CHICAGO MARKET.

Trade.

CHICAGO, Jan. 16.-In wheat Liverpool
the quotations from that market showing
I'd advance. in face of y cent decline here
yesterday. 1t did not have very much ef-
feet however, the frequency with which
that market has see-sawed with the local
market of late having caused feeling of
Indifference. But its influence was strong
enough to cause the May option. which
closed yesterday at so cents to open today
at S0A. After that there was brief period
of weakness. caused by selling orders from
outside markets, St. Louis especially
which caused it to sell at S$s. But the
easy feeling was short lived Receipts at
Chicago We're forty cars. A year ago they
ported 2@ cars against ia last Saturday
and 400 a year ago. The weeks shipments
of wheat and flour from both coasts were
given by Bradstreet's as 2.94S0C0 as COM
pared with 100000, the week before. 1t was
intimated in the cablegrams that the
worlds exports of wheat and flour to
Europe this week were expected to show
up small Monday and that was understood
to be the chief rea son for Liverpoo's firm
ness. The market became firmer advanc-
ing to SOss.' A further rise was made to
S10S1B about twenty minutes from the
close ana the latest trading was at S031 ar
u Improvement for the day. Corn ruled a
trifle firmer. Influenced by the strength in
wheat and by the reduction of rail freight
TO the seaboard. equal to 2h per bushel.
Oats were firm all day. The strength in
wheat helped the advance and wet weather
was also a bull factor Provisions opened
easy at n slight decline, were inclined to
heaviness for an hour or so and then be-
came firmer.

towards easy money here. because the

JOHN M. STEVENSON.
620 Bellevue avenue, Los Angeles, Cal.

To the Public: I take pleasure in tes-
tifying to my marvellous recovery under
the treatment of DR.. Wong Him of $50
Upper Main ST., Los Angeles, from a num-
Der of stubborn ailments. among which
were chronic sick-headaches dyspepsia
and kindred stomach troubles, heart affec-
tion and kidney disease. But what con-
slider this physician execlled in, so far as
my case is concerned, was in the restora-
tion of my eye service. Astigmati tism
coupled with other disorders, was my af-
Fiction in this respect, and, although a
number of we'll known skilled oculists in
some of the larger cities of this country
advised me I should always have to de-
pend upon glasses, and receive but poor
service even then. DR.. Wong Him's rem
edies have enabled me to abandon totally
the use of any artificial help to sight, and
my eyes continue to give such service
both for near work and distant. as is truly
wonderful. To the skill and remedies of
the physician named can alone be attrib-
uted a revolution in my physical condition
throughout that puzzles those who knrw
of the 'incurable" character of my ar
flictions. Respectfully,
G. L. PLOWMAN,

A DILEMMA.


Washington. March pa question has
arisen as to our Cuban relations that will
require delicate treatment in order to
avoid working harm TO mary Americans.
About a year ago the Spanish government
by decree suspended the right of creditors
to collect debts. in order to avert the
threatened ruin Of the planters. This ac-
ton was made the subject of energetic
protest by a number Of American capital
sis mostly resident In the North who
held Cuban mortgages and other securities
and thus saw themselves cut off from their
rightful interest The state department
was obliged 10 make this decree the basfs
Ct a formal dissent thus saving the right
to prefer claims for damages later on.
Now the decree has expired and the laws
fer tho collect. on OF debts again become
operative, and there Is another protest
this time from the American pNnters In
cuba and their fi2ancal hackers, who.
Laving teen obliged to SOP sugar grow Ing
and cane grinding by oEers OF both Span
i.h and insurgents. low SEQ themselves
threatened with less OF III their property
through foreclosure. The roint is that IL
cur government protests against this las,
phase OF the case. the first protest would
lcse force, while II IL fails to do so. great
hardship will follow.

THE DECISION FOR DIXON.
Dushy Boston Boy Defeated Prsnh
Erne.
FOUGHT A TWENTY-FIVE ROUND BOUT
Ernie Was Twelve Pounds Heavier
Than Dixon. bat the Champion
FcathcrwciRht Won Ensily.

New York, March 24.--Six thousand pco-
club tonight to witness the twenty five
round bout between George Dixon, the
worlds champion featherweight, and Frank
Ernc OF Buffalo. These two were matched
to meet at l22 pounds. but while Dixon
was at the weight Erne was easily twelve
pounds heavier than his dusky adversary.
After the twenty-five rounds were COM
plcted Dixon was declared the winner and
he received an ovation.
Erne led very seldom and Dixon forced
tho fighting all through. When some Of
the lightweight fighters offered to take
Dixon's place on account OF Ernes being
so much over weight, the little Bost,1
boxer said; NO, no, not on your lie: |
don't care II he weighs ton. will fight
him and lick him.
Tom O'Rourke, Dixon's manager, as
serted before the boys donned the gloves
that there was evidently some job up ard
he declared all bets off. Dixon never
looked better In his life and his work In
the ring was worthy OF his very best days.
Tonight's contest shows that the decision
rendered against him In favor OF Erne last
year was not merited by Erne's hstic
pro'eess.
These were sample rounds.
Round twenty -four--Dxon kept leading
and Ernc simply clinched. Dixon swung
his left on the head. Dixon rushed and
Erne jabbed his left on the ribs. Erne
landed left hand hook on the side o'
ilixons head. when George was In his own
corner. AS the gong sounded Erne sent
his right to the ear
