New YORK, Sept. 2l.-lSpecial Telegram
to THE BEE. l-SToCKs-The stock market
this morning labored under the weight of the
poor closngs of yesterdays London exchange
and the uncertainty regarding the weekly
bank statement. Trusts were special cause
of weakness on Friday and the action of the
banks regarding them was also doubtful
The trade realized in advance that much de-
pended on the action to. day, as it will influ-
ence London Monday Chicago parties were
more builish than for days, judging by last
dispatches last night. There was no surprise
when the market opened sluggish and with
first prices small and at fractions under the
close last night. The principal loss was q
in the sugar trust while Rock Island was an
exception, opening q higher Northern
Pacific preferred alone among the usually
active stocks showed any special animation.
The sugar trust did fair business but the
rest of the market was dull and stagnant
Sugar, however, quickly rallied and regained
the loss, while the general list advanced a
small fraction, geaerally wiping out losses OF
the opening Coal stocks were the only spe.
cial feature, however, Jersey Central contin-
uing its upward movement, reaching l22, a
gain of IL per cent from it's opening figure.
During the hour to ~ o'clock the bank state
ment was made public, showing decrease
of So, 900 in the reserves. This was not
so bad as the croakers predicted. The hour
brought a better strength to the stock list

buyers evidently having filed their orders

values was noted. Dressed beef men claimed
they would rather wait till Monday In prefer

it, on sale. City butchers bought
choice cows and heifers at steady

A Mule Has a Colt.

At the Bear creek ranch of County
Commissioner Dyer a mare mule that
has been about the place foaled colt,
says the Cheyenne Leader. The pro-
geny is now about week old, seems
healthy aud will doubtless live. 1T is a
pinto in color and has the outward
physical characteristics of the mule.
The mother is very proud and cares for
the colt properly. A Norman stallion
is the sire. This is the first instance in
Wyoming of mulo foaling and has
attracted the attention Of the ranchmen
in the Bear creek country.
A gentleman who knows about all
worth knowing on the subject of horse
breeding says that one other mare mule
has foaled since the world began. This
animal is in the geological garden at
Paris and has twice become mother.
Her colts are driven to a phaeton.
Mr.. Dyer says he will bring the
strange animal to town for the fair, but
as the news OF it's birth was telegraphed
broadcast last night he will doubtless
receive an offer for the animal before
that time.

There has been a good deal of solici-
tude among the business men, railroads,
bankers. ETC., for two weeks concerning
the corn crop. The general feeling
was that it was in serious danger from
frost. The hot dry weather of the last
half of August has changed this, and
the cry now is that there is great dan
ger of drouth. There is some ground
fcr this alarm, says the Iowa Home
stead. While the weather has been just
right for corn in all parts OF the coun-
try where the June weather was dry
and there were timely showers in July,
it has not been right for sections hav-
ing wet June. Hence the entire
country from southern Kansas through
to Ohio has been called upon to stand
a very severe test, and we have no
doubt that the crop is cut short. The
reports from the various counties in
southern Iowa, from Marion to Lee, as
given TO the signal service station at
Des Moines, indicate that the corn is
suffering, and travellers tell us that
much of it is 'tring." This indicates
danger that cannot be repaired. The
country in Iowa north of the Illinois
Central is likewise suffering, except
the counties west of the divide. East
ern Iowa is suffering worse than in the
west. In central western Iowa the corn
is all that could be desired. The Off
Ger in charge of the Iowa service sums
up the situation August 81 as follows:
Early planting and well titled corn is rap
idly maturing and doing well. Some fields
are already out of danger of damage by
frosts, and the bulk Of the crop will be well
matured by September To- The dry weather
has undoubtedly reduced the total yield OF
corn Is per cent below the estimate made al
the first of the month; but the crop will be
ample.
Reports from other states show that
conditions are less favorable in general
than in Iowa. and all indications now
point to crop not in excess of last year
II, indeed, it equals it. There is nc
need for farmers to borrow trouble over
the supposed fact that there will be nc
sale for the crops. We are not yet to
be drowned in our sweetness.

Disease Among Dairy Cattle.

The natural condition of men and ami
mails is health; tho abnormal condition
is disease. Yet, strange to say, where
we find one man earnestly seeking infor-
nation how to best maintain the health
of his animals, we find ten inquirlng
how to cure disease incident to bad
surroundings and bad Management. as if
disease were inevitable and remedies
our own salvation. Hygienic conditions
are of far more Importance than RENEE
dies-indeed restoring these is often all
the remedies-indeed restoring these
is often all the remedy needed; and if
dairymen would put all their energies
of mind into the effort to provide and
maintain all the conditions ueces-
sary to the health of their
stock and let any incidental dis
ease generally have its course, it would
be money in their pockets. With good
COWS to begin with, good food, good
shelter, clean surroundings, and plenty
of clean water and pure air, they might
safely defy all ordinary diseases, and
leave physic to the dogs. There are
certain things incident to maternity
that should be carefully provided for
and the animal treated accordingly,
writes Il. ID. G. in the Nebraska Farmer.
Many of the troubles with the udder
have tnelr 1OunuatlOn lalu Wnen tne COW
is dried off. Great care should be ta-
ken, therefore, that no Inflammation Or
obstruction, caused by the failure of alb
sorption of the lingering secretions of
milk, is permitted to come on with its
painful after consequences. Study in
every way to preserve the health of
your cows and you will have little cause
TO seek remedies for disease. Do not
expect them to maintain perfect health
in an atmosphere in which you could
not live yourself with entire safety.

doing they will improve in quality each

Do not store bects, carrots and pars-

The silo has brought new revelations
to us and given us a value in fodder

and what it may do for us in the way of
giving us cheaper and better rations for
cattle.

PHOTOGRAPHED THE SPIRIT.
A Bogus Spook Cleverly Exposed BY
an Artist at Buffalo.

Spiritualism in Buffalo has received a
black eye from which it will hardly re-
cover. AT the house of Mrs. L. A.
Ladd, on Niagara street, two of the
leading mediums of the country,
Mr.. and Mrs. Cobb, have for
some time been stopping as guests,
having been invited there directly
after the close of the four days meeting
at Carsadage lake. Mrs. Ladd is not
spiritualist, but she was greatly at
tracted by the novelty of their manifes-
generated by Mrs. Cobb, which carried
all hearts by storm. Numerous
Buffalo mediums had either seen
or heard of this spirit, and there
was the liveliest kind of curiosity mani
tested on every hand to see it. AT last
Mrs. Cobb consented to give a manifes-
tation of the spirit, and the dark circle
was arranged at the house. Among
about twenty who were present was
William Baker, well known
photographer; with Kodak ca
mera, flash light, and ac-
companied by John Vincent, a de-
tective. Mrs. Cobb entered the cabinet
and was bound hand and foot. Then
the spirit appeared and began weaving
luminous lace, whereupon there was a
flash, a shrek, a struggle, and the cabi-
net was knocked completely over, the
lights were turned out, and Vincent
was found seated amid the ruins clasp
ing Mrs. Cobb, who was dressed in
nothing but mosquito netting, and had
a luminous string of phosphorescent
Hamburg in her hands. dummy lay
in ruins beneath them. The company
contained a few genuine spirituaiists,
but all were equally wild with indigna-
tiOa at the fraud, and the two were not
released till they had signed state
ment confesslng themselves frauds.
Mrs. Cobb went into convulsions, but
was quickly brought around by mag
netic shock from battery. They be-
long in Mentor, o., where they have
now returned.
