The Grain Blockade. 4.

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Oct. 2s.-Reports
from the various grain markets and
transfer stations from Kansas City to
the Atlantic eaboard indicate that the
present grain blockade is one of the
most extensive in the history of the
business and it would seem that there
is but little prospect of immediate re-
lief. Cars loaded with grain are re-
ported standing in hundreds and thou
sands on side tracks at every point offer
ing opportunities for the accumulation
of grain. The elevators are full and
their owners have given notice that no
more grain can be taken until the pres
ent gorge has been relieved
1t is a peculiar fact, but no less a fact,
that among all the receiving and ship
ping ports of the country Kansas City
alone yet offers facilities for the stOr-
age of grain. Her elevators are not yet
filled and grain men say that it will
take several hundred thousand bushels
to make them throw up their hands.

CHEEKY WILL DALTON.

He Threatens to Sue the City of ConeyvIlIe
For Damages-Emmet Dalton VIII Re-
cover-The Homage of Foolish Women.
CoFFEYvILLE, Kan, Oct. ga new
feature in the Dalton affair is promised,
and most unique one it is. Will Dali
ton is contemplating suing the city for
damages, alleging as a cause of action
that while the bodies of the dead ban
dts were in charge of the city unau-
thorized persons were allowed to rife
the pockets and abstract money and
valuables, which have not been turned
over to William or the family.
VIII was interviewed in regard to the
matter and acknowledged that there
was u strong probability of such an ac-
ton being begun, claiming. however,
that one of the ablest attorneys in the
state was backing and instigating the
suit on contingent fee.
Will said that he knows one of the
citizens robbed the bodies of the 5000
/ which Emmett claims they had before
coming into Coffeyville. This is in all
proba ability the sheerest nonsense, as
no one else seems to know anything
about it. The chances are that it is
only bluff game, played in order to
force those who took the articles from
the bandits pockets and are keeping
them as relics to return them.
Emmett is still improving and will IN
doubtedly recover. His cell is bright
ened by bouquets of beautiful flowers
sent him by foolish women and he is
having what many people think an
easy time when it is considered that
three widows and one poor old mother
mourn their husbands and son by reason
of the Dalton raid. William declares
that there will be no danger of Emmet's
conviction and that there will be plenty
of money for his defense is certain.

BASKING In THE SUN.

The love of sunshine is naturally one Of
our strongest instincts and we should be
far better and healthier if we took more of
it. All of these things should be enjoyed
in moderation. Even walking, if the exer-
else is carried to the point of fatigue, is
hurtful TO the invalid. 1t takes the rarest
common sense TO tell just what the sick
should do and should not do in order to
obtain the best results and the least injury
from these things. This is certain, that
the first thing that the sick must attend to
is to see that the digestion is in perfect
order. When this is not the case the evil
may be remedied by taking the Laxative
Gum Drop. These gum drops are the best
things in the world for people with weak
stomachs for the reason that they contain
nothing deleterious and they can be given
to the most delicate child without injuring
it in the least. These gum drops are put
up in two sizes. The small size costs ten
cents the large size twenty-five cents. Get
them of any dealer.

NO PRICE FOR WHEAT.

4 sag of Three Cents within Week-Eu-
ropeau Demand Almost Nil.
KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Oct. 29-The
wheat market dropped more than cent
a, bushel to-day, making a decline of
more than three cents in the past week
The market has been sagging for a long
time under the influence Of the extra
ordinary shipments from the country.
All markets have become blocked, and
to add to the difficulty ocean freight rates
20 Europe have been advanced nearly 100
per cent in the past few days, making
it more difficult than ever to get the
grain out of the country. There has
been very large holding of wheat in
Chicago for December delivery which
was bought several weeks ago and has
been the chief cause of the stubborn
resistance to decline which the mar
ket has until recently shown In the
past few days, this 'slong'' wheat has
been for sale and that has added to the
weakness of the market.
October wheat in Chicago closed to-
day at 6915 cents, which is the lowest
price in record of twenty-eight years.
with two exceptions. In October, 1886,
the price reached 695s cents and in De-
cember, 1897, wheat sold in Chicago at
fifi q cents

CHICAGO, Oct 26.-This country is not

in this direction was made in the meet
ing of the worlds fair commission when
Commissioner Bullene, of Missouri, pre-
scented resolution requesting congress
to take the necessary steps to secure
the change of name from America to
Columbia.
The mover of the resolution made q
clever speech in its support, deriding
the claims of Vespucci to the credit of
discovering the continent and demand
ing that Column bus receive the honor of
giving his name to this country. Com
missioner Cochrane, of Texas, made a
strong, though possibly somewhat
spread-eagle speech against taking
away the proud privilege of calling
ones self an American citizen and
without further debate the resolution
was laid on the table, 43 to Z.

THE FUNERAL.
Solemn Rites Over the Remains of Mrs.

For Indianapolis.


Solemn Rites Over the Remains of Mrs.
Harrison at the White Eouse-Departure
For Indianapolis.
WASHINGTON, Oct 27.-An that re-
NAMED of the once gracious and be
loved mistress of the White house and
first lady of the land, Mrs Benjamin
Harrison, left Washington forever yes
terday and shortly before II o'clock
the funeral train started on its last sad
journey to the old home, Indianapolis,
from whence the now departed had
come less than four years ago in the
full pride of yomanhood and in perfect
health.
Services for the dead were held in the
east room of the White house before
| the family and the presidents cabinet
| members as well as the chosen friends
| of the departed. They were beautiful
and impressive, but were chiefly char
acterized by the simplicity which was
SO dear to her heart Except the sable
rosette of Grape at the door there was
| no sign of mourning about the exterior
| of the mansion.
AS the clock in the hall struck 10
o'clock the honorary pail bearers
entered the east room and were seated.
They walked slowly in the following
order: Vice President Morton and Sec
| rotary j. w. Foster, Secretery Elkins
and Attorney General Miller, Postmas-
| ter General Wanamaker and Secretary
Tracy, and Secretary Noble and Secre-
, tary Rusk.
| Then followed t;le president and
members of the family.
/ When the family were seated Rev.
DR.. Hamlin, the presidents pastor, adj
Il 1Orrr &o1
| few passages from the Scriptures be-
ginning ''In my Fathers house. and
| included several verses from Psalms
He closed with the Lords prayer,
which was repeated after him by al
most every person in the room.
Then Rev DIR. Bartlett of the New
! York Avenue Presbyterian church, who
! was formerly a friend Of the family at
indianapolis, took up the Scriptures
and read number of passages from
the Old and New Testaments.
The low prelude of the organ was
| then heard and the swelling voices OF
the choir chanted the hymn, 81 Hear
the Voice of Jesus Say AS the hymn
proceeded the clouds that had shut out
| the sun hoated away and the room was
flooded with bright sun light
LET us pray" said DIR. Bartlett, and
the assemblage joined in prayer. As
the pastor said amen the choir was
heard singing Cardinal Newman's beau
tiful hymn, LEAD, Kindly Light. ~
This closed the services
The body was at once removed from
| the hearse to the compartment car
''Elroy," and placed in hand
some red cedar case with pol
ished brass handles. After the lid was
put in place the wreaths and other
floral offerings which covered the casket
in the east room were again laid upon
the case, completely burying it from
sight Around the sides of the case on
the floor, the remaining flowers were
placed and strewn in profusion.
One hour later the train containing
the body of Mrs. Harrison, the presi-
dent and family, members of the cabi-
net and other distinguished persons
left the depot for indianapolis where
the last sad rites will take and all that
| is mortal of the mistress of the White
| house will be laid to rest
