Mr. Cox was a representative In the Forty-eighth and Forty- ninth congresses, and was a member of the house committee on foreign affairs. He paid a grent deal of sttention to the consular service, while a member of the committee, and it Is believed that his mvemlrnlnnn into consular affalrs make him particularly fitted for the place lately occupied by Governor Porter. The first assistant secretary of state has entire charge of the consular service, and it is essential that the incumbent of the oftice_should have a thorough knowledge of the duties of the eommercial representatives of the United States stationed abrond, Mr. Cox was a member of the committee on civil service re- form. In that position he was very active in opposing ‘the various bills which were offerad for the repeal of the I'endieton actand was regarded as a firm bellever in the theory of civil service reform of the ex- isting brand, It was reported and zenerally believad that his devotion to his principles in this respect resulted in ms defeat for re- nomination.

A, McGiil and Dave Jones, two local pugilists, who work in the Pullman fouundry, had quarreled and agreed to go to the coalsheds near by and fight it out. A crowd accompa- nied them and formed a ring. The combat- ants went at each other In the most approved style and fought for nearly an_hour, when the police ofticers fit words of it. All es- caped except the bellizerents, who were so completely exhausted that it bocame a diffi- cult matter to get them to the policy station, McGil) was battered up in such & manner that his mother did not recoznize him when she called at the jail. His left ear was en- tirely bitten off and has not been seen since, Jones caught it in his jaws; had a couple of fingers almost bitten off, his eves are in the deepest wourning and he is otherwise em- bellished. But Mc(iill is the most frightful looking specimen of humanity ever seen in Kensington. When arraigned in the court the men refused to testify azsinst each other, Mectill’s ipjuries, his physician says, are likely to terminate very serlously. Omaha 8, Hastings 2.

WEEKLY BUSINESS REVIEW, Looal Financial Affairs Attract a Little More Attention, INCREASED DEMAND FOR MONEY Bankers Report Rates of Interest Firmer and Higher—Graln Stocks Small—Western Packing Pro- gressing Favorably. In the Commercial World. CHICAGO, Sept. 24.—|Special Telegram to the Bre.]—Local financial affairs attracted & little wore attention during the past week. Bankers as a rule reported an increased de- mand for money, and the market showed & ittle tendency to closeness. Yet parties who are In good repute with banks succeeded in obtaining such accommodations as they re- quired. A good supply of loanable funds are in the hands of managers of leading finan- cial institutions, but the approach of the winter packing season, when manufacturers of hog products require ‘some assistance tinancially, and the constant flow of currency to the country for the movement of grain and live stock to market, leads to considerable conservatism in the disposal of money at their command. Speculators were moders ate borrowers and the amount of paper from this source was somewhat enlarged dur- Ing_ the week. Shippers of grain and pro- visions presented very little paver for dis- count. Merchants in the wholesale trade ine creased their demands and leading houses were readily accommodated. Lumber deal- ers were moderate borrowers on short date paper. Some outside paper was offered on the market, backed by good collaterals and slort dates were accepted at rates averaging 9 per cent. Rates of interest were firmer and higher, ranging at 6@63 per cent on call and 6@ per cent for time paper, with very little accepted at less than 7 per cent. Money at eastern financial centers is extremely ciose and interest rates are tirm at 506 per cent. Advices from foreign markets indicated a steadier feeling in that quarter, with a better demand for loans at abont previous rates of interest. New York exchange was dull and dragging throughout the week and sales were limited. Offerings were not very large and the demand was moderate. Sales between banks were made at 50@70 cents discount per $10,000, and the market closed quiet at 70 cents discount. Foreign exchange showed a little more steadiness during the past week, though the agsregate business was light. Slippers’ sixty days documenl«r%’xbllls on London changed hands $4.78@4. 78 and closed rather dull at 8ig, Offerings were quite large near the close, owing to the Increased pur- chase of stocks at New York, More fife was manifested in the New York stock market during the week just closed. Wall street operators ~were inclined trade with consideraple freedom, though mainly in the way of accepting small losses or profits. Foreign operatora were liberal buyers of some of the leading American securities. Western speculators have traded more freely than for several weeks past and were credited with makin, fair prelits in their operations. The mark was considerably unsettled and prices very irregular and averaged lower Tor Teadin properties. Sales on the New York stocl exchange for the week aggregated 2,191,018 shares.~ On the Chicago stock exchange dur- ing the week, there was more inclination to trade and prices closely followed the New York quotations, Morve life was manifested in the leading produce markets, and speculative trading was larger than for veral weeks past. Wheat, corn and provisions esps liy at- tracted more attention, and on two or three days activity exhibited reminded operators of the exciting times in speculative circles a few vears ago. ‘There appeared to be more trading in large quantities; both by local and outside operators, and the impression 18 gaining ground that arf active speculative movement is about to be inaugurated and ved materially. of grain are not large, In fact, they have been reduced so they be easily han- dled by leading operators, and moderaze sup- to make speculators on the “'short’” te guarded 1n their transactions. Quick turns have been the rule in very many cases, Prices exnibited no very marked changes and fluctuations have been coniined within a moderate range. Foreign aavices have shown more steadiness, with higher prices for some articles, but orders from merchauts abroad have been limited and in most instances below the views of sellers. Receipts of grain have been moderately freo at all westorn markets shipments to eastern and foreign warkets were quite lib- ovislons have shown some weakness in ot the liberal supply of hogs and the decline in corn, but at the same time stocks have been materially reduced by liberal ship- ments to domestic and foreign, markets. Packing in the west is progressing favorably and the decroase for the season IS very slight. e FIVE MORE KILLED, The Latest News of the Tewkesbury- Graham Feud., PrESCOTT, A T, Sept. 24.~Under Sheriff Waddell has received word from the Tonto basin that a fight occurred there on the 15th, ‘Thomas Graham, Joseph Ellingwood and a man named Middleton were killed on Gra- haw's side, and Georze Newton and James Tewkesbury on the Tewkesbury side. ‘The Graham party ambushed near John Tewkes- s house and found Tewkesbury on guard, When the Grahan party was diss covered the fight began.
