Richard La Willard, tall, handsome

morning when a reporter of the BAZOO sp
preached him and placed questions con
corning Salt Lake City, where he recently
resided.
"Oh," said Mr.. La Willard, seating him

he occupied, at the same time becoming the

The Day and the weather

Seventy-four years ago to-day on the
27tn day of January 1875, the treaty Of
Client was signed which re-established
between Great Britain and the United
States and brought "the war of 1917" to q
close.
On the 9th day of January 1885, Gen
eral Gordon was slain at Khartoun. The
details of that massacre were but recently
published.
The weather is tickle The storm OF
yesterday bids fair to break into sunshine
in few hours. We are not likely to have
much more cold weather.

Death Of Drennon.

All lovers and admirers of good
horses will no doubt regret to learn
of the loss by death to his owners of
this famous combined saddle and har-
ness stallion. His death occurred
Wednesday of this week very sud
denly, of some breast affection. This
noted horse has been exhibited at
many of the leading fairs of the state,
including Kansas City and "the great
St. Louis fairs" always being one of
the premium horses. The death of
Drennon is quite a loss to the horse
growing interest of Pettis county.
He was not only horse of excellent
breeding, but of grand appearance
and might justly be regarded as a
magnificent specimen of the equine
race.

FIambean Club.

Forty-four members of the republican
fambeau club have pledged themselves to
60 to Washington on March 4, and it is
quite certain that over fifty will 60. Be-
sides the members, great many outsiders
have made application to accompany the
club to Washington. 1t is probable that
over hundred will 60. Our citizens are
displaying much interest in the matter
and the boys are very sanguine of success.
A business meeting of the club will be held
at the city hall Tuesday night. If the
night is favorable, street drill will take
place.

MARKETS BY TELEGRAPH


CHICAGO. March 12-Tradine in wheat
was active and the feeling again unsettled and
nervous. Local Influences governed the mar
ket and the general impression was that some
OF the large bull traders were selling out their
Nay wheat. Interest centered principally IN
May, which opened a shade weaker and. after
numerous fluctuations. declined to a point 10
below yesterdays closing, and closed $40
lower. The offerings were very heavy most Of
the day and great deal OF long wheat was un-
loaded though on the break considerable buy
ing was done on the part of shorts who sold
at the higher prices. This buying
caused occasional rallies but the feeling
was very weak. July, on the other hand,
ruled comparatively steady, and sold &C over
ana &c under yesterdays closing figures, and
closed &c below. There was good buying for
this delivery and at the same time not great
quantity offered. While operators have con-
hdence IN values for July they have not for
May at the prices current unless manipulation
would be resOrted to. The fact that there is no
support for the May futures accounts for the
drop IN prices. A moderate business was
transacted in corn. and the feeling was CON-
paratvely firm. Considering the weak tone of
wheat the activity of the other markets
withdrew interest from the Dit and
trading was local and fluctuations were con-
fined within l4(d1sc range. There was less
tiyity IN oats, but a far business transpired
within narrower range OF prices. There was
an absence OF the heavy realizing by longs that
characterized the trading yesterday. Shorts
were free buyers and a steadier feeling pre-
vailed. Considerable interest centered IN mess
pork and trading was quite active. Prices
ruled Irregular. though somewhat higher. An
advance of 30G35c was gained about the mid
die OF the session and moderately supported.
Extreme figures, however, were not fully main
tanned. Lard and short ribs sympathized
closely with pork.
The leading futures ranged as follows:
