CHICAGO CHANGE.

CHICAGO. Jan. 6.-All the strength for the ing thu the last @ thirty minutes Of the session. @ Yesterdays weakness was displayed by a f1rmer feeling at the opening this morning, recovery than by reason of anything very encouraging in tho news. Talk of bearish e report py inc @ ps 9n opened at 5Sc. sold between 5sl9 and 57s46 57'sc, closing at 5ec, unchanged from yester- day. Cash wheat was steady.
 Corn--A brief period Of weakness at the opening in corn, due to the receipt of 554 cars, was followed by much better feeling. Scalpers did most of the trading. Near the close an easy tone was noted. May corn opened at 47ssa47l2c, sold between 47s4 and 47ssc, closing at 47l2c, unchanged from yes- terday. Cash corn was easy at about yester- days prices.
 0ats-A fractional decline was made at the opening in oats, but the rally ing power of wheat and corn extended to this market and lifted prices little, only to be succeeded by shade lower than yesterday: Yesterday s prices were obtainable in cash oats, the feel ing, however, ruling easy.
 Provisions-A heavy run of hogs at the yards and the promise of big receipts for to- morrow contributed to weakness in products at he start. A disinclination to sell ''short'' was noticeable, and with some demand, par- >iSularly for pork, rather better feeling de- koped portion of the gain was lost near close. The close was 7l2c higher than erday for May pork. 2Lsa 5c lower for May GndsunchangeAior for May ribs.

He said the circular had been mailed to
him. 1t contained the usual warning to
prospective buyers of green goods to
be careful, and offered $1,000 of the
queer money for $500. The sender of
the letter advised Eigabroadt not to Wis

VERY FUNNY Law. THIS.

Judge Hudspeth yesterday afternoon
rendered a decision in the case of Will
lam Hartman, the Greene street saloon
keeper, who was recently convicted of
atrocious assault upon one of his custom
ers.
Before Justice Potts Hartman had pre-
viously pleaded guilty to simple assault,
thinking to take advantage of the Police
Justice law and escape with a light pun
ishment. Notwithstanding this he was
indicted for the more serious charge.
His counsel objected on the ground
that he could not be twice placed in
jeopardy on the same charge. Prosecutor
Winfield demurred to this and Judge
Hudspeth yesterday sustained the demur-
rer, saying that the verdict was a per-
fectly proper one.
In the interests of justice, however, the
Court suspended sentence and ordered
the F~reeholders to pay the costs.
