A Heavy Market on Wall
Street, and Slight Losses
Recorded.

CHICAGO. Oct. 5.-Wheat was rather steady
to-day. Its course during most of the session
was down, but on most declines it found
pretty good support, and though below Sat
urday's closing figures most of the time. it
did not become demoralized at any time
closing easy at reduction of ss@5sc for the
various futures. The bulk of the news in
circulation was bearish. Gables were quoted
weak both through public ana private chan
nels. Receipts in the Northwest were very
large 1,762 cars. Good rains were reported
in the winter wheat region, where the drouth
has been severe, while from the Northwest
reports were conflicting, some dispatches
saying it was clear while Others said that
rain had again commenced and that the out
look was serious.
New York and other domestic markets
opened easier and the market here followed
December started at 9Slsc sold at 9S4c, then
broke to 97s4c, but reacted to -9ssSc. again off
to 97S4@9i7sc, and up to 9Sl2c before noon.
Around csc the market got considerable sup
port. Logan Mitchell. Kenneth, Hopkins
were good buyers the whole time. William
Dunn had cable which reported that the
wheat shipments from Russia last week were
$4,000 bu, and from India /. 136, 900 bu. or
from both 5,096,000 bu, against 2,23S, eco bu
ahipped the previous week. The same dis
patch reported the total exports of wheat
cable reported that France would suspend all
duties on wheat. During the last hour the
market was easy and declined, sold 10 and
closed at 9734c. Hutchinson's brokers sold
freely above yS4c, but were generally buyers
under 9S apparently doing scalling business.
Corn was unsettled but inclined to weak
ness, with only moderate business during
most of the session. AT the start there was
firm tone manifested. The small receipts
and the liberal Withdrawals from store, to-
gether with the frosts in Iowa, Illinois and
Nebraska, had a tendency to make shorts
cover. The demand was soon satisfied how
ever. and offerings becoming more liberal
the market weakened and sold off. October
opened at 54c. against 535sc at the close on
Saturday, broke to 55Ssc, rea;eed 10 sac,
dropped to S5l2c, steadied some, but became
very weak during the last hour. broke to
531sc, advanced to 53S4c and then near the

to contain nothing but little seaweed
and some pebbles. This is an important
point,a and one on which the commission
ers have received special instructions.
During the last conference at Washing
ton Secretary Blaine held that the most
serious reason for stringent restrictions
on the taking of seals in Behring sea
was that the mother seals. which, dur
ing the sucking season, swan fifty
miles every day to the feeding grounds,
would be taken in great numbers and
the young seals which they left on the
shores of the island would perish unless
the mother seals were protected. He
said that the race of seals would thus
soon be eXterminated.
Sir Charles Upper argued against
this that, as matter of fact, the mother
seals never left their young in the suck
ling season, which only lasted twelve
days, during which time the mothers
took 10 food at all. Secretary Blaine
ridiculed this idea as one unheard of in
natural history. hut Sir Charles pointed
out that the seal, as alternating ami
NAL, had store of fat on which it could
well subsist for long time. The report
that the stomachs of the mother seals
were found empty bears out Sir Charles
Tupper'S statement.

CHANCE FOR RED TAPE.
An Act of the Mohican Furnishes
the PPeteXt

OTTAWA, Ont. Oct. 5.-Word received
here indicates possibility that the re-
cent seizure of the Canadian schooner
Otto by the United states man-of-war
Mohican in Behrng sea last month may
become the subject of international cor
respondence, if not complications, be-
tween the United States and British
governments. The seizure was not
made for any ihfractlon of the law re-
garding the protection of the seal fish
cries, but owing 10 the fact that there
was some little irregularity in the regis
ter of the Otto. the change in the name
of the owner and captain having not
been entered on the ships papers.
While the United States cruiser had a
right to protect the seal fisheries and
enforce the regulations jointly entered
into with Great Britain i'll Behring sea,
she had no jurisdiction in those waters
to question the regularity of any ships
papers, and the seizure appears TO have
been unWarranted. ~

RICE MILLS IN A TRUST.
English Capitalists and Standard
Oil Men in It

ATLANTA, Ca. Oct. 5.-A movement
is on foot to buy up all the rice mills of
the South and throw them into a trust.
The Standard Oil company and English
capitalists are supposed to be behind
the plan. Between one and two million
dollars Will be required and the working
capital will be S1,000,000. Options have
been secured on the mills at New Or
leans, Savannah, Charleston AMI Will
mingtOn. The only announcement
made when the option was asked for
was that syndicate proposed to buy all
the mills in the country and put in
what is known as the Dutch milling
machinery, which is the kind used in
India. An agent of the syndicate says
the new process will be cheaper than
the old to the planter. and the price of
rice will be lowered so much that the
importers of foreign rice will not be
able to undersell the American.

2Azz!ING the RATES.
The Heavy Grain Movement
to the East Likely to Be
the Cause.
Lines to Chicago From the
West Beginning to Make
Threats.
Missouri Pacific and Great
Northern Are Accused Of
UnfaipneSS.
East-Bound Shipments of a
Week--Along the Rail
Pick-Ups.

CHICAGO, Oct. $50 far from insur-
ing stability of sales. the heavy grain
movement from the West to the East is
likely to bring the decentralization that
has been successfully STAYED off during
the dull portion of the year. This will,
of course, not be due to the tonnage. but
to the fact that all other outlets to the
Seaboard seem to be in greater favor
than Chicago. While the east-bound
shipments of grain seem to be very
large by way of st. Louis, Duluth. New
Orleans and Galveston. the movement
by way of Chicago is lighter than for
years at this season.
The officials of the lines entering
Chicago from the West are beginning
to grumble and make threats. Their
companies have been conservative dur
ing the present season, ignoring the cut
rates that were known to have been
adopted at times by some of their COM
petitors in the belief that such practices
would be discontinued as soon as the
busy season commenced. They now
say that fOrbearance has ceased to be
virtue. and that they cannot afford to
stand by and let other roads absorb
their share of the traffic, on which they
have depended to retrieve the losses of
the year.
Complaints are made that the Mis-
souri, Pacific is cutting grain rates from
the Missouri river. and that the Great
Northern and the st. Paul, Minneapolis
q Omaha are employing unfair means
to divert traffic to Duluth. 1t is even
intimated that one OF two of the Chicago
lines have taken steps to meet this com
petition, and that in few days they
will all be engaged i'll a scramble Tor
business. A Rock Island official said
to-day that the Alton had cut the rate
from Kansas City to meet the rate of
the Missouri Pacific. The Alton people
say they have not reduced the rates as
yet, and when they do it will be an open
reduction. 1t is generally conceded
that the rate situation is critical.

Since then he has spent nothing, and
has kept the money buried. When he
was taken sick $1,000 was found inside

China, and two weeks ago Chong was
taken TO Windsor under Judge Swans
orders. He is now in Toronto. When
Judge Swan gave his decision Chong,
through neglect. did not notify the Brit

the negotiations at Washington con-
tinued. The presidents order and all
