Newsboys, Sucking Lemons

Chorus In Church

(By United Press Leased Wire.)
SPOKANE, Jan. 22.-Seven
bright newslboys, each carrying
two juicy lemons, started small
riot in the First Baptist church of
Spokane, where Rev. ]. w. Krar-

by having the congregation whistle
the airs of the religious hymns

hymn, IL Need Thee Every Hour"

visitors puckered their lips acd

stationed at places of vantage,
brought forth the lemons and lit

EVERYONE HUSTLES
 ON MORRIS AvENVE Wholesale Men Are Almost Swamped With Business DUE TO HOLIDAY RUSH The Number of Chickens and Turkeys Reaching Market Is Daily Increas-
 ing and Demand Enormous.
 Prices Remain steady

Nothing new was reported in the mar kets along Morris avenue yesterday other than the continued activities. pre- vious to the holidays. The merchants say that business has reached proportions for which their facilities are supremacy inadeouate, and as for further details the news gatherer is left foundering on his imagination.
 The heaviest demand seems to be on the line of fruits and produce, which IS coming in and going out by the carloads Among the shipments received yesterday were five cars of oranges and tangerines. two cars of apples, car of celery ana large quantities of nuts, raisins. cranber- ries and grapes.
 The number of turkeys and chickens reaching the market is daily increasing, in small lots and in large lots. The de- mand is exceedingly heavy at present. The markets are well supplied neverthe- less.
 Trading was at the high water mark also in the line of meats, and the mar ket is flooded with more orders than can be filed The supplies are pretty full' and it was reported yesterday that only a few additional shipments would arrivo for the Christmas trade.
 Business was good in the market Tor flour and feedstuffs. Receipts were re- ported as very light, but the market re- mained strong throughout the day.
 Prices remained steady yesterday and no important changes were noted in quo tationS.

WHEAT PRICES ARE
 SOME EWHAT BETTER
Southwest Is Still Too Dry for
 Crop Conditions
PRIMARY RECEIPTS LOW
Drouth in Argentina and Wet Weather in America Are Factors That Ad- vance Corn-Oats Higher,
 Provisions Lower

Chicago, December 22-Because of less moisture than expected in the drouth dis trict southwest, wheat prices frightened up today. The close was at net gain of Ac to ssc Corn finished with an advance of ss@1kc to ss@%c over last night and oats with 1sc to A@14c. In provisions there was decline of 71sc to 15c, com pared with 24 hours previous.
 An official forecast of fair and colder weather for the southwest tomorrow helped materially to bring about the buy ing of wheat on the part of traders who had sold short yesterday. There was also considerable purchasing by the leading longs. Lessened offerings from Argen- tina made European markets firm and thus had a similar effect here. Reports, too, were practically unanimous that lighter receipts were in prospect at pri- mary points in this country. In conse- quence little attention was given to the fact that the stock at Kansas City had become the largest on. record there for this time of year and that the accumula- ton at Minneapolis had increased SO0,0OO bushels in five days. Spectators minds centered almost wholly on the idea that the storm had gone on east without hav- ing settled conclusiyely the question of probable future damage to the winter crop let alone having applied fairly complete remedy for injury already in- fiicted.
 Some improvement in the flour trade at Minneapolis was noted and Kansas City reported the first foreign inquiry for the article in two months. With no bearish developments in sight the market closed firm at nearly the top figures of the session. Fluctuations in the May de- livery were between 95ssc and 96ssQ9619c with the finish 5sc up at 96is@96Ac.
 Drouth in the Argentine and wet weather in this country were both fac- tors in advancing quotations for corn. Liverpool did some buying here and shorts and local spectators followed. Country sales were somewhat lighter. May ranged from 471sc to 47sc, closing steady at 47s4@47bc, a net gain of asq1sc.
 Trade in oats was of such a holiday sort that the market much of the time was almost stationary. May varied from 34c to 34lsc, and closed 1sc up at 341sc.
 Business in hog products, although lib- eral, was not nearly so large as yester- day. Belief that there would be good supply of live animals in the next two or three weeks counted against prices. Latest figures showed losses all around, pork 121sc to 15c, lard 71ac to 104121ac, and ribs 121ac.
 EutlIre oI1otatiOns were AS follows.

RATES FOR UPPER
 BIRTHS REDUCED

Washington, December 22.-Forrnal or ders were announced by the inter- state commerce commission today re- ducing the price heretofore -exacted by the Pullman company for upper berths in sleeping cars. An order also was issued providing that after Feb ruary 1, 1911, certain specified reduc- tions in the charges for lower berths northwest of Chicago should be made by the Pullman company.
 Originally a complaint was filed with the commission by George S. Loftus of St. Paul, Minn., in which it was alleged that various Pullman car rates on railway lines in the northwest were excessive. Later the states of Okla homa, Iowa, Kansas, Indiana and Ark ansas, through their railroad commis- sions, instituted complaints with tho commission against the Pullman com pany because of alleged excessive rates charged by that company for upper berths.
 The whole questions were threshed out by the commission. It was final !y agreed by the Pullman company to introduce scale or lower rates on upper berths. To this proposed scale the commission gave tentative ap- proval, as previously announced.
 At the hearing of the cases the de- fendant company agreed to a reduc- ton not only on upper berths, but also on lowers. No order Is made by the commission, however, regarding lower berths, it's direction applying only to upper ones.
 The reductions of rates become ef- ective not later than February l. 1911, and must Remain in force for at least two years.

COTTON MARKET |S
 AT 4 STANDST|LL Prices Change Only a Point in
 Days Trading BUYERS HOLD ALOOF Realizing Cuts Prices Down n Little But Good Support From Bulls and Southern Interests Cause
 Reaction
BUYERS HOLD ALDO

New York, December 22.-No change of importance occurred in the cotton mar ket today, fluctuations being even mar rover than they were yesterday, with the close steady, net 1 point higher to 1 point lower.
 The opening was steady at an advance of points to a decline of 1 point, gen. erally 1 to points higher on the steady showing of the Liverpool cables and a little covering by recent sellers. There was no aggressive buying, however, and during the middle of the day prices worked off to a. net loss of about to D selling in anticipation that there might still be some speculative liquidation be- fore the close tomorrow night.
 But no important lines of long cotton came on the market. There was support from trade interests, little southern buying, and with the bulls taking little cotton on a scale down, prices soon stead fed, later rallied to about the closing fig ures of last night. Some attention was attracted by report that New England spinners would organize an extended cur tailment of production after the first of the year if business did not improve in the meantime, but the influence of this on sentiment was partially offset by re- ports that the inventories of leading western dry goods houses showed very light stocks and continued favorable trade advices from abroad.
 Receipts at .ts today, 4,676 bales, against 72,9S4 and 22,26O last year. For the w> J00 bales, against 426,S65 last week 224,740 last year. Todays receipts at New Orleans, 13119 bales, against 343s last year. and at Hous- ton. SS49 bales, against S64S last year.

uubbard Bros. .S Co.'S Letter

New York, December 22-(Special)-' All the markets are assuming a hol- iday character and the cotton market
 Is no exception. Judging from the ac- ton of the trade today there are prac- tically no sellers except what is known as the hedges against Christmas cot ton, which has come op the market iu the past few days This cotton has been bought on such a basN in tho south as to also permit delivery here, W hich is q curious feature in face of the bullish ideas SO prevalent. We eX- pect that the tenders here on Decem- Der and January will be taken up on a carrying basis; it will hardly be less because of the large stock accum- ulating here. One hears nothing against the market, excepting the large move ment and tile poor trade in America. England continues to send very bullish reports of the condition of trade in Manchester.
