Mioacapotis Market. Keourd. While wheat feeding In the place of oom feodinf etlll holds on with no apparent abatement, it may not continue duriDf the full crop seaaon. The yield of com ta not eo much below the yield of other years, with the economies now being practiced in Its use, as to justify expecta41on of the high prices that have been.paid this fall tb continue throughout the year. Corn feeding may be conoerved much more than the wheat con-^^-....^iumpllon for bread, for there are so _many, other things that can take the place of com that It will probably be found before the crop year is ended thait a greater proportion of old corn will ift carried forward to the last of the sea•oa than Is usual. That has been found true of other years when the corn crop Was short, and never before wa.s there greater economy practiced in the feeding of corn than practiced so far this Reason. It Is only the great abumlance tliat can keep wheat down to Us present g :es, and If It would be fed until aner crop is harvested at the rate It has n fed for the past lew weeks the contptlon would be so great In this country as to create higher prices, which would stop the enormous consumption before the end of the season, \vhen ether cereals were short and prices adVaaced so unnaturally as compaicd with the prices of other grains, in nearly all cases the top prices were reached near tiie first, for when It Is found that the Stocks are decreasing much less rapidly than had been expected speculative nolalags b€SM>me heavy In the hands of dealers aad the otutt is thrown upon the market, causing decline, until the decline brings prices b^low relative \alue8 for other grams that went Into consumption In the place of these. With corn getting plentiful toward the end, there 18 no reason to suppose the price will remain above the price of wheat or even j near It. In that case wheat feeding will ' B«tura21y be discontinued. **B«orlsh” On Southern Stocks.

Wall Street Dally News.

The •‘bullish" enthusiasm on Southern tailway stocks is not as pronounced as it was; in fact It can fairly be said that it to petering out, and in its place a congervative. “bearish” sentiment seems to obtain. This Is due to the low price of cotton,, and the prospects that it is bound to affect the tonnage of the cotton carrying roads. Aside from the fact (Smt the "hold your cotton” movement in die South is likely to receive consld•L'able Impetus within the next thirty iMys, thus restricting shlpmenis, is the fiolnt that there Is no more money for the planter in 5-cent cotton than there is In' 50-cent wheat for the farmer. If, therefore, the low price of wheat is a *‘bear" point on the Granger stocks, why ■houldn't the low price of cotton be the Rwme on the Southern railroad stocks? There to no doubt but tiiat this Is the way shrewd operators are looking at tnc matter. ’

Gold and the Csar. Boston Commercial Bulletin. It was characteristic of the market gf this week that while the coal stocks w«|e, declining with such rapidity the geoisral list remained unshaken. A week ago it had been expected that two luain factors would dominate the market; the question of gold exports and thw condition of the Cxar. But the sterling market acted strangely, Notwlth•ta.|dlng predictions to the contrary, no S kf was engaged for export during the ■t half of the week; toward the close tlto story began to circulate that no gold would go out. This left the sterling S rather unsettled. As for tlie n situation, the foreign markets nto a state of suspened animation; This was attributed to doubt as to Whtjt would really happen, ilnanclally or poliiically, if the Czar should die. dobblng aad Cuiuuilsalon Notes. The Jobbing trade for the week opens dull, but hopeful. Who.lcsalers are con. fidentiy looking for cooler weather to arrive soon, which will give to trade the tong desired Impulse. Tfie opening of a new dressed meat establishment has already had the effect »f jetimulating buyers, and there Is an encotiraging demand for the better qualities of beef. The poultry trade In New York, from telegrams received, appears to be going from bad to worse. The market continues greatly overstocked, l.ast week 7,141 packages of dressed poultry were received, while for the corresponding WMk of 1893 only 5,841 packages went to tbat market. A like state of affairs prevails In Boston. Shippers here have reduced prices to correspond w^th the low gates how ruling East. CITY WU0LES.4L.E QtOT.lTlO.NS.

In a row at Fred Welland’s saloon, 20 Prospect street, at 2 o’clock this afterr.con, Frank Walters, a colored man, shot William Burkinan, the bartender,

losses w^e made 1 The victim is probably fatally Injured.

Walters lives south of the Belt railroad and work.s for one of the asphalt companies. He and George Kinney, formerly a guard at the workhouse, had been quarreling all day, the police say, about a game of craps. Words finally came to blows, and Kinney picked up a chair and knocked Walters down, afterward Jumping on him. Burkman ran out from behind the bar and started to pull Kinney off the prostrate man, 'when Walters pulled out his revolver and fired—supposedly at Kinney, The bullet struck Burkman in the groin and passed through his bo<iy. He was carried to J )r. Gaylord’.s offlee, where the wound was examined and an intimation given that it would iirobably prove fatal. An ambulance took Burkman to his home at 177 Fletcher avenue. After the shooting, 5Valters ran out of the saloon, down I^ro.spect street, and was last seen In the Big Four yards. The police are after him, and think his arrest Is as-

sured.

A party of young men occupied the front seat of a North Indianapolis car. In the course of the ride the leader of the crowd turned and addressed the motorman, an acquaintance: "Henry, got any tobacco about you?” “Vou know 1 have,” wa.s the pleasant respon.se, and a large chunk of the weed fell into hi.s lap. He proceede'J to cut off a portion, and handed the remainder back in silence. ■‘You’re a dandy I” exclaimed one of his comimlons. "Why doji't you say 'Much obliged' to the gentleman?” A mi.schlevous fwlnkle was in the young fellov.-'s eyes as he replied: “Oh. no cne ever thanks a street-car man.”

The bicycle factory which is to be operated by convict labor at the prison north, and which was discussed In The News six week.s ago, is. beginning to' receive political attention. Work i^as l>eea pu.4hed, and the building is npw about ready. The men who are int^ested In the making of bicycles by convict labor are D. F. Allen, of Frankfort; D. A. Coulter, of Frankfort, and W. D'. Hutchinson, of Michigan City. One hundred men are to be employed at first. For the labor of aach man the State, it is re-

Beside the three named, it is reported that the following men are interested In the company: James Murdock, of Lafayette: Edward Hawkins, of Indianapolis; W. C. Smith, of GosJien, and S. P. Sheerin, of Logansport. Edward Hawkins denies that he owns any stock in the comp'iny, although he says that he tvas asked to become a member of the company which ha.s contracted for the labor

of a hundred men.

It is said that the men who are to operate the bicycle factory in the prison are acting under the name of the Allen j Manufacturing Company. It has been I announced that such a company had ; been formed, but the books of the Secretary of State failed to-day to show that such a corporation has ever filed papers in Indiana. It is intimated that the company hied papers and afterward withdrew them. Deputy Secretary of State Ellis wfus emphatic this morning in his denial that papers had ever been filed by such a co.Tipaiiy. He sal<i that the 3)apers had never been presented at his office, and that, so far as he knew, the -Allen Manufacturing Company has never

been organized.

Auditor of State Henderson said today: "I think I can speak for every offit:er in the State House. No one here owns stock in the concern. The charge that it is a company composed of Democratic officials is proven false by the fact that I). A. Coulter, a Republican, of Frankfort, Is Interested prominently.

Just then the electric piano began to play "Johnny. Get Vour Gun.” and the drummer left wilho’ul making a sale. There is an impossible mother living on the North Side. She is nothing if not fashionable. By some queer chance she has a little daughter who is as smart as her mother Is foolish. The mother dresses In the htght of fashion, and Indulges herself In those "white lies.” which are deemed necessary in the "best society.” She often has the most distressing Imaginary headaches, and de.nles herself to visitors with the usual society formula, "Not at home.” The little daughter has tried to find out wliy the mother should be guided by one rule while she is guides.! by another, and these little fibs are ;i mystery to her. The other day she was heard talking to a little friend of hers on the subject. “There's one thing about mamma,” said the little one; "I guess she’ll be able to tell the truth when she’s dead.” “M’hat do you mean?” asked her

friend.

“Why, when she dies and goes to heaven, and people call to see her when she’s got a headache, she’ll be able to say that she's not at home; and it’ll be the truth, too.” It was In Pennsylvania street and Massachusetts avenue that the trick was played. It was a regularly-organdze<l plot between two newsiioys. Tliey had the details firmly settled In their min<is. A young woman came along and waited on the comer fora street car. In her hands she carried a reticule, from which the corner of a dainty p>ocket handkerchief protruded. The smallest boy ran up to her, crying, "Paper, ma'am? Kre's The News—evenin' paper.” The woman said she’d take a paper. The small buy came closer. He held the papier In such a way that it covered the reticule, and. with the unoccupied hand, he filched the handker- 1 chief. Then he sold the paper and went away. Tlie woman did not notice her j loss. Presently, her cor came along. It stopped, and she was about to board it when she heard some one calling, apparently to her. She looked around, and saw tile newsboy on the sidewalk. He was calling to her. She hesitated, ami the car went on without her. The boy ran into the middle of the street, and, holding up the handkerchief, he said; "Beg yei' pardon, miss, for a-s<opplng of yer, but 1 guess yer dropped this handkerchief.” The young woman looked at it. "Why. It ks mine;” Then, taking it from him, she said: "I'm ever so much obliged to you, little fellow.” Then she took up her position and waited for another car. The boy looked at her in vain. His partner came up, and they both stoo<l looking at her, but she did not glance their way. Finally a car came, which she boardeil. When the car had gone, the biggest boy turned to hi.s companion, and. In tones of infinite disgust. remarked: "You're a bri>;ht one, I don’t tlilnk - nit. Talk about sf>ecelas'hun! There wasn’t much profit In that un.” Housekeepers are beginning to complain that tramps In search of meals and clothing are becoming frequent. In localities adjacent to the railroads the tramps are exiiected, but it would seem that those places, are about "worked out.” and the genus “hobo” is beginning lo seek out “green fields and pastures new.” A woman who lives in College avenue has not been much bothered by the tramp. In fact, she had her first experience with him the other day. It was just after breaJefast. Her husband had left for town, and she was In the kitchen, when a frowsy, ill-kempt man came and asked for something to eat. He told a long tale of suffering and distress, ending with the statement that he had had nothing to eat for three days. Moved by his tale of woe, the kind-hearted woman gave him a good, hot breakfast. While he ate, he told her more of his troubles, and assured her that he could get a job if he only had some decent clothes. The woman remembered one of her husband’s old suits, and with many misgivings, but with a heart full of charity, she brought It down and gave It to the tramp. He received It with every expression of thankfulness, and wandered away. The woman related the occurrence to her husband when he came home, and was laughed at for being "taken In." Next day the same weary tramp reappeared, clad in the same dirty garments of yesterday. He begged so hard for something to eat that again the woman fed him. After he had eaten, he said, "Say, mum; I’m sorry ter trouble yer, but them clothes yer glv# me yesterday

were then accumulating. It became

necessary to establish some new Indus- j contract

try.More than 200 men were,idle and their health was suffering. The bicycle factory was established in order tha* these mon might be put at work. 1 can see no harm in establishing the factory, if the convict labor system is to be permitte<i in Indiana, and that rests with the Legislature. Before the new factory was built, the convicts worked at making chairs, boots and shoes, woolen gooils and barrels. So far as I know, no Stale officecB are conneeteil with the new com-

pany.”

It is claimed, however, the following statute would apply if D. I''. Allen, as a State officer, being a member of the State Board of Tax ('omniis.sio:t'’rs, ha.s connected himself with contracts made by the blcvele factory at the prison north. The follolwlng Is the passage of

law cited;

First of n Series of Prosecutions— Depre<*lntlon <»f Pr«*pcrty. For some time there has been a movement to prosecute persons who rent property for immoral purisjs.es. The claim is made that such place-s decre-j.se the value of adjoining property. The organization maintains that If evil person.s can not rent property the evil will tie eradicated. The first arrest was made this morning. James Anderson, a prop-erty-holder, filed an affidavit against Mr-^. .Amanda Seibert, charging her with lea-;-Ing a house for immoral putpo.'^ -s, .an i she was arrested by Sergeant Hylami. In Folice (’’ourt she gave bond ainl her trial was continued for one week. I'he proi>erty .she is accused of leasing Is. located at New Jersey and Market .'.treets, and it Ls understoo'l that affldavit.s will be tiled against other property-owners in the same locality on the same charge. ItcIntliiK to !4uloun Guhcm. But one saloon man was arrested ye.sterday. He was Henry Suuters, and on a plea of guilty to giving away liquor on Sunday, was fined *10 and costs. The saloon men who pleaded guilty last Satunlaj- to selling liquor on Sunday came to the city clerk’s office this morning and paid their fines. The entire bill amounted to *120.
