DO NOT WORK TOO MUCH.
New York Sun.

II have tried working nights. and seven
days in the week, and all that sort OF
thing" said Mr.. Bitterly. with a vague
idea that nature would make an exception
in my case, and that I could do IL all right,
whether anybody else could or not. but I
find it doesn't pay, which is to say that
nature didn't a any exception in my
case. 1t may smile indulgently on me at
the outset OF my breaking Of its established
rules, but II / persist IL gets stern and
makes IL clear to me that / must not violate
its rules. doing this by bringing down my
output, without regard to the number OF
than i could produce in six days work. be-
sides keeping me I'm a state OF perpetual
nervousness and worry.
THE fact Ii that We need q day OF rest.
that no spring is inexhaustible, and IL we

LOCAL GRAIN AND PRODUCE.
Rather Quiet, but Satisfactory,
Week for Mfdsummer.

week LOT M10summeF.
During the week ending Saturday there was a
fair volume Of trade for the midsummer season.
Dry goods are quiet. but very firm in tone. with
a tendency toward higher rather than lower
prices. In groceries there is remarkable steadi-
ness in quotations.. with a strong feeling through
out. Trade has been good and dealers say the
prospect Is very favorable for q continuance of
the same conditions. Country produce has shown
little variation in prices during the week. the
only change noticeable being a weakening in
poultry. owing to much more liberal receipts. On
Commission row the week has not been very
satisfactory. owing in great measure to the hot.
sultry weather which prevailed for some days,
adding to the perishability Of fruits, which made
local customers chary about stocking UP heavily.
The grain movement continues quite heavy, the
receipts Saturday being about $1,000 bushels of
wheat and 5000 of corn. The closing bids on

THANKS AN HONEST FLAGMAN.
Cashier Of Wfndermere Gets $1,000 He
Left or . Train.
Chicago Evening Post.

The cashier Of the Windermere Hotel,
Fifty-sixth street and Cornell avenue, had
an experience Monday which had the most
fortunate ending OF any In his life. And II
ever a certain fagman on the Illinois Cen
trail is In need of recommendations for hon
esty this mar stands ready to say a word In
his behalf.
About noon of that day the cashier of the
hotel left Fffty-seventh street to come dow
the employees of the hotel. He got the
money. and, with 81, 600 In currency and 500
in silver safely stored away in a grip. he
return to the hotel. The satchel was placed
under the seat occupied by the man. who.
until Thirty-seventh street was reached,
had his mind conferred upon the treasure
he carried with him. At Thirty-first street
a physician whom he knew entered the car
and sat beside the cashier. They entered
into earnest conversation and when Fifty
left the car. But the satchel and the money
were left where they had been p~laced-under
The train hardly had disappeared around
a slight curve in the tracks when the loss
was discovered. The cashier almost sank
fright He regained his strength and tele-
phoned Train Dispatcher Dunning, at the
Randolph.street station, OF the loss. He
was told the best thing he could do would
be to wait for the return OF the train and
query the conductors about II. Meantime
the fagman, whose duty keeps him in the
rear of the train, had gone through the car
vacated by the two men. Under the seat
he saw the satchel, and, as there was no
one anywhere near II, he decided IL had
been left by mistake and started 10 carry
out his duty-care for 1t and turn IL in at
the station. He lifted IL and nearly dropped
II again, so heavy was the grip. Then he
investigated and found IL contained money.
He locked II up In the crew closet at the
end of the car and went about his other
work. The train MY went as far as Wood
station platform at Ffty-seventh street. a
pale and trembling man boarded the train.
did anyone find a satchel on this train
going out?" he asked of one OF the conduc-
tors.
The iagman In the rear found a
satchel." was the answer. You might go
back n talk TO him about IT."
This he did, and when he found his prop
erty was safe his strength again almost

Time and the Hour.

Since no one expected much OF The Hague
conference 1t is. perhaps. unnecessary TO
say that IL bids fair to IN as much
as was expected. Something is done. at
least, when such a body meets at all. But
a definite programme for tnsuring peace
to the world still remains an irfdescent
dream. There has been more or less de-
bate concerning the principle OF arbitra-
ton. but IL does not look as II anything
resembling the permanent tribunal pro-
posed by Great Brotain and the United
States were to be established. The War
Lord has objected s-trenuously: and per-
haps he is right enough from his point OF
view. and unfortunately the United States
is In no position to take high moral ground
upon the subject. AS for the exemptio
from capture OF private property at seav
Great Britain has opposed that. This
week the question of armament has come
up. but il Is safe 10 say that IL will not
fare better than the rest The proposal
put forth by Russia for restricting the
military ornaments might possibly be ac-
cepted. but the naval proposal Is less prac-
ticable. Certainly, our own country would
not now assent TO L. In fact. there seems
20 be some obstacle TO the success OF the
conference in every direction, and yet IL
would be rash to say that the gathering
Of the delegates has lone nothing worth
while. Ii has turned the thoughts of the
rulers OF the nations toward peace instead

LACK OF CASH DEMAND
BEAR FORCES swELLED WITH RE-
CRUITs FROM THE BULLS.
Early Firmness I'm Wheat Soon Gave
Way to Depressing News, and
All Markets Declined.

CHICAGO. July 15.-Lack OF cash demand
and favorable weather with heavy receipts
caused a decline in wheat to-day. September
closing &c under yesterday at 72Ad727sc.
Corn and oats closed fractionally lower.
Provisions lost 5q12izc on heavy hog re-
ceipts.
Wheat opened with a show Of frmness 40
sc over yesterday at 1850 for September.
rhe upward impulse was due to reports OF
too much rain in the West and Northwest
for the prosecution Of harvesting. This prop
failed early. and after selling at 1850 1910
September started on a decline from which
there was no rally. Gables were Indifferent.
receipts heavy and man. bears were re-
cruited from yesterdays bull ranks. The
wet weather was principally In the winter
wheat belt. but receipts were heavy enough
to check buying. The cash demand was
light. The Northwest sold wheat In the
local market, talked fine weather and
agreed in the general expectation of an in
crease in the visible supply. Receipts at
primary points were TAG. ~ bushels, against
256. SO last year. Northwest receipts were
GIT cars, as compared with 366 a week ago
and sixty-four a year ago. Local receipts
were fifty-four cars, eight Of contract grade.
A prospective large increase in the visible
supply helped the short sellers. September
declined steadily to 72zc and closed at 72AQ
72%c.
There was considerable selling Of Septem-
Der corn, which opened a shade over yes
terday's close at 34AQ34Ac. Weakness fol-
lowed in sympathy with wheat and the gen.
eral opinion that rains in the corn belt were
favorable to the crop. Receipts were 44
cars. September sold off to SSsqSSAc. and
closed at 33%c.
Oats were firm and a quarter Of a cent
higher at the opening, but declined with the
break in corn and wheat. There was a
fair demand for cash and $1,000 bushels were
marketed here. The first car of new oats
received this year came in to-day. 1t closed
as No. l grade. September sold between
