Heaviness in the wheat market U
more discouraging to holder now than

CATTLE It was rather slow in the
cattle yards this morning. Advices from
Chicago and some other selling points
indicated a lower range of pi Ices, and
buyers here were inclined to hold back
and await developments before doing very
muoh business, it was in tact very ap
parent that they had all of them made
up their minds to buy the cattle a little
lower than yesterday. On tne other nana
receiDts were very lieht. the total for the
three days amounting to only 7,000 head,
a falling off as compared , with the tight
receiDts oi last week ana a decrease oi
over 3,000 head as compared with a year
ago. This light run made sellers rather
strong in their views so that they were
not inclined to take oil anytning, dui
held back for good, firm prices. This
attitude on the part ot sellers contributed
still more to the dulii oi tne traoe.
It appeared, however, Liat buyers really
wanted the cattle, ana nere ana mere
they began picking up such stuff as es
pecially suited them, and it was not long
before tne big bulk oi tne came naa
changed hands. In spite of the fact that
buyers had evidently maae up tneir minus
to buy the cattle lower, as notea aDove,
in the end they paid prices that were
Just about steady with yesterday, so that
the cattle market as a whole so far aa
beef steers were concerned cou.d best be
described as .a slow, steady market
The offerings of cows and hellers were
very moderate this morning and the mar
ket generally steaay witn yesieraay.
While the trade was not very acilve, the
receipts for the most part changed hands
in good season.
There were only . a tew - scattering
bunches of stackers and feeders and the
trade on that kind ot stock was i:ot ma
terially changed from what it nas been
during the last few days.

What a Pint Timer Saw and Heard
at the Convention.
CE0WD MERCILESS TO SPEAKERS
Chairman's Gavel Beats Incessantly
While Shoots and Jeers Inter
rupt the Orators la High
est Flights.
By ANTHONY SI. EASITERLING.
CHICAGO, June 19.-SpeciaJ Telegram.)
-When I walked into the Coliseum to
day to witness my first national political
convention, the confusion incident to the
attempt of 12,000 patrlotlo souls to voice
the glory of their patriotism and enthusi
asm or this land of the free, indicated
that there might be chaos, riot revolu
tion and bloodshed, as had been foretold
by the political prophets. A prayer was
said and Chairman Rosewater called the
convention to order. Being innocent of
political wisdom I could not now venture
to say precisely what happened after
that' . . ?
Governor Hadley ot Missouri had
climbed over the ropes around the
speakers platform and was voclferlously
protesting, against what was about to
happen. Francis J. Heney was prepar
ing a vocal kick, worded after the rough
fashion employed by the colonel and
delivered In an Abe-Ruef-case manner.
Back where the representatives of the
people ' sat and prompted, a colored
brother was seeking earnestly to convince
his unenlightened brethren the country's
"infernal prosperity" depended on the
Issues to be fought out within the next
thirty minutes. There was a great
hubbub . and this was Increased to a
tumult when EHhu Root and Governor
McGovern were nominated for temporary
chairman.
Events Easier to Follow,
Tho innocent from Nebraska could
thereafter follows the logic of events
with greater comprehension. These)
events consisted chiefly of a succession
of "I am honored Indeed and consider H
rare 'privilege to be able to second tho
nomination," etc. Each delegate who
felt it incumbent upon him to praise tho
nominees was given an unstinted portion
of applause, scorn or tolerance aa the
mood of the spectators dictated. But it
neither squelched or elated him. Ha

silence when the discord drowned tho

The crowd was merciless. A flv.

a terrible disaster. He was not r..vi
officer picked from among his fellows
to take a ship through a storm of shot
and shell to block the mouth of a har-
bor where an enemy's fleet had taken
refuge. Tony Donatto was not
and inspired by the knowledge that the
eyes or tne wona were upon him, but
he was no less a hero than Rostron or
Hobson.
Tony Donatto was workine
railroad track when a fast exnrea. troi
approached. He and the other members .
or tne gang lie was with stepped aside
out ot danger. Tony saw that a tie had
carelessly been left on the track. He
sprang back and hurled it Into the ditch.
But he could not save himself. The
engine struck him. After a hri.c
tho train sped on. It was only an Italian
laborer who had been killed.
The man and the deed will anm. k.
forgotten. But when the recorrllnsr a r, trnl
brings forth his roll of honor on tho
last aay tne name of Tony Donatto will
be found not far from the tnn.-ri.v.
land Leader.
