GRAIN.

Chicago, Oct SO.-The wheat pit
witnessed a repetition of yesterdays
trading, or rather lack of trading, the
market being extremely dull with
prices inclined to weakness. The news
from all sources were bearish to be-
gin with. much needed rains being re-
ported in the west and Australian
crops being estimated at an excess of
12,CO0, 900 bushels of May by a prOmi-
nent concern, and it was this selling
that was largely responsible for the
weak undertone. which prevailed
throughout the greater part of the
session. The st. Louis market showed
a good advance late in the session and
caused a better demand here which re-
suited in a little firmer tone. After
ranging between 1873 and 1880, De-
ecmber closed a shade higher at S03sc.

now a law. Tho Northeast Washington Citi-
Gems Association in common with probably
all the other associations, was unwilling
that the city should pay the railroads the
large sum demanded, but rather than have
the bill fail altogether. and thus retard the
movement which promised to put an end to
the murderous grade crossings. it was I'M
willing that the city should make the finan-
cial sacrifice The opposition to the bill
originated in the East End Suburban Citi-
zens' Association, and it is entitled to what
ever credit or criticism results from the
movement. 1t seems to me that the energy
expended in Opposing the bill, which has
been a law for nearly year, and under
which the railroads are already committed
to expenditures of many millions of dollars
might well be directed in more profitable
direction Right within the jurisdiction of

sHUN DIVORCED PERSONS.
Advice to Catholics From High Au-
thorities of Church

The New York Herald of today says: In
an address on Divorce in Its Practical AS
poets to Catholics delivered yesterday
afternoon by the Rev. DR.. Joseph H. Nc
Mahon before the Catholic Library Asso-
citation, at the Hotel Majestic. the speaker
declared that in the ordinary sense, used
in popular language and in state law, there
is no such thing divorce recognized by
the Catholic Church when the marriage has
been by Catholic or Christian rite and has
been ratified.
He said that seeming violations Of this
rule were continually reported by the news
papers. but that when investigated they
proved invariably to be cases in which
either the newspapers were misinformed or
the priest had bee. deceived.
In his address DIR. Mcmahon said that
owing to the Importance of the subject he
had requested opinions from two we'll
known prelates and he read brief commu-
n!cations which he had received from Car
dinal Gibbons and from Archbishop Farley.
The former, which was signed by the Secre-
tary of Cardinal Gibbons. was follows:
His eminence would say that Catholic
ladies cannot well take upon themselves to
regulate the customs. Of society situated
as they are in this country. Therefore. he
would not say that they should not meet
ings. But he would advise them neither
to invite such people to their social func-
tons nor accept any invitations from Them
to attend THEIRS
The letter from Archbishop Farley was
as follows:
There should be no question among
Catholics as to their attitude toward per-
sons living in open violation of the most
sacred law OF matrimony. Would such
Catholics receive the married wife OF any
man into their family? Would such be
suitable society for their children
The priest pointed out the difference be-
tween the Catholic Church and the Profess
tant Episcopal Church in marriage reguia-
tons. and said that there was much CON-
fusion in the latter. He referred, without
mentioning names, to several recent cases
in society in which the remarked persons
were recognized In certain dioceses and
not in others. He said that no such confil-
sion could exist for Catholics. as the laws
of the church were perfectly clear and I'M
miStakable.

ton follows:
Il have been instructed to write con-
corning our trouble here this season In
the first place, we went out against the
pianer to get control of it, or, in other
words, let it work the same hours as the
stonecutters do here. This was one OF the
resolutions passed at the convention at
Chicago last winter. 1t was to be ma
tonal thing, but up to date only few
branches tried to live up to this resolu-
ton This branch was unfortunate enough
to be the only one to have any trouble on
the head Of it. We did 1t without. you might
say, any funds, and when we asked the ex-
ecutiVe board for a loan we were refused.
In fact. one of the members declared that
we were out only five minutes when we be-
gan to halloo. At any rate. we agreed to
arbitrate the planer question After work
ing few weeks we were locked out for
taking part in sympathetic strike on a
job here with the hoisting engineers.
This lasted two weeks without any as
sistance. comparatively speaking. But at
this stage of the game we got our second
wind and made demand for $3.50 per day.
We have been out for the advance for the
past ten weeks without making a noise to
any person. for fear We might get called
down for being out only Ave minutes. The
employers have been fighting all this time
