QUAY WILL BE SEATED.
His Friends Assert That the Votes
Are Already Pledged.

PITTSBURG, Pa, April Ex-senator
Quay's friends In Pittsburg and Allegheny
are wearing broad smile. They claim to
have information that the senator has
completed a poll of the United States
senate, and secured absolute pledges of
siXty-seven votes in favor of seating him
on the commission issued by Gov Stone
There will be only eighty-six senators
in the upper branch of the Fffty-sixth
congress. owing to the deadlocks In Della
ware, California, Pennsylvania and Utah,
so that forty-four votes will be sufficient
to insure seating Quay, If he has them
Quays lieutenants claim that he will not
of them believe there will be no concert
ed opposition, owing to the fact that the
three national chairmen-Hanna. Jones
and Butler-are in favor of seating him.
X is also claimed that after the Quay
managers decided to maintain the dead
lock to the end of the legislature a pre-
liminary poll of the United States senate
was made, which, at the time, insured the
favorable termination of a contest for
the seat. and that the Mckinley admin
istration fell into line with the under
standing that the Pennsylvania delga-
ton to the next national convention
should support the president for a re-
nomination.
The Democratic affection for Quay, 1t
Is said, dates from the time that he engi-
neered the retirement of the force bill,
the Mckinley tariff bill having been held
up in the senate by the Southern Demo-
Gratis, who were loudly indignant at the
attempt to pass the force bill.

WEEKLY MARKET LETTER.

CATTLE-The range Of prices on fat
cattle has not been great enough to
change our quotations
There have been one or two instances
where prices were somewhat lower than
last week but there has not been as much
OF decline here as at Chicago and other
markets, considering the quality Of cattle
here this week.
The bulk of fat cattle are selling at
$430Q4.66 This class Of cattle would not
bring to exceed over 10 cents more in Chi
cago.
Our buyers are willing to pay more for
a better class Of cattle than are coming
here at present.
The stocker market has been strong to
a shade higher all week on all kinds. The
run has been light and as there are plen-
ty Of buyers here we have been able to
get very good prices. We do not think
there will be any great change in prices
for the coming week.
HOGS-Receipts 80 far this week foot
up close to 1000, as against 2,663 for the
same time last week, and $3.50 for the
same time a year ago. The quality has
not been quite so good as last week, the
receipts containing more rough, old sows
and stags Prices as a rule have been
very satisfactory to shippers.
Today (Thursday) there were 1000 here,
the bulk selling at $3.721s@3.75, with some
choice loads and sorted punches as high as
$3.771zQSS0. The demand for good 200 to
220 lb butcher weights is very good, and
we believe that in some cases this class
of stuff was sold as high as it would in
Chicago.
Shippers should be very careful about
overlooking now that the warm weather
has come. We have had quite number
of dead hogs this week, and we believe
that shippers would profit greatly by
bedding their cars with sand and then,
before loading, wet the sand down.
We do not look for much of any change
next week, but believe that If there is a
change, the prices will be lower, owing
to the fact that the provision market is
weak and dull.
SI1EEP-The market on sheep has been
strong this week and the receipts have
been fairly good. Buyers here are pay
ing prices that compare very favorably
with Chicago, and we feel confident that
shippers would not be disappointed after
giving this market trial.
We think that the sheep market will
continue steady to strong and do not look
for any great change.
Yours truly,

NEW YORK, April N-Stocks opened
higher this morning, and after moderate
fluctuations either way slid off below
yesterdays prices. There was advices of
crop damage, sterling exchange was
strong at higher figures and call money
was at the legal rate of per cent In the
afternoon, all Of which combined to send
prices off with rush, and the market
closed weak under pressure.
The demand for money was incidental
to the preparations Of corporations TO
meet May disbursements, and then there
was disposition among traders to an
tfcipate squeeze in call money tomor-
row, when loans carry over to Monday.
There was moderate arbitrage buying
for London account early, and the traders
also were prominent buyers, but the d.
minishtng commission house business
prompted them to switch their position
and sell for a turn.
The trading in 100000 shares was prac-
tically all for professional operators Sill
yer certificates, representing 100000
ounces changed hands at from 63Ac to
64Ac, the latter being the highest figure
in over two years.
The bull speculation in silver as well
as the dividend gossip impaired strength

conda Mining had over 3 points knocked
off from It's recent advance on liQuida-

and a large part Of the orders for cattle
have remainded untitled.
The market has been steady to strong
on all classes of cattle except butcher
steers. which, following the decline In
Chicago of from 20 to 80 cents, have de-
declined here from 15 to 20 cents on the
rough and unfinished stuff The demand
for good, fat cows and heifers continues
in excess of the supply and they are sell
ing at somewhat stronger prices than last
week, and this may also be said of good
quality little cattle, especially light heif-
ers.
With the exceptions noted we have no
other changes to make in our last weeks
cattle quotations.
HOGS-The receipts have been twice as
large this week as last, and following
like decline in Chicago and elsewhere, our

INDIAN IN LUCK.

MARINETTE, Wis, April N.-MitcheIl
Peters, a Shawana Indian, is a living
witness of a drunken mans luck. Peters
was one of a driving crew that broke
a big jam above Sturgeon Falls. He made
the desperate attempt of trying to crosse
the river on a log, and was carried over
the falls. The falls are forty feet high
and consist of two pitches and a rapide
Peters was given up for dead, and the
driving crew thought 1t useless to search
the river for his body, as the logs were
piling over the falls at fast rate.
Imagine the surprise of all when Peters
walked into camp the next morning for
breakfast Some thought 1t was his ghost
until he was in their midst He had been
swept down the river by the rushing
water and up against the river bank, anS
he managed to crawl out and went to
sleep. A few scratches on his head were
the only injuries sustained.
The Sturgeon falls is one of the most
II eacherous places In the Menominee
river region, and few years ago three
girls were swept over In boat and
drowned
