relatively. There was at least 12500O BUSH
els of wheat worked here, that amount
being done by this house. New York
again reported a heavy export business,
but from reliable advices received we do
not believe it has amounted to much more
than 10 loads each for the past two days:
Ocean freightS scored another fractional
advance. 1t looks as if the market would
have another turn for the better on the
cash situation. In such an event damage
reports will have more consideration
CORN-Corn steady and firIner. Local,
shorts, notably Patten, were covering
freely. Fine weather and wheat weakness
were against the price early. Clearances
were large, and now that navigation iS
. formally opened stockes here will decrease.
sharply. Receipts continue light. 1t looks
as if corn had reached its lowest level for
the present.
OATS-Oats started easy on fine spring
Wea ather They recovered on the good
cash situation, sales here being 100000
bushels. May keeps at big premium
over July, due to the demand. Receipts,
are light.
PROVISIONS - Provisions have been
firm, even when the grain markets have
been weak, prices about where they left or,
last night 1t has been a changing mar
ket entirely, except that there was long
line of ribs sold by one of the private wire
houses There were 33, 600 hogs, with Zl,-
| 600 estimated for tomorrow Prices were
212@5c lower. The urgent May liquida ton
must be over, as the carrying charges
| show an inclination to become narrower
[ than they were. For this reason we don't
/ look for any decline. J. f. HARRIS.

HORTON.

Horton, April 26.-Superintendent
Dyche of the public schools is meeting
with a good deal of opposition owing
to the fact that he has secured the SER
vices of Senator Mason to deliver the
commencement address at the opera
house next month. The radical Repub-
licans say that they do not care to listen
to a, talk from an anti-expansionist and
the professor is therefore being criti-
cized.
Ed. Fitzsimmons, who has held a po-
sition in the c., r. 1. & P. shops, has
been given a position by J..W. Fitzgig-
gOn who was formerly assistant super
intendent of motive power and equip
ment, but who accepted a better sit
uation with the D. & l.. the first of the
year. Mr.. Fitzsimmons will be fore
man of the shops at Scranton
Horton is on a small boom. There is
not an empty residence in the city nor
a business house unoccupied. Two years
ago there were no other kind.
Miss Bessie Fluke is much better and
it is thought she will soon be able to
take up her work at the shops.
Mr.. and Mrs. J. H. Mitchell left yes
terday for their new home in Indiana.
Bert Howard has rented his house and
will move in the first of the month.
Ford HoVey is able to take his place
at the bank. He has been sick with
pneumonia for the past two weeks.
Cashier George HOVey of the Bank OF
Horton was in Topeka the first of the
week.
