and the reprehensible custom of sitting fire
to the woods and old fields in order to clear
the way for fresh grass for cattle, furnish
ed the sparks; and, in consequence, from
every county OF the state came,aec0unts of
forests swept by the flames, valuable tenc-
ing destroyed, and residences and valuable
farm produce, falling prey to the deyour-
ing element. ibis is sad disaster to

Commercial.
There was no improvement noticeable In
the local merchandise markets to-day. Busl-
ness moves sluggishly in all lines. Receipts OF
wheat are liberal, and offerings of spot and
cary delivery are large, meeting an active
milling and shipping demand Tor
all wheat that viii grade. Receipts
from illinois are in bad condition, damp ana
hot The market is becoming glutted with re
jected and understandable, and will sell
lower. The market for corn Is quiet but
strong, and values are shade higher. The Of
ferings are small and the bulk of the receipts,
chiefly Illinois product, is hot and sour. oats
are scarce and nominal. Provisions are easy
and a little weaker, but generally holders are
not pressing stocks at quotations. The demand
for flour is light and there is a tendency toward
easier prices. Groceries are quiet but all kinds
of staple goods are sold firm. Country produce
is weak and the dema I'd is light.
The following were the receipts and ship
ments as reported to the board OF trade:
