The proclsmatlun does not mention
questions that the governor msy submit

that the so-called "grandfather law" will

islature asked to enact a more stringent
anti-usury law.
Provisions of the "grandfather law'"
imposing qualifications for voters in this
state recently were declared unconsti
tutional by the supreme court of the

CHICAGO GRAIN AND PROVISIONS
Featoree of the TradlaaT mm Cloelnc
Prices oa Hoard of Trade.
CHICAGO, Jan. 7. Increasing receipts
and the growing difficulties of shippers
had a bearish effect today on wheat.
The result was a henvy close, at lVifi'lNc
net decline, with May at $1.25V1.2r.H
snd July 81.17V Other leading staples,
loo. sll showed a setback; corn, c to Vc;
oats, lc to and provisions, 2ic to Uo.
It waa a nervoua and Irregular market
In wheal, but moat of the Ume, and es
pecially in the last hour, the changes
were down grsde. The temporary rallies
were based In the main on what provm
to be Illusive hopes of a generous export
business. An advance In vessel rates
from Argentina gave some further traiw
slant encouragement to the bulls, and so
alsu did reports that the movement from
Australia during January and February
would be light.
Gradually, however, the bears acquired
the advantage, for Europeans were said
to be offering to recall at a substantial
reduction In prices, and there was word
of a decided Increase in the stock pile
at Minneapolis. Much addlUonal signifi
cance in regard to the accumulation of
supplies seemed apparent when announce.
mrnt was made later that arrivals aH
primary points totaled nearly twice tej
amount of a year ago, whereas sh
ments displayed a material falling off.
Depression In the wheat market grew
more pronounced on account of shipping
contracts here being made enforclblej
only as soon ss the railway embargo at
the east is removed. Even on that basis,
not more than 17u,nnn bushels was dis
posed of. snd the aggregate of the day'w
export business for the whole United
Htstes waa estimated as not surpassing
at the most 500.000 bushels.
Corn gave way with wheat, despite
some sales to Europe, and notwithstand
ing new high record quotations at Llver
7ool. Receipts here wss Increasing, but
very slowly. Oats reflected the action
of com. Selling preasure though was
not much In evidence.
Provisions sagged because of the down
turns In the hog market, and In grain,
packers were on the selling aide,
provisiona. The msrket wss fairly well
auatslned, however, by speculative de
mand. In later transactions the market ruled
eaay, yt line with hogs. It was said that
scarcity of feed was causing the sacrifice
of live stock to an unusual extent.

Cotton Market.
NTUW YORK, Jan. 7. COFFEE The
market for oof fee futures was higher
again today on a broadening demand
from Wall afreet and cotton trade sources
which seemed to bsve been Inspired by
the recent advance in freight rates from
Brasll to New York and apprehensions
of Increased dl f leu 1 ties of Importation.
The market had a comparatively quiet
opening and at first prices were only
4 or $ points higher, fcut buying became
more active during the middle of the
dsy and active months sold 1725 points
above last niybt's closing fix urea with
July touching 7.26e and October 7.60c.
Tha close was within a point or so of
the best st a net gain of lfca2( points.

seemed rather iregulsr and unsettled,
led owing pertly to delsy In receiving
firm offers It wss reported thst there
had been a smal ssle of Santos 4s at 8 90c,
but it waa thought that this might have
ben an old offering, and later offeree
were quoted at about 9.0ivfr9.3rt feaaed on

there were no official cables from Brs

Earlv advices from other markets were.
If anything, of a slightly discouraging
nature. In spite of this, and the fact thst
receipts were so heavy, shippers started
out early buying evervthinar thst suited
them, readily, at a VrflOc advance. Most
of their purchases ranged at $6. 754. 35,
the latter price being the day's top.
Packers made their opening bids at
prices that were no more than stesdy,
and actually succeeded In buying a few
hogs that did not look to be much higher
than yesterday. Most traders were ask
ing ss much aa 10c higher figures, how
ever, snd with shipper furnishing such
ken comrM,iloM nicker araln were
forced to fall Into line, and !n the end

best stuff, and trade naturally opened
out pretty dnlL Iter on things firmed
up. and while trade waa a Utile rirasgy
all the way through H turned out fairly
satisfactorily, the liberal Friday nm

Death Comes to
George Crossley
His desire to attend the funeral of Gen
eral Dodge was the means of causing
a seoona tragedv In the family of Oenrge
W. Crossley, whose sou, Trof. Bruce
crossley, was killed a year ago when
caught In the flywheel or an engine on
the 1,000-arre farm seven miles from
Council Bluffs.
Air. crossley csme to Council Bluffs
late Wednesday afternoon and stopped
at-the Kiel hotel. He was found uncon
scious In his room late Thursday morn
ing with the room filled with Illuminating
gas that had escaped from a burner. He
died Friday evening without having re
Sained consciousness.
Dr. A. V. Hennessey was called and
after his serious condition wss noted Mr.
Crossley wss hurried to Mercy hospital.
Mr. Crossley retired early In the even
ing, complaining of feeling tired and ill.
There were no calls from the room dur
ing the night, and the presence of the
gas was not detected until after o'clock
yesterday morning. The transom was
open and employes of tho hotel quickly
traced the escaping gas to the room oc
cupied by Mr. Crossley. When the door
wss forced he was found lying on the
bed In his night rotes and entirely uncon
scious. The gss jet In the room was
found to be ,artly open and the escaiw
of the vapor nad been very slow.
It Is bell. vt.cl thst Ms-. Crossley arose
during- the nlht snd had lighted the gas,
and when he had turned It off had acci
dentally struck ths vslve In withdrawing
his hand. Mr. Crossley had been In poor
health for several years, and It waa owing
to this fact that his talented son resigned
his position In the faculty of the Ames
Agricultural college and devoted his time
to the management of the big farm. The
father was terribly shocked when his son
received his fatal Injuries. Ha had been
greatly depressed since. He had always
been a great admirer of General Dodge
and despite his feeble health Insisted upon
coming here to attend the funeral, Jdr.
Oossley was about 70 years old.
