MARKETS ON WEDNESDAY.

QUOTATIONS ON INDIANAPOLIS AND CHICAGO LIVE STOCK.

Broken* Gonip—'Whewt* Cora. Oato and Provision* — Speculative Notes—Foreign Crops—Trade Comments—Local Prices.

The wheat market to-day had a very tlred and languid look. Cables were easier. Receipts In the Northwest were large, exceeding the corresponding day last year. The opening was under yesterday's close. There was continuous selling by* holders moat of the day, the buyers of yesterday disposing of their holdings. These depressing Influences took prices down 1c further. December opening at 68Hc and selling to 67%c and closing at <57*©«714c. The exports were ttLOOO bushels. New York reported ten boat-loads sold on the break for export account At the close there was a feeble rally of %c, but the tone of the market was weak from start to finish. The late weakness attributed to disquieting rumors of financial troubles abroad, however, lacked confirmation. It must be borne in mind that there has been quite a good advance in wheat during September, that this advance has stimulated sales and shipments from first bands In the Northwest, thtft this is the season of the year wh^n the movement in tail quarter is the largest. Under these conditions, with speculation narrow and bus.ness in a waiting attitude, reactions are natural, even if the position is strong. It never gets so strong that breaks do not follow advances. Corn started where It left off yesterday, but lost %c for the day. Its strength seems to be borrowed ffom wheat, and when toe latter declines, corm follows. Oats was relatively weaker than corn, making a greater decline. Provisions, were stronger, holding the - ce to the close, under buying oy inparties. and Provision Notes. '•v By O. D.

STOCKS, MONEY AND BONDS. The Market Fairly Steady and Active—The Quotations.^ New York, October 7.—Trading on the Stock Exchange was in moderate volume at the outset, and slightly lower prices ruled, partly in sympathy with the reaction In the foreign market. Tobacco was the feature of the limited dealings up to 11 o’clock, and under good buying advanced 1% per cent to 68. Considerable short lines have been covered In this specialty of late, which is the primary cause of the recent marked strength. The buoyancy of this stock checked the selling movement in the general list, and some fractional recoveries were scored, with Manhattan most prominent. Leather preferred was taken in hand after 11 o’clock by prominent Interests and marked up 1% per cent. In connection with the reported continued Improving trade conditions. The general market also ruled higher on the announcement of the renewal of gold Imports, but the improvements were not maintained. Profit-taking and some bear pressure against some of the specialties caused & slight reaction toward noon. The bond market was easier In tone, but extremely dull. The sales to noon were 62,000 shares. / Money. Money on call very firm at 5®6 per cent.

A conference was held at English’s this morning by the Populist State candidates in town, and It was decided that, come what would, the State ticket will not be withdrawn from the field. There were present at the meeting, Thomas M. Wadsworth, candidate for Governor; Silas M. Holcombe, candidate for Secretary of State; Fred Robinson, candidate for Treasurer of State; Nathan M. Jennings, candidate for Auditor of State, and Arnold J. Padgett, candidate for appellate Judge in the First Judicial district. The matter was argued at length, and when It w’as found that withdrawal would not be considered, Mr. Padgett Informed the other candidates that he would not accept the nomination, and that his name would not be on the ticket. Silas M. Holcombe said this morning that the certification of the nominations would be mede in a day or two. He has the document ready for the signatures of Chairman Motsinger and the secretary of the convention. It is probable the certificate will be filed to-morrow. Mr. Holcombe was asked about the electoral ticket, but he said the State candidates have nothing to do with that, and that the electors and the State committee would be allowed to fight that out as they please. "We will make as good a campaign for the State ticket as we can,” said Mr. Holcombe, “and we have secured the promise of Chairman Rosqnheimer that he will not send out any speakers who favor a sacrifice of the party by fusing it with the Democrats. "We are In the field to stay. Rankin has dotie the party a great deal of harm by his . talk of a large per c^nt^of our voters throwing their strength to Bryan and Sewall, anyhow. These fellows declared for Bryan and Sewall before our own national convention met. They gave up everything then and left our party to Join the Democrats, so that they really have no right to attempt to dictate to middle-of-the-road people what we shall do.” Why He Resigned. Mr. Padgett was asked for his reasons for resigning. He said that he had protested against being made the nominee at the time of the convention, but had been overruled. His private affairs, he said, would prevent him from accepting the of

flee.

"You are said to have declared for Bryan and Sewall," was suggested. “That is not true,” he said. “I am for Bryan and Watson all the time.” Mr. Padgett haa been ardent for fusion on the electoral ticket, and aided in the maneuver to set aside the first set of electors announced, which were straightout middle-of-the-roaders, substituting a fusion ticket with ten Democrats and five Populists. He said thte morning that this would be the electoral ticket certified. The middle-of-the-roaders have, however, em ployed McCuliouxh & Spaan as counsel. They were in consultation with Mr. McCul lough this morning. It is believed that Chairman Motsinger, who a few days ago believed he had the promise of the Democratic managers that if he would refuse to sign the certificate of the middle-of-the-road electoral ticket. Miers, the sliver Democratic candidate in his district, the Second congressional, would be taken down and Motsinger, the Populist candidate, would be approved. This proxlse. It is now said, was either never given, or if given, had some string to.lt, with no meaning. A messenger waa sent to-day to see Motsinger and secure his signature to the certificate of the middle-of-the-road electoral ticket. Secretary Wallace Talks. Chairman Martin, of the Democratic State committee, accompanied Mr. Bryan on his trip to the north end of the State this morning, and could not te seen as to the progress of fusion. Mr. Wallace, secretary of the committee, said that so far as he knew, nothing more had been done, and he had not tbought that anything further would be done In that line. "We feel confident that the State will give its electoral vote to Bryan, as the situation now is,” said he this morning. “The great crowd.of yesterday* shows what a hold Bryan has on the people, and we expect his trip through the State to add much strength to the ticket. We are not making any claims as to majorities, but we are in excellent form to win,and I believe we will do so.” Roaenhelmer Will Slum. The conference of Populists In Chairman Roser.heimer’s rooms this morning held until a late luncheon hour and then adjourned to meet again at 2:30 o’clock this afternoon. The question before the conference [was fusion on the electoral t.cket and tile means to induce the Democrats to approve what the second set of electors announced. Chairman Rosenheimer said this afternopn that Mr. Shepard had been asked as to Rosenheimer’s right to sign the certificate of nomination of electors, and that he had been Informed that the certificate could legally be signed by the chairman of the State committee as well as by the chairman of ' a. He said the fusion used to the Democrats onday. RAILROAD SOUND MONEY CLUBS. M. E. Invalla, of the Big Four, Will Address Them On October 15.

CALL FROM POPULIST CANDIDATES. They Aak To See Bryan After He Hns Gone To Bed. After the closing eptech last night at Tomlinson Hall, Mr. Bryan askea to be relieved of further publ.c effort, as he was exhausted from the day’s work. He had been kept up until 1 o’clock the night before, had risen at 6 o’clock and must have some rest. The reception which had been announced was, therefore, abandoned, and Mr. Bryan retired. Mayor Taggart, to protect the candidate, denied admission to a number of delegations anxious to shake hands with Mr. Bryan. The only exception to the intention to refuse adm.ssion to callers was when five of the Populist State candidates were received. Mr. Bryan' had gone to bed, but M. C. Rankin, treasurer of the national Populist committee; A. j. Padgett and Chairman Rosenheimer had arranged with Chairman Martin and Allen W. Clark that the candidates could see Mr. Bryan in order that he m.ght use his persuasive powers upon them to induce them to withdraw the Pooulist State ticket. Mr. Bryan is reported to have said to his callers that he hoped they would not allow the des.re for office to stand in the way of a fusion of the forces that are contending for free sliver coinage. This has been accompl.shed, he said, In every other State in the Union where It was of importance except Indiana. He spoke of the Importance of the alliance of the parties which are fighting the gold standard. The conference was brief, the callers shook hands with Mr. Bryan and departed. Afterward they were closeted wits Chairman Martin for some minutes, and they were again told, it is said, in brusque

out pf the field. It is denied by Allen W. Clark that Mr. Bryan last night made any remarks intended to persuade the State candidates to withdraw In order to make way for a fusion. Mr. Clark also says that while the candidates attempted to see Mr. Martin after their meeting with Mr. Bryan, the State chairman did not put in an appearance and they failed to see him. Mr. Clark expressed the opinion, however, that the parties would yet effect a fusion by the withdrawal of the Populist State candidates.

THE PROHIBITION OUTLOOK. Petition For the National Ticket , Filed This Morning. The petition for the National, or broadgauge, Prohibition ticket was filed this morning with Governor Matthews and was olgeon-holed for action by the election commissioners at their next meeting. It includes a full set of electors and a full set of State officers, with the exception of candidates for the Appellate Court. The number of names attached is between 1,800 and 1,900. William F. Clark this morning stated that his estimate of the number of those who have hitherto voted the straight Prohibition electoral ticket but who will now vote for the Bryan eleciors, is 3,000. He said he did not underestimate the number. He estimated that the Bentley electors would rece.ve over 6,000 votes. He tbought that the majority of the followers of Levering, the opposition cand: l.i are gold advocates, but only a few of them, he says, will vo-f* for McKini o v. Those allowed to other than the party's electoral ticket will, he c ay3, vote the *:nrty State ticket. ,

The Republican Campaign. Chairman Gowdy said this morning that the Republican campaign Is daily increasing In vigor, "We have been receiving hundreds of suggestions,” he said, "that the campaign ought to be pushed cut in the country. In the meantime,‘the campaign has been going on in the country by school-house districts for three months. Up to next Saturday night the average number of speeches In each county will be about sixty, and no other campaign ever reached anything like It. We are following the lines laid down at the start, and are making the best possible campalgp of Education. I know It has Ijeen doing great good.” f Political Notes. The poll of Woodruff Place shows. It is said, that of tne ninety-five voters ninetyone are for McKinley and four for Bryan, ’he Republicans carried the town in 1892 y twelve votes. Senator Allen, the Nebraska Populist Senator, will speak at Tomlineon Hall next Saturday night. Smiley N. Chambers and Martin Hugg will speak at Indiana avenue and California street to-night, under auspices of the Overstreet Club. Jusl before Mr. Bryan’s speech on the court-house lawn last night, a drunken man, who was standing with a crowd on the roof of the shed which covers an entrance to the engine-room, tottered on the edge of the roof and said: “I hope during my remarks this evening”—just then the crowd pulled him down. A great rumber of boys from the Industrial Training School were near the Union station when Mr. Bryan arrived yesterday. One of these youngsters, who sat on his wheel as the procession started, thought It an opportune moment to give a shout for McKinley. He did so, and a man in the ranks carrying an umbrella struck him across the face, knocking him from the wheel. Another Industrial School boy, who is famous among his fellows as an athlete, saw a pickpocket trying to pursue his calling upon a countryman. The school boy knocked the thief down and pummeled him soundly. No one interfered, as the circumstances of the case were understood by the bystanders, who shouted encouragement to the pummeler. ■■■ ■ o — Tried To Rob a. Detective. Isaac A. Gorman is the diief of the detectives on the Pennsylvania lines west of Pittsburg, and lias the reputation of being a good thief-taker. Most crooks of importance he knows by sight and that’s what makes this story ail the with some picked men to guard the trains funnier. Mr. Gorman wag here yesterday on his road. 'He saw a Number of “good eople,” and told them that they must eep off the Pennsylvania trains. He did not propose, he said, to arrest them, but would just throw them under the wheels, or words to that effect. When Bryan was speaking In the State House yard Gorman was listening to h.m. Suddenly his arms went into the air, and he waa ^’boosted” through the crowd. He realized at once that a mob of pickpockets was trying to rob him and ne began striking right and left. He broke the “push,” but noi until he was jammed up against the buildjig and one of his hands bruised. Gorman took his watch, pocketbook and diamond pin to a safety deposit vault and left it there until the crowd broke.

Special to The Indianapolis News. Rushvllle, Ind., October 7.—The Central Union Telephone Company Is preparing to remove its toll station In this city and run its wires around town, owing to a difficulty with the City Council In the matter of a right-of-way through Rushvllle. The Central Union is putting up new copper wire telephone lines b ‘tween Indianapolis and CincinnaU. In coming to Rushvllle early last summer It was found that the company had Us lines in Rushvllle without a franchise, and rather than Incur the risk of having to remove the wires later, if they put them In without permission, they accordingly petitioned for a right-of-way. The home telephone company at once opposed the Central Union's petition for right-of-way, and succeeded in getUng a resolution through the City Council refusing the Central Union entrance Into the city, unless it agreed to connect with the local company. For the privilege of this connection the home company agreed to guarantee all tolls due from people patronizing the Central Union over its wire*, and further agreed to permit the Central Union to string its wires through Rushvilla on the co-operative company's poles. Finding its way blocked, the Central Union then prepared to carry out its threat of going around town. In this it was again defeated by the local company, .which succeeded in creating an opposition to the right-of-way across certain farms. Then followed further vain efforts with the City Council, until to-day the matter stands about as It did months ago. The reason, the Central Union managers assert, that they can not connect with these local companies throughout Indiana Is because the co-operative or mutual concerns, like the Rushvllle Co-operative Telephone Company, do not use a Bell telephone, and the Central Union claims it Is forced by contract to recognize none but the Bell. The Central Union Company announces to-day that it has secured a plan to get around Rushvllle, and will at once fill up the gap in its lines. Rushvllle people are skeptical about this. POLICEMAN SHOT AT ANDERSON. Officer Pritchard Wounded By n Negro From Indianapolis. Special to The Indianapolis News. Anderson, Ind., October 7.—This morning patrolmen Pritchard, McDlvitt, Rogers and Parish went to tjie Gould steel-works and arrested a cokned man, believed to be James Durham, wanted at Indianapolis for highway robbery. Next the police went to the home of Abraham Wood, colored, where It was reported Jesse Clutland was hiding. Clutland is also wanted at Indianapolis. Patrolman Pritchard entered the house after Wood had opened the door. Clutland was found in bed, and was told to get read yto go to jail. He obeyed, but Wood remonstrated, and soon his wife ordered the officers out of the house. Whi'e the officers were waiting for Clutland to dress. Wood slipped into another room, reappeared quickly with a shotgun, fired, and Pritchard’s arm was torn off at the elbow. Then Wood and Clutland fled, but were pursued and captured by two of the officers, while others carried Pritchard to a doctor's office. Later he was taken to ..he hospital. The negroes appear sullen. They are strangers here, but seem to know much about Indianapolis. Superintendent Colbert received a telegram from Anderson this morning, saying that William Durham, colored, had been arrested there and was held awaiting an officer from this city. ^ The superintendent says that Durham Is wanted here for highway robbery, committed six weeks ago in North Indianapolis. He and another man, It Is alleged, held up a man named John Rozier. AN INTERESTING DIVORCE CASE. A Venerable Citizen of Princeton Is the Unhappy Plaintiff. Special to The Indianapolis News. Evansvilla, October 7.—Wm. Jessop, one of the wealthiest citizens -of Princeton, Ind., married a woman who was very much ydunger than himself, February, 1895, and about a year later old Mr. Jessop applied for a divorce. Both had been married before, but while Jesaop's first wife had died, his new wife had been divorced from her first husband, with whom she lived only a short time. Mr. Jessop filed his suit for divorce in the Princeton court and it was then transferred to the local court. He alleges that he was obliged to submit to the most cruel and humiliating treatment, and that in fact his life was endangered more than once, his wife having attacked him at one time with a case-knife, and at another with a stove-hook. He cited half a dozen instances, in which she attacked him with one dangerous weapon or another. Jessop is very rich, and his wife seeks to obtain a large amount of ali-

mony.

The trial began to-day and will last several days. The plaintiff as well as the defendant appeared with an array of lawyers in court. Jessop is a very plain old man. His wife, who appears to be about twenty-five years of ege. Is a very

good-looking brunette.

To say that the trial is exciting does hardly Justice to the startling collection of testimony. It was stated among other things that Mrs. Jessop appeared one evening at the house of a neighbor with bipod on her face and had told dT a fight with the old man in which the husband had been worsted. At another time she exhibited a large knife, stating that she had /sharpened It on the stove lid and expected to cut the old fellow wide open. At still another time she had thrown a large bucket through a window at her husband, who was sleeping near the window. After one of their encounters, Jessop’s condition was such that he had to seek the assistance of a surgeon. Thus the testimony ran all day. From some of the testimony It appeared that the woman was very poor when she married the old man, and not only herself but also her aged mother looked to a life of plenty after her mar-

riage with Jessop. The 1

latter, however,

objected to part or the most of the household money, which he gave his wife, go-

ing to the mother.
