CHICAGO MARKET
Wheat Goes Higher Than 1t Has Before for a
Month

Wheat Goes Higher Than 1t Has Before for
Month
Chicago. Feb. 27.-Wheat opened steady and
about unchanged. The arrival Of two cargoes
OF VIII at at New York from Portland, Or,
caused some temporary weakness. but other
items OF the early news of an opposite char
acter gave the price sharp upward turn.
Cablegrams from Paris reported that the mar
ket was firm and advancing and the weather
continuing unfavorable Liverpool wired that
the market there was strong because of
demand from France for of-coast cargoes, and
the effect OF that here was to raise the price OF
May rapidly from 537s to 545s, the latter being
q higher rate than has been reached before for
month.
The first trading was at from $1,000, the
effect oi the French cables quickly neutralized
when New York dispatches arrived saying that
the receivers OF the bulish dispatches from
France were sellers OF wheat in New York
There were reports from country points in
Missouri and Illinois enough to check the
bullish enthusiasm. as they described the ap-
pearance of the wheat plant as it emerged
from beneath the snow as being uninjured and
healthy. reaction to 54c followed the lat
ter news. Receipts at Minneapolis and Duluth
were $50 cars against 420 week ago. and 269
on the corresponding days OF the year before
Primary market receipts all told, were 479,-
900 bushels; the export clearances of wheat
and flour from Atlantic ports amounted to
1926, 900 bushels. The closing cables began
firm and the inquiry for wheat at the seaboard
reported good the market had begun to firm
up again in the afternoon.
Corn was firm for five minutes or SO in the
morning but ruled easier later and gave but
slight res ponse to the midday strength in
wheat Toward the close it WAS rather weak
at about l4c decline and closed at yesterdays
prices. May started at AS CSC, sold down to
451s and closed at 451s04.
Trading in the oat marketwas rather limited
with range of only &c in values. Fluctua
tions followed thoss of corn very closely. Nay
sold from 2Sss to 293c, and between these
two prices ilday. At the end lsc higher'was

Some offers of long stuff WAS well received and

Proceedings OF Meeting Held at
st. Louis.
ST. LOUIS, Nov. 10.-A meeting OF
sound money Democrats from every
Congressiona! District in Missouri was
held last night. y protest against an
early convention to select delegates to
the National Convention, and request
upon the State Central Committee to give
ample time for the discussion of the silver
issue, were formulated aud signed by
eVory Democrat III the meeting.
1t was agreed that Democratic su-
preniacy IN the State is menaced by the
free silver movement, and that the best
means OF counteracting that influence
was to allow ample time for discussion
prior to the convention. The free silver
men, on the other hand, desire an early
convention, as in the present temper of
the majority free silver resolution
would be adopted, and delegates TO the
National Convention would be instructed
10 work and vote for free silver.
The resolution adopted last night will
be presented To state Chairman Matlitt
tomorrow. The meeting was presided
over by Ex-Governor Francis, and was
representative of every section of the
State.

NO ANTHRAX AMONG THE CATTLE.
A Disquieting Suspicion Has Been
Set at Rest.
What DIR. Hardness Says About Alfalfa
Fungus-Veterinary McColIum's
Discovery.

DR.. II. W. Hardness, President OF the
San Francisco Academy of Sciences,
performed an invaluable service to the
county yesterday. Learning of the
statement that cattle from recently
imported Oregon herd were dying rap
idly of the disease known as anthrax IN
the vicinity of Elk Grove and believing
the great mortality to be due to an en-
tirely different cause, the doctor has
tened down from Auburn to give the
Board of Supervisors the benefit OF his
theory
DR.. Hardness is a great student of
botany, and in the pursuit of his study
OF this branch of science he discovered
q few years ago that at the season of
the year just preceding the winter
rains alfalfa becomes afflicted with a
fungus growth known to scientists as
'dothidia," and that it is capable OF
poisoning cattle that feed on it. So the
doctor went out to an alfalfa field on
Sunday and secured a bunch or the
clover thus affected, and came to this
city yesterday morning to tell the Su-
pervisOrs what he knew about its effect
on cattle that feed on it.
DR.. Hardness said that a couple OF
years ago there was an alarming NOR
tally among cattle in Fresno and Kern
Counties that had a short time before
been brought into the State, and that no
enc in those localities could account
therefor. Cattle pastured on the alfalfa
fields died off like people afflicted with
cholera, and he was requested to go
down to the counties named and inVeS-
tigate the mystery.
Then it was that the value of the sci
entist's knowledge of plants and their
enemies was demonstrated. Hundreds
OF head, if not thousands, Of cattle had
died in the alfalfa fields there, and DR.
darkness was positive that the deadly
fungus was the cause. To prove the
correctness of his theory the cattle that
survived were taken from the alfalfa

The audience complained because it
suffered from cold draughts, simply be-
cuso their were openings kept par
sistently open that induced bad
draughts and drew upon Manager
Todd anathemas. He cannot afford
this. The comfort of the audience is
among the first considerations. 1t was
not needed that the furnaces should
have been heated, but the cold draughts
should have been excluded and could
have been without any trouble at al.
He will surely correct the neglect to-
