The stock market to-day was quiet and in the
main weak. The opening was made at declines
extending to % per cent., while London had a
few buying orders, and brokers identified with
the hull interests v.ere making few purchases.
Traders were sellers, as were also almost all
interests outside of those mentioned. Further
slight declines were made in early trading, but
strength in Lake Shore and New England
rallied the list, and advances were made for
fractional amounts. Louisville and Nashville,
however, soon displayed weakness, and the ad
vance met with a check after the first half
hour, when the entire list gave way. The de
cline made more progress after 11 o’clock, with
southern properties and grangers leading.
There was a slight rally toward noon, but the
market closed heavy at about lowest prices,
though declines are generally only fractional.

Hubbard, Price & Co.’s cotton circular says:
“Tlie advance in Liverpool of from three to
four points had a salutary effect on our open
ing prices this morning, and assisted by the
covering of some short contracts, the market
gained from six to seven points over yesterday
and closed firm. To day has been a short,
though a rather more active one than for some
time past. The fear in Liverpool of a spread
of yellow fever in the South is the cause for the
advance iu that market, and the apprehension
of further unfavorable weather, as predicted iu
the government report, was the additional
reason for the streugth shown here. The
volume and character of receipts from now out
must have an important bearing on the course
of prices.”

Chicago, Sept. 22.—There was fairly active
trading in wheat to-day. and the feeling was un
settled. The opening was strong, with sales at
% ( §,%c above yesterday’s olosiug figures, and
advanced %c more, with only slight fluctua
tions, influenced by reports that the crop of
Dakota and Minnesota would lie 33% per cent,
less than last year, and 10 per cent, additional
short for loss in quality. After fairly active
trading at the advance the market ruled easier
followed by a decline of %c. This reaction
was attributed to the rumors circulated that the
estimated receipts for Monday at Minneapolis
was placed at from 800 to 900 cars, thougli later
advices from there stated that protablv 700 cars
might be received, but that it was all guess
work and nothing positive could be ascertained.
At the closing hour of the sessiou the market
ruled easier, and the closing was about %c
higher for December and unchanged for May.
The feature of the market v.as the selling of
May within 2%0 of December. Speculative
trading in corn was dull, and the feeling de
veloped much weaker. Influences on the
market were the same as heretofore, namely,
large receipts, with no apparent prospect of
falling off. Transactions almost centered in
October, which was w ak, offerings being large
from all quarters, while little or no demand ex
isted. The market opened quite excited, with
sales at the same 6%c below' the closing prices
of yesterday, and quickly sold off %@%e, re
acted %c. but again ruled weak, declining in all
l%c, reacted some and closed with September
and October l@l%c lower than yesterday, and
May %@%c low er. It was said that consider
able corn was delivered this morning, and that
this came on the market creating a weakening.
The demand for cash was less urgent, it being
at one time at a trifle discount, ami this also had
the effect of increasing offerings. Under the
influence of rather liberal receipts and weakness
in corn, oats were weak, closing %e lower than
yesterday. Provisions were dull most of the
time and"fluctuations, as a rule, were narrow.
Lard was dull and about steady, save for No
vember, which was bid up about 20c by manipu
lation. Ribs closed !0e lower for October and
2%c lower for January.
Cash quotations were as follows: Flour
unchanged. Wheat—No. 2 spring 94c, No. 3

A GREAT FISH IN THE NET.
Miss McTavleh of Baltimore Makes
the Bisrereet Catch Yet.
From the New York Herald.
Baltimore, Sept. 19.—A decided sensa
tion was made in society here this after
noon by the report, that Miss Virginia Mc-
Tavish. the daughter of Mrs. Charles Car
roll MeTavish and the granddaughter of
Gen. Winfield Scott, was engaged to the
Duke of Norfolk.
The rumor first came in the shape of a
privato letter from London, and stated that
the duke, who first met Miss McTavish at
a country house, was so attracted by her
daring ritjing across country that he fol
lowed her to Cones, invited her to Castle
Arundel, and finally laid the premier duke
dom of Eugland at her feet.
It was known here by way of substantia
tion of the story which, tor romance and
magnificence, quite overshadows Mrs.
Haniersiey’s recent marriage to the Duke of
Marlborough, that. Miss McTavish is at
present in in gland with her mother; that
she rides wonderfully well; that she has
been at Cowes for the season, and has been
stopping at Arundel Castle.
A cable read uloud at the Maryland club
puts an end to all further doubt as to the
engagement.
The McTavishos by their intermarriages
with the Scottsof Virginia and the Car
rolls of Maryland are connected with the
best blood ot America. They are very rich
and very eccentric. The only son, Charles
Carroll McTavish, after adopting the style
and arms of the earls of Carroll, was sent
ahroad with a tutor, and has ksl the aimless
but harmless life of a weak-minded lad.
The other teo sisters have both retired to
convents, Mias May McTavish, the most
beautiful, being secluded near Brussels, and
Miss McTavish, the eldest, at Mount de
Sales, in Maryland.
Two of Miss MuTavish’s groat aunts mar
ried into the British peerage, ouo becoming
the Duchess of Leeds anil the other tho
Marchioness of Wellesley, and sister-in-’aw
to tho Duke of Wellington; and Miss Mc-
Tavish’s aunt, the HOll. Mrs. Howard, has
already invaded tho Howard family, her
husband being tbe Earl of Carlisle’s son,
and first cousin to the present duke.
THE FAMILY CONNECTIONS.
The Scott* of Virginia are at prevent rep
resented by Mr. Winfield Scott, who lives
iu Richmond. He is tall, stout and very
blond, as was his grandfather, the late gen
eral-in-chief of the United States army and
the conqueror of Mexie .
The family connection in New York is
through the six children of the late Mrs.
Goola Hoyt, who was Gen. Scot’s young
est and most beautifbl daughter, so that the
Messrs. Goold, Winfield Scott and Perfy
Hoyt and the Misses Camilla, Geraldine n;/.d
Virginia Hoyt are about to become first
cousins by marriage to tho premier duke of
England.
Mr. Goold Hoyt is at present in London
and will doubtless play a distinguished part
in the ante-nuptial preparations and remain
for the wedding. Mr. Winfield Scott Hoyt
recently returned from a tour of the world
in the Alva with Mr. and Mrs. William K.
Vanderbilt.
None of the family In Maryland, Vir
ginia or New York had the faintest i lea of
tbe matrimonial intentions of their c jusin,
nor of tbe distinguished connection that
awaited them. Indued, it was repoftod n t
long ago bv those who pretend to keep au
eourant. with the movements and plans of
the British i.obility. that a marriage had
been arrang 'd bet ween the Duke of Nor
folk and a young Englishwoman of rank.
THE BRIDE ELECT.
Mim Virginia McTavish is tall, slight,
very erect and inherit* the fair skin and
blonde hair of the Scotts and Carrolls.
There is nothing of the Daisy Miller type
about her. Though not so peculiarly zealous
as her two sisters, who have renounced the
world entirely, she is a devout Catholic and
has devoted a large portion of her property
to charity. She has an income of about
S3J,OUO a year, derived from the estate of
her late father.
Fortunately enough Arundel Castle, the
chief seat of the Duke of Norfolk, and one
of the show places of England, contains
plenty of Spare bedrooms, so that if the fu
ture Duchess chooses to be amiable to her
American cousins she will lack neither spaeo
nor opportunity.
A MOST NOBLE DUKE.
The duke is short of stature and awkward
in gait. But few would take him for the
chief butler and the premier duke and
hereditary marshal of England. He is a
small man, of that make called an inferior
presence. But no one of his rauk and blood,
it is declared, is more distinguished for
good sense and sound judgment. Altbuu ,'h
a keen sportsman and a lover of manly
games, unlike many of the English
aristocracy, he does not degrade
them by dissipation. On the contrary, all
his efforts have been in the direction of im
proving and educating the masses of the
people. He aids all works of charity and
contributes freely to the Catholic churches
of England. Indeed it would be difficult to
find a man of his position possessed of more
simple habits. Tho duke’s mother was noted
for her large, warm heart and sweetness of
temper. The duke never has more than
one servant with him when he travels, hav
ing none of the luxuries of the age, and his
toilet case would excite the disdain of any
clerk in a dry goods store oil Broadway,
A TRUE CATHOLIC.
Two strong features of his character are
his love of church and family. For years
previous to his marriage with Lady Flora
Hastings, in 1877, he seemed to live only
for his mother and sisters. He attends mass
every morning at 8 o’clock, and he some
times performs the service himself. Not a
week passes that he does not approach the
holy communion table. In all cases of
charity he personally examines tho merits
oi each petition, and if he finds the ap
plicant worthy gives liberally, from SSOO to
$5,000, as the occasion demands. It may be
said, too, that though he was educated
under tho tutorship of the celebrat 'd Dr.
Newman, of polemic fame, the duke is
neither a man of learning nor of real lit
erary tastes, though ho gives liberally and
is interested in behalf of all causes of edu
cation. What he lacks 111 intellectual cult
ure is fully balanced by sound, practical
judgment. His peculiarities have, however,
frequently been made the subjects of rather
severe criticisms, and society writers of
England, always severe on Catholics and
Catholic institutions, have sometimes writ
ten him down to the point of ridicule.
