Hogs There wero 1 H loads here today
estimated at 7,600 head, total run fur the

yesterday's market with Its extreme low

day's market Is better than yesterday's low
est time, but not as good as the high
time. Yesterday's long string was $19.60ig
19.60, today's long string will be $19.46ifti

of a drug and unevenly lower, being largely
a catch as catch can affair.

CHICAGO til BAIN AND PROVISIONS.
Com Market Given I'pward Swing by
orareity or supplies In fit,
Chicago, Sept. 13. Nearly complete dis
appearance of forn here good enough In
grade to be delivered wtlhout penalty on
September contrscta did much today to
give value an upward swing. Largely In
consequence, the close was unsettled, 1
to2 oents net higher with October $1.64
to $1.64 and November $1 52 to $1.61.
Oats gained lc. Provision finished
Unchanged to 60a higher.
Short In the corn market were plainly
nervous over the scarcity of supplies In
Chicago elevators and regarding the meager
amount of pit offerings. Th September
option especially showed oversold condi
tion, and went to a sharper premium aa
compared with October. Widespread need
of warm weather and sunshine counted to
a material extent aa an additional stimulus
toward higher prices. Bears attempted to
use the favorable war news as a factor In
forcing a decline, but the buying was too
persistent to allow success of the effort.
Instead, the market even to the last re
tained most of the day's advance.
Liberal purchasing on government ac
count had a bullish Influence In the oats
market. Besides, country offering to ar
rive war light.
Hogs at $20.85, a now high price reo
ord, gava a decided upward slant to pro
visions. Business, however, lacked volum.

Vm Tork Coffee,
New York, Sept, 11 The Issue of hew
or amended regulations by the food admin

coffee futures here today. These regula
tions provided that there could ba no trad
ing in December contract except In liquida
tion of existing commitments and also that
no deliveries could be accepted on eon
tracts except by licensed dealers. The open
ing was unchanged to 9 points lower.
A decline In tho Santos futures mar

liquidate long contracts, but the near

unchanged to 26 point lower.

tin Srhnitcher, Hungarian shoemaker,
1424 South loth street, "so I adver
tised in a New York paper and got
a wife." Anna Sinco of New York
answered the advertisement and now
she is Mrs. Martin Schnitcher. But
her cousin, Julius Hornjack, also
didnt know this; so, after waiting a
month for a letter, he wired the
Omaha polite department.
Dectecive Hayse found Mrs.
Schnitcher busily engaged with her
newly acquired household duties.
"I'm very happy," she told him,
"My husband has all the work he can
do and we get along fine. I got to
Omaha about July 22, and we were
married soon after at a Hungarian
church. I believe they call it the Lib
erty hall. I'm certainly glad I saw
that ad in the paper."
