changed. Wheat opened about q half cent
lower. then followed q IS 0s4c advance. but
again became weaker and prices declined

and lower opening was somewhat due to
the break in railroad stocks. together with
dull and easier cables. There WIS good
buying at the decline. Duluth sending in
some buying orders. and st. Louis also
bought. the latter buying on the strength
of export demand for winter wheat on
French account. AS soon IS the buying
ceased the market eased off under free
offerings. Russian crop news was more
favorable through some sources. and bad
through others.
Corn az the start was weaker, and the
opening trades were at Ao decline. Then
steadier tone was manifested. but the
market again ruled weaker and at the
close had lost ~ a ESQ. Tho receipts to-day
were considerably In excess of the predic-

mated.
The feature of the oats market was sell
ing of May and June by shippers who
bought cash lots. The close was easy at In
side prices. with a net loss of l9c.
There was but one feature to the provis-
ion trade. The hogs were short at 1880.
and gave the market a little bulge ut the
opening. On this bulge Wright began sell

Third ward OF Cheyenne. last autumn. out
OF 1sS who were present at least eighty were
women. In the other wards the proportion
OF women was as one is TO three. On cleo
ton days the women 20 a-voting precisely
as they go a-shoppIng elsew here. On foot
or In their carriages they go To the polls,
where. under the law. there are no crowds
and where oil Is quiet and orderly. There
10 no doubt that female suffrage has an i'm
proving effect upon politicians and their
manners. All sortsand every sort of women
vote; but II IS to be remarked that this af-
fords no criterion for larger and Eastern
States. since the proportion of women of
evil lives lie very email in Wyoming. even
In the cities. and. SO far rs other women are
concerned. our new States are nearer like
democracies than our old ones. The lines
OF caste are more apt TO be noticed by their
absence than by their enforcement.
