CHICAGO Jan. 9--ln wheat few sales
were made at the opening at about one cent
higher higher than yesterdays final fig
ures. Liverpool showed unexpected
strength in view of the weakness which
prevailed here yesterday, futures there
being quoted Nd higher. There were other
encouraging features for the recently dis
heartened bulls. The receipts here were
only twenty-nine cars and at Minneapolis
and Duluth only ia. The weekly ship

40 600 bushels the similar week of last year.
The advance at Liverpool. however, did not
make altogether plain sailing for the bulls
and though it's effect was marked at the
opening, rumors that that market was
being manipulated in the interest of
clique on this side, coupled with free real
izing by operators who were satisfied with
their profits. caused a reaction. The re-
markably fine showing of the New York
bank statement had some effect in favor of
the bulls. The market held steadily be-
tween S19s and Slia bid in the last hour, and

There was considerable pressure to sell,

st. Clair county Kansas has a rough
road for those who aspire to the hon
ors of county judges. The county IS
held to owe a considerable sum to east
ern bondhOlders of a railroad that was
never built, AMI he Unitcl Stat, s
court has ordered the county judges to
levy a tax to pay this judgment. The
judges refuse and are ordered to jail.
The second set are now doing time for
such refusal. No man can be elected
county judge in that county without
a pledge to go to Jail before he will
levy the tax to pay for this road that
was never constructed. There the mat
ter rests. The judges are in contempt
and in Jail, the bondhOldeTs are with
out their money and the county with
out a road. Here is an opportunity for
"Sockless Jerry and Mary Yellin" to
distinguish themselves.

a FAIR FRANCHISE.

There will be no disposition on the
chise, in any case. The interests of the
city will be consulted first, and it is
not forgotten that these interests are
one with the interests of the trade and
industries of the citizens. What will
be required on the part of the city as
condition precedent to granting such
franchises, will be a clear understand
ing of the limitations under which such
franchise is granted, such extension
of its application as to make it as gen.
eral as practicable and such cOmpen-
satiOn to the city for the privileges
thus conferred as will properly requite
it. Under these limitations, every pos
sibe aid to private enterprise that can
be given will be cheerfully bestowed
by the city administration. There is
no antagOnism between the city gov
eminent and the business and indus
tries of the city. The most absolute
cordially exists between these and it
is to the interest of both that it
should. Working hand in hand for
common object, there will be the best
possible results obtained only when the
city grants all that it reasonably can
in the way of franchises, and the hold
ers of such franchises return to the
city all that they can for the privileges
conferred. 1t is not to the interest of
the city to grant an exclusive franchise
where a general one would cover the
ground. This fact should be considered
by those who apply for franchises at
the hands of the city administration,
and the council should not be asked
TO discriminate in favor of one at the
expense of others. A hearty coopera-
lion between the city and the indus
.ries of the city will in all cases great
Y facilitate the increase of present en-
erprises and aid in establishing new
Dnes. There has been too much antag-
'nism between the people and the city
government in the past, and it would
greatly increase the comfort of the mu-
licipal government and aid it's efficien-
" were this feeling merged into one

The Sultan of Turkey presents his
case personally in an interview with
the late minister to his capital from
the United States, Terrell of Texas. He
shows him alike from the history OF
the Armenian occupation and from the
sacred books of his own faith, that the
Armenians are not subject to persecu-
ton on account of their Christian
faith, the Mahommedans holding the
Bible and the Jewish Talmud and the
books of Confucius as sacred as the
Khoran. The sultan says that the Ar
menians enjoyed all privileges under
his rule and that of his predecessors,
that they were the bankers and arti-
sans of the empire, and that it was on
ly when they plotted to make his en-
pire Christian that they were proceed
ed against. There is a great deal of
historic truth in this statement.

There is a scheme on foot by the re-
OrganizingcOmmittee of the Kansas Pa
cific road to make the Denver connec-
ton with Kansas City by way of the
old Kansas Central, thus leaving the
present Kansas branch of the Pacific
to care for itself. 1t is said that by
building IS miles a connection can be
made at Oakley on the Union Pacific
and thus the necessity for the Kansas
Pacific would be Obviated. This would
leave that road in the hands of the
government and the $4,000, 900 demand
ed by the government for it's interest
would be left to take care of itself.

which was a violation of a promise
made at the time Mr.. Henrici signed the
bond, according to the latter's state
