Following the announcement yester-
day in The HeraldR Republican that he
had resigned, comes the news that w.
T. s. Hawk, superintendent of the
eighth district OF the Postal Telegraph
company, with headquarters In Salt
Lake, has been transferred to Chica-
go, where he will be superintendent OF
the sixth district of the western di-
vision, which embraces the majority
Of the cities in Illinois and Indiana.
The eighth district, headquarters for
which have been in Salt Lake, will be
no more, as that territory has been
divided by orders from general head
quarters between the district superin-
tendents at Denver and Seattle.
The business of the Postal Telegraph
Cable company has increased to such
an extent in Illinois and Indiana that
the general management of the COM
pany decided that il was too much for
one superintendent to handle, with the
result that two districts have been
created in those states. The city of
Chicago forms the principal part of
one of the districts, while the other
of cities in these two states outside
Of Chicago. Mr.. Hawk will have charge
of the latter district
The transfer to the sixth district is
decided promotion for Mr.. Hawk, as
there are a great many more stations
charge than are located in the eighth
district which win soon be a thing of
the past
Change Is Surprise.
The change comes as a great sur
prise to Mr.. Hawk, as he had purchased
fine home at the corner of street
and Second avenue, and had intended to
become permanent resident here. He
leaves with feelings of regret.
Mr.. Hawk has been engaged in the
telegraph business ever since 1887 His
first work was in Montana, at Fort
Benton, near Helena, where he was in
the employ of the old Rocky Mountain
Telegraph company, formerly a MILL
tary line, which was acquired by the
Postal about seven years ago. For a
number of years he was superintendent
of the Rocky Mountain Telegraph COM
pany, and on its absorption by the
Postal he was made superintendent of
the district, with headquarters at Hell
ena. A short time after the purchase
by the Postal headquarters were trans
ferred to salt Lake and Mr.. Hawk
came to this city as superintendent.
II. NJ. Robinson of Michigan City,
Ind. who takes the place of Local Man
ager W. W. Morrison of the Postal
company, arrived in Salt Lake last
night prepared to take up the duties
of the office. Mr.. Morrison will leave
soon for DeS Moines, Iowa. where he
will go into business for himself.

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'s Letter.

New York, January 15.-(Special) )- Throughout the decline of the past week, and especially after the market reached 15 cents, the American and con- tinental spinners have been free buyers of the hedged cotton. So long as they can buy this hedged cotton at relative ly so cheap a price, as compared with the unhedged cotton in the south they will do so. It was this hedged cotton that the bulls were long of, as there was no speculative short interest worthy of consideration, and when the bulls sold the spinners had an oppor- tunfty to buy. Today the spinners in England and the continent bought heavily in Liverpool, preventing any severe break there, while here, the spinners' brokers were large buyers all day. The spot houses who bought mo-< than they wanted on the demoralizs- tion last night sold portion of thssS purchases to these spinners' brokers. Tx a few days when the trade has an op- portunity to think, the market will as- sume a natural phase. It Is now ap- parent that the bulls carried cotton to a point where it could not be exported or bought by spinners, and that when spinners did get an opportunity to buy they have done so Now the question is, will they continue to do so when they have the opportunity? And this will govern prices.

Cook Had a Brainstorm.

Cleveland, O., January 15-Dr. F. A. Cooks story of the discovery of the earth's axis was the result of insanity, according to Rev. R. E. Rowe, Episco- pal bishop of Alaska. Addressing an audience at Trinity cathedral tonight Bishop Rowe said both Dr. Cooks re- markable story and Commander R. B.
 Peary's frame of mind upon hearing that story can be readily attributed to the lonesomeness, the grayness and the silence of the north. "All men come from out of the polar circle with their nerves shattered" said the bishop, land in Alaska we send home 50 men annually after the long winter, with their minds completely cracked" :"

FEW CHANGES IN
 WHEAT MARKET Selling Orders Cause Decline
 Early In Session SHORTS RUSH TO COVER Expectation of Large Receipts of Corn and Better Weather Cause a De- cIine-oats are Quiet and
 Provisions Weak.
SHORTS RUSH TO COVER

Chicago, January 15.-Grain prices fell of on liquidation trades today but re- covered almost completely on a rush of shorts to cover. Corn scored net ad- vance, closing A01ac higher than yester- day. Provisions followed the trend of grain, but were not so pronounced on the recovery, closing from 212c to 121sc lower than the final figures yesterday
 The wheat pit was rushed with selling orders at the start. As result prices fell off %@1Ac in the early trading. In- creased receipts and a lessened demand for cash wheat were the moving causes. Prominent interests which had led In sell- ing reversed their tactics at the low point and headed rush of shorts to cover. Speculative support rallied to the advanc- ing market and brought prices nearly up to yesterdays final figures. The close was strong with the range from hc lower to unchanged from last quotations. May, which had showed the greatest fiuctua- ton, finished at s1 .l11k@1 .11%.
 Expectation of larger receipts based on greatly improved transportation condi- tlOnB and fayOraDle weather prospects, precipitated selling of large quantities of corn early. A dip of from ss@151c result ed. Traders, however, soon found them selves oversold and the tide was re- versed.
 Reinstatement by large early sellers contributed strength to the advance The close was strong, A@1hc higher than yes- terdays finals.
 Oats exhibited the general character istics of the trade in the other grains, falling off early on liquidation induced by the downward market in corn and wheat, and later gaining when the selling pres sure was removed and the normal de- mand made itself felt. The range in prices for oats was between ssc and s4c.
 Provisions eased off in the early hours in accord with grain and because of lower prices for live hogs. Later @ moderate demand rallied prices somewhat from the low levels. Pork and lard closed 21s@ 121sc lower than yesterdays final figures Ribs finished practically unchanged from yesterday.
 Cash quotations were as follows:
