rHEiR NEW STABLE.
Jno. r. Shelton & Son at Home to Their
Friends.

yesterday and are now lat home" to
the public. 1t will be remembered
that these gentlemen had the misfor-
tune to lose their stable by fire a few
weeks ago, and while awaiting the
erection of new and more com
modious one on the same lot, they
rented the Gorham stable on Com
merce, and have since, until yester-
day, been conducting their livery
business at that point.
AS soon after the fire as matters
could be arranged the erection Of the
new stable was begun. 1t is built on
a plan entirely original with w. r.
Shelton, the junior member OF
the firm, and the gentleman who
gives the business his personal atten-
ton. The stable is 100 by 6S
feet in the clear and will
accommodate fifty horses and all the
vehicles used in the business. 1t is
brick and covered with a sheet iron
roof. There are two entrances from
Commerce street, giving ample room
for large loads of hay to enter easily,
and furnishing plenty of room for
in-going and out-coming vehicles to
pass without touching. The Office is
situated between the two main en-
frances and has doors and windows
on either side, and in the
rear furnishing means Of
exit to any part of the building. The
building is one and one half stories
high and the half story is nicely
floored and divided off into compart.
ments for various purposes. A drive
way extends from the ground floor
to the upper story, inclined enough
to admit easy passage for horses
The design is to keep the buggies or
the upper floor and they are drawn
up by the horses as they come il
from the road.
The provender will also be store
on the upper floor Immediately Ovel
the stalls. The stable is roOmy, wei
ventilated, and is provided with ex
cellent stalls for the horses and its
whole design shows that Rudolph
Shelton has an excellent idea of tht
way a livery stable should be con
structCd. In case Of fire there are large
doors in the rear on the upper tioOl
where buggies can he carried out il
that direction, and there is little
probability of any of them ever be
ing burned.
In the front part of the building
on the upper floor, there are four bed
rooms, which will be occupied by
the proprietors.
This work was begun June 20, anC
although the workmen were delay
ed waiting for material the finishing
touches are now being put on Tho
building. The brick contract was
let to Mr.. Daniel, while Capt. Will
had the contract for the wood work
They have pushed the work all th'
time they We're at it, hut they think
it ought to have been completed t
week ago.
John f. Shelton & Son have beer
successful in the livery business, and
they are better prepared now thar
ever TO supply the demands of theii
trade. The boys made a run on
them last night before they had
things arranged and carried off every
horse and buggy in stock, but re.
turned them this morning, ana they
are now ready for another rush
People having horses to board, OF
those who want to hire good livery
can always find w. r. Shelton at his
post ready to serve them.

The Alien Land Bill.

ECltor Gazette:
l attended the open meeting of the Cham
Der of Commerce and business men at the
Board of Trade building Saturday evening
and ] must admit my surprise at the posi-
ton taken by Representative w. Swayne
respecting the alien land bill. Judging from
his attitude, we have fallen into strange
ways in Texas. Mr.. Swayne says he voted
for the bill as it stands, conscientiously be-
lieving it to be a good law, and he would do
the same thing again. This position would
be all right if there were nothing objection
able in the law, but when any sensible man
can be shown that the measure directly in
terferes with the rights of private property,
and injuriouSly affects not only the land
owner who may want to borrow money and
the alien corporations that are willing to
lend it at rs low if not a lower rate of in
terest than that at which money can be had
from banks or home corporations. but fur
Their results in disturbing all titles descend
ing from any corporate body hereafter, it
Swould seem to the writer that conscien-
stious representative might be made to see
the evil as well as the good in the law.
: Moreover, the portion of the law causing
all the trouble can be of no possible benefit
to the state or any body living in it; at least
should like to have Mr.. Swayne tell me
what advantage is to be gained by the con-
tinuance on the statute books of section 10.
To disinterested observer it looks like the
survival of a species of narrow-minded
Observation-Disclosures, and in the present in
stance it works as q first-class boomerang,
hurting our home people more than the
alien mortgage companies.
But further on in his speech MIR Swayne
suggested. at one time, ways by which the
alien companies could evade the law,
and at another time a way by which
the law could be amended-rather an incon-
sistency when contrasted with conscien-
tious support of the whole bill. And to
make matters still worse, Mr. Swayne said
that repeal of the measure could only be
obtained by the people getting down on
their knees to the lawmakers who voted for
this absurd law.
l think Mr.. Swayne mistakes the temper
of the good people of the state of Texas.
They viii demand just treatment at the
hands of the lawmakers in strong but tenn
perate language, as becomes men used to
freedom, and in time the good sense Of the
governor and the legislature will concede
them justice.

Special to the Gazette.
New ORLEANS, LA, June 29.-Atwood,
Violet q Co. say of futures: Liverpool,
at the opening this morning, showed dis
position TO improve further, but before the
closing prices had declined 2-64 below
those of Saturday evening. There was also
considerable activity in spots, as was evi-
denced by the sale of $1,000 bales, but the
TACT that no advance was established shows
that the demand was freely met and that
holders were willing sellers at quotations
The government report the past week
shows that the conditions were nearly all
that could be desired throughout the cotton
belt and that the plant is progressing well
This fact had quite an influence on the mar
ket and to it is mainly attributed the de-
cline OF to-day which in New York is about
points and here II points The sentiment
Is becoming bearish again as it is beginning
to be realized that holders of cotton are
ready to meet the views of buyers, and it is
feit that If the present crops condition con-
tlnues there will be an increasing DISPOSE

Governments, Stocks and Bonds.

New YORK, June 29.-Talk on the course
of the market over Sunday was most dis
couraging, but while there was consider
able selling, as expected, it had more the
appearance of being done to buy up than
the liquidation OF long stocks, and most of
the leading shares were supported, if not
by insiders, by the covering of shorts. The
weak points in the list were Northern Pa
citc preferred and the coalers. The open
ing was rather heavy, but while selling
was more pronounced than usual of late
there was a sustaining force which even
forced a small advance in some stocks, and
only in those mentioned were declines of
any moment. Whatever the pressure was
abated toward noon, though it was renewed
again after p. m.
A rally occurred in the meantime in
which only partial recovery of the losses
was made. Late dealings We're marked by
the old dullness. A frmer tone again
brought back a portion of the early losses.
Trading, however, lacked feature, and the
market siSsed dull and firm at Insignificant

Pork Packing and Provisions.

The Cincinnati Price Current says: 1.-THE
weeks packing in the West has been 1885,
600 hogs. against 225.000 the preceding
week, and 10000 last year. The total from
March is ), $40, 600. against 4, 265, 900 year
ago. The decrease is lis, 900 for the week
and IDS, 600 for the season, compared with
last year There has been deficiency COM
pared with last year steadily since the first
week in May, averaging more than one
hundred thousand hogs per week in num-
Der, and much lighter in weight.
This rate of decrease maintained to the
end of October would indicate decrease
of 2,500, 900 hogs for the summer season. and
this is result not unlikely to be reached.
The reduction the coming two weeks will
probably not be so large as recently shown,
as the comparison will be with period of
decided contraction of supplies last year as
contraSted with the movement previously
and subsequently. Prices of hogs at the
close average about the same as week ago
for places operating. Liberal receipts of
hogs at Chicago on some OF the days the
past week have had tendency to depress
values of product, and this in turn has
checked the distributive inquiry, which has
been showing some signs of enlargement
recently.
The market has seemed to be more sus-
ceptible to anything of an adverse form,
such as unexpectedly large receipts of hogs
for day or two, than to whatever develops
favorably to the trade. Values of product
have suffered some decline during the
week. and at the close are 42jS cents per
barrel on pork and 221s@25 cents per 100
pounds on lard and short-rib sides for July
delivery lower than a week ago at Ceicago.
The lowest point, however, was not so low
as in the preceding week, Exports of pro-
duct for the week made a better showing
than for several weeks, and exceeded cor
responding period last year, the increase
being in bacon.
The following shows the lowest, highest
and closing prices of leading articles at
Chicago for the week, for deliveries indi-
Gated, with also the closing week ago and
