Compared wit Saturday night , It shows a net loss'Bf % c Corn lost Uc , oats ic nnd provisions from EC tO KiC. . There wns n good trade In wheat wlthl tt l'c range. The feeling developed wn n. little unsettled , thn tone early bclne stronger , nftcr which n weaker feeling se In nnd the close wns cany nt from ' e t o % c decline. The news nt the start was o a character to encourage noldcrs and Indue buying , T- > start with , cables cnrnc quit strong , both Kngllsh and continental , Liver pool showing n gain of from ' d to % d. The world's shipments worn rn ported smaller than lust week a C,42I,000 bu. and this Imparted n jjood deal of strength to the situation nnd private Liverpool advices stated that th name started the advance there. There wa a ( Iccrpape on ocean pasfnfic of 4SO.OOO Im. which wns also a "bull factor , " anil then the visible supply on this Hldo showed i larger decrenro than figured on. nt TS3,000 bit. , which likewise had a stimulating ten ilcncy. At the advance there was tree nm active felling by thu largo professionals nm prices finally yielded , thu ilemnml not be ing Riilllclcnt to nb'orb the same. The mar kct wns further weakened by moderate ex ports. The weather , too , cut some figure the cold wnvo falling to materialise ; entire tire contrary , warmer conditions being In illcattd ; northwestern recuipts , too , were again larger tbnn last wee * . The break In provisions and oats hail some little effcc on the FCfslon nnd started "longs" to real Izlng , which Increased ns the pensioni nil vnrrcod. May opened 9'c higher ut K-Uic sold between C2c and UVJsc and closed cas > The corn market wns very du'l nnd rathe heavy , but the break In the price was In Blgnlllcnnt , taking Into ounalderatlon the extreme weakness ct oats nnd the n.ttmpy manner In which wheat acted after its c-arly bulge. May opened unchanged a 23c , nold Fparingiy at 23740 and closed n that price bid. . Oats were active , weaker and lower , will free penernl liquidation by longs and sell Ing by local traders. Prices declined' to from fee. to % c nnd the close was tame at the bottom. AIny and July were the active months nnd there were good buying of Jtm nnd selling of May , which spread the dif ference from Me nt the close Saturday to /.c today. The buying was mainly bj snorts and did not attract especial at tention. The market opened steady , bu weakened under rcallz'ng sales. May opcnct at zone , sold at from S > V&c to SOtfc. declined to 19'iic and closed with that nrlco bid , o drop of ? ic since Saturday. July ranged frcrni 20o to 20-4c to 10c and rested with the latter price bid. , An unusually active specu ntlve business was transacted In hog prodlrcts and tlrt market , In a general way , was greatly un settled. The market opened rather 11 rm with moderate buying , mainly to provide for outside order ? , nnd prices were higher tem porarily In sympathy with the hog mar ket. The easiness In the grain markets , however and considerable desire to unload by longs caused a decidedly lower market As prices declined there wns considerable pressure to sell , especially by parties car rying property on stop loss orders and on narrow margin ? , which resulted In a marked decline on all the speculative articles. At Insldo figures the demand Improved con siderably and purchases were falr.y liberal nnd chiefly credited to shorts. Prices , how ever , rallied slightly , ns buyers were un willing to follow any advance. The market closed steady at n , small Improvement on the insldo figures , reached.

Thla lu the time of year to write depressing stories about hides , according to the Shoe am Leather llevlew. March hides arc , as every one knows , the worst of the year. It Is an old stor > of how hides that would K3 Into the light weights If short-haired when long-haired nm dirty weigh sixty-one pounds or msru and brink Ic per pound more. All these matters should of course be consid ered by the prudent buyer , but his scrutiny should not end there. . Jt Is a fact that hide' thla winter , while , runnlmr.erubby , arc not In bat condition. The winter' has bacn a mild one nm the tnke-olT Is loss undesirable than usual. The packers are not very Insistent on prices nm conc < mlons are easily secured as the nuallts leprcclntea. The packers ore , however , slmulat- n a weakness they do not feel. Their principal inrlety Is to enter the short-haired o.-oson will- no lonK-halred hides on hand. The packers are lot altogether succecsful In disguising their iroject , which Is to engineer a suUituntlnl ad vance before the June roses arc In bloom.

" A few of the leading workers In the Manu facturers and Consumers association , the well known exponent ot "Patronize Homo Industry , " with members all over tlre'etate of Nebraska , are entitled to the credit for conceiving the organization. They had ob served what other states were doing all over the west and northwest. The matter wns formally presented to the board of di rectors , the original proposition being that the association would undertake Immigra tion as a part of Its work. A special meet ing of the board of directors wns called , at which the committee appointed to devise a plan of action reported that under the articles of Incorporation of the association , Its phases of work were so proscribed and different that ns a corporation It could nat legally enter the Immigration field. The members of the board thereupon adjourned , and Imme diately formed the nucleus about which has developed "Tho Nebraska Club. " COUUTX1SV HAD HIS DAV IN COUItT. l ( lie Otlleer , 1mt Not Until After He WIIH AxMiitilteil. In the criminal court yesterday the case of Mike Courtney was called for trial. Courtney was chorgcJ with assaulting Police man Sebck and was convicted hi the- police court , taking air appeal to the district court. Courtney's attorney brought up a motion to quash on the ground that the examining magistrate , Police Judge Hcrlia , had used a rubber stamp In signing the docket of the police court. The dockets of the police court were pro duced In evidence and It appeared that the record of the proceedings , a book kept by the clerk of the police court , was not signed by the juclgo at all. One of the dockets contained entries of some of the cases and appeared to bo entirely superfluous ; the entries In this docket were signed with n rubber stamp , bearing the name , "Louis Doika , " In ordinary type. Thu transcript docket , In which were entered all appealed cases , was a complete record and was signed by the police Judge with a pen. Judge Baker examined thu several records and refused to consider the motion , saying that It was not a proper proceeding and that the rubber stamp was not a material point. The case then went to trial and the ovl- dcnco was submitted on both sides. Under the Instructions of the court the Jury re turned a verdict of not guilty , the court holding that there was not evidence suffi cient to warrant the bringing of the cabe. The evidence showed that the policeman as saulted the defendant first , but the de fendant , who was Intoxicated , then pitched Into the policeman and knocked him Into the gutter. .Minor MM Horn in Court.

The Jury In tbo case of Frank Szczepanlak charged with assaulting Anton Inda , re turned a verdict ot not guilty.

Orniitcil an tlio flrnniul nt DcMcrtliin lliiiliiiiKl'M Hill Ignored. on Acrotint of l nlliiro tu * - TUKNTO.N' , N. J. , March M. Chanccllcr .Mcfllll filed a ilecrcotoilny RrnntliiR nn nb- solute divorce to Mrs , Charlotte Coleman Droyton from J. Colcmnn Drayton on the grounit of desertion. Mrs. Drnytcm Is the dniiRlitcr uf the Into \Vllllatn Astor , Nona of the evidence taken In the cnsu Is on flla In the chancery clerk's olllro , all hclng In the possession of the clinnccllor. in the hcRlnnlnR the decree says : "It Is Impossible to escape the conviction tlmt the Orfcmlnnt'u suspicions of his wlte't Infidelity were not destitute ot foundation In questionable circumstances at least , hut I fall to find any Judicial precedent which holds that under a statute similar to that ot this state a husband may with Impunity be polity of desertion of his wife , merely because he believes her , even under gravely suspicious circumstances , to have been guilty of adultery. "Desertion , " the chancellor holds , "Is Justified only when It Is shown by clear and satisfactory proof that the deserting party has been so offended against as to authorize nt his Instance a decree for divorce or Judicial sepo ration. "If the defendant would rely upon his charge of adultery as n defense against her charge of desertion , ho must prove IU There Is no evidence that It was the Inten tion of the defendant at the llmo he left tlm petitioner to Institute a suit for divorce on the ground of adultery. , _ IIo did , In fact , commence such a suit In June , 1SSI. a tlmo BO remote from the commencement of the separation that more than the period pro scribed by law In which desertion must con tinue to contribute a cause for divorce had. Intervened and thereby n causa for divorce had become available to her , and even after tire lapse of ilmt tlmo his suit was not prosecuted with diligence. "A moro Institution of a suit 'for ' dlvorco en the ground of adultery will not avail as a clefenso to a milt for dlvorco on the ground of deportlon. The adultery must bo proved. It was the hup'jand'o duty to net expo- dltlously , BO that his wlfo slrsuld not remain longer than necciclty required , If guilty , un- convlcted , and If Innocent , under the shadow of such a scandalous nnd disgraceful thargo. " The chancellor llnds that there was no collusion on the part of the husband and wlfo to secitro a divorce and Kiyn that the mcro fact that both desired to bo divorced decs not constitute collusion. There must be a dis agreement. In the decree reference to the testimony la made , but the chancellor does not mention Hallet Alsap Dorrowo by name. "One B - , a neighbor , " | y , however , re ferred to and "this ono 13 - " is mentioned as having been named as a co-respondent In the suit brought by Drayton against his wlfo. Borrowo was co-respondent In that suit. In reviewing tire testimony the chancellor says It appeared that Drayton questioned hlo wife's fidelity while they were living at Dernardsvllle , In thla etato , and that she then went to her father's home. This was In October , 1891. In November a partial reconciliation was effected between Mr. and1 Mra. Drayton. They then went to England and while there the estrangement widened and Mrs. Drayton , according to her own testimony , became un happy and miserable nnd determined that separation was necessary. Having no ono In whom to confide , she telegraphed to America for D , and he met her at n Lon don hotel , where arrangements had been made for her to meet nn American lawyer. The lawyer was late lr > arriving , nnd Mrs. Drayton and B went. Into another 766m" where they had lunch , a waiter being In the room with them. While In this room Drayton and two men , presumably detec tives , entered and Identified her , afterward departing. After this , In accordance with nn arrangement between Jrer lawyer and her husband's lawyer , Mrs. Drayton went to Wimbledon to bed her children goodbye. She then wont to Paris to meet her father , who persuaded her to seek a reconciliation for tho.sako of the children. The chancellor says ho Is satisfied that this effort at reconciliation was made In good faith by Mrs. Drayton , but was rejected by her hueband , because of his continued belief in her unfaithfulness. Ho points out that the legal tlrno for bringing n suit for desertion had elapsed , and that the desertion was willful , continued and obstinate. The only point , he says , was whether the deser tion was Justifiable. Ho refers to the fact that the husband's suit for dlvorco on the ground of adultery -was not brought until June , ISO I , and that since that time no proof of the adultery had been adduced , and that In the present suit the husband made no charge of adultery , but contented himself with a denial of the desertion. It Is not a miracle. It won't euro every thing , but It will euro piles. That's what DeWItt's Witch Hazel Salve will do , because - cause It has done It In hundreds of cases.
