TO the Editor Of the BULLETIN,
Will you please allow me space for a
few words in your paper.
In last evenings Caro- Luminiry, the
editor Of which, Notwithstanding his en-
Ormous skull, Is brainless, and without
either gentlemanly qualities or instincts,
attempts to make the readers OF his six
by nine sheet believe that l, as Mayor OF
OF the city. gave to Que MIR. johnson a
license to ply a '.little game OF gam
bling" Whoever gave the editor Of the
Sun such information, (and doubt
whether any one told him the story l
pronounce malicious falsifier. There
u not one word Of truth IN the story.
Ever since have been mayor | have
tried, and believe | have succeeded Ia
breaking up gambling OF every kind.
Not only this, but the editor OF the !Sun
knows, II he knows anything, that the
mayor has not the power TO grant license
10 any person to ply any avOcation.
Respectfully.

False, All Of IL.

The San OF last evening contains the
following:
"The BULLETIN this morning tells how
MIR. johnson was fined by Judge Bross
for 'setting up a lottery" but fails 10
tell that he was "pulled" by Sheriff Saup
under the State law, as Mr.. johnson, so
| we hear, had license IRON the Mayor
of this city to ply his little game. We
hope the sheriff will do SO again, and
that his honor will not license such
games again. and that our nelghbor will
do the sheriff justice, II he did not vote
for him."
The S'M misrepresents Mayor Winter
In this matter. johnson did not haye a
license from the mayor, nor did he claim
to have any license at all. On the con"
trary, johnson stated that Mayor Winter
had informed him that he had no power
to grant licenses to any person or for any
purpose; aid warned him that if his busi>
ness could in any sense he construed to
be u game of chance, he would be liable
under the law. We deem it simple JUS
tice to Mayor Winter to make
this statement. SO far as the BULLETIN
and Sheriff Saup are concerned, the Sun
Is at liberty to indulge in all the cheap
chanlt chooses to. Sheriff Saup under.
stands perfectly well that we did not
vote for him, and he knows that under
like circumstances, should occasion pre-.
sent itself, we would vote, and not only
vote, but work against him again. How
ever, we regard Sheriff Saup as clever
gentleman and active and efficient officer,
and believe the Sun attaches more inn
pOrtaIce to this matter than the sheriff
does.

THE MARKETS.
WEEKLY GRAIN REVIEW.

We are indebted to Messrs. Powers,
Lyndc Il Co., of Kansas City, for the follow
Ing reliable review of the grain trade:
wheat-The confident feeling that has
distinguished our wheat market for the
past few weeks has been fully sustainedfor
most of the week under review, though n
weaker feeling now prevails, In sympathy
with foreign and eastern markets, caused
to some extent by holders selling to realize
handsome profit offered them. many OF our
eastern shippers having but little conil-
dencc in the prolonged duration of the war.
To us, we sec but little hope for its speedy
termination. and there is nothing In news
at hand to encourage the belief In Il speedy
cessation of hostilities or of IN armistice.
Wheat in sight has increased l,45l ,762
bushels as compared with last week.
Corn-The weather for the week past has
been most favorable for this cereal.
The prospects for large receipts, together
with lower tone of eastern and foreign mar
kets have caused sharp decline in values
Spectators seem to have very little con
fldence in high prices. the feeling being de-
cidedly "feverish.
Rye-Has ruled comparatively quiet, ant
values remain unchanged. The deliveries
at seabOard ports for the week were 1885
bushels against ,069 bushels the previous
week. and "a S65 bushels the corresponding
week in 1876,
Oats-Trading was fuirly active early Ii
the week. and tho trade evinced a disposi.
ton to purchase quite freely; but during
the latter part there has been very little
trading. the large arrivals at upper LAX,
ports seeming to intimate buyers.
Freights-No change in Rail or LAKE
