Liquidation in December Wheat Hold.

Chicago, Dec. 31.-Liquidation OF
December holdings incidental to the
expiration of that option caused weak

WHEAT-Weak all day with the
exception of short period at the
start. The interest of the traders
centered in December and those who
We're long" on that month were APP
parently willing to dispose of their
holdings at almost any figure. There
We're substantial declines and in the
final minute of trading the price
dropped nearly 3 cents. Talk of in
creased receipts in the northwest and
the report from Argentina estimating
the amount of export wheat at about
last years supply were additional
bearish influences. The close was

.puN,s WEEKLY REVIEW.

New York, Dec. 31.-R. G. Dun and
Company's weekly review of trade TO
morrow will say:
Except for the active holiday trade
indicative of the substantial pros,
perity of the country, there has been
a moderate trade recession usual in
the closing week of the year. The
weather also has retarded distribu.
ton, while the railroad strike caused
some disturbance. The effect of high
cotton caused some caution in the
dry goods trade. But making due al.
lowances for these drawbacks the
year closed with general industrial
and mercantile conditions in excel.
lent shape.
The prospects are bright for active
business in iron and steel. Many
mills in the Pittsburg district will
not observe the new years holiday
on account of the necessity Of prompt
delivery.
Sales of print cloth fabrics are re.
stricted wing to the unwillingness OF
the mills to increase contracts while
cotton is advancing. Cotton goods
houses anticipate an active trade by
the middle of January. The volume
of footwear business is small but
business is expected to resume nor
NAL proportions shortly. Prices are
firm owing to the high cost of ma
terial.

Judge Lawlor of San Francisco is fighting bribery and graft single handed and alone. It has always been a losing fight, or it has been a losing fight since the early convictions of Ruef and Schmitz. but that fact was not then known. and there was a cer- tain glamour and excitement that sus- taned the spirits of the prosecution with which the court has been in more or less evident sympathy
 The election last fall. which was not so much for the selection of can didates as for the determination whether the then almost hopeless prosecution should proceed. declared overwhelmingly against a continuation of the prosecution.
 Judge Lawlor has either not put that interpretation on the election re- turns. or he has determined to disre- gard that verdict and is bending his energies toward the trying out Of all the cases to the last.
 Without prosecuting machinery. it is impossible that anything shall be ac- compiished. It was unlikely that even Heney, with all his skill and enthu- siasm. could have accomplished much. There appears to be nothing to be done but to let San Francisco return to its old ways and follow its old course, until sometime corruption, which is always seething there. will boil over with another hissing and eyes of the world in that direction.

 The spinner twisted her slender threa, As she sat and spun. The earth and the heavens are mine,
 she said And the moon and sun; Into my web the sunlight goes, And the breath of May. And the crimson life of the new-blowr
 rose
 That was born today. The spinner sang in the hush of noon And her song was low; "Ah, morning you pass away too soon You are swift to go. My heart oerflows like brimmine cup
 With its hopes and fears. Love, come and drink the sweetness
 up
 Ere it turn to tears. The spinner looked at the failing sun 'Is it time to rest? My hands are weary, my work is done I have wrought my best I have spun and woven with patient
 eyes
 And with fingers fleet. Loi where the toll of lifetime lies In a winding sheet"
