HOG MARKET STEADY
Light Saturday Run and Very
Little Business Done.
TOPS STICK TO 1895
No Cattle Market as Nothing
offered.

The live stock markets yesterday were
steady at all the main receiving points,
and this market maintained that tone
and quotation and was quoted as steady
also. As a matter of fact, there was
not enough stock received to make a
quotable market, and for that reason no
lists Of sales are made for the day. There
was good demand for butcher hogs and
had there been a supply of them they
would have sold readily, but as there
was so little in, it is Of no consequence
to note the light list of sales, all of
(which, save one car load, were local
neighborhood deals and of no import
ance. It was a light day at all the
western markets, and this one was SYM
pathetic with the rest. There was one
very good load Of hogs received late and
toward the close, and they were heavies
of sound, well-fattened grade, and sold
to Doid at the same steady price which
has ruled for the tops for the past three
days, namely, 1886. They averaged 20
pounds and were consigned by the firm
Of VIM. Astle & Sons, Of Haven. Out
side of this there was little doing in the
hog division. It has been a holiday week
and many Of the most reliable shippers
have been in Wichita with their fami-
lies attending the gala week at the
street fair, and the North side, having
been among the steadfast supporters Of
this enterprise have given all spare at
tention to this as a city's pride and pet
enterprise. The Dold Packing company
gave literally TO the subscription, loaned
their horses for the parades, and main
tanned the most elaborate booth of the
entire display, giving out free lunches
daily TO the throngs attending the fair.
The Union stock yards furnished what
is conceded to be among the most at
tractively uniformed divisions for the
civic parade, a large squad of mounted
members OF the various Exchange inter
ests, and in all they all feel the week
has been a successful one, especially since
their suddenly sprung candidate for queen
of the carnival won out with such a
splendid majority and received the adj
miratiOn Of all visitors. All stock has
been promptly handled and all shippers
pleased and the absence Of the shippers
at home accounts for the light receipts.

SHIPPERS AND NOTES.

The only shipper who reported with
consignment of stock yesterday was the
one above noted. Mr.. VIM. Astle of Ha-
ven, who had In a fine load OF heavy
hogs. about the best received at these
yards In a long time. They received he
market price, and were sold.
There was practically no cattle market,
as there was little in on which to base
a quotable market There was one bull
sold at s2.9O which weighed 1890 pounds.
The DoId shipments yesterday, for Sat-
urday, were strong, there being a heavy
express and jobbing business done, and
a fair line of straight contract cars.
There were, besides, about nine cars of
produce sold during the day for immedi-
ate delivery early this week. The trade
continues to keep strong and every de-
partment is busy all the time getting out
orders. Late in the afternoon a special
double force was placed at work to hang
the smoke houses, and two hours after
dark there were hanging in the several
smoke houses 10000 pounds of bellies,
besides a line of specialties and regular
stock.

MONEY GREATLY EASIER
Despite a Bank Statement
None too Favorable.

New York, Oct 2.-The traders In
stocks were unable to induce any no.
ticeable movement in prices during the
two hours of trading. The bears were
inclined to attack the industrial special
ties when it became evident that the
bulls were not in an aggressive mood.
Sales for spot account were in evidence
in the specialties. some of which dropped
off point or over. Realizing was also
manifest in Pullman and New York Gen.
trail, but the decline in prices brought out
no large offerings of stocks and the bears
had generally covered their contracts be-
fore the bank statement appeared, bring
ing prices back ia about last nights
level. A nominal increase in the surplus
reserves was seized upon by the bulls
to rush up the price Of Sugar in an at
tempt TO induce a following. They were
as unsuccessful as the bears, and real
izing caused a reactionary tendency in
the whole list, which was very narrow
IN its activity. The closing. therefore,
was easy at trivial net changes either
way. The main features of the bank
statement were a repetition of those OF
last week. There is nothing in it TO
encourage an expectation OF easier money
but as last weeks similar statements
led to no renewal of money stringency.
the stock market was inclined to the
view that this weeks showing might
lead to no worse result. II is puzzling TO
account for the greater ease which has
developed in money during the past week
in face Of loan contraction reported By
the banks OF 1885, COO The stock mar
ket borrowers hope that money will
cease to now to interior points during the
coming week. There are intimations Of
some large holdings Of government bonds
by flduciary institutions, the anticipated
interest upon which will be applied for
next week and so be made valuable for
the money market.

Two Republics: O., M. Mason, d tobacco expert and manufacturer of North Carolina, is in town. Speaking of tobacco production, he said to reporter: 'Of all the products of Mexico as far as can judge, the cul- tivation of tobacco presents perhaps the most promising outlook: the tobacco lands Of Cuba are less and less productive, in fact, they are to all practical purposes exhausted. The lands of Mexico, on the other hand, are today as good as virgin soil, for tobacco. The tobacco states are Ve- racruz, Tabasco. Chiapas, Campeche, Yucatan, Colina and Tamaulipas, and in large part of these states there is soil especially adapted to the cultiva tion of the tobacco plant. The aver age yield per acre in most of these states is from 5000 to 1000 pounds. The average cost to produce is es- timated at from 10 to l5 cents per pound and the average market value is from 30 to 50 cents per pound The cultivation and manufacture of tobacco in Mexico is well worthy the attention of capitalists"
