New YORK, Oct Especial Telegram TO
TIE BEE. l-SrocKs-At the opening of the
stock market to-day options were as diversi-

hopeful bulls argued that the bears had done
all possible harm until something not now in
view warranted lower range of values.
The Jones and Cammack following believe

newspaper sale OF the Alton TO the Union

Cattle

wednesday, Oct. 30.
Everything seemed to combine to-day to
make an unsatisfactory cattle market.
Eastern advices were discouragng, the
demand was moderate and the weather
slow and dull, and although = a
good many cattle were sold before
the close, it seemed all day if there was little
doing. II was, in fact, one of those markets
that are difficult TO be described. There
were some fairish cattle here, put nothing
very extra. The native beeves brought
50. 300nIl0. The most active branch of the
market was the trade in feeders, which
moved quite freely at fully as good prices as
yesterday The supply of good feeders was
scarce and the market on such could be
quoted firm. There was considerable de-
mand for light stocKers. The market on
COW stuff did not show any essential changes.
Such natives as there were here brought
Sl.50(62. 20 and few westerns $1.S09200.

j. ID. Cook, Wahoo, marketed bunch of
polled cattle yesterday at "a. 10, which was
good price for them, but the sale was given
TO the reporters at 81. 40 and was so reported
in all the papers. This is not only unfair TO
the reporters but IS an injustice to the coun-
try. No one can dispute the right of an
owner Of cattle to keep the terms of sale
private, but he has no right to get the sale
into the papers at fictitious price.

The Sound or Tsslnder.

One of the most terse and succinct de- liptions of a natural phenomenon is
 It recently given by NJ. Hirn, in which
 says that the sound which Is known as
 under is due simply to the fact that the traversed by an electric spark. that
 tlash of lightning is suddenly raised
 Q very high temperature. and has its
 i:nle. moreover. considerably increased
 :t column of gas thus suddenly heated .d expanded is sometimes several miles
 ig and. as the duration of the flash iz
 even milliontb of a second, it follows ai the noise bursts forth at once from ie whole column. though for an observer any one place it commences where the ,bjuing is at the least distance.
 h precise terms. according to M. Hirn. 2 beginning of the thunderclap gives us # minimum distance of the lightning. i.l be length of the thunderclap gives
 the length of the column. He also re arhs that when fash of lightning rlkes the ground. it is not necessarily. -om the place struck that the first noise . heard Again, he points out that a .,.let whistles in traversing the air. so nat we can to a certain extent follow it's lsEt. lhe same thing also happening with fsiling meteorite just before striking le earth The noise actually heard has cen compared to the sound produced Then one tears linen. it is due. really, to he fact that the air rapidly pushed on 'ie side in front of the projectile. whether iillet or meteOrite, quickly rushes back to li the gap left in the rear.-B Boston
