Though the Foreign Office professes to be satisfied with the full ; and prompt acceptance by the Pekintr government of the uilimatuzn forwarded to it by the British govern ment demanding the degradation of Liu Piag Chine. Viceroy of Sze-Chuen, for his connection with the Sze-Chuen riots, the trouble growing out of the overt hostility of the Chinese to British subjects is not over. Tbe movements of the British squadron in the Yang-Tse-Kiang show that the tension in the relations between Great Britain and China has hardly been lessened by the punishment of Li a Ping Chang. Vice Admiral Buller, ta stead of ceasing to demonstrate the pressure that is being brought to bear on the Peking govern ment, keeps under orders the British warships at every point where they were stationed before the Tsung-Li-Y&men apparently conceded tbe Brit ish demands. The warship JEotus has gone to Wu Chang, where Vice Admiral Bailer is -charged to present to Chang Chen Tung, the Viceroy, the demands relative to the Inquiry into the Ku cheng massacre. Chang Cheh Tung is a notorious hater of foreigners and Wu Chang is the centre of the production of tbe pamphlets and placards inciting the populace to the murder of Europe ans. No overt act of hostility that would justify Great Britain in demand ing his dismissal from office can be trac ed to him, despite his known antipathy to foreigners. The exact nature of the demands that will be presented to him has not transpired. A strong feature of Vice Admiral Buller's mission is that he is directed to deliver the British dis patches directly to Chang Cheh Tung, instead of negotiating through Peking ltis expected by the Foreign Office that the Viceroy will concede the de mands. Prime Minister Salisbury has directed Sir Nicholas O'Connor, the British minister to China, to expedite "his re turn to London. Sir Nicholas will go to St. Petersburg as ambassador in room of Sir F. C. Lascelles. He will be in London in November, when a new minister to China will be appointed. It is rumored in diplomatic circles that Sir Julian Pauncefote, British am bassador to-the United States, will suc ceed Lord Dufferin as ambassador to France. Sir Julian's preference for Washington over some of the better paid European posts is not concealed, but if he should be offered the blue rib bon of the British diplomatic service he would, it is said, be certain to ac cept it. Inquiries made in Mincing Lane to day elicited the information that France is now practically out of the sugar market, exporting little or no sugar. This is due. it is said, to a "cor ner" in beet sugar. The absence of the French product has had a sympa thetic action on the markets and has been a factor in raising the price to 11 shillings per hundred weight, an ad vance of Is 6d within a few weeks. A lar ger "corner" than that with the French syndicate was, it is supposed, recently attempted. A great insurance company of London was approached with a pro position that they insure suear in dif ferent parts of tbe world to the value of '1,000,000. This company canvassed other conrpanies with a view of getting them to cover parts of the risk. In quiries, however, rendered doubtful what quantities of susrar had been actually purchased and a question arose as to whether speculators meant to operate on this insurance. The pro posal, therefore, fell through but it caused much talk in the sugar market. THE KCOUIS IN THE WALLER CASE. A Copy Will Doubtless be Handed Ambaa ' ft ad or East in as Soon as Printed A Wit ness for Waller. Washington, Oct. 5. Renewed in terest in the Waller case was aroused to-day by the receipt of a telegram from Ambassador Eustis announcing that the record and accompanying, docu ments had been received at the Foreign Office in Paris and were being trans lated. Although Mr. Eustis does not say so in his dispatch, the pre3umptiou is that the French government, in ac cordance with its promise, will deliver a copy to Mr. Eustis as soon as the translation is completed. The ship upon which this alleged record arrived reached Marseilles, September 22nd, and this government expected the de livery of the same into Mr. Eustis' hands before this. An important wit ness on the part of Mr. Waller arrived in New York yesterday in the person of Mr. E. G. Woodford, an American citi zen who was at Tamatave at the time of the Waller trial, and who heard the proceeding and read the alleged in criminating letters. Mr. Woodford comes direct from Tamatave and is the man who supplied the funds through which Mrs. Waller and family reached France. He is thoroughly con versa nt with the facts and wiH come to Washington next week for a conference with Secretary Olney. GENERAL MILES IN WASHINGTON. After a Visit to the War Department H Asaomea Command of the United State Army. Washington, Oct. 5. General Nelson A. Miles, accompanied by his wife, Cap tain Michler, his aide-de-camp, and Colonel B. Beck, assistant adjutant general, reached Washington shortly before 2 o'clock to-day. Adjutant Gen eral Ruggles met the party at the sta tion and accompanied them to the Ar lington Hotel, where Mrs. Miles was left. The officers were then driven to the War Department. General Miles had a few minutes talk with Secretary Lamont, after which he issued the fol lowing general orders No. 54: "Headquarters of the Army, 1 "Washington-, Oct. 5th, 1895. f "By direction of the President, the ifjfcdersigned hereby assumes command or the army of the United States. "Nelson A. Miles, "Major General." General Miles has made rio arrange ments for receiving the armyofficers on duty in Washington, but it is under stood that they will pay their respects to him on Monday. His order announc ing his aides-de-camp has not yet been prepared. Total Visible Sopply of Cotton. New York, Oct. 5. The total visible supply of cotton for the world is 2.445, 488 bales, of which 2,190,290 are Ameri can, against 2,211,533 bales and 1,844,438 bales respectively last year.

Mrs. Phoebe Thomas, of Junction Ctty, 111., was told by her doctors she bad con sumption and that there was no hope for her, but two bottles of Dr. King's New Dis covery completely cured her and she says it saved her life. Mr. Thomas Eggera, 16 Florida street, Sas Francisco, suffered from a dreadful oold, approaching consumption, tried without result everything else then bought one bottle of Dr. King's New Dis covery and in two weeks was cured.

Xaecbl, Commissioner Qeaeral of Earepe, Hakes") Speech or M ach latere!. 'AtxastaT Ga., Oct. 5. The foreign section of the exposition was formally opened to-day at the Manufactures and Liberal Art Building by Mr. A-Macehi. commissioner for Europe. ,The invita tion had been issued to the director and officers of the exposition and other a iguitaries, ana a large crowd assem bled to 'witness the exercise. Vice President Hemphill, chairman of the committee on ceremonies, opened the exercises by introducing Commissioner General Mace hi. who delivered a speech of great interest. He said that only seven months ago he began the work is London. At once he sent special com missioners to each of the . Important countries of. Europe. At tbe same time a-royal commission representing the ex position in Tasmania; another commis sion representing the exhibit at Bor deax, and another representing tbe Am sterdam Exposition, all well supplied with funds, were canvassing Europe for exhibits. He began work, for the Cot ton States and International Exposition and secured nearly ten times as many exhibits as the other three put together. Tbe display itself shows the exhibits to be of tbe highest character. "To-day," said he, "everybody on the face of the globe knows where Atlanta is. The name of Atlanta has been printed in large letters in every newspaper in the world and in every language known. All the world has turned its eyes on At lanta, and your growing-city and State have been tbe subject of discussion at millions of firesides. You have done in a few months what it has taken other citizens years to achieve. This exposi tion will mark the mile-stone of prog ress in this State. We have here peo ple from all parts of the world, living on the best terms, and this exposition will be the means of tightening the bonds of friendship among the people of both hemispheres. This is the most gratify ing result which coulu be desired." Mr. Macchi then formally presented the foreign exhibits to the directors general. Mr. Collier, the president and director general, responded in a brief but happy speech. Among other things he said, after calling attention to the international character of the display: "There is no just idea of the progress of the world which does not, in grati tude and in honor, recognize the fact that the civilization which has glorified this hemisphere was brought from the other, and while we believe that a larger and better destiny of man has been re vealed here, we still turn to the antique homes of our ancestors and find a light and elevation in the work of our dis tant kindred. They have brought to us beauteous specimens of their craft and have tempered in some degree the insu lar opinion that the mind and hand of man are now here producing results comparable to those which they reveal to us under our own clime. They have brought a closer friendship and kindled kindlier feeling between nations, which though far apart, are working together for a common aim." Mr. Collier then formally accepted the European exhibits. Commissioner General Macchi con ducted the party through the French section, where a speech was delivered by Mr. Saulay, the French special agent designated by his government to repre sent the exhibits by that country. Mr. Saulay said that the French govern ment had given its moral support to the exposition and had officially recognized it by sending a consul general to attend the opening exercises and to report on the exposition. A collation followed the exercises. A CRAZY ENGINEER. He Got Mixed in His Order and Paid No Attention to the Conductor's Mgnals A Collision, Bat the Conductor Saved the Car. Atlanta, Ga., Oct. 5. Alex. Atkins, an engineer on the Atlanta & West Point Railroad, was killed in a collision this morning one mile below Red Oak. Atkins was on the New York & New Orleans fast mail, which left here at 6 o'clock this morning, fifteen minutes late. At East Point he received orders to pass a north-bound passenger train at Red Oak. Instead of stopping at the station he ran through at forty miles aa hour. Conductor Law signalled the engineer to-stop but Atkins paid no at tention to the bell. Then Law ran through the train and threw a piece of coal over the tender to attract the engineer's attention. Still Atkins kept on. Law, who had signed the orders at East Point, then cuV-the cars loose from the tender. The engine sped on and 200 yards further crashed into the approaching local train. The automatic brakes on the fast mail stopped the detached train and the passengers escaped. Engineer McDade, of the north-bound train, reversed his engine and jumped. His fireman and the fireman of the south-bound train also jumped. Atkins stuck to his engine and was terribly crushed. He&was not unconscious at first though and begged the train men who went to work to rescue him to give him something to relieve hi agony. He died three hours later. A postal clerk named Boyd on the north-bound train was badly injured but will re cover. It is presumed that Atkins got mixed on his orders, as he had first re ceived his instructions to pass the north bound train several miles below Red Oak. THE PASTE UK FUNERAL. The Last Bad Services Over the Remains of the Great Scientist Held In the Notre Dame Cathedral. Paris, Oct. 5. The funeral services over the body of Prof. Louis Pasteur, the famous chemist and scientisi, took place in the Cathedral of Notre Dame this afternoon. The coffin was re moved from the Pasteur Institute and placed upon the funeral car. The car was drawn pines were by six horses, whose trap- decorated with mourning tri-colored drapery. The plumes and procession was formed in front of the Institute and marched te the cathedral. The foneral car was-esoorted by a bat talion of the Garde Republicaine. The members of the Pasteur family were immediately behind the hearse, and were followed by the State dignitaries and deputations from the learned socie ties. The weather was clear and bright, but there were fewer people in the procession and forming tbe crowd of spectators than is usual upon the oc casion of a national funeral. The Quartier Latin was lined with troops. Upon the arrival of the procession at the cathedral, tbe coffin was removed from the hearse and placed beneath the catafalque which had been erected for the occasion, when the services began. President Faure arrived at noon and remained throughout the services, at the close of which all of the troops com posing the Paris garrison marched past tbe coffin, which had been removed from the interior of the placed temporarily In a of the building. After the troops had tbe body the coffin was cathedral and space in front ' marched past placed in the cathedral vault in the presence of the family of the deceased scientist. The Reserve Galas from Soathern and Western Points. Washington, Oct. 5. The Treasury golcLreserve to-day is 293,006,886, a gain over yesterday of $208,097. The gain was made entirely from Southern and Western points. At East Liverpool. O., last Wednes day the aix-year-old son of Andrew Vandyn was burned at the stake by five companions and so badly injured that he eannot recover. Some men happen ed to see tbe performance and tried to rescue him, but h s clothes had taken fire and he was badly burned, and the physicians say it is impossible for him to live. A Wild West show exhibited there about a month ago and since that time the boys of the town have been playing Indian. . , ORIOLES DIJJNT PXA.Y AXITTUE BIT. 11 Cleveland Administered the Hon Severe Drobbia; Yet of the Tempi Cup Berlee. Cijbvexakd, O.. Oct. 5.Cleveland ad ministered the most severe drubbing to Baltimore to-day tbat tbe 'rem pie Cup series baseen. Young was a complete puzzle to Han Ion s men, and they laced him like defeated men from the first inning. The only chance, the pennant- winners bad to score was in tse eigntn inning when they bunched three- sin gles and Keeler crossed the? plate. Tebeau's men hit - McMahon about when they pleased. Six of their seven runs were earned. Both team put up x magnificent fielding - . game McKean and Kelly -made the only errors, and- they were both excus able ones. Kelly's was a wild throw to the plate from center field, on which Young scored. McKean fum bled a hot grounder. The crowd num bered nearly 15,000. There were more people on the grounds than in the stands and a two-base hit ground rule was made. This robbed Blake of a home run hit in the seventh. The ball went to centre-field fence. Hits by Burkett, Childs, McAleer and Pat Tebeau, and a stolen base by McAleer, netted three runs for Cleveland in the first. They made three more in tbe seventh on doubles by Blake and Childs, singles by McGarr and Young, and a sacrifice by Burkett. Doubles by Zim- mer and McGarr scored the laat run in the eighth. During tbe game a diamond stud valued at $200-was presented to McKean and a handsome bird gun and case to Cuppy. They were the gifts of local admirers. The Baltimore club leaves for home to-night. The CI evelands leave for Bal timore Sunday. Although the crowd was the largest that ever attended a ball game in this city, there was no rowdyism and the Baltimore players got as fair treatment as the Cleveland men. The reports that Baltimore players were assaulted at tbe first two games are absolutely untrue. Score: Cleveland 8 0 0 0 0 0 8 1 7 Baltimore. 00000001 01 Base hita Cleveland. 18; Baltimore, 7.

Concord, Oct. 5. John Bost, one of the aged victims of the recent boiler explosion at Safrit's Mill, died last night of his injuries. No hope was en tertained for his recovery from the time of the accident. Mr. Jackson Sa- frit is doing well, and is able to walk about his premises. Master Louis Brown met with a seri ous accident Friday morning, while riding at a rapid rate on his bicycle on West Corbin street, going to his father s gin. Me met a wagon ana a wooct chopper, who wasjearrying an axe upon his shoulder. In endeavoring to pass between the two he accidentally struck the colored man, and at the same time the axe blade struck Louis on the fore head, across tie nose, severing the bone. The gash is an urgly one, and the boy is a great sufferer. Quarterly conference will be held to morrow at Central Methodist Episcopal church, -Rev. J. R. Scroggs presiding. Communion will be administered at the Presbyterian church. Rev. Dr. Rumple, of Salisbury, will assist Rev. Mr. Alexander. HE GAVE A WORTHLESS CHECK. Profs. Erwin and Dagger May Publish a Joint Booh of Poems. Special to the Observer. Lenoir, Oct. 5. On last Saturday a cadaverous-looking, but well-dressed fellow, apparently 30 years old, walked into town and stopped at the Clarke House for Sunday. He gave his name as R. E. Keller, and his tale was that he was walking, on a wager, from Chicago to New York, his route calling for Asheville, Danville, Va., etc On Mon day he paid his board bill with his own check on the lsank cf the Metropolis, New York. This now proves to be a worthless piece of paper and the fellow a rigrit clever "oeaa-oeat. Mr. William Chaucer Erwin, the bright editor of the Morganton "Herald, passed through Lenoir to-day returning from the Balsam Uroves of the Grand father. The impression prevails in some quarters that he and Mr. Dugger will soon publish jointly a book of their poems, the title of which has not yet been made public. MARKETING COTTON RAPIDLY. Union Will Be Through In Two Weeks Forest Eire Still Burning. Special to the Observer Monroe, Oct. 5. This afternoon Ed. Campbell, a young colored man from Max ton, was arrested for an assault with attempt. In default of $200 bond he went to jail. He had on his person a pistol, razor and a table fork. He says he is not guilty. The forest fire west of here was still burning this afternoon and was making its way down the old Rocky River road. Cotton receipts-here to-day 125 bales; highest price paid, 8:80; receipts at Waxhaw, 102 bales; price same as here. The platform at that place is said to be loaded with cotton. According to re ports the great bulk of cotton in this county will have been marketed within two weeks from now. Rev. R. Boyd is holding nightly meet ings in the court house.

The fact was noted some time ago that there was no mili tary post in North Carolina and li was proposed to ask that one be established in Raleigh. Letters relating to it have passed between Governor Carr and the authorities at Washington. Mr. Joe Pogue, of the chamber of commerce, has these letters and at the meeting of the chamber on Tuesday, the 8th. the proposed plan will be discussed. It is said that the construction of the post here would cost $300,000, but it would turn loose in the city annually . abont $150,000. It is proposed to have, every night d erring the fair,' addresses on agricul ture by prominent speakers. President Carr is sending out 400 letters to promi nent men asking their attendance at the fair. He will leave no stone un turned to make the fair a perfect suc cess. The Southern Railway has begun ballasting the track between Greens boro and Selma. la January it will be gin laying the 90 pound to the yard heavy rails. John Gowan, colored, from ttelds- ville, was released from the peniten tiary yesterday. He had served a term of four years for stealing two bushels of wheat, of which he said he was inno cent. Mr. J. N. Meacham, who as city edi tor of the Wilmington Dispatch, was sued for libel by Mayor Flshblate, is in the city. He hopes to get work here so as to be nearer his two children, who are in Warren ton. The weekly cotton reports show re ceipts from September 1st to yesterday to be 2,733 bales, against 6,318 bales for same time last year. Receipts for the week, 1,519 bales; last year, 1,642. ibe tobacco market here shows en couraging prospects better than ever before. The market has drawn buyers from rival markets. The action of. the Episcopal General Convention upon the proposed change of the name Protestant Episcopal Church to Holy Catholic Church will be anxiously awaited. Bishop Cheshire, of the western Diocese of our State, does not favor the change. How- Bishop Watson, of the eastern Diocese, stands, your correspondent does not know. The late Bishop Atkinson favored it. Kitty Hawk, a Raleigh horse, four years old, won the 2:30 race at the Lynchburg, Va., fair Thursday. Her best time was 2:29i. In spite of the fusion Legislature re fusing to vote an appropriation for the State exhibit at Atlanta, North Caro lina, through the railroads, assisted by State Geologist Holmes, has a magnifi cent display. The State Museum fur nished much towards the exhibit. It is chiefly a forestry exhibit. Judge Coble has gone heme to take a rest. He will reutrn on the 21st when he will hold the civil term of the court. At this term will come up several sen sational cases, among them being the Hawkins will case, and the suit of Kitchin and the nine newly-appointed directors of the penitentiary Kitchin for the place of Leazar. It will be remembered that this new board were shut put by the old board at its annual meeting last spring. Day. the attorney for Kitchin, says he will not rest until Leazar is ousted, but from present appearances he will be restless for some time. Mr. E. cK. Goodwin, superintendent of the Deaf-Mute Institution at Mor ganton, is here. He says he has 150 pupils already enrolled, with more ap plications. There are accommodations for 190. The steamer Commodore held for libel at Wilmington, has been ordered released by the United States Attorney General. Her cargo is to be held. A very bullish influence. The Texas Commissioner Estimates Not Over 1,500,000 Bales for That State Cotton Goods High and Closely Held at Fall River. Special to the Observer. New York, Oct. 5. One of the bull ish influences here to-day was a tele gram received from New Orleans read ing as follows: "The Commissioner of Agriculture of Texas officially an nounces from Austin that since his last circular a radical change has occurred in the crop, showing a greatly dimin ished production, due to long-continued drought, ravagesof boll and leaf worms, and that it is his duty to state that he seriously doubts if Texas will make 1,500.000 bales, and that the total crop is not likely to exceed 6,000,000." Our Fall River telegram of to day was as follows: "Sales of goods tre mendous, being 491,000 pieces for the week. Market firm. Stock reduced 30,000 to 96,000." A letter from Fall River of yesterday reads as follows: "Print cloth market active and strong, 3 bid for spot for any delivery up to next July. We bid that price to-day for contracts up to next October but could not find a seller. Northern spin ners have taken to date since Septem ber 1st 100,344 bales against 143,404 last year, which indicates that they, are losing no time in getting hold of as much of this crop at present prices as they can secure, fearing a further ad vance. Their takings for the week ending yesterday were 36,385 against 36,611 last year. The indications seem to be more favorable for a continued large and active demand at advancing prices."

On tbe streets Friday some one intro duced me to & tall-looking man by the name of Graham. I had never met the man before. The first word he said was an insult, but I thought he was funning and took it as such. He grew worse with his insults until I walked away and left him. He had abused me very much, but I attributed it all to the fact that he was under the influence of whis key. I learned afterward that a man by the name of Campbell from the county had been in the community of "Crook" Graham, and by some means the tall man had formed a distaste for Campbell. I left Charlotte Wednesday and went into that vicinity, and spent the night with a clever gentleman by the name of Mr. Mann, who will explain further if necessary, i Respectfully, J. K.

Cranford, children of Mr. M. W. Cranford, were out driv ing, their horse became unmanageable and ran away, tearing up a new buggy and badly frightening the occupants. George's arm was hurt but no serious damage was done save to the buggy. Cotton has been coming in pretty freely this week. Highest price paid was 9 cents. The staple of cotton is said to be very long this year. Some farmers around here didn't plant any cotton at all this year. Mr. C. E. Bost planted broom corn instead. Mr. j. w. crown, of Mooresviiie, has the contract to build Bethel church and expects to commence work next Mon day. The building is to be 40x60 feet. Tbe congregation have made the brick and they are of excellent quality. Everybody is complaining of the dust. Prosperity In the East. Rocky Mount Argonaut. Taking our section as a criterion of the prosperity of the whole State we are safe in the assertion that times were never better or money more plentiful. With cotton at 9 cents, tobacco about 15 cents per pound and our corn, peanut "and other crops abundant, what more more can be asked from the bountiful Father of all? An Uncontrollable Fire Bnrnlng in Cin cinnati. Cincinnati, O., Oct. 5. A fire started in the corn warehouse of the old stock yards late this afternoon and a double alarm was turned in. Thousands of bushels of corn were burned. There was no water at hand and everything in the immediate vicinity is at the mercy of the flames. At C o'clock to night the fire is still raging.

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL. Cotton Makes Another Decline, Losing 3 Points Yesterday. Special by Private Wire to Harrison Watts. Nsw York. Oct. 6 Live: pool declined 8-eid on futures and 1-lttd. on spot, with sales of 8,003 bales, closing steady. The Fi nancial Chronicle advices show that tbe weather throughout tie Bout a during tbe past veet nas Deen ravoraoie tor cotton picking and marketing. There were light trosts in some sections eariy in toe wee a, but no damage was caused. Bolls are open ing rapidly everywheie. Hill, Konptaine (tCo's. crop report just published states: "Cotton all open Id tbe fields and the pick ing season will be tbe shortest in the his tory of coton raising." The Commissioner of Agriculture of Texas estimates tbat the crop in mat state win oe ou per cent, less than last year' crop Onr market opned down about 7 points (8 B5 for January), then advanced to 9 01, decile ed to 8 06 and again advanced toward tbe close, reaching 9 02, being a net decline of only points. Trad ing was quiet with apparently a strong un dertone, bat the heavy receipts, the Kaffir troubles i which may seriously affect the Liverpool market i and tha disinclination of English spinners to buy at present prices are discouraging to the bulls. Further more, despite the probability that the heavy rece'pts are fully accounted for by the tempting firlce being irresistible to plant ers, tbe I'.t'jre may snow mat tae yield nas Deen unaeresuinaiea. uur inioraiuuon in tbe past has led us to believe tbat ther would probably not be mora than 7.000.000 bales, but recent private advices from men in various parts of thu Bouth state that this estimate will prove too low and that there may be fully .7.500.0SX) to 7,750.000, and the experience of these men is such as to be en titled to consideration, with a crop of 7,500,000 bales we do dot feel tbat wa can en courage purcnaes anove a, ana in view ot Uie rapid and excited advance a break of per pound would not appear unlikely The visible supply now is 2.415.493 against i.ill.f 28 last Tear and 2 8t.w in 1M3 and 2,005 4U7 in 1893; amount in sight since Sep tember 1st is 737,914 against 937,8t.

Oct. 6 The stock market Ob-day wa supported In some directions by covering of shorts, as the excitement over mining shaies in London appeared to suf fer abatement. The dealings remained pro fessional and tbe temper of speculation was somewhat unsettled by fear of a Kaffir col lapse abroad. Tbe weak f-ature of Indus trials was American Tobacco, which lost 1. Chicago Gas was Irregular, but finally ektablisbed a substantial gain. Sugar ruled fractionally above last night's close. Ten nessee Coal and Iron was unsettled , but lit tle changed at the end.

Nsw Yokk News Bureau. Wheat Close Weak at 59 1-2 Cent The Fluctuations for the Week. CHtOAOO, Oct. 5 About the same condi tions govern the market as we expressed in our letter last Saturday. The arguments that were set fortb by tbe bears tbat free marketing of spring wheat would tend to farther depress prices and render bolder of winter wheat unable to compete with the Northwest, except at a loss, seems apparent at the close of the week. Monday the mar ket was strong, December advancing to Tbe rise was taken advantage of by bolder of both speculative and cash commodities. Receipts previously bad began to show a falllng-ofl inconsequence of tbe low prices prevailing, but tbe advance caused free marketing of both winter aod spring wheat, and prospect tbat receipt next week, es pecially of the former, which have hereto fore been rcnnlng so light will show an in crease weakened tbe altuaticn and to-day prloea were under 60 Tbe buying ot spring wheat has been extremely heavy. Eie-ators and millers bave had their representative at the principal point a, but as this will mean large receipt and a plling-up of sop plies at tbe accumulation centre the ques tion of easb sales is overshadowed and will continne so nntil tbe transfer from first hand to elevator Is completed. Yet the consumptive demand l large. There 1 a big demand for flour and undoubtedly large amount ot wheat will drop 'out of sight on this account. Just at present the trade 1 exercising caution. While the sit uation. In view of tbe above facts, now 1 bearish, operators are not lostog sight of the fact tbat there are many bullish fea ture, which, when brought to the surface and utilised for the general outside public, Investor and capitalists, may make a radi cal change la price. This cause hesitancy to sell, except on the bulges, and create a fair demand on tbe breaks. Ws ean only add that at present receipts continue to be the dominating factor, and a indications point to aa inarease prices are likely to be governed accordingly ; yet on the break In the aOs tbere will undoubtedly be fresh buy ing again. Around the opening to-day short and a lew commission bouses were buyers, which, in the abseneev of offering, cansed aa advance of t. There wa notn tng in tbe news, however, to warrant , this. At 60t tbere wa a disposition to cell, which weakened the market and, caused early buyer to torn sellers. At C- there wa Just enough support to steady r rices temporarily, when the market wa offered down to GH. closing weak at about tbe lowest point of tbe day. There he beeo very little doing in corn and oat the past week.
