September futures as compared with
a week ago. AS prices are now within
about &c per bushel of the low point
on this crop we believe corn purchased
on this break will show a profit to the
purchaser who holds on from to 10
cents per bushel.
Producers are not going to ship corn
at prices that will net 40 cents or less
on the farm when they can realize from
8 to 10 cents per bushel more by feed
ing it. While hog receipts continue
liberal. prices are well maintained and
on an average are selling for from 53z
to 552 cents per pound at the principal
packing centers. Our advice on corn
is to purchase it, margin it sufficiently
to see it through in case of a temper
airy sharp break and double up your
line on a fluctuation of lie per busheI
either way from the price at which you
made your first purchase.
Oats-There is little to be said of the
oats market except that exceptionally
favorably weather conditions have had
more bearing en- this market than
either on wheat or corn. Reports gen
orally are to the effect that a great
deal of seeding has been done under
favorable conditions and the prospects
are for a large and early harvest. Both
the May and July futures made new
low records this week and tOday's clos
ing prices show a decline of 1sc per
bushel on the may future and 1 1-16 on
the July.
PROVISIONS best evidence
that we have to offer that the pro-
vision market is in an exceptionally
healthy condition is that in the face
of d decline of &c per bushel in corn
provisions not only held their own but
show a slight advance as compared
with a week ago. The market was
quite active at times and the large
packers supported the market and
quickly absorbed all offerings and
will probably continue to do SO as
long as futures are selling for less
than the packer can produce them for,
and which is the case at present. We
still feel very friendly to the long side
of the provision market and strongly
recommend the purchase of the full
line giving July ribs the preference.
AS ribs can be carried on such rea-
sonable margins we believe that every
dollar invested in them will show the
investor from $50 to 800 per cent on
the Investment in ninety days or less.

GINGER IS THEIR Triple
Victims of the Habit Become PitiabIe
Wrecks in Time.

The taking of ginger, in the form of
essence or strong tfncture, is revealed
by a medical man as a growing form
of inebriety both in this country and
America.
As it's alcoholic strength is about
double that of whisky or brandy, the
deIeterious results of excessive indulg-
ence can be imagined.
There is one recorded case in which
the daily dose of victim of ginger
ism was increased from ten drops to
a pint in the course of three years.
Though the habit is more practiced
in the United States than in England,
there are mum berS of chemists in Lon
don who admit that they have regu-
lar customers for the pungent essence
who buy comparatively large guam
titles every week.
The cause of the habit is nearly
always the same "Gingerists'' are
people with weary brains and dis
ordered stomachs who seek palliation
of the results of overwork. They
know that such drugs as morphia,
choral, cocaine and chloroform are
accumuIative in their effect upon the
ginger was the homely remedy of their
youth for stomach troubles.
It seems incredible. but it If a fact,
that from the taking of a few drops
of this powerful carminative for in
digestion a "gingerist" will grow into
the habit of taking large doses, as a
tonic, a sedative and a palliative.
So far inquiries show that women
are as much addicted to "gingerism'
as men, but the actual victims are
difficult to trace, as essence of ginger
is easily purchasable in any chemists
shop by child or grown-up person.
tsIt must be a very vitiated taste
that can endure large doses of tine
ture of ginger" said a wholesale
chemist. "But, of course. the same
can be said of most violently acting
drugs. Once there is a physical de-
mand created for particular stimu-
liant the palate is disregarded. It is
the result which is looked forward to,
not the immediate impression. In this
connection at least the ordinary alco-
holic drinker is more sane than the
morphia taker or the 'gingerist.' He
may put that in his mouth which
steals away his brains, but at least he
gets some physical sensation of pleas
ure in the operation. 'Gingerism' is a.
depraved form of drugging."
The result of the practice seems to
be a negation of the results aimed at
A doctor said yesterday that this form
of fnebriety, after giving relief at
first, completely disorders the stomach

First Stop VIII Be at Vinita.
Indian Territory.

Washington, April the president
will leave Washington upon his visit
to Texas and for a hunting trip in
Colorado next Monday Upon that
Domingo and Morales will be put
aside. The nations chief executive
will turn his attention to dinner and
rear platform oratOrY, and to noun
tain lines and grizzly bears.
Detailed itinerary is not yet COM
plete. 1t viii be announced by Pri-
vate Secretary Loeb on Sunday after
noon.
AS now planned. the president will
arrive at st. Louis at o'clock on the
evening of Tuesday. He will travel
from Louisville to St. Louis over the
yards his car will be Immediately
switche dto the Missouri Kansas &
Texas tracks. and he will start for the
Southwest.
His first stop probably will be at
Vinita, the next Nuskogee, the next
Durant and then Atoka; thence he will
go on into Texas.
After his speech at the reunion Of
the Rough Riders at San Antonio he
will proceed at once upon his hunting
tour.
AS to results with his rifle, the out
side world is to be dependent for in
formation upon Mr.. Loeb. The pri-
vate secretary will be stationed in a
private car at the nearest railroad
point at one end of a field telegraph
wire. At the other end will be the
president shooting bears and lions.
1t is understood that as one purpose
of the outing the president desires to
reduce his weight somewhat. Boxing,
riding and even jiu-jitsu have not pre-
vented an increase of avoirduDois dur
ing the winer months

Banquet s25 Per Plate.
Dallas, Tex, April 1t is learned
that the first person to reply to the
committee and accept an invitation to
the banquet to be given to President
Roosevelt on April was former Gov
ernor James S. Hogg.
1t is also learned that Colonel Tom
Campbell, State Railroad Commits
sioner O. B. Colquitt and former At
tOrney General c. K. Bell, the three
ammo Jnce1 Democratic candidates for
governor next year, have also accepted
invitations.
There is much i'll feeling among To-
cal Republicans because of the prcmi-
nence given to Democrats, and be-
cause of the high price of the banquet
which is SIS per plate.

BLEW OFF HIS FEET.
Bomb Exploded Under Police Commits
sioner at LODI.

LODI. Russian Poland. April Police
Commissioner SzabaIovicz, of the Sec
ond district was seriously injured to-
day by a bomb which was thrown at
him in the street.
The police commissioner had been
summoned by telephone to come to the
office of chief of police and started on
foot followed by a policeman. The for
mer noticed at the corner of Konstan-
t1noWSh and ZaWarski streets a poorly
clad man carrying a basket. AS SEA-
bolOVicz approached the man suddenly
hurled a bomb which exploded with ter
rife force, blowing off the commission
erS feet and severely Wounding him IN
the breast. It is feared his injuries will
prove fatal
The force OF the explosion is judg-
able by the fact that It tore a hole in
the ground two feet deep and u feet
in circumference. The accompanying
policeman drew his sword and wound
ed the commissioners asSailant on the
head. When the prisoner was searched
a loaded revolver and some cartridges
were found in his pockets. He is re-
ported to be dying from the sword cuts
received. The explosion was heard
about five miles away. All the windows
in the neighborhood were shattered.
People in adjoining houses were thrown
to the floor. Szabolovicz is hated by
the socialists. He is charged with kill
ing a socialist during the disturbances
here in December last.

the currency was concerned, stood for
the Republican idea of a protective
tariff, and of course he was made
chairman of ways and means. He
took William Mckinley for his lieu
tenant, and the relations existing be-
tween them were much like those be-
tween Pitt and Canning, or Fox and
Grey. When Kelley left the stage his
mantle fell on the young man from
Ohio"
This brings a. Kansan into the mat
ter Dudley C. Haskell had entered the
house of representatives in 1877. Here
he served until his death in December,
1888. Haskell went on the committee on
ways and means early in his service.
He was at one time ahead of William
Mckinley on that committee. The Post
writer makes a mistake in asserting
that ''Pig-Iron" Kelley, chairman of
ways and means under Keller made
Mckinley his lieutenant. Haskell was
Kelley's lieutenant until his death, and
was succeeded in that honor by 1IcKin-
ley. The latter made his fame by the
tariff bill which bore his name, and
thereby became president. The tariff
fight of 1888, one of the most arduous
in history, killed both Kelley and Has
kell, and made Mckinley.
Haskell was the first Kansan to serve
on the great committee Of ways and
means. Chester I. Long was the sec
ond; and Charles Curtis is the third.

WHEAT - Continued favorable
weather for the growing crop, gem
orally bearish sentiment, and liberal
short selling were the principal fea-
lures of this weeks market. AS a
result the market was a weak and
also nervous one, with occasional
rallies due to purchases by shorts
who were taking profits by buying in
their short sales. Continued juggling
of the May future keeps traders guess
ing, but the manipulation of the price
of the May future had little or no
effect on July or September. A COM
parfson of today's prices with those
of a week ago show May wheat n
per buShel higher, with July and Sep
TENDER IS and 13sc. respectively,
lower. July wheat closed today at
lac per bushel below the high point of
about six weeks ago, and is now sell
ing at a discount of 25c per bushel
under the May price. We believe this
discount too great, and owing to the
short side of the market having be-
come so universally popular it will
be a surprise to US if it does not ma
terialize in the near future that the
market is heavily oVersold and an
advance of several cents per busheI
take place, due to shorts covering.
We believe that July wheat around
soc and September around 85c pur-
chase. It is a question whether suffi-
cient new wheat will arrive during
July to enable the short sellers to fill
there will, as in the first place the
big price that Minneapolis is bidding
for wheat for July delivery will at
tract all the hard wheat to that mar
ket until such time as their require
ments are fully supplied and it pays
better to ship elsewhere Further
more, the farmer has been getting
over 81 a bushel for wheat at his sta
ton for over a year, and 1t is hardly
reasonable to suppose that he Will
rush his wheat to market during the
first month of the crop movement at
Toe per bushel or less delivered in
Chicago than he has been getting for
it at home. We cannot recall a single
instance where a short seller made
money by heavily discounting futures
except in the case of a corner, but
as there is certainly no indication Of
any corner as cash wheat is selling
over the price of the future. It is our
opinion that wheat that can be deliv-
cred during July will go direct to the
mills and this demand will have to be
filed up before the Chicago market
can expect sufficient receipts to help
out the short sellers.
We believe that the short seller who
discounts the future market Z5c to
soc per bushel on favorable weather
conditions is very apt to come to
grief, as weather conditions are very
unreliable and may change most any
