showed little more strength in fancy cuts
of bacon. Eastern markets, however,
were easier, and favored buyers. The re-
ceipts of product were fair and shipments
quite large of all descriptions. There
was but slight shipping demand to day,
however. For the reasons before recount
ed business was extremely unsatisfactory
to holders, the feeling being almost pan
icky at times. Trading was moderately
active in pork, but almost exclusively
on speculative account, with the
more deferred deliveries attracting consid-
cradle attention. On the board prices re-
ceded 25@35c on the whole range, closing
comparatively steady, but in the afternoon
started downward again and lost 15@25c
from o'clock quotations. Only moder-
ate business was transacted in lard. The
offerings were rather free, but the inquiry
not particularly urgent. Prices shrunk
log 15o on the board, but ruled compare
lively steady when the decline was estab-
lished until the call, when they eased off
sc again. The shipping demand was
moderate in the way of filling small
orders. Short ribs sold about 10c lower,
ruling dull, both offerings and demand be-
ing light.
At the stock yards the arrivals of cattle
were again liberal, and among the receipts
were large number of choice range and
western steers. The market ranged fairly
active, and prices were without quotable
change since yesterday. Receipts of hogs
aggregated 1900, and the market opened
dull, weak and 5@1Oc lower for heavy
packing grades. Shipping grades were
weak and five cents lower. Light lots
commanded yesterdays prices generally.
There were quite number of hogs left in
the pens unsold at the close of the day.

traders and seemed to be without support.
There was good buying of Chicago,
Burlington & Quincy but outside Of this
stock nothing stood up. The heaviest
depreciation was in the Wizards. During
the last half hour the marke. was steadier,
and there was a fractional recovery
throughout the list. The tone of the mar
ket at the close was strong. The exchange
is full of bears, and it looks as if they
were OVERRIDING it. We should not be
surprised to see rally to. morrow If there
are no more failures. Lake Shore was
raided on report that the next dividend
will be red uced to " per cent.
Day & Field say of the situation: 'The
bears made unusual efforts to depress the
market to-day, and have met with less
than usual success. They circulated vague
rumors of large failures in the dry goods
trade and alarmed the banks and money
lenders. On investigation these reports
were but partially sustained, but they
served to demoralize the market and pre-
vented an advance which seemed probable
at the opening. The opening was strong,
especially in Willard stocks. There was
considerable buying for long account,
and some covering of shorts. The
bears tried at various times to depress the
market by selling special stocks. New
York Central & Lake shore suffered spec
tally in this way. The Villards received
less of this kind of attention than usual.
They were sold down at times but showed
considerable power of recovery. It was
intimated that some nnfavorable news
concerning item was expected from Cali
fornia, but on the whole the stocks were
pretty well taken care of, and closed high
er than last night. The bears are still the
stronger party in the market, but are
meeting more resistance, and while We
may not have quick advance we do n,
expect much further decline.

SENSIBLE VIEWS.

A Germ IN Gives His Opinions of the Labor
Probi4 M to the Senate Committee.
New YORK, Sept. 25.-Henry Bishof, a
German, was before the senate sub-com-
mittee to-day. He testified that the hours
of labor here were shorter than in Ger,
many. Employers should be urged to find
time to study the interests of their en-
ployes. If this were the case there wonld
not be so much cause for strikes. Work
iugmen in America did better work than
those of Germany, but their homes were
not as comfortable, and as conse-
quence they were dissatisfied.
If one half the millions deposited
in savings banks by working men was de-
voted TO the establishment of homes, the
working people would be more contented
Moral training would do more to prevent
strikes than legislative action. When en-
ployers treated their working men
in a klndlier spirit there would
be no necessity for trades unions.
There should be industrial schools
in which girls and women
could be instructed in house
hold economy. Witness said all combi-
nations had an injurious influence en- the
consumer, but he did not see how they
could be remedied by legislation, but
thought that there should be some legisla-
ton to prevent men from dealing in fu-
lures, that is the selling OF something they
did not own. It was speies of gambling
The trade dollar, he thought, should be re-
deemed by congress.

IL
or Suicide.
Especial Telegram to the Globe.
CHIcAGo,Sept. 25.-There was intense ex-
citement about!the board of tradethis after
noon over the report that Lyman Blair, of
the we'll kno wn firm of Blair & Blair, grain
and provision dealers, had committed
suicide. This news was first received
about 2 o'clock, but little could be learned
as to the facts in the case. The cause for
this act could hardly be surmised by his
many acquaintances as the firm is report
ed to be in good circumstances. 1t is one
of the oldest on change and does commits
sion business. The news spread about the
ally like wildire, end soon the question as
to the deed was in every ones mouth.
| His friends claim the fatality was an acei
dent. He went to his home, PA Michigan
avenue, about II O'Clock, and ordered the
coachman to get his carriage ready for
[ trip to the Tolleston club grounds, he being
an enthusiastic hunter. In few mo-
ments the report of a gun was heard and
the coachman, rushing to his room, found
him dead, the top of his head blown off
and the smoking gun lying at his feet.
The supposition of accidental death is
grounded on the fact that he was IN perfect
health at the time, and was naturally of a
happy temperament and had no disposi-
tion to be melancholy. He was not in any
financial difficulty, and had no reason
whatever to take his own life. The
door of his room was open when the acci.
dent occurred, and his relatives can account
for the occurrence in no other way than on
the supposition of an accident. These
rumors of suicide are denied by Mr..
Blair's friends, and the fact that he made
an engagement with Mr.. Raymond, OF the
firm of Jones & Raymond, to GO to Tolles-
| ton, indicates that the theory of suicide
cannot be maintained. 1t is also claimed
Mr.. Blair was not in financial straits, and
had no reason for killing himself. There
Is not room for much doubt that his death
was caused by the accidental discharge of
his gun. Lyman Blair was one of the old
est members of the board of trade He
was originally member of the packing
firm of Cullerton, Blair & Co., which dis
solved about six years ago. He then went
into business with his son, W. f. Blair,
under the firm name of Blair & Blair. The
deceased was 63 years of aye aud came
from Courtland, N. Y. He vas brother
of Chauncey j. Blair, president of the Mer-
chant National bank.

LONDON, Sept. 25.-A meeting of the
joint committee of cotton spinners, man
ufacturers and operatives in northeast
Lancashire, is 10 be held to-day at, Man
chester, to confer upon the depressed con-
dition of the cotton trade. The principal
object of the conference is to arrange a
scale of wages. The market for cotton
goods is admitted to be suffering from
overproduction. The masters propose to
effect reduction of wages, which propos-
ition the workmen will resist to the utmost
of their ability. They suggest to the mas
ters instead of reduction of wages the
production be curtailed by working fac
tories on shorter time. The result is
awaited with great anxiety.
