Western Union, 5,9"0. The stock market was unsettled again yesterday. An active trading vas in progress from the opening to the Hose, but It was mainly on the bear side, and the greater number of the stocks traded In showed a decline on the day rangins: from U to 2 per cent., the heaviest loss beins In Distillers. Itumor was a larce factor of the speculation and was used by the bears to depreciate the shares of the two Jfadinjc Industrial properties. Sugar was attacked under cover of a report that at next week's directors meeting the dividend on the common stock would be re-hu-ed. This story found some believers and precipitated on the market a large amount of stock. The room traders also .sold the shares, and within the lirxt quarter of an hour Sugar had broken 2 per cent., to 102'-. The lower range of prices brought in some buyers, and, the rumored dividend reduction being fjnd to have no foundation, and be ins; denied by the trust brokers, a steady recovery took place, which wa.n followed by fractional reactions and rallies until after delivery hour, -when a. brhk buying movement was organized on what was believed to a "straight tip." that the regular dividend would be declared next f uesd iy. A quick rise ensued to 1U, be in; w Rain of 3 from the low point of the morning. Utilization then set In, causing a reaction of the closing rrie:3 showing an advance of compared with the final sale yestri-d;i Distilling was neglected early in the morning, and moved witnin a rang'1' of "'. but atter midday a raid was maae on the stock, which sent it down from the test prlc? of the morning. When the tariff bill went into effect leaving the greater part f tne trust's goods in bond, a claim was set up that the increased tax could not bo collected on spirits' bonded before th? law went Into force. No serious attention was pai l to this pretension, but on the strength of a private dispatch from the West, pointing out the absurdity of the cliim. the drive againt the stock of the company was made. Jarge blocks were sold hort, and on small covering a rally of T: was effected, of which a was lot at the close, the final quotation being 2 below Wednesday's closing. The general market opened steady, but soon became- unsettled, gradually steadying, and at 11 o'clock beccrp.ing' ptron?, prices bring fairly well held until about the middle of the afternoon. Then was developed a. feeling1 of depression i'.xxe largely to the fact that .-ere were fev, if any, supporting orders In" the market, and a sharp reaction took place, in which "Wheeling & Iake Urie preferred, the &ran- - ers, Oregon Improvement, Western Union, Ijuisvil'e & Nashville and Cnieago Gas were most prominent. Aft3r delivery hour a slight rally took place, which was mostly lost in the final trading, and the market closed weak. P., C, C. & St. I preferred is down PJ4. like Shore 1U. lullman and liurllngten & Quincy 1. Some few shares show gains on the day. The bond market was gen3rally weak throughout the day on a decreased volume of business, the total transactions being on'.y $1.,2 ,0. Government bonds were strong. State bonds were dull.

American readers of English novels are so accustomed to fox-hunting episodes that they may enjoy learning something more of the sport than is giver, them In fiction. It is on this theory, presumably, that Harper's Magazine offers a descriptive chapter on the subject of riding to hounds. In it are given full details of the sport, descriptions of the best estates for hunting, of the dogs used, and of the intense excitement that follows the sight of a fox breaking from cover.

DAY FOR THE BULLS
WHEAT MADE A SPURT AT THE CLOSE, ADVANCING 7-Sc. Corn Took Its Cue from Whent nnd Added 1 3-8c to the Price of May Oats and Pork Also Gained. CHICAGO. Sept. 6. Wheat suddenly recovered from its tired feeling near the close to-day, and -with good buying on the spurt finished "c higher for December. The other markets sympathized and corn closed l'sc higher for May. September oats gained ?sc and provisions closed slightly higher all around. It was a dull day at the start in the wheat pit, as it was also in all the other speculative crowds. Nothing especially new or striking occurred during the forenoon, and consequently the speculators had ample time to thrash over the old straw. The possibilities in the direction of substituting wheat for corn to stock was about ' the only thing that kept the price from dropping off in view of the almost total cessation of trading during what is generally the busiest time of the day. There was a spurt of activity on it becoming known that a .jvell-known crop expert, who has given his particular (attention to the condition of the Northwestern spring wheat ?rop, estimated the total yield of the three States of North Dakota. South Dakota and Minnesota jat not to exceed 60,000,000 bushels, basing his estimate on the actual thrashing returns. A tone of confidence quickly supplanted the early feeling of uncertainty and the price of December, which had been confined all forenoon to a range of from 66?rc to 57c, rose with considerable vim in the trading to 57c, and spurted at the clofie to 57c. The buying near the close was heavy, J. C. Schwartz being credited with taking 730,000 bushels and other traders buying liberally. To-day it was corn that took its cue from wheat. Some of the big local shorts who have for a week made such a poor attempt at manufacturing a bear market out of sorely mangled crop reports svere the best buyers to-day. The market was exceedingly lull until after 12 o'clock, but it then became quite active. It was at no time other than v-iry firm, and toward the close it' became excitedly strong. September, from 57c, sold off to 50c, but afterward rose to and closed at 58ic. May kept very close to 53c until within an hour of the close, when It roae in quick jumps until as high as 66VsC, and it closed at 56c. Receipts were fairly liberal, numbering 345 cars and 44.000 bushels by canal. Cash oats met with a fair eale and were steady to a shade firmer. The stronger feeling extended Into the speculative crowd, wdth a good disposition to sell and buying orders about equal. Tne higher prices were principally influenced by the movement of the corn market. September, at the start, a as ',4c higher than it closed yesterday, at 30c, later 29c was touched, and at noon it was arain selling at 20c, closing at Soe. Provisions opened fairly firm, but the packers had more than enough for sale to supply the demand. The afternoon strength In grain caused those who had sold earlier to bid for pome of their fhort stuff, and the closing prices were substantially the highest of the day. The January deliveries are higher than on the day before to the extent of 10c in pork and .02c on lard and ribs. . Freights wrere firmer with a good demand for vessels at lVfec for wheat, 141bC for corn and l4c for oats to Buffalo.

CALIFORNIA FRUITS. f Londoners Can !Vorv Enjoy Them Fourteen Duys from the Tree. Washington Special to Chicago Record. A new enterprise which will be watched with interest is the shipment of fresh fruit by the tralnload to London. Two cargoes have alreadj gone and the third will be carried by the steamer Paris, which sills on Wednesday for Southampton. A train of sixteen refrigerator cars, carrying 45.000 packages of pears, plums, peache.v grapes, and other fruit, left California list Monday morning and will reach New York on Tuesday If nothing happ.'ns. The cirs will be switched alongside the steamer on the dock of the American line and the fruit will be transferred with the slighfsc exposure possible to the great ret rigeraiincompartments of the Paris, where it v;!,l b; stowed away until its arrival at Southampton. Thn a special train of refrigerator cars will be waltlny and the next morning the fruit will appear on the breakfast tables In London, fourteen days from the tree. But by maintaining an even temperature it can be almost perfectly preserved, and the wastage on the first two cargoes is said to have been less than is usual with that delivered In Nev York. That is probably due to the fact that greater care vas tiken in selecting and packing the London shipment. But the experiment is a success. It has been demonstrate that California can furnish Covent Garden market with fruit just a well as th isle of Jersey and at prWs that admit of profitable competition. The shipments will now be a regular thing and all throe of the steamers of the American line will h?.ve tralnloads of Clifrnia fruits down to see them off on Wednesday of e?ch week. It has long been the practice for the stewards of these and other steamers to take on enough oysters, fruit and other perisable food at New York to lat the entire voyage, and people cornin? th'.s way- often wonder where thoysters rami from that they ate off t half sh?l! every dav at dinner and tc lobster- and sot-shP crabs, which tast? r.s fresh pi if thy were eaten in Fulton market. The refrigerators of th ship are kent st a. temperature that arrests decay and the oysters. lob?ters and crabs are tp.kcii or; illve an 1 packed in sea weed, over wh!ch buckets of salt water are thrown evrry morning. Some years ago an attemnt was made to ship fruit acro?s the sea, but it was abandoned bee? use of the excessive freight r?tc and the graat waste re. but 'tv 'thn It has been discovered that fruit does not require a crM hut an even temperature p.ni th American steamshln lin has rrr.da contrpcs with the fruit growers by which thev agree to land the fruit In Londrn for $700 a car. which is about 60 cents a basket for pears, peche or grapes. Th nev. steamer now building at Cramps yr-rd for this Hn will be especially fitted un for the fruit business, and th forr'rn lines wi!l undoubtedly fall Into the trade as goon a It proves profitable.
