Cattle As usual on Saturday, there were
practically no fresh cattle on sale, but for
the week receipts hav been the heaviest on
record, footing up approximately (1.700
head,vor nearly 10,009 more than a week
ago, and 3,500 more than a year ago. Ex
cessive receipts the early part of the week
demoralized the trade and forced prices
down fully 60c, but with moderate supplies
the latter part of the week much of the
early decline was recovered, and closing
prices for both beef steers and cows are not
more than 26c to 60s lower than a week
ago. In fact the desirable heavy cattle are
not appreciably lower than at that time
and the decline has been mostly on the light
and medium weight stock that has consti
tuted the big bulk of the offerings.
Considerable activity has featured the
traddln stockers. and feeders, and demand
from the country has been broader than at
any previous time this year. Fleshy steers
of good quality have been firmly held frem
ats.rt to finish, selling from 110.00 up to
114.50.

highest prices that have been paid sine
August 21. Prices have shown an advance
every day this week and are right close to
$1.00 higher than last Saturday. The gen
eral market now is the highest it has ever
been, though today's top Is still 16c be
low the record of $li.0 made last month.

Sheep Receipts of sheep and lambs this
Week are not quite so large as for the
week before, amounting to a little better
than 149,000 head as compared with over
160,000 last week. The corresponding week
year ago offerings totaled 174,000 head.
The first two or three days of the week
the market was real well supplied, and as
the buying demand was not nearly so strong
as it had been values broke sharply on all
kinds of lambs. The pet fat lambs dropped
rrotn $18.00 last Friday to under $17,00 the
middle ot this week, while there was a de
aline of around 76c In rrod liht rind
medium weight feeders and less desirable
Kinds broke as much as $1.00.

variety suffering the extreme decline. There
was a moderate inquiry for this cereal, but

CHICAGO GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.
Unexpected Cool Weather Encourages Corn
Dnjerat Oats Harden; Hogs firm.
Chicago, 111., Sept. 29. Unexpecjed cool
weather with frost Indications for tonight
encouraged buyers today In the corn mar
ket. Largely as a result prices at the close,
although unsettled, were o to 114 01c
net higher at $1.181.18 to $1.18,
I. 18 December and $1.16 to $1.16 May.
Oats finished unchanged to Ho higher
and provisions ranging from 12o decline to a
rise of 7c.
Investors, who appeared to have been giv
ing considerable attention to the feeding
value of corn as compared with prices for
live stock, took prompt notice of the chance
that the prevailing wave of lower tempera
ture mlicht bring about eleventh-hour dam
age to the corn crop. Houses with seaboard
connections were especially conspicuous In
the purchasing, whereas big sellers proved
scarce, the bulk of the offerings coming
from pit longs, who had week-end profits
to realize. The country sold almost bo
corn and offering everyyjjere were light.
Oats hardened in response to continued
demand from export Interests. Heavy d
Hv9f les on contracts were expected after the
clcise, but arrivals here remained small.
Owing to the recent Bharp advances, the
provision market encountered a decided lull.
For the most part, however, quotations were
sustained by the comparative firmness of
prices on hogs. ' ...

shown by Union Pacific, Northern Pacific

moderate fraction and Initial losses In coo
pers and equipments gave way to final ad
vances of a point or thereabouts.

changed on call during the week. The

New Orleans, Sept. 29. Word was
anxiously awaited here today from
Pensacola, Fla., which was struck by
the tropical hurricane. AH wire com
munication with Pensacola had been
cut off since about 1 o'clock yester
day afternoon, when messages from
that city stated the wind was blowing
about 100 miles an hour, and indicated
considerable damage to property.
Telegraph and telerhone companies
said their wires to Pensacola probably
would not be restored before tomor
row or later.
No serious damage and no los of
life were reported from the Mississippi
coast or from eastern Louisiana and
danger from high tides apparently had
passed.
Some storm damage to standing
timber and to crops vas reported
from Mississippi and Louisiana, Int
no estimate is available.
Residences Damaged.
Mobile, Ala., SeptJ 29. The gulf
coastal sections ot east Louvsiatia,
Mississippi, Alabama and western
Florida were emerging today' from
the tropical hurri -ane which swept in
from the Guff oi Mexico Friday and
for a number of hours isolated many
towns along the coast.
Koofs of residences and frail build
in gs were "damaged, but warniugs in
advance prevented extensive damiiRC
to shipping, and no loss of life was
reported. Telephone, telegraph and
railroad communication still -was vir
tually paralyzed and washed out
tracks, and damage to wires by hinh
winds was expected lo constitute the
chief loss.
Causes Fire.
The storm, struck the coast at the
mouth of the Mississippi and. sweep
ing across a narrow portion of Louis
iana, missed New Orleans, but hit
Gulfport, Biloxi and the Mississippi
coast section, swept through Mobile
at times with a velocity of ninety-six
miles an hour and extended east to
Pensacola, where communication hs4
not been restored early today.
A three-story structure occupied
by the Chamber of Commerce and
the cotton exchange and several other
buildings in the business district here
were destroyed by fire, demoralra
tion of the fire alarm system giving
the flames a start. The loss is put at
$350,000.
The storm early today was continii
ing its way inland in a northeasterly
direction through Alabama and Flor
ida, though apparently with diminish
ing force.
