e T2 sy Aprie— S A Continuation THE SPECULATIVE MARKETS. of Saturday's ‘Woeakness in Wheat. REPORT Corn Opens With a Downward Tend- ency But Strength Supplants It—Provisions Nervous— Hogs Active, GOVERNMENT TALK, CRICAGO PRODUCE MARKETS, Cuicaco, Sept. 8.—[Special Telegram to Tne Bre.l—There was a continuation of Saturday's weakness in to-day's wheat mar- ket, which was relieved, however,by a few efforts to infuse some spirit into it, though this resulted 1n as many relapses back to its opening feebleness. The jeasons for the limpness were not far to seck, lying as they did in plain view. Upon the public bulletin boards cables were weak and lower and the weather in England was reported fine. Here it was all that could be desired by the bears, To-morrow's government report was being discussed in the wheat pit, the majority ap- pearing to expect some improvement in the condition of spring wheat, which was in some degree a guide to the preference shown for the selling side of the market. The vis- ible supply figures, whnile still an uncertain quantity, were the chief topic of speculation, and the dropping of several warchouses 1n Minneap- olis from the enumeration of stocks at that point caused some extra figur- ing by impatient arithmeticians on the floor who cannot wait upon the official aelibera- tion. The range of prices was down to 8S¢, December opening at 7i%c, advancing to 77%c and again up and down its narrow rango several times, closiug flnally at 775¢o, tha. being also the price at the close on Sat- urday. Th corn market opened weak, active and ‘with consideruble selling pressure, which, however, was quickly sueceeded by a feeling of greater confidence when it was seen how readily the offerings were absorbed. There was no encouragement to holders in the ex- port movement and cables were wenk and lower. These last, however, were probably identified by the limpness of the markets on this side. To-morrow’s government esti- mate of the present condition of the crop is awaited with no little interest and traders were inclined to be cautious to-day in view of considerable divergence of views as to its probable showing. The closing prices were September 333 @33}¢c and May 30ic, ngainst 883¢c and 85} ¢ respectively on Saturday. Oats were devoid of special feature of interest, ruling practically firn A mild in- quiry existed for May at 225 @22%c, but buying orders were, as a rule, 'limited to - side figures, and the actual volume of busi- ness was not great. Cash and near months averaged less than last week’s latest prices. For a few cars of No. 2 regular 19c was pad. No. 2 white oats were dull, with Sep- tember delivaries at 2 In provisions the week opened with the feeling nervous. Early sales, as a general thing, were made at prices showing a small advance on Saturday's closings, but the market commanded little or no support. There was no outside buying and among prnh'nmlml traders there was no disposi- branch cut. Trading failed to ex- mm either feature or life, and as the day progressed values dropped down from the morning’s first level. The product all around sold off, though, compared with Sat- urday’s last quotations, short ribs and Janu- ary pork aud lard closed unchanged. Lard for September suffered a decline of 5¢ and for October of 23¢c. CHICAGO LIVE STOTH. Cuicaco, Sept. 9.—|Special Telegram to Tue Bee.|--Cattue—The general markot opened slow, more on account of the difti- culty in finding pen room than otterwise, and it was well on in the fcfenoon before salesmen were ready to show their stock. The run was divided at 8,000 Texavs, 5,000 rangers and 12,000 natives. With this num- ber to dispose of salesmen realized that a shurp down turn must be the result of the day’s work, and wise ones did not hesitate to meet the views of buyers. Everything— natives, Texans, rangers and all—sold 10@ 16¢ lower than on Friday. The only exception was a few loads of exports, so few that they made no impression on the other %00 ana odd loads on sale, e pens were full of fair to good medium natives, showing plenty of corn in their composition, ail of which sold slow from #tart to finish, closing rather weak at the decline mentionea above, with a_good many of the more common and rough lots unsold. About all the ‘Texans and rangers were sold, Native butchers' stock shared in the general dovn turn and closed dull, little or nothing going on in the stocker and feeder trade.

F1 light ANClAL. New Youk, Sept. 9.—|Special Telegram to THE Bee.|—ST0OCKS—Gossip about stocks after the close on Saturday was of a less ouesided character than on previous days. Same of the more conservative bulls ex- pressed the beliof that the present bull con- ditions were fully diecounted and thought that further advances in the general list now will but make a reaction more to be dreaded. Notwithstanding this feeling prevailed very largely, the market again opened on the bulge this morning with coalers the principal exception. First prices were }{@!¢ per cent over Saturday. A further fractional im- provement was mnade all over the list. There was new life developed in Northern Pacific, however, and St. Paul preferred rose 1% ver cent to 77){ and common 3/ per cent to 36, while advances in the remainder of the list were confiued to small fractions only. Coal stocks were exceptions to the rule and all displayed weakness, though the only marked movement among them was a decline in Delaware & Hudson from 155 to 154. The business done was not ‘so widely distributed as usual of late, and while Louisville & Nash- ville, Missouri Pacific, Northern Pacific pre- ferred, Reading, Atchison, Lackawanna, and St. Paul were very active, the general List was quiet and cven dull. Manitoba moved up quickly to 110, just at 11 o'clock, and the feeling was sufficiently strong to hold prices at about the best fizures. The stock market proved irregulur before the close. The best prices of the day were reached about noon, when Louisville reached 76, Manitoba 111, an advance from the opening of 2 per cent. Northern Pacific reached 36 and preferred 7714, Later there were very neavy realizing sales, especiully in Grangers. Prices did not, break sharply av any pointof the list, buv went off slowly, and only in a few cases went below their Saturday figures, The markot closed fairly firm, with the trade pretty well divided on a further advance and a decided reaction. The total sales tor the day were 286,000 shares, ‘The followingz wero the closing quotations : U.8.4s regular. 17 |Nocthorn Pacifc.. § . 48 coupons do proterred.

With the heaviest cattle receipts of the year and with a beavy run avd lower prices at eastern poiots, bo one could expect a very brisk market here. The trade was slow al) day and only & small pioportion of the cattle here changed hands. Heef cattle sold lower, and although it is a by no means easy atter o tell how much lower, it would be safe to place the decline at 10c. Sowme na- tives sold at $2.75@4.00, largely at $3.00@ 8.80, he westeras brought $2.85@3.05, but mostly $2.85@2.45. Butchers’ stock was not 80 very pleuty, and, althougn the buyers were bidding cousiderably lower, they = did not get so wuch off. Western cows sold at #1.50@1.85. There was no end to the feeders on sale, and with otber cattle weak and slow, it was not surprising that the buyers should want to buy them lower. Native foeders sold at $2.50@2.60. Hogs.

Below we give some of the figures showing the extént of the dressed beef business in Chicago, pre- pared by the same writer; The dressed beef business in Ameriea was founded some twenty years ago. A fow years later the work wos taken up by the late Mr. George H. Hammond, of Detroit. who may be termed the father of this busin He was a man of fine executive abili and he built up through his energics a magnificent trade. He died, unfortunately, just when he had reached the zenith of his powers. Other parties took up the busi- ness, and it has gradually grown (figur- atively speaking) from & grain of mus- tard 8088 40 & very lacge tree. Mr. Eastman, one of the largest live stock shippers 'in America, branched off into this trade; Mr. Nelson Morris, well known to every cattleman both at home aud abroad, also took a hand: in 1880, Mr. G. F. Swift began upon a most e tensive scalo; while two years later Messrs. Armour & Co. also commenced the busincss. We have now in Chicago four immense concerns, viz: Swift & Co., Armour & Co., Hammond & Co., and Nelson Morris & Co. These firms, ulong with Libby, McNeill & Libby, buy a very large propovtion of the cat- tle coming into our market.

The Strange Reptile Abe Johnson Kilied Near Orleans, The Orleans Press is responsible for the following: Abe Johnson, a thrash- erman who is fast sifting out the golden grain southwest of town, tells abouv a snake he kilied last Tuesday. He was staking down the horse power justsouth of two ricks of wheat when his dog came to u point with every hair on his back pointing straight up. Abe was suddenly sta; by seeing an enor- mous rattlesnake rear his head beside one of the stacks. Abe soon got his re- volver from the machine tool-box and put a 44 through the serpent’s head. A rope was made fast just back of the snake's head and a team pulled him out from under the ack., The exact measurement of this immense rattler was 21 feet and 7-10ths of an inch, TIts body was six inches in diameter, and upon cpening the old rattler three rab- bits and two dozen hen’s eggs were found inside. A peculiar brownish stone, the size and shape of a minature grave stone, was also found imbeded in the side of the snake. but the Jewish character could not be made out wholly. A Nobraska graduate present discerned the notorial seals of Moses in one cor- ner, and it issupposed the stone con- tained the portion of the ten command- ments which forbids lying. There were eighty-nine rattles ou its tail and the poison sacks at the root of the three- inch teeth were as large us duck eggs. = THE JUDGE WAS GALLANT But He Couldn’t Save the Lady Pas- senger's Wardrobe. Sol Bunker of Beulah, has puton a tri-weekly stage line between Sundance and Field City, says the Sundance, Wyo., Gazette. His. first passenger came in with him last, night from Tub- town, and the incident afforded no little excitement to a usually monotonous pas- snge. The passenger was a female, a girl of the town, and ‘she pleaded pov- erty, but she off her trunk and clothes for security to pay the fare. A few milos out from Tubtown Deputy Swisher overtook them and proceeded toattach the trunk and contents. Rather than ses the poor girl deprived of her wardrobe the judge paid the claim 'of $7, and they proceeded on their way. About half way to this place they ‘were ngain over- hauled, this time by twp men, who at once pu]lfid their guns, held up the ari- ver and appropriated the trunk and contents and then departed, claiming that it was done to satisly a bill due them. The judge says he is going to buy a pistol. Sl LORD SALISBURY'S SIRVANTS The Army of Personal Retiiners Em- ployed by Britain’s Premies. The preseut Marquis of Sulisbury keeps about seventy indoor servants, exclusive of depeudents of a higher class; such as private secretaries, libra- rians and chaplains, says a London correspondent of the Philadelphia Press. Allof the servunts are only in activity when the marquis isat Hat- field, his London residence not requir- ing so large a service. 1 give the cata- logue roughly in the order of import- ance.

Of women-servants, there are eight kitchen-maids, whos ranges from $125 to 8375 n year; 1t house-maids and four still-room maids, ail of whose By ison the same scale as that of the itchen-maid. I have omitted to mention four larder boys, whose pay is probably very small, but who doubtless have a good oppor- tunity of getting fat. Then there are n number of workmen 1in constant em- ployment on the house; a large num- bor of pensioners and a long string of professional or educated men. Some- times 180 visitors and servants are at Hatfield at a time. The upper servants dress for dinner, though }ur that mat- ter they are usually in evening dress, and my ex-butler told me that forty servants, male and female, in full dress, often sit down to dinner in the upper servants’ hall, This includes, of course. the valots and lady’s maids of visitors, Of course, a very import em in the income of these servants is con- by tips, which they call 8, a_correct, but somewhat un- usual word. The servants who com- most in _contact h visitors receive fally half their wages over again in the form of tips Lord Salishury spends a fortune every year among employes at Hatfield, in- doors and out. He has, for instance,a head gardener with twenty-five assist- ants, und a forester with twenty men under him. The total yearly expendi- ture of Lord Salisbury is about $100,000, and he is by no means one of the richest of his cl These facts only refer to the servants of the very exalted. They find the life to be one of uninterrupted and balmy content. The servants of the smart, but poorer people in the West End of London do not have nearly such a good time. These are the people who must keep showy men servants, but cannot afford to have a proper supply of help in the kitchen. It is generally believed that when they have their housos crowdad at the height of the London seuson the servants are stowed away to sleep somewhere in the cellars. —_— Making “Russian’ Cavaire. At Delaware City, Md., three firms with large capital engaged in the work of sturgeon catching, and the preparation of ‘‘Russian’ caviare. Last spring 4,700 sturgeons were caught, valued at $22,560. Of the total catch 2,820 were roe fish, which netted 720 kegs of caviare of 140 pounds each, valued at $19,440. Most of this caviare were shipped to Germany, but some of it will return to this country as ‘‘best imported,” direct from Rus: S SO Bee News Stands.

A striking letter of a not unusual sort came to the desk of the appointment clerk of the postoffice department a day or two ago, says o Washington special. It had evidently boen written with much difficulty. It was signed “‘Eliza John- son”’ and pmtnmrlmdl‘hll.\«h'lplnu The letter read thus: Dear Brother Wanamaker: 1 have not had the opportunity to speak to_you since 1 saw you at our Bethany on Sunday last. You will remember shaking hands with me and asking me_about my wolfawe. Thero was something I wanted to speak to vou about, but did not thiuk it proper on the Lord's day. 1Ilive with a family near Philadelphin and can only get to Hothany every other Sunday. I would like to have a piace n the Philadelphia postoftice when 1t is changed 80 that I can have my Sundays for christian work. It would be a great boon to me. — J the Horss Thief.
