Considerable of a lie action In New York from the Spurt of the Day Before. NEW YORK, Sept 4.-Money on call was easy at 324 per cent., the last loan being made at 3 jcr cent.; closing, o&ered at 3 per cent. Prime mercantile paper, 57 percent. Sterling exchange quiet and steady at for sixty-day hills, and $4.8734 for demand. The total sales of stocks to-day -were 291,915 shares, including tho following: Atchison, 11,570; Delaware, Lackawanna & Western, 19.5G2; Louisville &. Nashville, 14,825; Missouri Pacific, 12,100; Northwestern, 7,223; Northern Pacific, 14,033; Northern Pacific preferred, 50,531; Oregon Transcontinental, J8,48; Reading. 12,200: St. Paul, 24,025; Union Pacific, 15.SS0. The stock market to-day was less active than yesterday, and at the same time was more irregular and feverish, with some marked movements in the speculative favorites and the general list traded in within narrow limits. There was no marked change in the tone of the market, however, and the underlying strength of the situation was demonstrated by the way in which prices were held up in the face of the heavy realizations in the leading speculative stocks. London prices this morning were lower, and there was considerable realizing, which the cables stated were from this side, but the opening of our market was generally firm, and Northern Pacific preferred opened close to the best price for a week past. The sellin g in that stock, however, was very marked, and the pressure in the early dealings was so great that a drop of per cent, was Rcored in the first few minutes' trading. The market was almost wholly in the bands of the local traders, and London and Chicago stood aloof for the time being, but there was fresh buying enough to resist the influence 01 the drop in Northern Pacific preferred, and especially as the common stock displayed most pronounced strength and soon scored a rise of 13 per cent. Later in the day, however, both gave way under the heavy pressure brought against them and the lowest prices of the day were made in them at the close, the loss in the preferred during the last hour being nearly 3 percent, though it closed somewhat better than the lowest prices. The movements in the general list up to 1 p. m., were generally in tna upward direction, though Louisville & Nashville was the only stock which showed any decided strength. Late in the day the coal stocks became the leading strong feature and Delaware & Hudson and Lackawanna made a decided upward movement in the face of the weakness of the rest of the list The Yanderbilts also displayed come strength during the afternoon, and served to counteract the general declining tendency. The close, under the influence of the free selling of the Northern Pacifies, Vas heavy to weak. The trusts were neglected, 'the final changes of note among the stocks were advances of 27 in Delaware & Hudson, and 1 percent in Colorado coal, and a decline of 25s in Northern Pacific preferred. Railroad bonds presented the same quiet business with a generally firmer tone and a lew marKedcnanges in quotations, ine sales reached 1,017,000, including $165,000 Denver and Rio Grande Western certificates. , Government bonds wero dull and steady.

Wheat A small volume of speculative business was transacted and during a greater portion of the forenoon December wheat was pegged at 7S78 79c Once the price touched 7S34'S7378C and at another time it went to 79c, but the market hung inert and characterless within these limits until after 12 o'clock. Opening figures were lec under yesterday's latest bids and the general tone was one of weakness throughout Cables and statistics were bearish in their influence to-day. Early cables were quiet and he lower for spot grain at Liverpool and closing ones noted a decline ia futures of Id. London reported English country markets dull and Paris wheat was 3d lower. Private cables were all of the same tenor, and foreigners were reselling wheat in this and other markets previously bought for export. Had it not been for the support of a prominent local operator who bought all the December that was for sale at TSc, the market would probably have receded to a lower level in the early dealings. At 79c and above, however, this same trader sold rather freely. During the last hour of the session th,e market firmed up to TOc for December and 8314'S833fctc for May, on the prediction of a cold wave. A fair business was transacted in the corn market and the feeling was somewhat firmer, due to reports of cooler vreather in the West. Trading was rather spasmodic, the market at times ruling very quiet The market opened at Stfc. at yesterday's closing prices, was firm and gradually advanced c. became active and strong and closed lVc higher than yesterday. Oats wero traded in with a little more freedom. A stronger feeling developed and prices advanced VSc. Offerings were not so free and tho demand a trifle better, especially from shorts. A fairly active trade was reported in pork, with the bulk of the business in October delivery. Prices ruled easier for the deferred and rather stronger for the nearer deliveries, but outside prices were not supported to. thecloso. Trading in lard was fair, and the feeling was easier. Prices ruled .(&a .OTJc lower, and closed steady at medium figures. Tho market for ribs attracted fair attention. The feeling was ea.y early, and prices receded .07122.10c ou October and .02Va.05c on January delivery. Toward the close the market was stronger, and prices rallied .lO.Rjc on October and .05 a.07Lc on January, closing firm. Tho leading futures ranged as follows: Option.

Philadelphia Record. Jelly-making is an art, tho height of the housekeeper's skill, for it demands keen taste, nicety and promptness to secure perfection rather than tho twenty minutes' boiling and tho pound for pound of sugar which most women imagine all there is of jelly-making. Tho stoneware preserving-pans are best for all fruit uses, and a kerosene -stovo, with an iron stove-lid under the pan, works quickly without overheating jell v or jellymaker. Only a quart of juice should be pressed at a time, and made up as quickly as possible. Standing, it loses flavor and: develops 6harp ferment, which gives tho edge to so much of the jelly made. A sunnyday before a storm, when the kettle boils awav fast, is the best day for boiling jelly, as tho juice evaporates faster. The linest jellies, however, are made without heat, but by this process it needs bo fair, settled weather. Use the best confectioners' sugar for jelly, or roll and silt the granulated until it is fine and will dissolve quickly. Have the sugar measured and glasses ready before pressing tho juice. Press and strain through Uannel, with6ut squeezing or stirring, but moving the juice to fresh parts of the straining-cloth as it becomes clogged. On careful straining depends the crystal clearness of the jelly, which is read of of toner than seen. Repeated straining lessens the flavor. What remains on the cloth should be scraped off for marmalade, but jelly requires the first run of the fruit. Use three-fourths of a cup of sugar to a cup of strained juice, stirring spoonful by spoonful into tne bowl, and continuing to stir till the sugar, is entirely dissolved ten to fifteen minntes. Then pour into glasses and set in full sunshine. A table on an open porch, or a broad shelf outside the window, is the best place, covering each tumbler with one oi the umall squares of glass. In time moisture gathers on the under side of the glass, and it must be turned and wiped dry, changing the position of the jelly to keep it always in the sun. Sometimes it must bo exposed for a week before it gets .- firm, but usually two or three hours is enough, and the juice jellies on the edge of the bowl before pouring out The flavor of the fruit is kept in full freshness by this' method, and the jelly is not so likely to mold as when boiled. When thoroughly linn lay disks of white paper cut to fit the glass, dipped in salad oil and drained on, the top of the jelly, and cover with tin covers or paper brushed on both sides with white of eg or the thick water of boiled rice. For boiled jellies set the iuice boiling rapidly and sift in the heated sugar, spoonful by spoonful, not to check the boiling, using equal care neither to scorch nor cool the fruit. The best manufacturers say the secret of high flavor is to keep fruit boiling as rapidly as possible till the juice is evaporated enough to jelly, which should bo ten minutes, but in domestic methods is twenty. The only way to tell when it is done is to drop a little on a cold saucer to see if it thickens. Then take it oil', cool in a draft, and pour into dry. clean glasses, which seal as before. Powdered sugar on the top protects from mold as well as the oiled paper, and parafline paper, closely fitted, may be used in place of the latter. More care should be given to secure variety of flavor and fruits for jelly. A Few Recipes. Broiled Tomatoes. Wash and wipe tho tomatoes and put them on a gridiron over live coals, with the stems down. When that sidens brown; turn and let thom cook through. Put on a hot dish and send quickly to tho table to be seasoned there according to taste. Cucumber Catsup.Prepare cucumbers as for the table, only, instead of slicing, grate them on a coarse grater, adding a very little linely-chopped onion and grated horseradish, v th salt, pepper and good vinegar; before adding tho last, drain oft as much juice as possible, that the vinegar may not make it too thin. Put into bottles or jars, and keep in a cool place. It is. delicious in spring, when one is longing for something fresh from the garden. Spiced Fruit. A good general recipe for spiced fruit, including peaches, currants, crab apples and green tomatoes is as follows: Peel the peaches and stick a few cloves in each. For seven pounds of peaches take three and one-half ponnds of brown sugar, two ounces of stick cinnamon and one quart of vinegar; boil these together a few minutes and then put in the peaches. When tender take them out and put them into glass or stone jars, boil the syrnpdown almost one-half and ponr it over the fruit.

I don't know of anything prettier for ribbon beds. It can bo transplanted without the least injury after it is in bloom, so that you can be sure of having your colors just as you want them. There is not a prettier spot in my flower garden at this moment than the corner in , which my portulaca is growing.

The proportion maybe left to the taste of the jelly-maker. Agriculturist: In some sections of Maine, where canning of vegetables is carried on to a considerable extent, the farmers drop a pea with each piece of potato as planted. The two thrive well together; the peas yield a good crop for the canner, and do not perceptibly interfere with the potato yield. We regard this a good plan, as we do tho planting of cucumbers among early corn, securing a good crop of each
