PRESS DENOUNCES THE VERDICT.
French Flag Burned at indianapolis by
WeIl-known Citizen.


WeIl-known Citizen.
Chicago, Sept. 1.-THE papers all
over the United States are a unit in
condemning the Dreyfus verdict, which
is considered, generally by the edi-
tOrial writer's. as bad for France,
significant Of decadence in fact. In
this city the boycott has begun to
work. Anemployer named L. 3. Wright
discharged six French painters because
they insisted on giving expression to
their belief that Dreyfus was guilty,
and would not be quiet, while all the
other men were Dreyfusards; thus dis
putes in the shop were never-ending.
Indianapolis, Sept. II. - When the
news Of Dreyfus' fate reached Indian
apOlis Saturday Captain Wallace Eos
ter, who originated the plan of floating
the American flag over Indiana school
houses, announced that he would have
the flag Of France burned in the public
streets. At o'clock in the evening a
large crowd was drawn to his home in
North Capitol avenue, and encircled by
women, children, bicycles, and buggies
the tri-color was brought out and
burned on the macadam boulevard.
There was loud cheering as the flag,
which Captain Foster had obtained at
the Worlds fair, was reduced to ashes.
A Frenchman participated in the cere-
mony.

club, as club which is a lover Of JUS
tice and fair play, urges you, as a just
rebuke to military despotism which
has convicted Captain Dreyfus, an in
nocent man, to use your influence with
President Mckinley to get him to with
draw the American commissioner to
the Paris exposition"
London. Sept. 11.-With the eXcep-
ton Of the Jesuit organs in Rome and
the anti-Semite papers the press Of the
| whole world is ringing with eXecra-
ton. Even the Russian press joins in
| the chorus, although perhaps the Jews
are nowhere more hated than in Rus
STA. The judges are everywhere des-
scribed as criminals, and gloomy specu
latiOnS are iBdulged as to what future
is in store for France.
The German press is especially in
dignant, the National Zeitung remark
ing that ''even the worst enemy of
France could not have wished what
has happened" Papers of all nation
alities fall in with the idea of boy

CATTLE-Our market has been a fairly
satisfactory one this week. Receipts have
been very heavy, and there has been the
usual run of common and scrub stock
stuff Statesmen, however, have adopted
heroic measures to cure the evil of ship
ping in this common stuff, and have been
selling it out for whatever is offered, and
the result is that the yards are fairly
we'll cleared. Where shippers have
bought their common stuff right they
have made little money, but in a ma
jority Of cases they have paid too much
In the country, and have had to stand
Losses. This common stuff will only sell
at very low prices and it is absolutely
necessary that 1t be bought with that
idea in view. Good stock cattle Of all
kinds have found a ready sale all week,
as buyers for the best have been plenti-
full. Heavy feeders have been scarce,
but those in that were of good quality
have sold strong. Stock heifers were
little stronger today, the best selling at
So to $40, but during the week there have
been few sales above So. Light bulls have
been selling low, except where the quality
was choice. The bulk of the calves are

NEW YORK, Nov. 23.-The stock mar
ket as a whole continued dull and neg
lected, while professional operators work
ed their Will with a few stocks, marking
them up or offering them down success
sively. A singular feature of the narrow
market was the number of extremely
low-prtced stocks, usually designated as
"cats and dogs" which were taken up
and moved widely. A number of these
were traded in at quotations under $40
per share, and still others at about $40 or
less. Some Of these stocks do not ap-
pear in the record for months, and usual
ly only on the elimination of furious
bull speculation, which picks them for
an advance after every other available
stock has been exhausted. Some of the
individual stocks which rose yesterday
reacted today, while other stocks domi-
mated by identical or closely affiliated in
terests were moved to higher level to
correspond.
There were some points of weakness,
notably in the anthracite group, on ac-
count Of the discussion of q new line to
be worked Independently, but the under
tone was firm, in expectation of a good
weekly bank statement. The strength of
individual stocks had a natural tendency
to keep the general list hard.
The money market did not reflect any
increased lending powers by the banks.
The demands for United States 4 per
cents Of 1881 is an indication of the trans
ference Of savings bank investment from
the short term bonds which the govern
ment IS redeeming. The redemption
money so applied of course offers no re-
lief to the money market. Some trans
fers are also being made from govern
ments into New York city bonds, an issue
of which has been made this week.
These funds, as soon as they become
available to the city, will find their way
into the money market through deposit
tory banks. The bid price of both the
old As and 5s on the stock exchange has
been raised to above the treasury re-
demption offer.
The stiffness of the local money rate
was sufficient to cause further decline
in sterling exchange, in spite of the hard
ening Of discounts in London, where
there is a general expectation Of higher
money. Individual movements of i'm
portance today were advances in c., I. &
