 ed a Great Deal of Attention.

One of the many windows that attracted attention last night, that of William Recklisg, the buggy. harness and saddle dealer at 1911 Second avenue, received spe- cial notice,
 One window was tastily decorated with harness and fancy trapping while another of fine Whitman saddles and brides, said by many horsemen to be the best and most elegant of this character of goods manufactured.
 In each window were hand made flags and coat of arms, arranged of silk by a native Filipino woman and imported from those islands by MT. Reelxling

FUTURE PRICES LOWER

WHEAT AND CORN UNDER
SELLING PRESSURE.
Receipts Are Again Heavy and
Speculative Sentiment Fa-
vors Selling Side.

Grain futures were again on the down
turn. The bulls found little encourage
ment in the bulk of the news, and the
few outside riders received by the COM
m-isslou-houses were on the selling. From
the standpoint of the longs, the weather
indications were Disappointing. Temper
atures were generally higher and the
movement to Western and Northwestern
markets was free. There was some early
buying, but later statistical news caused
a decline. Heavy shipments from the Ar
genuine and weak cables were bearish
factors.
The Modern Miller said: hi movement
continues liberal of winter wheat from
the Southwest and West, principally OF
hard winter. but is small from other sec
tons. The quality OF the Nebraska crop
Is further lowered by too much moisture
and unfavorable weather. Rains have faI-
len in sections where fall blowing yas

In corn the frost scare was regarded as
a thing of the past. Advices from nearly
all sections of the belt showed an i'm
provement in the condition Of the crop,
and traders who had bought in anticipa-
ton OF a weather panic were anxious to
unload. Receipts again were heavy. and
