A Day's Gambling.

Chicago, Sept. 25.-September wheat
was again the leading feature on the
board of trade and under the infu-
ence of heavy buying by shorts the
price advanced by jumps and bounds
until gain of sc had been made. Then
there was just as sudden drop, and
the close was unchanged. December
closed &c lower. September corn
closed 1c lower, while December was
unchanged. December oats were sc
higher, with January provisions from

Peace i'm wyoming Region.

Wilkesbarre, Pa, Sept. ga peace
full condition of affairs prevails in the
Wyoming region. Battalions of SOL
diers made tour of the districts where

more men at work than at any time

IS THIS A BIG BLUFF.
Packers Threaten To Make Pure
Creamery Butter,
BUY COWS AND SELL MILK.

Kansas City, Sept 27.-A govern
ment license for the manufacture OF
"process renovated butter has been
issued to Swift G. Co., by the deputy
collector of internal revenue in Kansas
City, Kans The action of Swift & Co.
will be followed by all the other large
manufacturers of butterne and it
means that the war againsC the dairy
men, who are largely responsible for
the passage of the oleo bill in the last
congress, is on.
The packers, while they do not in
tend to quit the manufacture of but
terine, will by the license issued to
them by the government, manufacture
pure cream butter. At the Swift plant
in Kansas City, this butter will be
manufactured in the same building in
which the oleo is prepared, although
a six foot wall will separate the oleo
and real butter departments. This
is required by the oleo law.
BY the terms of the oleo bill the
packers will have to pay only a revenue
of 4 cent per pound on the PURE butter
manufactured.
A reduction in the price is almost
certain, for the packers make no secret
of the fact that the new enterprise has
been started solely for the purpose of
Furnishing the men who tried to put
the oleo out of business.
Just where the packers intend to
get their milk and cream is not gen.
orally known. The dairymen prac-
tically control the milk and cream out
put and it is believed that they would
refuse to sell the product to the pack
ers. The latter, however, evidently
know where they are going to get their
supplies, and it is possible that they
even contemplate buying the mich
COWS and supplying themselves. No
telling, they may start to selling milk
and cream and thereby to put the
dairymen out of business altogether.

Funston on Canteen.

Washington, Sept. 15.-Brig. General
Funston, in his annual report of the
department of the Colorado, declares

report announces deplorable increase
in offenses, particularly in desertion
attributed to the abolition of the can

PACKERS ABANDON SCHEME.
Inventories CT Property And Stocks
Discontinued.

Chicago Sept. 27.-The combination
of the great packing houses of the
country, which has been under con-
sideration and in process of actual
formation for the past six months, has
been abandoned, at least for the pres
ent. The decision not to complete the
combination is due in a large degree to
the attitude of the national admins
tration towards trusts as outlined by
President Roosevelt in his recent
speeches and to the possibility that
in the event of consolidation, con-
gress might remove the tariff on cattle.
1t was learned that final meeting of
the heads of the firms known as the
big four packing houses in Chicago has
been held at which it was agreed to
end all negotiations ut once. This was
followed by an order issued from the
offices of Swift e. Co. that the firms
employees should Immediately discon-
tinue the inventory of property and
stock, which had been ordered and
started for the purpose of tabulating
a report of the financial condition of
the company which was to have been
used as a basis of the division of shares
in the combine.

More Kansas Coal.

of coal has been opened in the northern
part of Ottawa county on small run,
where water has washed down the
surrounding rock and though very
narrow at the surface widens back
ward. Samples show hard polished
surface, clean to the touch and very
like camel coal. Embedded in the
coal, and in much of the surrounding
rock bed, there is mineral deposit

Hard Coal at a Cent a Pound.

New York, Sept 27.-Hard coal is
being sold here at cent pound, or
$50 for short ton. Dealers assert
they can get any price they demand if
they have the anthracite coal. The
"cent pound" coal is being sold only
by the small dealers, who retail it by
the bushel and basket. The larger
dealers declare they are quoting hard
coal at from S11.50 to s14 a ton, but
that they can not supply it even at
those figures. Whatever you can
get" is the slogan of the dealers.

MARKET REPORTS
NEW YORK STOCK MARKET.
Features Of the Days Dealings in All
the Leading Stocks.

New York March II.
Wall street sentiment experienced a
sense of relief when the reports of the
early London market showed that power
full support was accorded the Kaffir mar
ket there, and that very little damage
had resulted elsewhere from the shock of
the capture by the Beers of Gen. Meth :
uen. The revised reports of the output
of gold from the Witwatersrand for Feb
ruary is probably of more real Importance
at this stage of the war. According to
this report by the Transvaal chamber of
mines. 81 ,405 ounces of gold were taken
out during February, compared with TO-
$40 in January. This rate of resumption
of the gold output means much to the
foreign financial world, and Indirectly to
New York, while it is called upon to sup
ply European deficiencies due to the cut
ting off of the South African supply of
gold. The calmness of the London mar
ket led to some covering by shorts. The
news of the deposit at the sub-treasury
of 1.2J0 900 in gold for telegraphic transfer
to San Francisco in connection with the
traction merger there was followed by a
selling movement which threw the mar
ket into irregularity for the rest of the
day. The earlier gains were generally
wiped out by the first selling ON this
news. The market closed heavy in tone
and without animation. Foreign ex-
change rates. which were extra. yester-
day, steadied. today. and the question of
additional gold exports is thereby re-op-
ened. Bonds were rather dull and irreg-
ular. Total sales, par value. $2,9s5,000.
United States bonds were unchanged on

1t has been said that many persons
can make an entire breakfast on a cup
of coffee. 1t is equally true that many
Woodworking women make an entire

sumed that the coffee and tea have lost
none of their potency through adultera-
