Der delivery showing a net gain Of 11sa1A.
Corn was Off q. Oats were V lower and
provisions 21a to IN higher.
The demand for wheat, which caused
the strong tone late in the day. was based
chiefly on the weekly statement Of the
New York banks. which showed a more
satisfactory condition than had been gen.
orally expected. An improved export de-
mand ard liberal shipments from here the
past week helped to strengthen the mar
ket There was an active trade during
the last half Of the session. but the vol
ume OF business early in the day was
very light. Lower cables and q sharp
break in corn were bearish influences that
caused weakness the first part Of the day.
The market closed strong. December

To Refund Money.

Representative Watkins, of LOulsl-
ana, and other Southern congressman
are preparing bills which they Will
soon introduce for the purpose oil
relieving persons who suffered great
loss of property by reason of its con-
fiscation by Federal troops during the
late Civil War. Mr.. Watkins has IN
view particularly general measure
which will cause the distribution OF
a fund of perhaps $1O,OO0,OOO held in
trust by the Treasury, being the pro-
ceeds of certain cotton that was cap
tured and sold. The title to This col
ton did not pass to the United States
with the taking of it from the owners,
but the proceeds of the sale must re-
main in the treasury until some au-
thority is given for its distribution.
Originally there was about $3O,O0G,-
900 in the fund, but part of this has
been paid out under private act.
Senator Money for years has been
urging the passage of some special
measure as the one proposed by Judge
Watkins. but the Senate and House
have never taken action at the same
time, although many favorable reports
have been made on the proposition.

Company Chartered.

The Webster Gas and Oil Company,
Limited, has been chartered at Min
den, with 100000 capital. The COM
pany owns leases on upwards OF 81
900 acres in a promising oil and gas
territory in Webster. The company
expects TO begin operations as soon
as one-fourth of the cost of boring
one well is raised by the sale of de-
velopment stock. This stock will be
offered to Webster parish people. The
remainder of the expense of boring
will be borne by the promoters. For
some time it has been known that in
the northern portion of the parish
excellent surface indications of oil
and gas had been found. Mr.. Davis
and others interested have person
ally visited the scene of the prospec-
i've operations, and finding such fine
indications of oil and gas, went to
work to organize company. They
have now succeeded in organizing a
strong company, with coterie of men
of wide experience and with ample
capital to do full and complete work.

week for the meeting Of the Louisiana
State Teachers Association, which is
to be held in New Orleans, at date
some time in the spring to be fixei
by the executive committee. This
meeting of the public school teachers
in Netw Orleans this spring gives
promise of eclipsing any like meeting
that the teachers Of Louisiana have
ever held. The school officials Of New
Orleans are making preparations for
the entertainment of the teachers and
are taking a great amount Of interest
in the coming gathering. For the past
several years New Oreleans has been
trying to get the teachers meeting
for that city.
This will be the first meeting Of the
Louisiana Teachers Association held
in New Orleans since 1898. About
the same time that the Louisiana
school teachers will gather in New
Orleans that city will entertain the
National kindergarten Association
which will bring noted educators of
both state and nation there. At the
meeting of the executive committee,
of the Louisiana Public School As
sOciation which will be held in Baton
Rouge on Saturday, Dec. IA, the pro-
gram will be partly arranged, and a
committee will be appointed to secure
several noted educators from a dis
tance to deliver addresses to the as
sociation during its New Orleans meet
ing. The exact time of the meeting
will also be decided upon by the as
sociation.

The two former were arrested ana
have been in Jail since the day OF the
murder of Young George Hanson ear

found with his head crushed in, on
Douglas island, and High and the
Montgomery woman were arrested on
suspicion of being connected with the
crime. Since that time the author
tiles have been closely investigating
the ease, but enough evidence to Justl-

a few days ago. What the nature of
that evidence is has not been disclOs-

Worshippers of Gold.

New York.-"The lust for gold ani
the hunger for power have ridden
roughshod over liberty and love and
law, and hung their banners over ev-
cry capital and every mart. The jim
gle of gold sounds even in the laugh
ter of modern society, and the eyes
of the church are jaundiced with ii.
We have become a nation of gold wor-
shippers. l fear that if the Am.ri-
can people in their present spirit were
transplantei to the heaven above.
they would tear up the golden street
in three hours and levy tax upon
the harps of the angels for the ben
eft of American industry"
Thus spoke United States Senator
Robert L. Taylor, of Tennessee, in a
speech on corruption and greed for
gold, at the third annual dinner Of
