UNSETTLED MARKETS.

Chicago Grain Spectators Cropping In the
Dark as to wheat-Corn on the De-
cline-oats Follows Wheat and Corn
Provisions Inclined to Weakness.
CHICAGo-The Board OF Trade markets
were unsettled to-day. Wheat started
higher, but New York had big selling orders
here and the local crowd soon got suspicious
and buying became very cautious. st. Louis
was also selling, the Northwest quickly
Joined in and dispatches reported general
weakness abroad. The result was that the
tone here quickly changed to weakness, and
there was steady drop of cent in Decem-
bcr.
On the break there was some covering
and a reaction Of / cent, but an easy feeling
again prevailed for a time. During the last
hour December opened at 9sl@9S1kc against
9sIEc at the close yesterday; broke steadily
to g71Sc, reacted to 9S1Sc, receded to 97ISc,
rallied to 9s3sc, closing at 9s1sc.
Corn was weak early on account of the
continued warm weather; the Cincinnati
Price Currents estimate that seven-eighths
of the crop is out of danger from frost and
that the total crop will amount to 100000
bushels, and to the fact that some OF White
& Co.'S brokers in the last corn deal were
suspected of efforts to liquidate some long
corn for his account. October started 10
higher at 49Lc, touched 1890, but turned
downward at once to 47jsc. Later the sell
ing pressure was removed and prices re-
acted some. October sold up in 4sI4c, eased
Off to 1870, grew firm and closed at 1870.
Oats fluctuated with wheat and corn, but
the movement was confined to range

Hog products were inclined to weakness,
with the result of decline of 10@15c in pork
and 21lG71Sc in lard and ribs

Malt Extract. It's the finest thing
in the world for indigestion. 1 take
it regularly with my meal"
Indigestion is much prevalent
American disease. Too much starchy
food will cause it. Rich food and
sedentary habits also. Johann Hoff' S
Malt Extract is positive safeguard.
1t increases the energy of the stomach
and the intestinal canal, and stimu-
lates the secretion of the proper
quantity of diluting fluids. Besides
this, the extract reduces the chemical
reception of nourishing substances,
both in solid and liquid state (this
means you can eat hearty meal
without hurt), as well as their con-
version to the form most suited for
assimilation. The whole idea is-it

The weakness of coffees already noted in
this column has eliminated in another de-
cline. Our quotations are again reduced nc
per pound in accordance with the facts.
Sugars are still very active and firm, but
there is little likelihood of another advance.
The fruit canning time draws toward its
close, and demand for sugar will no doubt
decline in a short time, and thus prevent
any advance in prices.

FOREIGN METAL MARKETS.
The Pig Iron Market Is Rather Marrow, and
Tin Plate Restricted

New YORK. Sept.24.-[ Special. 1.-The foreign
metal markets are thus reported by the Iron
Age: In London the movement in prices of
pig iron warrants has been narrow, but upon
the whole the market shows firm tone.
There has been a good business in Cleve-
land and hematite warrants Shipments of
the former are quite heavy and general con-
sumption is better, chiefly in the steel trade
Latest sales of warrants were at AIS Cd for
Scotch, 4Os I'D for Cleveland and sos Sd for
hematite. Pig tin prices, after rece ding to
E9l for prompts, improved under tire influ-
ence OF Straits shipments, being smaller
than expected During the past few days
speculation has fallen off, in the absence of
encouragement from the l. aiding opera tors.
Copper is easier, with merchant bar
prompts off to fj2 Is. Business in tin plate
i still restricted, and buyers manifest less
interest. Makers are at present freely offer
ing ordinary Bessemer at lbs, although cx-
pressing confidence in a better demand
shortly. The demand for steel ship plates
is more active and the market is firmer.

A UNITARIAN ON DIVORCE.
He Would Punish as Criminals the Con-

He Would Punish as Criminals the Con-
tractors of Indiscreet Marriages.
SARATOGA, N. Y, Sept. A-The devotional
exercises of the Unitarian Conference were
conducted this morning by Rev. Mary A.
Stafford, of Sioux City, Ia. Hon. Carroll d.
Wright, of Washington, read a paper on
marriage and divorce. Speaking of the act
of Congress providing for the collection of
statistics relating to marriage and divorce,
he said the investigation thus ordered and
made was the first collection OF such facts
in sociology ever made by Government.
An examination of the laws of the several
States and Territories shows that marriage
is generally encouraged by law. He traced
large amount of domestic infelicity, from
which arise divorces, to the laxity of the
marriage laws.
Mr.. Wright concluded that he believes 1t
possible to properly restrict divorce, and
while thus restricting it he would make
marriage more difficult by making the
guilty party to indiscreet and hnsty unions
amenable TO criminal law. Then the law
should be changed SO that the State should
be party, and no ex-parte divorce decree
should be granted, for that would punish
the innocent.
