TODAY'S MARKET REPORT.
Furnished by the Associated Press to
the State Journal
Chicago. April


WHEAT-Crop reports of a calamitous
character today started wheat steady. The
strength was only momenuary, however,
as more springlike conditions and heavy
receipts in the northwest caused a good
deal of apprehension among longs and the
selling became so heavy that prices quick
" began to decline. May opened SAKE
higher at 72s407sc and sold off to 72Isc.
Covering by shorts at the decline. together
with heavy buying from the~ountry and
demand brought about a rally May, ris-
ing to 727sc. 1t did not hold, however,
there was too much long wheat on the
market and the fresh buyers were not nu-
merous enough to take the places of the
retiring bulls. Under these conditions
May once again slipped off to 72d721sc.
Shipments of 100000 bushels of wheat
from Argentine during the week also had
a weakening influence Chicago received
s. cars, of which 3 graded contract. Min
neapolis and Duluth got 49 cars, COM
pared with 2O9 year ago.
CORNZ7It was scalpers' market in
watch wheat. Receipts were light, 1S1
cars. May ruled a shade lower at 342t
Qzsc.
OATS-The trade in oats was mainly in
July, the near by deliveries being neglect
ed Receipts were 1872 cars. May started
unchanged at 264Q7sc and eased off to
PROFESSIONALLY fluctuations in pro-
visions were slight and the trade was
mostly in the way of changing. May pork
opened unchanged at 1926 and declined to

MOTHER HANGS HERSELF
Because She Couldn't Get Along With
Her Daughter.

St. Louis, April Katie Abner aged
Is, was arrested today on complaint of
her mother that she was incorrigibIe.
Katie told her story at police head
quarters. saying that during the cy-
clone she had fallen into q sewer and
had been nearly killed and the shock
to her nerves caused all of her hair and
eyebrows to fall out, and that she had
been trying to save her money to buy
a wig, but that her mother had taken
the money from her and beaten her at
different times and she had finally run
away from home.
The girl was sent home on a promise
to try and get along more amicably
Shortly after she returned home the
mother hanged herself to a transom
with a clothesline, but was cut down by
the father before she was dead and
will probably recover

DIRECTORS WILL TRAVEL
Penitentiary Board to Buy Binding
Irvine Plant Machinery.

The board of directors of the state
penitentiary will meet at Lansing April
II and transact business pertaining to
day for a junketing tour through the
north and east to purchase machinery
for the binding Irvine plant. A legis-
lative committee visited the penitentiary
at Saltwater, Mimi, and procured in
formation which led to the establish
ment of the plant.
The directors will now make a trip
to the same place to inspect the ma
chinery III use there. Then they will
swing around to the east and purchase
the machinery.
And it is said that some of the per-
sons who oppose this tour, as against
the best interests of public policy, say
that State Auditor Cole will, in the flu
ture as in the past. refuse to issue war
rants to pay for such tours.

TRoUTMAN DECLINED 1T.
Stanley offered a Job to a Topeka
Man Who Would Not Accept It

James A. Troutman some weeks ago
announced, after having been generally
mentioned by the newspapers as a pos
sibility for solicitor for the court of WISH
tatiOn, that he was not and would not
be a candidate for any position under
the administration, and cited as rea-
son the fact that he had decided to pur-
sue the practice of law, the remunera-
ton of which IS more prolific than poll
tics.
Soon thereafter the governor asked
Mr. Troutman if his declaration was
final. Mr.. Troutman said it was, but
yesterday the governor sent to Mr..
Troutman a second inquiry to ascertain
if he would accept the vacancy on the
court of visitation which had been
created by the defamation of Judge
Graves.
Again Mr.. Troutman declined, and
the place went to Mr.. Johnson Of Gar
nett.

JOHNSON SUCCEEDS GRAVES.
Garrett Man Appointed on the Board
of Visitation.

Judge w. A. johnson of Garnett has
been appointed to succeed Judge c. B.
Graves of EmpOria on the court of vi -
itation. This completes the list of APP
pointments and the Republican court
will soon meet and organize.
The governor late yesterday afternoon
decided that he would name a lawyer
who has had judicial experience and Sc
lected Judge Johnson. He has had ex-
perience in the district and appellate
courts. He was appointed for judge of
the southern department court of ap-
peals by Governor Morrill, but was de-
feated for reelection by the present in
cumbent, Manford Schoonover. Mr..
Johnson has lived in Kansas since 1859
He has served four years in the state
senate and is a well known RepublI-
can.
Judge Johnson was considered for the
place by the governor before Judge
Graves was selected

Unless Taylor Riddle resigns his posi-
ton as secretary of the state live stock
sanitary commission a legislative inves-
tigating committee will hold an inquest
over his political remains and he will
be ousted from office.
Mr.. Riddle, by virtue of his position
as chairman of the Populist state cen
trail committee, is a sort of an eye-sore
to the Republicans who want jobs for
their friends, and unless he gets off the
live stock commission he is to be inves-
tigated.
The Republicans attempted to pass a
new law at the last session of the legis-
1ature which would leave Riddle out
of office, but the Populist senate dis
covered the scheme and killed it. Rid
die holds over because he was confirmed
by the senate for a full term. He has
still year to serve.
