wlLn only one, duu soutncTu SldIcs, tO say nothing of Indiana, Wisconsin and other northern states, which had not been for years represented in the sen. ate, are inaugurating a contest which is not only ruinous to the west, but he believed, to the entire country-not only ruinous but unpatriotic and con- trary to the principles of the party, and in view of these facts he, too, felt constrained to announce his intention of leaving the convention in case of the adoption of a gold standard plank.
 Mir. Brewer replied to Senator Du. bois, saying that the silver senators had practically severed their connec. tion with the repub lican party when they had refused to vote for the Ding ley tariff bill and had announced that the tariff bill could not pass the senate so long as they held the balance of power, unless coupled with a declara. ton for free coinage.
 Senator Cannon pictured in very fine language the hope which had been raised in the breasts of the people of Utah and of the intermountain west by the promises of the republican party; told how the state had oeen re. deemed from the democratic ranks and an overwhelming majority overcome, and all for what? Merely to have all the promises made in behalf of the re. publicans ruthlessly trodden in the mire and ignored at the time of their greatest need for sustaining hand. He had hoped up to the latest moment that this catastrophe should be avert- ed, but If it could not be, he, too, must discontinue to act with the party.

SMALL BREAK IN WHEAT
LcNG-ExPECTED DECLINE FOL-
LOWED INCREASE on THE DANUBE.
Heavy Estimates for Monday Helped
in Reducing the Price OF Corn
Provisions Dull and steady.

CHICAGO Sept. 26.-The long-expected
break in wheat came to-day. Active liq-
uidation urged on by reports of increasing
Danubian and Russian offerings. hammered
the price of December wheat to point
cent below yesterdays close. Other mar
kets show but little change, corn closing
a shade lower oats 4c lower and provi-
sions unchanged to &c lower.
Liverpool once moro showed by further
advance of lad in the price of wheat since
the close of the market yesterday the i'm
portance attached there to the strength of
the market this side. The weeks eX-
ports of wheat and flour from both coasts
were equal to 3S1S646 bushels, without
counting what was shipped from Newport
News. Those We're the influences under
which December, which left off at 67lsc
yesterday, opened this morning at from &c
to 67ssc The firmness with which the mar
ket opened did not last long, but it was
renewed by fits and starts during the first
hour. 1t dropped to 669sc and recovered
again to a little over &c several times,
but every time it poked its nose above &c
it was hammered down again. Long wheat
came out on every hard spot and the eff
feet of so much unloading of long wheat
became clearly apparent as the session
progressed. The price of December worked
gradually down until about the close it
was lighting to keep above 66c. 1t took
a plunge to 657sc, but worth 661sc at
the end. A dispatch from Antwerp reported
that prices had fallen off there on Increased
offerings from Danubian and Russian
ports. This perhaps had more depressing
effect on values than anything else and
was really the cause of most of the liquida-
ton which was SO freely INDUCED in.
The enormous estimates for Monday were
influential in the weak feeling at the close
in the corn market. May opened 1sc higher
at 25SsG2512c, declined to 251sc and closed
at 25hc
Oats were fairly active, more interest
than usual being manifested. The decline
in wheat started liquidation and prices
gradually declined. May opened &c higher
at 19126l195sc, declined to l944c and closed
easy at 19A@19$sc.
Provisions were dull, but fairly steady
during the greater part of the session,
leaving off, however, shade below the
level of the previous days closing prices
except for October lard, which showed a
.O5c improvement. Packers were liberal
sellers and Mondays estimated receipts
were large.
Estimated receipts for Monday-Wheat,
37o cars; corn, LOO cars; oats, 40 cars;
hogs, 600 head.

LOCAL GRAIN AND PRODUCE.
Trade More Satisfactory, with Firmer
Tone to Prices

While trade in the week ending Sept &c did
not equal that of the preceding week the vol
of business was much satisfactory
than that of many weeks. On the wholesale
streets a cheerful feeling is noticeable and
all hopeful that the fall and early winter
trade will in measure offset the dull bust
of the first eight months of 1896. In values
in several lines a tendency to higher prices is
noticeable. Especially will this remark apply to
goods which come into daily consumption, fruits
vegetables, provisions and products grain
Irish potatoes are &c barrel higher than thirty
days ago. Choice apples are soc higher. and as
receipts drop off further advance in prices of
such articles come under the food line will
