CurClGo. August 1.-The fine weather
has induced heavy receipts OF wheat,
lar.,e rortion being new winter; 0ra the
prospccts Of continued free receipts in the
near future were factors to the c0nsidera-
bic weakness displayed in to-day's grain
market. II being the last day OF the week
there wa. also disposition manifested TO
close deals and go over Sunday with even
books. The only articles approXmating
strength were provisions, which held their
own. Under light offerings there was re-
stricted trading. Wheat opened easy at
decline Of about &C., the only movlng-up
fraction during the first hour. The feeling
during the greater part OF the session was
weak. with prices declining quite steadily
for causes given and on account OF an en-
tire want Of support from any source
foreign sdyces showing dull markets ana
New York adyices showing a market
weak and steadily declining. The
average decline in active options
was Of per cent, with partiil recovery
toward the close on account OF there being
considerable backbone 10 the stock market.
Cash wheat was nOminally the same rs
at the August opening, S2c., closing ~
about Sac. Corn was more or less neg
lected by the bulls. who realized The I'M
probability OF bringing about any advance.
The general course OF the market was sub
stantially with wheat, the weakening causes
beng the same in both cases. The nuctu-
atoms were within a slightly wider range
being 1!c. in Angus, I!c. in September;
and lie. in October. All futures closed
steady AZ a decline. Cash corn sold at 534c.
Oats ruled inactive and easy, being in good
receipt. with plenty yet AZ country points
and not particularly wanted. Rice was
quiet at Gle. spot, SOC. August, and &c
September. Pork was entirely nominal
with no offerings and no attempt to buy.
Lard and ribs were fairly active, and about
steady at fractional decline.

and general conduct OF the camp ign was
decided upon, Elkins, il being understood,
reIrcstnting Blaine. Several o: the Re-
pubIcans present were among those who
in the State Convention opposed fusion.
However, harmony prevailed throughout.
and much good feeling was manifested
over The prospect Of very liberal contribu-

NORTH CAROLINA POLITICS.

the stump.

Isrccial telegram b the Dispaich.l
NEWTON. y. c.. August 2.-The Stae
political campaign opened here to-day.
General Scales, the candidate OF the Demo-
cratic patty. led of in a speech OF an hour
and n quarters length, followed by York.
the Liberal Republican; having rejoinder
OF fifteen minutes. The meeting had been
extensively advertised. People were pres
emf from several Of the adjoining counties,
amounting to several thousand. a Demo-
cratic campaign club had erected pole
eightv.six feet high, from which waived to
the breeze q beautiful national flag. On an
other flag was inscribed, Cleveland,
Scales. and Reform" Scales. IN his open
inv srccch, confined himself almost ex-
clusively to State politics, and showed why
it was 10 the interest Of the people to con-
tinue the Democratic party in power. York
listened to him attentiyely, but soon gave
evidence that he was no match for his com.
petitor, Scales being familiar with Stateand
Federal politics. He handled York with
much ability. York stood on the Republi-
can platform. and favored the election oil
Blaine and Logan. thus narrowing down
the contest between the Democratic and
Republican parties. Much enthusiasm was
created among the Democrats In favor OF
the state and national tickets. The Re
publican CoalitiOn-Liberal-Fusion amounts
to little.
