FELT HATS RENOVATED.

Hats are even more successfully rem ovated than clothes, because the evid- ence of wear can be removed and the surfaces given the same finish as when new. so if the material is not broken it will take an expert to tell an old hat from a new one when we finish 1t.

NmACAGV GRAIN AND RkODOCE-
 Chicago. March 23.-Uncertainty regard ing the fall sown crop in the Northwest caused some nervousness today in the wheat market. but firm tone developed near the close on buying by shorts. Final, quo- tations on the May delivery were up &c. Corn was ik Q &c higher. Oats were un- changed Provisions were f2A 02bc lower. The wheat market opened weak because of the declines in nearly all of the grain markets fn Europe but prices soon advanc- ed on covering by shorts to point some what above the close of Saturday. Realiz- ing sales then brought about another de- cline During the remainder of the day the market was nervous because of conflict ing reports concerning the condition of the new crop in the Southwest. Demand from shorts became moderately active in the fi- nal half hour and resulted in considerable strength. The close was at the highest point of the day.
 clearances of wheat and flour were equal to 15s.600 bushels.
 The corn market opened weak along with wheat but quickly recovered on reports that country accectances were much smal- Ter. The close was strong with prices al most at the top Local receipts were 2SS cars with nine of contract grade.
 Trade in oats was small and prices were steady all day. The range. was very mar row. E1f
 May opened < @Kc lower at 63B to 5tc, advanced to 54Mc and closed at b4hc.-s of local packers. May pork closed off 20c at SIP. 25 @Si2.27h. Lard was down l2hc at $7.s2h. Ribs were 25c lower at $s.7o.

TiIIman Seeks Information as to
Why Settlers Cannot Buy
Railroad Lands. -.
UNABLE TO PURCHASE THEM.
Senator Fulton Says They Refuse 10
Sell nj the statutory
Price.

washington. Jan. 3l.--Senator Till
man today introduced resolution call
ing upon the president to inform the
senate whether railroads receiving land
grants containing conditions requiring
that such should be sold to actual set
tiers only, and Tor amounts named In
the grants. have violated the terms OF
the grants, and what action has been
taken by the department of justice IN
respect to these matters.
The preamble of the resolution re-
ferred to the railroads Of the Pacific
coast as the ones indicated. and stated
that the department of justice had in
formation concerning the matter. Mr..
kean objected to the immediate con-
Sideration of the resolution. whereupon
Mr.. Tillman said he had discovered the
things he aimed at In his resolution
while on trip In the west last sum-
mer. He was then told that these rail-
roads absolutely refused to comply
with the terms of their grants and
would not sell their land
Senator Fulton said he was familiar
with the matters referred to in this
resolution, and that the road against
which the complaint is aimed Is now a
part of the Southern Pacific system.
Mr.. Tillman said the resolution also
related to the Northern Pacific land
grants
Mr. Fulton continued, saying land
grants made In the '70s were coupled
with the condition that the land should
be sold to actual settlers only at
price not exceeding $3.50 per acre. "A
great deal OF that land" he said, rs
held by the railroad companies. ana
they refused to sell it for $3.50 an acre"
Mr.. Fulton said he believed I'm either
having the terms of the grants COM
piled with or in forcing the companies
to return the land TO the government.
MIR. Hepburn suggested that it has
been customary for the railroads to re-
quire settlers in purchas ng land to
purchase improvements they them
selves had made before the purchase.
and wanted that requirement also in
CURED into.
The consideration of the resolution
was postponed.

coal is the safest and most efficient

Few reulize its value when taken into

Charcoal is remedy that the more

Charcoal sweetens the breath after
smoking, drinking or after eating on

Charcoal effectually clears and inn
