GRAIN

CHICAGO, August 6.-Wheat con tnued its downward course owing to renewed selling by commission houses and discouraged holders brought out by weak cables and continuance of favorable weather conditions for the spring sown crop. Sentiment was bear ish all day, although a steadier feeling developed later in consequence of the low temperatures in western Canada, and talk of moderate export in the northwest. September sold between o9iS and 99A and l00M. The market closed easy at & below the final fig ures for the previous day, being 997s.

LABRADOR MOSQUITOES.
Terrible Pest to Travellers and Natives
 In the Northland.

No account of travel in Labrador can be complete without some mention of the terrible pest of mosquitoes. These were always present In immense swarms from the beginning of our trip to the end. and sometimes they made life almost unlearable.
 Nothing could be heard but their eat they were down our throats and in our eyes and faces. and in spite of our head nets and fly dope we were always badly bitten. The natives seemed so mind them almost as much as we did, their remedy being rancid seal oil. am satisfied that were one SO unfortunate as 10 be caught out al night without protection he would be either crazy or dead by morning.
 Our tents were provided with a fine mesh bobbinct inner tent. but some would always find their way inside or cone up from the ground. At times our light so attracted them we went outside to see If it were not raining. iVt Ai' HNOiH''HA AapP'hS VI a'N Ahc' quiioes against the canvas sounded so exactly like rain that it was impossible to tell the difference.
 On many nights had to give up the observation of stars for latitude and longitude because candle could not be kept lit long enough to adjust the artificial horizon, We unfortunately had no chimney. and the mosquitoes swarmed so thckly that without this protection the flame was quickly smothered. There were but few nights cool enough 10 afford us any relief We found that it required tempera. ture within few degrees of actual freezing to subdue them.-Forest and Stream

TARIFF LAW WORKS SMOOTHLY

WASHINGTON, August 6.-lnforma- ton received at the treasury today from New York, Boston and Phladel- phia indicates that the new tariff law IS working with unexpected smooth ness.
 Generally at the beginning of the operation of q new tariff law, matters in the big customs houses are at ''sixes and sevens' for a few days, but no confusion has manifested itself in the administration of the Payne law, it is said.
 Nearly twenty trans Atlantic steam ships which had been bending their ut most efforts in response to orders by wireless to reach New York before the new tariff law went into effect. lost the race at :30 'clock Thursday af terpoon when the custom house closed and the last payment of duty under the old law was registered. Importers, who have merchandise on these boats, will be losers to the extent of between $l00,000 and $200,000.

BOSTON, August 6.-The course of prices today proves conclusively that the reaction of yesterday was but tenn. porary. Our first prices showed over night improvement, which continued throughout the entire session, quietly and steadily. 1t would be hard to name a leader, but Steel common, St. Paul, Reading, Atchson and Republic Steel common were certainly in that class. In the late trading, specialties were taken up, and advanced rapidly. The belief that the tariff bill is actually settled, the continued ease of money and the expectation of very favora' ble crop report next Monday, to say nothing of increased earnings, and in- dustrial developments, are certainly causes for continuation of bullish in terest.'

METAL MARKETS WERE QUIET
FAVORABLE WEATHER CONDI- TIoNs CAUSE GRAINS TO GO
 DOWNWARD

NEW YORK, August 6.--The rise in prices today had the appearance of a fighting in the market from the dip of yesterdays close. There was, in fact. considerable re.buying of stocks sold short by the professional element yesterday on the assumption that the enactment of the tariff law would be followed by movement to realize profits. No such realizing movement developed today and the uncovered bears were promised to cover their short contracts.
 St. Paul rose above l21 for the first time since 1906. There was much dis eussion of the profitable possibilities of traffic on the Pacific coast exten sion system for which large growth is predicted.
 United States Steel's rise to 763s and Union Pacific 's to 2O3 made new high record in prices for those stocks and helped materially to the strong closing tone.
 Bonds were firm. Total sales $5,312,- 000 United States bonds were un- changed.

Mrs. Guilheem understood so well how to improve small deficiency In the bust of her royal mistress by means of stiffencd collars. frills and laces that Elizabeth overwhelmed her with fla vOrs and privileges and finally elevated her to the rank of chief iDspectress of the court linen.
 The fashion introduced by the queen was of course soon followed by all the women of rank. The fad for this new art" finally degenerated into q veritable mania for starching, ironing plating etc. Later special profess ors" of the art of starchinG estab- lished themselves in London, among whom Flemish woman of the name of Dinghen van der Plasse seems to have occupied the highest rank. Those privileged to be initiated by her in the art had to pay no less than f5 for a lesson
