Mercantile Lines-The General Drift of
Prices Upward-Breadstuffs Firmer and
More Active.
WEDNESDAY,, Sept %.
The distribution of general merchandise
from this point continues on a fairly liberal
scale and merchants say the demand is
steadily increasing. Drummers who have
returned from their routes of late note an
excellent condition of affairs throughout
their territory and predict a big trade for
the balance of the year. Business will
likely slow up little from now on until
after the turn OF the month and the quar-
terly settlements, but the outlook for the
final quarter of the year is admitted on all
hands to be unusually bright AS rule the
markets are firm, with the general tendency
OF prices upward.
Wheat Is firmer, oats shade higher. corn
lower and hay very firm. Flour is in better
demand and firmer, but prices remain un-
changed.
Dairy products are strong, with the ten
dency of cheese upward; eggs are a little un-
settled. the extremes of prices being lS@2lc;
apples and potatoes are firmly held: veg eGa-
with an early advance in coffee probable;
provisions are dull and heavy; fish are tend
ing upward; beans are higher; chestnuts are
lower; poultry is in better demand; tallow
and beeswax are stronger and oils are show
ing All advancing tendency.
Wagon hay is ruling unusually high. Sales
have been made recently ut $50.

Mr.. Yerkes has returned from Europe and
insiders have started another upward move
ment in West and North Chicago street rail-
ways. The outside public is mot in it," but
they doubtless will be as soon as prices have
had a substantial advance. The public can
never be induced to take hold until prices
are pretty near the top. When the top is
about reached they are sure to be eager buy
ers, and that is always the time that insiders
are unloading their stock on the 'lambs"
This is the old-time practice, but 1t always
works to q charm, and the great public is
lust as gullible as Ii the scheme had never
been worked before. Baron Yerkes talks
freely about the street railways
and he claims that there 1s no
prospect of any consolidation of the differ
ent railway lines or any new issue of stock.
According to Mr.. Yerkes the street railways
are doing a larger business than ever be-
lore and this statement is true. He also
claims that the Philadelphia clique are buy
ing shares simply because they are regarded
as first-class Investments. The present out
look promises higher prices, but the clique
will probably sell considerable stock on the
advances, and this may he expected to
cause a break. In short, a scalping market
is generally looked for, and it is net the part
of prudence to trade on margins, as auctu-
ations are likely to be very large. Those
who buy Tor cash and lock their shares up
will, in all probability, make handsome
profits If they hold them long enough, but
margin operators are likely to come to grief

Lively Bidding for Reading on the
Renewed Rumor That the Coal

NEW YoHK, March %.
In the stock market to-day the upward move
ment in Sugar common stock continued until 1t
crossed the preferred but the latter afterward
moved forward and remained slightly above the
common. This morning Influenced railroad
stocks and firm temper was notable from the
outset. The renewed rumor that the governor
of New Jersey had signed the bill legalizing
the coal deal created for a Tina lively bidding
for Reading and in the resultant rise Jersey
Central and Delaware and Hudson fully sympa-
thized, though the transactions were small. A
few buying orders in Lake Shore caused it to
rise sharply nearly per cent, while Michigan
Central rose per cent. and Canada Southern
over 9 per cent The grangers were rather
more prominent in the afternoon. but their
movements were not SO marked as those In the
stocks mentioned and few specialties, among
which Pullman and Ohio Southern were most
marked. The reactions from the best figures
were generally made up again In the afternoon
except in Michigan Central, tho buying being
for beth sides of the account. The market
opened at insignificant changes from last
nights figures and the upward movement met
no check except in the partial reactions among
the leading shares and the list as rule closed at
the highest prices, the market being quiet, but
firm.
Railroad bonds were little more active and

RETURNED FROM CHILL.
Miss Mamie Holcomb, Daughter of
the Late Henry A. HOlcOmb.

Miss Mamie Holcomb, Daughter of
the Late Henry A. HolcOmb.
Miss Mamie R. Holcomb, daughter of
Henry A. Holcomb, formerly of this city,
who died at Iquique, Chilli, last June, ar
rived in this city Monday from Chilli. Miss
Holcomb's father was brother of ex Mayor
George F. Holcomb, n. S. Holcomb and
Charles w. Holeomb. He and another
brother. W. Clifford Holcomb, went to
Chilli about fifteen years ago and engaged
in business there. When the late insur-
rection broke out the sympathies of both
brothers were with the opposition or anti
Balmaceda party. W. Clifford Holcomb
was unmarried, while Henry A. Holcomb
had wife and two sons, Charles n, aged
seventeen, and younger boy aged nine,
and daughter, Miss Mamie r. Holcomb,
who has returned to this city.
When the instruction broke out Miss
Holcomb was sent down the coast below
Valparaiso, in order to be away from the
seat of hostilities. On June % last Henry
A. Holcomb died of the fever. Only two
months before Mrs. Holcomb died of the
combs death his brother, w. Clifford Hol-
comb, succambed to the disease. Several
weeks later Miss Holcomb returned to her
home and learned of the death of her
parents and uncle. and also learned that
their property had been confscated. Her
older brother, Charles Holcomb, had
fought on the side of the opposition party,
and had risen to the rank of first lieuten-
ant.
Through the gratitude of friend for
whom Henry Holcomb had done kind
ness, the young son was sent on here, ar
irving last November. Miss Holcomb
stayed there awhile to see if her fathers
property could be recovered. She has
given up hope, however. and has come
north. Her brother Charles remains to
serve in the army.

The Lat. Ex.Mayor shelton.


To the Editor of the JOURNAL AND COURIER
I noticed in yesterdays Register good
tribute to the late ex-Msyor Shelton, OBJ
tanned in an interview with our ex tax col
lector, Mr.. Hillhouse, who was long
warm personal friend of the deceased and
qualified to speak of his inaexible honesty
as public official, having been associated
with him intimately for years in official
positions in our city and town affairs and
Mr.. Hillhouse having been also for some
time chairman of the democratic town
committee. In the main Mr.. Hillhouse is
reported very cor.sstly. But one error

OF the two democratic tickets was elected.

town agent we have ever had l remamber one

difference OF Just one cent, and he worked Iaree

Mr.. Shelton was for years a great friend

fairs, into which it's accounts had beer

management. He was business

ment and excellent executive ability
He was rigidly honest, infiexibly SO, and t.
illustrate he would go no further than tn
law and his duty as public official woult
permit, even in q case of charity, but b.
would make up the deficiency by putting
his hand in his pocket and tiding over tn
