WEEKLY MARkgr LgrrER.
Downing, Hopkins company's Review
of Trade.

We have had week of ner-
vous, erratic markets, fluctuations
covering wide range, but finally set.
Ting near the figures OF week ago.
Receipts are comparatively light, with
good demand both home and abroad.
Exports for the week were again very
heavy (6,26S,247 bushels), and that
ratio will probably be increased short
ly. The report of the Hungarian min
lister OF agriculture estimates the deficit
in the worlds wheat crop at about $780,
600, 900 bushels. This very bullish
estimate and will make itself felt in the
calculations of the grain trade. Thresh-
ing returns from the Northwest, while
meagre as yet, are very disappointing
the yield falling below even the latest
estimates, while the quality is very
poor indeed, and there will be q great
deal of low grade and rejected wheat on
the market when the crop gets to NOV
ing more freely. We feel very bullish
indeed ON the general outlook, and be-
lieve that wheat viii sell far above the
dollar mark before Christmas. 1t is
perfectly natural that we should have
reactions; it is sign OF healthy mar
ket, but we consider we have had ours
after the late advance.
There has been a very firm undertone
to corn, and while it has reacted from
the sharp rally that followed the break
of last week, yet there is no sign OF any
real weakness and there is feeling
that it will seek much higher level of
prices than those now prevailing. Re-
ceipts have been large, with good de-
mand. The export demand still con-
tinues to make itself felt, and clear
ances last week aggregated nearly 81
coo, 900 bushels, and would have been
larger had there been vessel room to
ship it in. Crop news contineus prac-
tically unchanged, the crop making fair
progress during the week.

cave HIs Father enc promo.lon.

A case Of sons thoughtfulness and
affection for a father has come to light
in the navy department, at Washing
ton. John Casson and his son, Schley
Casson, are clerks in the Office OF Secre-
tary Long at salaries until recently at
$1,000 each. The work Of the young
man attracted attention, ard he was
notified of promotion, with 81, 400
salary. Young Casson refused to ac-
cept, saying that his father had been
longer in the service and was more de-
serving. At the young mans request
the promotion was transferred to the
father.

unlted stnte. senate Emnloxe..

Thirty years ago 20 employees Of the
United States s'senate were on the pay
roll. Today the number is 354. The
large increase is in proportion not only
to the size of the senate, but as we'll to
the increase in public business. due to
the enormous development Of the coun-
try. 1t takes more employees to trans
act this business. But the number of
high-priced employees has not increased
in proportion to the increase in the to-
tai number. Thus, two years ago an
1890 clerk in the postotfice was cut
off and two men at 5000 each were
added to the carrier service. 1t was said
that the clerk was not needed, but the
additional carriers were.

STOLE HER HUSBAND.
So Declares Mrs. John C. Van Schaaek,
of New York.

Do Oecl8EcB AtTss JOHN Cs Nh OcHddcks
of New York.
New York, Sept 13.-The World
says: Mrs. John G. Van Setback has
begun suit for $65, 900 damages against
her father-in-law, Peter Van Schaack.
head of the family and senior partner
in the. great drug firm of Van Setback
& Sons, for alternating her husband IS
affections. The plaintiff is a daugh-
ter of Henry Palmer, and niece of
Potter Palmer.
Her specific charge against her
father.j law is that in 1897, while
plaintiffs husband was living with
her and supporting her in Brooklyn,
the defendant enticed the husband
away from the plaintiff and their home
and induced him to go to Chicago,
where he has since "by undue influence
kept him.
Mrs. Van Schaack, then Florence
Palmer, and John Van Setback were
wintering visitors in Florida together
in 1888, and in March Of that year
they were married. The wife is strik
ingly handsome woman of 26 years of
age. She was educated in Paris and
Berlin, and before her marriage was

Two Unique Colonies.

A farming community in which every
one Of the l45 workers may be expected
TO drop his hoe or pillow handles or her
broom or dish tray at any moment
without warning, and writhe upon the
ground in convulsive agonies, Is rather
unique among all colonization schemes.
Such, however, is the Craig colony for
epileptics at Sonyea, N. Y, with it's
group Of 90 men and rs women. At
the national conference Of charities and
correction in Toronto, / had been
strongly assured that no view of East.
ern philanthropists could be complete
without visit to the new, but famous
Craig colony. Accordingly pedaled
my bicycle over country roads south
from Rochester, through Genesee and
Mount Morris, TO diminutive Sonyea,
whose residents are exclusively epilep-
tics or their attendants. The new col
ony opened in 1896 is possessed Of
/ 800 acres, and occupies the buildings
OF an old Shaker sect, whose members
were followers Of Ann Lee and practiced
her doctrine Of celibacy. Whether the
Shaker sect wasted away for lack OF
progeny or not, the property was duly
acquired by the state Of New York,
and the legislators at Albany deter
mined to collect. here another set Of
celibates, the 900 or 1000 epileptic
patients who were scattered about in
almshouses, in asylums for the insane
or feeble.minded, and INDECENT private
homes. In none of these places were

RIGHTS OF THE ROAD.

We think the New York Times is
correct in its division of bicyclists into
two great classes, those who ride as an
incident to their daily calling, a recre-
alton, rest, getting out of the groove
and a healthful exercise, and the class
who make wheel-riding the center of all
their activity, around which all things
else must revolve. OF the first class,
as a rule society has nothing to COM
plain. From the other class it has
trouble because of the assumption by
these people that wheeling is the bust
ness of life and not an incident to it.
The second class is very apt to fall
into the belief-it is of gradual growth
with them-that they may disregard
the rights of pedestrians and of horse
OF vehicles, but deny that their wheels
are subject to the regulations obtaining
regarding vehicles. Wheelmen are not
in majority in any community But
If they were, the minority has rights
that are guaranteed and must be re-
spected. In speaking of bicyclfsts,
therefore, it is we'll to keep in mind, as
The Times" suggests, that there are
two distinct classes, and just as there
are two classes of drivers. But it is
also true that there are two classes of
pedestrians, those who regard the rights
OF users of vehicles and those who hold
that their rights and convenience rise
superior 10 those of all others Both
wheelmen and pedestrians, drivers and
riders of animals, must be brought to
tull realization of the truth that their
rights and privileges under wise regu-
lations are equal, and that upon each
are imposed by the necessary order of
society like obligations and cautions.
Each must exercise reasonable care
and each is entitled to reasonable pro-
lection
At Fort Mcpherson Mr.. HOPKINS. a
wheelman, was ordered by a sentry to
ride more slowly. Hopkins disobeyed
the command and the sentry thereupon
ran him through. The case has excited
great deal of debate, and feeling runs
nigh on both sides. AS the Times"
says, both men were wrong, the rider
Tor disobedience to a proper order, the
sentry for use of the bayonet in a way
involving probably human life. The
soldier should have placed the rider
under arrest and have presented him
Tor punishment and the rider for his
infringement of the sentry's order
meted out to him. A sentry must be
obeyed, but he is not to become the ex-
ecutioner OF the law. He had no right
TO stab the offender, for he was not
committing an act that rendered any
such resort TO arms necessary.

CONVICT LABOR.

The New York Tribune" contends
II at the best field for convict labor is
found on the public roads AS to that
We would disagree with the Tribune. .
1t might be well enough for the densely
settled Empire State. but it would not
do for sparsely populated California.
To work convicts upon our highways
would necessitate greater cost than
free labor, for transportation. convict
camps, guards and supplies. However.
passing that consideration, this express
sion from the Tribune on the ques-
tion of idleuess or work for imprisoned
men is noteworthy:
Many of the prisoners soon found
their way to the punishment depart
ment, to the hospital, and to the insane
asylum. That was the disastrous re-
suit, five months ago, of the closing of
the Sing Sing prison workshops. That
was the plain, unyarnished fact. and it
is the fact in every great penal insti-
tuition in which suitable occupation is
not provided for the inmates. En-
forced idleness in their cells drives men
to INSTRUMENTATION, sickness or mad
ness. And those are conditions no
Government has a right to impose upon
Its subjects, any more than the thumb
screw or the rack. It may punish, but
not deprave. 1t may kill outright. if
capital punishment be lawful. but not
disseminate disease of body or of mind.

GUTHRIE CAN GIT II.
The Hospital Which Winfield Wants

The attention ~ the Guthrie club is
called TO The fact that I prompt action

pital which Winfield has been trying
so hard to secure, and nOout which so
much has been said lately
Dr.. Williams last night received a
telegram from Or. deorge Emerson, OF
Winfield asking him TO come to that
place on the early morning train for
the purpose OF comforting with Father
MeKernau IN relation to this matter,
From Winfield the three will 20 10
Leavenworth 70 see the bishop.
Neither oklahoma nor the Indian
territory has a hospital, while there
are three located at Wichita. This Is
the reason that Winfield will fail to
secure the coveted institution, as 1t
has practically been decided by the
originators that the interest Of the
two territories would be better served
by It's location here rather than at
Winfield, where the ground is prac-
ticAlly covered by the wichita hos
pitfalls.
The Santa Fe railroad also wants the
hospital here and Messrs. Asp, Shar-
tel & Cottingham have been doing all
in their power to bring It,
Great credit is due Drs Williams
and Emerson for their untiring efforts
on behalf OF Guthrie in this matter as
it is owing almost entirely to their
efforts that this city will secure this
mu n needed institution.
