GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.
Covering By Shorts Sustained the
Wheat Market.

Chicago, Nov. NEARLY all of the
activity of the wheat market was confined
to the first 40 minutes trading. There was
a very evident unwiilingness among the
big and little shorts to leave their con-
tracts uncovered over tomorrows cleo
uon holiday and the demand from this
source while it lasted was very potent
The additional support OF the market APP
garenUy came from the uneasiness in
England over the political situation as
SHOWN by a drop of Sled in consols.
pool by opening time here had fully re-
covered the decline ii started with, and
cables brought far acceptances and in
curry for corn and oats for both the
United Kingdom and the continent. The
session preceding a holiday is always
notably dull and today was no exception.
After the early demand had been salts
fed the market dropped.
Domestic receipts were very heavy, as
were worlds shipments, and the visible
supply was expected to show large in
crease. These facts had a good deal of
influence in causing a -diminution of the
demand from those who were buying on
the European situation and by the noon
hour good part of the early advance
had been lost. During the last hour
trading was excessively dull but prices
held fairly steady. renewed covering by
shorts on a small scale being sufficient to
sustain the market. May closed CSC
higher.
Corn early showed some strength most
ly through sympathy with wheat, but the
subsequent weakening in wheat and the
liberal receipts of corn had influence
enough to cause a gradual decline in the
price of the coarser cereals. Closed a
shade higher The market for oats re-
hected the action of wheat and corn.
When signs of weakness appeared there
was rather free offering by receivers.
Cash demand was limited. May closed a
shade lower.
Provisions were almost at a standstiIl.
The market was firm and helped by bet
ter yard prices and the advance in
wheat. What little trading was done was
mostly of a scalping nature
The leading futures ranged as follows:

NARROW ESCAPES ON THE RAIL.
Some Remarkable Instances Narrated
 by Railroad Men.

Some Remarkable Instances Narrated
 by Railroad Men.
 There is no question that well au- thenticated cases are on record where disastrous wrecks of railroad trains have been averted by almost seeming miracles. James D. White, general su- perintendent of the railway mail ser vice at Washington, relates the par ticulars of remarkable jump of twen- ty-eight feet made by a locomotive. AS MT. White tells the story, it was on the 1st of September, 1892, when New York and Chicago mail train on the New York Central, which was behind time and running at very high rate of speed, reached New Hamburg, where a twenty eight foot draw of a bridge was open, which open space it is claimed the engine cleared and landed safely on the main portion of the bridge, the rest of. the train going down through the opening. While the engine, it is said, made the leap of twenty-eight feet in safety, the engi- neer and firemen, not having time to jump, were both killed. John H. Cain, a postal clerk, was killed, and M F. Towney, clerk in charge, was seriously injured, the other postal clerks escap- ing unhurt.
 While none of the local railroad men know of any locomotives that are as good jumpers as Whites or that do the bounding jockey act, some of them know of miraculous and hair breadth escapes. Carlton Paris, of the old Ohio and Missippi for many years and more recently with the B. and o. s. w., tells

when the engine threw a piece of rail about three feet long out of the track. This piece of rail was thrown at least twenty-five feet from the track. Strange as it seems, the tender, bag gage car coaches and sleepers went over this place where the rail was out and gained the rail again without one of the cars leaving the track except when the wheels went down on to the ties at one end of the broken rail, only to mount the rail again at the other end of the track. About all the incon- venience the passengers experienced
 was slight shaking"
 Assistant General Passenger Agent
 Ryan said:
 'fI remember two instances when the lives of engineers and ffremen were saved by a seeming intervention of Providence. A number of years ago a | new trestle was being put in, and false works had been erected to permit of the temporary passage of trains The workmen had failed to put in some ne- | cessary bolts. The first train that came along was a freight. As soon as
 the engine struck the false work it
 gave way and down went the engine.
 The fall was one of fifty feet, and in falling the engine made a complete | revolution, and alighted on the ground | upon it's wheels right side up, and the engineer and firemen both escaped in jury, although they were probably pretty badly jared by the fall. "The other case know of is that of
 a train running at good speed, when the engine ran into large rock that had fallen on the track just at the
 mouth of tunnel. The impact caused the tender to bend up from the rear
 end and form a protecting hood over | the engineer and fireman in the loco- | motive cab, and they were uninjured. | Had this not occurred they would eith- | CT have been badly injured or had their | lives crushed out.'

DR, CLARKE's LECTURE,

Dr. William N. Clarke of Colgate university spoke under the auspices of the Leonard Bacon club in Marquand "The Past, Present and Future for the Young Minister" He said that re- ligion was more important than theol- ogy, and that the minister should look back and take what of the past is good and look forward for whatever of good the future may hold. With the power of God in his heart he need have no fear of the problems which the future may have in store for him.

that he and Ed Swift number of years ago were riding on train over the Ohio and Big Sandy road when an accident was narrowly averted. But let Paris tell the story:
 "The road was about the toughest at that time l had ever ridden over. There were only a few passengers on the train Swift and I were in the for ward coach talking to the conductor when the solitary sleeping car passen- ger came staggering in and said: MT. Conductor, your road is so rough l can't sleep in my berth. I have been pitched out of my berth twice in the last quarter of an hour. There must be something the matter.
 "The conductor picked up his lan- tern and said: Come on and I'll go back with you and see what's wrong Swift and I sat where we were talking and very soon we saw that the bell cord was being very violently pulled and the engineer was whistling for brakes. The train finally came to a standstill and Swift and I kept our seats and kept on talking. As, after five minutes or more, there were no signs of the train going ahead, we con- cluded to go back and see what was the cause of the delay.
 ''The conductor and trainmen were grouped about the sleeper with their lanterns and we soon found out that the sleeper had left the track and had been running over the ties for how far we never knew. The night was pitch dark and it was raining very hard. It took the men at least three hours to get the sleeper on the rails again. The wheels were very near the end of the ties and had the train gone one hundred yards further the sleeper would have been off the ties and over a high embankment.''
 Frank Martin of the Missouri, Kan sas and Texas said:

 There was a lively scrimmage on the corner of Main and Center streets early last evening. A drunken man, prohab- Iy tramp, was about uptown during the afternoon and went into Jacobs barber shop asking for money and was ordered out, but declined to go, and was promptly put out by the proprie- tor. The man was persistent and came back into the shop again and was met by the boss, who busted him again and when outside, as the tramp acted pugnacious, was given a straight out from the shoulder blow, which surpris- ed the man, who started in for an other bout, when he got another shoul- der hit, which sent him down on the sidewalk with a thump. MT. Tramp was soon on his feet, but MT. Jacobs reversed his tactices and used the toe of his shoe in the region of the strang- er's hip pocket and the battle was at an end. The vanquished one started across the street where he ran into the clutches of Officer Dan O'Reilly, who was coming up the hill, and in @ very short time was occupying one of the cells in the lookup and this morn ing will answer for his conduct before the borough court. The bystanders say that Jake" showed wonderful skill with his fists and was a hard hitter and would also prove @ credit to a football team.
