STOCK AND PRODUCE MARKETS.
Bears in the Ascendency in the Deal.
fpQs on Wall Street.


fnRs on Wall Street.
New York, Sept. THE bear party was
better defined and more aggressive in
todays market than It has been for sew
eral weeks. and they got the ascendant
for time over the large bull contingent
The desire Of some Of the very heavy
operators in the bull party to realize
profits was itself a source of weakness
But the bears made most capital out of
the yellow fever outbreak in Mississippi
The stocks Of roads which traverse the
region Immediately infected, notably
Louisville and Nashville, were most keen
ly affected. Louisville and Nashville de-
clined at one time two points below Sat
urday's close and other southern roads
were more or less affected, the whole
market going off In sympathy and with
the weight Of heavy realizing sales. These
incidents somewhat interfered with the
plan Of operations of the bulls, which
was not essentially different from that
pursued each day last week. Closing bids:

Time to Come Together,

The time is passing rapidly away and
yet the two Republican factions In our
State have thus far failed to come together
The Union Republicans insist on the ap.
portionment of the delegates as promul.
gated OF the Convention held In Dover.
The Regulars are determined to make
only such concession as will benefit their
side to some extent. They say the only
ovsrtures that have thus far been made to
them been all given and nothing given
them In return. They are willing to give
and take, but not to conCede every thing, as
they consider they arc as much In the right
IS the Union Republicans. Mr.. Hugh G.
Browne, chairman Of the Regular Repub.
licans has not yet made up his list, or If
he has, he has not made it public He
said some time ago that he intended to
take his time and appoint only representa-.
tive men whom he thought might be able
to adjust and fix up tho differences in tho
party and carry everything before them at
the next election. A divided party will
never be succe ssful.
r THE farmers for the first time for some
three years, are beginning to have their
innings and produce is slowly but surely
on the rise. White potatoes, from the
present outlook, will bring 81 bushcl be.
fore the year is out. Tomatoes are fast
going up in price, bringing as high as SO
ton against 50 and Sc a ton, one year ago.
Wheat has sold as high as 81 03 u bushcl
while corn and oats have advanced several
cents bltshcl. Wages should advance
and then the laboring men will be benefit
cd, but no: until wages advance will the
good times como to everybody.
ONE hundred and one persons have thus
far this year made away with themselves
In Philadelphia. or this number 20 wore
women and the balance men. Their
favorito methods were by shooting inhal.
ing gas and hanging. A great many por-
SONS, by rcvcrses in life, become dospond.
cnt and take their lives. They don't Seen
20 recognize the fact that there is a hore-
after where they will have to answer for
their crime, for crime it surely is.
THE Street and Sewer Department. has
been made aware OF the fact that the city
Of Wilmington docs not own the bed VI
Sixth street, over which the Brandy,yino
Springs Road wishes to lay their tracks
In the city. Tho road should be commenced
ut once and thus show their good faith in
building the line and then it will DO time
enough to lay their tracks in the city.
From what can be learned, there is no
doubt but that the Springs Road will DO
built and work on 1t commenced at once.
