The eldest -wholesale merchants In every line of business are unanimous In the ex pression that In the local market conditions are unexceptlonally koo1 anl the outlook for a biff fall trade daily improving, as a very fair crop of -wheat, oats and hay has been harvested and the outlook for a big crop of corn could not be more promising, so much so that farmers are beglnnln? to dis pose of their last year's crop at the pricea prevail! from day to day. The wholesale grocers are another line of merchants that have no room for complaint. All staple groceries are steady in price and the con sumption Is unusually largo, due to the prosperity the country Is enjoying. Drug gists are having an excellent trade, and with the hardware and Iron merchants there has teen a marked increase In busi ness since Auerust came in. On Commission row a good trade was transacted through the week, but prices on fruits and vegeta bles have been declining. The produce mar kets are very active for poultry and eggs, but butter is a little slow, and begins to accumulate, with shipments Increasing to ether markets. Leather and hides are gradually Improving and better prices are looked for hides In the near future. Trav eling salesmen teil big tAles of tha promis ing corn crop. Indianapolis Grain Market.

Economical About Accessaries Prod ljcal with Luxuries of Their Class. Ainslee's Magazine. About their necessaries the poor are naturally very economical, but ther is many a poor sweatshop worker on the East Side of New York who pays his dollar or two every Saturday ntuht to go with his wife to the Yiddish Theater. The rioor man will ray his 5 cents for his gla?s of beer on Saturday night. So-netlmes his tem perament will Ret away with him and he spends for too many glasses. If the price of meat went up 5 cents it wnuU ! a gieat misfortune to this same man. lie doesn't like to spend a cent too much for anvthinp he has to have, and yet it is a common thing for a foot man to distrib ute pennies anion? his children quite recklessly. That Is a luxury to him. affects his mood and Is spread beneficially over his work. The East td is full of candy shops, to the detriment of the stomachs of tho poor man's children. The poor man who would fisht for an hour with a pushcart peddler over the price of a banana gives his child a cent unwisely in this cae. although no doubt It Is a r"mjramental satisfaction to him. Of course, there Is a side to the expenditure of the poor which is wh.-lly bad. Discouragement breeds a recklessness which ha no e.-onomieal valuf. Apr mol le dduge. eat and drink, for to-morrow ye die, is often the unconscious thought of the ery poor. Hopeless of Improvement. thy take no thought of the morrow, and are sometimes greater spend thrifts than the very rich. Put this Is the poor rrsn's disease, and Is remedied only by better circumstances. They who can afford to live on a big scale pay less for nf-cssari's than the poor. It Is one of the hardest aspects of poverty that It is only the rich. who. In some ways, can afford to be eco nomical. They pay less, very often, than the very poor for the necessaries pf life. This is striklnsly true of coal, for Instance. The dwell ers in tenement houses have no place to store a lame quantity of coal, even If thy had rnouuli money to buy It by the ton. fin they are forced to buy it by the basket, at a much higher rate, thus paying from 40 to 60 ce:its fr a hundriM pounds, while the rich rnnn. buying by the ton. pays only from 20 to 25 cents a hundrM pounds. The rent. too. of the very poor In the tenement houses is. eonMerlnr the ae-.-irnmo..i-tl. ns afforded, much hisher thin the rer.t of the well-to-do. Ar.d the same princli lö applies to oth'r thinirs. The dealings of the jx.or are nec essarily of such a inisrarilv retail rharactir that the rate paid Is commonly enormously high. it kw Aims to iif;hoi:s.

Mixed CbnnRn Ileanlt, "Wheat, Onta nnl Provision Clowlnc Lower, with Corn a Little Up. CHICAGO, Aug:. 9. Calamity overtook the bull3 in the provision rit to-day. The downhill course of all grains during th? week, and especially the precipitous de cline in corn, had taken all the faith from holders in all the speculative pits. As further argument against the bulls corn broke again early in the day. This was too much for the provision crowd and an avalanche of stop-loss selling orders swamped the pit. Pork made the greatest break, Sue, but other products kept company. While a stampede was working havoc in provisions the grain crowds came to the belief that bottom prices had been reached. Covering on a tremendous scale took place. Corn shorts covered by the millions. The bearish conditions of weather and fine crops worked against a rally, but in the end everything on the floor reacted. Sep tember corn closed i'Uc up, wheat a shade lower and oats down. Provisions closed "Wit 13c lower. Provisions were demoralized until late in the session. There was a great selling pressure in the shape of liquidation in September holdings and selling short of January and May. Pork was the product raided and the bottom dropped out of the market. Everybody was offering stuff. At times January pork was offered 20c under the market with no takers. The bottom was reached at a decline of about SOc. I.ard had been the firmest of the prod--ncts and turned strong on support. The hog market, which had been lower on only six thousand head receipts, turned up late with a view to attracting more stock to market next week. Corn, the weakness of which was the primary inttuence in the provision selling, turned firm. After the t-evere break there was a reactive tendency and the day's losses were much less than at one time seemed probable. September pork sold from Jl.55 down to $15.75 and closed weak, 15e off at $1'J.35; January sold Irom $ltS5 to J13.W and closed at $11.50. September lard sold as low as $10.50- and closed ic down at $10.67V2- September ribs dropped from $10.20 to JJ.CO and closed 121 2c off at Jio.ony.. Corn was so weak early that it caused weakness in everything else On the floor. After slumping over Tc in one week, an ad ditional decline in deferred futures of lc frightened the remaining bulls into renewed liquidation. The weather was favorable and crop reports were bearish. Texas was asking for bids for Immediate shipment. Altogether it appeared that soon there would le a big movement from the South west. The decline, however, soon brought prices to a spot which was considered too profitable to the shorts to last long. Cov ering had been going on all morning but now grew lively. The clique that had sold September short around ;c as a hedge against the corner in July, covered enor mously at big profits. The crowd turned bullish but tho recent depression had been so great that It was hard to overcome. September, which slumped to 3c, rallied to 51c, but closed only a trifie firmer, VsfiUc up, at 511fi'öl1,vc. December slumped lc to and closed easy, H'ic off, at 3?Vtä'8. Receipts were still remarkably small at 34 cars. Wheat made new records for low prices for the crop. There was a tempor.-yy firm ness at the opening, on light rains in the spring harvests, but the drop in corn and the subsequent depression in oats brought marked depression. Crop prospects still were excellent and all reports indicated big yields both for winter and spring wheat, ritop loss orders were plenty, short selling was free and there was only scanty cover ing late in the day on more rains pre dicted Northwest. Receipts were very heavy, especially Fouthwest. There was no business in London or Liverpool, but the continent was weak. September opened 1ic up to unchanged at tlS'c to 6Sc, broke to b7lc and closed easy at 67"8'.it)c. December sold down to MC and closed c up at GCf t;7nC. Local receipts were. 22 cars, one of contract grade; Minneapolis and Duluth re ported IIS cars, miking a total for the three points of 3) cars against 450 last week and 415 a year ago. Primary receipts were 1,311,)"0 bu, against 77r.X last year. Seaboard clearances in wheat and llour equaled r3.(H) bu. Corn weakness brought slumps in oats. Trade was fair but the crop reports were too bearish to allow much of a rally when other grains reacted. May ruled relatively strong, but liquidation in the near future caused dips of lc.

UNION STOCKYARDS, INDIANAPOLIS, Aug. 9. Cattle-Receipts, 225; shipments. 150. This week's receipts of cattle have been of fair volume, but show a decrease of over 4' compared with last week, and nearly 2,200 compared with the same week a year ago, and an increase of 1.5 over the corresponding week two years ago. Thus far this year the receipts are about 21,500 larger than the same period last year. In a general way the market this week has been about as salesmen antici pated. There has been a continued scarcity of strictly choice stock of all kinds and fully steady to Arm prices were maintained for that class, but the less desirable grades and good medium cattle have been plenti-. ful and a gradual weaker tendency resulted in a reduction of at least 25c in values com pared with the close of last week. The medium cows and heifers were possibly weaker than most any other kind of cattle, but there was also a very dull market for ordinary stockers and feeding cattle. The demand for the good stockers and feeders at the beginning of the week was hardly up to the expectations, but there was some improvement later In the week and sales were usually on a basis of former prices or rather about equal to those cur rent at the close of last week. The demand from killers has not been liberal and only for the demand for feeding stock the medium class of cattle no doubt would have suffered more than they did. Extreme prices this week were J7.50 for native steers, $5.25 for fed Texas, $.00 for cows and heifers, $4.50 for bulls and $6.75 for calves. It is important to note, however, that com paratively few steers have been good enough to sell above $7.00, not many heifers above $4.75 and a small proportion of the cows sold above $4.50. There has been a continued limited and slow demand for heavy bulls but the lighter grades have fared tolerably well on account of the demand from feeders. There were very few fresh arrivals this morning consequently there was nothing to interest buyers in the market and the trading was slow and quiet at quotably unchanged prices compared with the way equal kinds sold yesterday.

The marketing of hogs this week has been of only fair volume, the total indicating a de crease of over 5,000 compared with last week, 19,000 compared with the same week a year ago and over 4,000 compared with the corresponding week two years ago. Thus far this year there is a decrease of nearly 144,0 compared with the same neriorl Inst year. For the week ending yesterday the leading local packers bought a total of 10, 741. against 12.555 the preceding week and 21.4.2 the same week a year ago. During the same period the shipments were 7 M against 8,225 the preceding week and 13.229 me corresponding week a year ago. With one exception there has been a decline in prices every day this week, and at the close of the week, when prices were the lowest, the feeling was decidedly the weakest. While there were a few dealers earlier in the week that believed the market might react some, the opinions at the close of the week were practically entirely favoring a continued slump In the market. Occasion ally a dealer can be found who predicts short supplies for the next few months, but it seemed to be the general opinion that there are enough hogs to meet the reouire ments at tho high prices prevailing. In fact, to use a common expression, it mav be sam that practically all of the bulls on the hogs situation have been dehorned. The quality generally continues of a hih stand ard and it appears that fancy light hogs are becoming scarce. Since Wednesday the market has declined about 23c for an aver age, and there is about the same difference to note compared with the close of last week. The range In prices has not changed materially and heavy hogs are selling at about the same premium over lights that they were a week apro. The highest price paid this week was $7.70, and at the close of the week $7.43 represented the top. The receipts to-day were small for a Saturdav market and show a decrease of over 5t0 compared with a week ago and nearly 1,500 compared with a year ago. With evidently a limited number of shipping orders in the hands of buyers and other places reported lower the market opened with the bidding lower here out consistent, consequently a trading basis was arranged rather earlv. and with packers the leading buyers the offerings changed hands promptly enough and a clearance was made in good season In a general way the market was reported 5c lower than yesterday, but there were probably occasional sales that represente 7,2,lAc decline. There was not a complete variety of grades represented, and there fore the extremes could not be establishe by sales. The range was from 17.20 to $7.45, and most of the supply sold at 7.25"a7.30. Quotations: Oood to choice medium to heavy.. $7.30'77.45 Mixed and heavy packing i.2o"r7.321 Good to choice light weights 7.25'?

The receipts of sheep and lambs this week have been comparatively small, showing a decrease of nearly 1.200 compared with last week, almost 2,t"0 compared with the same week a year ago and over 500 compared with the corresponding week two.jrears ago Thus far this year the receipts are less than 2,r" larger than the same period last year, while the first of July the increase was nearly l.ooo. There was very little change in prices at the beginning of the week, but later on account of quite a fall ing off in the requirements from outside sources a decidedly weaker tendency de veloped in the market for lambs and at the extreme close of the week they were sell ing usually about 50c lower than the close of last week. Good sheep continue scarce and on that account about steady prices were maintained throughout the week. There was very little change to note in the market for stockers and feeding sheep. The market after Tuesday was benefited by more than an ordinary demand from butchers. The highest prices reported this week were $5.50 for lambs, while at the close $5 was about the top and sheep sold as high as J3.60T3.75. although $3.50 was usually considered the top. There were not enough fresh arrivals ts-dav to estab lish prices for any grade and therefore there is no quotable change or Improve ment to report in the- market compared with yesterday.

S.J. FLETCHER. Pres. C!U5. LATdAH. Castor. S. A. Fl'irCIO, As't Cisi changed much from thofe of last week. There was a scarcity of good fat stock for which butchers were looking, and for which they were bidding strong prices compared with their efforts for the inferior Kinas. Feeders had fair inquiry at lower prices during the fore part of the week, but con ditions improving toward the end sellers met buyers on more equal ground, quota tions: Good to choice steers, 1.350 lbs and upward if J Plain fat steers, 1,350 lbs and up ward .Wil M Good to choice 1.2O0 to 1. 300-1 b steers 6.0" 'i' o.i) rialn fat 1.100 to 1.3O0-lb steers.... 5.60a b.lo Choice feeding steers. 1.000 to 1.20) lbs 4.-o;J l.o Medium feeding steers.

With the lower range of prices from other mar kets this one succeeded in holding steady, with most sales made at strong prices com pared with yesterdaj-. As has been the case on the majority of days this week nearly double the number have been sold. East ern packers took the bulk of the offerings. The high mark was $i.40 for a load or lb hogs, shipped by Utt Rros.. of Brueeville; lnloe & W acner. of Manilla, had a mad averaging 1S7 lbs that fetched $7.50, which was the low mark.

Dan ville, averaging 2oi) lbs. A load of light weights, average 170 lbs, sold at $7.32H- H has been a bad week for the sellers, with a 40-cent decline in prices. The receipts here were comparatively heavy and the quality good generally. On the declining market shippers had more orders than they could nil. They were active buyers all week. The largest daily shipment was eight double-decks. The outlook is good for next week as far as the demand is con cerned. There is a mixed opinion as to the course of prices.

There was nothing here to test the market, but indications were that for fat shp and lambs strong prices would have been paid. The kind that have been marketed this week were of poor quality, apparently the cullings of the farmers flocks. Prices have been going down on account of this, but with improved quality there would be im proved prices, the commission men say.
