Chicago Change.

Chicago, H., Sept. 1.-The sentiment. in wheat today was quite the reverse of what it was yesterday. Values yielded to selling rather than to buying, lower quotations be- ing established. Local operations were the only ones of any valume, and they were by no means excessive. Oneprofessional scalp ed in moderate sized quantities, but the average of the transactions were extreme ly light. December wheat opened at 58s4 Q 5SBc, declined to 5SAc, closing at 5Sl4l5S$sc. a4c under yesterday. Cash wheat was weak and 1ad134c lower.
 Corn traders were unable to evolve from the situation anything in the shape of an argument for higher prices, and finding wheat less strong than yesterday were nat urally induced to try the selling side, but only moderately there being few on hand to help the market. May corn opened at 247sc, sold at 24Ac, declined to and closed at 243sc, 3s@l2c under yesterday. Cash corn was easy and Ac lower.
 The situation in corn from a business standpoint was reproduced in oats, and the tone was likewise very similar. The under tone was extremely weak, however, oats traders expressing confidence in the ultl- mate recovery of prices.
 Products pursued downward course dis regarding a steady hog market in the adop- tion of a tone, and a leaning rather to the influence coming from grain. January pork closed 10c lower, January lard 547lec lower and January ribs 21aM5c lower.
 Leading futures ranged as follows:

Cotton Letter.

Cotton Lettef.
 New York, Sept. 4.-(Special)-The mar ket today was nervous and alternated ire quently between strength and weakness. January opened lower at S.35, advanced to 8.44, reacted to S31 rallied to S.41 and closed at S.32@S.33, with the tone easy. The final slump occurred in this way: New Orleans sent some liberal selling orders little be- fore the close. This cotton was bought by the leading German bear who at once be- gan to hammer the market savagely, using the purchases he had just made for that purpose the room traders fled before the attack, throwing overheard their holdings. But the set backs in our opinion do not change the general trend of prices. We expect to see cotton higher than ever before the middle of the month.

In Wall Street.

New York, Sept 4.-Stocks ruled strong until near the close, when there was slight reaction, due to the bank failure in Mon- tana and the suspension of land and mort- gage coxGany in Kansas The early strength or the market was the result of heavy covering of short contracts and in- rceased buying for commission house ac- counts. The large receipts of gold from Europe today and the belief that additional ngagements of the metal for shipment to New York will be made in London next week was the main factor at work. Money on call was perceptibly easier, and tranSac- tions in time loans were reported flat at per cent for short dates. Related shorts con- noon trading even they were compelled to come in the market and cover their con- tracts. This buying, with the commission business already referred to, led to rise of AG9s per cent, Sugar, the grangers, Louis- ville and Nashville, anthracite eoaers, Van derbilt and Gould stocks all being prominent iI49l, Rock island to 5O,4.

The poor railway reports for the fourth week of August.reports that tomorrows bank state ment will be unfavorable and vague reports that the Manhattan directors were discuss ing the advlsability of reducing the rate of dividends all failed to dampen the bullsh ardor. The business troubles In the west had only a slight influence. and in the clos ing dealings the market was firm again. In the inactive list Northwest preferred gained 4 per cent, to 1i5 and Illinois Steel lss, to 371a.

patriotic, sarcastic, inspiring, and ridicu-

the history of politics during the last hair

in 1910, and contributed largely to the
election of Harrison and Tyler.
Every feature OF that campaign scemedto

tended toward song, if it did not attain
the full! dignity of melody. During that
contest Cuba was an important factor,
there being a Popular sentiment in favor
of annexation, and the fitting out of
filibustering expeditions was regarded as
a work of highest merit. In the log
