INDIANAPOLIS MARKETS.
Trade Still Little OFF, but Improving on
the Early Part of the Week.

INDIANAPOLIS, oct. y.
The last day or two trade has been more act
i've than in the early part of the week, but still
falls behind in volume that of September. The
coming week, however, will doubtless show an
improvement In groceries there is fair move
ment Sugars rule steady, while coffees are
frmer, roasted coffees advancing ! of cent.
The provision market is dull and unnteresting.
Lard. at wholesale. is down TO &c: short-ribs,
5. 30c; the market is cleared of hams and dry
salt shoulders The other markets are I'M
changed. Potatoes and eggs are firm at quota
tions, while poultry, butter, apples and cabbage,
owing to large supply, are weak at quotations
given.
GRAIN.
The local market is strong in tone Dealers
show disposition to take hold. Bidding on
Change was quite spirited to-day. The Board
of Trade Price Current says of wheat: Higher,
active and choice grades in good demand. Re-
cepts show slight improvement, but not equal
to wants. Futures frmer and higher, but no
offerings, sellers evidently believing in better
prices Markets elsewhere are strong and
HIGHER We ouOta.

line rose. poured destructive fire into them and
the cavalry took no further part in the engage
ment there. Immediately on the retreat of the
cavalry, infantry IN considerable numbers came
into view and advanced to the attack, and
Croxton was soon engaged in heavy
fight. The writer. as soon as the heavy
infantry attack developed returned to
report to General Brannan and found him In
position as described above. 1t is the recol-
lection of the writer that at the tine he reported
back to General Brannan the other two brigades
Of his division which he had with him had not
opened fire at all, or only in very slight Skin
mishing. News of the serious wounding and
disabling of the commanding officer of his regi-
ment, to whom he was next in rank, reached the
writer a few minutes after reaching General
Brannan through a straggler from Croxtons
line, and by permission of General Brannan he
was relieved from staff duty and returned to his
regiment, and did not witness the entry of the
other two brigades into action, which must have
occurred almost Immediately.
After General Croxton had been engaged in
heavy fighting about an hour, he sent word to
General Thomas that if Dan McCook would send
somebody to tie red string the brigade he
wanted, he would try to get it for him, but that
there were SO many there he could rot know,
without some mark, just which it was.
Croxtons brigade and the two Kentucky reg-
ments of it have always claimed the distinction
of opening the battle of Chickama uga, and, this
writer has always believed, on good grounds.
They claim the credit too. of leaving not till
about o'clock in the evening of the second day,
along with General Boynton and his command
the position on the HILL which, with them and
others. they had held against all assaults and till
the battle had ceased.

The Old Mop.

An Old Mop that had grown so fat and greasy
and lazy with age that it cared only to stand il
a corner of the room and enjoy breathing, was SC
engaged when a New Broom swept into the
apartment. With look of scorn at the Old
Mop, the New Broom brushed busily around
and after cleaning up the floor spick and span,
departed. The Old Mop sighed but said moth
ing.
A year rolled by.
Again the Old Mop was loaing in the corner
and again the New Broom entered. But it had
lost some Of its whisps, and was not as brisk as
before. 1t sat down in chair awhile, aad lef.
few cigar stumps OH the floor when it went
out. The Old Mop sighed but said nothing

Broom had worn itself to stump, and it simply

Uttered floor. The Old Mop sighed but said
