A campaign for higher prices '
not necessarily an effort to

corner" is recklessly used. 1t !
imply means an attempt to OBJ

very of a commodity than can
e fulfilled. A corner is possible
nly when the "shorts those

If corn for September delivery:
those who have sold it don't

made the promise to deliver the
corn merely on a bet that the
market will go down, expecting |
to buy back their contracts at a
price lower than the one at which
they sold them. However, the
time of delivery arrives. Three
millions of bushels of corn have
been sold; only 100000 can be
delivered. The sellers must buy
back their promises from the
buyer at the best terms they can
make. This is corner. Such
operations are rarely carried to
the full conclusion. The bulls
get scared. There is always the
danger of the full amount OF de-
liveries being made.

EIGHTH u. S. INFANTRY
REGIMENT WITH A RECORD HARD
TO EXCEL.
Part Played in Seminole and Mexican
Wars - Showing in the
Inaugural Parade.

The Sth United States Infantry, which
took a prominent part in the inaugural pa
rade, is one of the regiments of the 'old
army" was organized in 1898 on the north
ern frontier, and its first colonel was Will
lam j. Worth, whose memorial monument
stands over his grave on Broadway and
5th avenue,in New York city,a constant re-
minder to the busy world of today of this
great soldier and his famous regiment
With a record equaled by few other Or
CARNATIONS for acts of gallantry during
the Seminole war and the war with Mexico,
this regiment took active part in the civil
war. Some of the men who were subaIterns
during the Mexican war in the Sth Infan-
try rose to great fame during the rebellion,
although, from one point of view. they were
on the wrong side; for example, Generals
LongStreet and Pickett.
The honora BILE record of the Sth Infantry
during the civil war showed that it was an
organization to be depended upon, and dur
ing the reconstruction period it was on
constant duty in the south. So well and
with such impartial justice did the regi-
ment perform it's duties that men who lived
in the south in those days still speak of
the actions of the Sth Infantry at that
time with hearty approval.
Passing hastily over that portion of the
regiments record which deals with it's ac-
tive part in the Indian campaigns of the
west, its calm attention to duty during the
Chicago fire of 1871 and its tedious guard
duty during the railroad riots of 1894, we
come to the part taken by 1t In making his

sovereign states and of several of the few
surviving territories are in Washington to
witness the inauguration scenes, and par

them were on the floor of the Senate today
during the exercises of swearing in the
new Vice President and the new senators.
The Senate rules governing admission to
the floor which have always been very
rigid, have at all times recognized the right
of governors of commonwealth to appear
on the floor at all times except during
executive sessions. They also represented
their states in the great parade from
the Capitol the seat of power, to the White
House, the seat of authority Some of
them were in command of divisions and
