THE COAL FIND.
San Antonio is in Earnest About the Ex-
tension to the Llano Iron Fields.

SAN ANTONIO, Sept. News from
Fredericksburg, the county seat of Gil
lespie county, one hundred miles
northwest of this city, says that in
boring for artesian water on the ranch
of Charles Kuhn, at a depth of 900
feet two-foot vein of true bituminous
coal was struck. The development of
the Llano iron region and the estab-
lishment of a new Birmingham de-
Ponds upon the correctness of this
find. If it is true vein the north

and Arkansas Pass willie be made. An
assured supply Of proper fuel Is all
that has delayed the extension

TYLER Sept. 4.-Great changes in
International and Great Northern
circles may be expected shortly. The
dumbness that just now affiicts all
concerned is phenomenal and COM
plete. Your reporter, however, has
been able to CLEAN a few straws which
undoubtedly show which way the
wind sets. Judge McCord has set the
2lst as the time when some party en-
titled to the possession of the road
must show up. This means that there
must be Federal court receiver, or
Jay Gould, the Missouri, Kansas and
Texas Railway company and the
mortgage and bondholders must come
to an agreement and effect COM
promise so the road can go back to
the International and Great
Northern railway. Col. w.
S. Herndon recently resigned his
position as general solicitor for
the receivers since which and about
the time Mr.. Gould was in st. Louis,
he has been to st. Louis, Chicago and
the east, returning on the 1st instant.
1t is no secret that under the new re-
gime, whoever it may be, Colonel
Herndon will be in it and the others
will be out. The exact position he will
occupy is not known, whether receiver,
general manager OF general solicitor,
but the genial colonel is without doubt
one of the oldest railroad men and
lawyers in the south and is enrapport
thoroughly with the eastern powers
that be, and "pizen" against the pow
ers that are about not to be. He will
certainly alight high up.

HOW TO USE COTToLeNE.

Directions are clear and simple.
Use Cottolene exactly the same as
lard, but use only one half the
quantity of Cottolene that would
be required of lard.
Remember Cottolene is the
same price as lard and thus you
save lust half your money.

TRADING NOTHING TO BRAG ABOUT,
BUT VALUES SHOW IMPROVEMENT.

| A Few Buying Orders Start Bull Move
ment-The Market Narrow, but Stronger
-Luster Doomed on News From the
Mine-other Features.
| So far as trading was concerned there was
almosta dead calm in the local stock market
| yesterday. There were six sales, but they
| aggregated only IS shares, of which so were
| Luster. 1t was a strong market, however,
nearly everything bid on being higher. Lus-
ter was the feature of the day, selling up
from IA to 14H and closing at Is bid, with the
demand unsupplied. Reports were to the
effect that the board was in receipt of good
news, but would not give it out until after
the regular weekly meeting on Wednesday.
There seems to be no doubt that the big mill
is in full operation and producing good re-
suits.
Electric was stronger on the prevailing be-
lief that to-morrow'S meeting will result IN
setting the company on its feet and putting
it in position to increase its business at less

was due to the attempt to place few buy
ing orders. So soon as their existence be.
came known sellers ran up the price. An
other cause was a report that the pressure
at some of the wells was increasing. The
fractions were dull and practically un-
changed.
The upward tendency of the market has
been noted. The good condition of the rail-

June than there were in May las compared
with 1S90), and increases were larger and
more numerous. Total earnings of l2S rail-
roads for June aggregate $Sl, ,5s2, 43i, an in
crease of ~ per cent over June, $780, which
in turn gained per cent over the June
total in 1882 The Eastern and granger roads
make the best showings.
The bond market maintains a listless con-
dition, the cause of which is very simple,
but few people think about it,. A man with
money to loan can put it into bonded mort
gage, can obtain the best possible security,
city improved real estate, valued ut more
than twice the amount of the loan, and can
receive 8 to 6 per cent on his money. This is
as secure q way to invest money as one can
find A man can loan money on giltedged
collateral for SIX or eight months and get

pie bother with railroad bonds at to per

DULLNESS CONTINUES.
The Outside Public Holds Aloof and Orders
to Purchase Are Few-BuI Investors
Discouraged by Crop Reports From All

The Outside Public Holds Aloof and Orders
to Purchase Are Few-Bur Investors
Discouraged by Crop Reports From All
Over the Country.
CHICAGO-The dullness in everything
dealt in on the Board of Trade apparent on
Saturday continued to-day. The outside
public as usual when values are declining,
are holding aloof. The brilliant crop pros
poets serve to discourage bull investments
and the bears have their eyes turned toward
Russia and India, where much damage is
reported and do not dare to enter upon an
aggressive campaign. Wheat opened dull,
weak and lower, and there was not life
enough in it to f1uctuate with any vim in
either direction. The feeling was undoubt-
edly bearish, however. and but for pur-
chases by Pardridge and others to cover
shorts, it would doubtless have gone lower.
The weather map shows avorable conditions
for the winter wheat harvest, with heavy
receipts of an excellent quality of new
wheat at all winter wheat markets. Re-
ceipts of wheat here were 305 cars,
iedo received 2sS cars, with elo Of
them contracts. st. Louis got Ill COO bushels
and Minnea polls reported 2SS cars. English
free arrivals, with a prefect of a steady in
crease had a depressing effect most of the
session. Later, however, when the returns
from the visible supply points began to
SOlliS vi a DlS ucCTtdSo,
the market became a little firm, but was
held in check by the large estimate-575 cars
for tomorrow. In addition to Pardridge'S
purchases to scalp a profit on his shorts,
Logan and S. V. White were fair buvers,
while Baxter and Baldwin sold freely. Out
side of the transactions by these firms bust
ness was extremely sluggish. Even the
local scalpers could see no margin of profit
under existing conditions and remained
quiet while the representatives of commits
sion houses sat dejectedly on the top step of
al, N.,I1 1-,.1 ~
orders which never came. The market held
within range of ssGsS2sc till within ten
minutes of the close, which fell to
S73Ic and closed there. Like wheat corn
started dull, weak and lower. The offerings
were liberal but the demand was meagre.
The favorable crop weather, the weakness
in wheat and the aspect of large receipts
with weak and lower cables were the super
inducing causes. 1t declined for time,
covering by shorts, a sharp demand for cash
corn, and smaller estimated receipts for to-
morrow, there was sharp advance but all
of it was not held till the close. September
opened at 50sZc, sold to 501sc, advanced to
5l5sc and closed at 5l5sc.
Oats were dull ana steady with fluctua-
tions confined within range of sc for
September.
Provisions were firm on the strong market
at the yards, and good line of outside buy
ing, and later, in sympathy with corn, Sep
vanced to $40 60, but receded to $40 so, the
same price as at the close on Saturday. Lard
closed PIC lower. and ribs &c higher.
The Leading futures ranged as follows. as

brought that stock again to the 'front.',
though 1T was unable to retain all OF It's ad-
vance Realizing on the advance set IN
toward noon and everything reacted, the
downward movement being helped Dy
rumors of further gold shipments, which
evidently had their origin in bear sources,
put the prices of the forenoon were NOT
maintained and the early gains were IN
most cases neutraliZed. st. Paul ana LOUIS
vile were the most prominent in the AFTER,
noon drive, but the only stock whlch snoWeo
sugar, which, late in the day. fell on raploly
with some animation. The market, now
ever, remained devoid of special feature
and finally closed very dull and steady at
insignificant changes for the day. Sugar
lost 1S per cent, but all other changes were
Tor the smallest fractions.
Inc demand for railroad bonds was rather
more urgent. and the trading for the day
reached $7O5,000, with the Atchison issues
and oregon Improvement 5s leading IN the
dealings. Like stocks however, there was
no pronounced tone in the market, and the
changes were confined to the smallest frac-
tlons in all cases. The changes for the day
are therefore without significance.
government bonds have been dull and
and steady.
State bonds have been entirely neglected.
The Post says: So much embarrassment
mas lately been occasioned to various ra1ic
road enterprises by the fiabby condition of
the bond market tn an experiment in
floating n new and heavy issue of bonds
would have particularly interesting bear
ing just now on the general SITUATION. hu-
mors have been current for week or more
that the slight movement observed in the
local bond market would be followed by
large offering of new railway securities. 1t
is now stated with some positiveness that
the rumors have had reference to the Great
Northern Railway and that this company
will within a short time offer SO. 600, ,00J new
bon DIS for subscription here and in London.
II this experiment is tried it will afford a
valuable test of the real temper of the in
veStment community.
