Actions and Words.
The Rams Horn.

The Ram s Horn.
Here's a sentiment worthy to keep in
your mind
AS you travel though life, for it's true
you will find,
That you're not so much valued by what
you may say,
AS by what you may do in practical
way;
For unless you perform what you say
you can do.
Grave doubts will arise that you re hon
est and true.
Though your voice be as sweet as the
song of the birds.
Remember that actions spear louder than
words.
Nor would I discourage the message that
cheers,
Or the prayers. or the blessings of sym
pathy tears;
They are always in order, they help in
their way
To hasten the dawn of millennial
day,
But little more gold sandwiched in
with your prayers
Would Danish more tears and tighten
more cares.
Though your voice be as sweet as the
song of the birds,
Remember that actions speak louder
than words.

New York. April 7.-Evidence was given
today by witness who said he saw the
automobile accident near Paris, France,
last August, which resulted in the deaths
of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Fair before a
referee in a suit instituted by Mrs Fair s
mother, Anna Nelson, and other rela-
tives, to recover from Mrs. Theresa Alice
Oelrichs and Mrs. Virginia Vanderbilt.
sisters Of Mr.. Fair, a large portion of
the Fair estate.
1t Is contended that Mrs. Fair lived at
ter her husband. The suit is expected to
determine also whether an agreement to
settle the estate by the payment OF
$4,000 shall be cancelled
Lucien Mass of Paris. testified that
he witnessed the fatal accident and that
when he reached the scene Mr.. Fair was
absolutely lifeless," but that Mrs. Fair
was breathing. He noticed nervous
contraction of her face and hands.
Asked why he had left the scene Of
the accident before any one else arrived,
he replied;
Because l did not wish to compromise
myself. l wished to give succor, but
found could not My course could have
been traced"
When questioned as to some of his sub
swer on the ground that 1t would tend
to degrade him.
The Fair estate is estimated to be
worth about 0,000 coo If il can be proved
that Mrs. Fair outlived her husband this
sum will go to her relatives, who are
poor.
Immediately after the tragedy the sis
ters Of Fair induced the relatives TO ac-
cept a small sum in settlement of all
claims against the estate.

stand about an interview he had had
with NJ. Picard. a French secret agent.
regarding the accident Mas said he had
refused to tell Picard who was with him
and where he had been when he witness
ed the accident because Mas and his
friend, Moranne, had been to Deauville
with women and did not want their wives
to know about 1t.
When counsel for Mrs. Nelson objected
to the cross examination to what time
Mas boarded a train after witnessing
the accident, opposing counsel said it
was most important as it shows that Mas
was not at the place at all

En-. Princes Grain 1 etter.

Chicago, Dec. 17.-Wheat-A tenden-
cy on the part of Armour to sell wheat
on the small bulge early this morning
checked the advance. Easier feeling
was accentuated to some extent by a
private cable telling OF improved
weather In Argentine and slight dam
age to wheat by recent rains. There
were earlier cables from there of a
bullish character but the Antwerp
market was unchanged. However, the
market was affected by these reports
and small receipts showed considerable
strength until Armour commenced to
offer wheat. There was a better tone
to the late market, largely due to re-
ports of good business. Gables were
of both character and sentiment about
equally divided.
Corn-There was firmness in corn
early with commission houses demand
and small offerings. On the advance
selling by local longs and some COM
mission houses caused slight decline.
but reports of good export demand re-
suited in a rally with prices ruling
around yesterdays close. Trade Is
awakening to the fact that state re-
ports are decidedly bullish and these
coupling with small receipts was a
bullish factor.
Oats-There was only a scalping
trade In oats and not q feature to
the market. Influences were small re-
ceipts, giving the impression that the
crop has been over-e estimated and To-
cal bears are not selling any. Market
inclined to follow wheat.

New York. Dec. 17.-Interest in the
! conference being held in this city by
| leading steel manufacturers of the
! country, to consider trade connections,
was greatly augmented yesterday by
| the announcement of the Iron Age that
the por price for steel billets is being
undercut So ton by independent pro-
| ducers
| Manufacturers all reported more
structural steel had been sold during
the last year than ever before, but be-
cause of building trade strikes a great
deal remains undelivered. Strikes have
interferred with business, but the out
look is brighter Before the meeting
adjourned 1t decided To hold it's next
meeting at Atlantic City on July l.
next year.
II was rumored yesterday that a re-
duction in the price OF steel rails from
SIS to s27 or s26 is contemplated, and
1t is said also that the Rock Island is
in the market for rails only on the
condition that the price for rails be
said would refuse to place any orders
at present price, or even $26. should
that figure be decided on.
The Iron Age in an editorial today
says:
Markets for foundry pig iron are
firmer, SO far as the southern product
is concerned, the minimum price now
being $3.50 for No. 2, Birmingham. at
which some business has been done,
at the principal distributing centers.
This narrows the unusual gap between
prices of southern and northern iron
and gives the latter an opportunity
to more than book urgent orders for
prompt delivery
In the east there is a continued de-
mand for basic pig. sales aggregating
10000 tons, having been made, includ-
ing lot of 5000 tons for New York
state plant, for all OF which $14. deliv-
cred at eastern Pennsylvania steel
works, was realized, thus showing
slight advantage. A corresponding adj
vance in basic pig iron is reported
from Pittsburg. Bessemer pig is quiet
In the steel rail trade little more
business has been done. An anoma-
lous state of affairs developed in light
sections which usually sell at higher
prices than standard sections. but now
are being marketed at s24 to $2S, ac-
cording to weight"
The Crucible Steel Company, which
yesterday passed the dividend on its
preferred stock, dominates in a large
measure the steel billet output Its
attitude toward the steel corporation
is such that its withdrawal from the
billet pool may cause further cuts
in that product.
