The stock market was very active to day, and
notwithstanding phenomenal gains at the open
ing. was weak and depressed throughout the
dav, with a majority of stock *at the lowest
prices of the week. The Reading reorganiza
tion success made a revulsion of feeling among
the holders of stocks ami the market rebounded
from yesterday's depression at the opening of
the board, and among the smaller bears a short
panic occurred, while heavy buying was notice
able all along the line. The bear leaders, how -
ever, becoming alarmed, attacked the list ar.d
an avalanche of stocks was pressed upon the
market, quickly turning the tide in a downward
direction, while the influence of the Depew in
terview' was still felt to some extent. Many
timid holders threw over their stocks .and the
decline met with no check during the session.
The ojxming was remarkably strong, most
stocks showing advances over yesterday's final
figures of from W percent. The market
began to decline immediately, though Louisville
and Nashville made a fractional advance in the
early dealings. Western Union was the most
conspicuous in the early dealing, but New* Jersey
Central, Reading and Northwestern afterward
became leaders of the decline. There were one
or two halts in the downward movement, but, no
reaction whatever, and after the issue of the
bank statement the movement was accelerated
and the close was active and weak at the lowest
prices of the day. The business amounted to
299,000 shares. The majority of the list are
lower, although NOl folk and Western preferred
gained 1 per cent. The gains are few and unim
portant. New Jersey Central lost Missouri

t*reen & Co.'s renort on cotton futures savs:
“The feverish feeling on cotton options con
tinues unabated and fluctuation* have been
sharp and numerous during the day. but gener
ally ranging lower. Europe did no: send much
encouragement, and this appeared to create a
desire among a portion of the I mgs to unload,
keeping a pretty large supply offering and per
mitting a final raid that sent values to the
low est, or about Bor 9 points decline, with the
closing tone weak. There has. however, been
some excellent buying during the session and is
represented by strong parties, who appear to be
making a determined effort to sustain the mar
ket."

Chicago. Oct. 15.—Wneat remained steady
to-day, although cables were the poorest of the
week, making the foreign demand limited for
spot and poor for futures. Trading was la- king
in animation, and fluctuations were within the
narrow’ range of 3£o. Closing prices were almost
identical wiilr the last figures of yesterday. As
usual, there w*as speculation as to the next visi
ble supply figures, and it was claimed that the
wheat market closed firm on the strength of a
probable increase of only 500,000 bushels, but
the pcs red figures of the week would seem to
indicate that the estimate was far too small.
Statistics were a little better to-day, as ciear
anee.*> at Atlantic ports reached 238,060 bushels,
and there was a falling off in receipt* at several
initial points. Trie heaviest rece.pts were at
Chicago. Milwaukee, Minneapolis and Duluth,
where the aggregate urasaUjut 450.0U0 bushels.
Local range to-dav was: November at 7<ri v >
December 72@,75%c, May <7%<3)74%c.
The closing prices for the day and werk were:
October 69>$e, November 7094 c, December 72V* 8 c,
May 77te>e. A leading operator in corn was
seller again to-day, and there was a slight de
cline in year futures, May losing but 1 point and
closing at 44ffec, or lyftc wider the price on last
Saturday. Receipts are larger than estimated,
and expected arrivals for Monday showed 0011
siderable increase. October and November
closed at 41(&Al l /£c under the price of one week
ago. There wa very light trading, and no oat
side orders. Oats opened a little steamer, and
for October a steady market was maintained,
but other deliveries became dull and easy.
Prices remained within yesterday's range.
Provisions were weaker, and the volume of
business was small. The weakness was caused
by heavy receipts of hogs. Holders of produce
did not appear anxious to press their property
on the market, as by so doing .they would have
to accept matt r ally lower prices. Lard was the
weakest article ou the list, and long 1.1 ires de
clined October was held firm at $ > 25.
November sold at $6 20(g,fl 22h. October short

THE PK&SIDENI’S NERVE.
He Isn’t Afraid of Cranks and to Not
Easily beared.
New York, Oct. 15. —I asked Inspector
Byrnes, a day or two ago, whether in his
opinion President Cleveland was exposed to
any serious danger from attack by An
chists or cranks of other sorts during his
travels. The Inspector expressed the ut
most confidence that the President was all
right, and tiiat his sufety would be psaired.
A* to the means to tins end the Inspector
declined to lie interviewed on the ground
that he didn’t know anything about it, aui
furthermore ho wouldn’t tel). It was com
forting to know that so deeply experienced
a detective as the Inspector hail no fears
for the nation's chief, but be tempore t bis
opinion somewhat by saying that he did not
know of any case where police protection
had saved a President from harm. “When
ever anybody had gone for a President,”
said the Inspector, laconically, “They got
him.”
Then shifting the subject with that dex
terity which makes the Inspector a very
hard man to interview, he said: “Mr.
Cleveland isn’t afraid of cranks; lie’s a man
of nerve. I saw him once in a position where
1 believe ho was the only nian who was nut
frightened or startlivl to say the least. It
was just before bis inauguration, as he was
leaving New York on a train out of the
Grand Central depot. He stood on the rear
platform of the last car bowing to the
crowd. I was standing quite near
him, though I was not upon the
train. Ju:t us it began to move
there wa> a loud explosion, somewhere in
the immediate vicinity of Mr. Cleveland.
It is safe to say that every body in the
crowd jumped —except the President elect.
He did not move a muscle, though the re
|xirt was right under his feet. He stood
with his hand resting on the iron railing of
the car—not clasping it, but just, lying
there. Now, I have observed that when a
man is startled, if ho has hold of anything,
lie will grip it tighter, but if his hand sim
ply lies loos?, he will draw it toward him.
This is human nature. Mr. Cleveland’s
hand did not move at all, and he went right
ou smiling just too same. Ttien the crowd
found out that there hadn't been any
dynamite explosion; it was a large railroad
torpedo that ha l been placed on the rail
betw .n i 'C wheels of the car for the
purpose of lending a sort of Fourth
of July aspect to the scene. Perfectly
harmless of course, but the noise it made
was something fearful. Since then I've
had a good opinion of the President’s
nerve.’’
“Of his inertia, you mean,” said a by
stander; “he probably jumped as high as
anybody only he didn’t get round to it till
tlie train was out ill Connecticut.”
“Or perhaps somebody told hint that the
thing was there,” said another.
But were these ex-Mugwumps and I prefer
to side with the Inspector.

The London Costermongeress.
London, Oct. I.—Tlie oostermongeress is
a novel feature of London streets. The
peripatetic Jack has been a part of English
life since its earliest annals. Autolycuc,
the roguish clown < f “The \Y’ inter’s Tale,"
comes to the sheep shearing with a pack of
commodities which he thus enumerates in
his song:
Lawn, as white as driven snow;
Cvprus, black as ere was crow:
Gloves, as sweet as damask roses;
Masks for faces and for noses:
Bugie-bracelet, necklace amber,
Perfume fpr a lady's chamber:
Golden quoits and stomachers,
For my lads to give their dears;
Pins aiid poking sticks of steel,
YVhat maids lack from bead to heel.
Come buy of me, come: Come buy, come
buy:
Buy, lads, or else your lasses cry!
The costermonger!:ig trade in London is
carried on by means of barrows with au
extensive tablelike top on which the wares
are displayed, and the vendor hitherto has
been a man of such rough appearance and
vulgar bearing that “the manners of a
coster” have passed into a proverb as the
worst possible. The merchand.se sold by
costermougers is generally confined to fish,
fruit, vegetables and flowering plants; and
although the edible wares are not the bast
the market affords, they ne . ertheless find
many eager purchasers in tho*e outlying
neighborhoods where go and provision stores
are not so numerous as in the more po ulous
quarters. A pretty plant, too, is a thing
which is welcome in every home, however
humble, and bright carnations and gay
tulips in their season find ruauy patrons at
sixpence a pot.
it remained for women to hit on anew
idea, and with it boldly to invade a long
male-guarded field of profit. T o street
peddleress docks her barrow top with a clean
white cloth, provides herself with a shining
pair of brass scales and weights and a pile
of spotless wrapping paper. The toothsome
dainty she sells off rapidly in the crowded
London streets is “the deheiou ; M intolimurt
Nougat, the exquisite new almond sweet!”
Cornucopias of pink and white paper filled
with the*pretty candy sell with great rap
idity to passers at a peuuy apiece. As for
the costermongeri s> herself, she is as fri sh
and comely as ala ge, clean white apron
with bib a id sleeves, neat hat and smart
gown can make her. In radiant cleanliness
she vies with that marvel of neatness, tlie
London milkmaid, and is doubtless destined
to Become, like the latter, an < stab isiiod
character in the diversified life of London
