on the subject. he proceeded TO demonstrate the,
fact, doing some steps with agility notwith-
standing the fact that his age was then eighty

been drunkard until he saw some of the finest
men in England go down to their graves as a

MIR. AVERY'S COLLECTING,
HIS Personal RELATIONS WITH THE
GREAT ARTISTS WHOSE ETCHINGS
HE ACQUIRED.

One of the most impressive features of the
markable collection of prints recently presented
by Samuel p. Avery to the New-York Public
Library is the great number of works that bear
personal inscriptions ana memoranda of one
kind and another added to the prints for Mr..
Avery by eminent artists represented in the coll
lection. There is something potent in the sig
nature of a great painter that adds considerably
TO the esteem in which his work is held and
when to the mere autograph word of explana-
ton or phrase is added by the artist the work
to most persons takes on new interest Per

the Interview was satisfactory, and

PHILLIPS is KING
Of the Corn Market Fifty Cents Was
Reached Monday.
BY Associated Press.


Chicago. Nov. 26.-November corn
touched fifty cents today. 1t made an
advance of five cents ibushel, 10 cents
for the week and almost Is cents with
in four weeks. Young Phillips sold
what corn changed hands at that
point. The shorts did the buying that
advanced the market to so cents. The
five cent advance over the close of last
week made the day the notable one so
far for the campaign.
A roar and cheer gave notice of the
half dollar achievement and there
was a flocking towards the already
overcrowded corn pit from all over the
floor. The tiptCp figure was made in
the first hour November starting at
46 cents sold between 46 and so, and
closed at 49 cents
The slight final recession was, like
others which have been experienced
brought about by selling by bull lead
ers. The man with the corner in the
hollow of his hand is apparently not
ready to let it get away from him. All
morning the little corn king stood on
the edge of the pit and watched the
ebb and flow of the battle.
Whenever the clamorous "shorts"
hcwled up the price in face of unre-
sponsive takers he pushed to the front
line and let out more corn. Some
dealers thought that the juvenile look
ing speaker was in bad straits and run.
ming wind up his string. They jump
ed on the market and tried to sell
corn at 471R cents. Phillips turned in
stanty from seller to buyer, from bear
to bull, and snapped up every man who
offered to shade the price he was maxi
ing. The decline stopped at once.
Phillips showed to the corn pit lhat he
was its master; that he could regulate
it at will.
The fellows who tried to get some Of
the corn kings money in the delusion
that he was weakening are now Won
dering where they will get off Friday.
The closing price was 40 cents, the re-
action being due to Phillips buying
1t is significant to some traders that
the firms who are reputed to be at the
mercy of Phillips have not given any
sign of extreme worry. They have
not shown their hands in the pit. They
are watching closely the King of the
Golden Cereal.
There is still some talk of special
trains coming from the country with
corn enough to make good the obliga-
tions to Phillips. To the outsider
there is no sign of the predicted move
ment. The receipts for the day, includ-
ing Sunday, were 900 cars, not more
than 10 per cent graded No 2. Com
pared with the requirements for set
Ting day this is not a drop in the
bucket Advices from the corn belt
are that corn is damp and under grade.
Very little of the new crop has been
taken from the husk. The rain the
past two weeks has stopped outdoor
operations.
The excited market was an unmis
taxable admission in the corn trade
that Phillips has "cinch" on his cor
ner. Phillips conduct today won him
great praise. Few men would have
been able to keep a cool head under
like circumstances. He parted with
300, 900 bushels, about one-tenth of his
holdings He bought 100000 when the
bears tried to drag him off his pedes-
tai. He made 100000 and apparently
he is going to keep settling with the
price around fifty cents.

LIQUOR SEIZED ON SUNDAY.
Wrong Construction of Judge Fogler's
Rolling

The ruling of Judge Fogler on the
two appealed liquor cases against Will
liam Minnehan of BiddefoWl has given
rise to much comment i'll many quar-
ters because it was taken to mean that
an officer cannot legally search dwell
ling house for liquor on Sunday, and
that therefore the keepers of kitchen
bar rooms are rendered immune from
Sunday visits 10y the officers and can
conduct traffic without interference
But attorneys who have been inter
viewed on the subject say this is an en-
tirely wrong construction of the matter.
Judge Fogler III ordering one warrant
quashed, did SO on the ground that no
search could legally be made any day of
the week in a shop or dwelling house,
without warrant. Attorneys say there
is absolutely nothing new i'll this ruling,
as it is a we'll known constitutional law.
In regard to the ruling on the other
warrant, Judge B. F. Cleaves of Bidde-
ford said there was only one new fea-
ture presented. The statute provides
that no search warrants shall be issued
on Sunday for searching dwelling
house unless the officer is satisfied that
the liquor will be consumed or removed
from the premises before the next day.
THE only thing new that l see in the
ruling is that Judge Fogler says the
fact that the officer is satisfied that the
liquor will be consumed or removed I'M
less Immediately seized must be stated
in the warrant, said Judge Cleaves ''Be-
cause the officer in Minnehan'S case did
not state this the warrant was declared
invalid"
George F. Haley gave similar state
ment Of his understandings of the rul-
ing Search for liquor on Sunday
he added. 'Of course you can. Judge
Fogler's ruling means nothing to the
contrary
Judge Cleaves also said that he did
not think Judge Fogler would like to
be interpreted as ruling that no liquor
could be seized in dwelling house on
Sunday. The trouble was that the Off
Ger neglected to put in a statement
which should have appeared.
+. W. Hovey, who argued the case be
fore Judge Fogler, seemed surprised
when told that the report of the ruling
| had aroused much comment. There is
really very little that is new in the de
cisions," he said, land there is no reason
for the officers to fear an increase i'll
the kitchen bar room business. An
officer can proceed against liquorsellers
as he could before, and this ruling
emphasizes the fact that he must do his
work carefully and correctly"
