GRAIN MARKETS.

CHICAGO. November 6.-Prices In the
wheat pit on the board OF trade were
inclined to sag during the early trad
ing today, owing to renewed selling oy
local bears. Offerings. however, were not
liberal. The continued heaviness OF the
cash situation in this country was sup
plemented as a bearish influence by the
Ohio crop report, which Indicated an In
creased acreage sown to winter wheat
I'm that state this fall. Prices at the
opening were u lower to y higher. with
December at 1.O1h to LOIS. After touch
ing 1O1%a1.O1%. the December option
sold off to LOIS.
Continuance of clear weather in the
corn belt encouraged renewed hammer
ing of the corn market by bears, which
resulted in slight declines In all deliveries.
December opened unchanged at 5Sh ana
sold of at 5SAa5S%.
Liberal receipts of oats caused moderate
weakness in the market for that grain,
commission houses being fair sellers OF
the December delivery. December opened
unchanged to a shade higher. at 3S1s to
3S7sa39 Later the price touched 3SAa
3Sh.
Trading in provisions was again on a
liberal SCALE lard again leading in the
activity. AS a result Of the general de-
mand the market was strong during early

Sole Motive Is Untenable.

Thus the sole motive upon which the
prosecution hinges is proved TO be un-
tenable. The case against her is SO weak.
in fact. that the opinion that she will be
acquitted Is almost universal. and she in
spires far more sympathy now that she
is fighting for her life and liberty single
handed against such fearful odds than
she did before the trial began.
The absurd Intervention yesterday of
the half-witted youth, Rene Collard is
symptomatic. His concocted confession
of being a participant in the murder i'm
posed upon no one, but his crazy i'm
pulse on behalf of an unfortunate woman
had something chivalrous in it that has
helped the reaction i'm favor of Mime.

ALEXANDRIA, Va, November 6, 1909.
1t is understood that the committee on
finance and police will at a meeting Of the
city council Tuesday evening next recon-
mend that the members of the police de-
partment of this city be furnished with
pistols of a uniform size. This will be
done following a recommendation by the
board of police commissioners. 1t Is re-
garded as more than probable that the
report Of the committee will be adopted.
Following the last annual inspection Of
the members of the department by Mayor
Paff and the members composing the
board of commissioners it was ascertain
ed that some of the pistols of the men,
bers of the force were Anticipated and that
they were not of uniform size.
After the inspection the commissioners
among other things recommended that
the city purchase the members pistols.
Since that time the matter has been in
the hands of the committee, and recently
it was taken up and the recommended
ton of the committee will, 1t is stated.
be based on statements made by a men,
Der of the board who recently appeared
before the committee.
This news will be received with gratifi-
partment. Should the measure be adopted,
1t will be the first time in the history OF
the city that the department has been
furnished with pistols by the city, the po-
lice having always purchased their own
pistols
