CHICAno , March 23.-As the rtsult of n

bottom price of the day. Compared wit

Corn lost Uc , oats ic nnd provisions from

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

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.

HIDES AND TALLOW.
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. Quota-

CATTIjB-Thc receipts \vcro nbout like the
n. unl Monday's run , only 1,131 head being
reported In. As to the Hind of cattle on sale
thcro was n train of western feeders nnd
the balance of tire receipts consisted almost
entirely of cornfcd native steers.
The market on beef cattle was In n very
satisfactory condition. The demand was
Rood nnd the market a little stronger all
around. Among the offerings were a few
rlglrt good cattle nnd ns high ns $1 wns
paid for some. Practically everything wns
sold early In the day.
There were barely two loads of cow stuff
on snle , or not enough to establish values.
The feeling , however , was strong nnd had
there been anything hereIt would no doubt
have sold readily nt fully steady nnd per-
hRp < t n little better prices.
Tlio offerings of feeders were the largest
In some days , there bclnn n train of west
erns here , ns noted above. Tire market on
desirable light cattle was strong and other
grades about steady. Representative sales :

day at this point , being extremely lljht. ; Opern-
tlonn wcr ? so limited by the small number of
bogs on sale that It could hardly be called n
market. The buyers wanted hogs nnd they put
on Co , bidding $3.75 for the bulk nnd J3.80 for the
tops. Salesmen seemed t3 want J3.80 for nltout
everything and owing to the difference of opinion
as to the matter of valuca the trade was slow.

Dear Sir Answering yours of the 10th , since
February 1 sixty-five cars of 'emigrant
movables , ' so-called , have entered northeastern -
eastern Nebraska , their dcotlnallon. hclnR
over the Chicago , St. Paul , Minneapolis &
Omah.1 railway , via Omaha. Illnlr nnd Sioux
City. This represents only n small part of
thn largo Immigration Into the state over nil
the roads the past few weeks. Evidently
the efforts of the Nebraska clnli arc already
brlpglnc about the desired results.
H. S. JAYNHS , Superintendent. "
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. "

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.

The case against Matthew O. Daxon ,
charged by the Gormully & Jeffreys Manu
facturing company with embezzlement In the
sum ot 11,120 , will be called for trial
WedncBlay or tht&"wcel { , according lo the
plans of the county attorney.
Martin Kelley was placed on trial In the
criminal court on the charge of assault and
battery , a city case appealed from the police
court. Kelley wns discharged by the court
on account ot a defect In the Information
the name of the defendant having been
emitted. .
The Jury In tbo case of Frank Szczepanlak
charged with assaulting Anton Inda , re
turned a verdict ot not guilty. This Is the
second of the four cases brought against
members of ono faction ot the Polish Catho
lic church at Shceley , both having resulted
In the acquittal of the defendant.

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.
