IT BEHAVES WELL
WHEAT Is AIDED BY HIGHER FOR
EIGN QUOTATIONS.
Buying Orders in Plenty at the Open
ing Caused an Advance-Goes Weak
in the Middle but Closes at Best
Corn Strong Provisions Lower
Oats Unchanged.

Chicago, Dec. 15,-Wheat had a soft
spot early in the session. but it was firm
all over at the close, aided by firm cables.
Compared with the previous days closing
prices, wheat is Is cent higher, corn is up
4@H cent anu provisions are lower By
ia cents In pork; 5 cents IN lard and 10
Cents in ribs. Oats closed unchanged.
Buying orders were in the majority In
the wheat pit at the opening and could
only be filed by paying slight advance
over yesterdays closing price. The com.
parative firmness of the English and
foreign markets and the fac. that
the exports from this side went
almost entirely from American Atlantic
ports were the chief reasons for the slight
Change in speculative sentiment. The firm
ness displayed for few minutes at the
opening soon gave place TO weakness when
it WAS telegraphed from Minneapolis that
the stocks in regular elevators will show
an increase for the week of 750 900 bushels
AMI that DuiuIn stocks had increased
], 100 coo bushels. Another considerable
addition TO the visible supply was immedi
ately suggested by the above announce
ment aud on the suppositIou that all nope
OF improvement was lost and the prices
began to give way. Nav, which at the
opening brought rom 5S35 TO Is. had in the
course of half an hour declined TO 5S$S
cents. The market changed again from
weak to strong, and May rose gradually
until it Was up To $50 and around which
prics it held during The last half hour.
Closing cables were firm. The market
closed firm at the best price for the day
5S55 cents for May.
Corn was strong after weak opening.
May started with a cent decline and
closed with an advance OF 14Gsa cent. The
opening quotation was 494 c-nts, and
it rose near the close to SOL cents,
with 5l@5lI cents the final trad
ing price. The continued small
receips and generally wet weather
predicted for the country tonight aud all
day tomorrow were the chief factor in
soaring the shorts and encouraging the
longs. Business was fairly good after the
advance started. Trading was dull in
oats and fluctuations were narrow and
governed entirely 10y corn. Nav sold from
32% @?2L @321s cents and upto 3219 cents.
lat which price 1t was offered AT the close.
The trading in provisions WAS inconse-
quential. Packing 10 date was given at
!, las. 600, against 693,000 for the similar
period OF the season Il year ago.

Four Miners Closed in But Escape with.
out Injury.
Snecial 10 EVENING HERALD.

Special TO EVENING HERALD.
GILBERToN, April -Four men were en-.
tombed in the Gilberton colliery at about
three o'clock yesterday afternoon by the
running of pillar, but were rescued un-
injured at II o'clock last night.
The men were Lewis GrifIiths, miner
Mahanoy City; Herman Newhouser,
miner, Adam Wilson, laborer, and John
Sevitsky, laborer, all of Gilberton. The
last two named are Polish. Two other
men narrowly escaped being closed in.
They made their way through the fall.
The fall occurred in the top split of the
east gangway bottom lift, between
breasts 2 and 3 and was caused by the
squeezing of a pillar upon the timbers.
A hundred tons of coal fell filling up the
gangway for ten yards, or more The
discovery was first made by Patrick New
houser and Nicholas Dezinsky, who were
on their way out from work. On reach
ing breast they were much surprised to
find the gangway closed and the coal still
working and falling about them. a
draught of air attracted their attention
to passage way on top of the coal. The
men climbed up to and through this pas
sage way to the opposite side of the fall
and they hurried to notify Frank Terald,
the fire boss, who summoned the other
officials to the scene.
The officials investigated and found
that more coal had fallen and the passage
closed. They went an air hole, but this
and called to the im5ility. Twenty men
We're then put to work in the lower gang
way to timber passage, which was done
after seven hours hard work. The four
men then crawled through the passage
way to freedom and to receive the congrat-
ulations of the rescuing party that they
had not Jared worse.
No blame is attached to the oIliclal5
as only the night before they had placed
some additional timbers at this place,
which is known as a bad one, having
fallen in about two years ago.

paper to Mr. Gable with the statement
that he could not read it.
Mr.. Gable then handed the officer an
old warrant with the spaces filled with
dates and names The officer read "You
are hereby commanded to take the body
of" and then gave up. Walaitis was
allowed to retire.
The officer promptly complied with a
request to write his own name and did it
very WELL but when he attempted to write

was not so successful either in spelling
nor penmanship.

the next meeting of the Borough Council
Mr. Gable will ask the body to pass upon
the question as to whether or not Walaitis
is qualified to hold a position on the police
