European Markets

NEW YORK, July 2.-The Evening
Posts London financial cablegram says.
The disturbances in India and the proceed
ings before the South African commission
depressed all the stock markets here to-
day except on American rails, which were
firm, in sympathy with the rise in New
York, but there is practically no buying
here at present. Tomorrow and on Monday
large sums of cash will come into the
market This is expected ere long to ease
the money market and to stimulate activ-
ity in securities. AT the moment the profess
sional dealers in American and other spec
ulative stocks are very hopeful of the
public coming in, but the public them
selves are utterly apathetic. The Paris

In the case of Lee VS.. the Union Central
Life Insurance Company, recently decided
by the Kentucky Court of Appeals, 1t ap-
peared that in an action on an insurance
policy a receipt had been given the in
sured which recited that the company had
received sS962 the first annual premium on
a policy of insurance for $4,000 on his life.
1t was understood and agreed, according
to recital of the receipt, that the de-
ceased was to be insured from the date of
the receipt, provided the application
should be approved, but that if declined
the receipt should be null and void and the
premium returned. The application was
approved and a policy with the application
attached was issued and sent to the state
agent of the company. The insured died
before the delivery of the policy. The
court held that when the beneficiary under
the policy established the death of the in
sured and showed that the application had
been approved a prima facie case was
made out and the company was liable.

CHICAGO MARKET
Yesterdays Transactions on the Board
of Trade

CHICAGO, July I'm wheat there was
little in the news calculated to affect prices.
There was a disposition among the shorts
to even, in view of the fact that there
would be no session of the board until next
Tuesday. This demand constituted the
principal business of the day, and there
was little else to- give the market strength.
Liverpool quotations were unchanged to
I'D higher al the opening and private
cablegrams from Paris estimated the
French crop at from S0,000,0O to 11O, 900, 900
bushels short. Trading was confined prn-
cipally to September. The first sales in that
option were made at yesterdays closing
price, 64%. 1t held around that price for a
time then lazily advanced to 65BM65. and
around u o'clock was bringing 64s. In the
afternoon the market became weak, with
out any further information on the crops
or general outlook, and a gradual decline
took place, September bringing up at 641s
u64A. shortly before the close. st. Louis
market was said to be demoralized by
heavy offerings of wheat, which had some
effect in weakening this market. Closing
cables quoted Liverpool 12d higher for
futures and 1sd lower for northern No.
spring. The Atlantic port clearances of
wheat and flour were equal to 900 BUSH
els. Stocks of wheat at Minneapolis and
Duluth are expected to show a decrease
for the week of 600 bushels and the Wis
ible supply a total decrease of 1,250, 900
bushels. The decrease in the visible in
the similar week of last year was 642, 900
bushels. September was bringing 64A@
643s at the close. Corn was by far the most
active market on the floor, which is moi
saying much Reports of hot winds in
Kansas caused general rush of shorts
to cover during the morning. An easier
feeling prevailed later in the day, when
wheat declined and the advance was all
lost. Oats were fairly active with prices
within a narrow range. Provisions were
weak all day.

FRIDAY. MARCH 10. 1897


A good many well meaning peo-
pie condemn the investment of
money in mining stocks and mines
as a vicious form Of gambling. AS
a matter of fact there is no more
honorable way of securing wealth
than to get it out of natures treas
ure vaults. The bowels of these
mountain ranges are scanned with
veins of gold, silver, copper, iron
and lead. Capital is required to
make them productive. Once
opened they enrich their owners
year after year, and as a profitable
investment they are Incompatible
with any other to be found. OF
course, not all mines are good, and
the investor should use the same
care, common sense and good
Judgment in placing his money
that he uses in other forms of bust
ness enterprise. Select something
which has reasonable showing
and which will justify the expense
of development. It is a long road
from the discovery Of a vein and
the bottom of a 10-foot shaft, down
through the solid rock to put
enough pay ore in sight to justify
the erection of a milling plant, and
this road has to be cut with steel
inch by inch, requiring months and
even years of unceasing toll.
Then, other things being equal
those properties showing the great
est amount of development should
be preferred to those having less de-
velopment, as they are the most
likely to bring earlier returns. A
judicious mining investment is the
most profitable of any to be found,
and we are glad to note that our
own local community is reaching
out for some of the good things in
mining investments which are now
offering in our own bailwick.
