CHICAGO GRAIN MARKET.

CHICAGO, Sept. %. Distant futures
in wheat were lower, while September
again felt the local manipulation and
advanced 1hc. The weakness of the
market here and elsewhere was mainly
in response to the very bearish statis-
tics. Exports for the day were very
large, at 1000 bushels, and new busi-
ness aggregating thrty-two loads was
reported at New York and 100000 bush
els at Duluth. The strike OF the mill
men at Minneapolis was averted which
was also help TO the market The net
loss for the day was light as compared
with Saturdays prices. Including the
days arrivals by rail there was an ag-
gregate of about 100000 bushels, con-
tracted wheat inspected out of private
elevators today
Corn was fairly steady for the distant
months, but slow and easy for Septem-
Der and October. Including the railroad
arrivals there were about 300,0 900 bush
els contract corn received Most of it
was from private elevators There was
an excellent demand for May corn today
from pir traders. who were acting on the
theory that IL was 100 wide q discount
from the December price and was low
enough
Oats were easier all around, but with
the September leading weakness There
was some selling by elevator concerns.
and the stream of contract from private
houses was again large The total was
eighty-two ears standard and fifteen No
2 from private elevators. with twenty
one cars contract in by rail. The vol
ume of trade was rather light.

REPUBLICAN FINANCIERING.

A subscriber ask the CoMMoNER to ex
plain the Getty National bank deal' so
often mentioned of late in connection
with Secretary Cages retirement from
the cabinet The story is a short one,
but extremely interesting, and serves to
show the hold that the great financial
institutions have upon the republican
party. A few years ago the government
sold the New York customs house pro-
perty to the City National bank of that
city for 1926 900, Secretary Gage, by
virtue OF his position, having charge OF
the transaction. No money changed
hands. The bank merely handed the re-
representatives. of the treasury department
a certificate OF deposit for $2,2l5, 900. The
bank retained the money and loaned it
out at the usual rates of interest. The
certificate of deposit being made out for
$50 900 less than the purchase price, the
government retained the title to the pro-
perty. But the bank took possession.
As the government held the title the bank
escaped city, county and state taxes.
And the government, not being ready to
vacate the premises, rented them from
the bank, paying rental of 100000
year. Note the facts carefully: The bank
by not holding the title, escapes paying
SAG, 900 a year in taxes. By giving GER
tificate of deposit tnat bears no interest,
and by buying the property before the
government was ready to vacate it draws
$3.50, 900 year rent. AS an example of
financiering Ton the part of the bank
this, undoubtedly, ranks at the head
Rrvan's CommOner.

CITY OFFICIAL PAPER.
THURSDAY, FEB. 8, 1902
INCREASED WATER RATES.

The HERALD believes the change in
water rates as proposed in the ordinance
that passed the city council for the first
time at the last meeting OF that body to
ne an unwarranted raise of rates upon
these least able to bear it. The ordin-
ance. as amended Saturday night, in
creases the family rate from 81 to $1.25
per month and abolishes the charge OF
Is cents month on bath tubs. AS the
workingman is seldom able to rent a
dwelling with bath room and other con-
viences, it will be readily seen where
the raise of rates will fall. The measure
cannot be said to contain much merit as
a means of increasing the water revenue
were such an increase desirable or nee
cessary, and the rates are now as high
as will be found in any city owning Its
own plant.
But, does the city require more re
venue from the water system? We hold
not. The property is paying hand
somely on the investment at the present
rates. The cash RECEIPTS now exceed
81 900 month, and it is conservative to
estimate the receipts for the current
year at $4,000. Then we have 43 hy
drants, a low rental for which would be
IS a month each, total per annum for
fire service OF 50 $50, making total in
come of $15,5 $50. An outside figure for
cost of operation would be $4,000 leav
ing net profit of over $1l 900 a year
upon an investment of, say, $40, 1000.
While this might not content a private
corporation, doirg business for all there
was in it, we submit that for public
plant, operated for the public good, and
not for profit, the showing is an excell-
ent one, and we trust the members OF
the council will so regard it when the
ordinance comes up for final passage
next Saturday night.
