HPPT Daj for th "IJulU Everything Moves . Up. with the Favorites In the Lead. NEW YORK, Aug. 8. Money on call Tras easy at 223 per cent, the last loan being made at 22. closing offered at 2. Frime mercantile paper, .VSO per cent. Sterling exchange quiet but steadyat $1-83 for sixty-day bills, and HS? for demand. Tho total aales of stocks to-day were 180,004 chares, Including the following: Atchison, 7,C00; Lake Shore, 5,150; Missouri Pacific, 10,710; Northern Pacific preferred, 11,170; Reading, 0,100; St Paul, 14.9CO. The stock market to-day, while at first exhibiting a feverish and rather weak tone, recovered later, and moving up rapidly, scored material gains over last evening's prices throughout tho entire list. The action of tho directors of tho Bank of Kn gland in raising their rates of discount, together vrith the rereports of defalcations both hero and in tho West, gave the bears an opportunity to weaken the list at the start, which was aided also by the lower figures from the London market. Under these circumstances first prices were from H to per cent, lower than our figures of last evening, but the decline went no further, as a buying demand was met, which was shown immediately in the improving tendency in prices during the early dealings. The other news of the day was generally of a favorable nature, and the insiders coming to the support of their favorites, a strong tone was soon developed in the market which recovered the losses of the opening before noon. The specialties as usual took the lead in the advance, and Northern Pacific, C, C, C. & St. L., Chesapeake & Ohio and Missouri Pacifio became the leaders. The trusts were dull and almost neglected. Lake Erie it Western preferred, however. was a favorite under the talk of Vanderbilt buying, and shot up over 1 per cent. The dullness lasted nntil toward delivery hour, when there was a renewal of the good buying of the forenoon, and Missouri Pacific, Northern Pacific preferred and the Chesapeake &. Ohios advanced. The movement lasted until the close of business, though the activity died away in the last hour and the market closed dull and firm to 6trong at about the best prices of the day. The final changes are almost all in tho flirtation of higher figures, and C.,C. C. &. Ht. L. rose lg, Missouri Pacific 1 and Lake Lrie fc Western preferred 1 per cent. Railroad bonds were a little more active to-day, the sales of all issues aggregating 81.494,000, of which Richmond & Allegheny firsts certificates furnised $346,000. and the Chesapeake fc Ohio fives 355,000. The business in the remainder was small and very evenly divided. The tone of the market was like that in stocks, firm to strong, but the market was narrow, and important changes in quotations nre few in number. The advances include Krie seconds extended, 28, to r.Tty Decatur & Evansvillo seconds, 2, to 70, and Great Western second receipts, I1, to 101 ;r. Government bonds "were dull and heavy for fours.

TR,DIN AT CHICAGO. The Cps and Downs of the Market, with the Range in Irices of Ieadlng Articles. CHICAGO, Aug. 8.-Tbo record of today's wheat market is barren of developments or interesting features, llather n light local trade was about all thero was loingiu futures. The profound dullness aoted of lato is owing partly to lack of ontlide orders and partly to the fact that 3iany of our largest operators aro at present out of the city. Fluctuations in prices wero again within very narrow limits, tho bulk of tho trading being within range all tho forenoon, and the ground traveled over about tho same as yesterday. Fair buying by parties who wero 'short" yesterday and some demand, supposed to bo for continental account, through a local house, developed a stronger tone, and from tho inside liguren paid early there wa a rally of 142 3hc. December pold from up to 7h!vc. The bulk of the trading in tho meantime waA from ?S1m to 78t,l'Tii',HC together. The Northwest has been getting too innch rain lately, and the news from thero was Rouerally favorable for holders. Closing quotations wero Vc lower than yesterday for the leading futures. Very- little interest was manifested in corn, trading being light and confined to room operators. Fluctuations covered an exceedingly narrow ran ere, and prices did not vary materially from Wednesday, closing quotations being a tri lie easier than on Wednesday. Oats were weaker and a shade lower, with a lighter volume of business. Tho easiness was duo to increased arrivals. Not quito so much Interest was manifested in tho market for mess pork, and tho feeling was easier. Prices declined 12V&15C, and cloftd steady at medium figures. An active hutim'Hs was transacted in the lard market, and tho feeling was stronger. Prices ruled (til9ii.VAc higherearly, but settled bark again.' and closed comparatively steady. Trading was moderatively active in short rill, uudijricea ruled Btrung. Tho feeling

was not so strong, and prices later declined

J-'i.ftV', closing steady at mcdii lum figures.

There was some demand for cash wheat among the sample tables In the morning, and trade was restricted by the limited amount of wheat offered of the proper quality. There were a few orders in from mill to the south and east for certain qualities of wheat to work in with their new winter wheat, and had there been larger offerings the trading eould have absorbed mora without weakening prices. A fair inquiry existed for No. 1 also. The poorer qualities of fronted wheat were the hardt'Ktto fell. The receipts were 07 car-loads, and 43 car loads were shipped out.

Trade continues fairly good in all departments, but there is nothing worthy of special mention anywhere. The delay experienced in getting the season's wheat crop to market has been a great drawback, but this trouble is gradually disappearing, and thero are more buyers coming to the city than for a good while past. The traveling salesmen send in good reports also, while mail orders are increasing. Tho firm tone which has characterized tho markets for some time still continues, and tho general condition of business is healthy. Dry goods, groceries, produce, fruits, vegetables, etc., aro substantially as reported yesterday. GRAIN. The receipts of wheat to-day wero CO cars, against 59 yesterday, with tho grading about the same. It must be borne In mind, however, that the Inspection here Is very close, and that nearly all)f Indianapolis rejected wheat would grade No. 3, or better, at almost every other inspection point. The receipts of corn wero 14 cars, against 3 yesterday, and of oats 4 cars, against none on the preceding day. The demand for grade wheat continues good, but rrices shade lower. The inquiry for corn continues to be of a local character, and good mixed is readily disposed of on that account. There is only a local Jobbing Inquiry for oats, whilo bran and hay meet with little demand.

It is said that the green cabbage-worm is discouraged by the following treatment: Two quarts of coal tar aro put intoau open vesset which is set in tho bottom of a barrel and the barrel is tilled with water. In forty-eight hours the water is impregnated with the odor of the tar although the tar is not dissolved m it I ho water ia then sprinkled abundantly on the cab bages, and the odor penetrates every poruon ot tne iieaa. Killing or ariving away the worms. As tho water evaporates no stain or odor remains on the cabbage. 1 ho same quantity of coal tar can be made to impregnate several successive barrels ot water. To attempt to keep down strawberry runn era requires constant work, as the vines will send out new runners as fast as tbo first ones are cut away. Unless the work is well done it is better to allow tho lirst runners that come to remain, as they will be stronger and more vigorous than those that are sent out by tho vines later. Weeds make valuable food for hogs. It is much better to feed the yonng and tender weeds to stock than to allow them to waste. On some fields the weeds are often thick enough to mow. The pig-weed and rag-weed make excellent hog food. Purslaine and crab-grass are highly relished by cattle and swine. 0)ATeR3TSI!1 y CALL OS OS ADDRESS ul O.&E.W. Bradford, c2 INDIANAPOLIS. IND.
