CntCAOO , Nov. 22. [ Special TclcRrara to
TIIK HKI : . ] Thcro wai liberal speculative
trading in wlieut to-day and ft broad market
was tlic result. The public , iw well ns pro
fessionals , participated on a generous scale.
1'rices averaged considerably higher than
yesterday , and closed with the improvement
fully sustained. The opening was rattier
wild , with sulcs at tl.lOX Jl.ll V'rlll WM
nboui i/c above yesterday's close. The trad
ing crowd concluded that the market had
been opened high to enable some of the
leaders to sell to advantage , and tiio prevail
ing disposition was to sell. Nevertheless the
market advanced to * l.lll , caned off slightly
and then went to tl.lljf. Heavy selling by
the general crowd and by houses that were
conspicuous on the buying sldo Tuesday and
Wednesday , broke values sharply. May de
clined lirst to ll.io ; and later
IocGinbcr sold down the scale from
to fl.OT'4 ' , mid January fromSI.OT'f '
The market rallied about Ic from thusu
prices on renewed buying by Kennctt , ana
persisted purchases by Lyon. The latter
house bought steadily in an unobtrusive
way , throughout the session , on
soft spots. The crowd is Just
now very badly mixed on the question
of speculative probabilities. An old and
very careful observer , who rarely allows his
prejudice or sentiment to cloud his Judg
ment , unburdened himself in this wlso :
"Tho syndicate or combination that
smashed the market down with a great mass
of speculative offerings the other day lias
covered Its wheat , I should say , ami possibly
jnado a turn on the other side. ThUjjbreak
brought out a big lot of wheat on slop or
ders. The market is now about even , I
should Judge , and ri | > o for another raid. It
will continue to present temptations so long
ns our prices am out of line. I wsint to state ,
however , that wo arc rapidly approaching a
legitimate basis , and I cannot s < > o why opcr-
ntors should engage In short selling as cour-
ngcously or as heavily as when prices were
localise hit'lier. 1 hear of some Hour being
worked for export , and foreigners nro not so
indifferent ns our eastern and foreign advices
indicate. "
As before stated , there was a good general
trade In wheat. Commission houses report
tictive business , and that is satisfactory proof
of the revival of public interest in
wheat speculation. The break has induced a
healthy investment inquiry , and now buying
seems to bo generally by good people. "Shoe
Strincers , " as narrow margin operators arc
termed , have fared ill of lato. The closing
range was J Wlc higher than yesterday , viz :
December Sl.lHij ; ; January $1.07 % , and May
$ I.111MK > The near futures made the
greatest proportionate gain. 1'rices are now
ye nbovo bottom touched for May , und 4c
nbovo bottom for December ,
The corn raarkot opened ( inlet and tame at
nbont closing prices of the previous day.
Thcro was nothing , apparently , to cause any
strength in the wheat pit , and that was the
cause assigned Inter for the liriner tone which
the corn deal assumed. Receipts were heavy ,
and those estimated for to-morrow , 39.'i cars ,
were certainly not small enough to make a
bull feature of. Liverpool was quoted firm , but
Atlantic seaboard shipments were light , and
the outward Inspection from here was under
recent averages. There was a good demand
from shorts , however , and they were en
couraged in their desire to buy. by purchases
inado bv leading operators and by the sharp
demand of cash corn. The amount of busi
ness done was light , and principally of u local
scalping character , but the offerings were
light , and the feeling averaged ( inner than
yesterday. The market closed at , 4 ( > % c bid
for November , an advance of % c on Wednes
day's ' price ; December at 38 MU , is , ' c higher ,
and May at as ; c bid , Is virtually unchanged.
The provision trade was somewhat un
settled. The continued largo receipts of
hogs encouraged free soiling at the opening ,
and under the excessive offerings some
thing of a break occurred in prices
early in the day. Later , however ,
the market gained in strength. Morning sell
ers showed a disposition to cover some of
their short sales , and the ground lost was in
n great measure recovered. Hutchinson was
nlsoagood buyer during the last hour , and
the closing all around was comparatively
strong. The day's actual decline In pork was
only B@KP , while lard wan unchanged to
JJJiJc limber , and ribs unchanged to 'J > c
lower. "Grain men and the old bear contin
gent in the product were the principal sellers
on the depression. Speculative trading was
quito active , though for cash property orders
showed a falling off. Cash lard sold at fS.40

'et tlioro was little or no clinngo In value3 , as
compared with yesterday , but there were too
many undesirable natives , too many cheap
lookiiiK und common steers on tliu market ,
that they were hard to dispose of ut satisfactory -
tory prices. On account of the light offer
ings of rangers , salesmen that had an orili-
nary run of natives tried hard to get. a slight
advance , but failed to got there. Tlioro were
scarcely a dozen loads of good natives on the
market. Prime native cowa and heifers are-
beginning to sell nt higher prices , and chances
uro that from this time out such will make
better prices. Common old cows and
rough stock ijfliHiniHy had to com-

NEW VOIIK , Nov. 'J'3. [ Special Telogrum
to Tim HHI ! , ] STOCKS London prices became -
came materially higher thU morning , and the
market oil Now York exchange opened rather
feverish nnd Irregular , most of the list showIng -
Ing fractional Improvement , ns compared
with last nlght'i ' close. The highest prices ,
however , seemed mndo only to soil stocks
upon , as values receded immediately , mid
during the first twenty minutes , when heavy
business was transacted , the general list de
clined from ) ( to } ( points , later , In Northwestern -
western nnd Lackuwanna , which were closely
followed by Now England and L'nlcu Pacific.
Oualm and Hluhmond Terminal were especial
features of the decline , losing 1'tf nd 1'fS
iwints respectively. There was a good deal
of see saw to the forenoon market covering
by shorts Imparting strength , and liquidation
of long stocks having the contrary cdcct. At
noon the market was fairly active , and heavy
at the close , to the lowest prices thus far
reached , though the general decline was not
large. There was some heavy soiling Of
Western Union nt the close , when prices In
general were fairly firm , and in some stocks
strong. Last nYtircs were usually within 1
point or less of the opening.

The market was slow and weak , and there
was very little desirable stock on gale. There
were f | "I to a good many natives that had
been fed n little corn , but were not ripe.
There waa nothing good enough to bring
over f l.OU , A choice buucU of corn-fed helt-
ors sold nt $2.PO Feeders were scarce nnd
thrro was not much to make a market. The
general market was about lOc lower ,
The market opened slow with twenty fho
stale loads In addition to the fresh receipts
on sale. The trade was inclined to drnif , and
It was afternoon before the hoes were all
sold. The duality of the lioirs was not as
good ns yesterday , and taking that fact into
consideration the market could not bu called
over 5c lower.

The receipts were the heaviest for some
time , nnd a few were sold. The market was

Graphic Description of Scones at I'oll-
Ing Places In Dakota.
New York Tribune : There is nn ud-
vantage of livint ; in a territory that tlto
people wlio i-esldo there do not apprcei-
ate as fully as they should in fact , they
never PCCIM to appreciate it ut all. 1 re
fer to their escape from the presidential
campaigns.
Having no voice in these contests ,
they , in a measure , lose Interest in them
ami become mere lookors-on hero in
Vienna. AVailo the state voter puts on
a red muslin coat and a green paper
helmet and tramps through the dust , or
mud , or both , to the wild unhallowed
notes of a brass band , the territorial
voter sits around and abuses the govern
ment because he can't or , at least , be
cause there is no reason why lie should.
Ho is not happy in his exemption. Ho
doesn't appreciate his freedom. In
deed , it is no uncommon occurrence for
him to hand himself together and march
the streets and make night reasonably
hideous , oven if ho is not allowed to
vote. He argues that his displays of
party patriotism muv encottrgo his side
in the states , and also , perhaps , in case
of success , win him the appointment as
postmaster. "With no desire to say any
thing which could possibly olYcad the
most ardent follower of one of our leading
parties , T would jitat state in passing the
fact that in 1KHJ. in Brooking * , lnl . ,
there was but one democratic vote east
for that party's candidate for territorial
delegate to congress , it not at that time
being reeoirni/.iMl there and havintr no
local ticket in the Held , and after its
national success there were eleven ap
plications for the position of postmaster ,
each Betting forth as the basis of the
claim of the applicant that he had cast
the only democratic ballot in tiio place
at the last election.
Territorial cities frequently.however ,
get up considerable interest in the local
contest for county ollicors and call out.
n full vote. I remember living in Rapid
City , Dale. , a few years ago on election
day. This place is in the lUack hills ,
and is supported by both the mining
and stock-raising industries , though
lying among the foot-hills it is rather
more of a "cow town" than a "mine
town. "
All day the short street where the
polling place was situated was crowded
for Us full whole width. They were a
rough but good-natured lot , all anxious
to vote , and more especially to see their
friends voted and that there
was fair play for all parties.
There were no revolvers car
ried owing to a M.rict city ordinance
against it and a desire on the part of
the iiien to , as ono of them expressed it ,
"uphold any < lum-fool law the dinged
mullet heads wanted to puss ; " the six-
shooters were left at the various saloons
or on the saddles , where they "could
be got mid'lin' sudden in case of riot or
anything of that kind.
Opposite the polling places the judge
of probate had his ollice , and he w.\s \
kept busy all day making out allidavits
for tlio.-e" whoso riirht to vote the judges
might ( piu tion. He was not kept so
busy , however , that ho did not oc
casionally Und time to.lip out and se
cure a drink of the most stimulating
lluid which was obtainable. lie was
hininolf a candidate for ro-clection on
one ticket. Ono small man , a new ar
rival in the country , came in about neon
and wished to make alii lavit as to resi
dence , etc. . when the judge said to him :
"Voting for mo for jodgo of probate ,
liey'r1"1
"Not much. " replied the little man.
"Haint , hoyV'
"No. "
"Haint going to vote for old Jake
Rublee , lieyV"
"No , fciiO'
"Wy , the best probate jedgo the
county ever bad , you miserable whelp ! "
howled the judge , his anger rising.
"Can't help it , I ain't going to vote
for you. "
' CJoinir to vote for Hank Daggott , be
you1" ;
" ! "
"You bet
"Got right out of this ! Move right
out ! " yelled the excited judge , grasp
ing his iron seal ; ' 'git right up and dust
out of this ! Do you s'poso I'm going to
degrade this judicial body by swearing
a man that is such a blank fool that bo
don't Icnow how to vote ? Do you think
this court will lo\vjr itsalf to lot n
dabbed idiot make affidavit ? S'poo
I've got any time to fool with low-down
critters that don't know a good man for
jedgo of probate when he see.s him:1 : If
you do you'll disk Ivor your mistalco'foro
you get through with mol" Then the
little man went out , and the judge ut
the "swearing iron , ' ' as he playfully
called the seal , back in its place and
turned his attention to a moro intelli
gent man. The dignity of the court
was saved.
It was the generally received opinion
during the day that "Joe" Reynolds
should bo allowed to vote half a do/.on
times. He was an old hunter , and also
had a little ranch twenty miles west.
Ho arrived in town the night before
with the largest bear over killed in the
bills. It was a cinnamon , or silver-tip ,
and as large as a grizzly. The gri//.ly ,
old hunters say ; is never found outside
the Sierra Nevada range. This bear ,
known by his monster tracks , had been
carrying off hogs and calves in the
neighborhood for three years. Ho had
killed one man a year before , who hail
shot at him. He killed the man with
one stroke of his paw. Reynolds shot
him once , with no elfect. The bear
rose up and charged him , and only
a bettor shot saved him from the other
man's fato. The carcass was brought
to town in a wagon , the scat being
removed to make room for his headand
as it lay on its buck a great paw
extended out over each wheel. The
proposition to vote the bear was
frowned down ; it was pointed outnhat
he was dead.
