Yards during the past "a hours--27
cattle, 1855 hogs. Shiprnents--77O
hogs. Receipts for the week just closed,
2,e41 cattle. 19,o4Oh hogs and % horses
The cattle receipts were the smallest for
some time and the quality of the offerings
as a rule were very common. The market
was rather draggy and prices little weak.
Good to choice butcher cattle are in de-
mand and would sell for a good price.
There is really no demand for thin COWS
and heifers, and if sold they go at very
low price. Not much enquiry for stock
ers.
The supply of hogs was fair for Satur-
day. The market was very slow until
after noon as the local packers were filled
up and did not care to buy more to carry
over tomorrow, and things looked little
discouraging for the statesmen. But after
dinner Armour's buyer came onto the
market and purchased about l,O5O hogs.
Prices were not as strong by about 213
cents as yesterday. Bulk of sales 8. 40 to
$3.50 on packing hogs. Heavies S3.5O to
$685. There were very few pigs offered
The close was weak and some hogs LETT
over The closing price is 215 cents higher
than one week ago.

THE HEIDENHEIMERS.
Companies to be Called in New
York-A Review of the Case.

Special 10 the Gazette.
NEW YORK, Dec. 4.-Ths famous suit
of the Texas Standard cotton seed oil
factory of Galveston against six different
insurance companies, has been brought
to New York for final settlement. Pro-
ceedings will be begun on Tuesday next.
These suits promise to prove of unusual
interest, Us not only is there about $500, =
600 involved, but the charges of con-
spiracy and arson have been developed
against the Heidenheimer brothers. A
dozen of the cleverest lawyers in New
York have been engaged by the six in
surance companies. The Texas Standard
cotton seed oil factory is located on the
outskirts of Galveston, Tex, and is
principally owned by the Heidemheimer
brothers, Isaac and Sampson. Sampson
Heidenhelmer is president of the COM
pany. Early this year the company was
insured heavily, and on April s the
entire establishment was destroyed
by fire. The insurance companies
have secured two witnesses who
declare the fire was of incendiary
origin. They even go further than this,
and have made affidavit stating that on
the night in question they cav Sampson
Heidenheimer enter the mill with q
lighted candle in his hand, while his
brother, Isaac, waited for him outside
in wagon. Ten minutes later the fire
broke out. One of these witnesses Is
Frenchman named Cologne.
Shipman l.. Trocque & Choate are
counsel for the Common wealth insur-
ance company of New York; Evarts,
Choate s Beaman are watching the III
terests of the Prudeltial fire insurance
company OF Boston; Davies, Shorthand

A Bull View of Wheat.

f. R. Livermore, ex-president Of the
New York produce exchange, IN
discussing the produce situation,
has been reported as saying:
1.-The Western millers are grind
Ing more wheat than ever before. They
cannot keep up their present output be-
cause there is not enough wheat in sight
to supply them. Statements have ap-
peared that the world IS supply of wheat
is 80 900 900 bushels in excess of the re-
quiIements. l do not see how that con-
cluson Is reached. This country Is short
60, 600, GOO 20 so, 900, 900 bushels. But
India and Russia report short crops, and
therefore the world IS supply must be
short. The silver question. now promi-
nent, enters largely into the situation.
India is the first grain producing country
to feel an advance in the price of silver,
and Russia the next. Silver is now
high enough to check expectation of
wheat from India. The Russian export
season is ended for the reason that the
Danube and Black Sea are closed. The
quantity OF wheat in the main ports OF
the United Kingdom is pretty large at
the present time but Europe will have to
purchase late in the winter or early in
the spring.

TRUMBULL.

The parish fair and festival at Poquon-
ock, Rev Mr. Merwin's parish, was held
in the Town hall, Wednesday, Thursday
and Friday evenings of last week and
was successful beyond the highest hopes
of its friends. Several hundred people
attended, in spite Of rain, wind and cold.
There were tableaux, songs by quartet
of young men, recitations and instru-
mental and martial music. The large,
new hall, with its many fancy booths,
beautifully trimmed and laden with
choice articles for sale and the loan ex-
sented a brilliant scene. Mrs N. Il. Mer-
win and her assistants presided over the
butterfly booth, which was beautifully
decorated, and was eminently successful.
Miss Nathalie Merwin was the gypsy
queen in large camp built of bark and
