GRAIN TRADE GOSSIP

Poehler says: There has been a big decline
and naturally good reaction Is to be expected
but with continuation Of fine weather and large
receipts it will be hard to change the present
bearish sentiment and further reaction may be
short lived. The bears are comparing prices
with two and three years ago; they figuring
big crop that will not only force to
export basis but in turn force foreign mar
kets considerably lower than they now With
unfavorable weather any other bull factor
they would likely change their views, but with
their present prestige they doubt will con-
tinue to force the market lower if promising crop
conditions continue.''

Reciprocity That Fails
TO Reciprocate.

to ReciPTocate.
The rice planters Of Louisiana
are calling attention TO The defects
in our reciprocity treaty ratified
some time ago by the Governments,
respectively, of The United States
and Cuba. The Government figures
show that the existing treaty with
Cuba is, as the States pointed ont
AZ the time the treaty was pending,
wholly in the interests of Cuba,
and with but slight corresponding
benefits to American commerce.
It was expected that under the
| provisions of that treaty commercial
intercourse between this country
and Cuba would be greatly stimulat-
ed, and that a preference for
American products would be shown
by Cuban consumers and dealers
in recognition of the great favors
the treaty extended to them. Moth
ing of the sort has happened,
however, as Cuba has increased her
imports from Great Britain and
Germany in a greater ratio than
her imports from us have been
increased. This situation of affairs
is inexplicable to us save upon the
theory of fragrant ingratitude, for
II is certain that our people are
able TO compete successfully in the
matter of quality of goods; prices,
etc, with the countries to which
Cuba has granted the bulk of her
commercial favors.
If we are to have reciprocity with
Cuba il ought TO be that quality
of reciprocity which reciprocates;
whereas if we are to receive moth
ing in return for the valuable trade |
concessions we have made there
ought to be an end to the one-sided I
affair. Representatives of the rice /
interests of Louisiana, which seems /
10 have suffered as a result /
of this reciprocity on paper, are
now in Cuba seeking 10 obtain
certain tariff schedules which will
mitigate the discrimination COM
planned of and assure some real
reciprocity, and it is to be hoped
that some success viii attend their
Efforts.

Appeal for Victim of Accident

"a" appeal is being made to the
Modern Woodmen for helm for
Nelghbor Charles NJ. Shissler a
member of Camp No. iii. Des
MONIES, Iowa, a travelling agent
who, on January 10th, was in Los
Angeles, California, a complete
stranger in that city, without ac-
qualntances or friends.
The story of his accident is
graphically portrayed BY the Los
Angeles Examiner, as follows:
"On Jan. 10th. Shissler was
taking bath in his lodgings on
South Flower street, when the in
Simultaneous water heater exploded.
Either he was struck by hvine
material or rendered unconscious
by the gas; he fell senseless over
the side of the tub with his right
arm and side immersed in the
scalding water.
AS his side cooked in the hot
water he groaned so loudly that
other persons in the house were
attracted to the room. Finally
they broke open the door and drag
ged him forth. 1t was thought he
was fatally scalded, and was at
once taken to the Emergency and
General Hospital.
Shissler was alone in the CITY at
the time of the accident. He had
sold out his book and stationery
store in Des Mcines, and had come
to Los Angeles to locate perma-
nently, his wife intending to follow
him. She was at once notified by
telegraph of the accident and start
ed for Los Angeles at once.
Shissler was identified by but
ton on his coat and was at once
taken in charge by members of the
fraternity. To make a long story
short, Mr.. Shissler has had $500

Government to Experiment
Raising Coach Horses.

To help supply the demand for
prime coach horses, Assistant Sec
retary of Agriculture Hays recently
purchased in Chicago for the horse
breeding experiment station at
Greeley, Colo. the famous stallion
Thunder Cloud, eleven mares and
a number of fine range horses.
The Greeley institution is under
the direction of the Agricultural
department at Washington and the
Government recently appropriated
$50, 600 for the purpose OF expert
menting in breeding an ideal type
of coach horses. This new move on
the part of the Government is said
to be likely to lead to requests from
other livestock interests to branch
out further and establish farms for
breeding other types OF horses as
we'll as for breeding different types
of cattle, hogs and sheep.

Investigation May Be Prolonged.

A Washington correspondent to
the Salt Lake Tribune is response
BILE for the following information
Washington, Feb. 10. The in
vestlgation of the charges against
Senator Reed Snoot has not closed
and will not close for some time to
come. Evidence of almost import
ant character demands that the
committee prolong its inquiry along
lines recently developed and it is
highly probable that sub commit
tee will devote majority part of
the summer recess to the subject.
1t will undoubtedly go to Utah and
follow new lead, which promises
to pan rich dirt.
Within few days the Senate
Committee on Privileges and Elec-
tions will be called together and
the new facts communicated to il.
Only few men know the exact
situation and the evidence the
committee has will be carefully
guarded. This means there will
be no disposition of the case by
this Congress.
Senator Burrows. chairman of
the Committee on Privileges and
Elections. declined to discuss the
situation with the correspondent of
The Tribune this morning. "Just
wait a while, all will yield we'll. "
he said with a significant twinkle,
and this taken in conjunction with
his remarks upon the statehood
