TORONTO LIVE STOCK MARKET
Monday being a public holiday not
much business was done at the Western
Cattle Market, bat it was all made up
for next day in an increased amount of
trade. There was a good market all
round, offerings being liberal but all
taken. Receipts were 34 car toads, in-.
eluding 350 hogs and about 150 sheep
and lambs and 135 calves. Receipts for
week ending Saturday, May 23 ;-4,429
cattle, 248 sheep and lambs, and 1,225
hogs; weigh -freight, $65.35.
CATTLE.—There was a good trade done
in shippers, and butchers' cattle are a
little firmer. Several Ottawa buyers
were at the market, and bought sundry
car loads of butchers' cattle for looal
consumption at the Capital. Their was
a slight advance in quotations, but it
may be looked upon as merely super-
ficial, because it was caused by the in-
tervention of yesterday's inactivity.
One lot of extra choice shippers brought
5.1c per lb, but these were exceptionally
fine animals and the price cannot be
taken • as a criterion. Good average
ehippersbringfrom 5ic to 5Ic per lb live
weight. One lot of heifers and steers
and a few fat cows were taken at 4gc,
and select finer cattle sold at 4o per
Ib. Best butchers' cattle touched 5c per
lb, there being a pretty fair market for
these with a good local demand.

killing apig, the animal got cross and
caused considerable trouble. The knife
need was somewhat dull and when Mr
Broderick plunged it into the pig's neck
it failed to reach the vital spot. The
pig grasped Mr Broderick by the hand,
biting the thumb clear off. It then got
loose and ran away with the knife in

procured and the brute was subsequently
despatched, but Joseph still mourns

D DICKINSON, MANNING & SCOTT,
Auctioneer Vendor's Solicitors
Clinton, May, 1891,
The warmer weather of theAiast
week, with intermittent sowers which
have fallen, have been of great benefit
to the growing crops. More rain is,
however, wanted, for vegetation gener -
ally is very backward. It is a curious
foot thati n spite of tho abnormal char-
acter of the winter and the spring, the
reports from farmers concerning wheat
are not unfavorable; the crop in fact, is
described as backward. but in good con-
dition. This is perhaps more particul-
arly the case in the . eastern, southern
and south-western counties. The bar-
ley, too, is by no means unpromising,
but oats are sadly in need of .moisture.
In France the warmer weather and the
slight rain -fall has greatly improved all
spring sown crops, including the wheat,
but the winter sown wheat and rye
crops are evidently in a bad condition;
the former being described as deplor-
able. In Germany the more favorable
weather has improved the outlook, but
it is stated that even with the best
weather it will be impossible to repair
all -the damage. The same is the case
in Holland, where, according to a Gron-
ingen report in yesterday's list, the iney
jury done the crops has been by no
means exaggerated, the greater part of
the winter wheat, barley and rape need
crops in that distriot being practically
lost. From Spain and Italy the reporte
ere, on the whole, more favorable, while
from Algeria they leave little to desire.
In the south of Russia the recent finer
weather is said to have greatly improved
the crop prospects. Complaints from
some districts are still received, but al-
together the outlook is now much better
than was expected a few weeks ago.
It was observed in the review of April
25 that as that time of excitement might
serve as an opportue warning, in the
event of fine weather in may and June,
some material recovery in tkecondition
of the crops, and more certainly still, a
temporary reaction isrices of wheat,
had to be expoeted. Sino that date
this prediction has bean realized -toper
haps a larger extent than had been gen-
erally looked forward to. The effect of
persistently fine weather is habitually
so great at this time of year that it will
be advisable to remain fully mindful of
this fact, without having to alter or re-
tract anything that has, for some time
past, been advanced regarding the
strength of the general situation, _ in
which latter the exhaustion of the old
stocks everywhere forms the most
powerful element for relying on an ulti-
mate recovery in prices.
Captain Porter, of the United States
Secret Servide, has arrested Rev. Jere-
miah Holmes, pastor of the Campbellite
chnroh, at Dnquoin,111., for counterfeit-
ing. Mr Holmes has a wife and six
children, and says his salary was so
small he had to do something today his
expenses, and admitted making the
counterfeit coin. -

was within two feet. The hand was
