WALL STREET SPECULATION
Dealings Still Slow and the Prices Tend
Downward
A Little Rise in Foreign Exchange and Small
Supply of Cotton Bills Are Unfa-
vorable Factors

NEW YORK, Oct. 90. -Speculation to-
day was fiat and uninteresting. Dealings
slightly exceeded yesterday, but tie dis
tribution was relatively much wider.
Prices fell almost without interruption.
Com missions were again very scarce and
the traders accordingly made prices.
News was scarce, but the movements in
industrials and few of the active rail-
road stocks were attended by gossips or
rumrs purportlng to affect their position
In the market. The most important IN
fluence having general bearing was a re-
covery in the rates of foreign exchange.
due to the disposition of houses having
large amunts OF exchange available to
hold ont for the best rates obtainable.
The supply of cotton bills was also light
er than anticipated. The granger shares
were affected by reports of continued
drought and of frosts at the west. The
southwestern shares were again depress ed
bv technical estimates OF lighter earnings
from the shortage in the cotton crop.
Lower prices in domestic and foreign su-
CARS and speculation as TO the amount
OF raw material held by the American
Sugar Refineries company we're response
BILE for the pronounced weakness in the
market for the stock OF that company.
The market opened dull and lower. A
temporary upward furry set in early,
based entirely upon covering purchases.
Subsequently reaction began which was
practically unrlieved up to the close. Su-
gar declined 3.s, leading in the losses.
The final prices were at the lowest ii g
ures of the day.
The movement of bond prices in the
early dealings was somewhat erratic, but
later the trend Of prices was downward.
Total sales, 81, 1868, 900. Atchison ADJUST
ment, when issued, declined "a per cent.

CHICAGO, Oct. 23.-Wheat dull, but
mainland q firm undertone and aver
aged slightly higher than it closed last
night. 1t kept within "a very narrow
rangs, however. Gables showed a fair
amount OF tirmness abroad and there was
some export demand at the seaDoard.
Another thing which helped the market
was the strength in corn. The deliveries
in the northwest were also smaller. Even
with the extreme dizziness in trade these
conditions served to keep the market
finn, especially as there was very little
selling pressure. December sold early
at 6OH, gradually up to 6OH, when it
eased off and closed at 60M.
Corn showed decided strength in the

The readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at least
one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all Its stages, and
that is Catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure
is The only positive cure known to the
medical fraternity. Catarrh bein a
constitutional disease, requires q con
sututlonal treatment. Halls Catarrh
Cure is taken internally, acting direct
~ upon the blood aud mucous surfaces
OF the system, thereby destroying the
foundation OF the disease, and giving
the patient strength by guiding up the
constitution and assisting nature in do
Ing its work. The proprietors have
SO much faith in its curative powers
that they offer One Hundred Dollarstor

EDITOR STAR-The following ar.
ticle appeared in the STAR of Aug
ust 18th, 1875. 1t was written by
Mr.. A. w. Skinner, and so highly
did | appreciate it then that clip
ped it from the paper and pasted
1t in scrapbook.
The primary election came off,
if | mistake not, on the 9TH of Au-
gust and this article appeared in
the first issue Of the STAR thereaf-
ter. Its anthor, Mr.. A. w. Skin
ner, was then a defeated candidate
Tor Circuit Clerk, and now |, a de
feated candidate for Circuit Clerk,
wish to reproduce it as embodying
my sentiments as applicable to the
situation today:
"The preliminary canvass being end
ed, and the nominations for the various
Offices to be filled at the ensuing cleo
tlnn having been made by the system
adopted by the party in convention,
the first duty of every Dem ocrat is to
preserve intact the harmony of the
party IN its original purity. Much of
this duty of harmonizing any little diff
erences that may have arisen IN the
primary canvass, and of bringing the
united strength of the party to the sup
port of the whole ticket, devolves upon
The defeated candidates, and depends,
in measure, upon their action. They
can and must control their friends, so
that there will be no boiling, no i'll
feelings-nothlng that will prove detri-
mental to general party success at the
coming election. Whether We have
our particular choice or not, it is GER
tainly the sacred duty of every Demo-
crat to rally to the support of the tick
ct just placed in the field by their own
action. All personal preferences and
minor differences must be sunk into
oblivion, and universal good feeling
and harmony of action main aimed
throughout the entire canvass. Let
us all submit to the will of the people
and support the peoples choice that
victory may perch upon our banners,
and the principles of truth, honor and
political virtue triumph in the land.
Defeated candidates, look to your duty.
In the languageof Mr.. Skinner,
Defeated candidates, look to your
duty.

The undersigned has forwarded
