able falling through of the much-talked-
of new cable company. 1t was stated that
that the company had been unable to pro-
cure the necessary funds to carry on the
work. The Wizards were strong on buv-
ing by inside parties. The feature of the
day was the strength exhibited by the
Union Pacific. The stock wa well held,
and did not participate in the weakness to
any marked extent. When the market
turned in the afternoon the stock moved
up easily to S75, which is l per cent above
last nights closing; shares brought $500
S6lGS7a. The weakness in Southwestern
was siue to h reported danger to cotton
and tobacco, the bears on stocks talking of
a cotton crop of 100000 bales this year.
Another reason given Tor the decline in
Gould shares is that a large block of Texas
Pacific was ordered sold to-day, and the
bears took advantage of the order to ham,
mer shares.
The Erening Post says: "There were
sales to-day of over 1000 shares of Jersey
Central and Northern Pacific preferred,
seller sixty days, at prices to 2 per cent.
below h regular market. Fluctuations
in prices from day to day are now entirely
effected by the raids of the bears. There
are only a few stocks that seem to be sus-
tanned by supporting orders, and all 9TH
ers are depressed with comparative ease
when attacked, but they also seem to react
with a significant promptitude that keeps
the bears uneasy. There is a very large
short interest out, which is being increased
daily. 1t was remarked that the bear
crowd was larger this forenoont than before
for several months" Closing quotations

Special TO the Appeal
ST. LOUIS, October 9.-This market ex-
perienced quite an improvement in corn,
wheat and oats, but all efforts to revive
the provision market failed, except in
keeping pork up to yesterdays values.
Corn opened with an effort to drop the
traction from yesterdays closing prices,
but all such bids were rejected, holders
standing firm until &c advance was real
lied, about noon. After that hou1 trans
actions are reported with ic off, and the
market closed at 45sc for cash, 40Bc for
year, and 43c for November, &c gained for
spots, and &c each for year and November.
Wheat was also the object OF an effort
toward depression at the opening, but
holders refused to concede the dropping
of the fraction from yesterdays closing
value until about noon when trans
actions were reported at 81, but
within the same hour 81 OF was realized.
After noona little weakening of the market
brought values down to 81 O04, on which
it closed for cash, 81 00i for the year, and
81 Oh for Novenber-gains Of fc on spot

GENERAL.

THE Evansville Journal thinks that it
has been very clearly proven since the
great war, Just ended, that passenger rates
are entirely too high and it is generally
believed that at no distant day railroad
management will take the same view of
the matter and rates will be brought down
TO a basis that will enable a poor man to
take a trip TO Chicago and return without
saving money months beforehand.
CHIEF ENGrNEER FRENCH has completed
the survey Of the proposed Arkansas
Western railway, which is to be 50 miles

Another Chance 10 Kick.

CHICAGO, October 9.-The fact is pub
lished here that Commissioner Fink has
announced to the Eastern trunk lines his
award Of percentages of eastward-bound
live stock. The percentages as given are
as follows: Lake Shore, 2G; Michigan
Central, Il; Fort Wayne, Is; Panhandle,
s; Grand Trunk, II; Nickel Plate, 81;
Baltimore and Ohio, 81; Chicago and
Atlantic, IL. BY this arrangement the
Vanderbilt roads and Fort Wayne are the
heaviest sufferers from the old schedule,
in which the Panhandle and Chicago and
the Atlantic were not represented as indie
pendent lines. The papers here assert
that there is the usual dissatisfaction, and
predict II vigorous protest from those
roads, which have lost a share of their
percentages to accommodate new rivals.

The War on Cotton Rates From Little
Rock.


Little Rock Gazette, 9TH: The cut in
the freight rates on cotton to Northern and
Eastern points made by the Arkansas
Valley route and the (ParamOre) Texas
and st. Louis railroad combination caused
yesterday to be a field day among the cot
ton mcn of this city. 1t wa an unexpect-
ell stroke OF good fortune to shippers, and
last night saw nearly every bale in Little
Rock consigned for the East over one road
or the other. The cut made by the COM
bination, rs shown by the Gazette yester-
day, was 10 cents per 100 pounds to all
points. Yesterday both the Iron Noun
tain and the Memphis roads met the rate
and the skirmishing was lively. Last
night Il look over the battlefield showed
that the combination had secured 43C
bales, OF which 1870 is to be shipped to.

200O and 5000, and the Iron Mountain the
remainder.
