PROVISIONS-The actual situation in
provisions is a strong one. Stocks are be-
ing eaten into and the hogs are not of
sufficient number to keep the stocks of
cured meats replenished, let alone increase
them The January stuff has been freely
sold by some of the packers on the theory
that hogs will go begging this winter
around 4c per pound. This view is not
so general now and some of the more con-
sentative element among professionals are
disposed to get long a little property for
winter delivery in belief that the fall con-
sumption of meats and fats will have
reduced stocks to such low point by win
ter that it will take a heavy run of low
priced hogs to permit packers restoring
stocks to a normal figure and making the
products of their forward sales. A cent
a pound advance in provisions is not un>
likely. ]. f. HARRIS.

WYOMING AFLOAT.
New Monitor Is Successfully

San Francisco, Sept S.-The United

ly launched at high tide this morning
from the ship yard of the Union Iron
works in the presence of thousands of
enthusiastic people lined along the shore

event had been made a, feature Of the

launching was managed without hitch

Iron works.

morning workmen began ramming in
wedges so as to create an incline of one
foot to Is feet. Later on most of the
blocks sustaining the ship were knocked
away, and by 1890 O'Clock everything
was in readiness for the launching.
About the bows Of the vessel plat
form had been built for the guests of
honor, including Governor Richards of
Wyoming, Adjutant General Frank H.
Stizen, Colonel A. p. Hansen and wife,
Major Thomas Wilhelm, Captain 2. CO.

exclaiming II name thee Wyoming as

and the monitor started from the ways
and slid slowly into the sea. When the

spectators sent up a mighty cheer.which
however, was soon drowned in the din

Little more than the hull of the Wv
oming is finished, but work is being
pushed forward.

Bowling and hlauer, which were set for

The cases Of Ed Timon, Geo. Buford
and Buck Campbell, who were arrest
ed several weeks ago. will come up this
afternoon
The case OF James SheasIey. who was
arrested August %. charged with selling
liquor, came up for trial at O'Clock
yesterday afternoon, and was dis
missed Sheasley consented to allow
the stock which was captured in his
place to be destroyed providing the case
against him was dismissed This was
agreed to, as the evidence against him
was not strong and a trial would have
resulted in his being acquitted, in which
case the property would have to be re-
turned.
The cases against Geo. Buford and
James Kiley, who were also arrested
August %, were dismissed as there was
no evidence and no liquor had been cap
tured in their places
The police will continue the work next
week, and another list Of familiar names
will be entered under the charge of sell
ing liquor. The recent raids have had
a good effect. and it is not likely that
