but little support was given the market
except from shorts, who early in the day
bought in considerable quantities. The
Northwest was even weaker than the
local market and this soon became a
coming from that section, which induced
liquidation by local longs and also
brought selling orders through commits
sion houses. The result was a steady de-
cline, the market getting under puts,
and even then receiving no substantial
support. The cash market was badly out
of line. Later it was reported
that several loads had been worked. but
the effect of this was offset by advices
from the Northwest that much heavier
receipts were expected next week. This
was discounted by shorts, who sold
heavily in the last hour of the short Sat-
urday session, and the bottom apparently
dropped out of the market September
opened hM3sc lower at Use, declined to
70lac and reacted to 70h0705sc where it
closed. December opened 1sGAc lower at
73ssI731ac, declined to 72ssc and closed at
72zc.
corn was decidedly weak for Septem-
Der and easy for other futures. Septem-
Der closed 3sd12c lower.
Oats, considering the weakness of other
grain markets, were steady. September
closed sGAc lower.
Provisions were dull and weak, inf1u-
enced little by the decline in the grain
markets. The cash demand was good.
At the close September pork was &c low

Admiral Watson Ill.

Washington. Aug. 26--The Army and
Navy Register says: Recent letters from
Manila mention the illness of Admiral
Watson as the source of great anxiety
to his officers. The illness is the effect of
an accident which occurred to his launch
while he was on board on the 18th of
July.
The Baltimore, his flagship, has been
for some time at Cavite, leaving Manila
so as to escape the full force of the ty
phoons. Desiring to make a trip up the
river. the admiral started in his launch.
A strong wind was blowing, and as the
launch the Undine, went under the
bridge over the river. known as the
Bridge of Spain. the strong current, aided
by the wind, set against the little boat,
and 1t was taken out of its course and
thrown against a hawser from a sailing
vessel. The rope carried away the avn
ing and struck the sm0kestack. Admiral
Watson, sitting in the forward part of the
launch, witnessing the full danger of the
accident. showed no conscious appearance
of having been startled excessively by the
occurrence or in any way of having suf-
fered by it. Later, however in fact be-
fore his return to the flagship. serious
heart trouble developed, and in conse-
quence he was regarded as extremely i'll
up to the date of the letters of the 18th.
No one but his physician is allowed ac-
cess to him and all business of the fleet
Is forbidden,
