Seam Wu the Onlj"PearM Who Bought, and This Was Supposed to Be to Cover His Line of Shorts Maize Held Strong in Sympathy. SIONET, STOCKS AND BONDS. Share Contlned to llise Until the Report of New Stock in Hocking Valley Came. NEW YORK. Oct. 9. Money on call was vasj, ranging from 4 to 5 per cent, the last loan being made at 4; closing offered at 4. Prime mercantile paper 6S7 percent. Sterling exchange was quiet and steady at $4.79 for iLity.day bills and $4.814 for demand. The total tales of stocks to-day were 227,414 shares, including the following: Atchison, 4D.000; Chicago Gas, 11.700; Erie, 14.SS5; Hocking Valley, 10,750; Missouri l'acific, 0.80C; North American, 4.5C0; Northern Pacific preferred, 10.500; Heading. 2,200; fctPaul, 13,blC; Union I'acitio, 8,400. The stock market to-day was practically repetition of those of the last tvro days, and was in the main & steady contest between the "bear" and 'bull'' factions among the local and professional trading element, and, after mild fluctuations in "both directions, the advantago rests with the latter party. The operations of the past few days have undoubtedly added largely to the outstanding "short'' interest in the market, and the aggregate is now large, while there is no stock pressing for sale on "long" accounts. Ontside of the advices in regard to the gold movement there was nothing in the news of the day to cause any movement of importance in the market, and such changes as were made "were in most cases the result only of the operations of the opposing factions of speculators. The opening was heavy and lower in sympathy with tne lower London market. Atchison bore the brunt of the early pressure, but the entire list moved up slowly. These were anions the specialties principally, and the Nickel-plate stock. Hock Island, Burlington and Missouri Pacific rose over 1 per cent. each. Prices slowly crept op in the general list nntil toward 2 J. M., when the highest tignres of the day were attained. Then a rumor of a new issue of stock on the Hocking Valley caused sv drop of nearly la per cent, in that stock, to which the rest of the list responded, and fractional concessions followed all along the line. Hocking Valley, however. afterWard recovered all of the loss, and the general list steadied. The market finally closed dull, but steady, at close to the best of the day. The dealings in railroad bonds were barren of special features, but the tone remained firm, without material change of note among the leading active shares. The total sales were only $s04,O0O. Government bonds have been dull, bat firm. State bonds were dull and steady. Closing quotations were: Pour per cr. re...llG14 Four per ct. coup.UGVi Pacitto 6s of 'U5...111.

Oct. 0.-Vheat started out a t24le "wabbly" this morning, selling on both tides of last night's closing figures CStmnd the opening, then became strong, adtancing about lUc, holding nearly all of it to the close. Early cables were conflicting. Tfiose from Liyerpooltotho Hoard of Trade quoted the market as steady and unchanged, while private advices quoted at It 21 penny higher, and London G pence up. Stew-York reported a brisk foreign demand, and dispatches there said that sixty boatloads had been accepted by this morning on cable orders last night. Dispatches from Dulutb reported 75.C03 bushels taken there for export, or l.OuO.OOO bushels t'.uring the past two days. There was ctiTe buying on New York and Northwestern account, and by local "shorts," with the oflenngs rather light, with sellers conservative and cautious. News from the Northwest tras conilicting, but the impression conveyed was that while the weather was still bad in some localities the general situation was greatly improved. In the Southwest the seeding of winter wheat was

said to be proceeding rapidly, the late rains having put the ground in tine condition. Iteam was a good buyer, but it impossible tbst he was simply covering "shorts." and he is known to have sold heavily around Ifto and 90c a few days ago. Logan, Schwartz. Dnpee, Kenuett, Hopkins and Latuson Bros, were among the best buyers, with Hutchinson's brokers. JIately Dros.. Arthur Orr and l'roseau liberal sellers. Milmine-Dodman bought early, but sold generously on the advance. December opened atOSSo. sold to99l?c. broke toW'ic, then advanced with immaterial reactions to 1.004. In the afternoon it eased off some on realizing sales, going to 81. but on stronger English cables, and a report that seventy boat-loads had been taken at New York lor export and thirty at Boston, the price reacted tol.OOand closed steady at 81.001'. The closing continental cables quoted Berlins1? marks lower for October. Paris 10 centimes higher on November, but 15 centimes lower on January and April, with Antwerp 12l3 centimes higher. Corn was strong and higher, largely in sympathy with wheat, but partly on account of the small receipts, only sixtyseven cars having been inspected in where eighty were expected. Trade was slow, however, with Bartlett-Frazier, the best buyers, and Poole-Sherman liberal sellers. October opened at 52'ic. touched SSsc, sold to 5S4c without material recession; but weakened near the end of the session and closed at Mis c. against 32 o at the close yesterday. Oats were neglected and the price remained steady. Hog products were weak and lower on free selling by packers and liquidation by December "lone." this, in the face of higher prices for hogs. The close shows a loss of 5S15o in the price of pork; .02.05c, in lard, and .024c in ribs, except October, which is unchanged. The leading futures ranged as follows:

Failures Are Numerous, but General Business Prospects Are Picking Up. NEW YORK, Oct. 9. R. G. Dun &. Co.'s weekly review of trade says: From all parts of the West and South come advices that business is gradually improving, and the improvement is felt in Eastern centers. There is still a most encouraging absence in any trade of that speculative excitement and overconfidence which is so often a presage of disaster. Purchases are governed by unusual conservatism, and yet aro large in volume. Failures are rather numerous, but are in nearly all cases the results of a long-continued commercial strain since the foreign disasters of last November. It is true that prices of nearly all manufacturing products are low and the margins for prolit very narrow, while the competition is severe, but the volume of trade is larger tbau in any previous year, in spite of the fact that some branches of busiuess are retarded. It is also true that collections in some quarters are slow, but the latest reports from various sections are ou the whole more favorable. The news regarding the thief industries is decidedly favorabl3 The iron industry is more tirm in tone. It is felt that the delay in improvement of the demand for rails at present is the only barrier to a general advance. In copper there is uncertainty, with sales of lake at 12.35c. Tin is doll at 20.10c, and lead in moderate demand. The market for wool is quiet at Boston and elsewhere, but sales aro not small, aud receipts at tbe West sreatly exceed last year's. Boston reports a good business and ample supplies of money. At Philadelphia more inquiry is seen for iron. At Cincinnati and Cloveland fair activity is ncted. and at Chicago trado thus far tbis year exceeds that of all previous years, sales of clothing and shoes being large, but of dry goods a little less than a year ago. The week's receipts of wheat are four times last

year's; rye. ten times, and wool double; increase in dressed beef and bides, but decrease in other articles. Trade is improving at Omaha and at Minneapolis, where lumber advances with unprecedented sales, and Hour-mills are fully employed. The output last week was the largest on record at St. Louis, where the demand for money shows strong trade iu most lines. At Kaunas City better weather gives steady employment, and at Denver. At the cuth the improvement is also general and heavy receipts of cotton are noted at avannan, Charleston, Galveston and New Orleans. The pause in stock speculation binders the placing of securities for railroad extensions and other improvements, but it is nevertheless healthy. Speculation in breadstuffs have been less active, but wheat has advanced nearly 2c. with sales of only twenty-nine million bushels, while corn has declined ll4C and oats lac. Cotton is slightly stronger ana oil So higher, but coffee has fallen ll4C and lead is a shade lower. The treasury has made but slight change in the supply of currency. With large receipts of gold since Oct. 1, and more coming, tho shipments to the interior have been lessened for tho moment. But markets at Chicago, St. Louis and some other Western points show a stronger demand, indicating that larger shipments from the East will presently be required. On the whole, tbe outlook for industrial progress is decidedly satisfactory. The business failures oocurring throughout the country during tbe last seven days number 240, as compared with the total of 220 for the last week. Corresponding week of last year, 251.

Oct. 9.-Inqniry among merchants in tbe various branches of trade gives evidence that there has been a marked improvement in trade since October came in, and it bids fair to still further improve, and with this ilnctuations in values are few. CoMees are weak and are likely to go lower. Green ns well as roasted grades have been too high for two years past. The demand for sugars is decreasing, and with this prices rule easier, but not quotably lower in this market. The provisiou market is active for October, prices in the main being steady on the descriptions which come most generally into consumption. Millers are dissatisfied with the situatiou. Wheat being relatively higher than Hour, they are placed at great disadvantage, which disadvantage in time may be overcome. As yet they have made but little money this year. The produce market is active, and, with the more falllike weather, prices are slightly firmer. The apples now oilered are of a better quality and command a better price, but still rule low as compared with last year. Irish potatoes and sweet potatoes are to be in abundant supply, and lower prices rather than higher are anticipated. Foreign frmts are only in moderate supply and prices iirm. T he market East is becoming glutted with poultry and lower prices are indicated. Eggs are in strong demand at the present high range of prices. GKAIX.

Answers in three weeks. Odds and Ends. An easy method of covering jam-pots, and one which many housekeepers use. is to dip the cut papers into a little boiled milk and lightly press them round the not, to which they will adhere, and in this way keep the jam quite air-tight. Take up your geraniums before the frost catches them. It is best to put them in pots at once, as no benefit will be derived by allowing them to remain in the ground longer. A few cold nights may cause them to turn yellow, as they are very tender. In setting your table,' always have two teaspoons laid at each person's plate. This method will effectually prevent the constant passing of the spoon-holder or tbe handling of epoons in any other way, as one rarely has need for more than two at the ordinary meaL Don't rub the baby's gums with a thimble when he is teething, under the impression that you are doing him a favor.
