( SJ c for December anil to 77J < @ 77 > < e for
May was the first movement , but the ilecllno
wiis short-lived , there being good buying by
Milinltie , lloilnmn fi Co. anil by Hutchlnsoii ,
and the up turn was greatly usslsted by the
covering of local HhortB. There nppeuied to
bo moro outside orders to be executed thiiu
of Into , though there Is still room for Im
provement in that respect. There was a fair
amount of bushiest done nil morning , the
highest iKiint touched being tHfc } for " Decem
ber and ,8' ' o for May. This closing w"is llrm
ut this , thi ) highest point for December anil
nt 78X" for May , showing a fnilu ovor.vestor-
day's close of JiTi/'Yc and of 4c for thu two
months respectively.
The strength in wheat was reflected some
what In tin1 corn pit , hut not to the same o.\ '
tent , Hit ! iidvauco scored for corn being
but > Vc. lighter receipts hero and still
lighter riveipts expected were strength-
cnlng features , but besides this there
was neither news or circumstances outside of
the pit to inllucnru values either way.
Cables guvu spot corn llrm with moderate do
limnd and unchanged prices. Lvor ! | > eel
limited this October delivery lower , but No
vember and December higher. ilutchinson
was also a liberal buyer , both of cash corn
the futures , and the market felt the inlluence
of the purchase. The opening wiis about 'hc '
above yesterday's closing quotations for No-
4 , vombcr and December at 41c and nt 44c for
I ; Mny , which was yesterday's close. Thu
f close was llrm at thu highest point touched
? f 41)fe for November and December and lee
f I for May.
Oats in the speculative market were only
W moderately active nnd nt times trade was
i' . jxsltiveiy dull. During the ih-st hour consid
erable weakness was shown and it was not
until wheat nnd corn rallied that there was
any strength developed. Prom 'JO 'i1 at thu
opening May improved to 2 > jfc , which was
bid at 1 o'clock. December sold sparingly at
! ! 5X ( ! " d November closed at ! ilc bid , after
selling from 2.1J < at the opening oil to 'J. > . % ( <
yfiJSfo on the spot.
In provisions trading was disappointingly
slow. Yesterday's activity led to the gen
eral belief that the dull period had termi
nated and Unit from this time forward a
fairly act I vo market at least might bo ex
pected. Hence , when business to-day , after
n brief spurt in the morning , fell back into its
old slow rut , traders promptly changed their
tactics and n hesitating feeling assumed con
trol. Products , huwrver , were quito strongly
held , and as compared with last night's clos
ings , .lanuar.v pork was advanced fie and

the UKR. ] STOCKS The market presented i
moro stublo appeuranco and these who ex
peeled largo action were disappointed. Flue
tuatloiiH on active proK | > rties were narrowci
than for several days past ami eonfinei
mainly to 1 per cent on Oregon railway
which advanced two points , with only a fev
trades. The opening was easy with sales a
n fractional decline. There was a good de
mand for stocks In the loan crowd and pay
incnt nt 1-U ! to K per cent premium had i
bcncfloiul effect and induced the shorts ti
cover. The bulls also took hold moderatel ;
and a bolter feeling soon developed am
prices reactcil to 1 i > er cent. The reductioi
of freight rales in the west was used by th
bears lo depress prices on the theory thu
earnings would full off. These reported fo
the second week In October , however , shov
fuir pains over the same tlino last year. The ,
had litllo offecl , as the imirket remained stuV
born and resisted the efforts lo force price
down to any extent. The weakest proiwrtic
on the list were Northern Paoltlo proferrei
which after rolling ) f , proko 1 > on rumor

the Insiders have shaken out the few weak
holders remaining nnd thru mark thu price
up. They have been a football In Wall street
for six months nnd big money has been lost

There was u heavy falling oft in the r <
ccipts of cattle to-day , the fresh arrival
numbering only twenty-five cars as ngalns
ono hundred and seven curs yesterduy. Th
market was fairly nctivo nt about stead
prices. The local packers were liberal buj
ers of native corn-fed cattle und they als
took several bunches of run go stcen
Hutchers' stools was very slow and there wu
comparatively nothing of that descriptio
selling. The number of feeders sold wa
small , although there was considerable it
qulry.
' . Hogs.
The market opened with twenty four loads
of fresh arrivals ns against thirty-eight yes
terduy. The market was about steady , with
yesterday's close , the range of prices belnir
M.HVri4 ( 15. The main feature of the market
wus the tendency to pay one price for every
thing. Of lute there bus not been so much
difference between the prices paid for com
mon and good hogs as usual , but to-day the
range of prices wus still narrower. Com
mon loads of hogs in nome Instuncea went nt
* 4. 10 unil the buyers were very slow to bid
more than that for the best. Only three
loads brought more than that price. The de
mand was fair and the market quite active.
Everything was taken at an curly hour and
the pens cleared.
There was nothing doing in the market.

A Victim ofSim Dried Itrlck.
Nnw YOKK , Oct. 1U Hev. Father Kirncr ,
who was injured in the ruins of the school
house on 116th street Monday , died this
morning.
Prosperity ot'tlic 1lu1)re\vo.
Brooklyn Kaglo : "NothiiiK1 has im
pressed mo so much. " suid one of the
prominent dry Roods rnerehmits the
other day , "as the way in which the
" .lobrows have multiplied and prospered
n this country. Not further hack than
H 1815 there were only o,000 ( ) Hohrows
hero. To-day there are nearly 750,000.
So _ you will sco that while the populn-
ion of the country has increased threo-
'old in forty years it was UO.IHM IHK ) in
1885 the Ilohrow ] > opulation has in-
ireiihcd in a very much larger
proportion. Of course there are
moro Hebrews in Russia , Austria
11 nd Germany than thorn are in Amor-
'ca hut wo como next. If the figures
ivhich I have given may ho taken as a
basis for estimating the future growth
of the race , it will not bo long before
, his country is in the lead. " I asked
ny friend to what ho attributed the suc
cess of the Hebrew , and ho said : "His
thrift is proverbial , but I huvo yet to
meet a man who will deny that ho is
mblio spirited and generous in the sup-
> ort of benevolent and worthy institu-
, ions generally. Certainly ho is law
iibiding. "
A Mule Up a Tree.
A mule can do a good many things ,
but it may bo doubted whether ho cau
climb a tree , The Mobile Register ,
however , tolls of a mule that climbed
into a tree and died there standing. It
was during the great Hoods in the Ala
bama and the high waters in Anril ,
ISS-I. The mule probably did not climb
the tree , as the Register suggested at
the time , but rather , as Mr. Dobardcle-
ben says , was drowned on some of the
plantations along the river and floated
with the tide and lodged in the
branches of an oak tree near the O'Noil
Smith landing. When the waters wont
down the mule was left lodged in the
tree. Of course in the process of tiuie
the dead mule's body decayed , and the
bones and skin , dried out by the wind
and sunshine are there yet. The form
doesn't seem very much changed except
on close inspection , and at a distance
looks exactly like a real live mule hang
ing in the tree.
