Syracuse Man Arrested
for "Rustling" Saddle
If horse rustling is a thing of the
past saddle stealing, as the next
best thing, is still lucrative and not
as dangerous, was substantially what
George Edward Bronson, of Syra
cuse, Neb., charged with stealing a
saddle from a fanner four miles
north of Plattsmouth, told the po
lice today.
Bronson's attempt to sell a val
uable saddle to Lorig's pawnshop
for $10 aroused the suspicion of De
tectives Heller and Francl. who were
watching him. They took him into
custody and he admitted stealing
the saddle.
Police believe that Bronson has
been : engaged in "rustling" auto
mobiles. When arrested he had in
his possession two large pliers and
a flashlight.
Lack of Witnesses Causes
Postponement of Hearing
Ten days have proved insuffi
cient for the county attorney and
the South Side police court officials
to gather state witnesses in the pre
liminary hearing of Jacob Kobielak
and John Petroski, charged with
manslaughter in connection with the
death of A. Socha. The hearing
was postponed for the third time
Saturday morning because there
were no state witnesses present.
Sunday morning of last week
Socha succumbed to the injuries he
received when his body was inflated
with compressed air from an air
pump on the canning floor of the
Cudahy Packing company. His two
fellow workmen. Tetroski and Kobi
elak, are charged with having unin
tentionally caused his death.

Market and
GRAIN MARKET
Grain receipts were fairly liberal though
some lighter than last Saturday. Arrivals
were 10 cara of wheat, 76 cars of corn,
32 cars of oats, 12 cars of rye and six
cars of barley. Corn prices ranged from
2 to 6 cents higher, the extreme advance
being obtained for choice white grades. A
strong demand from millers for this kind
for' making corn flour to export was In
evidence. All offerings sold readily. Oats
were lc advance, the bulk a cent up.
Rye was unchanged and barley some
higher. Wheat was firm.

Chicago Grain and Provisions.
Chicago, April 6. Notwithstanding that
for distant deliveries corn today touched
the highest prices yet this season, weak
ness prevailed In the market as a whole
by reason of Increased offerings to arrive
from the country. Quotations closed
heavy, c to 2c net lower, with May
tl.B64&1.56 and July, $1.48i 1.48.
Oats lost io to lc. In provisions the
outcome ranged from 10c decline to 40c
advance.
Selling pressure on corn seemed to be
directed chiefly against the May deliv
ery. The later months, too, suffered from
liquidation but not until the May-July dif
ference had become 3c narrower than was
the case earlier In the week. Cash houses
led the selling of May. One of their rep
resentatives said he could not find a man
who was sending any bids out to rural
holders that buyers were filled up and
did not care to accumulate much of a
stock at -current premiums. Renewed
advices that labor difficulties at Buenos
Aires were again threatening to curtail
Argentine exports had only a transient
bullish effect.
Oals followed corn. For the most part
trade was. local.
Provisions averaged higher with hogs.
Prices for the live animals overtopped all
records since September.

New York Coffee.
New York, April B. The market for
coffee futures showed a reactionary ten
dency today. The demand for near
months which had been a factor on the
advance of yesterday, was less in evidence,
and prices eased under scattered realizing
or liquidation, although there seemed to
be no change of importance in the news
from Brazil, and. there was some scat
tered buying on the more optimistic view
of peace prospects. The only sale reported
in July was at 14.90c, or even with last
night's closing price, but that delivery
closed at 14.80c bid, while December sold
off to 14.05c, or ten points net lower. The
market opened 7 to 11 points lower and
closed at a net decline of 3 to 10 points

FINANCIAL
New York, April 6 At the outset of
today's short but active session of the
stock market Imllratlons pointed to a fur
ther advance of the general list under the
guidance of rails, but profit-taking In
that quarter, also among oils and re
newed pressure upon steels created an
irregular tone at the close.
Consistent features of strength embraced
American International, which retained
the greater rart of It, 4-point advance:
also Atlantic Gulf and United Fruit. Har
vester, Runtety common and preferred,
American Sugar, Hide and Leather pre
ferred, Wilson Parking and severs! of
the motor specialties and low-priced pe
troleums, especially Pierce Oil.
Southern Faciflc. the feature of yester
day's demonstration among rails, failed
to make more than fractional Improve
ment at any time and reacted 2 points
when offerings exceeded demand. Read
ing and other coal shares also yielded
their moderste gains.
Mixed conditions In the stock market
reflected the character of advices from
Washington and abroad, the heaviness
of United States Steel being ascribed to
uncertainty regarding the outcome of the
Impending conference with the war indus
trial board.
The bank statement disclosed another
large actual construction of loans, a total
of abcut $87,000,000 In two weeks, but last
week's decreases of actual reserves was
replaced by a substantial Increase.
Foreign bonds yielded slightly, but Lib
erty Issues and standard rails and indus
trials were steady. Total sales (par val
ue) aggregated $6,775,000.
Old V. S. bonds were unchanged on call
during the week.

French Girl, Hero's
Daughter, Educated
by Yankee Officers
Taris, April 5. In France, where
charitable institutiora are scarcer
than in the United States, it fre
quently happens that people be
queath money for charitable pur
poses to the French Academy, which
is a literary organization founded by
Louis XIV, of 40 members who are
supposed to be immortal.
As a matter of fact some of them
are not widely known while stilt
alive, but as a body the Academy
has a reputation for stability, re
spectability and financial solidity, ft
reputation that might be envied by a
trust company.
There are several hundred liter
ary prizes to be regularly distributed.
Some of them are so small that in
these days of high prices it is al
most insulting to receive them and
'since the Academy started the cus
tom of splitting them up, some
shares do not even pay a respect
able restaurant bill. A while ago a
disappointed writer asked when the
Academy would begin to crown lit
erary works with a dollar reward.
Among the charitable bequests
which the worthy literary gentlemen
(Marshals Joffre and Foch are
among them, and Georges Clemen
ceau has been elected, after having
mocked the Academy all bis life)
have to administer and distribute are
many unusual ones. One of the re
cent bequests was a fund of 12,000
francs ($2,400') which a group of
American artillery officers at the
Camp de Mailly, in Champagne, had
collected and donated for the educa
tion of the daughter of a French
man killed at the front, preferably a
girl born near Camp de Mailly.
The beneficiary is to carry the in
signia of the American naval artil
lery, two crossed cannon, as f sou
venir of her benefactors. If there is
j any money left when she is grown
up she is to have it as a dot. it is
such gifts that will best commemo
rate the American Expeditionary
Force in France.
