CHICAGO, Feb. 14--Wheat was firmer today,
and closed at q cent gain, at 6014 cents.
Higher cables, better exports and lighter re-
ceipts caused the advance. Corn closed with
gain of u cent for May. May oats closed "A
cent higher, and provisions higher all around.
Wheat opened firm, with May IS cent
higher, at 597s cents. The Liverpool market.
with its higher quotations was responsible
for the early advance. The later cables re-
ported nothing. Firmness in Liverpool,
with forward tendencies and prices here, be-
gan an advance. The receipts for the day
were s. cars at Chicago, 13l cars at Minneapo-
lis, and is cars at Duluth.
The export ciearances from the four princi-
pal Atlantic ports were equal 10 S455,G0
bushels The bullsh effect of the early news
was such as to raise the price to 6G4 cents,
but Bradstreet's visible supply statement
changed the outlook maj eria!y, and a de-
cline to SOS cents followed. Reports that the
crop damage in England was responsible for
the advance at Liverpool, caused a reaction,
but May closed IS cent from the top figures of
the day. May opened at 593s cents, advanced
Il cent, declined 5 cent and reacted Is cent, to
the close. at 60l4 cents.
In corn there was more business transacted.
The market toward the close selling rather
quiet. A firmer feeling was displayed and
moderate gains were scored The upward

the buying by several of the larger local con-
Germs. Opening trades We're at 1saH gain,
and under fair demand and moderate offer
ings, sold up 4 cent more, eased off a cent,
ruled steady and closed with May but u cent
from the top.
There was a stronger feeling in oats with a
moderate trade. No interesting features
were developed. Fluctuations were confined
TO Il cent range, and May closed midway be
tween the top and bottom figures of the day.
A fair business was transacted early in
provisions. The opening sales were at about
yesterdays closing figures. On some sup
port from the packers, and good covering by
those who had sold short yesterday, a liberal
advance in values was scored The improve
ment continued, mainly on the stability in
wheat. Shortly before the close the offerings
increased and the support having been with
drawn, a reaction followed to a moderate ex-
tent from which there was partial recovery,
the market closing steady near the days top
figures. Compared with last night, May
pork is Is cents higher; May lard, cents
higher, and May ribs, s cents higher.
Estimated receipts for tomorrow: Wheat,
60 cars; corn, $40 cars oats, so cars: hogs,

Gold Grabbing

The advocacy of bimetallism by the
Chicago Times in straight and sound:
1t does not believe in any half way
work and is SO thoroughly converted
as to publish the following relative
to little game indnlged in by gold
bugs: -. ... 49,. F..
until silver is restored to it's pro-
per place in the money of the country.
until the United States Treasurer can
pay a silver dollar instead of a gold
dollar at his discretion, as is done in
France, where intention to export
the gold asked for is suspected, the
merry game of gold grabbing will 60
on at the sweet will of the players,
and the Government will be obliged
to issue more bonds from time to
time to purchase back from the Wall
street raiders the yellow coin yet
warm from the minting presses in
order that the fetch gold reserve may
be preserved intact"

Funeral Of o. E. Green.

The heavens opened yesterday
afternoon and rain and snow came
down from the weeping clouds but
this did not deter large number of
people from assembling at Odd
Fellows Hall at O'Clock to pay the
last sad tribnte of respect to the NOR
tai remains of Mr.. o. E. Green.
The Hall was filed with sympathizing
friends who had known, him in his
prosperity and in his adversely.
A large delegation of Elko Lodge
K. of P. headed by Mr.. J. S. Gardner
Chancellor Commaner, occupied seats
reserved for them in front of the Odd
Fellows.
The funeral services of the indie
pendent Order of Odd Fellows we're
impressively rendered by Edgar
Reinheart, N. G. of Elko Lodge No. 18,
and Rev F, S. Witter, a member of
Virginia Lodge No. 3, who officiated
as chaplain and made an eloquent
and appropriate discourse from the
text "1n the midst of life, we are in
DEATH"
A choir composed of some on Elko's
sweetest singers sang approximate
hymns and Notwithstanding the falling
rain and snow went to the cemetery
and sang @Jesns, Lover of my Soul"
during the impressiver burial service
of the Order.
At the conclusion of the services
in the Hall, aIprocession, headed b.
Elko Lodge No. Is, K. of P. followed
by Elko Lodge No, Is 1. o. o. F
preceded the hearse to the knights
cemetery where the beautiful burial
service Of the Order was performed
and all that was mortal. of one who
had lived among us for quarter of
century was laid away to wait the
Archangels trump on the morning of
the resurrection.
Though it began to storm long be-
fore the services commenced in the
Hall and kept it up until late last
evening, a numeber of people in car
riages followed the remains to the
grave and staid there until the burial
service was concluded,
The clods of the valley now rest
above the remains of o. E. Green.
May his frailties be forgotten, for who
Is without them, and his good deeds
be remembered. If you are inclined
to play critic on others lives remem
Der that you, too, must die and that
your imperfections may be. held up
to the living. His life is ended. He
died while obeying the divine injunc-
ton earn thy bread by the sweat Of
thy brow" May the good he did in
life receive its reward at the hands
Of Him Who judgeth all things
well.

There was &c declaration of war;

1861, when the Star of the West was
fred on by the South Carolina mill

when President johnson issued his
proclamation that it was over.

OF the flowers were picked by the
deceased at South Fork while at
