The Boston Wool Market.

Boston, Sept. 24.-'More wool sold
last week. but the market was far
from generally active, the bulk Of the
business being confined to few
houses. 1t is said that prices have
not been shaded and holders talk quite
confidently, but the continued absence
from the market of some of the largest
buyers causes an uncertain feeling in
some quarters. Quotations, however,
are unchanged The London auction
sales open Tuesday with small Of
ferings, but owing to the poor quality
of much of the supply 1T is expected
that they will have little effect upon
the American situation. Recent sales
at Sidney. n. S. w. show a basis of 81
cents, secured landed cost in Boston,
for COS to 64s, indicating that primary
markets are firm. The receipts of the
week are 7,sS6,324 pounds, and the
shipments 4,3SS,210 pounds.

TELLS BY
THEIR SLEEP

81 can tell by my little
ones sleep when a cold is
coming on" said a mother
when speaking of the advance
symptoms of colds in children.
I" They toss about, are rest
less, their breathing is heavy
and there are symptoms of
night sweats. The next morn
ing | start with SCOTS Emul-
sion. The chances are that
in a day or two they are all
over it. Their rest is again
peaceful and the breathing
normal"
Here's a suggestion for
all mothers. SCOTS Emul-
sion always has been almost
magical in its action when
used as the ounce of proven
ton. Nothing seems to over
come child weakness quite so
effectively and quickly as
SCOTS Emulsion.

There Was Slight Decline in
Prices For Common to Med-lD
ium Sorts
HIGHER PRICES FOR HOGS
The Demand for All Grades Was Fair
Iy Good and the Market Was Strong
Demand for Sheep Was Not Very
Active and Prices Looked About Ten
Lower.

Chicago, Sept. 24.-Cattle-Not until
late hour was it possible for the
trade to secure a line On the condi-
tionAof the cattle trade. Prices We're
irregular and the demand tame. But
the general opinion of trade was that
the best class of native steers would
sell steady while prices for common
to medium sorts would show a slight
decline. Included in the receipts were
ton thousand range cattle, and the lat
ter were very slow sale.
There is nothing very encouraging
in the outlook just now and traders
have been urging moderate country
shipping operations. Plain and me-
dunn natives are meeting strong COM
petition from western range cattle, and
the fact that these have closed consid-
erably lower will likely put the slaugh-
terers in baarish mood toward the
palmer native kinds next week should
such be III very liberal supply.
Hogs.
The market was strong and gener-
ally prices were SOLO higher. The
demand for all grades was fairly good,
packers lending support to the trade.
Shipping hogs were also we'll In de-
mand
Last weeks receipts of hogs were
SO, 800 being $4,000 less than the week
before ami $4,000 less than a year ago.
Shipments were 20.400, being 5000 less
than the week before, but 5000 more
than a year ago. The quality was rath-
er indifferent, altho there was fairly
good proportion Of prime heavy hogs
that showed more weight than buyers
cared to have.
One or two statesmen. who had prime
heavy hogs they thought they ought
to get s6.45 for, found it hard work to
get buyers who would bid. There was
a demand for good weight stock all the
week, but the big weights, except those
that have lately been selling so very
low, were neglected.
Sheep.
The early estimate of the run was
10000. but later it was raised to $4,000
and many sellers expressed belief that
the actual enumeration would show
nearer $4,000. The demand was not
very active, especially on killing kinds
of sheep and lambs. From the bids
at the start it looked as tho sheep
would sell 10 lower, while lower grades
of lambs were off 10@15.
Features of the market have been a
big run of lambs and scarcity of feed
ing sheep. Feeder buyers backed up on
lambs somewhat for several reasons,
one being an impression that they are
too high, another dry weather in the
east There is a disposition to hold
back when the feeder market Says, but
to buy freely when stuff is scarce and
the price high
Feeder trade has been on a broader
scale, but on lambs concessions had to
be made. Lambs are Csc lower than
the recent high spot. Quality shows
considerable deterioration and a lot
of light lambs are coming.

TROOP C, 18th U. S. CAVALRY,
BASE BALL.

Woodstock closed the season this
week by easily defeating a Bellows
Falls-Springfeld team 9 to 4, and
disbands after a very successful Sc
ries of games under Manager E. b.
Howes.
The first game with the Bellows
Falls-Springfeld team was played
Saturday, the visitors starting off
with a rush and getting in two runs
in the firth inning. The locals led
all the running in, that game, batting
the b. T. and S. pitcher all over the
lot, but there was enough action to
make the game interesting.
The second game Labor day was a
similar performance, Wyatt'speeding
up again and keeping the hits down
to very low figure. Ross made a
spectacular throw and Fitzmorris
and Connolly likewise made snowy
and effective plays.
