MISCELLANEOUS.
DRY GODS

New York, June 26.-Succeeding the
large sales of bleached cOttons in the
last ten days the market is more quiet,
yet there is n feeling of greater conf
dence and some buyers from distance
are picking up moderate stocks of au.
tumn goods.
Prints have done well through adj
vance purchases and large sales are re-
corded. For the remainder of the month
and until after Independence Day little
business is expected until monthly ac-
counts are closed. The greatest fac
tor to more active trade is the contem-
plated shut down of five million spndles
that only await details to go into effect.

FINE SHOWING OF YALE MEN

FINE SHOWING OF YALE MEN.
this morning: The Yale mems showing
on Wednesday fairly surprised the critics
here, and it was abundantly evident that
they will take lot more beating than was
at first expected. When they row 80
stroke to the minute their stroke is fine
and powerful, and as their recovery is
somewhat smarter than it was, although
there is still room for improvement in this
respect. they get Il fine pace. If they can
only keep steady at this hight rate of
striking for long time they will probably
be found very close to the winners at the
finish.

LIVE STOCK.
CHICAGO.

Chicago, June 26.-Comparatively few
cattle are now going under $3.50, and
sales are largely from that figure up to
S4.60. Heavy cattle have stopped com
ing in large numbers and are selling from
$4.15 to $3.50, according to quality. The
stockers and feeders trade has continued
moderate at ruling prices. Canning stuff
sold slow at low prices, but good fat cows
and heifers were active and strong. Bulls
were steady and calves slow, Il few selling
as high as $3.50. Texas cattle We're
plentiful and active at steady prices and
choice fed Texans, averaging around 1873
pounds, sold above $500.
Hogs-Heavy sold largely at $1,000
3.15, and butchers weights at $4,000
3.25. The extreme range for heavy
weights was $2.S5M3.25. Hogs are still
running largely to heavy weights. The
demand is chiefly for the light weight
bacon stuff which is limited in supply and
commands good premium. Big large
hogs sell badly.
Sheep-The great numbers of common
sheep and lambs offered on the market
have sold badly, but good flocks sold well
and prime sheep brought advances of 1oC0
25c. The market was active and strong
today. sheep selling at S1.73M2.oO for
interiors up to S3.50M4.25 for fair to eX-
ira. Texans, $340M3.65. Lambs in de-
mand at $3.25M3.50 for best; common
