Produce.


Chicago Sept. 1.-Wheat suffered from
lack of interest and closed &c lower for
December but unchanged for September.
The most prominent feature of the days
session in wheat was the extreme dullness
of trading and to this more than any
thing contained in the news was the
slight decline which closed the leading
speculative option. The market was a
shade lower at the start in both Septem-
Der and December, the result of lower
quotations from Liverpool. There was,
however, little selling of consequence.
December opened a shade lower at 6S1an
6s5sc. The market held at about those
prices for some time, but with little trad
ing either way. A short period of COM
parative strength followed, the market
reversing the usual order of things, fol-
lowing the lead of coarse grains, which
showed considerable strength. Septem-
Der advanced to 7O14c, declined to 69Iac
and closed unchanged at 693sc. December
declined to T01ac and closed &c lower at
71R@T19sc.
Corn was firm and slightly higher all
day. December and September each
closed hc higher
Oats We're higher all around in sym
pathy with corn. December closed BnAc
higher and September Am$sc up.
Provisions were decidedly active and
weak. Official confirmation of the re-
ported breaking out of yellow fever at
Key est caused liquidation from all
quarters. AT the close October pork was
22lec lower and ribs 10d1212c lower.

Wedding Souvenirs,

1t is not altogether piety that has
prompted the prevailing custom of be-
slowing upon brides, maids of honor
and bridesmaids at fashionable we'd
dings Hastily bound copies of the Book
of Common Prayer" The idea is a
pretty one, whatever the motive that
prompts their giving. Exactly alike,
they are covered in specially designed
artistic bindings, with initials of each
recipient in solid gold letters, together
with date on the side or upper left
hand corner. Upon leaf of gold
bordered vellum inserted in each book
are the names of clergymen, contract
ing parties, attendants, parents on both
sides and sometimes others near of kin.
This departure from jewelry (Which has
so long been the nuptial bestowal upon
the bridal party, is one of tender SEN
timent and dignity, the religious char
acter of the gift making it particularly
appropriate as a memento of the most
solemn event in woman's life. Prayer
books have long been given as We'd
ding presents, usually by the clergy
man who officiates, and frequently car
ried by the bride to the altar, but not
until recent weddings have they served
as souvenirs presented by the bride. or
jointly by the bride and groom, inClud-
ing themselves in the gift list.

were seen, although on Friday the Van
derbilt properties showed strength and ac-
tivity, based upon the annual report OF
the New York Central road.
The fact that the crops are safe and
that railroad earnings continue to in
crease tends to support prices and to d.
minish the influence of the prevalent feel
ing that prices for many of the dividend
paying securities have fully discounted
present prospects.
One of the noticeable features of the
week has been the strength of the steel
and iron group of securities, some rep
resentatves of that class creeping up
without apparent effort or any considera-

seems to involve the probability of a con-
fiict with the rival Philadelphia commit

curities OF the company in question have
little interest for Wall street. A much
more important incident, though 1t was
hardly reflected by the market. was the

Financial Review.

New York, Sept. 1.-Bradstreets Finan-
cial Review tomorrow will say 1t has
been a rather dull speculative week. the
market being almost entirely in the hands
of professional interests. In its earlier
days the tone was heavy and moderate
and concessions were recorded owing to
the unfavorable aspect of the Transvaal
dispute. London's nervousness on that
score was reflected in the New York mar
ket, although this feeling took the form
of an indisposition to start any large
movement rather than of active bearish-
ness in the market at large. In the last
few days the hardneing of money incident
to the September disbursement was a fac
tor and would account in a measure fof
the relatively small amount of trading
and the disposition of certain stocks
which have lately been the objects of bull.

London, after its recovery from the fear
