RESCUE HOME FOR WOMEN.
One Will be Established by Salvation
Army in Omaha

Omaha, Sept, 29.-Commander Booth
Tucker of the Salvation Army in this
country arrived in the city today He
will remain in this city only over night
as he desires to return to his head
quarters in New York. He will speak
this evening at the First Methodist
church upon the work of the army
Inc OBJECT OF the commanders visit
to the west was to open a rescue home
for men in Kansas City, which was
done a few days ago. 1t was consid-
cred inadvisable to open the wOmen's
home in the same place, and the local
members are more than confident that
the institution will be established in
this city. The home will be used to
shelter all women in this division who
are DESTROYS of reforming. 1t will be
of some magnitude, as the division en-
braces Kansas, Nebraska and Okla
hOna.

selled peace and order. President Boyce
of the western federation of miners,
then spoke, cOunselling the miners to
stand firm, as the strike must win. He
bitterly denounced the citizens for or
ganizing militia companies, saying they
were acting as tools of the mine man
ayers He said the federation would
stand by the strikers and keep them
and their families from suffering and
told them not to speak to the militia
unless they wanted to, but not to an
tagOnize them.
He advised the strikers to go home
early, and stay there.

Leadvins, Col, Sept. 29.-From pres
ent indications bitter struggle is in
progress in the miners union between
the leaders who wish to continue the
strike for uniform wages Of So per day
for all the men in all the mines and the
conservative men who think the time
has arrived when OvertureS for peace
should be made to the mine operators.
1t is believed that at the general meet
ing called for Wednesday evening the
union will resolve to treat for peace OF
make provisions for making more ag
greSsiVe war.
J. r. Auburn. president of the union
has not been seen on the streets here
since the riot which occurred over
week ago. It is reported he was slight
ly wounded in the fight at the Emmett
mine, where he had been attracted by
the shooting and that he has since been
in hiding in this city under a doctors

The mine operators remain firm in
their determination not to cOncede the

NEARLY TWO CENTS ADDED TO
THE PRICE OF CHICAGO
WHEAT,
OPENING WAS DEPRESSED.
SHARP RALLY FOLLOWED THAT
SENT THE SHORTS TO HUNT
ING COVER.
THE OUTSIDE MARKETS STRONG.
But for Them the Routine Bear
News Would Have Had Its Gus
tOmary Effect.

CHICAGO, Sept. 25.-In the face of news
suggestive rather of decline than of an ad-
vance, the price of December wheat showed
lssc advance at the close To the strength,
displayed by outside markets late in the day,
Is the advance principally due. Other mar
kets were fiat, corn closing a shade higher,
oats Ac higher and provisions unchanged to
cents lower. The cable news this morning
rather grated upon the bulls In the wheat
market. Liverpool opened unchanged and a
little later even reported prices I'D lower.
That was all that was needed to create some
weakness here December opened with SELL
ers at from 65Ac down to 64Ac and the
latter price became the point from which the
bulls and bears made alternate drives
at each other during the first hour Of the
forenoon. Minneapolis and Duluth received
722 cars aginst S41 on the corresponding
day of the year before. The general tenor
OF the advices from Minneapolis, however.
was that farmers deliveries in the North
west would be much increased next week.
The export clearances amounted in wheat
and flour to 222 600 bushels. Those who had
been tempted in the first hour to sell short
became uneasy and began gradually to buy 1t
back. Their anxiety increased and caused
gradual spread Of their fears until every
one wanted wheat and q rapid advance from
6o19 to 671sc followed. A private cablegram
quoting Liverpool Id lower had helped to de-
press the market and when the public clos
Ing dispatch was received quoting an ad-
vance in the price Of -four and wheat, that
did much in creating the revulsion of feel
ing. The Northwest also advanced 1c or SO.
Prices ruled strong to the close, December
closing at 671sc. Corn was quiet and weak,
chiefly influenced by the feeling in wheat.

NEW YORK, Sept. 25.-Bradstreet' S
tomorrow will say: In Eastern job
bling circles the feeling is one Of IN
creasing confidence. There is more do
ing in some staple lines, noticeably at
the East and at a few Southern cities.
In most other instances purchasers
continue for immediate wants only.
There is little expectation of a gen.
eral revival in business prior to cleo
ton. Throughout the central and
northwest states no material change is
reported IN general trade feature. Ex-
ceptions are at Cincinnati and st.
Louis, where demand for staple goods
is larger Savannah and Augusta re-
port a marked increase in the volume
of business, both wholesale and retail
with satisfactory collections. Memphis
and Galveston report moderate gains
in demand and sales. Improvement is
shown in various commercial and in
dustrial lines at New York, Boston,
Providence and Pittsburg.
Improved demand for wool continues
with an upward tendency in prices.
There is a better jobbing movement in
cotton goods which are higher. Not
started. The starting up of iron mills
and furnaces is conspicuous, but maxi
ers in some instances seem to be an
ticipating demand.
Exports of wheat (four included as
wheaO from both coasts of the United
States and from Montreal this week
amount to 3,S18,646 bushels, as com
pared with 3,506,000 bushels last week,
3,515,00O bushels in the week one year

Dun & CO.'S REVIEW.
Moderate and Yet Distinct Improve
ment to BE Seen.


NEW YORK, Sept. 25.-Dun & Co.'S
weekly review Of trade will say: A
very moderate and yet distinct i'm
provement is seen, no longer only in
the buying of materials which contin-
ues and stlffens prices, but also in or
0erS for products of some industries.
In money markets and In exports OF
staples. 1t Is as yet little more than a.
step toward better things, but has al
ready started some important works
and prompted a few considerable con-
tracts. Continuing arrivals of gold
have raised the treasury reserve to
above SIPS, 600 600, strengthened the
banks and relaxed the stringency in
commercial loans, so that, at about 1
per cent lower rates, more business
was done than in three previous weeks.
Hoarding is no longer reported and
some boards are being unlocked. The
movement of crops continues large,
and purchases for export have adj
vanced prices or prevented depression.
While the gain in working force is not
great, it seems clear that for the first
time in many months there Is some net
gain.
An important change is the general
advance In produce markets, especially
In wheat, which rose sharply on Thurs
day and Friday, closing SIC higher for
the week, with much buying. apparent
ly on foreign accounts. For the first
time since July 1, Western receipts fell
below those Of the same week last
year They are still large, and for the
first quarter of the crop year thus far
have been 52,721,1 5S bushels, against
40, 4l4,351 last year, gain of about 80
per cent. and 1t is conceivable, but
cannot be considered quite probable.
that such receipts have come from a
crop smaller than last years. Atlantic
exports, flour included, were for the
week a little more than year ago. for
September 2,0c0 900 more and q. S07. $50
bushels since July 1, against LIPS, 308
