.LowEsr YET For coRN."


ron September last the following head
lines appeared over the market reports In
the Chicago Evening Post: Lowest Y"t
For Corn-Sells To-day at 10 Cents Per
Bushel For September Delivery - Wheat
Also Weak and Low."1
Yesterday when work was over,
And tho evening closing down.
Reading through the evening paper
News of country and of town,
Giancing at commercial columns
To learn how trade had ruled since morn.

Reading: Lowest yet for corn"
Lowest yet for cornr What of 1T
Surely, nothing new to hear;
Every week tells the same story,
Month by month and year by year.
Lowest yet for corni" Consider
Though the story may be old
There are those who have to suffer
Every time the tale is told.
Every time the tales repeated
Unto ears well-nigh forlorn
Some surviving hopes defeated.
Hearing: Lowest yet for corn"
But fancy some are saying:
cit Is safe at all events;
Safe to say Chicago market
Won't go under twenty cents:
When those fearless speculators ~
See tho chance before them hero
They'll become bold operators"-
And-"Theres nothing left to fear"
We have heard some such assertion
Bravely made from year to year;
"I.ower than this last quotation.
There Is nothing left to fear"
Nothing left to fearl" Where are thcy7
Who are left with strength to copo
with this ever-downward pressurei
No! here's nothing left to hopel
Nothing left to hope II wisdom
Has not yet the lesson taught,
ny the striking down of silver
nas the wretched wreck beer wrought.
Nothing left to hope! Rememberl
Back In eighteen seventy-three
Gold and silver both sustained us,
Silver coinage then was free.
Cnrestrnined each noble metal
Aided all the works of man.
Each In turn relieved the other
On the bimetallic plan.
Only once or twice this nation
Had endured q panic's sway,
Now. like any poor relation.
Panic comes Embarrassed to stayi
Dismal periods OF depression,
disappointment OH all hands.
See us raise In sad succession
IIaif-priced crops on mortgaged landa
ITnlf-priced crops. which in the selling.
Leave such small rewards to toll.
Sorrow quarters In the dwelling
OF the tiller OF the soil.
Cunning trickstors said though silver
Had been king In days of yore.
Now Its royal reign was ended,
II should be freo-coined no more.
Thus by tricks that treason played us,
Sllvers coinage rights were sold;
And the crimes results have made US
Slaves to Europe and to gold.
Patiently TIL now we've borne 1t.
But the outlook growing worse,
Love OF country! Love of freedomI
Call us now TO end the curse.
We have got a ven-selccted
Champion by Gods good grace.

To the nations highest place.

simply upon the opinion of the court

NEW YORK, Aug. 4.-The failure of
Moore Bros. of Chicago was a complete
surprise to Wall street and was at first as
sumed to include the collapse of the Dia-
mond Match company of Chicago and the
New York Biscuit company, which had
been promoted by the firm. The sensa-
tional character of the failure and the UNI
usual step taken of closing the Chicago
stock exchange pending a REIMBURSEMENT led
the financial community at large to expect
the most startling disclosures. 1t was
feared that the New York banks might
be involved as holders of collateral and
that also wholesale liquidation in the gran
gers and other shares might result. Lower
London cables previous TO the opening also
created an unfavorable impression. Ac-
cordingly there was rush to sell at the
sound of the gong and during the nrst
fifteen minutes the market was demoralizHd
under liquidati bear offerings and sales
for foreign account The situation was ag-
gravated by expectations Of a sharp ad-
vance in rates Tor money adm commercial
paper In the time specified declines were
scored all along the line with the grangers
the favorite objects of attack. The selling
pressure abated later and sharp rallies oc-
CURED on a clearer understanding of the
situation. Leading bankers were hearl
from to the effect that the New York insti-
tutions We're not involved. Chicago dis
patches were received reporting that meas
ures had been taken to support the stock
OF the Diamond Match company and quoted
prominent capitalists as saving that the
trouble would be over within a compare
lively short time. NEVERTHELESS it was
learned later that the New York bank had
called loans in order to send money to
Chicago. The result of this action al
though the fact that 1t had been taken oil
not become public. was the withdrawal
of offers of short funds and the marking
up of rates TO six per cent for all periods.
Call money was advanced TO @le per cent
as the maximum figure, with the bulk of
transactions. however, at 2205- per cent
stiffenng of commercial paper rates also
took place, lower quotations than 6i2 per
cent for prime paper being the exception
The market became extremely dull at the
recovery. owing to the continued depress-
ing effect of the railroad rate disturbances,
disappointing traffic returns and expecta-
lions of poor exhibits yet to be published.
AS the day progressed fractional varia-
lions either way occurred, frequently as
a result of trading operations. further
rise in actual and posted rates of sterling
exchange failed to create ripple. Around
| o'clock the advance was checked and
under light offerings by the bears. together
with realizing sales. prices reacted to near
the initial low figures. The closing was
irregular at net declines of 1G2 per cent in
the leading shares. Therailway bond mar
kat was dull with sagging tendency The
sales were s41S000. Government bonds
were dull but lower on sales of $4,000. In
silver certificates $4,000 brought 69l2.
