New York Stocks Being Shunned by the Large Speculators. Transactions on 'Change Feverish and Unsettled Indianapolis Cereals Dull and Not Wanted.

Speculation on the New York Stock Exchange, yesterday, was of a character to demonstrate very clearly that only the small trading element is In the market. Dullness was the feature from opening to close, and the few movements originate In either side of the acount were Bluggish, and without importance as Incatlnff any lasting effect on values. It was a halting market and Irregular, too slow of pulsation to be feverish, but with that unsettled tone which on active speculation, might precede a marked change in prices, but which, In the torpid condition of the market, meant nothing more than that traders were looking for a lead. But nothing came to disturb the quiet of the situation. Suzar was pretty strongly held all day. At the opening the general market was Irregular, and up to noon was heavy on light volume of business. During the afternoon the temper of the speculation was firmer, and a gradual Improvement eet in, the best prices of the day being made In the late trading. The market closed strong, at or near the highest figures The bond market was quite as unsettled a3 the share speculation. Government bonds were firn and State bonds were dull.

American Agriculturist. Young farm stock, whether intended for the slaughter or to be retained upon the farm, should be Kept growing continually until nearly, if not fully, the average size Is attained. Keep the animals In good pasture during the summer and during the usual droughts of early autumn. If an extra growth of corn fodder to be used as a daily feed Is not attainable, then a feed of grain should be given at least once a day. luring the cold, stormy daj-s that prevail before stock finally go into winter quarters the grain feed should be maintained, and when brought to the yard warm, comfortable shelter shoull be provided. Do not practice the foolish policy of attempting to see how cheaply one can winter stock that there may be more grain and hay to rell in the spring. On the contrary, give them the best of fodder, if there be a choice. This need not necessarily be dealt out In large quantities, but in amounts that will be eaten up cleanly previous to the next feeding. A quart of ground leed fed dally to a calf or colt, or a small handful to each lamb, will greatly stimulate growth and prove a good rinancial Investment for the stock raiser. Bloat In Cuttle. A correspondent of .Hoard's Dairyman glve3 the following remedy for bloat in cattle: When an animal Is attacked with bloat, the best, quickest, ijure3t, one may say Infallible, remedy Is a stick about eighteen Inches long and as thick as one's wrist. When n cow is attacked, she should Immediately be put Into the stanchion, or tied up so that she can be handled. The stick Is then forced crosswise Into her mouth. It is kept in its place, like a bit In a horse's mouth, by u cord attached to one end of the stick ani passed over the neck just behind the horns and fastened to the other end. Th cow will immediately begin to Etraggle with the tounge to get rid of the stick and simultaneously will begin to throw the wind up from the stomach. In ten to fifteen minutes the animal will be well. Before using this remedy, we lost many cattle from bloat. Now none arc lost. Drones live a shorter time than workers, kept in a queenless hive they may live three or four months. Being useless, except for mating purposes. th; workers soon get rid of them. It is supposed that when their usefulness is at on end they are driven out to perish, but it may be that they live out their allotted time and in the throea of death' the workers t3.ke them out to die. A bulletin from the New York experiment station ghts dehorning experiments which show that for ftUlency, cheapness and easy of application, stick caustic potash can be eafely recommended for preventing th2 growth of horn:; and that the earlier in the life of tha :af the application 13 made the better.

CHICAGO WHEAT DOWN

December Future Breaks Below G9c, and Closes at G8 7-8c. Corn in Gcod Bequest and Holds Stron rr at Higher Prices, with Provisions Also Going Up. CHICAGO, Oct S. The seemingly tallsmanlc figure, Oc, wa3 broken . down by wheat to-day, chiefly on sick cables and light exports. In addition, a larger total that any previous day on this crop was' made by the total receipts at primary Western markets. Corn and oats were firm and gained about Uc for the active deliveries. Provisions made another moderate advance on a small business. Wheat, at the opening, wa3 weaker and ViQKc lower, then advanced ic, but again eased off, prlce3 declining c, held steadier, and the closing was c lower than yesterday. The lower opening was attributed to lower English cables, and influenced some by the weather, which was favorable for seeding. But there was fair Inqu!ryt and not much wheat being on sale, the market responded to the buying, which was largely to cover shorts, and prices wero advanced to the top range. Then followed an easier feeling, due to increased offerings, and prices dropped to the Inside range. Initial trades in corn were at HSUc advance and, under a good demand, principally from shorts, sold up USlfcc more. The continued wot weather ,and talk by receivers of a falling off In the movement was the chief cause of the advance. The nearby futures were in especially good request, shippers being active buyers. After the early advance the price 'sagged back c, partly in sympathy with wheat, but rallied afterwards, ruled steady and closed with Vfii-hzC gain. It i3 reported that as much as 3,000.000 bushels capacity has been chartered and will be shipped this week If vessels arrive In time. There was only a light trade and a steady feeling In oats. 'Prices had a ?sC range and the close was at Uc advance for the day. Small receipt of hogs and extremely small stocks of manufactured goods were considered grounds for higher prices for provisions. Packers were good supporters of prices for January, but on attempting to sell out some on the advance there was no apparent demand from outsiders, and prices slid off easily again. January pork closed 5c higher. Lard for October is .13c higher, and January .C5c higher. Ribs gained . .02c for October. January, after an early advance of about .10c, sold off and closed the same as on the previous afternoon. The demand for vesel room was fair and the market easy at 2Uc for wheat and 2c for corn to Buffalo. Estimated receipts for to-morrow are: iVheat, 1C5 cars; corn, 440 cars: pats, 240 cars; hog3, 20,000. The leadingVfutures ranged as follows:

NEW YORK, Oct. 3. The dry-goods market has changed In no Important respect. There is a very fair demand for goods through the malls. If anything, the resident buyers are less aggres3ive. Prices rule about steady for the more staple kinds of goods, with some varieties positively strong -cn hurry orders, which shows a destitution of supplies in the interior. Brown sheetings command full prices on a prompt demand. Drills are Fcarce and wanted. Bleached shirtings sell well, and the more fancy kinds of cotton goods at least hold their own. Prints and printed fabrics rule steady, with a fair demand, and some difficulty in securing certain tickets, owing to the uneven condition of assortments. Fall River reports weakness for printing cloths, while ginghams and woven fabrics are In fair demand at steady values. Dress goods and woolens have an average trade, with prices somewhat Irregular, and demand mainly for staples and the cheaper kind of fan cies; low-grade goods are neglected. Clothing woolens are dull, especially for heavyweights. Foreign dry goods show subsiding activity, without much variation In prices. j OIL NEW YORK, Oct. 3. Petroleum strong and fairly active.

A Useful nsd Interesting Exhibit of the Day Nursery Sjrtsem. Ner York Sun. When the idea of baring s creche or day nursery exhibit in the Children's lluildlng at the world's fair was lirst suggested to the board of women managers, of New York State, by Miss Love, of llutl'alo, and adopted, it met with opposition from persons interested in philanthropic work all over tho country. It was said that many foundliutrs would be left there, that an active exhibit was impracticable, and that the nursery work itself would be lnjnred, not Helped, by a poor showiug of its methods. Some said that there would not be twenty children left to be cared for each day; others, that a thousand mothers would apply daily. In spite of opposition. Miss Love and Mrs. Arthur M. Dodge, of New York, determined to try it. and make it not only an exhibit of the day nursery system, bat a chanty to mothers and children visiting the exposition. The result has folly met their expectations, as many mothers all over the country can testify, and they hope it will be the means of startinn day nurseries in several of the largo cities where they re much needed. Few of the Western cities have even one. where several would do pood. New York, with eighteen in operation, has not enough for the growing population. Day nurseries are for the benefit of poor women who go out to work by the day, and aro intended not only to take care of the children pbysicullv but morally as well. Their bodies aro kept clean, their health cared for. and their minds trained in tho kindergarten. The same children come often, and learn to love the nursery sometimes better than thtir homes consequently it takes little care to make them contented. In the nursery exhibit the children aro changed each day, end are usually homesick, so that it has been difficult to make them comfortable and happy, and at the same time carry out the rules of a day nursery; but in most cases this has been accomplished. It is not possible to carry oat tho regulations regarding change of clothes and baths, which are necessary among children of the very poor. Tho rules of diet, sleep, hours of meals and kindergarten class have been enforced so far as has been possible with transient children. The exhibit has been nnder two managements. For the first three months of the exposition tho methods of tho "Fitch Creche and Training School for Nursery Maids" of Bullalohave been shown under the supervision of Miss Love, with Mrs. Harris in charge as matron. During the last three months the day nurseries of New York city and tttate, with the first training eehool for nursery maids connected with the iiabies' Hospital have been represser! ted nnder tho supervision of Mrs. Dodjze, with Miss Hall, of Virginia Day Nursery, as matron. Until August the number of children admitted was not larce. owing to the small atteudancoat the fair; butsince thecrowds have increased, hundreds havo been turned away for lac it of room, the corps of assistants increased, and the patience and strength of tho nurses taxed to the utmost. The feiUHll sum charued 25 rents pays for tho food of the children, tho itoard of Women Managers of New York State bearing the chief expenses. The system of checking the children (which was tho only method safe with such numbers) has led to some ridicule and much misunderstanding as to the object ot the nursery, bat those who planned ami carried out the exhibit hope that real good has been accomplished. The present experiment has proved that an active day nursery lu connection with expositions is sot an inposaibihty. At the Farisx position, in the city where the lirst creches were started, the exhibit was only a silent one. nnd it is an interesting fact that during the Paris Exposition nearly a thousand children were abandoned on the grounds, while only three have been forsaken in tho day nursery'exhibit at Chicago, and all of those on the openlna day. The interest of the public in this exhibit is increasing. Thero is always a crowd in front of the windows looking into tho nursery rooms. Of all the exhibits which New York State has gent to the exposition not one has created more interest, accomplished more good, or brought more credit. Where' Jonh Jump? New York Dally Amrrlca. Of all the ollico seekers of really uniqne names who have hovered around Washington more or less since the 4th of March all but Joshua Jump, of Terra Haute.have been accounted for. Pod Dihtmike has gone back to his mountain homo in Tennesiro disconsolate, if not broken-hearted. Dink liotts is pursuing the even tenor of his way down m ,Uawgy" and reliectiug upon the uncratcfulness of repnblics. Potsdam Stanhope Sams has thrown political ambition to the wind and toured on all politicians with a "pull," especially those who promised him so much and procured for him nothing, lint what has become of the Hon. Joshua Jump? Haa he been "slated." or been barred nut, or is ho ?.till hanging on to the ragged end of hope? It is poetiblo that as Mr. Jump is one of bonator Voorhees's constituents his surces depends aomewhat upon whether Mr. Voorhees gets a vote on tho repeal bill this year or next. It is possible, but it won't do to Jump at conclusions. . ic B i . i. .. llow Many Widows? Toledo Il!a!e.
