OMAHA. Sept. 20, 1910.
Liverpool cables were surprisingly strong,
giving domestic markets firm ana hBher
opening. However, conditions favor tne
bear side, as the visible supply Is large,
primary receipts liberal and the absence OF
milling and export demand continuous.
The action in corn Is better, as local oe-
mand has shown some Improvement. Con
servatiye houses are favoring the bear sioe'
while the present weather conditions exist.
The sharp advance In Liverpool was the
cause of the firmness in wheat although
our advance was not equal to foreign mar,
kets. Sample offerings were ABSORBED
reilly at &c over yesterday
Fine weather was the weakening feature
in corn and while the early trading was
rather firm later in the session the marke'

is, does not constitute the. chief charm

years, are required to perfect such a

Mrs. Widener is known as one of
the beautiful women in the society of

She is of the brunette type, tall, and
noted for the beauty of her gowns and
the grace with which she wears them.

FIGHT FOR FORTUNE
New England Stirred by Ranch
mans Claim to Estate.
Daniel Blake Russell of North Dakota
Says He is Son and Heir to
State Senator's 100000
Property.

Boston, Mass.-All New England
was excited over the remarkable case
in East Cambridge court, where Dan
iel Blake Russell, a western ranch
man, sought to establish his identity
as the long-missing son of former
State Senator Daniel B. Russell OF
MelrOse, and heir to half the $1,000
900 fortune the senator left to Will
liam G. Russell, who, the claimant
says, is his younger brother.
There is a great difference of opin-
ion as to the merits of the case, some
insisting that Russell is an impostor,
trying to obtain a share of the big
estate, while others declare that he
is really the son of the late Senator
Russell, and that his brother dare not
defend his suit in court.
The trial developed new and inter-
esting features at every hearing
The big ranchman from Dickinson
N. d., was identified by an old sweet
heart, Hattie May Keith, and bashfully
admitted his boyhood liking for her,
to the evident glee of his wife, who
was an interested listener and engaged
her husbands old flame in animated
and long conversation during part of
the day.
Lawyer Mason spent considerable
time questioning Russell as to how
many weddings he had attended as
groomsman prior to leaving the town
Of his birth. Every detail of his boy.
hood in Melrose was gone into, and
the plaintiff was always ready with
answers, sometimes so ready and sc
voluminous in detail as to confuse his
questioners.
A sensational episode occurred in
court when Russell faced Mrs. Rous.
seau and three grown children from
Messina, N. Y, who claimed him as
their long-lost son and brother. The
ranchman was telling the attorney fol-
William G. Russell, who, although
lighting the suit, remained out of the
state, how his boyhood home looked.
when the Rousseaus came into the
courtroom. Lawyer Mason paused.

Substitutes for Cotton.

Owing to the high price of cotton
some German textile experts have
been turning their attention to other
fibers that might be used as a substi-
tute for it. Recently spinning COM
pany at Chemnitz has succeeded in
spinning the fiber contained in the
seeds of the kapok, or silk cotton tree
Of the tropics. In it's natural state
this fiber cannot be spun owing to its
extreme brittleness, but it is reported
that Prof. Goldberg of Chemnitz has
found a method of treating it to make
it spinnable, and the yarn is de-
scribed as having peculiarly soft,
silky feeling. The fiber has the ad-
vantage Of being considerably cheaper
than cotton, but no information is at
hand showing the wearing qualities of
fabrics made from kapok yarn.
