SEBASTOPOL'S DOOM.
The IIlHtorio Old Town Mknly to Fall
London Daily KOWH : Tlio historic
old fortrusa town of tlio Criinoun poiiin-
Bulu upponrs to bu dcHttnud shortly to
suffer tinolhor full. This tiino it is the
young and hudding coiumcfco which of
Into ycurs his : lent life and movement
to wluifvud , iiH.sistod to fobuild nnd rc-
nooplos her tveota. and attracted to her
coniniodioiiH hind-locked luu-bor the
lilies of nil tlie maritime nations of
Kuropo , which ia about to depart from
lien1 , and leave Sobasitopol to regain the
military ! l"ll naval glory which slio
'
wan so' rudely bereft of thirty-three
ycurd ago. As the Novoo Vromya ,
writing on this subject , sontoniously ,
remarks , "Commerce does not frater
nize with war nor Nourish under the
moiith of the cannon. ' '
At the time when the construction of
the LozofY Sobttstojol railway scheme
was unilor the consideration of the imperial -
porial council , the question was fully
discussed whether Sebastopol should become -
como exclusively a military port or at
the same time a port of commerce. "At
the time , " remarks the Novoo Vromya ,
"no ono dreamt of the reconstruction
of the Black _ sea lleot , except as n ro-
n.oto possibility in the uncertain fu
ture. " It was the future uncertainty
which at that epoch decided the gov
ernment upon making Sebastopol n
port of exportation , and as such the
place has to a certain degree prospered
greatlv during recent years. It is im
possible , however , to crcalo great com
mercial centers at will. Solmstopol is
Hiluatodat least 100 vor.-fts from the fer
tile regions of Taurida , whence her ex
port industries are drawn.
It should also be remembered that
Kolmstopol has never really possessed u
itlass of tirst-class merchants , properly
ro called , and those commercial agents
vho have of late years established
themselves there urn almost exclusively
moupicd in the shipment of grain.
' /hoy are chiolly representatives of
largo Jewish houses in Kngland and
Prance , or more particularly in London
nnd 1'aris. These agents have never
linl from themselves or their principals
the fuel that their establishment at Sebastopol
bastopol was dependent on the tempo
rary permission of the naval and mil
itary powers which hnvo virtually con-
ti oiled the place , and it is for this rea
son that , despite the immense profits
realized of late years in the grain ex
pert trade of Sebastopol , these merchants
Isa
und agents have never embarked a
rouble in the erection of inaga-
y.inos and stores , but have
hired the government granaries and
jnagav.ines r allowed their grain await-
iiiL' shipmontto accumulate temporarily
on the open wharves , and protected i't
HJ best they might from the elements.
Their economy and prudent foresight
appear to have boon well grounded in
the result.
Now it appears the government , act
ing upon the advice of the naval ami
military administrations , has decided
to exclude all maritime commerce f roir
the Sou Hi bay , which in future will inO
reserved to the imperial navy. This
exclusion is equivalent to n suspension ' ,
of the cereal exports from Sebastopol
The maritime commerce of Sobastopo !
will certainly bo transferred to Thee
dosla by coast , which is only foui
hours' sail further eastward. This
transfer will no doubt bo easily ant
rapidly accomplished. The ancloni
Kulta , at ono time notorious as tin
greatest slave market between Europe
und Asia , possesses natural advantage :
highly induolvo to its future eminence
ns a Ulaek sea , port of the Taurida. Ito
will bo necessary only to construct i
liranch line of railway from Ujankoi
on the Lozoff Sebastopol system to-Tho
odosn , n distance of 110 vorsts ; but m
Djunkoi is only distant 159 versts fron
iSobastopol , it will bo soon that the nov
port of Theodosia will bo reached fron
tlio interior with a saving of forty-nim
vorsts of railway transit. Resides this advantage
vantage , Theodosa Itself is situated in
the fertile region of the peninsula , rid
in export products of many kinds. A
good road connects Thuodosia will
Kortch , a distance of only ninety vorst
nr about sixty English imlos , and will
the transfer of the commerce of Sebastopol
topol to the former port , there will b
every incentive to the rapid connectloi
of Theodos-a and Kortoli by rail. anA
glance a the map will convince anyoni
that under thebo circumstances Theo
ilnslu is destined to become in future
Nourishing industrial center.

CHICAGO IMtOOUCE 1UA11KET.
CHICAGO , Sept. S. | Special Telegram to
TUB llr.r. . ] The wheat market was deficient
la enthusiasm to-day. The bear spirit was
in control. The news wus bearish in tenor
and the speeulat ivc sentiment leaned stroiiRly
the name way. Cables were cnaler all uround ,
nnd domestic crop news was more favorable ,
pcncrnlly speakliiff. The weather abroad Is
at hist Improving , mm harvest returns are
panniuf ? out better thnn expected aceonllnp
to advices received from several sources.
The volume of hpcfiilntive trading wus light
and the tendency of values was
strongly downward. The market was
lacking in that nervous buoyancy which
has characterized it of late mid wheat has
puz/.led the bear operators by checking de
clines and causing quick rallies after every
little break. The power of recovery wn
gone to-day. Hallles were feeble and every
time there was a reaction the market found
lodgement a little lower down. Thus Decem
ber , winch opened at ! ) . > f r or J.'c lower than
yesterday and sold up to l'UKl'i ' worked down
to tt""sc : , then to IWfc and then to Vil4c , ral
lying to S0c , , ; , but again settled to Olt' c and
evinced only a spasmodic ability to recover
the ground. Hutclilnson was a fairly liberal
buyer through the scsBion , but he did not
"buck the crowd' ' with hU customary energy ,
lie seemed almost as tired as the nmrkot
nnd nn destitute of vim. Cudahy and four
out of live local operators pressed the market
on the hard spots and the majority of bulls
Becm willing to stand back and wult for
lowur prices. The government report , due
Monday afternoon , is expected to stimulate
speculation , but the bears are awnitiug its
receipt with about as much eagerness as the
bulls. They say they will sell on any buljie
it may cause. To-day October ranged from
VRJ' e down to lill e , nnd May from ( M.e to
074c. The feeling nt the close was , weal ; at
nearly inside prices.
Corn was moderately active and though
llrst sales were within a fraction of lust
night's close the market quickly weakened
ami linally broke oft about Ic on near futures ,
recovered some , but at the close seller Sep
tember was about Ic lower than it closed
last night. Seller October nbout le lower ,
November Jje lower and May about ! IHC
lower. A largo operator , who is supposed to
bo heavily long , commenced selling curly ,
and his olTeriugH quickly turned the market
downward , and the weakness greatly in
creased when it was announced that ' . 'Oil ' cars
were expected Monday , ami October which
luiil sold early at 45v l5'iC ' , broke
to4l4'u , with a few sales at He. Subse
quently there was some reaction chielly on
covering by shorts and October sold to 4r c ,
cased off , changed some , closing at about
44 < tye. Long futures , though quite weak , did
not decline as much as September and Octo
ber.
ber.OnU
OnU lacked snap to-day , ruline rather
heavy all along the line , with a decline of S ,
@ ' .jc established. Receipts were larger than
expectea , with nn improvement in the in
spection , as about 23 pur cunt was contract
grade. With the estimated arrivals
for Monday " 55 ears , and increased offer
ings for No. 2. Trading was slow at the in
side prices. Aside from October , which wus
in some demand at about % c decline , nml
May at USJ GW c , light business wus re
corded. Cash lots of No. 2 in store sold ut
24.ViC with most of the day's business con-
liiied to the sample market.
In provisions the day's changes in prices
Indicated a rather nervous feeling. Around
.tho opening pork und short ribs for near by
deliveries were depressed by the yellow
fever reports coming from Florida. Subse
quently , however , the breaks experienced
were considerably more than recovered , nml
closings all around were at prices only
u little under outside figures. The
upward movement was accompanied
by frequent lluctuatlons , nnd trade
seemingly failed to command confidence ,
Lard , us usual , was the strongest article on
the list. Compared with last night's closing ,
pork for September and October rested ut uu
advance of 7.4'c , for November of 20e and for
January lOc. Year nnd January lard closed
unchanged , September nnd October at an
improvement of lOo nnd November 2e
higher. Short ribs wcro advanced 10c for
September and October and Co for Junuury.

CHICAGO , Sept. S. ( Special Telegram to
THE Bnn.l CATTLE Trade was slow and
prices lower on all classes. Some prime
westerns sold from 5 to lOo lower than was
bid yesterday , and anything in the native
line that was not prime sold lower. Cow
stock that hns been soiling so well fora week
or two wus loQ'Mc lower to-day with more
of that class among the arrivals than any
other. The pens were full of cows snd com
mon Block , which is rather unusual for Sat
urday , and just why shippers sent in such
stock for Saturday's market is hard to
toll. There were only a few loads of Tcxutis
on sale , and they were not wanted unless nt
lower prices. There were no range cattle
among the early arrivals. The general mar

aggregated 107,1'Jl shares to-day , the market
being strong on most of the list , with small '

the same ns last night's closo. Tlio feeling
was strong , Western Union being one of the
most attractive stocks , and while there were
in some instances slight reactions from the
best figures , the close showed small improve
ment in most of the list , the day being

wheat crop has been insignificant , and yet
custbound shipments from Chicago are be
ginning to jllle lip rapidly. The New York
banks have been for some time making
ready for this anticipated drain , and they
have not in years ; been so well prepared to

Telegraphic advices say that the pack of

hold of the rice crop and with n shortage of

Cotlco sales for legitimate purpose are fair
at unchanged prices. So far as speculative
prices are concerned , they are stimulated by
the strong advancing tendency cabled from
Europe , which acts on the Hio and American
markets in a bullish way. It appears , how
ever , that deliveries in Havre call for good
average Santos , and therefore the flurry
abroad is rooro against that particular grade

Statistician Prime says there is no doubt
as to the serious damage spring wheat 1ms

says : "Frost , would not now injure corn in
Kansas , and I'think it is safe to say that the
greater part of the corn in eastern Kansas

It is still a little wet and cold In Iowa , but

The oat crop this year is the largest over

Saturday , Sept. 8 , 18S3.
The market \vas almost bare of desirable
beef cattle aside from ono bunch which was
held over from yesterday. For that reason
the trade was very dull and few cattle
changed hands. Values were nominally
steady. There were plenty of feeders hero
and they wore mostly natives and light
weights. Tlio demand was not very heavy ,
but a few loads changed hands at prices
ranging mostlyat ? 3.003.25. Butchers'
stock was in light supply and the packers
paid 2.40 for some pretty fair western cows
averaging 900 to 1,000 pounds.

The receipts of hogs were light and the
quality very common to-day. The market
was 5u lower on heavy hogs nnd about steady

sold in good season ,

CHICAGO , Sept. 8. [ Special Telegram to
Tim But : . ] The financial situation hero and
throughout the country is in much the sumo
condition ns u week since. The long pre
dicted increase in the exports of gold to bal
ance the deficiencies made by the failure of
exports of produce and merchandise to equal
our imports fails to materialize , and the
pessimists who have predicted monetary
stringency from such sources have so far
been disappointed. Nor arc there any rea
sons for anticipating the development of
such conditions in the near future or the ro-
verse. Europe continues to bo a large buyer
of American securities aud bills drawn
against such purchases are ample to keep ex
change down to u healthy point. Exports of
cotton and other property may confidently
be looked for in the immediate future , hcnco
no material outflow of gold is lluely during
tlio remainder of the year. The increasing
volume of trade in all directions is causing
corresponding demand for discounts at Chicago
cage banks. But they are well fortified with
funds , and good paper , or that backed iby
choice collaterals , H readily accepted at 5fe7
per cent , 5(30 ( being the usual ligures
for advances on grain and pro
visions. The movement of Monday
to the spring . wheat sections is a
trillo larger than a week ago and as the end
of another week is likely to witness a ma
terial augumentation in the movement of
that cereal to market a corresponding en
largement in the call for money with which
to handle it seems certain. This , however ,
will bo largely balanced by the money re
turned to the city iu payment for goods , the
increase in the latter belngdecidcdly murlced
the current week. The jobbing trade in dry
goods and miscellaneous merchandise wn'a
seldom , If over , more nctivo at this period in
former years und prices for most descrip
tions of goods are firm.
Trading in stocks in Now York was Inter
rupted by the observance of "Labor Day" oa
Monday which cut off ono day's operations.
Nevertheless a largo business was transacted
nnd a llrmor feeling prevailed during the
greater part of the week nnd prices averaged
higher. Coalers nnd grangers received most
attention. It wus also noticed that several
stocks that hud been practically dead for
some time past were brought prominently to
the front und sharp advances wore recorded.
Hcports of damage to the crops had a de
pressing effect on holders nnd the gen
eral feeling was less "Bullish" than nt any
time since thu upward movement started.
The coal business is good und the production
Is largely in excess of last year. This-gives -
coal roads an increased tonnage , and at ad
vanced rates affords a chance to earn more
money. The impression prevailed that nl-
tlioiiL'Ii the wheat crop has been damaged ,
there will bo enough to give the railroads a
largo business during the fall and winter.
This is the theory that grangers are being
bought on. Earnings are nlreudy on
the gain and reports for August show
a good increase over the same ttrao
last year. The only unfavorable report
was from the Burlington which showed a nat
