A SOUsA NIGHT
An Enormous Audience and Unbounded En-

An Enormous Audience and Unbounded En-
thuslasm the Features
About three thousand people occupied
all the available space at Hazards pavilion
last night on the occasion of the third con-
cert given by Sousa's band here. The pro-
gram was of particular interest, in that it
was almost entirely confined to pieces of
Sousa's own composition, which covered
the work of the last sixteen years, during
which the composer and director has
reached fame perhaps unparalleled in
night was boundless. The ladies' orches-
pavilion and their quarters were bedecked
with national and floral emblems, pre-
senting very attractive tout en-
semble. The ladies we're responsible
for beautiful floral piece in the shape of
harp presented to the March King. En-
cores were, of course, in order, and the old
favorites were demanded and redcmauded.
The encores provided opportunity for the
principal soloists, Mr. Pryor. trombone,
Mr. Morrmans, saxophone, Mr.. Mantea,
euphoniurn, and Messrs. Bode and HiQ-
gins, cornet. The clever conceit, The
Band Came Back, was the occasion of in
Producing each OF the many instruments in
their individual excellence. Blanchard's
gavotte, Eschscholtzia, was again given, a
tribute from Mr.. Sousa of the worth
of the composition. Almost all'a Of
Sousa's best known marches. SO full of fire
and spirit, we're given, and the popularity
OF Sousa night was emphasized in Los
Angeles, the composer evidently realizing
the sincerity OF the compliment.

TYPOGRAPHICAL UNION

Members at . Heeting Discuss Prospective
Legislation
There was largely attended meeting of
Typographical Union No. ia on Sunday
afternoon at Council of Labor hall. Eleven
cards were deposited. The membership of
this body has increased over thirty the
past two months. The following is an ex
tract from the report of the state of trade
committees:
Some of the legislatures in the eastern
tory to use the union label on
all official printing. The value of
such law in California is too
apparent to need argument. We believe
that efforts should be made in this
direction. Influence should be brought to
and candidates for assemblymen and
senators pledged to vote for the passage of
such law. This is not partisan politics,
but purely industrial policy. To carry this
idea to a successful issue, we need the CO.
operation of other craftsmen, and to secure
this. we recommend tina. the union instruct
its delegates to the Council of Labor to in
troduce and use their best efforts to carry
resolution calling convention of trade-
unionists of this city and county. First, to
consider what legislation to demand at the
hands of the next legislature; second, to
appolnI committees to present their de-
mands to the conventions, and third, to
work for the election of candidates who
will pledge themselves as favorable toward
such legislation.
y. Il. Holman, secretary of the Council
OF Labor, was introduced by the president
and addressed the convention. A vote of
thanks was rendered the speaker.
The Carpenters union passed resolu-
tons at their last meeting similar to those
adopted by the printers, for calling a dele.
gate convention of all the trades Unions of
this city. The Council of Labor will take

Chicago. ILL.,, Aug. 27.-The greater por-
ton of today's session of the wheat market
was governed by a generally weak tone
The principal exception to this feellng was

reasons for which were the reported I'M

ket at New York. The dread of the sep

fling back until the feeling changed to that
of fear, About two hours after the open
ing drive was made at corn by local pro-
fessional that markets weakness extending
to wheat December wheat opened at 500
6Osc, declined to 59c, closing at 59A@59ase,
1sc under yesterday. Cash wheat was weak
\and 1c lower.
Corn-Dullncss attended with weakness
for corn today. This market was raided
towards noon by local professional, prices
declining somewhat sharply. May corn
opened at 25a4c, declined to 25q25lsc, closing
at 253sc,. &c under yesterday cash corn
was weak and 12c per bushel lower.
The weakness of the surrounding markets
did not seriously affect oats. Early in the
day oats were sold short very freely, and as
the crop will fully realize previous anttcipa-
tions this "short'' interest takes advantage
of every opportunity to cover. The strength
of oats is easily traceable to this CONDITION.
May oats closed Nc under yesterday. Cash
cats were steady to Ac per bushel lower.

SUMS Cotton Review.

New York. Aug. 27-The Suns cotton re-
decline of 8 to points, with sales of 240,6 500
bales.
Today's features: Liverpool started the
decline today by sending lower cables. The
liquidation of long stuff was renewed, and
stop orders were reached which contributed
to the weakness. There was a rally at one
time in which the loss was recovered and a
small advance established, but later on
prices reacted again and declined. New Or
leans sold all day, though some buying or
ders were received from that market to-
ward the close. Mohr, Hannemann & Co
were large sellers. The crop is conflicting
and estimates now range anywhere from
100000 to 100000 bales, though conserva-
tive people agree that the figures of the
yield will be 5000 000
The receipts for the week. though LIBERAL
will not be as large as was expected early
in the week. The total for the week is now
estimated at about $1,000 bales, against
previous estimates of 1000 900 bales. 1t was
reported that Neill Brothers will issue
bearish circular, but whatever effect this
report had in Liverpool 1t did not cut much
of a figure in the speculation here.

MARKETS BY TELEGRAPH.
Cotton Letter.


New York, Aug. -(Special)-Cotton,
after falling nearly a cent pound from the
highest point seemed to touch bottom to-
day. January, after opening at TIT and SELL
ing up to 49, declined to 7.64, but the de-
mand at the decline soon lifted prices and
January closed at 7.74@775 with the tone
steady. The feeling after the close was
bullish and 7.76 was freely bid for January.
The decline was precipitated by the eager
offerings of spot cotton for many points
south, together with forced liquidatiop<of
some enormous Wall street holdings The
room traders who are always ready to join
in any decided movement of the market in
either direction turned free sellers, and the
pressure became more than the bulls could
withstand but the liquidation is about over.
Those of the German bears who did not
cover their shorts yesterday did so today.
The causes which produced the sharp adj
vance of last week are still in large meas
ure operative, and everybody seems to eX-
pect and to favor better market If the
south would only be little less hasty in
forcing the crop to market the loss of the
last four days nigh, speedily be more than
recovered.
