Kilgs---The General Quo

CHICAGO, Oct. 14-There was fairly active
market in wheat to-day. The tendency of
prices was very uncertain early, but the
firmer tone noticed at the very start prevailed
later in the day, and at l o'clock December
wheat was at the best point of the day and
SSc over the closing prices Saturday. The
receipts here were 3l2 cars. or much more
than estimated. but they included an extra
day of receipts on three roads. The grading
was % cars of No. 2 out of 312 cars received.
The receipts in the Northwest were enor-
nous, and Minneapolis and Duluth received
l 800 cars. This bearish point was offset by
the Liverpool early cable which gave wheat
firm with spot I'D dearer. The St Louis
dispatches contained complaints about
winter wheat because OF tho drought But
this was again offset by the West The prin-
cipal influence of the forenoon was the visible
supply report Figures received the first
hour gave little promise of whether the in
crease of the week was to be 100000 or
100000 bu. About l l O'Clock it was de-
cided that if less than 100000 bu 1t would
boost prices, aud if 1,500, OOU bu or more 1t
would cause Il setback. When, at noon. the
official figures were posted, It'll had little affect
on the market. October ranged at SOs40
SO7Sc; December, S2i4c, S2$4GyS2!sc May,
SOl60LSOoSC. ReCelptS were lZU CdTS WIultt
wheat, 1872 cars spring, sos ears corn and
3S4 cars oats. Withdrawals from store were
1O.424 blu winter wheat, 1863 bu spring,
6I5, sol bu corn and 10, $50 bu oats. The
visible grain supply statement as compiled
by Secretsry Stone, of the board of trade,
shows an increase of 100000 bu wheat,
$4,000 bu corn and 901 ,0G0 bu oats. The
trading in corn was not heavy, but the
market was very strong. hutchinson was
picking up all the odd lots of November and
year that were offered for sale. COunselman
also bought November. Norton Worthing-
ton and Wrieht-Haughey were the sellers.
Oats were dull and a shade firmer. There
was little out of the usual routine in the pro-
vision trade. Receipts of hogs at the yards
were liberal. but prices were wired as 5@10c
higher and the market active and firmer.
First prices i'll the pit were triie lower for
short ribs and steady for lard and pork.
Later in the day there was little strength in
mess pork. Hutchinson bought October pork
at $40 80. bid it up to Sill, and sold it later
at S1O.75. November sold at S9.37l2 up to
S9.47l2, and back to the opening price. Jan
uary sold at 50. 81 l2Gl9.40, and opened and
closed at S9.32I2. Short RIBS sold for De-
tober at 50. 10, to S5.C5, to 500. Lard was
duh and steady.
The leading futures ranged as follows:

A Decision by Cooley Respecting
Live stock shipments.

live stock shipments.
WASHINGTON, Oct. lathe inter-
state commerce commission, in an Opin-
ion by Chairman Cooley, to-day maze
public its decision in the cases of Abiel
Leonard and Logan B. Chappelle
against the Chicago & Alton Railroad
company. COmplainantS were formerly
allowed TO ship live cattle in carloads
from Mount Leonard. Mo-. TO Chicago
at $50 per car. and 10 load twenty head
into a car. On Jan. 81, 1889, Complain
ant Leonard offered $50 head of cattle
for such shipment in nine cars, but this
was refused, and he was Informed that
the rate would be "a cents per 100
pounds for a carload of not less than
10000 pounds, and any excess of that
number of pounds TO a car would be
charged for at the same rate. The
freight charge was Sj90.S8, and the
cattle were loaded in twelve cars.
The main question in these
eases was whether carriers can
rightfully substitute for the
practice Of charging car loai'S rates on
cattle, irrespective of weight. the lule
that while a car LOT rate is named
minimum weight for a car load is pre-
scribed, and any excess over the mini
mum Is to be charged for by the hum
dred pounds in proportion to the car lot
rate. The commission decided that this
rule is not unlawful, and being more in
proportion to the service rendered, it is
prima facie more just and reasonable
than the practice it Supplanted. Upon
the hearing it was shown that by state
law, Or the rulings of state commissions,
shippers of cattle in Kansas or Mis-
souri, to points within the state had the
right to load cars without regard to
weight at a stated price per ear. 1t was
said that the rule was the same in some
other states, and the commission was
urged to conform thereto. The COM
mission holds that such state action is
not a reason for adopting the like rule
in interstate traffic, if that course is
found not TO be most just and polite
The grant to the federal government of
the power to regulate interstate COM
meTce is full and complete. and cannot
be narrowed or encrCached upon by
state authority, either directly or indi-
Tectly. State action will always be
treated with the highest Difference and
respect. but it cannot he allowed to con-

The American Express Company
n as ri card of No Cancellation of
Contract.
Inquiry at the Manitoba offices and of
General Manager NaYlor, of the Ameri-
can Express company, failed to elicit
any definite information about the re-
port that the Manitoba road had given
notice to the express company that at
the expiration of its present contract on
Dec. 3l,no new contract would be made.
The ordinary notice of expiration of
contract was given as usual, and there
is no reason to believe that a new one
will not be made. The contract with
Wells, Fargo q Co. was closed last July,
and the NJ )ntana Central is now having
its eXpressage done by the American
company. which is now the only COM
pany operating on the Manitoba system.
General Manager NaylOr. of the Ameri-
can Express company, and General
Traffic Manager Alexander, of the Man
itOba. deny having any knowledge OF
the rumored change, so that it is prob
able that there is nothing in it, al
though the information published in the
GLOBE Sunday was received from such
high authority as TO preclude any doubt
Of its correctness at the time.
