In the end was from 13-Wl d higher than

numerous acceptances of last nlghl's
cabled offer and during the forenoon put

It will bo seen from the foregoing that

wcru very heavy und the total In wheat
und Hour was equal to IM7.0UO bushels. Now
"Yjrk 'reported continental bids for wheat
.at Trom 3d to < d par Quarter over yester
day's bid prices. Brndslrect's statement
was received ut ubout the turning point of
th ' bullhlv ffKlliiff. There was nolliJuR in
tlio world's visible statement to ciiuse a
revulsion of feeling , but the crowd had
loaded up under the expectation of som-
thlntf stIU niorp bulllHh than they hud yet
received , and their need for somuthlr- ?
moro to keep them screwed up to Un
sticking point not being forthcoming , th'y
.forthwith Htortwl to realize what profits
they * could on i-arly purchases , and In
doing so tumbled December wheat b.ifk to
2u. Now York near the end reported the
day' * export trade nt 100 boatloads , but It
came too Iat6 to affect trading much , and
C2 l-8fiC2 > , ic for December was the current
nrlcB at the close. September opened 6-Syi
% o hlghar at CIJ5C4 1-bc , advanced to G-lVfcc
tin'd sold oft to C4c , the closing llgure. .
Corn was Strom , ' early with wheat , but
had a sudden collapse near the end that
conveyt-d He udvanco to nearly that much
"decline. 'Offering of September did the
business for thu futures. December opi-nud
1-So higher nt 30 l-8c. advanced to 30Vi5f
30 S-8c , ' dropped to 29'Ko and closed nt 29
'
( i/29'7-So buyers. . . . .
The buying of September by shorts on
nccount of the small contract .stocks
strengthened oats. The tone of the market
was helped somewhat by the. strength of
\vhoat. May opened 1-Sc up at 22Ji221-Sc ,
advanced to 22Vlc , weakened to 217-Sc nnd
An excellent demand' and strong prices
for hogs at the yards hold provisions
steady. September pork opened Ee lr ( her
at $3.CO and advanced 'to $ S.05 sellers , the
tloslng price. December lard pturtcd t'.fcc
better at $1.93 , rose to $ l.97' , , declined to

NE\V YORK , Sept. 13.-The miirkct
started off this morning with Indications
that thi ? reactionary period had come to
an end. Prices In the rallroaiL Jlat ad
vanced almost without exception under
thn stimulus of higher prices for Ameri
cans in London and a sharp demand for
People's Gas on recoils that the dispute
with the Indiana Gus company h.ul been
dpprcHslon in some of the spe-
claltlcH , notably Brooklyn Transit , Man-
datum , Mlnncxota Iron and Consolidated
Cius , checked the upward movement. ' 1 ho
bears soul the list frc-ely und their conll-
ileiicn was Justitted by the renewal of
liquidation Induced by the decline of
prices. There WAS stubborn resUtunro to
Uio decline In some of the. railroad dtockn ,
but prices generally fell below yesterday H
low point and dullness Intervtn . The
inurkut was one of speclalt.es during the
greater part of the Uay and some sharp
decline : ! were shown by quite u number.
Sugar was advanced at ono time on the
usual buying la anticipation of tomorrow's
dividend illMburto-int-nt , but dropped Mid-
tidily -lt trom the top level. Metropolitan
atreet Hallway was also consp.cuoiiHly
weak. The declaration of the usual quar
terly dividend on Manhattan and Western
Union did not avail to save those blocks
from decilnts In the face of selling by
urokers usually active In tbe Gould stocks.
'Ine whole group sympathized In the weak-
nees. Minnesota Iron , llllnoU Steel and
American Steel and Wlro all HUlTerod
he.ivy losses.
There were very coirMdentissurances
during the duy that tin- period of possible
stringency In the money market had
paaatij , but the < marking up cull loans on
tno board to 5 per cent detracted Irom the
effect of these assurances. StcVlIng ex-
changei held steady , however , and there Is
an undoubted growth of bullet that the
present stiffness of call money rates is
duo to technical causes , the mtluenc ? ' of
which Is not likely to extend tar outsldo
the stock exchange iv > r to endure th're.
No dllilculty is uppruncnded In providing
for the payment of the remaining sub
scriptions on the governmt'nt loan without
strain , on the money market und the com
pletion of this ojK'ratlon will work an
automatlu relief In the money market.
The bond market wan rather neglected und
! prices declined in sympathy with stocks.
Total sales , J2,515,000. Government bonds

Xrvi- York Dry aoniln Market.
NEW YORK. Sept. 13. There was n fair
amount of trading today In nearly all lines
of dry goods. Buyers In town are numer
ous , although Individual takings were not
. .U..J. There was the usual Tuesday's reo -
ords for mall orders. The operations In
print cloths were not heavy. Buyers have
apparently satisfied their presulng needs ,
The strong position of sellers kept buyers
from operating In some degree. Convert
ers are not now heavy operators In the
market. Coarse colored cottons showed
generally poor results. In kid-finished cam
brics , nnd In fact In all grades of linings ,
the market was quiet.

the i corresponding two days of last week ,
as i will be noted from the table of receipts.
The market , us a wnolc , was In very satis
factory ] condition us regards the welling In
terests. \ The buyers of all kinds seemed to
want supplies and everything was sold in
good season.
The supply of fat cattle consisted almost
entirely < of grass westerns , which sold nt
Just J nbout the name prices as were paid
yesterday. : The market was reasonably
active i , the only drawback being that the
offerings < were all of ono kind. There were
not enough corn feds to make a test of the
market , only a few scattering loads being
offered for sale. It would be safe , however ,
to quote the market as fully steady. Buy
ers were reporting their western cattle as
costing them lO&'lEc ' moro than the low
tlmo lust week.
Good feeders Were In active demand at I
strong prices and anything attractive met
with ready sale. Common yearlings or I
light feeders were no more than steady.
Some choice yearlings and 2-year-old feed
ers , white faces , brought $4,55 , nnd some
2 nnd 3-year-olds , whlto faces , averaging
l.OSO pounds , sold nt $1.50 , showing that
fancy stuff will bring way up prices. West
ern feeders , averaging 1,200 pounds or over ,
Cows and heifers were in good demand
and \ sold nt the same prices as were paid
yesterday. The supply wus not overly largo
and the pens were soon cleared. Bulls ,
stags ' , etc. , sold at about yesterday's prices.

HOQ8 Today's hog market was strong
to 6c higher and active ut the advance ,
everything being sold and weighed up nt
an early hour. The buyers all seemed to
want the hogs and they were not long In
clearing the yards. The prices paid ranged
from 13.75 to $3.85. Packing hogs sold very
largely at J3.77H , mixed loads right around
J3.bO ana prime heavy and light weights
at J3.S5. Thtt bulk of nil the hogs sold at
J3.77Uft3.SO , while the bulk yesterday was
at J3.75ft3.SO. A three-load bunch of
butcher weights brought { 3.83. It was
quality that made the price and not
weight.
It will be noted from the table at head
of column that the sales us n whole I
averaged n shade higher than yesterday
and that the mark it Is now at the highest - ,
est i point touched .his month , In fact the
highest that U hts been any day since
August 24 , when the uverago price was
$3.61. It will also bo noted that the re
ceipts for a Tuesday were very light ,
which Is duo undoubtedly to the rains
which have prevailed In many localities
and which would naturally keep farmers
from bringing In their hogs. Representa

MAD1UI ) , Sept. 13 , Thrrc was another up-
roarlouu fcsslon of the Senate today , Count
Almctms , referring to his statement ycstar-
jday Riving the nnuics of the eencrnls ho re
cently sulil ought to Imvo their mishca tied
mound their necks Instead of around their
waists , naiiiliiK Weyler , lllfinto and 1'rlmo
do Itlvera , after which he also Included Ad
miral Ccrvera In the category , said Ocucrat
Linares was Incompetent aud ought to bo
arraigned.
Thereupon General Weyler and others
loudly protested against these charges and
Uuncral Weyler called on Count Alturims to
name those gcnvriUii uho were accused Ut
falling to do their dut ) , and he added , If
the accusations were true nud the culprits
could not bo legally punlshrd , the generals
would take the matter In their own hands
and Inflict proper punishment. ,
A great tumult ensued , the senators standIng -
Ing , shouting and threatening each other ,
The prcslAmt of the Senate vainly strove to
restore . order , and broke hU bell la attempt
ing ' to do so.
When thu debate was resumed Scnor Gon-
zalcs attacked the army. Ilo said It had
been worsted first by the Insurgent * ) , and
then l > y the Americans. Thu speaker asked
what had become of the 200,000 men sent to
Cuba. Ho blamed General Woylcr and the
late premier , Scnor Canovas del Castillo ,
assorting that the Ititivr was omnipotent
while In power aud might have done what
ho pleased ,
The premier , Scnor Sagasta , replying , said
that neither Scnor Canovas del Castillo nor
himself had ruled fang enough to change the
character of the race , which was the Urua
cause , ho claimed , of the disaster to Spain.
"Wo arc , " the premier nald , "an amalagamlu
country. Wo were attacked when acting
as honest men would. Wo defended our
selves. I have lost my prestige , but It Is
because I believe the path I atn following U
the best. "
IVoylor Grown Violent ,
General Weyler then made a speech ol
great violence , which provoked such au out
burst that the premier had to Intervene and
called upon the general to explain his policy.
General1 Weyler replied that ho had not
threatened the government Institutions , but
only those who hod attacked the army.
The minister for war , General Correa , said
the government alone was responsible.
The duke of TctMan , the former minister
for foreign affairs , defended Senor Canovas
del Castillo , whereupon Scnor Gonzales maclo
another attack upon the deceased premier ,
declaring the latter had foreseen the loss o (
Cuba and had planned with Scnor Sagasttn
to sign the surrender. The loss of Cuba ,
Senor Gonzales continued , was a just pun
ishment for these who failed to profit by
the doctrlno that the colonies should not bo
governed by oppression. The senate then
adjourned.
The republicans , Carltsts nnd bolting con
servatives of the Chamber of Deputies havq
Usucd a manifesto giving their reasons for
opposing the government. Ha publication
has been prohibited.
Scnor Sagasta , In an Interview today , said
no claims advanced by the United States
after the peace protocol was signed or the
Cortes bureau met to elect pcaco commis
sioners should bo entertained. " ' ,
Advices received from the Philippine Isl
ands say the Insurgents would release only
ft few of their prisoners. For Instance , they
will set free the Spanish civil employes who
nre In their hands.
Major General Merrltt. It Is cald , eoes to

the 'Insurgents ' an American protectorate
over the wlrolo of the Philippines.
