WEAKER TONE in GRAINS
TRADING QUIET, WITH PRICES on A
LOWER RANGE
Brief Spells Of Firmness Quickly Ov-
but with Good Demand.

CHICAGO. Sept. 1O.-Grain and provision
markets on the Board of Trade to-day
were rather dull, with prices inclined to
weakness, December wheat closing AG2sc
lower, corn &c lower with oats unchanged
to &c Ic wer Provisions closed with losses
of from 2kc to Sc
Trading in wheat was light and mostly
for local account. Statistics favored the
bears, the Indifferent cables, heavy re-
ceipts at primary points, and liberal in
creases in Bradstreet's total visible supply
more than counterbalancing the effects of
the unsettled weather in the Northwest
and clearances of about 100000 bu. The
market was also affected by the. weakness
in corn and uncertainty as to the gov
eminent report due to-day. December
opened &c to sc lower at 705sc to 707sc, de-
clined to 7015c, firmed up slightly toward
the close, which was 14Q@sc lower, at 1850
7O4c. Primary receipts were 1.6SSOOO bu,
against 100000 a year ago. Minneapolis
and Duluth reported ABS cars, compared
with 2O70 last week and Col cars a year ago.
Local receipts were 269 cars, seven grading

Corn was rather dull with prices tending
to drag. Considerable liquidation occurred.
pending the uncertainty in regard TO the
government report, which was due this
clined to the opinion that the report would
show an Improvement and was therefore
somewhat anxious to dispose of holdings.
December opened sc to 14c lower at 579sc
TO 57&c and under the heavy liquidation
declined to SIC, but toward the end of the
session a firmer feeling developed. The
close was PC lower at 57%c. Receipts were
400 cars with 81 of contract grade.
oats were dull and featureless, trading
being largely for local account. The, ten
dency of the market was toward a lower
level, in sympathy with corn and on
lack of outside support. Fluctuations were
within a narrow range, December selling
between 347sc and 351sc, and closing I'M
changed to 1sc lower at 35c. Receipts were
pa cars.
\ good demand for both lard and ribs
caused provisions to open firm, although
trading was quiet. Later there was consid-
cradle selling of January delivery by a
local packer and prices weakened. Janu-
airy pork closed &c lower at $780, after
ranging between S15.75 and $3.50. Lard was
212c lower at $9.1719c, selling between S9.121z
and $9.22i2 January ribs sold between $50
| (IS.121R and $780, closing PIC lower at $S.15.
Estimated receipts for tomorrow: Wheat,
| 135 cars; corn, 2l0 cars; oats, 135 cars; hogs,

Enforce Law.
or Of the indianapolis Journal:

To the Editor Of the Indianapolis Journal:
The attempted assassination of President
Mckinley has called attention very sharp
" to the lack of law furnishing Anarch-
lists. Doubtless, as n result of this in
vestfgation, the statutes of the United
States and of the several States will be
strengthened where they are now so
evidently weak Such procedure is WELL
but how are the new laws TO be enforced?
The trouble with the government in these
United States. and especially in the States
themselves, is the lax administration of law
Better no law than an unexecuted law
One reason for this is the incompetence of
the majority of the prosecuting attorneys
Many of the bright lights of the Indiana
bar have been States attorneys, but at a
time when they were only talIow dips In
Indiana prosecuting attorneys are elected
and for the briefeSt possible period two
years; all are also paid the munificent
salary or $500 per year. As q result the
prosecuting State Is usually represented
by some young Sprig of a politician. who
spends most of his time and energy in
arranging 10 succeed himself. As a rule
he has neither the ability nor the dsposi-
ton To uphold the majesty of the law
against the efforts of the skilled high
priced lawyers for the defense, to lay that
majesty in the dust.
Now for the remedy. Two changes sug-
gest themselves: First appoint the States
representatives for life; second. elect them
for longer terms, but for one term onIv
In either case pay them reasonable salar-
les III the State was always represented
by strong men the law would soon become
a terror TO evil-dOers.

Gunton's Magazine.

In letter TO the London Times, DR.. FIRE.
mantle. dean of Rdpon, has caused shock
10 English sentiment by pointing out with
alarm that the number OF births in Eng
land is declining. In 1875 the children born
in the United Kingdom were 81 to each 1000
of the population; in 1900 only %. The dean
goes on TO show that at that rate there will
at all; the population will first be arrested
then actually decline and If he continue
his estimate long enough entirely disap-
pear.
This is a great deal like the Malthusian
scare, except in the opposite direction. The
diminution in the number of births per
thousand of the population does not neces-
sarily imply a diminution in the Increase Of
the population. Children may be born in
great numbers and die in squads The real
question In the population problem is not
how many children are born. but how many
children are reared. They would better
never be born than be born into the pesti-
lentisl conditions that insure death TO a
majority OF them under two years of age.
The real question for the dean of RipOn TO
ask is not how many children are born
but what proportion of them grow 10 ma
turity. II those that are born live, il will
be conclusive proof OF improved health and
social welfare among the population. and
whenever the time comes that children
which are born live there will be no fear
about the decline In population. The dean
is evidently alarmed at the wrong end OF
the problens.

DISQUIETED OVER MONEY
wALL-sTREET SENTIMENT Is VERY
MUCH UNSETTLED.
Speculation on Cages Plan to Re-
Iievc the Market-St. Paul Leads
the Days Activities.

NEW YORK, Sept. 1O-There was some
uneasiness reflected in the stock market
to-day over the money outlook, but it
resisted with a degree of success, and was
offset by other factors, the most notable
and effective of which was the gratifying
news of the continued Improvement of
President Mckinley, at Buffalo The mar
ket was palpably artificial 10 a degree, ow-
ing TO the continued influence of the pre-
cautiOnary measures put in force after
the attempted assassination of the Presi-
dent Friday. These consisted of free
buying on recessions, with the sole pur-
pose of stemming the tide of reaction. and
of the lending of money freely to keep
down the rate. While vigorous support
offered the market on any signs of
reaction, it was also true that heavy offer
ings to realize met any advance in prices.
The consequence was a constantly vary
ing movement UP and down, which gave
the market an exceedingly irregular APP
pearance at all times. The closing was
heavy and the extreme advances were
much curtailed, and in some cases entire
~ wiped out. Opinions differed widely as
to the effects which would flow from the
proposals OF Secretary Gage for releas-
ing government funds TO the money mar
ket. 1t is the opinion that banking inter-
ests will be able to command a sufficient
block OF government bonds for offer to
the secretary on terms which he can &C
cept TO protect the money market from any
real crisis. But it is TO be remembered
that the offer for redemption of govern
ment bonds at price fixed near the pres
ent market value which has been standing
since last April, has been responded to
Tor some time past with only a dribble OF
small offerings, of insignifcance on the
money market. The other part of the
secretaryS offer, to increase government
deposits uD 10 the par value of the gov
eminent bonds left with the treasury as
TO hold the bonds and thus diminish the
offerings. There was a hardening ten
dency of sterling exchange to-day also,
with the rather easier rates for money
here and the prospects of additional sup
plies, which carried the intimate that
II must be a substantial need for money
which Will bring gold from abroad. Pay
ments on account % gold deposited at
San Francisco and Seattle, to the amount
of SISS,S35 were made at the subtreasury
to-day, while $4,000 were deposited for
transfer to New Orleans. An early rumor
of an extra dividend on ST. Paul this week,
and later one of a settlement of the
steel strike, were used with effect to sup
port the market, the stocks most imme-
diately affected leading the advance on
each occasion.
Railroad bonds were only moderately ac-
tive and firm. Total sales at par value
were $l,640 200. United States twos and
the new fours advanced Il per cent. each

Treasury Statement.
PRIVATE WIRE ADVICES.
Sentiment Distinctly More Hopeful,
Due to Treasury Action.

Meyer & Kiser's telegram
NEW YORK. Sept. 1O.-The street con-
sidered that the news of to-day was al
most wholly favorable. Nothing could
be more satisfactory than the dispatches
from Buffalo in regard to the Presidents
condition. Rates for money were distinct
ly lower than they were yesterday. The
secretary of the treasury is prepared to
do what he can to relieve the financial sit
uation, and toward the close there were
stories that were believed in well-informed
circles to the effect that the steel strike
was practically settled The secretary of
the treasury has advertised for bids for
so, 000, 600 government bonds other than the
2 per cent. He also has given orders to in
crease the government deposits in national
banks TO the extent of S5000,000 1t is,
however, doubtful whether the increase can
be made, as the necessary bonds TO secure
such deposits are difficult to get. The mar
ket responded literally to the favorable
features referred to above, the whole list
scoring substantial advances which were
only shaded moderately toward the close.
ST. Paul was the leader of the market,
both in respect to activity and strength.
The buying was considered to be of an
to confirm the rumors that the next divi-
dend would be increased. The popular
supposition is that an extra dividend will
be declared and the regular dividend Will
remain unchanged. 1t is believed that
considerable short interest was created in
the market on Saturday last and that it
was the covering of this short interest that
brought about the advances in Atchison and
Union Pacific. Amalg6mated Copper, after
displaying strength during the early part
of the day, sold off on what was thought
to be liquidation by the interests which
supported the stock on Saturday. In fact,
close observers Of the market are of opin-
ion that during the afternoon this sort OF
selling was prevalent throughout the whole
list. and doubts have been created in con-
sequence of the permanence of the upward
movement. Sterling exchange remains
practically unchanged and is still in the
neighborhood of l cent above the gold i'm
porting point.
