Corn opened strong In sympathy with
wheat and on continued small recelpta.
1'here were free offerings from local spec
ulators on the advance, the opinion among
sellers being that the cold weather would
Improve the condition of the grain and alio
. Increase receipt. As a result of this sell
ing the market became easier, Lnto buy
ing on the strength In wheat caused a raily.

pathy with ths strength In other grains, but
as the session advanced an. easier tone de
veloped and closing prlcea showed slight

, Provisions were steady early In the day,
Influenced by a strong hog market, but
prices received a setback under selling of
lard by several commission houses for for
eign aocount. There was also some evi
dence of packers selling ribs. The lata
weakness In prlcea at the yards was a bear
factor during the latter part of the sei-sion.

NEW TORK. Dec. 14 Trsdlna In stocks
looay reu snarpiy below last week a aver-
ige or activity, tne day s total hardly ex
eedlng 600.0ft0 shares. The msrket. how
ever, showed well sustained strength and
closed firm at the top level of the day, or
nesr It. There was considerable early hesl-
atlon, but the aradual advance met with
new setbacks snd the occasional Intervals
of dullness, when the buying waa Inter
mittent, were innowed Dy no important re
actions. The action of the market was a
disappointment to Ihe bear element and
heir buying to cover furnlahed one of the
mnortant sustalnina Influences. In ITnited
States preferred particularly there was a
repetition of the reaction, which kept the
maraet unsettled during- the latter part or
last week and which waa believed by the
bears to herald a renewed decline. There
Is a speculative party on the market which
avowa the conviction that the recent con
siderable recovery In stocks hss simply
represented a normal reaction from the
prolonged decline, and with Its culmination
a decline 01 sun greater lores is in pros
pect. The short duration of last week's
resrtlon was In Itself a discouragement to
the followers of this opinion, and they were
Inclined to reverse their position when
prices stsrted tipwsrd sgaln.
l he more cheerful tone ot tna ixmfion
market was a helpful factor here and buy
ing orders for I-ondon account gave It a
substantial backing. London took a more
hopeful view again of the outlook for peace
In Ihe far east and the discount market
there worked easier.
Sterllna exchanse here was verv fl
with a good demand for remittance. ' But
aold -was again secured in the uonuou
market for shipment to New York to the
amount of upward or 82.ouo.nm. 1 ne an
nouncement had the usual stimulating er
feet upon the stock market. The beginning
of the argument In the Northern Securities
case at Washington seemed to have aome
early repressive effect on activity, but
traders seemed to come to the conclusion
that the possibility of a considerable delay
Still In the decision, and the extent to
which a nnsslble unfavorable decision had
already been discounted, leu it unavanaoie
for immediate runner speculative committ
ments.
The dividend on the Standard OH stock
payable tomorrow, will be the occasion for
the disbursement of 112.000,000 and a num
ber of other dividend paymenta, Including
that of the Consolidated Gas company, will
tie made at the same time. The Impression
was created that buying of stocks was going
on to some extent In anticipation or tna re-
relnta of these funds. The strengtn OI tne
market was pretty evenly diffused, but
Amaliramated Conner. Union Pacific and
Southern Paclflo were notably strong, their

Mr. Mathewa saya he waa accosted Sun

the corner of leavenworth and Eighteenth

Detective McCarthy happened to be hov

men.

The officer, feeling It hla duty to arrest
someone, took the minister In tow and had
started for a nearby drug store to call tha
patrol wagon, when Mr. Mathewa resisted
and a lively tussle between the athlatlo
minister and the minion of the law ensued.
Officer McCarthy then became more deter
mined than ever to land hla man In Jail and .
In due time the officer and the minister
showed up at the station, where Mr. Math

the Judge waa not In a receptive mood.

"It is now my plan to get the name and
number of tMeJ officer who arreated me and
bring ault for damages."
You had better reserve that talk for

of the Young Men'a Christian association.
Continuing, Mr. Mathewa remarked ao all
