THE SPECULATIVE MARKETS. Wheat Opens Up With the Bull Feeling Still Dominating. LOWER PRICES PREVAIL LATER. Corn Shows Vrononnced Weakness and Free Selling Indulged in—Pro- visions Again Slow-—COattle Prices Rule Steady. CHICAGO PRODUCE MARKETS, Cnioaco, Sept. 13.—[Special Telegram to Tnr Bee.)—The crowd gathered around the wheat pit at the opening, with the bull feeling of the previous day still dominating their inclinations, First transactions were around the closing price of tha preceding day, but there was a gradual advance of ¢ from the opening figures, and at that point considerable realizing, which created a weaker feeling anda brought about a decline of #c. There was a long interval of in- activo trading in the neighborhood of 79¢ and 703{¢c, and scalpers began to act on the ge eral principal that after threo bull days a reaction wus in order, and, playing with that end in view, they helped materially to bring about the result they thought had been probable, The opening price for Decembur was 79%c. The highest point reached was 7%, the 7 the closing L ) or }4c lower than it stopped yesterday. The Ynews" of the day.was generally in favor of the advocates for higher prices. Foreign markets were steady and quotations wero advanced about }a at Liverpool. The move- ment of wheat to South America still con- tinues on a fairly liberai scale, 76,000 bushels of yesterany’s clearances of wheat frem New York veing for the river Platte, with two more cargoes said to bo loadmg in New York to-day for Buenos Ayres. The general export movement, however, is small and therein lies the point iu the argument of the bulls, as one of their chief contentions is that European countries are very imuch short of wheat and must perforce buy of us. The bears say that “secing is believing,"” and, lacking this palpable proof of their oppo- nents’ contention, they refuse to take stock in it. There are reports of buying by for- eigners in Duluth, a dispateh from there to- day saying that purchasers of September wheat were uot having 1t delivered to them and were compelled to buy in the country. Prices were temporarily 1o higher in that market to-day, There were heavy rains in the north west, which were expected to inter- tere with farmers' deliveries, and receipts at winter wheat points were light, while here they wera less than estimated yesterday, and out of 156 cars received only six eraded No. 2. The running-in of a prominent bear oper- ator early in the day was one of the in- fluences tending to the first advance. Ho was supposed to_have been short 1,000,000 bushels and began buying at 70gc. St. Louis was again bullish, and_a prominent miiler there bought freely of No. 8at 3= aivance to-day, according to a dispatch Trom thence, There was a pronounced weakness and free selling of corn, especially later deliver- {es, and more especially May. The tone of the market wus taken from the weather, ‘which bud no appearance of frost in it. ILv- ery day of such weather as 18 now being en- joyed throughout the corn belt adds to the ranks of the bears und correspondingly thins out the believers in higher prices. The prospect of at least 1,950,000,000 bushels behlk aaded to the stock as the result * the year's crop is tho paramoant mongm in the minds of the spec- ulators, with which in view they appeared to think selling to-day eminently safe. Sep- tember showed general weukness, but the solling pressure was mainly directed to a more distant delivery, as already noted. The decline since yesterday was 5¢ in Septem- ber and 5o in May, the closing figures being September 88c and May 843c. 1n oats the speculative market was quiet and after a steady opening ruled weak and slow, The receipts again exceeded the esti- mates, but the decline in corn was the prin- cipal factor in a slightly downward move- ment of values. This was not severe, how- ever, as there was no pressure to sell. After opening steady at 23i¢c Muy was sold down o 223{@227¢c, with nearer months relatively gm:)n No. 2 regular was dull, with 19}{¢ id, Provisions were again slow. During the early morning, particularly, trading was on 8 limited scale, and for the day the entire business made a poor showing. ‘iraders had apparently but few outside orders, and in the way of general speculation a conserva- tive feeling was favored. Still the product, as a rule, was well supported, and there was 1o deyelopment to occasion any uueasiness. Based on yesterday's final closing, quota- tions showed a net. improvement of 15c in October pork, 24¢ in October and January lard and October short ribs, 7i¢e in Januar; rk and 5o in January short ribs. Septem- er lard dechned 2go. CHICAGO LIVE STOCK. Ciiicaco, Sept. 18.—|Special Telegram to Tup Bek]|—Carrie—The general market ruled quict and prices steady as compared with yesterday. The receipts were divided at 8,000 Texans, 2,000 rangers and 5,000 na- tives, and there wero fewer Da- tives—that is medium good—than any day this wees. There were o few loads of brime export steers, equal in quality to anything here this week, and they sold equally as well a8 any day this week. Suid salesmen that handle Texans excluswvely: “If we had prime fat steers they would sell higher than any doy this week, but canners and com- mon steers are as low as ever. Another salesman who makes & spec alty of the range trade said: ‘““Thero seoms to be no standard to guide oue in trade this year.” A lot may be good enough to make §0.00 and directly in the next pen you There is no regularity in pr and no regularity in the quality of the stoc!

New Yors, Sept. 13.—|Special Telegram to Tue Bre.|—S100Kks—Expressions from the trade after the close of stock business last might indicate that the uction of yester- aay was a surprise. It was only explained as u periodical shaking off of the following by those in control. I'here was nothing in the condition to warrant it. Nat Jones voices western sentiment when he says that the good earnings basis for good buying has just begun. 8. V. White does not take so rosy @ view. He counts on heavy money needed W wove cereals aud cotton, uud foars another period of stringency. A less popu- lar theory on the market is that for a few days it has been mawpulated to sell on, that the outside support has not beeu sausfactory and the insiders have been gettig out while the trumpeting was kept up. The opening of the market this morning was without special features, Such changes as sppeared from last night were fractionally lower, Louisville dropped w0 76 and recovered ¥ snd Transcoutinental gained X per cent. Northern Pacific preferred weul off )¢ per cont to 74% and rebounded to 753 the first nour. Among westarn stocks St. Paul lost 3¢ and Missouri Pacific 3% per cent, while Union Puacific opened i¢ per cent higher at 643 and moved up to 65. There was active trading in St. Paul, Union Pacifie, Louisville & Nashville, Missouri Pac:fic and Northern Pacific preferred, but the remainder were quiet to dull throughout., The only other marked movement in the list was an advance of 3¢ per cent in Canadian Pacific to 604, The settlement of the London strike gave an impetus to the buying of certain stocks be- fore the close, This alone prevented very general losses throughout the list for the day. Loumsville went to 773 to tha close. Lake Shore picked up some and Missour: Pacific reacted a point from the bottom. The Granger group closed generally steady, with St. Paul and Burlington each X per cent lower. The conditions remained un- changed.

The fresh roceipts of stockers and feeders were light, and as about everything was cleaned up yesterday, there was little here to do with. However, there were not many buyers here, and the 8upply was just about equal to the demand.

Tmagine an old lady of sixty (I ean not consider one to be very old at fifty) dressed in a complete suit'of gray, and crown her gray hairs with one of the present style, and you would immedialely be reminded of the grey mildew of the resurrection. There is nothing in this dress which lends a sparkle to the eye, but the fuce gradually nssumes a severe, storn as- pect, or else one of sorrow. Now why should this be? When nature is de ing she puts on her gavest robes; all creation is lighted up by their effulgent boauty. We rejoice and revel in all this pervading lovelinoss. Then why not take & hint from nature, and put even a suggestion of something bright in our dress? I am not an advocate for the old ad hering so faithfully 1o the present fash- jons, but I keep them in view so that I may not appear singular, Let the dress be bright, that among the household group, or in scciety you will not appear or feel yourself a shadow among them. It is not worth while for the aged to sit with folded hands waiting for that summons which comes to us all, dressec in the dark weeds of death, or in sacl cloth und ashes, but let us go forth i tho autumnal tints of nature making as far as our strength is equal those around py. This course would brighten i a home and keep inmates from wandering into the mazes of vice to find that pleasure which should only be found around a bright, cheerful fireside. . M.

One of the most striking instances ot successful women is Mrs. Sarah Yew- dall, the provrietor of the Providence worsted mills, at Ieswnville, who, though now seventy-six years old, re- tains in a remarkable degree the vigor and energy thut enabled her to build up a large industry and make it pay, says the Philadelphia Record. The mills were originally erected by Mr. Yewdall 1n 1860, und he managed them until his death in 1866, caused by the explosion of a large boiler in his house. Mrs. Yewdall was over fifty years old when her husband died, and knew com- paratively nothing of the business; but she had five children to support, and she did not hesitate to take the maan- ment of the mills. She made a careful study of the machinery and was rapidly building np the business, when a terri- ble accident happened in the mill. One of the boilers exploded, killing the en- giner instantly and fatally wounding several other persons and causing a loss of over $55,000, on which there was no insurance. Mrs. Yewdall cared for the families of the victims and set herself with remewed eneérgy to the work of shing the mill to the front. She is csedited with turning out excellent yarns, for which there is a constant de- mand. Three of her sons now hold im- portant positions in the mills, and she no longer has to give it the same atten- tion as before. Chamberlain's *Colic, Cholera: and Diarrhea Remedy.

Says an authority on gems: A woman who hasa red face will not wear emeralds. A woman with a poor com- plexion does not improve it with pearls. These lovely and innocuous ornaments really derive their chief lastre from a trangparent skin, as they depend large- ly on reflected lights, A woman whose face, however beautiful,takes verdatres tiots in the shadows should avoid rubies, especially pink ones, and roseate topazes, A face may have these greenish tints without damage to beauty, remember. Every face has a great deal of green to it, asa portrait painter will tell you. Giotto (who painted the loveliest angels conceiv- able) and all his pupils made the shaaows on gn'la’ faces startingly green, and the eyes green, too, sometimes, and yet we receive the r quisite delicacy and b red is the complementa green, and if the dress should be pink, and no help for it, the jewels nearer the fuce ought to counteract it. —~— Excursion to Columbus, Ohio, September 18th to 16th inclusive, “The Rock Island Route™ will sell excursion tickets to Columbus, Ohio, and return, at half-fare, for the annual meeting of Sovereign Grand Lodge, Patriarchs’ Militant, and I. 0.
