When December shorts had evened up
that option suddenly dropped cents un-
der last night. May nevertheless held
steady and closed at 50 cents even, gain
of 1zc net.
CORN-A bit of a furry developed IN
the corn market. December dumping up
full cent. The reason was that oterlngs
of that option were limited, and there
seemed to be some eleventh hour shorts
still on the anxious seat, with no other
day ahead in which to settle accounts
May opened lsc to &c higher at 6Sl2c to
655sc and advanced to 6S5su63s4c.
December shorts bid the market up on
themselves, making the price bulge nearly
cents over last night. The May option
though remained steady and closed at
63ss G1631ac a net advance of a shade.
OATS-Oats showed firmneSs with 9TH
er grain. Trade was light. May started
1s@14c to 14GD3sc up at 47$zc TO 473sc and
seemed inclined to hold within that range.
PROVISIONS-A large run of hogs west
made provisions easy. Changing from
nearby options to deferred months formed
the bulk of business Initial sales were
unchanged to &c lower with May delivery,

Roosevelt and Afilliard J. Bloomer,
executive secretary of the committee.
There are several letters from the for
mer president in the correspondence;
the principal one written on Dec. is
in line with Mr.. Roosevelt's editorial
in the current number of the Out
look.
Il cannot permit the use of my
name for that peace banquet the let
ter reads simply because I do not
know what that banquet is for. If it
is meant to OVerawe the senate and
force that body against it's conscience
to support the unamended treaties
which the senate committee on for
eign relations has shown by unan-
swerable argument to be hostile to the
honor and interest of the American
people then I am not in sympathy
with you.
For instance if you propose to sup
port the arbitration treaties then 1
think that you are not merely wrong,
but that you are engaged in what is
essentially an unworthy and however
unconSciOuSly, a hypocrftical move
against the interest of peace and
against the honor and interest of the
United States and civilization If you
intend to support these treaties, how
ever, with the amendments intro
duced by Senators Root and Lodge,
then you are all right because you are
supporting what is not a very impor-
tant, but still sincere effort to make
things a little better.
Mr.. Roosevelt then reiterated what
he said yesterday in his editorial
"hyprocisy never pays" and detailed
his views why the unamended treaties
should not be supported.
II. r. Is Not Hungry.
New York, Dec. 3O.=CoIonel Theo-
dore Roosevelt is quoted as saying that
he will not attend the peace banquet
tonight because che is not hungry"
