A CIGAR.
FRANK DEMpsTER SHERMAN.

ALONE puff soft wreaths of blue
That frame most delightful vleW;-
A little library with two
Together sitting:
A youth and girl Upon her knee
A novel with hero, he's
A ghostly circumstance to these
Quaint wraps she's knitting.
The lover holds the worsted, and
Just touches one fair pinky hand
How well her bright eyes understand
For soon, unbidden,
Two scarlet lips begin to move
A conversation in that groove
Where chosen words quite clearly prove
The subject hidden.
And then the knitting's laid aside;
The needles dropped; and some sweet guild
Leads both his hands to haply hide
Two cther's whittier.
listen, and q mellow note
Slips through the rosy, rounded throat;
l hear the happy lover quote
The novels writer.
The writer,-ah, what kind fates come
TO keep harsh criticism from
His little book; perhaps it's some
Such situation;-
A picture similar to this,
Portraying brief spell Of bliss,
And punctuated with a kiss
Interrogation.
/ see the faces slowly meet,
And shy, uncertain glances greet:
The knitting's fallen to her feet;
And on his shoulder
Her head In golden glory lies,
While, fathoming her lovely eyes,
He reads the tenderest replies
Love growing bolder.
But, while dream in idleness,
And wonder whether she will bless
His hearing with whispered YES
--ses With dropping lashes;
The picture fades from sight afar
AS pales at morn a silver star;
l seek the light of my cigar,
And find but ashes

Especial Telegram TO the Globe
New YORK, Sept. 29.-The attendance
was lighter at the stock exchange to-day than
usual, and the market for hours was exceed
ingly dull. The undertone was firm, how
ever, and prices were very well sustained.
During the afternoon Texas Pacific distn-
guished itself by advancing to 10. Northern
Pacific preferred looked better also. New
York Central gained point over Saturdays
figures. and as there was no prominent sell
ing of it to-day the balance were relieved,
for 1t was a big drag on the market last
week. Gould has got hold of large line Of
Union Pacific at about so, and he gives it
out that this stock will have a reaction soon,
which will not stop until II has been reached
The changes during the last hour we're
unimportant, until few moments before
the close, and the volume of business
exceedingly light. The party in Union Pa
cific marked the stock up point from the
opening figures, and Delaware 81 Lackawana
was well held. st. Paul sold at 7615, ex-
dividend, 81 per cent. afterwards slipping
off to 76. Lake Shore seemed firm at about
n. At the last the market was quiet but
decidedly strong. There was nothing in the
way of rumors calculated 10 affect prices
either way. The bulls appeared to control
matters at the last and manipulated values

corn, and was he not then laughing in his sleeve
at the fellow whom he had short at 74c? Who
is there indignant now who has not either sue
cessfully unsuccessfully attempted some
sort of proceeding themselves, Eth! The pres
ent corner has revived the old question of
whether short sellers of produce have higher
rights than long buyers. People who are not in
the market, but who are interested in the argu-
ment only as they are in any discussion where
the disputants are very much in earnest should
remember that interested parties are spectators,
all of them. On the one side are spectators who
have sold, expecting to manipulate prices down;
and on the other spectators who have bought,
and who have succeeded in manipulating prices up.
1t can also be shown that all of those who are
now trying to incite some sympathy for them
selves because they were caught short, and are
being squeezed, have. at one time or another
heretofore, as longs and squeezers of the
ket, ridiculed the very argument they them
selves are now using. If disnterested people
will think carefully they will see that it is hard
to decide whether short sellers are, or are not,
entitled to any sympathy. Is not corner the
legitimate and best cure for reckless ovcrseling?
just as stimulated production, great speed in
marketing produce, and an overwhelming mar
shaling of corn, or wheat or lard or hogs ere the
legitimate cure of a deliberate corner
Oats ruled steady and strong the most Of
the day, but closed about Is lower than On
Saturday. There was but little stuff on sale,
and prices fuctuated within narrow limits.
The closing prices were 2515c for October
and zoe for May.
In the provision market there was less do
ing and the market ruled irregular Offer
ings were moderate on speculative account,
and the demand not urgent: Eastern mar
kets ruled quiet and unchanged, and foreign
aQVices showed a weaker fpplinU in lard
Liverpool quotations being reduced Sd.
Here prices declined 5@1Oc early, but raj
lied somewhat near tine close. The last quo
tation being $3.50 for October and s7.121E
for November, a decline of Zoe. At the
close prices were the same as on Saturday.
Owing to the big run on the top of heavy
receipts last week and Hebrew holiday the
cattle market ruled rather dull. Among the
fresh receipts were nearly 800 ears of Texans
and western rangers. Range cattle were
quoted lower, although the amount of bust
ness transacted was barely sufficient to
make market or establish quotations, but
statesmen generally looked for decline Of
15@20c. There were many prime droyes of
westerns among the stock from Montana
and Dakota.
The hog market was fairly active with lit
tie or no variation in prices as compared
with the close Of last week. Rough and COM
mon packers sold at about "a. 90@510; fair
to good mixed s5.25@5. So The bulk of the

Blaine that Gen. Logan was opposed to the
Fremont scheme and would proba-
bly, make the point. So Blaine, the speaker
of the honse of representatives, sent his page
to Gen. Logan with the suggestion, and he
at once made the point, and Blaine sustained
it. This is the story that Blaine himself
gives of the transaction in the letter referred
to. The speaker denounced it as utterly
corrupt and read many passages from other
letters calculated to sustain his declarations
that such actions were done for private gain
and in no respect for the public good. Mr..
Otis was very severe in his denunciations of
such bold, corrupt proceedings. From other
letters the speaker read passages one in par
ticular he dwet upon, where Blaine gets
into dispute with Fisher about the amount
due him for his corrupt inter-
ference. Blaine asserts he has not been paid
in full the amount due, which he claims is
$4,000. He admits the payment of $4,000,
but he wants more. In another place he
claimed $40, 000,a S31, 900 due from these
corrupt arrangements, making S101, 600 in
one transaction. Blaine is worth to-day
S3,O0o,0O0, How did he get it9 He has no
business. lie has no profession. He was
poor when he went into congress twenty
years ago. He never earned that money. He
never came honestly by it. He obtained it
by corrupt means. such as ought to consign
him TO the penitentiary. If Blaine is
elected We may as well bid good bye to
honor and honesty. This is the man that
is now hippodroming about the country
and visiting the tomb of Garfield, still prac-
ticing the tricks of a demsgogue to catch
votes. He declared that Blaine was not a
man that was entitled to any consideration,
from the Irish especially. He is a hypocrite
and cannot be trusted.
This closed the speaking, and with many
and long continued cheering the large audi
ence gradually departed to their homes.

Especial Telegram to the Globe. !

MILWAUKEE, Wis, Sept. 29-Wheat has
been active to-day, finally closing &c lower
than Saturday. Gables reported firm mark
cts in England, with some advance on
winter wheat, while spring was unchanged.
Here and in Chicago there were free sales
by the recent heavy buyers, and the market
seems to have lost strength. The sentiment
is still bullish. We look for an increased
movement of spring wheat and probably
lower prices for few days. We quote the
closing of the market for October, 76Tc;
November, 7S%c. WALL BIGELow.
