Chicago, Feb 2t--The wheat range to-day was

higher. but closed 12c 20 sc lower than Satur-
| day May opened 7SIsc, sold between 7St.c and
7T1sc, and closed at TIC sellers; July closed at
73Izc sellers. The early hrnness was on speeu-
lative advances at Liverpool and London, and In
| sympathy with strength in corn. The decline was
the absence OF export demand here and East,
and sympathy with the closing weakness of the
| coarse grains. The statisti were bearsh; the
visible decreased l6009 bushels. compared with a
decrease last year of 1021 900 bushels. There was
an increase on passage of 600 bushels. World $
shipments 1.177.o00 bushels. compared with
8 ss1 coo bushels last year The strength Of the
futures abroad and the weakness Of the cash bids
were rather incomprehensible; nothing was sold
from here. The seaboard reported only five loads.
Clearances were 2s9.c0o bushels. There is n5 i'm
portant speculative interest in the market, no big
holding. and important short line Everybody
is waiting for the appearance Of an export demand
or the occurrence of some crop damage
Corn early was 1ac higher; but there good
deal Of July selling by Armour, and later in the
day liberal selling Of both May and July by Patten.
May corn early sold $3.50. the best price since
July. but il closed easier. and 1sc under the Satur
day figure May sold al 1850. and at 45s.c and
closed 45s4c; July closed 44asc Receipts were

difference cash corn from the other side that

One Answer for All.


Lancaster, N. Y, March 30th.-Post-
master Remers is still in receipt of
many letters asking if his cure has
held good.
1t will be remembered that some
time ago the particulars of Mr.. Re
mers' case were published in these
columns. He had been very low with
Diabetes. Physicians could do moth
ing to save him and he grew worse
and worse till someone recommended
Dodd's Kidney Pills. A treatment of
this remedy was begun and when eight
boxes had been taken Mr.. Remers
began to see an improvement, which
continued as the treatment proceeded
till he was completely restored.
He has since enjoyed perfect health
and is as robust and able man as any
in Lancaster. Interviewed the other
day he said:
Many people wrote to me when the
story of my case was first printed and
some write to me yet asking if the
cure was only temporary and If the
diabetes has returned. 1 have only one
answer to everybody. Three years ago
l was very low with diabetes. The
best physicians failed to help me and
Dodd's Kidney Pills cured me. 1 am
we'll and strong and have not had the
slightest return of the old trouble"

Insurance Men Arrested.

Topeka, Mar. 2s.-All of the officers
of the Kansas Union Life Insurance
Company were before Judge Hook, of
the federal court to show cause why
they should not be punished for con-
tempt. The complaining witness was
George E. Cole, trustee for the Kansas
Mutual company. He charges that the
officers of the Union Life have swiped
a duplicate list of policyholders of the
Kansas Mutual and also 5000 receipt
slips containing the names of that
many policyholders.
The officers of the Union Life adj
mitted that they had the slips and the
duplicate cards, but declared that they
believed they were entitled to both.
Judge Hook, after hearing testimony
on both sides, held that the cards and
slips belonged to the Kansas Mutual
and gave the officers of the Union Life
just one hour in which to produce
them in court. They produced and
the contempt proceedings were dis
missed

C. Wood Davis Advises Farmers to Stay
In Kansas.

Abilene, Rams, Mar. 3O.-C. Wood
Davis, the statistician and magazine
contributor, will soon give to the gov
eminent through the Kansas senators
a formal complaint against the Cana
dian governments advertising of its
farm lands in the Northwest. Nearly
every county scat paper in Kansas is
carrying this advertising and Mr..
Davis says the crop yields to be ex-
pected are much overestimated while
those of Kansas and Nebraska are in
other advertising placed in the farm
ers' hands deprecated.
mot only is the extent of cultivata-
bic land" he says, ''of the Canadian
Northwest extravagantly exaggerated
in the face of the facts set forth in the
sober reports of the Canadian officials,
but the propagators of these hctions
modestly assert, that the rate of devel-
opment has elsewhere never been
equaled."
Many farmers from Central Kansas
have gone to the Canadian lands in the
last two years, but this season the
emigration is toward Washington and
California

UNCLE SAMNOT A COLLECTOR
Not Guarantee Any State Against
Punishment For Misconduct.
THEY MUST PAY OBLIGATIONS.

Washington, Mar. 26.-The text of
the response of Secretary Hay to the
Argentine note proposing combined
action of American states to resist the
collection of debts by naval force is as
follows:
"Memorandum; without expressing
assent to or dissent from the PROPOSE
tons set forth in the note of the Argen-
tine minister of foreign relations, dated
December 30, 1902, the general position
of the United States in the matter is
indicated in recent messages of the
president.
1.-THE president declared in his mes
sage to congress December 2, 1901,
that by the Monroe Doctrine, we do
not guarantee any state against pun
ishment if it misconducts itself, pro-
vided that punishment does nc: take
the form of acquisition of territory by
any non-American power
''In harmony with the foregoing
language the president announced in
his message of December ., 1902: No
Independent nation in America need
have the slightest fear of aggression
from the United States. 1t behooves
each one to maintain order within it's
own borders and to discharge its just
obligations to foreigners. When this
is done he can rest assured that, oc
they strong or weak they have nothing
to dread from outside interference.

Washington, Mar. 3o.-Secretary
Root has received a dispatch from Gov
ernor Taft, stating that all is quiet
at Surigao. Assistant Chief Taylor
reports to Governor Taft that the
affair can have no political significance
as the leaders were Jail birds and
dishonorably discharged constabulary.
No active members of the constabu-
larry were implicated. He says Clark
attacked the band alone, and was cut
down at once, no one else being in

Decision on Slot Machines.

Topeka, Mar. 30.-Attorner General
Coleman rendered an opinion to the
effect that all slot machines, where
there is any element or chance what
ever in their operation, come under
the ban of the new anti-slot machine
law. This takes in money machines
and machines where money is played
for cigars or other property. 1t also
catches those machines where Il person
is given one cigar with each roll of
the wheel, with chance of getting
two or three more cigars. The only
machines that are not placed in the
prohibited list are the penny gum ma
chimes, penny candy machines, weigh
ing machines and music machines.

Good Wheat Prospects.

Topeka, Mar. 3O.-The fact that
practically not an acre of the large
area sown last fall has been plowed up
for corn or oats is evidence that the
farmers are satisfied with the situation.
acres were plowed up long before this
date. Then the subsoil was dry and
dust blew from the fields until late in
April. Now the wheat fields are wet
on top and the subsoil is soaked from
the heavy rains of last fall. The con-
dition is general.

RELIGIOUS Condition of Enaland.

While the Church of England is in
sisting upon thousands Of schools
maintained from public funds being
converted into preserves for the in
culcation of its particular dogmas, all
churches are losing their hold over
the masses, and the national religion
is becoming a vague agnosticism. Peo-

not alter fact, and nothing is gained
by blinking it-London Truth.
