Iy, but Close Only Easy.

CHICAGO, March 12.-Dullness prevailed
in the grain pits to-day. and after holding
fairly steady the greater part of the session
wheat closed weak, with May ss@1zc lower.
Corn was sc lower. but oats were 1sQAc

changed to 15c lower
Wheat opened firm on higher cables and
colder weather in the Northwest, with May
unchanged to sc higher at 75ssG751sc. The
strong close at Paris caused a fair amount
of buying, and the price advanced to 75Ac,
but with the light trade and with no es-
pecial demand from foreigners the market
eased off. Just before the close there was
general selling of May. and the price broke
to 747sc. Final figures were at 747sq75c,
loss of ssdkc. Clearances of wheat and
flour were equal to $4,000 bu. Primary re-
ceipts were 434.SOO blu, compared with $4,000

Trading in corn was dull and prices ruled
about steady. No outside business Of any
Importance developed, and local traders
showed little disposition to deal one way
or the other, all waiting for some Of the
leaders to show their hand. Predictions OF
colder weather induced some selling early
and the market eased a little, but remained
comparatively steady the rest of the ses-
sion. The close was 1sc lower at 47lsQ47asc,
after ranging between Also and 47a4c. Re-
ceipts were 237 cars, none Of contract

THE TOBACCO TAG BROKER.
One Industry Depending on Con-
sumption OF the Weed.
New York Commercial.

New York Commercial.
A curious yet profitable industry has
been developed by the system of prizes
offered by the tobacco combine or trust.
1t is wonderful what inducements are Of
fered to consumers of the fragrant Indian
weed that Sir Walter Raleigh introduced
at the court Of Queen Elizabeth TO persuade
them to hurry and burn cigars.
The consumption Of tobacco is made de-
lightful by surrounding it with soothing
accessories. The plain man buys his cigar
and bites the end of it, strikes a match
on the diverse side of his right trousers
leg-and that is the beginning of the end.
But he Is only one of many: the average
smoker Is not plain man. Many of the
habit. You can pick out the new arrival
in this class in the street any day at the
luncheon hour; He walks along with head
bent, in moody stride, looking neither to
right nor left, his teeth gripping soundly
a short-stemmed briarwood. That youths
room or den, as he terms it, is lined with
pretty things to remind him that he is a
postgraduate in the fine art of devotion
are match safes, ash trays, a row of we'll
seasoned pipes, with one or two meer-
schaums in process of coloring; here is a
coy corner In yellow and terra Gotta with
pillows and pictures and what not. All!
This is all before the day of the tobacco
heart" after two decades there will be
cigar and constant New Year resolution
Jan. L and at intervals.
But the premium tag broker! The COM
pine gives with every purchase so many
paper checks. These, in prescribed num-
bers, can obtain for the holder one of a
thousand or more articles Of common use.
Twenty-Five will pay for collar button.
gold plated. So it goes up the scale to
10000, which brings the possessor a pha-
eton. Thousands of these tags are dis
tributed daily to purchasers of tobacco
and cigars. Some throw them away, some
save for prize, some sell them
And thus has sprung up the busineSs of
the broker. These tags may be exchanged
for cash; tags may be purchased for cash.
man collects SEQ. he buys that many
more, turns them in at cigar store and
gets the rug or watch or overcoat or wag-
on he wanted. This business attracted the
attention of the federal authorities but
representatives OF the tobacco dealers say
there Is no lottery about it, 1t is merely
stimulant TO trade. You buy so much
tobacco; you are given a rebate on your
purchase price in the shape of a small
paper check. This. in numbers you can
convert into something you may like i'm

For the week thus far the receipts or cattle have

600 compared with the same time last week and
over LOO compared with the corresponding time
year ago. The receipts to-day were about 400
larger than a week ago and 200 larger than a

were represented, and there was also the usual
scarcity of strictly choice kinds In their class

market was not really active. The tendency

kinds very satisfactory clearance was made
Occasional sales OF steers were made at an adj
vance OF 1oc over prices offered for equal kinds
yesterday. and 1t is also true that In isolated
cases sellers believed they had to accept a shade
lower prices. Therefore the market was irreg-

In his day Frederick Douglass a bright

negroes. Seventeen years ago he said of
the future OF the negro: He will not be ex-
patriated nor annihilated, nor will he for
ever remain a separate and distinct race
from the people around him, but he will be
absorbed. assimilated. ara will only appear
finally, the Phoenicians now appear on

the wisdom OF such blending. IL Ii comes

father to my thought. To such would
say look at the facts. 1t is Obvious to
common sense that there Is no need of the
passage Of laws or the adoption of other
devices to prevent what is in itself impos-
sible." Not a few latter-day saints have
taken their cue from Douglass.
