THE CHICAGO GRAIN MARKET.
Nearly All the Improvement in
Wheat Goes by the Board.

CHICAGO, July 23-Under the influence
of weakness in coarse grains and fail
ure of Liverpool to respond to our ad-
vance, very nearly all of yesterdays i'm
provement in wheat was lost. There was
a fair rally about noon on good local
buying, but when corn weakened wheat
sympathized and declined sharply, Pri-
mary receipts were large; clearances,
$4,000 bushels. There was nothing re-
ported in the cash line.
Corn opened panicky and weak on news
paper reports of rain in the Missouri Val
ley. The over-bought condition of the
market made it difficult to execute selling
orders. sharp rally followed the early
decline on fairly good local buying. On
predictions of the break in the drought
within forty-eight hours by prominent
weather prophet. the bears took courage
and raided the market, dislodging long
corn in every direction. There was no
cash business. Receipts were SS cars,
with 10 estimated.
Oats opened lower with corn. There was
general execution of stop-loss orders by
commission houses. On the decline the
market received good local support, which
brought about good rally. They closed
easier in sympathy with the late weak
ness in corn. Receipts were l45 cars, with
40 estimated.
Provisions have held fairly steady all
day. There was a little easier feeling
soon after the opening in sympathy with
grain, but soon firmed up on buying OF
lard and ribs by leading packing house:
AT the advance the English packers sold
January lard and ribs. The market closed
steady at slight decline from last night.
Cash trade fair.

The old story of the combination OF the
Mergenthaler Linotype Company with the
Lanston and the Monoline companies has
been revived. this time with much par

ness that might leave little question az
to its correctness except that. as usual,
the Mergenthaler people deny II very posi-

combination or consolidation is that a

Sugar was one of the strong stocks of
the day and one of the most active after
the grangers and other Western securl-
tics. The announcement of the additlonai
SIS. 600 0o0 capital stock to be issued was
considered a bulish argument. The
company will extend its business in Cuba
and Porto Rico with the cash obtained
by the sale. 1t is understood that stock
holders will be given the right to sub
scribe to 20 per cent of their present
holdings of stock at par. The issue is to
half common stock and half preferred:
The rights to common stockholders will
be equal to points at 140, and proper

The announcement that the trust will in

have good effect on the buying OF the

Japanese Nurses.

A word of warning is needed for moth
ers who employ Japanese women as
nurses for their children. During earlier
infancy it makes no difference, but when
child reaches the formative period of
its mind and disposition. which is often
before it is a year ola, the harm is done.
The japanese women are kind and gen.
tie, but their minds are negative, and the
average white child soon learns to DOM
mate its nurse and becomes rude, i'm
polite and selfish, as well as impudent
to its nurse and to its parents The
black "Mommer'' of the South was diff
ferent. for she could check and control
the child, power not possessed by Jap
anese women.-Maui News

Of the Waldorf.

Watching . Game ~ the Biniard-ROom
Of the waldorf
While It is pretty generally known
that there are many clever billiard
and pool players among the women Of
the city. and the skill OF several Of
these is a matter OF gossip in the
social circles in which they move,
there IS but one place where they are
privileged TO play in public, says the
New York Times. This is in the bill
lard room Of the Waldorf, and the ap.
pearance Of a party Of ladies playing
pool with their escorts Is generally a
cause for a display Of rather well-bred
curiosity. Quite recently in a party of
four. two Of whom were ladies' there
was an exhibition that called forth the
manifest approval Of quite a party Of
ladies who were watching the game.
One OF the players was a miss who was
hardly more than twenty. neatly gown
ed. and with her hair dressed in the
severe style of the ancient Greeks that
artists so much admire. AS the game
progressed il became her turn to break
the balls. Il was a game Of fifty points
and she announced her intention Of
pocketing a named ball in the upper
left hand corner pocket The shot was
true. the bali fell into the designated
pocket. and a second fell in the side
pocket. The break was a good one.
and then one after another she drove
the balls into the pockets until there
was but one left. This was in a bad
spot so that the only possible shot
was a side pocket after playing twice
across the table Nothing daunted. the
miss called the shot. played deliber-
ately. and made 1t as cleverly as De
Orc conld have done She had cleaned
the table without "a miss and as the
last shot was made the throng watch
ing her broke into applause in spite
of themselves as a recognition due the
young woman with whom they had no
acquaintance Such as knew her per
sonally OF course congratulated her.
The player was debutante Of the
Chicago season. moving Ia the most ex-
elusive circles. and the daughter Of one
OF the most daring operators on the
Board Of Trade. a man who counts his
wealth in the millions and whose name
commands respect la the highest busi-
ness circles

Then Hollister went to sleep and
dreamed that his Law books came down

golden imps and danced a minuet
around him Only on each golden
body, in lieu Of a head, a mammoth
Marechal Mel was perched. and as
they passed, each imp seemed to pause

looked upon her with more covetous
eyes than ever he had given to the

solved to hazard his fate while that
alluring look met his gaze.
When Hollister saw his roses on her
breast. his smOuldering rage dimin-
ished and love seemed. Just then. the
only guerdon worth striving for. But
Croesus hovered about her and she let
