WILMINGTON, H. C. Wednesday Mokkiko, Oct. 14 GRAIN AND PROVISIONS. TObsat Mid Corn Aoiirs aad Higher Pork Product Closed With Decline In FiioM. By TelegTaph to the Morning Star. Chicago, October 13. It was more than a surprise to even the most san guine bull to find the price ol wheat on the curb this morning from lf to ljfc higher than it was when he went home yesterday. Thebujyancy extended to the regular market, and opening prices were attll a little better than the unoi ficial ones. The one iodic of discussion. as well as oi speculative properties, was the demand from I tdia and Australia for cargoes at San Francisco.' The in formation on the crop from the latter country was also calculated to inspire . confidence in the advance. Compared with these considerations everything else bore the stamp of importance. The tone of the market was invariably firm to strong, and tbe greater part of the ap preciation was well sustained torougn out. December wheat opened from 70 to 703KC sold between 70V and 70 Kc. closing at 70U&70XS, - lX&lMc higher than yesterday. Cash was lc bieher. I Corn was scar eel? less active than wheat at the opening to-day; stimulated by the strength of Liverpool cables an advance of Id being reported at that place, and by, tbe buoyancy ot wheat prices started; n at a material gain over vesterdav s close, maintaining tbe tone of firmness subsequently. The large charters at this puce recently and the demand from abroad tend to encourage ' traders. Mav corn opened from 28V. 88Kc. advanced to 2S3ic closing at 2Sjc c higher tbao vesterdav. Cash corn was quoted at Klc higher than vesterdav. , Oats The booming ; propensity of wheat and corn was not without ' influ ence on oats. May oats closed z higher than vesterdav. Cash oats ad' vanced Provisions Tbe bull fever was on in provisions, too, this morning. Prices were aeain higher, and that, with soar . ins inclinations of grains, afforded the necessary motive for better things in the product,- Late in the session a re ceding movement set . in. and every thing receded. January pork and lard each closed 5c under vesterday. and January ribs 8f c lower. WASHINGTON NEWS.

The Suh gays : Spot cotton here advanced l-16c; middling uplands 8c. The exports from the ports were) 16.329 bales. Futures here advanced three to five points, lost this, but rallied and advanced six to ten points, closing steady at a net advance of three to seven points, with s lies of 193 400 bales. The sentiment to-day was generally bullish and prices advanced. The trad ing was moderately active and the fluctuations in prices were Irequent and t times sharp. Tbe pool advanced both for futures and spots and buying orders were received from that market, but tbe speculation was in the main of a local nature. Shorts covered and assisted the rise. There was a reaction at one time, but prices rallied subsequently and advanced again. Silver declined. f at this had litt e influence. Reports of damage to the crop in India contributed to strengthen the tone. . DESPERADOES KILLED Zee fight With a Fosse in Indian Terri , tory..

The Campaigning Beooid el the Day A Inula Slioe ot Wiieonaia Included Hatha- ' Lutio Uoeptioas at All Point He Will Speak To-day la WUoon Ut and the Northern Fart of Miohigan. By Telegraph to the Morning Star. ' St. Cloud. Minn., October' 13. Bright, sanshiny weather, after two days' rest, made William J. Bryan feel in fine fettle when he started out campaigning this morning.- His special car, "Idler,1 left Minneapolis at -8 o'clock behind a fast locomotive. Mr. Bryan's party con sisted of Mr. and Mrs. Bryan, Congress man Charles A. Towne, who isacandl date for re-election on the fusion ticket; ex-Cougressman J. K. Williams, of Illi nois; John W. Tomlmson, of Alabama; J. G. Hayter, candidate for the Legisla ture, and Mrs. Havter andT.T. Hudson. Mr. Brian's objective point to-dav is Daluth, and the route taken from Min neapolis for that place was the Northern Pacific Anoka was the first atop. It was reached shortly afier.9 o'clock. Sev eral hundred peop'e there heard a little speech from the candidate. Cheers for McKinley were' pretty fre qaent at Ek River, the next halting place. They came from a group of men gathered on the edge of the crowd. 1$ became a battle for Jung supremacy be tween the Bryanites and McKinleyites, and the contest had not been decided when the train drew oat. A smaller crowd greeted Mr. Bryan at uigUKt Fur coats that were so plentiful in the crowds addressed by Mr. Bryan m North Dakota, South Dakota and parts of this State last week were not to be seen in tbe audience of 5.000 people ad dressed by the Democratic candidate at St Cloud, the little lumbering center on the banks of the Mississippi. They were not needed, for tbe sun shone strong and bright, and not a cloud was in tbe sky.'- Mr. and Mrs. Bryan..' with their travelling; party, were taken into the town park, where the people were gath ered. The candidate was received with enthusiasm when Mr. W. P. Reiner, one of the delegates to the Chicago conven tion, introduced him. Mr. Bryan spoke of the importance of the money que tion, and said that this campaign had witnessed such a revolution in politics as had not been seen since the years iust preceding the war. He continued: "I think Prince Bis marck a year aeo gave expression to a very important sentiment. Speaking to tbe farmers of Germany, he said: 'The farmers must stand together and protect themselves from the drones of society, who produce nothing but laws.' You divide society into two classes. Oa the one side pot the producer of wealth, and on tbe other side put tbe non-producer, and you will find that the non-producer produces more law in this country than ths producers of wealth.. (Applause. There is such a thing as a legislative plow. The legislative piow turns deeper, turns out more ground, is operated at less expense, and raises crops less in jured by floods and drought than any other plow that was ever put into tbe ground. (Laughter.) Just as long as tbe financiers are allowed to run tbe legislative plow while you keep at work following tbe old moid-board, you win never meet them at the Summer resorts. "My friends, the success of the Chica go ticket doeasaSSo pi- en w from .;.-r - . nancial policy .oryan was inter- .' the crowd who shout , -iiuruu tor England.' Mr. Bryan quickly added: "There's the first Re publican that I have seen this morning. (Liughter and a voice : Let ns have a magnifying glass so we can find him.") " Well. I am elad that there are a lew of them left, because you know that is a curiosity that must always be satisfied and tbe men who stand on the Republi can platform are getting to be so few tbat.tbey will draw a high price when thev are wanted for tbe museum. (Laughter and cheers). ... Mr. Bryan spoke of the necessity of having a Congress that would send a free silver bill to the President.and com mended Congressman Towne as being a1 safe man to send to Conerets. Congressman Towne followed Mr. Bryan briefly. Oa the conclusion of bis speech the whole party returned to the special train, which pulled out at 11.05. The stop in St. Cloud lasted fifty min utes. Fifteen more were spent by Mr. Bryan at Little . Falls. It was exactly noon when the train came to a stand still a hundred feet from a temporary stand, about which a thousand people and cumeons vehicles were gathered. Judge Shaw a local attorney, presented Mr. Bryan, who Spoke until fcwarning whistle blew from the locomotive.- Mr. Bryan said : "Some time I find persons who ate in tbe condition of a gentleman down in Nebraska. A lady down there said she bad a brother who was a gold man without any gold. You talk to a Republican- about bimetallism and be will tell you be is iust as good a bimetallist as anybody ; but you look at the color of the paper tbey print their badge on, and you will find that it is yellow. (Laughter.) When you find a man who talks about loving both metals and votes for the platform adopted at St. Louis' vou will find a man whose yellow comes out oa all occasions. But most of them are in the condition of the gold man in Nebraska. This lady said she could understand bow a man could be a gold man, if he had gold, but . she could only pity the man who was a gold man when he did not have any. Dtjluth. Minn., October 18. Five stops were made by the Brvan special between Little Falls and Daluth, and five more speeches were added to tbe several hundred the Democratic candi date has made in the campaign.- For tbe sizes of tbe places where the train baited, the crowds that turned out to see Mr. Brvan were of fair proportions. That at Staples numbered 800; at Brainerd. 2,000: at Aiken, 500; Carleton, 500, and West Superior. 1,000. No stop was made at Motley, but the train was slowed down to enable about a hundred oeoole at the station there to seethe nominee -. and Mrs. Bryan. 1 McKinley badges of yellow ribbon were noticeable at several places, particularly so at Brain erd, and Mr. Bryan made some com ments on their use. i do not know what arguments are most familiarly ad vanced here against free coinage," he said. ("Coercion" shouted tome one.) "I waa going to say that coercion was tbe argument that is being resorted to now by our Republican friends more than any other argument." Continued the nominee: ,"But here is one advantage about the voting in the States where they have the Australian ballot, ' and that is that while a man wears a badge in order to save his em' ployment be has a right to use his vote in order to save bis country. I do not find it in my heart to criticise tbe man who wears the Republican badge under com pulsion. These are hard times, and they will be harder than this if tbe gold stand ard continues, and I do not wonder that the man who has a job does not like to risk having tbe job taken away from bim because he insists upon being an Ameri can citizen. (Applause.) But I do re joice that the laboring jmen of this coun try were instrumental in , getting an Australian ballot ! to protect them in just such a crisis as we are passing through. The Australian ballot is our salvation in this campaign. Without it we could hardly hope for victory- The Australian ballot is tbe protection of tbe American workiogmea and tyranny alts outside while be goes in to vote. Same one has said that a man wears the Republican badge to save his employ ment he votes for free sliver to make his job worth saving. West Superior, Wis., turned out the biggest crowd of the day. It numbered in tbe neighborhood ol ten tbousana people, and the throng was so thick about the stand from which Mr. Bryan spoke that tbe greatest physical effort on the part ol the ponce was necessary to get the candidate and bis wife through. While Mr. Bryan was speak ing somebody said: -now about Sickles?" referring to Gen. Daniel Sickles, of New York, who bolted the Tammany endorsement of Bryan and Sewall and recently made a speech at Duluth in favor of McKinley. "For every old soldier we lose," responded Mr. Bryan, "we gain a dozen. (Cheers from the crowd followed.) - Thirteen speeches and 200 miles of round-about travel throughout Minne sota, with a little slice of Wisconsin in cluded, was W. J. Bryan's campaining re cord of to-day. Anoka. Elk River at Big Lake, St. Cloud, Rices, Littlepalls. Staples, Brain erd, Arlken, Carlton and West Superior were tbe places where the nominee and party stopped lone enough to enable him to make addresses. - To-morrow will be devoted .by Bryan to campngning in Wisconsin and the Northern Peninsula of Michigan.

Baja Wow j cllat W. IX Howell. Perhaps one reason why people dislike the notion of human brotherhood so muoh Is beeause the ties of kindred are often made so Irksome. Society holds you to ao- count for your brother's behavior and even for Ills character, as U you bad In rented it, or at least favored It, and his children can bring your children to shame by their mlaoonduct, though they may never have seen one another. It Is hardly enough, on the other hand, that you receive a sort of reflected glory from your brother's exoellence or celebrity; you are then expeoted to live up to him and that may be another hardship U you have not his talent or temperament. You feel that you are fitly answerable for your son, In a measure, though his great-grandfather on the other side, If he oonld be got at, might sometimes be much more justly made to suffer; but you do not feel -that you are fitly answerable for your brother and you feel that it is cruel of society to hold you so. If he is stupid or tiresome, people will shrink from you as if you partook of his character because you partake of his origin. Often you do partake of his character. Brothers are of ten aiiKe, out orten tney are intensely un like in' tastes, batjlts, manners, disposi tions, temperaments. Often you shall be truly tbe brother of a man whom you have met rather late in life and whom you like ; because he is of kindred nature, while in your heart you may fail to like the brother who is merely of kindred origin. Yet it one allowed the brother of one's blood to come to want or disgrace, society would bold one infamous. If it were the brother of one's souh society would have nothing to say. W.
