The previous twenty-four hours had but
little rain. There was a big business done

The crop reports from the territory which
has absorbed attention recently were not
materially changed from their gloomy
tenor. A reaction was started by the
Weather Bureau prediction of rains i'm

there. Longs sold heavily. the Northwest

UNION STOCKYARDS, INDIANAPO-
LIS. June 1f-Less than one hundted head
of horses were offered in the joint auction
sale to-day. against 125 the same time last
week. The attendance of buyers was very
small, and with very little competition the
market opened quiet. The bidding was
sluggish from the start, and. statesmen be-
lieving that they would not be justified in
offering their c~onsignments under such con-
ditions. the business was terminated wher.
about half the supply had changed hands.
Sales were not especially different from
those current heretofore this week, but it
was almost certain hat the entire supply
could not have been sold at opening prices.

painful exhibition and in politics 1t is
an aggravation. The Intelligeucer be-
lieyes that 1t would have been much
better for the Braxton county dissen-

gives 1t publication as relating the side
of the dlssentlents from the regular
convention, but 1t regrets to say that 1t
cannot endorse its proceedings in toto.
and therefore claims the same right to
free expression of its opinion that 1t
has accorded to them.
