among the owners.-Thers are more
cattle for sale this year than ever before,
he says, but there is also agood demand.
The Pacific coast is needing lots OF
cattle and most Of the southern owners

come down is pure bluff. No contracts
have been let yet and it not likely that
any will be made before March,-Rapid

Isaac Ainslie had his left leg broken
last Monday forenoon while working in
the Crown mica mine. In company
with one or two other miners he was
engaged in removing mica and waste
from an open cut, when, withot. warn
ing, a mass Of rock fell from the side of
the cut and struck him on his back and
side. Besides breaking his leg about
eight inches above the ankle, and re-
ceiving a severe cash over his left eye,
he sustained a number of bad bruises on
various parts Of his body. At last nc
counts he was getting along as well as
could be expected considering the ma
ture of his injuries, although it will be
several weeks before he will again be
able to resume work in The mine.

Boise, Idaho, ON the morning of the
10Th Of kidney trouble. In company
with his wife he had been travelling on
the Pacific coast for several months past,
seeking a climate that would prove
beneficial to his health. They haye
visited all the principal points in that
part Of the United States, but without
experiencing any improvement. Mt.
S~hively had at one time been II resident
of Custer, having come to this section
during the early eighties. He has been
in business in Edgemont ever since the
town was started, and was probably the
most su bstantial merchant in the place.
He leaves a wife and son. The remains
were buried at Hot Springs Wednesday.

DICK BROS. & co.

NEW YORK, September lbs p.
m.-The terrible event at Buffalo yes
terday naturally caused a decidedly
feverish and weak opening. 1t was
generally expected that the leading In
terests would come to the support OF
the market. and in the first half hour
this appeared to be the case, but
thereafter the selling movement became
SO large that the early strength was
lost and decided declines all hrough
the list developed.
This was due to very unfavorable re-
ports about the condition of President
Mckinley and the doubt felt as re-
gardjpg his recovery. Should the
President. contrary to the hopes and
desires o. the nation. not be able TO
survive. a further unsettled state OF The
market is likely to follow. But In such
a case we believe that the leading
financial interests who are working in
harmony, will come to the rescue OF
the market by issuing clearing house
certificates and by the use OF other
methods to prevent demoralIzation.
While the Presidents recovery IS
f~eryently hoped for, should, however.
his wounds become fatal between this
and Monday, we believe that the stock
exchange will close that day out OF re-
snect for the President. =

CHICAGO. September Corn has
suffered with Wall Street and the gen

ers to Iiauidate because of the uncer-
taintv of the result of h President :
condition. There was some support at
the opening by certain holders Dut IL
was not on a large scale n the best
BUYERS early were the sellers later.
Wall Street sold corn, evidently putting
a serious Interpretation on the char
aeter OF Presidents wounds. Gables bc

rally. Receipts 3fS cars. Weather

Oats.-Much the same experience In
oats as in corn, an unsuccessful EFFORT
at support. The market lost a fraction.
There was scattered commission sell
ing. Stocks here will increase large
Iy.e>
Wheat.-Wheat has been weak, partly
the drought, due to
attempted assassination of the
President and partly due to
heavy receipts and very light
demand. Local traders have been
the buyers and northwest the leading
sellers mostly of May option. Worlds
shipments promise lighter Monday ard
amount on passage should show good
decrease. On other hand, prospects are
for heavy increase in the visible sup
ply Monday. The close is rather heavy.
Provisions Opened weak and lower
and afterwards ruled strong, active and
higher on buying by the packers. Out
side trade sold. The Cudahy Packing
Company bought January lard and sold
October. Cash demand is fairly good.
Towards the close prices were a shade
