Chicago, Nov. 14.-Altho prices at Liverpool
were somewhat higher today they failed to re-

consequence were somewhat easier at the open

light and this held the market fairly steady In

CRIME OF 4 MOB.

The report of the special grand jury
at Springfield, Mo-. is a fearful COM
mentary on the work of the mob which
few weeks ago took three negro pris-
oners from Jail and hanged and burned
them, for the finding. after thorough
and dispassionate investigation. is not
only that NO assault was committed on
the white woman, but also that 1t was
absolutely impossible for two of the
three negro victims to have been in the
neighborhood, even II an assault had
teen committed as alleged.
The horrible blupderiis only natural
consequence Of mob violence. False
hood starts rumor. and mere rumor
sets race prejudice and dangerous pas
sions in a blaze. and these forthwith
consume every lawful safeguard which
the wisdom and interest OF civilized
man have set up for getting at the
truth of such matters. Even the court
of Judge Lynch provides some forms
for testing guilt or innocence. The
Springfield case was simply an outburst
Of savagery as criminal as 1t was furi-
Gus.
The murder by torture of innocent
men wrenched by bloodthirsty mob
from the laws custody where they
should have been safe is, OF course, be-
yond reparation, but 1t remains for the
majesty OF the law to be vindicated by
relentless prosecution of the large num-
Der against whom indictments have
been found for activity and leadership
in the frightful crime. In no other
way can there be security in any COM
munity than by maintaining sentiment
for the inviolability OF law.

The Chicago board Of trade will not
have 80 much trouble TO show loss of
grain trade as to induce the transports-
ton companies to restore IT, Origin
ally. when railroads were being ex-
tended westwardiy and northwest
wardly from Chicago, the grain trade
was practically monopolized there, and
Chicago dominated its movement with
a high hand. But that day has gone
by never to return.
The natural advantages and economy
Of new routes opened TO the north
through the head of the great lakes
and to the south to gulf ports have di-
rectly caused enormous decadence of
Chicago's grain trade, most of the
grain in counties in Illinois within a
hundred miles now moving to market
over the latter route The indirect eff
feet has been hardly less serious, for
the competition of the new routes has
compelled the old east and west roads
connecting with Atlantic ports to make
continuous hauls from western eleva-
tors through cut-offs from Chicago.
The real trouble with the Chicago
grain trade arises from manifest des-
tiny. Following the line of least
economic resistance, grain is now be-
ing more and more collected in primary
markets advantageously situated with
reference on one hand to the fields
where 1t is grown and on the other
hand to seaports or milling centers,
where 1t is put in shape for final mar
ket. The conditions inherently require
this result and grain trade and trans
portation the last few years have
simply been rapidly conforming to
them.
Accordingly, we have the notable
development of Omaha as a grain
center of an immense region where
all the great grain carrying routes
north, east and south meet and over
lap. The elemental forces of the bust
ness world are back of the remarkable
adjustments going forward to make a
great assembling and dispatching point
here.
BY no possibility can this tendency
to divert grain from Chicago be ami
hilated or overcome. The utmost ques-
ton that could even be raised would
be practically no more than an issue
between Chicago and nearby cut-offs
with reference to grain moving east
ward to tidewater. and the volume Of
that, relatively to the total grain trade,
is bound steadily to decline.
