CHICAGO GRAIN AND PROVISIONS
Fentnre of the Trndlnic nnd Closlntf
Prices on Ilonrd of Trnde.
CHICAGO, Jan. 11. Today's price for
grain, after the bullish debauch of the
two previous sessions, declined moder
ately today, as did provisions. Fluctua
tions were rather narrow and the volume
of business moderate.
A heavy snowfall In Kansas preceding
the cold weather which haa been Pre
dicted and the prospect of large ship
ments from Argentina were bear factors
n wheat. The fact that shorts had pretty
well eliminated themselves during the pre
vious two days also worked against
prices. At the close May was He over
Ihe bottom, but ttS'Uo under yestorday.
Corn opened sharply higher, but It soon
developed that this wan due to bidding
by scattered belated shorts, who missed
the bull band wagon yestorday. On tno
jnodest decline which ensued considerable
torn was worked for export, lending a
firm undertone to the mnrket. Shippers
are finding difficulty in meeting the de
mands of export buyers for early ship
bient, owing to tho non-consummation
of earlier Bales.
Trade In oats was chiefly of an even-big-up
character typical of week-end ses
sions. May closed 'Ac down.
Provisions declined In sympathy with
bogs, meeting a good demand at the lower
level. Final quotations were 7Vi12ttc un..
ler yesterday, but at the top for the day.

week tho market Is about where It was at
the closo of last week.

Stockors and feeders broko a little lit
the beginning of the week on account of

which means they are at the highest

HOGS Packers this morning again
demonstrated their ability to put prices
wherever they plenso when tluiy nil hap
pen to bu of the samo mind at the same
time. Receipts at most points were light,
provisions yesterday closed alxiut steady,
and general conditions looked favorablo
for tint selling Interests, Packers, how
ever, could see only one thing and that
was tho expectation of largo receipts ut
Chicago uaxt week. Thay started the
break at Chicago which was reported 10
JH5o lower early and a little later 15c
lower. From Chicago the break spread
to the river markets nnd this market
suffered uloug with all the others.
Buyers ut this point started out right
at the beginning bidding prices fully 10
16c lower thun yesterday. In fact largely
ISO lower. Sellers naturally protested
against such a heavy reduction and did
their best to maintain the market but In
tho face of tho big slump at other points
they were unuble to do so. Tho mnrket
did not Improve any, hut closed weak and
at tho low point of the day. When sell
ers once began to cut loose the hogs
moved quite freely and tho greater part
of the receipts changed hands In fulr sea
son. As will bo noted from tho sales n
considerable propottlon of the hogs sold
at J7.0WJ7-15 with some choice heavy bogs
as high as J7.30. tho latter having sold
early to speculators.
A train of twenty-three cars that came
In about mid-day and after tho curly re
ceipts had practically all been disposed
of met with a still weaker market, tho
trade being slow and around 20o lower
than yesterday.
For tho week receipts foot up 52.479
head tho heaviest since four weeks ago
but 16,000 head smaller than for the same
weck a year ago. On Thursday and Fri
day the market mude some little advance
but the break today wiped It all out and
more too. the week closing about 6c lower
than last week.

COCKSURE ORATOR IN ACTION
Vlllnae I'ntrtnreh In mi til Itesciied
frimi tli WliidJninniliiH
Clna.
"I felt son y for young Kelterninti last
night," remnrked the school superintend
ent. He got tip to make nil oration at
our literary society meeting and he win
so scared that he couldn't utter a word.
Ho has real ability as a rpenker and I
know he devoted much thought to his
oration nnd hoped to win npplnusc. nnd
his humiliation was great."
"It's the best thing that could have hap
pened to him. however." sold tho village
patriarch. "In after years, when he re
alizes how lifeless oratory Is nnd how
superfluous orators are. he'll thank his
pnrtlculnr gods that lie broke dowr and
made a show of himself; for I take It fur I
gtnlited that he will profit by Ms experi
ence and moke up his mind to do some
thing useful.
"It's a cutlotis thing thnt every man,
nt some period of his career, has nn mil
hltlnn to make speeches, He may have a
voice that sounds like a rusty windmill;
he may ho a confirmed stammerer lie
may lack the prenmco which Is necessary
to a successful speaker; ho may have
reason to bellovo that his 'knees will give
way under him when he faces an audi
ence; none of these things will swervo
him from his deadly purpose when tho
Infatuation Is upon him. Wore It not for
such disasters as befell Keltermnn nil
men would bo sllver-longuod orators,
making a few timely remarks upon every
possible occasion, and thero would bo no
body to dig potatoes und bring cordwood
to town. 1
"I admire and marvel at tho wisdom of
Providence, which has decreed that only
a. certain perccntngo of tho population
shall bo boy orators. It Is truo that the
porccntngo I unduly large, but wo should
ho thankful for such hlctwlngs as wo
POSSCBS.
"t remember when 1 became afflicted
with tho deslro to nuike speeches. It whs
ninny and ninny a year ago when I still
entertained tho Idea thnt I'd he president
of tho United Stnten some day. 1 nlwuys
had tho gift of tongues. I could stand In
front of my feed store and arguo down
any pedestrian who came along. I was
preposterously young then und thought
nil things were possible. Garfield and
Hancock were running for tho presidency
then and I championed tho cause of tho
former. I'm afraid I neglected my hay
business in order to convlnco passers-by
that their mnnlfest duty was to vnto for
the Ohio man. I hoped to bo appointed
postmaster If ho was elected,, nnd from
that I'd rise gradually through tho state
legislature and the nutlonnl congress to
the White House.
"Well, they ran short of speakers
towurd the closo of Clio campaign nnd I
had made such n reputation as a catcli-as-catch-enn
debater on tho sidewalk that,
I was asked to oddress a meeting In the
town hall. The Idea of declining never
occurred to mo. I had conflilenco to burn
In thoao days, and, moreover. I was
fairly loaded to tho guards with facts
which would bo ot great benefit to the
people when I got them out of my sys
tom. I prepared my speech carefully and
never experienced tho slightest qualm
until I stepped upon tho platform and
faced the thousand fiends In human form
who hud assembled thorn to hear inc.
"My friends, it Is one thing1 to stand In
front of your own liny bazaar expounding
the constitution of tho United Status und
nuothrr to loom up before a mulltudo of
mnle and female patriots. I felt like nn
ox led to tho slaugliter. I couldn't think
of a word of my discourse. AH 1 could
remember was that my trousers bngged
at the knees and that two huttons were
off my vcf.t. I stood there gulping and
mouthing In the most pitiful wny.
"There wero many Hancock partisans
prefnnt and thoy liad equipped themselves
with largo overripe cucumbers. There
should be a law against cucumber ns a
substitute for bouquets. Heads of cab
bage nnd dead cats are bad enough, but
you can dodge tlieni, as they take 11
straight course when thrown. But cu
uumbers net like Australian boomerangs.
They circle around In such a way that
you can't tell where they arc going to
land until they break against your fore
head or your bosom. At least fifteen of
them mutt have hit mo as I stood there
and nothing mote sickening could be
Imagined than the squashing sound they
made.
"When 1 loft the stage I was dripping
cucumber and for weeks I found their
seeds In my whiskers. It wns a painful
experience, and on the following day I
whipped three men 1 suspected of throw
ing tho fruit, but In later years I realized
that tho rebuke I received that night

The movement to make a wool market
In Omaha culminated In IMS by the erce
Hon of a storage warehouse, which In the
lhc years has handled over 5,000,01 pounds
of woof.
"Tliero iifver was any wool handled m

We are still In tho gnme nnd making

The estimated amount of wool In the
United States Is about f0.OQ0.000 pounds

we do know Is that there is a shortage
of wool and hope to seo prices regulated

can all flgurn Intelligently. In soliciting
business we offer to ndvnnce from S to S
cents per pound where the wool is free
from any mortgage, under our form of

"Omaha is already doing business as a
wool market, and the market by con

BOOKS DE LUXE SWINDLES
Sntu 'rnnl Volumes nt Four
J'laurr Prices Unlonileil In
IVetv England.
Why should any swindler go to th
trouble und expense of raltlnt a. gold tnlrm
when It Is possible to persuade slmpie
mlnded persons to subscribe to onywher
from J5,000 to JIOO.OOO worth of literary
Junk'.' Tho post office Inspectors ore aim
ing upon some amuztng revelations us ti
tho extont of tho "edition de luxo" swin
dle In Now Ehglund. In New Hampshire
iilono one woman has Invested JS7.000, and
two others J4O.00O each; the value of the
Investment Is precisely what might be
expected.
Why do people of means fall Into this
trap? in 11 few cases Uielr motives at
least command sympathy, s when the
widow of n distinguished man Is led to
pay extravagantly for a book which she U
assured will pcrpctuato his memory. Such
n swindle Is particularly despicable, and
tho victim can he charged with nothing
worse than Ignorance nnd Inok of pru
dence and of the common sense whlcn
would suggest taking the advice of other)
It Is rather different with the greedy In
vestors who arc worked upon by the
assuranco that tho work Is one which J
Plerpont Morgan Is trying to get; nn
unsophisticated purchaser who thinks lie,
Is getting tho better of Mr. Morgan Is
bringing Ids own fate upon him. and
while friends may sympathize they will
secretly smile. Tho public will irmlU,
but less secretly.
These swindlers nerd aBharp les-ion.
and It Is to ho hoped that a few prosecu
tions will put an cms to this flagrant
form of a bad business., Yet It Is not very
eaay to draw the lino between the plain
swindle, and the exploitation of costly
books of little real value from which
Well-to-do Americans havo lost much.
The law can only reach 'coses of actual
misrepresentation, but the public needs
to bo warned quite 11s Jlnuch against
fiaudn for which there Is no legal redress.
The wholesale purchase of costly edi
tions Is rtot a very satisfactory form of
display. If it gratifies their owner to
think thnt if ho should tako It Into his
head to read a book he would have It la
a form which few could .afford, lie Is per
hnps getting the worth of his Investment,
though tho edgo of his satisfaction may
be dulled when he sees how little people
who really caro for books appreciate htt
morocco and gilt. Such wholesale splen
dors appeal no more to collectors tnan to
readers. The reader likes a comfortable
Inviting page, tho collector has a fastld'
Iouh sense of values which would mak
him give a whole library of gilt edition,
of Balzac, Paul do Kock and Boccaccio
for a lnglo thin shabby little book cf
real distinction.
Rich people might do much worse than
to spend their money for books and pic
tures. If they nre swindled now and th?n
they ought not to be cast down, but
count It us part of their education. If
they buy only what they really want and
can appreciate) they will not be let In
vory badly. If a picture gives pleasure
It Is worth what one can afford to pay
for it, whether genuine or falsely labeled
nut no one Is likely to pay J40.00O or
J60.000 for the personal pleasure to be
derived from a handsomely got-tip edition
Ha may pay extravagantly for a book
that Is to Include a fulsome biography
of himself and he Is the best Judjre, of
what such bought eulogy Is worth. But if
ho is Investing thousands of dollars In a
sumptuous book under the Impression
that he Is getting something raro and
valuable, he ought to take the advice
of those who know more about It than, he
does. It 1h not exculpating tho swindlers
to say that many of tho victim have
tliemiolves to blame; the slightest pre
caution would have savinl them from
being cheated. Springfield (Mass.) Re
