Saturday.
The leading produce 1,nrkets averaged less

sunshine. Outs were heavy, in react1on from
the excitement Of Friday. There was little
change III other breaG5tnfIs. but barley WIS

unusually dull. Thoro was IN advance IN prices
carly, but the delnnnd was not sufil-
ccnt to sustain it. and quotations weakened

The bids for cleaning the paved streets OF
the three divisions of the present dirt-accl-
mutations were opened yesterday morning
BY the Commission Of Public Works. There
were only six, and only one OF these was
anything like reasonable, and this was for
cleaning the streets OF the North Side at Sssa
mile. AIr. Waller said that he thought that
this bid would be accepted, and the work
over there commenced Mt once. So far as
the other districts were concerned. the
bids ranged from $50 a mile l1p,
the latter being the lowest for =
portion Of the West Side. The bridgeport
District would cost about So''77 mile to clean
uy u,ter the i,isiS handed in. Mr.. Waller
says that all these bids are too high. anu ttl;sl
he will be compelled to advertise over again.
The trouble WAS these people did not kn""
what they were estimating npon: lie dld hot
think that there W;tS rs much dirt upon Tue
streets as the contractors had inlaglnett. lie
found that the great difficulty lay IN not nav,
ing ,luttpng-%rnltnd fnr the street dirt. anu
the dredging firms had a monopoly OF the
scows to carry the dirt ont into the lake, al1c
wanted ST. All hour for each scow used by-
tie city. This, of COURSE, was eXoroitallt
and outrageous, and lie was cndea'ortng to
find some remedy for the evil.

Mr.. II. H. Keeler, the contractor
who is putting down the well on Bear
creek for Mr.. Cornwell, informs us
that he will start the drill some time
this week, and with good luck will fn-
ish in about four weeks. This is the
most important we'll in the county at
present, as it will settle the matter as
to the supposed belt connecting the
upper with the lower oil field, and will
open a vast amount of territory. The
progress of the we'll will be watched
with much interest by producers.
The Derrick gives the following ad-
ditional particulars concerning the
Blue Jay district; The p. & e. COM
pany expect to have their we'll on the
Cook lot completed iu time for the
celebration of the Fourth. This will
give the district southwest Of Blue Jay

be completed in about ten days if they
