T., July 12. — The de fence put Carpenter, McQueeny and Cole, co-defendents, on the stand who corrobor : rated Belle In some respects and in others not. They were mainly used for the pur pose of discrediting Turpin, who they claim did all the shooting, not done by Chas. Ward. All are certain the party had neither guns nor pistols but there was a good deal of shooting. Carpenter locates Lair near him nearly all the time, describes the kicking and beating of Elliott and admits that he and Uline said, "dont shoot that man." Car penter also varies his statement before the coroner materially and explains by saying it wasn't correctly written down and was not read to him. McQueeny exhibited his arm to the jury, to show a mark of a wound he said Charles Ward inflicted, it being the fifth 6hot flred' while he was dodging the flashes. In rebuttal the testimony before the coroner was read and admitted under exceptions. An officer of the territory was made to show the declaration of Fred Ward after the first removal of his stock by the Crees party. He consulted with Anderson, receiver of the land office, as to his proper course to preserve his right to the claim, ruled out by the court. This was a surprise to the district attorney (Ball) after the ad mission last evening of Charlie Ward's dec- larations, which Wellington managed to get in. Evidence closed. Argument on requests for instruction will be made on Monday. After the Battle. Chicago, July 12. — There were very few remaining evidences this forenoon of the Democratic convention. The delegates very generally have taken their departure. The club and headquarters banners have been furled, ami hotel corridors have resumed their wonted appearance. On the streets are to be seen a more than usual number of white hats, a number of which are surmount ed by small feathered roosters, the wearing of which has become a sort of rage among the Democracy. Members of the national committee and other officers of the party who are still in the city express confidence as to the strength of the ticket. The delegates generally ex press great satisfaction for the treatmeat re cieved at the hands of the local committee in providing for their comfort. Now that the great convention has come and gone, it is due to the officers and committee of ar rangements that the press should acknowl edge their obligations. The remodeling of the hall made an admirable audience room, and the facilities granted for making, print ing and telegraphing the extensive reports were ample. Special thanks are due to Judge Wm. C. Goudy, in the preliminary arrange ment of the details, and Hon. Austin H. Brown and Col. Richard J. Bright, the effi cient sergeant-at-arms, for the intelligent aid rendered, and just appreciation of the require ments of the press.

'//■'■'' \ t CHICAGO. • Special Telegram to the Globe. | : Chicago, July Trading on 'change was moderately active to-day and prices irregular, but closed steady, the closing figures on wheat being the same as the opening, and this notwithstand- ' ; ing a number of causes which a week ago would have lowered prices materially. Among the ad- * verse influences were the reported ; failure • of a heavy dry goods house in New York and a .com bined effort on the part of the bears r , to | effect j a * continuance of the downward course of the grain market .In the provision pit things were quiet, with "what little interest there was centered in * lard and ribs, but the day's business all around was less than any day this week. . " ) As to , pork, a j prominent broker said to-day : "It isn't the general public or the poor laboring man who has to stand the j racket of this corner * in pork.- . It is the scalper and the small fry ' generally who have to pay g22 a barrel for stuff ' they never see. The laboring man can get all he ' wants for $16. Do you know why? Well, Its ] because Phil Armour and the rest of the gang ( know. that he won't bring it back here to sell.". ' '. Wheat was moderately active and prices irregu- ( lar, being firm and higher early, and then break- i ing off, but at the close ', August was %c higher 1 than yesterday's last sales, and September &c higher. At the opening there was a fair demand J and prices ruled strong ", and - somewhat higher, t but later news WAR rppnivorl r>f n lnrcro TnArefintiln ( failure in New York, when prices began to I weaken and fell off l%c from the highest i point but rallied %c again, eased off and after 1 some fluctuations closed firm at about the open- 1 ing price. September opened steady at 84 He, ' advanced to 84 % c, fell to 83 &c and finally rallied • and closed at 8s There were no large deals ' reported and with tho exception of a email out- i side trade the scalpers did all that was done, i Reports from different grain centers show a i much improved export demand. Prom Milwau kee it is reported that 112,000 bushels of wheat ] were taken there to-day for export. Baltimore follows with 356,000 bushels, New York with 300,000 and Chicago with about 85,000, making '■ an estimated total of over 800,000 bushels. "I don't care what the other fellows told you," said a member of the board to-day, "but in my opinion there is to-day a better export de mand for wheat than we have had for three years. During the last week 2,200,000 bnshels of wheat, including that afloat, has gone over to Europe. lam told by good authority that by the end of the week there will not be in New York more than 300,000 bushels of red winter wheat for export. The stocks in London and Liverpool are low in proportion. On July 4th the combtned supply of wheat in London and Liverpool did not exceed 700,000 bushels. Now, with such figures before you, and the fact that the new crop throughout the country is in no condition to be marketed, how are you going to manufacture a bear argument?" Corn was fairly active but prices were gener ally lower than yesterday afternoon. The open ing was apparently firm and sales were at some advance over yesterday's closing, but the de-. mand soon fell off, the shorts having apparently pretty well cornered during the past few days and bought sparingly to-day. The reported failures in New York and the consequent weakening in wheat brought corn down and August fell 1 % @ lhi c from the highest point, then rallied some again, eased off and closed quiet easy at 52 c for August and 51 % c for September. Oats were more quiet and easier, prites ruling steady for the day with speculative trade slow and few willing to operate. The pork market was quiet bnt strong, July and August closing at $22.50@23.00, or 50c higher than yesterday's quotations. September and October were unchanged, the former being quoted at $21.50 bid and the latter at $19. 50. Year pork ranged at 812.00©12.25. Lard was less active ; trading wag in fact only moderate, and a good share of the day's business consisted of transferring outstanding trades from August to September. August closed at $7.17 Vi and September at $7.32 V %. Short ribs were in fair request for cash and fu ture delivery, and closed at $7.80 August and $7.N7!4 September. There was a brisk demand for all the good droves of native fat cattle and they sold quick at equally high prices as for any day this week and perhaps in some instances higher. For really good corn fed cattle the market clones strong for the week and fully as high as last Saturday. Grassy stock is also a shade stronger than last week, yet this sort of stock is hard to sell at any time. There has been a large increase of Tcxans and they have gradually declined, dropping 10c to day, making the decline on the ordinary run of canners 15@20c for the week. There is a fair business in stackers and feeders, but lean, little things are selling at low prices. Old cows, common bulls and the lower grades of native butchers' stock went again lower, making the decline for the week equal to 20@30c. Canners and butchers prefer the Tezans that are now so plenty and comparatively cheap. Receipts of hogs for the day rather heavy, for the i.i-t in the week, and for the week show a large increase over last week. Owing to the continned differences between the packers and the commission men as to the manner of buying and selling, business is not running along as smoothly as formerly and to-day's trade waß rath er flow, prices uneven and the general market unsatisfactory to all concerned. Ilammill & Brine say: "Continued favorable conditions for the winter wheat harvest now in progress here had a depressing effect on this grain market, and local operators have, for the most part, been dispoacd to reduce their trading to a minimum. Conservative dealers recognize in the current value of wheat a price much lower than has been reached at any similar season for the past twenty year?, and with freights to the seaboard considered, a very much lower price than has ever been known in this or any other primary grain market in the country. The most important wheat crops of the world being as yet unsecured, they feel that any time a very sudden and radical change might occur In favor of holders; all the contingencies of weather yet before us ; while should the present promise of a crop of excellent quality be fortunately realized. It is certain that ! the demand will be good, both for export and consumption, at prices relatively higher than those obtainable for the inferior grades of the i present crop now in seaboard warehouses. We can therefore reiterate our previous opinion, and ny that, while from the absence of activity inci dent to the summer month", or from temporary depression arising from spasmodic financial dis turbances, values should still farther recede, we feel thai purchases made about the present range will pay well, and advise careful baying on all weak spots. "Corn has wildly fluctuated daring the week. Lower prices having ruled early in the week fol lowed by almost entire recovery. There is no especially new features to note, the demand as heretofore, keeping pace fully with the supply; shipments having exceeded receipts during the past week about 200,000 bushels. Crop reports continue favorable and the situation, as com pared with that of last week may be regarded as ; unchanged ; We feel that present prices are likely to be maintained for some time to come, the extremely light supply at all principal points rendering any permanent decline improbable be fore the coming crop b finally received in as good condition and with as favorable a yield as the present outlook would lead us to expect." "Provisions — The advance in mess pork, which took place on Monday last, and which has since been lull} msinulned, exercued a similar ia- NO, 195 Sucnce on the whole list, and there was a sharp Improvement in cut meats and lard. This last. however, has been wholly lost, and although the shipping demand has been about cquai to that of last week, the closing quotations show somu decline from those current at the date of out last." CHICAGO FINANCIAL. I Special Telegram to the Globe.] : CniCAOo, July 12. — demand for money during the week has been active and all the funds seeking , employment i met with ,' ready takers. Firmness has been the prevailing feature and pa per grading "A 1" passed at 6, 7@B per ' cent., the ruling rates being 6@7 per cent. - The banks have not given outsiders any encouragement but have taken care of all of their regular customers. The trade of the city j has been , quiet and the movement of currency moderate ' and in favor of the city. To-day the local money market; was firm under a good demand and rates were steady at 6@7 per cent. ■ Eastern exchange .between city banks was firm at •' 70@75c ' premium ■ per $1,000. • t _____ ___ _____ NEW YORK. Special Telegram to the Globe.l New. York, July — The stock market has dropped into a dull groove with - small changes either way."

Vanderbilt protected Michigan Cen tral but let New York Central take care of itself, with the result of an advance of ■■ }■_ in the one and a decline of V, in the other. The peg seems to have been put into Lake Shore at about 75 and when it drops, as it did this morning, to a notch below, it is shoved up in quick order. Union Pacific has been leas active but strong to-day, and the Gou^d brokers have been quietly buying the Goulo. specialties, which is positive evidence that the "Little Black Man" proposes te march up the hill, and those who must will fol low per force. Texas Pacific shares, to the tune of hundreds of thousands of dollars, are locked up in the Gould vaults in the Mercantile Trust company's cellars, and Texas Pacific has dropped to 8, with Wabash at 5, while ltochester and Pittsburg is nearly out of sight. To-day Texas was jumped 1 per cent, and Wabash Yt in short order, and the gossip of the street is that Gould proposes to put the cats and dogs on tcp and divert attention from thu Tele graph and Missouri Pacific specialties. The fact is that Gould is believed to be in trouble, but hi.s friends say he has grip and grit enough left r«t to put his stocks up or down as he pleases. There are some very hard rumors respecting his Bituation, and the only basis for them appears to be the negotiation of certain loans on Missouri Pacific and it is regarded by some as a "Gould move" — that these loans have been manipulated. Aside from the statement that the Democratic presidential ticket has a good head and a very big tail the office gossip of Wall street to-day rests on Gould's and Sage's probable financial life and the Saturday races. There is little business and no outside trad ing. Condition ot the Chicago Postofflce. Washington, July 12. — Chief of Postoffice In spectors A. G. Sharpe acd Inspector Camp ap pointed as a commission to examine into the con dition of the Chicago postofflce, have made a re port to the postmaster general. They find the postmaster has devoted his time to the office and possesses a good general knowledge of the do tails of the service. The assistant postmaster is experienced and efficient, and well fitted for the position. His duties, however, are somewhat limited under the present organization of the of fice. Some of the most important duties usually performed by the assistant postmaster at large postofflces having been delegated or absenteed by what is termed an auditor." The commission says : We have carefully ex amined work now performed by auditor and are of opinion his duties can be added to those now performed by the assistant postmaster without detriment to the service. We recommend this consolidation be made, and that the three thou sand per annum be paid the auditor be suspend ed from the allowance. A private secretary of the postmaster is carried on the roster at $2,500 per annum. In our judgment tl is posiiion is unnecessary, and as a matter of fact very little service has ever been performed by the party now holding the position. We, therefore, rec ommend that the office be abolished. The com mission believe that two clerks employed in tho weighing division can be dispensed with. Tho superintendents division we found to be efficient and experienced men. The mailing and city delivery divisions are especially well managed. Some additional force is regarded as necessary before beginning the heavy work of the fall and winter. The stations were found in good condition, with the excep tion of fixtures and furniture, which is worn and bhabby from long service. The commission recommend the discontinuance of the pontofflces at Wright, Grove, Bandon and Hnmboldt Park, tfeir places being supplied by sub-stations. They also recommend that an inspector be charged with the duty of Investigating the delivery ter vice, witn a view to its extension, if deemed ad visable, to outlying stations Altogether tho report recommends an allowance of thirty-ono additional clerks at an aggregate salary of §20, -120, and provides for a reduction of $7,460, leav ing a net increase of $12,660.
