BALKAN SITUATION.

Sofia, Bulgaria, Oct 1.-The i'm
provement in the Balkan situation
seems to be reflected by the Sofia
press. which no longer discusses the
Macedonian situation. Prince Ferdi-
nand returned here yesterday from hts
country seat.
Letters from Monastir say that the
Turkish authorities are posting final
invitation to the insurgents to return
to their homes.
A report issued by the revolutionary
committee at Monastir gives details OF
a long list of atrocities committed by
the Turkish troops who were hurled
from high rocks. II is stated that the
Turks killed over 200 peasants in a
number of villages, and that while TAX
ing $50 villagers as prisoners to Ne
vesko they massacred rs Of them At
another place IS women were outraged
and then shut in barn, which was set
on fire.
A special from Ria monastery says
that troops recently attacked neigh
boring village, and that the men fed
to the forests and that the soldiers
beat and tortured the women and chill
dren.
report from Philippopolis says the
war department is again buying horses
and that battalion OF troops with IS
field guns has gone to the frontier.
Another dispatch from the Ria mon
astery gives a report that the whole
population of the district of Razlog
has been massacred or has fed. Three
thousand women and children, fugi-
tives from the Turkish soldiery. have
arrived at Ria. Many villages around
Razlog are said to be burning. The
town itself is surrounded with tents
occupied by the Turkish troops, who
avoid fighting and, according to the
dispatch, attack only innocent people.
Richard oIney Is Named.
Boston, Oct. 3.-In most harmon
ious state convention and with an en-
thusiasm greater than has been dis.
played In gathering of the party In
Massachusetts In many years. the
democrats of this city nominated
their leaders for the campaign Of
1903.
The sentiment of the convention,
sounded both In the address of the
permanent chairman and in the plat
form adopted. seemed TO be a general
condemnation Of the policy Of the OPP
posite party, both with reference to
national and state administrations.
Colonel w. A. CASTOR was nominated
for governor and Richard Olney for
lieutenant governor.
Hundreds Of Cattle vaccInated.
Beatrice, Neb.,. Oct 2.-Within the
past few days DR.. Gilbert Robertson. a

vaccinated 500 head of cattle on the
Fitzpatrick ranch as a preventive

which prevails among cattle in this

Big DECLINE in WHEAT
SEPTEMBER CLOSED IN CHICAGO
PIT At LOSS OF 3-sc for the Day.
Corn and Oats Also Went Lower. i'm
sympathy with Wheat-Provisions
Moved Up a Notch.

CHICAGO, Aug. iS.-There was another
big decline in wheat to-day due to renewed
liquidation, and closing prices were near the
bottom, September being off 19sc. Septem-
ber corn closed &c lower. Oats were down
lsc. while provisions were from sc to nc
higher to 10c lower.
The wheat pit showed a fair decrease of
strength at the start, due TO the steady ca
bles, the foreign markets being up on
ports of wet weather in England. There
was fair commission house buying early in
the day, and, after opening isdAc to h@ssc
higher at S2as@S2kc. September advanced to

ton, however, and with a big break in
prices in the Northwest the market here
gradually yielded, and prices started down.

BILE selling for short account, and many stop

the weakness. The break i'm corn helped
along the decline, did the large increase
in the worlds visible, 100000 bu, as shown
| by Bradstreets, and extreme weakness pre-
vailed the latter part of the session. After
selling down to s0a4c September closed at

contract grade-made total receipts for the
three points of 376 cars, against 173 cars
last week and 572 cars a year ago.
Corn was rather dull and ruled weak
throughout the greater part Of the session.
Fine maturing weather was the principal

the selling of September against liberal
country purchases, which caused a decline
of over 1ac in that option. The weakness

months, but May received fair support from
commission houses, which helped 10 steady
