variety known as Changing which is
to say that traders were getting out Of
their December deals into later ones.
January opened a shade higher at 7O2sc,
particular demand, but offerings were
light because Of fairly steady cables and
light deliveries on December contracts.
Between 900 and 100000 blu were put
out early. The belief that the December
liQuida ton had about exhausted itself
also tended to hold prices. Later, how
ever, the liberal receipts, the speculative
Guinness and bit of fag-end liquidation
the market steadied on the New York
report of SO loads taken for export, and
The close was only 1sc-down at 7O2s6D7012c.
Elevator interests bought December
against January and MaysaIes. Seaboard
clearances in wheat and -four were equal
to I8;O00 bu. Primary receipts aggregat-

Corn was fairly active and higher
early, but eased off In the end Shorts

cries, $4,000 pu, and light country ac-

satisfied prices eased Oft on the -slaekness
of speculation. Receipts here were 463
cars. May sold between 369sc and 357Sc,
and closed unchanged at 357sQ36c.
Oats were quiet and easy on the deliv-
cry of l O00,000 bu on December con-
tracts, but there was only small trade.
May sold between 23$4c and 235sc, and
closed 7s@Ac lower at 235s Q2334c Re-

Provisions were firm early on light

the contract corporation, inducing Sir

it is added, next sold shares in these
companies to the contract corporal on

GOT A WARM RECEPTION,
Harsh Treatment Accorded ETOrn,On
Elders In HUNGARY

VIENNA, Dec 1.-Advices received
from Temesvar, South Hungary, record
the rough treatment there of two NOR
mon elders, missionaries from Salt Lake
city, Utah. The two elders had hardly
commenced to enunciate their views Of
polygamy when the audience stormed
the platform and elected the pair from
the hall. One Of them was compelled
to run the gauntlet of three hundred irate
citizens armed with sticks, straps. Or
knotted cords and shod with hob-nailed
shoes. He was afterwards stripped to
the waist and thrashed bay half a dozen
matrons of TemesVar. The other Nor
mon was ducked in q horse pond. Final
ly the two elders were rescued by the
police.

Der Of the Massachusetts legisla ture, was
one day arguing against a bill for the
prohibition of oleomargarine. He insisted
that good oleomargarine was better than
bad butter, and fortified his argument
by story Of a gentleman who had in
troducted the substitute without explana-
ton at a luncheon, and who, on asking
his guests TO compare it with the best
butter, also on the table, found them all
selecting the oleomargarine. Suddenly hi
adversary arose, and with the profound

applied?'
