Corn Corner Ended.

The famous John w. Gates corner in
July corn came to an abrupt termin-
alton when it became known that
shorts to the extent of a 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 magnate was con-
cerned.
The July price responded to the
settlement by a quick drop of 15A
cents to 65Ac. Later it recovered a
fraction and closed at 65ls, substan-
tally the price of the cash article.

MORE ROCK ISLAND LINES.
Will Be One of the Greatest Railroad
Properties in the Country.

New York, Oct. 30.=Important addi-
tiOnal extensions are announced as now
under consideration, and when they are
completed the Rock Island system will
be one of the great railway properties
of the United States. Several important
links have already been decided upon.
The Mexican Central is to be extended
to Acapulco on the Pacific coast and
this IS expected to form very imDor-
tant outlet for the Rock Island. which
is 70 be a close connection of the Mex
lean Central.
The new Rock Island securities will
be listed during the first week in No
vember. Application will be made in
few days. and as the objections have
now been raised, it is believed it will be
favorably acted upon There is one i'm
portant question that has been decided
upon, and announcement of this is ex-
pected soon after the stock is listed The
preferred stock is to be put on divi-
dend basis at once at the full rate of 1
per cent. It is entirely probable a divi-
dend VIII be declared on the new stock
before the end of the year The pre-
ferred is entitled to 4 per cent up to 1909
when it is to be advanced to per cent.
yearly. The bonds. of course, draw in
terest from the time they are issued.
AS to the common stock, the present
prospect is that it will also go on a divi-
dend basis before the end of next year
There is no intention Of declaring a divi-
dend on the Junior stock IN tie immedl-
at future. Earnings are said to be suff1-
Gent, however. to warrant the predie-
ticn, which is made by an official of the
company, that before the end of 1903 the
common stock will be paying not less
than 3 per cent. and perhaps 4 per cent.
In dividends.

ATTACK ON LEHIGH.
Mystery Surrounds Published Charges
Against Financial Management.

New York. Oct. 30.-Wall street was
mystified by the publication of an attack
on the Lehigh Valley railroad which ap-
peared in the shape of an advertisement
in one of the financial newspapers. The
attack was signed by A. E. Cottier, a
stockholder in the Lehigh Valley system.
According to this advertisement the as
sets of the Lehigh Valley railroad are
81, 600 less than its liabilities. Mr.. Cot
tier quotes figures to show that the rail-
road has an actual deficit of SO, SO, 1926 He
finds fault with the Lehigh management.
and particularly criticises it for issuing a
nonterminable 6 per cent obligation, when
other roads are putting out bonds at 315
per cent.
Mr. Cottier when seen tonight declined
at the present time to give his reasons for
the attack. He said that it would all come
out later. He said he simply wanted to get
some facts before the stockholders. but
intimated that he intended to take radical
action at a later day. Mr.. Cottier claims
to be a stockholder of record in the road.

WANTS $500 FOR MARRYING
The Suit of Nebraska Man Against
His Kansas Father-in-Law.

Lincoln, Neb., Oct. 30.-According to
William F. Lang, it was worth 5000 to
marry the daughter of Frank Nutsch OF
Alva, Kan. The father agreed to pay this
he said. and although the contract has
been mislaid he hopes that Justice West
ermann will find that amount due him to-
day. few days ago Lang was tried for
alleged perjury in securing a. divorce from
Ills wife 1t was charged that he had
falsely told the period of his residence in
Lancaster county. The farmers wife said
that Lang was a resident of Washington
county, Kansas and not Nebraska, and
should have begun the action there
Twenty-three witnesses from Kansas
proved to Justice Greene that Lang had
told the truth. Their testimony was to
the effect that when Mr.. Nutsch drove his
newly married son-in-law away from the
farm he came to Lincoln.
Acquitted of the charge of perjury, Mr..
Lang sued Mr.. Nutsch for $685.. In May,
1901 he says he came to an agreement
with Mr.. Nutsch that his marriage with
the daughter, Emma, should enrich him
to the amount of 5000. The ceremony was
performed. The money was not paid. The
written contract has been misplaced, but
the agreement was made, he says.

Will Build North from Topeka.

Fort Scott, Kan, Oct. 30.-The business
men of Fort Scott may not realize it,
said railroad officer yesterday. but the
building of the White River railroad from
Batesville, Ark, to Carthage, Mo, is the
closing up of one or two links in the chain
that will put Fort Scott on a great
through line of the Missouri Pacific be-
tween Omaha, Nebraska, and the great
northwest and the Gulf at New Orleans.
The White River railroad now building
through Yellville, Ark, is to be as near
a per cent grade as it is. possible to make
it. George Gould, in a recent interview at
st. Louis. stated that this line would be
link in great through line from the
north to New Orleans, and that it would
be double tracked and that the grade
would enable the company to haul seventy
loaded freight cars"
The next move by the Missouri Pacific
will be to connect the Fort Scott line
terminating in Topeka with the Central
Branch and Nebraska lines some where
in northern Kansas.
