and unsatisfactory all around. AS to prices
with yesterday On prime natives or on the
ordinary run Of so-called part cornfed stock,
but anything at all off style or Off flesh was
quoted easier, and native common grades
were almost unstable, unless at r%uinously
low prices. Texans, although not lower than
at the close yesterday, were slow, weak and
unsettled. Up to the hour this report closed
no range cattle had arrived, hence no sales or
quotations. Native butchers stock, especially
good cows and heifers, have had to follow the
downturn on Texans and old canning stock
was nearly unsaleable to-day. Veal calves
were in good demand; stockers and feeders
quiet and steady. The receipts included

NEW York, July 26.-[Special Telegram to
THE BEE. misunderstanding among the ma
jority of stock operators continues bullish.
Judge Brewers idecision has been full
digested, and although the injunction granted
is only temporary, it has conveyed the inn
preston that the railroad commissioners can
not make rates of freight so low that the
roads care unable to earn fixed charges.
The final hearing will probably not occur in
side of sixty to ninty days. During the time
intervening the roads can put in force paying
rates and do q large business, as grain crops
are just beginning TO move. The market
opened quiet but strong, with most Of the
activity confined to II few stocks, among
which st. Paul, Reading, Lackawanna,
Union Pacific and Louisville & Nashville
were most prominent. In early t~radings a
dropping tendency was developed in several
stocks, which gradually extended to the en-
tire list. St. Paul and Wheeling and Lake
Erie preferred each declined I per cent, but
losses in the rest of the list were Of slight
fractions only. There was some recovery
about II O'Clock, but no pcrceptible increase
in business, and up TO noon only 1880 shares
had changed hands. London cam In strong
and Grbitrage houses traded literally in
Reading, Louisville & Nashville and Erie.
Stocks were moro plentiful in the loan
crowd, but rates showed no change. Outside
of the Brewer decision, there was little in
the market to gossip about, and after mid
day a dizziness prevailed. The market after
midday showed plainly that operators who
had profits were taking them, and more
stocks cam out than buyers were disposed
TO take readily, Reading was sold heavily
for Philadelphia. Insiders are not disposing
Of their stocks, but it is said to be the small
holders who have recently received their
new certificates. The last hour witnessed a
general weakening Of the entire list except
ing Changers, which remained firm, and St
Paul and Northwestern, which closed at out
side figures. Last sales showed an irregular
market. Canada Southern was up y, Illinois

che spring is so late. the latest, Frank
Brown tells me he has known IN this
locality for years.-He had Just started
four teams at work putting in wheat.
II. a. Miller began last week liz,
liorsley is transplanting his cu1rant
bushes. L. E. Small is sharpening
posts preparatory TO fencing a pasture
to keep his own stock, and perhaps Il
few colts for others.- G. w Hill has
sent q team alield blowing Spring
has indeed come at last. The prairie
is Just beginning to don its robes Of
green and purple intersparsed by
flowers. Geese and ducks, brants and
swan have left their winter homes in
the lagoons anG Swamps OF regions
where ice and snow seldom visit, and
are vending their way to their summer
abodes III the British possessions or
where the feet OF man seldom tread.
The birds have attuned their voices to
their sweetest lays, rejoicing with man
that spring has come again The
spring is SO late that some farmers
here will have uphill work to get
their crop planted in season, and
some pieces Of land already broken
VIII not lie cropped at all this year,
And is it not better to let land go
rather than put it IN out OF season:
Would it not pay better for the. farmer
to Go What he does, Well; would it not
pay him better to raise a good garden
rather than live out of the store?
When we see man going to u store
for what he should raise. we some
times think that that farmers farm is
going at a rapid rate into that store
keepers pocket: just as when we see a
farmer often enter a lawyers Office we
know it will not be long before that
farmers land viii SO into the lawyers
pocket Farmers ought to be the most
independent and most happy: and
would they no. be, il they would not
try to get all the land that joins them
and rot t-y to pay three per cent !

US that money has paid only two aad
tive thirds per cent q year since the
Foundation Of the government? by
what ratiocination CO they think they
can do Nhat statistics tell us they
