Continuation of tho Upward Tendency Sugar Trust the Only Weak Spot. NEW YORK, Oct. 23.-Money on call was easier, ranging from 3 to 8 per cent., tho last loan berna made at 3 per cent, closing offered at 3 per cent. Prime mercantile paper 7 per cent Sterling exchange quiet bat weak at 84.81 for sixty-day bills and ?L& for demand. The total sales of 6tocks to-day were 213,. 013 shares, including the following: Atchieon, 7,4X; Delaware, Lackawanna fc Westem, 4.CO0; Kansas &, Texas. 8,940; Lake Shore, 4.410; Louisville & Nashville, 17,601; Missouri Pacific." 12,835; Northwestern; 7,075;" Northern Pacific preferred,, 6,835; leading. 13,210; St Paul. 13.0C0; Union Pacific. 1.175; Western Union, 5,100. The strength of the stock market yesterday was continued to-day, and, while tho trading was less active in tho forenoon, it increased later, when several stocks moved up rapidly. The advances however, vero not so prominent, and. while the entiro active list is again higher, to-night, the improvement is generally contincdtofractional amounts. Money was decidedly easier, especially in the afternoon, and the rato on call was gotten down as low as 3 per cent. which gave a stimulus to the covering of shorts," and so f nrnished a foundation for the advances scored. There was little news of importance in regard to the railroads, but Kansas & Texas stock became a feature on the renewal of the rumors of yesterday in regard to a new plan of reorganization, and tho rumor ran that a settlement of difficulties between tho connecting interests of the -bondholders would bo settled, 'to-day. The return of this stock to activity under such circumstance r had au influence for good upon the Gonld shares ingeneral, and Missouri Pacific, Manhattan, Texas Pacific and Western Union all wero more or less active and stronger. Insiders were buyers of Louisville & Nashville, and the assertion that tho stock is to go higher was persistently circulated with marked effect. Union Pacilic was also a special favorite, especially in the afternoon, when it became the leader of the entire list, being taken quite freely. It rose rapidly, the improvement being accompanied bv stories of a now bull pool in the stock. Thero was also talk of important results to tlow from a proposed alliance of Northwestern and Manitoba. The coal stocks were steady and the Vanderbilts and Villards tirra, while tho trusts were rather weak with the single exception of Chicago Gas, which was advanced sharply, but lost most of the improvement. The foreigners and commission houses were the principal buversof long stocks, while the supply came from the professionals and some of the Chicago people, and tho grangers made but slow progress. The opening of the market was rather irregular, but the general list displayed an advancing tendency, though tho trusts were weak, and a raid npon values was indulged in in the earl' trading, which caused a recession of small fractions from the opening figures. The strength soon became apparent, however, and a slow but steady appreciation of values, which lasted with but slight interruptions until the close of business, was inaugurated. Kansas &. Texas was the most prominent feature in the afternoon, and Union Pacific later in the day. but tho improving tendency reached all portions of the list, and final prices are about at the top figures, the market closing strong. The important final changes are few in number. Union Pacific rose l1?, and JerBey Central and Louisville & Nashville 1 per cent, each, while Sugar refineries is down l'h. Railroad bonds were again quite active, the sales reaching 1.227,000, out of which the Texas & Pacific seconds furnished $255,000, and the Kansas &. Texas sixes $180,000. The Kansas &. Texas issues were again prominent for strength, but they failed to make any marked movement. Government and fctate bonds were dull and featureless.

Tho Up and Dovrii of the Market, with th Range In Prices of Leading Articles. CHICAGO. Oct. 23. Wheat trading was active and a firmer feeling existed, which prevailed most of tho session, though occa sional weak spots developed. The strength was caused largely by parties who had sold freely the past few days trying to got some of their wheat back. Foreigners, it was claimed, had sent some buying orders. and thero was also "long" buying from other sources, which, together with the demand from "shorts," created quitean active demand. The opening was t'itfSyc higher than yesterday's closing, which advanco was followed bv a further improvement of Vc; then occurred a break of jc for December and 14c for May, which was followed by an advance of Hc for December and 7ec for May, closing about Sin hiffher for December and In higher for May than the closing llgures of yesterday. May took the lead again to-dav. selling lrom 3Js2;2o higher than Decem ber. The reason for this ma v be that tho trading of late has been largely in Mar de livery, and as operators preferred t sell this month rather than December, having less fear of manipulation, it created a greater short interest, and tho "shorts" covering, consequently brought out a corresponding ly greater demand. Tho advanco of to-day is looked npon oy many as oniy temporary, though prices may be carried still nigher. There, no doubt, was some bnvintron the belief that such will be tho case, based upon the reported falling oil of farmers -de liveries in tho Northwest,.which. however, may not show in tho movement for several days yet The buying was stimulated some by the report that nineteen boat loads had been taken in New lork for export. Ad vices wero somewhat contradicting on the export news, some claiming that the above report Jnclnded old business and others that November shipments wero included. Late advices stated that fourteen loads went out comnrisincr seven boats, which were loaded for Lisbon. Some bad reports of the growing winter wheat were received again to-day trom Michigan, and the rains in Ohio and Indiana, it was claimed, were only liffht showers. A rathr lirm feeling was manifested in the corn market aud transactions were at slightly higher prices. The better tone was due largely to the smaller movement, to day's arrivals falling short of expectations. A promlnntit local speculator wa reported as being a purchaser to-day, The specula tlve tnarlm upvned a trllle above the closing quotations of yesterday, was firm the f rvater part 01 too session, mougn no ma erial advance was rucorded. but final trades wera a shade above those of Voster day Oats arrivals wore below estimate.

In most departments, to-day, a fair volumo of trade was in progrees, with steady prices prevailing, as a rule.

Choice winter fruits will now be held until stocks which decay rapidly are worked off. Poultry, eggs and butter all rule easy, but the downward tendency in prices has apparently been checked. In groceries there is a fair movement at unchanged prices. Cotrees rule steady, with a tendency to higher prices. Sugars are qniet East, prices for 1 e lined easy. Teas are in good request Rice firm.

F. Clarkson, in Des Moines Register. Indiana has a great variety of farmlands. Some parts of the State have a deep and Crolitic soil, while other parts are broken, arren and unproductive. But taking into consideration its soil, mineral desposits and its climate, but few, if any States have in combination superior advantages. This has been a varied and peculiar year in Indiana for farming. 1 hey have at some times almost unprecedented rains, and at other times parched up with drought. Their crops are not equal to those of Iowa. In fact, tuey never are. But a man who has enjoyed the glorious crops of the Hawkeye State for thirty-four years continuous, ly, is scarcely qualified to jndge of what is a good crop in Indiana or Ohio. Because they do not come up to our measure, it is hardly fair to cail their crops failures. But the farmers of Indiana are but little in debt. The State is thirty or forty years older than Iowa. The farms were long ago improved and stocked. The second lot of better houses, on the farms, such as dwellings, barns, cribs and out-houses, which always supersede the first crude and cheap build ings erected by the frontier settler, were built years ago. This second class have long since been paid for. The Hoosiers are a contented people, and are not so much striving to buy all of the land, adjoining them, hence, there is no occasion for so many farm mortgages. Nor is there quite as much striving after large. fortunes by short routes. . It is probable we never so fully appreciated tho beauty and grandeur of Indiana as a farming country as we did last Tuesday, coming from Indianapolis to Columbus. The diversified scenery of natural timber groves and farm lands is marvelous. The farms are clean, neat; the woods trimmed out and sown to blue-grass, as clean of brnsh and rubbish as an orchard. Tho region named is about rolling enough to be delightful farming. The farm houses are all neatly painted, and being untarnished with coal smoke, they all look as if they had just been Eainted. The fall thus far hasevidentlv een very favorable for sowing fall wheat, for we never recollect seeing fall wheat look so well the first week in October. From the time we left Peoria, 111., going east, we found all of the streams and spring brooks were ilush with plenty of water, not from recent rains, but indicating that the earth was soaked, and all of its watery arteries well supplied. Pastures are remarkably good all through Illinois and Indiana. But the corn crop indicates that in both States, on level lands, rains have been excessive, rendering in many cases small crops of corn, with too much grass for plowing in wheat among the standing corn. Through Illinois ana Indiana there is not one-half as much corn cut up and shocked as we have noticed on former occasions. The Republican boys in a good humor today have resurrected their tin horns, aud with toots, given with a vim, are reminding the Democrats that there has been an election in tho two Dakotas, Montana and Washington. There is more personal feeling mixed up with the politics of Indiana than there is further west, aud almost every Republican -you meet here is warming himself up already for tho contest in this State next year. They aro chating for the fight. The outrages which have been committed by Democracy in districting the State for members of tno Legislature and Congress, and the villainies they have committed on justice and on the Republican party in the Legislature, are arousing feeU ings which wo know but littlo about in Iowa. Wo see nothing to prevent as exciting an election next year as it was last, and thotich tho apportionment is all against the Republicans, the determination which they propose to put forth to right tho great wrongs is seldom unsuccessful. Doubly armed is he whose cause is just. Some Recipes. Brown Bread. Two cups of rye meal, one and one-third cup of Indian meal, one and two-thirds cup of wheat flour, one-half cup of molasses, three cups of milk or water, one teaspoonful of soda, one teaspoonful of salt. Mix well, cover tight and steam three hours. Banana Dessert. Cut twelve very ripe bananas in slices lengthwise. Place these in a glass dish and squeeze over them the juice from a lemon. Mako a boiled custard from the best recipe? you have, pour this over them and add a covering of ' the whipped whites of eggs. Fruit Punch, or Tutti Frotti. Make lemonade, taking pains to have it not quite so sweet as you would if it were to remain in this unadorned condition. Cut into it, in thin disks, three or four bananas; then slice in two o ranees: lastly add a snoonful of currant jelly thoroughly dissolved in a little water. All who have tasted this drink pronounce it "lit for ye gods." Have it ice-cold Instead of exposing tho corn-foddor in the fields, it should be stored under cover as soon 11s dry enough, and it would be aa advantage to have it in the baru beforo it gets wet, winch, however, is not always ossibie, but tue jess exposure to rain bo etter. In the South the stalks aro stripped of the blades, which are cured m .bandies, and put in the bam immediately, which renders th'e fodder very acceptable to ttock of all kinds, it largely supplying tho place of hay.-FhlldclpbJa Record.
