TYheat Futures 3Iake a Sharp Advance and Corn Is Also Unch Higher Oats Follow in Sympathy. MONEY. STOCKS AND BONDS. New York 3Iarket Demoralized and Heavy Losses Recorded Without Apparent Ileason. NEW YORK, Oct, 4. Money oncail today was asy, with all loans being made at 3 per cent, closing offered at 3. Prime mercantile paper, Q1 per cent. Sterling exchange quiet bat firm at $4.83 for sixty-day hills and 64.874 for demand. The total sales of stocks to-day were 191,106 shares, including the following: Atchison, 14,210; Delaware, Lackawanna & Western, 6,130; Lake Shore, 3,000; Louisville & Nashville, ,120; Missouri Pacific, 6.2C0; North American, 6,470; Northern Pacific preferred. 9,000; Heading, 13,7oO; Richmond fc West Point, 4,800; St. Paul. 16,1270; Union Pacific, ia.000. The stock market to-day was comparatively active, but the activity was of the usual sort, made entirely by the operations for a decline, and the weakness was most pronounced, approaching nearly to complete demoralization. The losses incurred darina tho short session of only two hours compare favorably with those of auy full day of recent date. Tho "bears'' made what would seem to be one final efibrt to shake out long stocks, and no doubt considerable liquidation was accomplished in all portions of the list, with the single exception of Lackawanna, which was the only stock which received any support whatever. The cry was 'a bad bank statement," and after the issuo of tho statement, which was made unusually early, the most determined drive of the day was made, and the downward movement, which had been heavy throughout, was perceptibly accelerated. The opening was made at lower figures, the losses from last night's prices extending generally to hi per cent., but Kansas & Texas was exceptional, with a loss of 18 per cent. The downward movement went but little farther for the time being, the trading element starting in to cover, but the movement lacked vim and later on those stocks were thrown over and the "bears" crowded the market with an avalanche of short stocks, which broke the market badly, and especially in tho grangers, southwestern and the stocks of the Pacific roads. .There was no cessation of the pressure, which lasted right to the close, and, although there was a slight reaction in the final dealings the close was active and weak, practically at the lowest figures. Tne excessive weakness in the prices of railroad stocks continues to be out of keeping with trie actualvalues, as shown by the earnings reported. Those for the month of September, just in, show, as compared with the corresponding month of last year, great improvements, the gain in Colorado Midland being S3, per cent.; Norfolk & Western, 21; Kansas & Texas, 20. whilo the increases for the fourth week in September are: St. Paul, Oh: Iowa Central, 44, and Wheeling & Lake Erie, 40. The final losses for to-day are: St. Paul, Sx8; Wheeling & Lake Erie prefered, IV. Union Pacific, l3-i: Wabash' preferred, Ih; Missouri Pacific, 1; Louisville & Nashville, Rock Island and Burlington &, Quincy, lhi Northern Pacific preferred, lh; North American, Wheeling & Lake Erie and Western Union, 1 per cent. each. Railroad bonds were moderately active, and, while the tone of the market was heavy, there was no sympathy jsvith the demoralization which marked the dealings in biocks. me nnai cnangesoi importance are few. Reading second incomes lost 2, at 4438- ' . Government bonds were dull and steady. State bonds were dull and barely steady.

sharp advtnce of to-day. Many of the traders who were buyers the past day or two were sellers, and sellers of the past few days were buyers. The unexpected happened, and operators felt a little nervous over the situation. Some parties thought the market a healthy one. Others were rather doubtful, and thought it only a scare to force in some large "shorts." The firmness in ' cables in spito of the weakness in the Ameican markets was deemed a favorable feature. The opening was llc higher than yesterday's closing, and there was pome excitement attending the first sale.,' It then eased oil' ac for December and 34C for May, advanced to top prices and closed lic higher than yesterday. Corn attracted more than usual attention, a largo volume of business being transacted within a broader range than any day this week. The feeling developed was mnch stronger and higher prices wero the rule on all futures. Tho advance was due largely to the purchases of May by several large local houses, two of whom took, in all, about 1,000,000 bushels. Reports were received from tho West stating that corn is husking out poorly. First trades were at an advance of i4'23iC, the market selling up another 4C, reacted lie, then sold up lc, cased oil' c, ruled firm, and closed with lllho gain. The animation and advance in wheat and corn had a good c fleet on tho market for oats. Opening sales wero at 3ic advance for May, and a further appreciation of 3g0 recorded. The other deliveries advanced V2)csc, with light trading, and the market closed steady at about inside figures. Pork trading was moderate. Opening sales were made at 20 advance, but prices settled back again 5c, with very little business reported. Later prices rallied 571uc. and closed quiet. Lard tradiugwas only fair. Near deliveiies were quiet and rather slow, with little change to note in prices. The longer deliveries were firmer and 'S.Ooc higher, with fair trading. In short ribs a fair busi ness was transacted. Offerings of near deliveries were light. The longer deliveries were in fair request. Prices ruled at .02l22.05c higher, and the market closed steady at outside figures. Theleadingfuturesranged as follows:

The Past Week a Very Satisfactory One as to General Business. INDIANAPOLIS. Oct 4.-Dealcrs in all lines always look for a comparatively dull week succeeding that in which the State fair is hold, since country merchants largely avail themselves of that season for visiting the city and stocking up by personal selections to supply their needs. Tho past week, however, has been an exception in an unusual degree, a large amount of business having been done throughout the earlier and middle portions, though the rain of to-day interfered very much with trade. Coupled with tho activity which has prevailed during the closing days of September and the tirst days of the present month a gratifying feature to note is the firmness and steadiness which prevail on all staples. The like of this has not been noted for a long time previous. During the wuek closing to-day thero have been liber il purchases of dry good s and groceries. Iron merchants report an improved feeling in themarket. Leather is quiet with a strong undertone to the market. There is still a good inquiry for builders' hardware and tinners' supplies. The produce trade throughout the week has been very satisfactory, GRAIN. Tho grain market coutinues very quiet Wheat is reported slightly firmer with a better inquiry, but corn remains dull.

Among the most unwise things that some farmers are guilty of is to neglect providing for an abundant and sure supply of drink for their farm animals. . During tho past month tens of thousands of animals have been thirsty the greater part of the time. They have been permitted to drink butonco a day. and, though they were given their till, they were thirsty, before an hour, for tho air has been very hot and dry, and their feed contained little moisture, borne wero yet worse off, for they were not allowed all they wanted even this once per day, and perhaps the water given then was lukewarm. Yet others had only such drink as they got from stagnant pools, drink that was a mixture of slimy mud and offensive water. Still others were driven in the hot sun along dusty roads or paths, a mile or more, to some creek or spring, and were very thirsty when they got back to their rastnres. Animals so treated cannot thrive, n fact, they will lose rlesh, though strongly fed. Every day that they aro kept Under such conditions occasions a loss. The loss on these animals amounts to inoro than would have been the cost of wells and windmill pumps sufficient so supply them with an abundance of wholesome drink. Tho conclusion is plain. Dig a well! I urge the digging of wells for the additional reason that outside of the comparatively few localities abundantly sunplied with springs, from the rocky vents of which Rushes pure and cold water, the well is the only 6afe water supply. The creeks fed by surface water or "seeps" nearly all fail during a dry time. They are unsafe because of this, and ponds, unless very large indeed, aro open to the same objection. Theso creeks and pouda are also unsafe. The water they contain during a drought is almost sure to be very unwholesome. It is upon this mostly that I would rely for their condemnation. We cannot ali'ord to compel our animals to drink water stagnant and malodorous, reeking with decaying vegetable matter. Such water poisons; it loads tho blood with doleterious matter; it attacks thrift and threatens health. It has been determined that some of tho most destructive diseases of farm animals are caused by a specific organism, microbe; and it has also been determined that one of the most favorable mediums for the preservation and development of these microbes is filthy water. Of these diseases swine plague may be cited as a well-known example. A foul stream may carry the microbes from ono farm to another, introducing disease ou lands all along its course. But if a strong flow of water is got in a well at such a time as this, we may be sure that it has traveled such distance through the deep earth that is safe. The well must bo protected from surface contamination. A backing of cement to the wall down three or four feet below tho surface, and a low bank, of compacted clay around the curb, will keep out surface water, and with a tight platform over the well will keep out toads, mice, snakes, rabbits, etc. Such a well is sure and safe. "Fancy farmers" are blessings to agriculture. They reach for the best, make experiments, and gradually lead the more practical workers to a realization of tho importance of superior stock and better methods. But for the "fancy farmers" many of onr best breeds would not now bo known, and agriculture Vfould bo behind qther pursuit
