CHICAGO SHIPPING MONEY.
West Has Plenty of Corn on Hand Just
 Now.

Chicago, September 1S.-Chicago banks are shipping from $1,5O000O to s2.0OO,0OO daily to the country banks of the north and northwest, and south and southwest sections of the country to meet the de- mand of the farmers for actual currency to pay the expenses of harvesting and marketing the grain crop.
 The movement Is in excess Of last years shipments, although the harvest ing season is far from being over. It is estimated that over $S7,OOO.OOO will have to be shipped by Chicago banks. in bills of S5 and s1O and $2O denominations to the farmers of the Mississippi valley before the crops are all put away for the sea- son.
 This large amount of money is not considered an indication of abnormal conditions by local bankers who have kept closely in touch with the situation. Some of them stated that for the first time in four or five years the banks of this city were able to meet the demand for currency which is inevitable at this season, without experiencing any trou- ble.

HENDERSON WILL
 STILL BE SPEAKER
THOUGH HE DECLINES TO MAKE RACE FOR CONGRESS HE WILL ACT UNTIL HIS TERM EXPIRES IN THAT BODY.

Dubuque, la, September 1S.-It is an- nounced tonight that Speaker Henderson does not intend to resign the sreakership at the coming session of congress.
 The statement that Speaker Henderson will not resign the speakership was made by his secretary in reply to a direct question. Speaker Henderson could not be seen tonight and his secretary would say nothing further.
 The republican congressional committee of this district met here today and de- cded to call a convention at Newhamp- ton, la, September 25 to consist of the delegates to the convention which nomi- ated Gel. D. B. Henderson 10 nominate a candidate to succeed him.
 This action was taken after a considera- tiNl of the Iowa election law Before nrtdng hhe members of the committee called upon Colonel Henderson and re- quested Tim to reconsider his withdrawal He declined to do so, stating that his de- cision was hnal.
 Before adjourning the following resoiu- tion was adopted:
 Tt is with deep regret that we find our selves compelled to reconvene the dele gates of this district for the purpose of naming candidate for election to repre- sent this district in the national house of representatives. This is especially true when we realize that the necessity for such action is caused by the refusal of our present member to accept the nomi- nation heretofore rendered him unani- mously. In his declination we feel that we lose an able, capable leader of great worth and national prominence, such as can be attained only by one of sturdy character. unusual natural ability and ripened experience in the field of states manship We part with him as leader with reluctance. While thus compelled to release Speaker Henderson we do so with no feeling that the selection of his successor will be without merit or that there will result any danger as to the result to the republicans of this district in the coming election.

YACHTING SEASON PAU.

There will be no more cruises of the
yacht club this year Some races may
be arranged between the owners of the
third class boats to settle the Roth and
Kaumana cups but the weather at this
time of year is not generally propitious
and the yacht club itself will not bring
forward the question unless a spell of
fair weather prevails. The Gladys and
La Paloma are contemplating a race
to Lahaina but this has been practi-
cally put off until after Christmas, Next
year the club expects to share in the
good times promised. Assessments will
be levied and the club house erected on
the property at Puuloa now belonging
to the club. The present structure will
act as kitchen.

PLENTY OF SNAKES.

well-made and complete member of the
reptilian species. had gone out on a
fishing trip with some friends up in
Arkansas, and we were quartered in a
tent on one of the best lakes in the
southeastern section of the state. 1t
was during the hot season. never
saw so many snakes in all my life as
we found around that lake, and they
were of all sizes, shapes and colors.
The heat was so intense-it was during
a severe drouth of 1SSl-that all the
snakes of that section gathered around
the lake in an effort no doubt, to keep
cool. They would slip down to the wa
ter's elge burrow in the mud and cut
other curious capers because of the
prevailing drouth. Late in the evening
they would take a whirl at swimming,
wriggling out into the lake for some
distance, and then pull back to the
shore again. L mention these facts
merely to show that snakes were plenti-
full in that section. The heat had made
them desperate, but We never anti
cipated any trouble from this source.
I'VE pitched our tent at the head of
the lake and were inclined to gloat
somewhat over the splendid location
we had secured and of the coziness of
our surroundings generally. OF course
we had the usual quantity of stimulat-
