Constance Percy stood BY the

think she would have wondered why
she did SO, because her aunt had led
a beautiful lite that was full Of good

1t was because Constance had been

"Poor Uncle Ned"
This was voice some fifty yards
away, further up the slope of the
cemetery. Charles Sheppard was
standing at the grave of his favorite
uncle. who had done so much for
him, and whose memory he cherish
sd, an uncle who had lived a good
life and who had enjoyed the
number Of years allotted by the
psalmist. Uncle Ned did not need
the sympathy, but it seemed the
proper thing Tor Charles to say, and
he dutifuily said it.
Presently Charles turned and be-
held Constance Percy, and Uncle
Ned was left to continue his sleep
10 peace. Constance saw him ap-
proachlng and stepped forward.
They met under the big oak tree,
and, after caking, sat down on

the consensus Of opinion among the
manded either SO or 81 cents from the
people who were foolish enough to sell
him corn all the way from GO cents
up.
70 form an estimate of the apparent
prutit by the deal would neccSSitate q
knowledge of the average price at
which the property was bought. This
can never be known unless some time
later Mr. Gates chooses to divulge it.
1t is estimated, however, by close OBJ
servers Of the transaction that Mr..
Gates profit will not exceed $1,5OO,00O.
This amount will be divided up be-
tween ten or Il dozen millionaircs who
were interested in the deal. Mr.. Gates
and his friends have between 10000
and 100000 bushels of cash corn
which they must dispose of before the
corner can be called absolutely settled.
The corner at one time promised
many millions OF profit, and the farm
ers whose well filed cribs line the
tracks of nearly every railroad entering
Chicago are held responsible for the
disappointing ending of the corner.
There were substantial reserves from
the bumper crop of 1900 and the large
yield OF 1901. This corn has been held
for a satisfactory market The farmers
did not begin to take advantage of the
situation until the price of July got to
20 cents, and when it finally reached
90 cents the Chicago market was del
Uged with cash corn.

FAMOUS GATES
OPERATION.
July Price II sOnded by q Quick
Drop of o. Fifteen Cents u
Hushel- timated Profit
Of ,5OO,0OO.

= CHICAGO, ly 16.-The famous
| John w. Gates corner in July corn
came to an abrupt termination when
| it became known that shorts to the
extent of Il good many million bushels
| had effected private settlements with
Harris. Gates & Co. and that the deal
was at an end so far as the steel mag
nate was concerned. The July price
responded to the settlement by Il quick
drop of l1%4 cents, to G5H cents. later
it recovered a fraction and closed at
651a cents. substantially the price Of
the cash article.
just how many bushels were subject
to private settlement will probably
never be known, nor is there much
chance that the identity of the big
fellows in the trade, who doubtless
contributed literally to the fortunes
of Mr.. Gates and the friends associ-
ated with him in the deal, will ever he
positively known. Mr.. Gates is at
present in New York, and Mr.. Scotten,
: manager for the Harris-Gates house,
would admit only the fact of Il settle
mcnt by the outstanding shorts.
No special excitement attended the
premature puncturing of the bubble
by the man whose property it was.
The trade has all along admitted Mr..
Gates was right and also his ability
to do what he pleased with corn, and
if he chose to close the deal couple
of weeks prior to the time at which it
would have ended by limitation there
was no one to say him nay.
Manager Scotten would not discuss
the settlement price This price, how
ever, was not matter OF decided i'll

the knowledge that Monday nights

THE GREENE-GAYNCR CASE.
Notion to Quash IIabeas Corpus
Writs Answered.

Writs Answered.
QUEBEC, July 16.- Messrs. Gaynor
and Greene have filed their answers
to the plotiOns made by counsel for
the United States to quash the writs
OF habeas corpus issued by Judge Car
on on June 20 and 21. Should the
Writs be set aside the extradition pro-
ceedings will be heard on their merits.
Among the reasons set forth by coun-
sci for Greene and Gaynor for deny
ing the motion to quash the writs We're
the following:
That motions and all proceedings in
connection with the demand for their
cxtradition We're not a,thoized by the
United States Of America, which are
entirely strangers in the case.
That no power of attorney nor Gre
dentials from the United States gov
crnment have been filed in the record
by the supposed counsel for the Unit
cd States, although frequently asked
for.
That the present proceedings do not
in any manner conflict with those taxi
en- before Judge Andrews, as previous
to the latter rendering his judgment
the accused had abandoned their writs
of habeas corpus then pending before
Judge Andrews.
That when Marion Erwin made the
complaint upon which the demand Of
extraditon was made before Commits
sioner La Fontaine he rendered HIM
self unworthy Of continuing said pro-
ceedings in his name, as he had offered
the accused to compromise by ADAM
doning the demand of eXtradition on
their payment of Il sum of $50o,OO
That Erwin, with the object of rails
ing public opinion in the United States,
transmitted to Attorney General Knox
report Of the proceedings in this case
very injurious to the administration
and judicial authority of Canada. In
conclusion the accused protested
against Mr.. Erwins conduct and reit-
crate their accusation that he offered
to settle the present case for $500, 900.
