a Sudden Drop ,
CHICAGO , April 11. Wheat broke sharply
on the report of the loading back Into ele
vators of wheat that had been held In ves
sels , May closing % c lower. Mny corn lost
Vtc , May oats lost > /jC and provisions fin
ished at a decline , The novernmcnt report ,
which gave the condition of wheat at 81.4 ,
made very little Impression on the market.
The prices opened just u shade under the
rate ruling at the close of vcsterday's ses-
clon , but teen the slight decline waa taken
advantage of by some of the shorts to
lessen the bulk of the previous sales. May
eold nt C5c nt the opening and cased off to
Cn c , which latter was the point at which
the shorts bought. The buying by shoits
KOt u further Incentive from the reported
ealc of 1 0,000 bu. of wheat taken for ship
ment to Haltlmore early In the forenoon.
The price rose to C5 ,4c under lhat and
rumors of the likelihood of considerable
more being worked before the day was
over. The northwestern receipts were light ,
Minneapolis and luluth reporting only 200
cars , compared with 330 the corresponding
day of last year. Liverpool was quoted tin
changed In price , but holders vry firm.
New York wired here early In the day that
foreigners were free sellers of distant fu
tures In that mnrk.-t. At the advance
named above , Pardrldge and those who hud
calls likewise sold with considerable conn
dcnce , nnd owing to the further fact on to
morrow there will be no sesslnn of the
Board of Trade , the bullish feeling Was
suppressed for a time and the early rise
was lost , the price gelling down again to
05c. At about that stage It became lumored
that nn operator who had carried a lot of
wheat all winter In vessels , because It was
cheaper to do so than to pay the regular
Hlorngc charges , nnd hnd reserved the privi
lege of unloading It back Into the elevators
again , had seen III to exercise tha latter
privilege. The market had n further break
when the latter report got Into clrculatlo
nnd It sold as low ns MC'tiC for a few nun.
utos and closed wllh buyers at that.
Corn was strong early and weak late. It
openeil ut 4ji c for May , sola off to from
4Mic to 4Vc { , , advanced to 4Bc , tomblei1
back to 45Vic nnd closeil ntWic. . The re
cclnta were 103 cnrs , and 120 nn ; cHtlmatei.
for tomorrow. The advance nt the stnri
wns on a good demand for May , which
started Home shorts Jo covering , although
the early buyers of Mny Hold to an cqun
extent. The hitter weakness was due to the
drop In wheat.
Until within nn hour of the close little of
Importance transpired In the oats market
The feeling wns Ilnner and prices somewhat
higher on fair buying and sympathy wltl
wheat and corn. The change In the situa
tion wns sudden and unlocked for. Almosf
everybody was offering Fluff nt one time
longH , elevator people and the crowd In
general. J. J. I.lmlemnn nnd N. U. Hoatr
were probably the heaviest disposers. The
early ndvanie of fron lie to lie was lost , be.

Bold up to from 2'J ,4c to 2Dc and dropnet
to 2&e , at which price the market closed.
The provision market opened strong am
closed weak at lEc loss for the day In pork
Go In lard and 7'fcc In ribs. The hog re
celpts were 22cCO head , with 17,000 head cs
tltnatcd for tomorrow. The weakness wat ,
the result of lower prices for live hogs nnd
the break In the grain markets.

The receipts today were 1,430 cnttle , 3,011

6,013 hogs and 1,542 sheep on yesterday nnd
S76 cattle , 3,033 hogs and 1.07J sheen on

sheep for the same four days last week.
CATTLE With only fifty-four fresh loads
of cattle In the yards
, after a moderate run
nil the week , It would seem that there ought
to have been a good active demand for
beeves. Such , however , was not the case.
All the snap and life that characterized the
market last week has suddenly disappeared.
The trade tills morningwns dull nnd
draggy and the buyers wcro fully ns Indif
ferent as on the previous days of this week.
In the end the bulk of the beeves changed
Imnds , but the buyers succeeded In reduc
ing prices about lOo. Some fair natives
brought J3.23iio.-I0.
Cows and heifers did not show much
change from yesterday's market. There
were ns usual only a few here nnd the buy
ers were not long In picking them up. The
lilgh prices at which the bst steer beef has
been felling has Increased the demand for
cow beaf , and desirable fat cows and heifers
sell about the most readily of anything
coming to market. There wns one bunch
of cows hero that brought tt.23 , and a few
heifers sold as high ns JI.60.
Ihere was a great plenty of stockers and
feeders In the ynids , but , as was the case
yesterday , the disposition to buy wns want-
Ing. The market today was , at the least
calculation , 23c lower than last week. The
feeling today appeared to be that the de
cline of this week has brought the market
down to a point where the cattle are well
worth the money. There arc several buy
ers In the yards who want big strings of
cattle , nnd when the price gets down so as
to meet their Ideas there ought to be n
good active market. Representative sales ;

HOGS In addition to the ilfty-two fresh loads
of hoga on sale this morning there were nn even
1.000 carried over from yesterday. The receipts
today were about the same , so far as numl' ift
were coneemeil , ns on Thursday of Isst week ,
when fifty-four loads were counted In the yards.
The average quality of the hog > i was about the
same as yesterday , there biHnc a few ROM !
heavy hogs anil a good many light nml medium
weights. The conditions governing the market
were clearly on the Fide of the buyers , reports
from other markets Indicating a decided decline.
As a natural consciiuence the market here opened
about 6c lower anil the bulk of the hogs sold on
that basis. The movement was fairly active for
a down market nnd the bulk of the hogs sold
early and the pens were cleared before midday.
A large proportion of the hogs sold nt from J4.70
to J4.80 , with the top at J1.90. Bepresentatlve

an action imalnst Its defaulting rmmty
treasurer nml all the sureties on Ills two
olllcl.ll bonds the treasurer bavins been
elected for two lenns the yunlli-M on said
bonds beliiK different persons. The petition
alleged that the cx-trca.Miror was Insolvent ,
and that the county was unablu to prosecute
nn action at law on either of said bonds , be
cause the books ami records kept by the
treasurer did not disclose when the defalca
tion complained of occurred , and there was
no evidence known to the county by which
It could prove , In an action at law , whether

urer'B llrst or second term of olllce. The

of the petition made out a cause of action
In favor of the county upon contracts for
the payment of money only unltu umbered
by any collateral agreements , contrncts , or
securities whatever. (2) ( ) That the action was
one legal In Us nature. (3) ( ) That the f.icts
averred In the petition were not sulllelenl to
entitle the county to equitable relief. (4) ( )
That the county would not bo permitted to
make use of a state of facts brought about
by the neglect of the legal duties of Us
county board to deprive the sureties on
their treasurer's olllclal bond of their con
stitutional right to a Jury trial. (5) ( ) That the
sureties on the treasurer's bnnd were en
titled to a Jury for the trial of the Issues of
fact made by the plcadln M.
Rochester Ixian nnd Hanking company et
al against the Liberty Insurance company
Krror from Douglas county. Rovers"il and
remanded. Opinion by Commissioner Hngan.
An Insurance contract piovldod Unit the
P3llcy should u > veld If the Interest of the Insured -
sured In the premises was other than uncon
ditional and sole ownership ; It the Insured
premises bu or become vacant or unoccupied
and so remain for ten days ; that In case of a
lire the Insured should furnl.ih tlu > Insurer
proof of loss , lu a suit upon such p ilicy
the Insurer Interposed the defense that the
Insured did not furnish proof of loss as re-
cpjlrcd by the Itollcy. (1) ( ) An allldavlt made
by the Insured and furnished to the In
surer containing certain statements cone rn-
Ing the ( Ho , set out In the opinion nnd held
lo substantially comply with the provision
of the policy requiring the Insured to fur
nish the Insurer proof of loss. (2) ( ) That the
Insurance company , by refusing to pay the
loss and defending the action on the ground
that the policy In suit was not In force nt
the date of the loss , thereby waived the
furnishing to It of any proof of loss what
ever. Dwelling House Insurance company
ngalnst Mrewster , fil N. W. , 740 , and cases
there cited , followed.
2. A second defense of the Insurer was
that the Insured , nt the date of the Issuance
of the policy , was not the sole and uncondi
tional owner of the tn Rural real estate.
Held : (1) ( ) That this Issue was one of fact
for determination by the jury , and the dis
trict court erred In not submitting them.
(2) ( ) If , by a loss , the holder of an Interest In
> roperty Is deprived of the ixissesslon , en-
! oyincnt , or prollt thereof , or n security or
leu resting thereon , or other certain bene
fits growing out of or depending UK > n such
property , he has an Insurable Interest there
in. German Insurance company ngalnst
Hyman. 34 Neb. , 701 , followed. (3) ( ) It seems
that where a jwllcy Is Issued to one who
holds the legal title to real estate , where
no Inquiries arc made as to whether any
other person Is Interested In such property ,
and no representations nrc made by the In
sured further than that he Is the owner of
the premises , that it Is not n defense to
the Insurance company , In an action on
such policy , that the Insured , though hold
ing the legal title to the promises , wns a
mere trustee for an undisclosed beneficiary.
3. The third defense of the Insurance com
pany wns that the Insured property , at the
time of the Issuing of the policy In suit ,
was vacant , nnd nt the dale of the tire had
been vacant and unoccupied for ten days.
The Insured admitted the facts of the de
fense , but pleaded In avoidance thereof
that the Insurer Issued the policy In suit
with actual knowledge of the fact that the
Insured property was then vacant nnd un
occupied. Held : (1) ( ) That the provision In
the policy rendering1 It void In case the In
sured property was at ths dale of the
policy or should afterward become vacant
or unoccupied was Inserted therein for the
benefit of the Insurer. (2) ( ) That the exist
ence of the vacancy at the date of the ISHU-
ance of the policy did not render the policy
In suit void , but voidable at the election of
the Insurer. (3) ( ) That as the Insurer Issued
the policy In sull wllh actual knowledge
of the fact that the Insured premises were
at the time vacant nnd unoccupied. It Is
now estopped from alleging such vacancy
as a defense to an acllon on the policy. (4) ( )
That the knowledge of the agent of the In
surance company that the properly Insured
wns vncanl at the date of the Issuance of
the policy In suit was the knowledge of the
company.

Oj > lulon by Commissioner Kagnn.
lly the terms of a written contract be
tween Champlln and Tsclmnnen the former
agreed to sell and convoy certain real es
tate to the latter on his making rcrtaln
payments. The contract provided that
Tschnnnen's failure to make any one of the
payments at Us maturity should entitle
Champlln to the Immediate possession of
the real estate.
Tsclmnnen took possession of the prstnlscs
and built a frame house thereon , In which
he and his family took up their residence.
Tschnnncn made default In the payments
promised. At a time when Tschnnnen was
absent from home , but while his family nnd
household goods vere In Ihe house , Champ
lln caused a workman to go upon the prem
ises , without the knowledge or consent of
Tschannen , nnd erect a foundation urder
the house. Tsclmnnon then sold the house
to his mother-in-law , then residing with
him therein , and she removed It to an ad
joining lot , and with her family watt resid
ing therein when Champlln replcvlntd the
house and caused the sheriff to remove It
back to the lot on which It was originally
erected , the mother-in-law and family re
maining therein during and after ' the
transit. Held : (1) ( That Champlln , In caus
ing the workman to go upon the premises
and put a foundation under the house , did
not by such net acquire possession of said
house. (2) ) That by nald net Champlln vas
guilty of trespass , nnd whatever possession
of the house he acquired thereby wns
wrongful. (3) ( ) That possession of property
obtained by trespass cannot be made the
basis of nn action of replevin for the pos
session of such properly. (4) ( ) That Tsclmn-
nen's default In making the payments prom
ised did not authorize Champlln to retake
possession of the premises with force nnd
arms. (5) ( ) That the provision In Ihe con
tract that If Tschannen made default In his
paymenls Champlln should be entitled to
take Immediate possession of the premises
meant no more than that such default
should confer a right of action on Champ
lln for the possession of the premises. ( U )
That the relation of vendor and vendee cre
ated between Champlln nnd Tschannen by
the contract was not changed by Tsclmn-
ncn's default Into that of landlord and
tenant. (7) ( ) That at the time Champlln
brought this suit he had no such possessory
rights to the property replevlnod as would
enable him to maintain an action of tres
pass against Tschannen's vendee for her In
terference with such properly , und there
fore ho could not maintain this action.
