THE CATTLE MARKET.
Big Slump In Prices During the Past
Week at Chicago.

In the weekly review Of the cattle
market issued by Rosenbaum Bros.
& Co. on Monday the following infor-
nation is CLEANED:
There has been another bad break
in the market for western steers this
week and prices are 80 cents and 81
per cwt. lower than ten days ago.
The very best heavy weights have
suffered the least decline. and that
class are only about 50 cents per cwt.
lower, but the market on all other
grades is badly demoralized, and the
bulk of the range steers show a de-
cline of fully 81 per cwt.
Cows, however, have not suffered
as severe a decline in prices the past
ten days as steers. still cows and
heifers are 25 and 40 cents per cwt.
lower. The receipts of rangers this
week have been liberal and the de-
mand not urgent, and the market has
ruled extremely dull, and we can
not expect a favorable reaction in the
trade next week unless receipts prove
moderate.
The sales of range cattle made on
the market this week are. of course.
the best guide as to the present condi-
ton of the trade, and among which
will be noted sales of several brands
at less than S. per cwt., which have
previously sold this season at $3.50
and $5.75 per cwt.

 BRIDGE.

Street Car Traffic on Fair Haven and

 Street car traffic on the Fair Haven and Westville line was somewhat dis turbed yesterday by reason of the fact that the contractors were at work re- placing the girders of the bridge on Grand avenue, near State street, over the New York, New Haven and Hart ford tracks. The entire set of girders were renewed and also the heavy oak planking. This necessitated the cars running on a single track from the bridge to Chapel street on State and on Grand avenue as far out as Roots bak- cry Some inconvenience was exper- enced. but the work was rushed through in an unusually short space of time, considering the amount of cd material taken out and the new substituted The work was completed about 10 o'clock last night, so that the regular traffic was resumed early this morning.

THE TEST JEWELRY CASES.

 | The test jewelry case was continued | before Judge Bishop in the city court yesterday afternoon at 2:30 and late in the afternoon postponed until Satur- day morning,
 The most important matter of the afternoon was the motion made by At torney Goodhart, representing the de- fendants, to have the plaintiff, MI. Dexter, fined for contempt of court for publishing alleged slanderous articles kof the judge and other persons inter- ested in the case. MT Goodhart talked most of the afternoon on the motion and MT. Ely, representing the plain tiff, made q short reply. Judge Bishop decided that even though the articles were slanderous he would not impose any fine
 Another matter was the testimony of three men reputed to be experts in the matter of working gold. They have been in the business for over fifty years and are residents of this city. All three testified that the exact compost tion of the ring in question could not be secured without having melted up the whole ring and this was not done as the ring with the exception of small piece was in court In testing the ring only small portion of it was sawed out and few turning taken off the side. This the expert for the state claimed, it is alleged, would be sufficient to prove what was the composition of the remainder of the ring. This expert admitted that he was not a gold worker but simply chemist and never saw bar of gold poured in his life.
