HILL FOR CHAIRMAN

Chicago, july At is settled as far as
anything can be that the national com
mittee will name Senator Hill for tenn
porary chairman. 1t is also ascertained
that the silver men will not accent Mr.
Hill and will probably vote on tempo
rary chairman of their own. Senator
Money, of Mississippi, said that the sill
yer men would not accept HILL although
personally they liked him very well. He
says that Senator Hill is one of the ablest
men the gold men could name and the
silver men are afraid that he would ma
nipulate the convention TO their disad-
vantage. 1t is known that Mr.. Hill
will accept the offer of the national com
mittee and allow the convention to vote
him down if they do not want him.
Ben. T. Cable, member of the com
mittee from Illinois, has raised the point
that the convention has no right to de-
eide who shall he temporary chairman.
He says that the refusal of the silver
men to accept the man put forward by
the committee will be revolutionary and
contrary to all precedent. Mr.. Cable is
in favor of the committee naming tenn,
porary chairman of its choice and the
convention can do as it pleases about &C
cepting him.

HOW TO CURE HAMS.

+. NJ. Todd, of Virginia, whose cured
hams have given his product n reputa-
ton that sells them wherever offered
gives the following description of his
method of curing:
l. The hams are placed in tray of fine
Liverpool salt, then the flesh surface is
sprinkled with finely ground, crude salt
peter, until the hams are as white as
though covered by moderate frost-or
say use three or for pounds of the powder
ed saltpeter to the thousand ponds of
green hams
2. After applying the saltpeter. i'm
medatcly salt with the Liverpool fine
salt, covering we'll the entire surface.
Now pack the hams in bulk, but not
in piles more than three feet high In
ordinary weather the hams should remain
thus for three days.
8. Then break bulk and re-salt with
fine salt. The hams thus sailed and re-
salted should now remain in salt in bulk
one day for each and every pound each
ham weighs-that is. ten pound ham
should remain ten days, and in such pro-
portion OF time for larger and smaller
sizes.
i. Next YOU wash with tepid water
until the hams are thoroughly cleaned
and after partially drying rub the entire
surface with finely ground black pepper
>. Now the hams should he hung in
the smokehouse, and this important
operation begun. The smoking should
be very gradually and slowly done. last
ing thirty to forty days
u. After the hams are cured and smok-
ed they should be re-peppered to guard
against yermin, and then baggcd. These
hams are improved with age and the
Todd hams are in perfection when one

THE DoINos AT CANTON

CHICAGO, Illinois, October 22.-
Dollar wheat was further off, by sew
eral degrees, this morning, than it was
yesterday. The rapidity with which
the prices glided downward at the
opening of the market, to-day, was
quite as great as that attending any
stage OF It's advance. December opened
from 7414 to 1871 and quickly declined
to 72K. Liverpool and continental
cables were lower, they being the in
fiuential factor In this market. Tight
money, caused by the Bank of Eng
lands carer, was likewise a considera-
tion, trade fearing the difficulty in car
rying wteat under the ruling monetary
conditions. At the expiration of the
first half hour, it rallied to 1873, net
loss Of q cents from yesterdays close.
CHICAGO, Illinois, October 22.--
After the rally which followed the
opening decline, prices steadied around
the "put price, The last half hou :
was one of panicky selling. The San
Francisco market was in a condition
of collapse and no further incentive
was needed to urge the holders in this
market to the sensibility of the dan
ger. From 73A to 7lH the pace
was of lightning speed, ard
after slight recovery the excitement
was resumed and millions OF bushels
were placed on the market ct anything
the purchasers would pay. In less
than three minutes, December was at
70L and weak beyond conception.
The close brought relief to the panic
stricken operators but was nothing to
convey hope of better things to-mor-
row. December closed at 701s, loss
of ~ for the day.
