The trade In wheat was largely Of the
same character as Yesterday. nervous and
active. with traders generally somewhat
skeptical as to the genuine strength Of the
market. The crowd was soon treasured,
however. upon the appearance OF an abun-
dauce of buying orders in the pit. Liver
pool cables were advanced, but as little
reflected the condition here yesterday as

Corn opened strong and maintained its

bears began to wake up. Shorts became
doubtful and covered and again the cash

prices began to advance. Liverpool cables

The death OF ex-speaker Thomas
Brackett Reed. which occurred in
Washington Saturday night, removes
one OF the abisst and most unique of
our national figures l. is no death
bed ,rbute. to speak gently Of The
dead spirit that prompts. Democrats
to join with Republicans in sorrow
over the deatn Of thi man; for in
life, notwithstanding his strong pari-
sanism. he held the friendship and
esteem Of nearly an Democrats with
whom he came in contact.
While Mr.. Reed, both on the floor
Of the house and ss speaker for many
years was one OF the mort formidable
foes with whom Democrats had to
contend. he was, nevertheless, open
in his methods and cordial in his per
sonal bearing. He was sincerely hk-
ed by the leaders Of both parties and
perhaps he numbered among his close
personal friends as many Democrats
o. national renown as Republicans.
No higher tribute could be paid to
the personal qualities OF any man
With It an Mr.. Reed either missed
the political opportunity for which he
most longed, or, else. it had no. yet
arrived. The presidency was the goal
of HIS ambition. but circumstances
placed the late William Mckinley
ahead Of him in the line Of party
formation. and he had to wait. Per-
haps his time would never have come.
After devoting most Of his life to
politics and the pubhc service, Mr.
Reed rurned hts attention, after Civ
ing up the speakership and quitting
congrws, to the practice OF his pro
fession in an effort to acquire com
potency for himself and family. In
this he was successful. stepping at
once into a highly remuneratiye prac-
tice. But even this did not bring
him all that he had hoped for and he
passed away before he had finished
his work.
Like Blaine's, his life. as fun Of
achievement as Il was. fell short OF
what he had designed Suffice it,
howcver that he did write his name
high on the scrolls Of his country's
history and won his way deep INTO
rhe hearts OF those who knew him
best.

There Is much In BoooseYelt rec
ord to justify this distinction
He first becae prominent in national
politics as a New York delegate to the
Republican Notional convention OF
1884. where he very actively opposed
the nomination of Blaine for president
and insisted that the Republican par
ty should require that it's candidates
come up to standard Of purity of
which Blaine had fallen conspicuous
iy short
But It is not Necessary TO bo back
so far TO find Roosevelt making pre-
tensions to political piety
only a few weeks ago in his address
the chamber Of commerce banquet in
New York he said
There are very different kinds Of
success. There is the success that
brings with /. a scared soul-the sue
cess which is achieved by wolfsh
greed and volupial cunning the sue
cess which makes honest men in
dignant or uneasy in its presence. The
other kind of success Is the success
which comes as a reward Of keen in
sight. of sagacity. Of resolution OF ad-
dress. combined with unfinching rec
titude Of behavior public and pri-
vate."
Out of the public addresses of both
Theodore Roosevelt and President
Roosevelt enoug' fuch 'alk could be
collected to make good sized volume.
The following are a few gems that he
has let fall from time to time.
There must be no compromise with
official corruption.
We can not trust those base beings
who treat politics only az game out
Of which to wiring a soiled livelihood
TIE real and dangerour foe is the
corrupt politician.
No an who is corrupt, who can en-
dorse corruption in others, can pos
siblN do his duty to the community"
Bur the man who is now president
is also on record as an exemplar of
of practical politics Of the kind which
he has so often condemned and de
nounced.
When he was governor of New
York he said:
"The public has got TO understand
that politicians are not angels, but
men, and that they must be handed
not as angels, but men"
And here is what President Roose-
welt eaid few days befor e.ection:
Il desire TO zee the Pennypacker
Cthe candidate cf the Quay machine)
elected"
President Roosevelt has permitted
the following opology to be made for
his extension of aid and comfort to
AddiclSs, the exponent and embodi
ment 70 the lowest orde of poU'ica'
tactics, the confessed and unblushing
corruptionist:
MY reason for giving the federal
patronage in Delaware TO Addicks is
than I NUT everywhere recognize the
majo. ity faction, and as the returns
OF the votes showed that the Addicks
Republicans had poled twelve thouS-
and in Delaware while the anti-Ad-
dicks Republicans had polled but s.
600, I had TO countenance the faction
which was in control
A htting commentary upon This
numerical standard OF political duty
decency and morality has been made
b.1 ex Senator Higgins. or Delaware,
the ablest Republican in the state
when he said: President Roosevelt
cannot maintain he lofty position he
holds in the confidence and admira-
tion Of the American people if he re
mains in the embrace OF Addicks."

PROCTOCOL SIGNED.

WASHINGTON, February 15-The
Panama canal protocol which has been
in course Of preparation for several
weeks, at the hands of Dr. Silva, the
Colombian Minister here; Mr.. Herran,
the first secretary of legation, and F..
w. Visits Duran the special repre-
sentative of the Department of Pana-
ma, now stands completed in all essen
tial respects. The protocol has been
prepared in the Spanish language and
Mr.. Herran will undertake its transla-
ton into English.
1t is probable it will not be turned
over to Admiral Walker, chairman of
the Isthmian Canal Commission, be-
fore next Thursday The protocol
consists of about twenty-five articles
and is quite a lengthy document. Adj
miral Walker, it is explained, has had
no part i'm the drawing up of the proto-
col, having decided to leave that mat
ter entirely to the representative Of
the Colombian government and to
avoid any Interference with their work
before it is completed.
DR.. Silva will probably leave Wash
ington i'm a short time for BugOta in
