THE SPECULATIVE MARKETS. Wheat at the Morning Session Closes With a Loss. “HUTCH' BUYS NOVEMBER CORN. Only a Fair Amount of Activity in Oats—Provisions Again Exhibit Strength—Cattle Trade Siow —~General Quotations. CHICAGO PRODUCE MARKET. Cnicaao, Oct. 26.—[Special Telegram to the Bee.]—The realizing by recent purchas- ers at lower figurea, together with some sell- ing by those whose experience leads them to believe that a decline certainly follows an advance, served to close the morning session in the wheat market with a loss from the opening quotations of the day. Such news 88 was received seemed rather to indicate a different outcome, and did, during the ses- sion, have some effect in that direction, but the tendency of the day was apparently guided by the first named influences. The opening was at a decline of }g¢ from yester- day’s closing for December at 73%(¢ and at yesterday's closing—793¢c—for May. Under realizing sales prices fcll away somewhat and the weak feeling was helped by the rumor that a large quantity of wheat bought Monday by a house of supposed bearish proclivities was all to come out. When the the pressure of the evening-up process was somewhat relieved and it was discovered that only a small portion of the wheat above mentioned was being offered, there was a re- covery to the opening prices. Upon a return to the opening prices the market appeared strong, but did not advance, and there was good quahtity of wheat sold for New York wecount. Thereupon realizing sales of longs began again, and the market sagged during most of the last hour, with a slight reaction in December delivery at the close. Decem- ber wheat opened at 733¢c, sold down to T3¢, back to 748{c, declined to c and closed at o. May opened at_79%c, sold down to 7934, back to 195%c and then down to 79}4c, where it closed. ‘The feature of the corn market this morn- ing was the buying of a large amount of No- vember delivery by Hutchinson and the co sequent talk of & possible squeeze in that month. Under these purchases November corn advanced from 41'¢c—which was the opening—to 4215c. Other deliveries did not advance in proportion, but the effect of the movement was to_induce some covering of short corn, and December advanced from 413¢c at the opening to 41c, and May from 45igc to 45i¢c. Small receipts, present and !;mspmlv«- were the strengthening feature. @ receipts to-day were but 200 curs, 20 less than expected, and the estimate for ' to-mor- row is 250 cars. Prices eased off somewhat in the latter part of the session, when it was observed that the same operator who was bidding up November was taking advantage of the advonce to sell May, and the close was at 413¢c bid for November and 45'gc for May. There was just a fair speculative activity in the market for oats to-day, but trading was confined largely to the May future. A firmer tone prevailed, and 1 o'clock prices poce ashade better than yesterday's clos- ngs. The provision trade again exhibited siderable strength. October short ribs, the house controlling them to declin higher prices were the rule. The hig! quotations of the day, which were made dur- ing the morning, were not sustaine range was better than that of yesterday, while the closings indicated a general im’ provement.

Cnicaao, Oct. 2.—[Special Telegram to the Ber.]—CatTLe—Trade was slow from the start to the finish, yetabout all were sold, but not until late in the day. Native stock ‘was scarce. Buyers of fancy steers for Pitts- burg and New York declared they could not find what they wanted—none good enough— while, on the other hand, there was & liberal supply of good and useful steers, such as ‘would suit the shipping and dressed beef trade, and there was plenty of plain and com- mon stock. There was no particnlar change in prices as compared with yesterday, yet salesmen complained of the difficulty en- countered in working off their stock, es- pecially those that had such as had to com- pete with rangers and Texans, Among the rangers were some really good droves that made about the same prices as heretofore. Buyers for distilleries are taking a large number of rangers. Texans continue to go to canning houses in large numbers. fair and steady business was reported in the stocker and feeder trade. Shipping steers, 1,850 to 1,500 1bs, 83.75@ 4.90; 1, to 1,350 Ibs, $3.40@4.15; 950 to 1,200 1bs, §2. IR0, Stockers and_fecders, 1.75@3.10. Toxas steers, $2.20@2.75; 1.05@?2.15.

Hoes—Trade opened brisk at a slight ad- vance, speculators taking the lead as buyers under the impression that the receipts we u\llll be light, but later trains showed a large in- crease over early estimates, so that toward the close the ordinary run of pucking and mixed sold substantially lower than at the opening.

A decided stringency was noted in the loan crowd, but this, although in the main artificial, had the effect of scaring many nervous shorts into covering. London . @id nothing of consequence aund foreign news contalned nothing of & character to canse alarm. The bears continued their gahble about demoralized rates thronghout the we also about the cutting of rates cast. There was no denying the former, but despite the cut the earnings of the prineipal roads show a fair increase. Northwestern for Septem ber, which was a little late in getting in, was a surprise and showed an increase of $107,491, Reading earnings were also reported heavier, and Mr. Pulim in an futerviow in Boston, was quoted ns waying that the earnings of his company thus far in October showed a gain of 260,000, There was & moderate dis- position on the part of the room traders to sell the market at the opening, but their offerings were rapidly absorbed and prices moved steadily upward. Grangers and Reading received the most attention and ad- vanced 1@1'y per cent. The rest of the list was firm. Oregon Railway & Navigation ad- vanced 21 per cent.

A correspondent from Beaumont, Tex., writes: For over twenty years a wild man by the name of Richardson, with his family, consisting of a wife, with an occasional child added, have inhabited the woodland thickets of Jas- per and Harden counties, hiding hither and thither as occasion might require, subsisting on the native products of the forest, such as acorns, roots, etc.,and when opportunity offered the decaying flesh of dead wild animals. In their wooded retreat, hcdfied in by an almost impenetrable thicket, this strange family lived untrammeled by the rules of civilized society. This life they led until about three months ago, when, unwittingly wandering within three miles of Beaumont, the family, apparently almost overcome with sick- ness and hunger, and unable to wander further, were captured by passers by and brought here. The church appointed a committee, who rented a house for them and under- took to furnish them with all the sub- stantials of life, but old gray heads shook at the action of the committee. That man will die, they said, if you put him in a house where he is protected from the elements; treatment of this kind will kill them' all they need is plenty of rain and uunshme, cold and heat, a hol- low log or grassy meadow to sleep in. But the fated hand of civilization was kindly placed on them. Ina comforta- ble house the tender hands of the first ladies of the land nursed them; preach- ers prayed for, them; they were fur- nished medicin® by the skilled hand of an allopathic physician, fed on the best tho market afforded, but notwith- standing all the kind n-cntment the pre- diction of the gray heads became true, and the wild spirit of the man, the child of nature, and an inhabitant of nature’s wild forests, winged its way to the hn}l);y hunting gloumls of eternal rest. he survivors will now witness the strange sight of seeing the father and husband laid to his eternal rest in the bosom of mother earth, in a coffin made by skilled workmen of some great city, and paid for out of the coffers of Jefterson county, while they look on and wonder like some dumb creatury at the strange proceedings. Thesurvivors of this strange family will now, no doubt, betake themselves to their for- mer retreat, as the toil and worry, and work especially, is exceedingly distaste- ful to them. — In another column of this issue will be found an entirely new and novel specimen of attractive advertising. It is one of the neatest ever placed in our paper, and we think our readers will be well repaid for examining the supposed display letters in the advertisement of Prickiv Ash Bitters.
