The best grades of feeding cattle held up better In price owing to the fact that no great number wa received. Cows nnd heifers were In good demand right along and prices were not materially changed for the week. Range steers good enough for beef were active und stcadv. HOGS Today's receipts of hogs were a llttlo above the average for a Saturday this month , but the market was favorable to the sellers. Yesterday's provision market wa n llttlo stronger , nnd under that Influence the market on live hogs opened this morning strong to Cc higher. The trade was reason ably active , so that the most of the hogs changed hands early. Later on , however , as Bomo of the more urgent orders were filled nnd as Chicago came closing lower the mar ket eased off and closed with the morning's strength lost. The hogs sold at J3 65 ® 3 80 , with the long string at $3 70. Yester day the hogs brought $3 63 3.75 , with the bulk at $3 6503 67 % . This has been n week of largo hog re ceipts , the run being above the average , as will bo noted from the report of weekly receipts given above At the Ramo time the arrivals have been none too largo to sup ply the requirements of the market , and on most days the trade has been active. The course of values during the first half of the week was gradually downward , while during the latter part there was an equally slow recovery. At the close the prices were only a ahado lower than they were on Mon day , but the average for the whole week was considerably under what waa paid the week bcforn. SHEEP The receipts of sheep this week liavo been the .smallest of any week since the middle of August , while the demand has been as large as ever. This has naturally tnado buyers very anxious for supplies , with the result that the advance of the carlv part of the week was well maintained. All arrivals of either sheep or lambs that would do for the killers have met with ready sale at prices that Imvo been entirely satisfac tory to owners. The demand for feeding sheep continues Tery active nnd everything of that descrip tion has met with ready sale. The receipts have been light , owing to the fact that buy ers ore scouring every section of the coun try for supplies , with the result that n good many bunches are picked up before their arrival at the market.

CHICAGO , Oct. 1 Enormous receipts of wheat nt prlmnry western points Increas ing Husslan offerings nnd estimates o ( large crops hero and abroad were at the , bottom of the weakness shown by wheat today Uesldes trading was excessively dull. December closed nt V-c decline. Corn nnd oats were stagnant , each market de clining about 1-Sc In symp.ithj with wheat. ! Provisions were weak , partly on account of grain and partly on the Independent fea tures , closing 15(5c ( down. Thu opening In wheat was nt a slight ad vance over yesterdnv's closing price , De | cember starting at 62 G-Sc The Improve ment was apparently due to Hradstreet's llgurus on the weeks exports , which were put at 507,000 ! bushels , compared with 5,025,000 bushels the previous week This had caused a strong curb market jester- day , nnd the strength was still notlceabto nt todays opening Shorts were mod rate bujers for n short time nftcr the start , bu > lng being heavy enough to caui e a fur . ther slight advance , December ge-ttlng to I 62\c , nnd holding for n time nt that llg- ure Then the market slowly began to weaken , nnd for the rest of the short ses sion , the trend of prices was steadily downward. There \vas plenty of news of n bearish tenor , but trading was so ex tremely dull , many of the most prominent brokers having gone to Omaha to witness the pence festivities nt the exposition Unit the decline was very gradual , Northwest receipts were heavy , Minne apolis and Duluth reporting 1,277 cars , ngalnst 1,091 cars last week and 1.183 cars a > ear ago. Chicago receipts were 540 cars , 30 of contract quality. Prlmnry re ceipts for the day were 1,692,000 bushels , which were largely In excess of last year. Atlantic port clearances , exclusive of New port News nnd gulf ports , amounted to 625,000 bushels. Urokers reported nn al most entire nbscnce of cash bids at any thing nppronchlng n working basis. Liver pool was Hd lower for futures , though spot wheat was unchanged. London re ported freer offerings of Husslarr wheat. This , with foreign estimates of Russian and the world's crop report , both of which were very heavy , d'cpened the depression In the local market. The Orange Judd Farmer estimate of 700,000,000 bushels ns the United Stntes crop also helped to push prices downward. The mnrket became very heavy townrd the close , demand nlmost d > lng out. Dei ember sold down to 62c nnd closed nt 62C62 l-8c. There was \ery llttlo trade In corn nnd prices changed very little. Tha feeling was ensy , prlncipallv through sympnthy with wheat Cash demand wns slow. He eelpts were S49 cars Clearances were mod- 1 crnto. Country offerings were on a small scale December ranged from 29 3-S < f29 } c 1 to 29ic , nnd closed l-8c lower nt 29Uc. The mnrket for oats was stagnant , the i pit nt times being nlmost deserted Prices i were Influenced by wheat and corn nnd nverngcd a little lower. Elcvntor people i were sellers of Mny. Receipts were 45S 1 cnrs. There wns no cash Inquiry. May ranged from 22G-Sc to 22 3-Sc , nnd closed i a shade lower nt 22 3-8Q22V4C. Provisions were dull and heavy. The i opening wns lower on yellow fever news > nnd heavy Inrd deliveries , nnd a still fur ther decline resulted In sympnthy with i wheat , the mnrket closing about bottom i figures.

COMIITION OK M3W YOHK HANKS. Ciirri-nt llnnk Stnteinoiit nn ArKiimriit In Pniar of I.fMTcr Sloiicy ItntcH. NKW YORK , Oct. 2. The New York Financier says : The New York bank statement for the current - rent week Is nn argument In favor of lower money rates. The excess rcsorvo is now practically the same as reported for the cor responding vvcckn during two previous years. The operations with the treasury ara nearIng - Ing nn end , the demand from the Interior Is light , and the bank reserves are being replenished by Impoitcd gold now arriving there seems to bo no reason for further fear as to the future. The contraction of JG.GS1- * BOO In loans reported for the week Is due In part to the efforts of banks to increase rfwrvcs , but aside 'rom that the liquidation due to stock exchange operations has been considerable A detailed comparison , how ever , establishes the fact that the greater part of the loan reductions have been made by several of the banks. The increase of $10,668,600 In specie was brought about prin cipally by receipts of Imported gold. It Is stated that tome gold arrived late In the j week from California , probably representing or anticipating Australian Imports. The gold receipts , of course , swelled the depos its and the Increase of $1,374,000 In that Item Is the first reported ! 'i five weeks. Logically , the expansion should have b"on larger | A better understanding of hf posi tion of the national banks , at least. Is ob tained from a comparison of their Septem ber totals , published officially last week. The bends to secure deposits foot up forty- four and one-third millions , specie and Ipgals Invo decreased since- July 14 , about Si'J.OOO- 000 , leans have fallen off $10,750,000 , bank deposits show a dccreano of $19,000,000 , nnd other deposits $38,750,000. This will serve to show what effects pav- ments Into the treasury on bond account Imvo had In the last nine or ten weeks for very little of the total of dcci.'nseJ bank balances has gone to Interior banks. Since July 14 and counting to the end of the week Just elapsed , the circulation of New York national banks has Increased at least $ lMn- ) 000 , principally on new 3 per cent bunds Payment of current Interest nnd prlnclpil by the treasury from this time on will re lease large sums of money. The outlock favors a decline In Interest rates to u level reported before the bond payments began to disturb the market. M3W 1OIIK UUNnilAti MAKKCT.

( Special ) The republican county convention waa held lere yesterday. The meeting was enthuslas- Ic and harmonious. F. W. Lester was j chosen chairman of the convention. C. C. Gel wick of Bralnard was nominated by ac- lamatton as one of the candidates for rep resentative and an Informal ballot taken m the second candidate , which was so | trong for C. H. Aldrlch that ho was made i he nominee by acclamation. Mr. Aldrlch being In the room was called upon for a pccch and responded In a ringing speech , minting with pride to the promises made by the party in 1890 that had been fulfilled tnd paying a glowing tribute to the acts of he administration during the war. George i ' . Shusley was nominated county attorney and spoke briefly. After choosing members of the county central committee the con- cntlon adjourned. Immediately after the adjournment of the convention Hon. E. H. ilnshaw addressed the meeting and made many friends by his clear and candid argu- ' meats why the hands of the administration ' should bo strengthened by every loyal citi zen Irrespective of past political adulation * , ' and counselled unity of action in the entire ( state to redeem it from populism. During ils remarks he scored Governor Holcomb 'or his action In promoting Major Stotsen- iurg to the colonelcy of the First Nebraska over Lieutenant Colonel Colton. After the speaking the following * resolution was read and adopted by the audience : "Whereas , The governor of this state has seen fit to appoint Major Stotsenburg , a non resident and an officer in the regular army as colonel of the First Nebraska volunteers , and by so doing has turned down a volun teer and the ranking officer of said regi ment our neighbor and friend. Lieutenant lolonel George R. Colton , as gallant an offi cer as ever enlisted In the United States army ; therefore , be It "Resolved , That It Is the sense of this meeting that the governor of this state de serves the censure of the friends and rela tives of the volunteer members of the First regiment for his Intense partisanship and Injustice In making this appointment.

EXETER , Neb. , Oct. 2 ( Special. ) The republicans held a grand rally here in the opera house last night , with Hon. E. H. Hlnshaw of Falrbury , candidate for congress from the Fourth district , and C. A. Fowler of Ohlowa , candidate for state senator from this district , as speakers. Although the meeting1' had only been advertised three days , a fine audience greeted the speakers. The contrast between the audience at this meeting and the ono that greeted W. V. Allen and Secretary Porter , who delivered populist harangues here last week , was very noticeable. At the populist meeting there were three women to every man and five children to every adult present , whereas at the republican meeting there were more men than women and almost no children. Mr. Hlnshaw is an able and forcible speaker and his remarks were listened to with the greatest attention. His remarks were noth ing but plain , solid facts , not a word of rbuse for any person or party , which was just the reverse of the Allen meeting. For broken surfaces , sores , Insect bites , burns , skin diseases , and especially piles , there is one reliable remedy , DoWitt'a Witch Hazel Salve. When you call for DeWltt's don't accept counterfeit or frauds. You will not bo disappointed with DeWltt's Witch Hazel Salve. wny HOJ-H CiiiiKlit. COLUMBUS. Neb. , Oct. 2.
