CHICAGO PRODUCE MARKET.
CtifCAno , Oct. 28. ( Special Telegram to
the DUE , ] With the exception of ono rather
"soft BjKt" early , the wheat market ruled
strong throughout the morning scsHlon. The
udvunco over last night's closing prices was
Blight , but over the 1 o'clock closing yester
day was fair. The advance of } 4 ( < tc during
the short session yesterday afternoon was
sufficient to convince the bears and quick
traders that there was a prollt In selling
wheat this morning and they noted upon the
conviction early In the session , the result
being n drop of about } { u from the opening
tlgurcs. Much of the trading was In largo
blocks , and It was soon discovered that the
'offerings were very readily taken at a slight
decline. The buyers were strong houses nnd
their purchases caused u revulsion of feeling
on the part of small traders and n gradual
advance , which was persistently fought nil
the way up. Foreign news was favorable.
December wheat opened ut 73J c , sold
up to 73J < @ 74o , then down to
73Xc , which was the low point for the
session and was reached early. On the up
grade this delivery touched 71e several times ,
but there were very few transactions nt that
price. Whenever a small quantity was bid
Tor at that price there ; seemed to bo n hun
dred sellers and tlio next sale would bo a
fraction lower. Evidently there was much
more December wheat for sale at 74e th.in
was wanted. The price hung about 73o all
the latfer part of the session , with occa
sional fractional variations , und closed strong
nt73J ( ' 774c. May wheat opened at 7tl @ ? $ } { c ,
sold down to 7lJc ) , up to 7'Jo and closed at
There was rather more activity In the corn
pit and a considerable amount of business in
u speculative way , but the fluctuations were
exceedingly narrow , being only KC. In Decem
ber and May deliveries and Jf ( gitfe. in Novem
ber. The closings to-day varied but slightly
from those of yesterday. The demand for
cash corn is fair , though apparently limited
by Inadequate facilities for shipping. The re
ceipts hero are Increasing somewhat , although
still light compared with those of a week
or ten days ago. May corn opened nt 45 ( ig
lfifc ) , sold up to 45 > < fc , down to 45)/u ) and
closed tit 45e. There seemed to bo much
more for sale at I.IJtfc than was wanted. De
cember opened at 41 , ' II < c , sold up to4tjfc ,
down to 41 kfo and closed at llftji ! . Novem
ber opened at 41 % ( ir42c , sold at 42u and at
41 ? # < 1J4 and closed at 41 Jfc.
Oats failed to showany Improvement cither
as to demand or prices. The limited business
passing was again mainly in November and
May , and fluctuations for the entire tegular
( tension were barely } fv. November sold at
25J @ 2 ! > ; < e and May at 2'.ii ' , ( ! < 2 < JV , both clns-
Ing at thu outside range at 1 o'clock. Decem
ber ruled nominally at 2Wc bid.
In provisions winter deliveries were higher
and strong. . For cash and October lard de
clined 5o or to $0.55 and short ribs wciu held
at last night's final price $0.50. Jn the
winter futures of the different articles , how
ever. something of a boom occurred. The
opening was slow , and If anything a little
heavy , but shortly after the morning call the
trade underwent a sudden change. Parties
short of tin.1 product for January became
alarmed over the reluctance of packers and
buyers on last week's break to sell , and ,
showing a desire to buy against their out
standing contracts , prices hpccdilv and rapIdly -
Idly advanced. In the upward turn January
pork rather led , though a good appreciation
took place in lard and short ribs for the same
month.

CHICAGO WVK STOCK.
Cincvoo , Oct. 28. [ Special Telegram to
the Bin. : ] CATTI.C Business was fairly ac
tive , with Httlo or no change in prices on best
and medium natives. Low grades , especially
such asaro neither good enough for Imtdior or
feeder , were slow and hard to sell at any
thing like , satisfactory prices. Salesmen who
had prime heavy rangers claimed an advance
of lOc and salesmen who had no light south
ern Texas steers also claimed an advance ol
lOc , yet thin and common rangers and
scrawny Texans , also range and Texas cows ,
bulls , etc. , sold ns low as at any time. The
real fact \ras that good cattle wore scarce ,
while all other descriptions were plentiful ,
The stockcr and feeder trade was moving
along quietly and steadily , with the demand
mainly for strong weight feeders. Ship

the Hin.l STOCKS Ono of the features o
the stock market was the weakness nnd a decline
cline of f points in Kansas & Texas. Then
Is n deal of mystery hiirroundlng the decliiu
which no one has been nblo to sntlsfnctoril ;
explain , Among the various theories nil
vnnred is that Gould has smashed it for tin
purposunf i > etilnt ? n big block at reduce *

next dividend. Burly bales were at Jf pe
cent advance , but It soon dropped I/ pe

weak and fractionally lower. The genera
liht was moderately uctlvo but nervous. A
the opening liYadlng , St. Paul and Westeri
Union were decidedly strong and Jf tjy pe
cent higher. London was n good buyer. Th
shorts covered fairly and uotwlthbtaudlii ;
the recent heavy elimination of that Intcres
there was enough buying to cause a ftirthe
appreciation of f @J-f lor cent , Heading lm\
ing the lead and was helped by reports o
largo earnings. The retried settlement be
twccn the Western Union nnd Postal con
panics nnd the agreement to advance rate
did not have the clTcct on the stock that wn
expected. Grangers , although stronger an
higher for u time after the opening , were n
feetcd by reports of fresh rate cutting an

Made Ills Own Coflln.
Macon (111. ( ) Correspondence Indian-
ipolis Journal : "Old Bill Watson , " as
10 calls himself , lives a few miles south-
ca&t of this plneo in Moultrio county ,
tlo is very eccentric , and is cbielly
viiown to fame as the man who made
liis own collin. A visit was recently
made to Watson's quuvtors and tlio
collin presented for inspection. The
article is made of plain black walnut ,
tlio lumber having1 been cut by Watson
eight years before ho finally concluded
to coiibtrnct a collin for himself. Five
years ago. after the lumber Inul been
seasoned for eight years , bo &et to work
upon its manufacture.
bfcTbo lumber was soaked in oil and
then treated to a coat of varnish. At
Iho bend bo put a cross-piece , which
raises that end some live inches higher
than the other. Ho snid : "When I lie
down 1 want my head raised. " The
reason given for its inanufiicturo is bo-
bausc of tlio shoddy chiiraotor of Iho
shop-made article. This , bo says , will
last , being made of inch and a quarter
btulT , well put together with eigblpcnny
nails. Ho says bo docs not expect to
use it for some time , but thinks it well
enough to have it ready when wanted.
Mr. Watson is seventy-tlirep years
old , wasa Mexican boldierand his claim
was allowed a short time ago. lie wns
also a faithful soldier in the late war.
His wife IH quito u young woman , and
seems to euro as little for the prpsoneo
of the collin as does bur husband , llo
lias lived on bis present farm for forty-
four years.
