gfe SBUdtffci Sailtj fgggle: gxx&ffamtins, &wmfotx 10, 1899 r it! V Another Busy Day aad the Quality Good, TOPS" REST ON $3-87 1-2 Cattle Market Steady With Two Good Sales. The local hog market yesterday was quoted as steady with a very good supply of hogs. The day opened "with a good line of car Hogs in sight, those arriving late the night before, and they all sold early and. at good strong prices. The bal ance of the forenoon the receipts were mostly from the wagon trade and local offerings, jyid these in the end showed up heavy in point of volume and the grade and quality, of them was very good. There was a large wagon trade, just as was predicted'in thee columns as would occur after the'exoitement of election was over, pver 200-piogs came in from this division and theywere promptly bid upon and sold and at gftod figures. At the time of the cioso the-scale register showed that eight pars of, "hogs had been weighed up and transferred, and at prices the best in conformity with the other western mar kets. Tiie hogs received yesterday from the car lots were heavy, repeating the run of the past two weeks, and the aver age weight of them went up thirteen pounds more than the weight of the day before, Wednesday, registering 252. There was a- good demand for hogs just the same, in spite of the heavy weight and everything offered, practically, was taken and at the best prices. The quality of the hojjs on sale yesterday was generally good, there being few cutouts or skips, and most Jof 'them being well fattened stock. Again the bulk range was very narrow, the entire list, both wagon and car lots going at prices between J3.S0 and $3.872, a 7 cent range. As for car of ferings alone, the range was $3.S2 to J3.S714, a 5 cent limit. The former range also took in a large amount of the local offerings. The receipts fell off a little from tho day before, so far as actual sales are concerned, but it may be mentioned jiere that several cars of hogs were re ceived late-in the day and after the close and after dark, too late to inspect, and were held over for today's trading. They will be sold early this morning, in fact (he most of them were contracted for last night at good prices and will simply be weighed up today and inspected. It was a good day all around and everyone atlsfied, and was another indication that the shipping of butcher hogs was re sumed after the midsummer quiet. REPRESENTATIVE SALES. iN'o. Dock. Av. Wt.

Joe Porter of Towanda was on the mar ket with a car load of hogs, and while hero also did some buying of stock. The Dold shipments yesterday were just normal in the Jobbing division, with a. good express trade, and the straight contract output good,' and the contracted eales strong. All departments are run ning over time to keep up with the regu lar dally orders, but each night finds al orders filled and on their way. The roads doing the hauling yesterday 'were as follows: Santa Fe 4, Missouri pHoiflo 4, Frisco 2. There Is scarcely a day in the year but mie important improvement is in pro ses at the Dold plant. Klther an added department or building. Improvements on already built departments, or else ex tended conveniences, are all the time go ing on. Two new emergency smoke (houses have been built within a few months, a- .1 constantly enlarged storage capacity. A'.-ut a year ago It was found thnt the syou m of driving the hags from tt he pen! up to the killing floor in the fifth story hftted them so that the meat was not in the best of condition, and at once a new astern v started, that of driving them only t 5rSt floor where tbeyjwore killed at tv trcass ant vr by elevator to t ping "and fin ishing floors.

It is of 42-foot span and 16 feet wide, nearly twice the width of the former bridge. In stead of sending the live hogs Into a j "pocket" as before, a full width exit will t be arranged much more convenient than the 'former arrangement Superintendent Darrigrand is looking after the building of the bridge, and Boss Carpenter Tom Mallory is in charge of the men. Besides this important change the slaughtering department has a new improved steam scraper carrying 190 knives and greatly augmenting the already almost perfect nechanlcai arrangement of this de partment. As soon as any depairs or im proved methods are needed the enter prising Dold management at once "pro ceeds to get them. Besides the listed sales reported, there were about ten cars of hogs from regular shippers .received on belated trains late last evening. "Most of them were of first jclass fat butcher condition. They were all well cared for, penned and fed and watered and some of them bid upon at vmce In spite of the darkness. All will sell at the best market prices possible. Provisions were firm but not active, showing an upward tendency which is holding prices. Both lard and ribs closed steady to upward. LivxyrocK: markets. CHICAGO. Chicago, Nov. 9.

Chlcago,""Nov. '9. An Increase In stocks and a languid demand resulted in wheat touching the lowest point of the recent decline. Covering by shorts later ad vanced the price, December closing un changed and May cent lower. Corn was firm on light country offerings, De- j cember closJ and M y p r visions snowea strengtn, wun nigner nog prices, closing 2c over yesterday, Oats closed Vtc higher. The weakness of Liverpool was the paramount factor in the opening of 1 wheat. The initial price was unchanged Pom yesterday's close, December at 6Sl, j G&YiC and May at 72c, but sellers were in tho majority and prices eased off to j 67c for December and 7172c for May. phorts- and those trying to protect puts j got into action at these figures and their buying forced an -advance, December 'climbing to GSy9c and May to 72c. The in crease in stocks and the lack of foreign demand added to the influence of Liver pool were too much for the market to hold up under, however. Liquidation .be came quite general and the price sagged to a point lower than at any time during the present decline. December slumped to 67igv67c and May to 71c. Late In the session the strength of corn and good j export demand at New York brought better support to the market. At the j bottom figure shorts became active buy ers and December advanced to 686SJ4c I and 'May to 72c bid, at which they closed, j Trading during the most of the day was I without animation. Statistics were gen i erally bearish. The Price Current said I winter wheat was doing well, although ,OhIo and Michigan reported some Inroads made by tne Hessian fly. New York re ported 47 loads taken for export and the seaboard 35 loads. Receipts were light. Clearances were "445,000 bushels. Te visi ble la expeoted to Increase 2,000,000 or more. Corn held Its own throughout the ses sion save for a little weakness with wheat at the opening. The bull feature was the absence of country offerings. Receipts were small. Atlantic port clearances were 6SO.00O bushels. The trade was dull December closed at 3U4f 31aac and May at 32c. Sympathy with corn and some buying by shorts held oats firm. The market v,as dull. December closed at 22'i22c. Receipts small; clearances 19,000 bushels. Hogs at the yards were 5o higher, a fact to which was due the strength exhibited by provisions. Trading was extremely dull throughout the session and fluctua tions were within a narrow range. The close was at a gain of 2c all around, January pork at $9.72, January lard at $5.25'55.27J and January ribs at $3,024.

TRAIN DITCHED BY WRECKERS On the Michigan Central and Three 31en Seriously Injured. Toledo, Ohio, Nov. 9. Michigan Central train No. 310, from Toledo to (Detroit, was ditched by the spreading of rails between Alexis and Vienna, Mich., about 8 o'clock tonight. Three persons were seriously In jured. They are: John McKay, Indiana polls; John O'Nell, Detroit, fireman; Wil liam Hamilton, engineer. Ten other per sons were painfullj hurt and fifteen or twenty others were badly shaken up. William Hamilton, the engineer, was thrown throusrh the window of his cab and, though perhaps fatally Injured, he retained sufficient presence of mind when iie recovered from the shock to hurry to his engine and draw the fire, thus pre venting an explosion. The accident was the result of a deliberate piece of work by unknown train wreckers, and happen ed at a point just beyond a short trestle. Where the rails spread it was found that the bolts that had held the fishplates had been unscrewed. The nuts were lying on the ties and the thrfads of the bolts were not marred In any way. A cpuple of big wrenches such as section 'hands use were found lying beside the track, indicating how- the rails had been loosened. The early reports of the wreck were 'alarm' Ing and the railroad company summoned every available physician from Toledo and elsewhere. A special hospital train was ordered from Detroit and the in jured will be taken there. MAY CLAIM TO BE ARBITRATED lie Is au American Whoso Railroad Guatemala Stole New York, Nov. 9. A special to the .Herald from Washington sajs: Guatemala-has agreed to arbitrate the R. II. May claim, according to a dispatch re ceived by Secretary Hay from Minister Hunter. Guatemala has denied May's right to Indemnity, but has expressed her willingness to submit all disputed' points to arbitration, with instructions to deter mine if the right to damage exists, and if so, the amount which should be award ed. The claim of Mr. May Is the result of his dispossession foyithe Guatemala government from his rlghts-lp. the Guate malan Northern railroad. Mr. May had been commissioned, by contract entered into early in 1S93, to operate the road from April, 1S9S, to April, 1S99. He was to pay the government a royalty from the reve nues. The Guatemalan government showed a disposition to Interfere with the management of the road, and finally, In October last year, cancelled the con tract, paying Mr. May $100,000. This sum he did not consider sufficient, and he filed the claim which is now to bo arbi trated. HOW JOHN BULL SIZES IT UP Thinks It mean ZMTrKlnley for a Second Presidential Term. London, Nov. 9. The Daily News, com menting upon the American election, says It believes Mr. Bryan has no chance for the presidency, and that Mr. M,cKin ley has every reason to hope for a second term. "President McKlnley," it de clares, "will noy have a free hand la the Philippines. Nevertheless, he had better make haste to win. He has ob tained a sort of renewed lease of public confidence, but nothing more." The newspapers unanimously regard Mr. McKlnley's election to a second presidential term a3 assured. The Daily Chronicle, commenting upon the presi dent's l"bo!d Imperialistic policy In Chi na," says: "This is the sort of courage which commands success. In these cir cumstances It seems almost Inconceiv able that he should fail to secure re election." VICTORY IS A GLORIOUS ONE This Has Little an llnnna Can Flcure Out of It. Cleveland, Ohio. Nov. S.

The Joe will probab."j rea is f j am i 52 .3X, to $3W YJL 0 Oil Is Pronounced Among Hold ers of Stocks, TREASURY WON'T RELIEVE Silver Certificates Bought at a Sharp Advance, New York, Nov. S. A general disposi tion ta liquidate In speculative holdings was manifest in the stock market today. Early in the day some general strength was manifested, which was due primar ily to the high quotations cabled from London and which was aided by strength in special stocks; but the growing stiff ness of money and the total absence of any outside buying demand discouraged the bull element and there were sellers of the whole list as the day advanced. The weakness of stocks was very well distributed, except for a special collapse in Leather, and affected all departments of the list. Declines in the industrials and specialties are rather greater, be cause the committments for the long ac count In those stocks were larger. There was very heavy selling throughout the railroad list and a large number of prom inent stocks In that department show net declines of a point or upward. In the specialties the average runs between one and two points for the leading stocks. An exception should be made of the iron and steel stocks, several of which offered good resistance to decline. Steel and ,wlre and American Hoop were examples. Attention was almost wholly centered In the money market outlook. The continu ing demands on the New York banks are regarded as foreshadowing a still fur ther decrease in the proportion of cash reserves in the next bank statement. The cmDhatlc utterances bv treasurv of ficials against the policy of any further J measures oi renei Dy tne government 'dissipated the hopes that were prevalent In Wall Street jesterday. As the banks have lost already to the sub-treasury something like $3,000,000 since last Friday, the altitude of the treasury Is import ant. Shipments by the New York banks to their Interior correspondents are re ported to be on as largo a scale as last week. New York exchange at Chicago fell again today to 10 cents discount com pared with 10 cents premium at the op ening of the week. The continued ex pansion in the Interior need for money and the absorption of the treasury by means of the surplus In the revenues Is me tby the calling In of loans placed In the stock market on stock collateral. There was a sharp fall In sterling ex- J change today, partly due to the firmer coal money market and partly to an In creased supply of collateral bills which are now coming forward In larger vol ume. But the weekly statement of the Bank of England, showing a progressive decline In the proportion of reserves to liability, precludes the hope of relief from that Quarter. The recuperation shown by the Bank of France in its weekly statement relieves the apprehen sion of an Immediate rise in that Institu tion's rate of dfscount, but this is a small palliation of the generally harden ing tendency of the world's money mar kets. The closing of the stock market was easy and near the loow price of tho day for most stocks. An incident of the day was tho demand for silver certifi cates at a sharp advance.

Andrew Carnegie and Mrs. Carnegie were passengers on the White Line steamer Oceanic, which arrived at her pier today from Liver pool. Mr. Carnegie appears in good health. He snld that the reports that he intend ed to become a-bject of Great Britain were without founffation, for. he said, "where a man's treasure is. there his heart Is also." Speaking of the present war between F.nf land and the Beyers. Mr. Carnegie said: "The war against the "Boots Is most In famous and unjust and it was brought about -by England's Just for domain' and la on a par with our attack on the poor Filipinos. These two attacks arc a dis grace to both branches of our race. The people In tho Transvaal and tho Orange Free State have n eight to rule them- selvos. One war Is an, attack on an exist ing and the other on an embryonic re public. It Is worce for us to attack the Filipinos than for Enghind to attack the Boers, for we fall from, a greater height, as we believed in government by the con cert of tho governed. The ibest men In England hiv spoken against the war In tl.e Transvaal and everywhere it la de plored except by those whose Interests are served "by It. Thy are a small clique of Jlntroes, headed by a statesman, I am sorry to say, who sees in the war a Che nee to fortify his pojdtlon." Mr. Carnegie orrtertaIrnd decidedly op timistic views cf the busCnes outlook and the prosperity or the country. Ho iald: "I can only look at the business outlook here from abroad, which Is sometimes a good point of view. I baltavo that nothing can stop 1900 from -being a year of great prosperity, always provided that In view of the present excited fitntc of tho world and the danger of war begetting war. the Fnlted States keeps out of the strug gle. Now that this country has" foreign possesions there is moro danger than eer." I'AUNCKFOTK O V TICK TtOTIilt WA It New York, Nov. 9. Lord Pauncefote, British ambassador to the United States, arrived here today on the Oceanic. He said he was glad to get Swck to this country. "I have lived here for ten yenra," he said, "and I feel that 1 am qulta an American." The ambassador was asked if h"was do ing anything to further the good feeling between this country and Tsngland. Ta replied: "Nothing, nothing mare than I have been doing for the last tan year. I am a great believer In the roost friendly relations between our Anglo-Sajcon na tions. Our Interests are in many reapcta the same." Lord Pauncefote inquired eagerly after news from the Transvaal, wanting to know particularly If the British troops at Ladysmlth bad held their own. He said: "I am glad that "Ladyamlth h not fallen and I believe ttiat the situation there will seon be relieved. General Duller la com ing up to relieve General wHlte and tbla will change tbe situation there There hav bVn revernc. it 1 true, but the thtnsrs are to be expected in a war The aid which was given by the Brltleb ahlp Powerful cannot be overestimated, the. gang and the men which wre landed hav ing done great service in South Afrl-a.
