Hold What Has Been Gained.

Frightening Prospects-A Determination to
Hold What Has Been Gained.
INDIANAPOLIS, Sept. %.
The business situation, if summed up in a
phrase, would be best described as controlled by
determination to hold what has been gained,
and push on for better things. The wool mar
ket continues active. Wool has advanced about
&c pound from the lowest in July, and prices
are firm at the advance. There has been con-
siderable speculative buying on the probable
shortage of the years clip. The bulk Of the
wool in the country is believed to be in the
hands OF second parties. who are holding for
advance Eastern manufacturers are buying with
more confidence. and mills have quite generally
started. Sales of wool at Boston last week
aggregated about 5000, 600 pounds, compared
with 2, 500, 600 for the same week last year The
sugar market continues in strong position.
The circular of Messrs. Willett Hamlen q Co.
reports the receipts of the week at the four ports
as To- O53 tons against IL Al tons in 1884, in
crease of 3,635 tons as compared with last year
Inc rece pts since the Ist of January were 49,
42o tons against 81, $50 tons in 1884 increase
or Z, o39 tons as compared with last year. The
stock In importers hands Sept 16, was 1872 497
tons against 153, 958 tons in 1884 a decrease as
compared with last year of q, 46l tons Thetotal
stock in all hands Sept Ii. was 159. 254 tons
against l95, $50 tons in 1884 The consumption
OF the United States through the four ports since
Jan. ], exports deducted, was 721. 1926 tons
against 69S360 tons in 1884, an increase
OF 2,466 tons. Meetings are about 1000
tons daily. Refners stocks are 1868
tons less than last year. and are sufficient
for seven days MEETINGS without renewal Total
stock is sufficient for about seven weeks melt
lngs without renewals. Cuba and British West
India crops appear to be rather larger than was
estimated. judging by the receipts In coffees
there is less activity and prices are easier No
new features have been developed in the tea
market. There is fairly steady tone for all the
best grades, but buyers are not willing to re-
spond to any advance. The provision market is
little stronger in tone. Lard goes up to 64c
with stock in this market well reduced short ribs
TO 3. 65c, drysalted shoulders to g. 50c The whole
sale market is well cleared of hams and sweet
picked shoulders.
GRAIN.
The local market is strong in tone and dealers
show considerable interest. The Board Of Trade
Price Current says Of wheat-The march
towards higher prices still continues, and 913c
was bid for No. red ON call. Receipts slightly
better but offerings are generally light Futures

A Mayo man a short time ago landed
on one of the quays at Liverpool, in
search of harvest work. Afellow on the
quay, thinking to quiz the stranger,
asked him:
"How long, Pat, have you broke
loose from your fathers cabin, and
how does the potatoes eat now?"
The Mayo youth, who happened to
have shillelagh in his hand, answered.:
''Oh, they eat very well, my jewel;
would you like to taste the stake" and,
knocking the inquirer down, coolly
walked off
He was not questioned afterwards.
The chief rabbi of the Dantzic Jews
had taken new house, and his flock
determined to stock his wine butt for
him.
An evening was set apart for the
affair, and one after another the Jews
went down into the cellar and emptied
each his bottle into the big vat. When
the rabbi came next day to draw off
his dinner wine. he found there was
nothing in the cask but water.
Each and every Jew had said to
himself that one bottle of water could
never be noticed in so great quantity
of wine, and all acting up to this, the
rabbi had not got drop of wine in
his butt.

The Influence of the Environment

We now have true theory of the
influence of the environment on an
animal. Sensation being understood,
the animal proceeds to adapt itself to
its surroundings by the adoption of ap-
propriate habits, from which appro-
pirate structures arise. Without such
response on the part of the animal, the
greater part of the world would have
remained uninhabited by all but the
lowest forms of life, and these too might
have been eXtinguished. From the
simplest temporary methods of defense
and protection, animals have developed
the habits of laying up stores, of
building houses, of the arts of the chase,
Of migrations over wide territories.
There can be no doubt that the con-
stant exercise of the mind in self-sup-
port and protection has developed the
most wonderful of all machines, the
human brain, whose function is the
most wonderful of phenomena, the
human mind. And the acts of other
parts of the organism, which have been
the outcome of this process, have pro-
duced the varied structures which to-
day constitute the animal kingdom.
H. is thus shown to a demonstration,
by means of the principle of kineto-
genesis, that evolution is essentially a
process of mind. The source of the
consciousness, which is back of it, is
at present an unsolved problem. That
it has existed and does exist, there can
be no question, and there is no sufficient
reason for supposing that it will not
continue to exist. Cope, in
Popular Science Monthly for October.

In conversation recently with j. B.
Stallo, United States Minister to Italy.
the question OF the fees and emolu-
ments OF Consular officers came up,
and he said: THAT is a point on
which | am thoroughly posted. l have
heard great many statements about
this or that Consulate being worth
$4,000 or $50, 900 year or more.
None of them are legitimatcly worth
more than the salaries. All the fees
go to the government. When my
friend, Judge Mueller, of Cleveland,
was appointed Consul at Frankfort-on-
the-Main, some one said to me that it
would lift him out of his financial diff
culties. | looked up the law to see
how it would be, for wanted him to
be well placed. found that he would
get $4,000 year salary only. His
predecessor has been acting as law
yer in the transaction of business for
clients abroad, and so adding to his
income. But this is illegitimate. Ev-
cry dollar paid to a Consul as a gratu-
ity or fee, directly or indirectly, must
partake OF the nature of bribe When
we talk about consulate being worth
a great deal of money, we imply at
once the dishonesty of the incum bent.
There is more or less of the indirect
making of money in all our public offi-
ces. The Probate Judgeship at Gin
cinnati, under fee system, was sup
posed to be worth $4,000 year at
least. A law was passed making the
salary 5000 and no perquisites. Yet
men will spend double that amount to
get the office. l investigated once for
the reason. l found, for instance,
when young man came to get mar
riage license the fee was 81. The
Probate Judge had Il lot of highly Or
namented licenses printed which cost
him or cents each, which he fur
nished for 50. Very few young men
in so eventful Il period of their lives
will fail to spend So for such thing.
The profit is enormous to the Judge.
L can imagine there are such things in
the Consular service, but it is serious
question in my mind whether or not it
is legitimate. ~ Y. Tribune.

The Modern Novel,

In one of the new novels appealing
to intelligent readers the hero rescues
the heroine five times from imminent
deadly peril, and then fights with,
wounds and puts to flight three or four
burglars. In another novel of recent
date one of the heroines is told by her
physician that she has but year to
live. Determined upon brilliant exit,
she embarks on a sumptuously fitted
yacht and is heard of no more. A story
exceedingly popular with ladies has as
its leading character man who makes
love to a governess and tries to get rid
of his wife by imprisoning her in q
damp room. He is received in the best
society, but turns out to be notorious
burglar, who has his spoils concealed
in a secret cellar beneath his dwelling.
Another novelist has one of his charac-
ters buried beneath the sands of the
Egyptian desert, only to come to life
again in the concluding chapters. One
hero is thrown by his rival down deep
vault built in a past generation to fur
nish an easy method of getting rid of
unwelcome visitors. 1t is very deep,
the air in it is fetid enough to extin-
guish a lighted candle, it is covered
with massive trap door of oak, and
the walls are so thick it is supposed no
cry from it could reach the outer air.
But after several days his yells are
heard by the butler in the wine cellar.
