Yesterday was q day Of irregularities
and unsettled conditions IN the livestock

on the yellow fever infiusnee.
There was generally very light supply
of hogs at the several centees and light
hogs sold the best One point early re-
ported eight hogs strong to sc higher
Others steady" while another gave OUT
market slow except for good grades
while a third reported strong. The local
market was quoted as steady but the ouil
trade and light receipts made haray

sold without dock at ~ cent advance

neaqer in supply and only one bunch Of

Gagged with the light run and the drassy
tone. This condition prevailed universally
and light receipts, just fair, or fair 10
common in grade, made Of all the markets
a quiet day. The midsummer lul1 Is being
felt the past few days for the first time
this season. though except for the yellow
fever depressing influence the prices have
been good most Of the time and the tone
of the livestock markets firm. The grains
yesterday were quiet and steady. wheat
making a substantial advance. aCttle
were steady at most Of the big points,
only Chicago reporting steady to weaker.
All hands were on hand yesterday for
what business might appear and remained
until the usual closing time. 1t was not
a very enthusiastic day, but neither was
81 expected TO be. There was no dockage
all day, the one car load and all local stuff
going straight. In spite Of the heat, there
are almost no deads in the yarded cars
at all, and this is feature well worth the
shippers attention as the nearness Of this
point to the hog producing belt makes the
loss from this source at it's minimum.

EARLY Strength GOES.
From the Stock Market, Due
to the Money Outlook
CLOSE DULL AND HEAVY
Early Strength Arises From
LondOn's Buying.
CLOSE DULL AND HEAVY

New York! Aug. 2-Today's STOCK mar
ket, like that Of yesterday. had q period
of strength In the morning which gave
way before the day was over. The de-
preston was due ito the continued pros
pect Of hard money. The early strength
had its inception In the disposition OF
London to buy American stocks. notWitn-
standing the marking up OF the money
rate there. The demand from LONDON
was especially marked for Atchison pre-
ferred. Louisville and Nashville ana
Northern Pacific. London sold Anaconda
copper. There was q smart up"aru
movement In some Of the specialues'
Early in the day Sugar went up Il
Reports of the extraordinary earnings
in the iron and steel industry gave a nrm
tone to that group Of stocks and Iennes-
see Coal had the additional benent OF
a report that valuable property was
about to be acquired and that claims OF
preferred stockholders were in process OF
adjustment. The stock In consequence
rose 8 a. The trunk lines were favor
ably affected by the going into erect OF
the higher freight rates on grain 70 the
seaboard. The Tobacco stocks, the local
traction shares. General Electric. Cotton
OIL. PEOPLES Gas, and few others gain
ed from individual causes. The general
appearance OF strength thus impaired to
the market prompted some covering by
the shorts who sold yesterday. thus help
ing on the advance. The higher prices
brought out realizing seles and there was
a sharp break in Sugar and Brooklyn
Transit, the latter dropping 1-2 from
the best. Lackawanna suddenly fell away
8 1-2 points on rumors OF projected
strike. The grangers were weak on bad
crop news. The closing was dull and
heavy, generally below last nights clos
ing. The apprehension over the money
outlook was caused by the advance OF
discount rates IN London to point above
the Bank Of England's minting rate. The
fall In consols was evidence that the
Bank OF England was again borrowing
from the market to repel the demand for

New York were made today az 4 per cent
and lenders showed themselves indispos-

Prime commercial paper rates ruled from
to per cent. Outside banks continued
to draw on their depositors in New York
for the purpose of making loans in hhis
market. There has been some out-go OF
! funds from this center TO Montreal on

Eating Away Stone Walls.

At first sight it would seem hardly
possible for bacteria to be concerned
in the breaking down of stone wall,
yet this is the case, according to OBJ
servations made i'll studying the cause
of the decay of cement. The gradual
disintegratiOn of the cement mortar
used in water supply reservoirs is one
of the serious troubles met with by
water engineers and trouble which
so far they have not been able to avoid
with any measure of practical success.
Hitherto this action was supposed to
be the result of the solvent property of
carbOnic acid and other mineral sub
stances commonly present in water
supply. The cement gradually disin-
tegrates and becomes a kind of mud
which slowly detaches itself. But now
it has been found this strange process
is due to the action of none other than
that bacterium known as the nutrify-
ing organism. An examination of the
mud shows it to be teeming with these
organisms.
