At New Tork yesterday money on call was firmer at i'iVi per cent. Prime mercantile paper, 3?i!i ier cent. Hterllng exchange was firm, with actual business in bankers' bills at f4.f43i for demand and KSIHIM.SIU for f,x,y days; posted rates, f4.82f? J4.S21, and f4.S604.Si!i; commercial bills, 14.S0'j 4?4.8J'i. Kilver certificates were 63463c; bar fiiver, 43ic: Mexican dollars, . 30c. At London bar silver was 20id an ounce. "Wall street was considerably puzzled by the resumption yesterday cf aggressive tactic for the advance after the bull campaign, projected on Monday, had seemed. Tuesday, to be abandoned. But while the motive of the buoyant rl?e was difficult to discern, the force and the proportions of it were sufficiently impressive to take Ii courage out of the bear party and to Induce heavy covering all around. The small bears, who had resumed operations on the decline Tuesday, were the first to fall victims to the maneuver of the bulls, who, however, gave Indication of being after larger game, and pursued their advantage with great confidence and abounding resources. They drove some longstanding shorts to cover and ultimately effected a buojant rise In the whole market, which closed strong and active at the highest level of the day and at net gains ranging from one to over two points for a large number of active stocks. Opealng declines in a number of stocks seemed only to afford the better vantage ground for the advance, which was 'thereby made the more impressive. The acute depression manifested by a few Industrial stocks' waa Ineffective in deterring the bulls from the manipulation in the market. Inquiry of commission houses falls to find any trace of buying orders frora outside sources, and opinion i agreed that the day's movement was practically in professional hands. A lOAg persisting bull Interest is supposed 10 have been tornd by seme of the powerful operators, who have recently returned to the street, for a campaign a?aimt the shorts. Stocks which have recently been the special target for bar attack reflected the most urgent demand. Missouri Pacific, which . is a leader of this class, showed gathering strength during the day in connection with Tuesday's annual meeting of the stockholders of the t. Louis & Southwestern, the action of which is supposed to foreshadow mere intimate relations between the Iron Mountain and Southwestern railways. From the early low point Missouri Pacific was carried up 3' per cent. Rurlington also reflected the .demands of a large outstanding short interest, and was marked uj an extreme 2t. Baltimore & Chio. Northern Pacific and Louisville were also prominent in this cla?s, but the movement gathered force and breadth, and ultimately spread "through the whole list. The most buovant period of the market wan due to the circulation of a rumor that President Mitchell, of the Mine Workers Union, had called the coal strike off, which completed the discomfiture of the Bhorts' Evt-n Tennessee Coal, which had sold down 3li cn the fear that no dividend would be declared at to-day's metlnr, rallied four points, and Sugar, which had fallen 2" on account of the demoralised condition and the iep cutting in price In the refined sugar market, rallied l. The continued weakness of sterling exchange was used by the bulls as an argument for an advance in stocks, on the ground that imports of geld could not long be deferred. A further easing cf discount rates In Rerltn nave strength to the argument, but in Londcn there was a vizr.lflcant hardening of discount rates on the expectation that the Hank of Lns'.and will raise Its oCiclal rate to-day. The local market for time ioans continued firm. The rat- for call loans ma advanced frtm 2 to 2'i per cent, with the maximum uncharged at 2i per cent. ' Bond were not much affected by the activity In stocks, and price vhangfs were mixed. Total sales at par value were fjso.ono. United States bond were unchanged In the bid rrlce. Fallowing are the day's share sales and the dosing Did quotations: Stocks.

A Healthy Vol time of Trade In Progress, with Steady Price the Rale. A call at the various markets yesterday developed few new features. There seems to be a healthy volume of buslnjess, with prices, as a rule, firm and steady, roultry. eggs and butter are In active request at prices quoted. Choice butter Is scarce. Receipts of eggs are li;;ht, but Improving in quality. Wholesale nrrocers are having: an excellent trade, and prices rule unusually steady on staple goods. In dry goods, stronger prices are the feature and an active tuslness is in progress. Traveling salesmen take a cheerful vlw of the outlook for a good fall and winter business, unless political results change the present poller of the government f S to finances. Retail grocers all over the country are enjoying the best trade in years, and bills were never before so well paid up, so that, with small profits, there is money to the wholesale merchants, as but few bad debts are made. The New York sugar market is demoralized. The American Company, early In the day, reduced Its prices for refined 15 points. Arbuckle Brothers reduced their list prices 23 points for fine granulated. This is S points under the American and other refiners, and it is rumored that ether Independent refiners are making reductions of 25 points. Later in the day the American Company made another cut of 23 points, matting 40 in all. Arbuckle Brothers made another cut to 5.75c and withdrew all guarantees. The independent refiners also cut the price to 3.73o. This leaves the price of the American Company 5 points below that of other companies. The local grain market shows more activity. Receipts are improving and for all cereals there is a ready market at the following range of prices, as reported by the secretary of the Board of Trade: Wheat No. 2 red, 77c; No. 2 red, on milling freight, 77c; No. 3 red.

WHEAT WAS IRREGULAR
HIT CLOSED STHt AT A SIDSTAXTIAL ADVAXt'E. Weak I'ndertone In Corn with the Cloe Vn eh n used Bnle in Provisions) on Small Available Stocks. CHICAGO, Oct. 3. Wheat was irregular, but closed 6trong, November tiruc higher. .orn closed unchanged and oats 4c up. Provisions closed 74010c to 274c higher. Wheat was as inconstant and tickle as a sum mer breeze, weak and strong by fits and starts. Till near the end of the session trading was largely of a local character, with scalpers on the vergo of nervous prostration from trying tr keep on th right side of shifting sentiment. Liverpool did not reflect the decline here yester day,, and th Northwest still had bad weather. With these considerations to start with, No vember opened 44c higher, at 77415774c. On lock of outside support, the market dropped to 7(i4c. Liverpool showed greater firmness later and shorts took back earlier stuff, causing a rally to 774c The market was not big enough to stand the proflt-taklng which met this bulge and asaln weakness appeared, November drop ping to 774c. At this point strong talk of cash business from the Northwest, buying by Interests of that section in this market, and indications that shipping business here would soon pick up, caused a sharp rally near the end. November Jumped rapidly to 774c and closed strong, V34c over j-esterday, at 774ö"4c New York reported 28 Ioad3 taken for export. Clearances, In wheat and flour, were equal to 4O0.0C0 bu, and local cash pales footed up to 2i,000 bu. Trimary receipts aggregated 1,073,000 bu, compared with 1,371.000 bu last year. Min neapolis and Duluth reported 427 cars, against 215 last week and 926 a year ago. A Duluth au thority declared present receipts to be the probable maximum of the movement of this crop m the Northwest. Local receipts were 163 cars, 4 of contract grade. Corn was moderately active and firm, une opening was a shade easier, because of an improvement in the weather West, giving promise of a larger movement before the end of the month. Country acceptances to last night's bl-J. however, were light, and from this the market derived considerable of its firmness. The seaboard reported an excellent demand for cash, tut the demand was not apparent here, unless It was dono outside the usual channels. The market scored a good advance on buying by short.-?, but lost It on profit-taking. November sold between 374c and 3Sc, and closed uncnanged at 374c. Receipts were 344 cars. Oats continued in their course of doing noth ing worthy of special mention, but In n small and modest way followed the fluctuations of wheat. November sold between 224c and 224c and closed 4c higher, at 224c. Receipts were 133 cars. The small stocks and buying by packers, both of which created a scare among shorts, gave a strong provision market. January pork sold between $U.77'-2 and $12.00, and closed 27Vc over yesterday, at 112.024; January lard between S6.90 and 17.074, closing 74&10c higher, at J7.074. and January ribs between JS.32Vi and 6.42s. with the close 12'i-c better, at $6.42',i.

Tc the Editor of the Indianapolis Journal: Soon after the close of the war several northern churches established seminaries in the South for the theological training of colored preachers. As all could not attend these there sprang up theological de bating clubs, in which dark passages of Scripture were discussed and light sought upon them. At one of these a venerable brother arose and said: "Mr. Moderator, I want some one to explain the Scripture which says, 'The stars in their course fought against Sisera, What stars were they?" "Shootin stars, of course," answered one brother. "But what did they fight with?" asked the Inquirer. "Bows and arrows, of course. You read of the bow In the cloud, the rainbow, I suppose." answered the instructor. "Brothers, you are both wrong," interposed the Moderator, rising. "That is what we call a figure of speech, and means that the fates were against Sisera. He was predistinated and foreordained to be killed, and the very place of refuge he had sought was the place of his death, and a woman that promised protection was the Immediate instrument. One is in hard luck when the stars In their course fight against him. I am reminded of the fate of Sisera by the predicament Mr. Bryan is in. Even the Associated Press in its course has turned to fighting against him, though used to befriend him.

Cattle Receipts. 750; shipments non-:. There is qvdte a decrease to report in th marketing of cattle, but the supplies continue in excess of the demand. In the ster line the market opened very dull, with the bidding decidedly lower, and early buyers indicated that their orders were limited. Finally a few sales were male at about 10c lower rrices, but at a late hour a large proportion of the supply had not changed hands. Best cows and heifers sold usually at about steady prices, but all other grades of cattle, including stockers and feeders, were badly neglected, and quite a number remained unsold.

UNION STOCKYARDS, INDIANAPOLIS, Oct. 3. Nearly 200 head of horses were offered in the regular sale of Blair, Baker & Walter, which, ordinarily, would not be considered a liberal supply, but with the small attendance of buyers it was evident from the start that sales men would havemueh difficulty in effecting n clearance, except at reduced prices. The bidding at the start was sluggish, and it took some time to establish a trading basis, but finally th? offerings were changing hands slowly at whit salesmen considered fully 115 per head lower prices than a week ago. At the decline there was no really urgent competition, but a good clearance was finally made. Good chunks an! heavy horses were reported at 110OÖ135, coach horses from 1115 to 1150, and workers and, drivers from ?50 to 1110. Among the shippers to-day were J. J.
