BroomhalI's Report.

Liverpool Oct. Z. - Wheat market
opened easy and A@$ lower and fol-
lowing the opening advanced A@%.
The weakness in American cables yes
terday had depressing effect at the
immediate start, but this was offset
by private report received here Of
continued dry weather in the northern
provinces of Argentine Later the
market again became heavy and the
advance was lost. The decline was
due to general dullness and very poor
demand for forward shipments. The
forecast is for liberal shipments this
week, and especially from the Black
Sea and prospects for a continuance OF
the same until navigation closes. At
midday the market was dull but
heavy and 3@1k lower than yesterday.
Corn after opening u lower further
declined u. Pressure was due to the
heaviness in America, liberal Argen-
tine shipments, lower offerings of par
cells and weakness in spots, the same
being 159A lower.
Argentine shipments wheat this
week, 11O6,0 600; last week 978, 900;
last year, 100000 Corn this week g.
1770OO; last week, 4, O2s,OO0; last year
2,519,00O.

Chicago Gossip.

Chicago, Oct. Wheat traders said
last night that they are looking for
lots of Argentine news and a nervous
market with Lichstern factor on both
sides. No one knows how he stands
on the market, and he was credited
with both buying and selling. Senti-
ment among the traders was inclined
TO be bullish providing the Argentine
news continues to be unfavorable.
Carrying charges are about as large
as at any time this season, cents
from october to December and 6 cents
from December to May, making 8
cents for seven months, which is
tough proposition for the bulls to go
against, and in any other business but
the grain trade such a handicap would
be discouraging. Bears said that un-
less there is falling Off in receipts
and an increase in shipments, Chicago
will have the largest stocks to carry
through the winter In many years.

Chicago, ILL.,. Oct There
was only moderate demand for cash
wheat here and seaboard reported de-
rnand there quiet. Trade was rather
light all day and mostly all of To-
cal professional scalping character.
The market, after the opening was
lower in sympathy with the decline
in Liverpool later 1t rallied on cables
from the Argentine reporting contin-
uation of drought; however, the
Buenos Ayres market was lower and
this caused a reaction. AS long as we
are in the season of crop scares from
the Argentine it is well to be cautious
in selling short as that country is now
the chief factor in making prices. We
think it safer to buy on the weak
spots and take profits on bulges.

CHANGE AT THE
 ORPHEO TODAY

The Orpheo will have a complete change of program today, but the minstrel maids will still be the attrac- tionl {. New 'costumes, new songs new jokes, new everything but the girls, and they need no newness. The pictures are good and the week end program will equal if not excell the one of the first three days. The Rein field minstrel maids are on the Or pheo book for the following week and promise a clean, up-to-date bill. This company has been playing to crowded houses all week and the more they show the more the people go. Miss Isabelle, who was with the company when they did stunts at For est Park last year, is one of the lead ing ladies and delights the audience with her good acts. All the girls can sing and they introduce number of catchy novelties.

MINISTER THINKS
 ] MILLER INNOCENT
Harrisburg Preacher Criticises Offi. cers sOf the Law, While Lawyer Thinks Jurfes are Sometimes
 Too Easy Upon Criminals
 Letter Causes Comment.

Paragould, Aug. 1.-The publica- tion of letter in a local paper Satur- day from Rev. J. H. Pennock, pastor of the Baptist church at Harrisburg, in which the minister strongly ex- presses the conviction that Charley Miller, who was hung at Harrisburg Friday for the murder of A. Flood, was innocent, and severely arraigning the officers of the law, has caused a great deal of excitement here. The minister was with Miller Friday morn ing and talked with him as being en- tirely innocent of the crime for which he was executed He further cited the fact that Miller had professed re- ligion and that this, taken in connec- tion with the fact that Miller had de- clared himself innocent while facing death on the gallows, raised doubt in the minds of most of the people who had heard Miller speak.
 Rev. MT. Pennock declares that if a pcClC1OA udu DCcu ClICuidLtu duOuS the people of Poinsett county on the day of the execution 90 per cent of them would have signed it for the commutation of Miller's sentence.
 More interest was added to the con- troversy yesterday, when Hon. s. R. Simpson, one of the ablest lawyers of the local bar, and man thoroughly familiar with all the evidence in the Miller trial, came out in a lengthy article, reviewing the testimony and showing most conclusively that Mill ler's execution was not a miscarriage of justice. He deplores the stand talk en by the minister, because it will have tendency to make juries more lenient with criminals in this section, when, in fact, the juries are already too loose in the matter of convictions.
