Ever since the Dold works were started
there has been a heavy demand for theA-
high grade hygienic crystal Zee and this
demand has been both city and outside
towns. There is now going on about the
ice department a complete overhauling,
with new machinery and complete april
aEces, apparatus, and up-to-date, scien-
tifc compliances. Some Of this change
Is already in effect, but the process Is
necessarily slow so as not TO disarrange
the works as the demand is constant and
never ceaslng, both for their own private
use in their refrigerator cars and also
from the trade. Yesterday there were
over g tons pulled from the ice tanks.

working of the department although the
transfer Of the old to the new is going on
all the time. When completely reftted

MARKET WIS VARYING

Light Supply, Quality Fair
Very Few Cattle.

There was a weakness ali along the hne
yesterday in the livestock markets and all
of them reported decline in prices and
sagg1ng draggy market. This was not
alone true of the live hog industry but
provisions also took q toboggan slide
downwards and the whole list, including
the several grains, felt the influence OF
the tumble and uncertain conditions, and
all went down and hogs as a matter or
fact suffered the least of any of the list.
Live hogs have all the time letely more
than held their own with provisions and
when the latter have gone down the for
sner have not at all times gone with them.
the grains and provisions on the con-
trary have sagged at losing rate among
she dealers and at the same time hogs
have remained steady or else have held
strong or more than held their own.
Yesterday was no exception. There was
G yellow fever scare which influenced IN
ravorably the general markets and this
dad its effect all along the line. The first
reports came from Newport News, Va,
and this caused an almost sensational
break and the whole list at once caught
the tone and the unfavoraole influence
and went OF especially in provisions, al
ways the fret product TO suffer. Trad
Sng in the hog commodities yesterday was
On consequence much more active than in
the grain pit The weakness was espec-
daily apparent In pork where liquidation
was heavy and persistent The grain
Gnarkets also In a degree felt the effects
of the yellow fever talk The hog mar
kets yesterday N some instances opened
steady TO strong but closed at a marked
decline. The Wichita market opened at a
quotation of steady to strong and closed
lower. It was light day in point Of re-
cetpts anyhow, so no one suffered any.
The buying element was eager and there
WAS a good demand for killing hogs be-
fore the eastern slump was reported.
Even then the hogs would have been
bought had they appeared, and at COM
psratively good prices. But as there
were so few in, the market simply acted
jn sympathy with other markets. There
was hardly enough in to establish grade
or quality mark, but the small line Of
fered may be said to have been very fair.
IT was a day Of lower prices all around
and caused entirely by a bear effort with
yellow fever as the bugabOo, and from no
lack Of demand or swelling of receipts.

New York July S1-There were num-
Der Of depressing influences brought to
bear on the stock market today and prize
es opened lower but later there was raj
ly. and the close was strong. Most con-
spicuous Of the depressing influences was
the reported outbreak OF yellow fever at
the Hampton, Va, soldiers home. The
groupe OF railroads liable to suffer from
yellow fever epidemic and the resulting
guarantees having been favorites In the
recent speculation. especially on the part
of London, a setback to them therefore
was calculated to have a far-reaching In
huence in the general list Louisville and
Nashville did in fact open down Ia and
the Northwestern stocks, Southern rail-

ciatei banks In the SATURDAYS statement
also had some unfavorable influences In
the early dealings. A decrease Of nearly

There was an abundance Of commercial
