
The stock market has entered upon a dis
tinctly new slnse ; new not so Inr a to-
spools the main underljIiiK condlllons-ln
which tlicro Is no change- but In respect to
the current speculative attitude nnd ladles
of operators. The triumphant "bull" cam
paign of the lust three months has brought
about n new situation. ITIies ha\c ilsen tea
a illicit that sttrtiilBes even the most ban-
gulnu , and "bull opeintors lia\e mailo ex
traordinary profits. Among conservative
speculators there Is a feeling thtit prices are
now , as a rule , up to what the immediate
facts of the cltuatlon warrant. It Is con
ceded that the geneinl dilft of the condi
tions that tuntiulaluts qiMKcsts the ex-
tieclnlloii of u further advance when the
harvest has been gathered and Its beneficial
after effects upon tnulo begin to appear.
Hut between now and then there Is an In
terval of some weeks , during which pos
sibly no Influential developments may be
forthcoming. An a matter of siK-culatlvo
tactics , It appcurn desirable , to professional
speculators , that this Interval might well bo
u ed for the purpose of te.illzlng profits on
the strong rallies and thereby laying the
basis for icpurchases at a later stage , with
u view to a new upward movement In the
fall. Also , the absence of o | > craters on their
summer recreatlontt Is encouraging to this
sort of attitude.
It la not to be supposed that the bears
will allow tbls opportunity to pass unim
proved. A long experience of conditions nd'
verse to their sldo has made them Imp.i
tlent for an opportunity for attack ; and It Is
not likely they will permit the present par
tial lull in "bull" activity to go unappropri
ated for their benellt. AVe do not undertake
to say how far they will venture In mak
ing reprKils on the reposing "bulls , nor
how far the "bulls' " are likely to retaliate.
Our Judgment Is that the pessimists are
likely to prove cautious , and that the op
timists will not be found willing to part
with any considerable amount of stock at
micli lower prices. Nevertheless the
beais" may be expected to do their best ,
or the euil > future , to test the market at
vhrtt they conceive to be Its weak polntw , as
nuch perhaps from a mere spirit uf light as
rom any stiong hope of making a distinct
mpresslon on pi Ices. The late llerco nt-
ack on the Industrials nnd the attempts to
tlrfen the rates of foreign exchange are a
art of these tactics ; the failure of the
reak In the industrials to break the. rail
road list l" a sample , however , of the sort
f result the "bears" may expect from all
uch movements.
Hut while Immediate conditions seem to
'uvor a temporary lull In the larger bpecu-
atlvo operations , It Is not Impossible that
vents near at hand may revive the buying
movement sooner than Is now anticipated
'ho reconstruction proceedings In the imnk-
upt railroads arc now making rapid prog-
ess , and announcements may be forthcotn-
ng nt any moment which would create a
.lew excitement and bring Into the market a
mass of stocks that have been tied up pend-
ng these readjustments. Moreover , the
iorn crop has possibilities of proving a very
: nportant element In the value of the utocks
f roads serving the great corn belt. Should
bat crop maintain its present promise to
ho end of the season , It will prove a very
'aluable ' help toward the more complete re-
ival of business throughout the country. To
ium up the matter , while the position of
rain at the moment seems to tend toward
, temporary lull In speculation and possibly
.o moderate fluctuations In prices , yet this
ltlon may quite possibly change for a
evlval of "bull activity.
London IB no longer a lending factor. That
market perceives that Now York Is now
capable of taking care of Itself , and of the
'orelgn markets at the same time. It sees
hat a great confidence has taken hold upon
ur people ; that power commands the confi
dence of London , nnd Europe may therefore
bo expected to follow the drift of our homo
market rather than antagonize It so long ns
tends to Increase profits upon foreign
lioldlngs.

LONDON , July 7. The brilliant season o
outdoor sports nnd the approach of th
election seems to have restricted buslnes
on the Stock exchange. The only active
market Is for American mining stocks. On
all hands , however , the movement tends
upward. The British and Co'onlal funds ,
English railroads and foreign securities
were all strong. There was considerable
buying of South and Central American
stock , and particularly lir.izlllan , on the
belief that the deaths of Pelxoto and Da
Uama would help to restore peace. Hank
shales were Improving with bettor divi
dends. Chinese Issues are firm. The Im-
piovement in the iron trarto and In general
business In America kept the market steady ,
the best descriptions again exhibiting an ad
vance and finding favor with Cngllsh In

advanced 1 to 2 points. Other advances
wore Illinois Central , 1 , nnd most of the
others fractional , except Ntvv York Central
and Wabash , which declined U per cent.

Wheat Market Win I Inn but Not Vrrj
Active.
CHICAGO , July C. The wheat market was
firm today , but not very active , and the
actual gain In price at the close was only
Vic per bu. The only states which could
have materially biought up the average ate
now complaining of damage to their own ,
California , JVnshlnRton , the Dakotas and
Minnesota all sending complaints today
Corn yielded to the Influence of the next
crop prospects nnd declined % c per bu. and
oats lost % c. 1'rovlslons show very little
change.
The change In the value of wheat over
night was not very material at the start ,
but such ns it was , It indicated more con
fidence In present prices. For the first tlmo
this genfcon the weather in the northwest
could be culled distinctly unfavorable for
the spring wheat , leaving- out the slight
touch of frost experienced about three
weeks ago. It rained over a considerable
area of the spring wheat region , and where
It did not rain a high temperature pre
vailed. The Liverpool market was quoted at
Utl law , on account of Impiovcmont of
French wheat prospects , It was said , but
more likely due to yesterdu > ' 8 wtaknebs
here. Business In the pit was of the paints
local and light character that has prevailed
all week , but the slight improvement which
marked the opening transactions was main
tained and added to. September opened at
from 70 0 to 707i > c , advanced gradually to
71c to 71Hc and closed nt 71'AC , ns com
pared with 70V at the end of tne previous
clay's session. Haln In the southwest wan
also an Item of the day's news , which was
unfavorable In that it would at least delay
the movement of winter wheat , even If It
did not permanently injure the quality of
such of It us was In shock. The receipts
are small. At St. Louis , Toledo , Kansas
City , Detroit and Chicago the day's re
ceipts were only 67,000 bu. altogether. Hero
nine out of twenty-six carloads received
-sere new , one of which graded No. 1 hard ,
three No. 1 red , and the remainder rejected ,
liradstreet's gave the week's shipments of
wheat and Hour from both coaslB at 2,007,000
bu. , against 1.94t > ,000 bu. on the previous
week. Argentine was reported to have
shipped 992,000 bu. wince a week ago. The
Atlantic port shipments for twenty-four
hours were equal to 270,400 bu , Including
flour.
Corn did not break badly with such ex
cellent growing weather , nnd principally on
account of the fact that there in n very
good demand for the cash article and con
siderable short Interest for September de
livery. Captain I'hllllps and John Cudahy
were credited with being the prlnclpulH be
hind a great deal of Helling which followed
the execution of the Ursi batch of selling
orders. Ixitor ft III the market picked ItFClf
tin to within * ie per bu. of the price It
iloced at yesterun.v , but when tlio end was
readied a He decline had been rMabllMu-d
for tlio day The hlpnicntx from Argentine
for the week wcte ( Wt > .U"0 bil About 2.V,000 )
bu. of No. 2 yellow told hero for shipment
ntto per bu. over the September price , 'llio
du > s receipts wore SSI cnUoadc , and for
Monday the estimates are 135 cars.
The market for oatu was only fairly
active. The early market dlspUijctl n firmer
tone In consequence of fairly good buying ,
Hchwartz-Uupeo and Norlon-worthlngton
participating In tbo * nmo to vonifl extent.
Later n declltui followed , Influenced by a
similar action In wheat and coin , and at
the close prices wore n small fraction lower.
September tniiRed from "IHa to 3\c and
closed at ftom 23'tc to 2lc.
The provision market wnn dull , but In
the main firm. The hog receipts \veru only
9.000 , and for next week lOTi.OOO nro esti
mated , acrilnst 96,000 received altogether
this week. Packing to date Is 1,719.000
head , against l.MS.OiX ) head for the corresponding
spending period of the year before. An
advance of 10" took place In pork nt the
opening , but It v\ns again down to jester-
day's closing price In half an hour there
after , and nt the end was Ic lower for
tbo day. Lard nnd libs vvcro also firm
at the opening , and closed ylth Ine earlv
advance of Hie diy all lost. The demand
for cash moats Is repotted to bo vciy
IH-lit for both consumption and export at
New York.
