CHICAGO WHEAT LOWER.
Market Moves Within Narrow Range,
But Always Downward, Today.

Chicago, Jan. 26.-While weakness
was heavy in the grain market to-
day, there was only a narrow margin
in wheat prices. Market opened 1-S
to 3-sc lower and closed Ia to 3Sc
under yesterday.
Weakness abroad and the slow de.
mand for cash wheat from millers
was the feature which dominated the
pit trade today. While Minneapolis
millers told OF a slightly better call
for flour, they admitted that no ship
ping directions accompanied the or
ders.
Foreign markets We're generally
weaker and lower. At Liverpool there
was a loss OF 5-Sd. Paris was down
3-4c, while Antwerp was unchanged.
Beef From Nebraska.
Pacific northwest packers are
bringing in carloads of dressed cattle
from Nebraska in order to cover up
the shortage of offerings of home cat
tie While it has been known to a
certainty that shipments of small lots
OF beef have been made to the north
west from the east in previous years
because there was demand for q
certain quality, It Is now claimed that
the dressed product can be landed
here from the Omaha territory at less
money than It costs to bring livestock
Whether the experiment proves q
success remains to be seen, but 1t will
have n tendency to affect the price
of livestock here whenever our value:
get to a point where 1t is permissible
10 bring in the outside stuff.
There were very liberal arrivals OF
livestock in the yards at North Port
land today. with sheep and hogs ir
the majority. The market for hogs
is generally considered weaker ow'
ing to the lower price existing in the
east. where local packers get the bull
of their needs. The market at Soutf
Omaha today was 8 to 10 cents low
er, which placed the price for landing
swine at northwestern points at $50
for best offerings, but for the major
ity OF the arrivals today receivers say
that buyers were not offering above
$3.50.
A change of sentiment seems t.

Bear Market in Human Hair.

New York, Jan. 27.-Augustus H.
Sillikin. receiver in bankruptcy of
Louis Levusseve, manufacturer of hu-
man hair goods, whose case came up
in court today said that the boom in
the hair business has been killed by
the report from China that WI Ting
Fang, former Chinese minister to the
United States is to cut off his queue
on January 80. OF course all other
Cinnamon will follow suit, and it is
expected that large quantities of hair
will be sent to America to be sold.
Last year was boom in the hair bus
mess, and manufacturers enlarged
their stock, only to find now that
prices have dropped and demand
slackened.

WANT FISHING LAWS
TO REMAIN UNCHANGED

Salem. Or, Jan. Publishing laws
on the Columbia, reviving the old dis
putes between upper river and down
river fishermen, caused a division of
sentiment among members of the sem
ate committee on resolutions last
night. The measure under consider
alton is a resolution calling for joint
committee of the legislatures of Ore
gon and Washington to agree on uni
form laws.
The fishing interests of the upper
river last night opposed any change
in the laws, holding It Is best to leave
them undsturbed They We're repre-
sented by F. NJ. Warren, Frank Seu-
fert and Joseph Burke. Astoria inter-
ests were represented by o. ]. Settem
and II. NJ. Lorntzen.
owing to the division OF opinion
some members of the committee de-
sired to report the resolution without
recommendation. Chairman Kella-
her. who is opposed to its passage, is
also opposed to a colorless report and
the situation seems likely to resolve
in majority and minority reports.

have affected the eastern markets so
far as sheep are concerned. The long
drawn out weakness has given way
to firmer tone and at South Oma-
ha this morning wethers were quot
ed from $3.50 to s4.15 with yearling
wethers at $4.75 and So.
Most of the recent offerings of
sheep and lambs were of poor quality
and therefore prices were not favor
able. Feeder stuff has been in the
majority and recent sales here have
been around $3.50.

A demand for export flour has
again appeared and during the past
AZ hours some fair sized orders have
been received from the Orient. These
are said to come almost entirely from
Japan as Chinas needs are small be-
cause of the previous heavy purchase.
owing to the better demand for ex-
port flour millers are offering sic
track for club, although exporters
say the export value is not above 7sc
and they are not keen to purchase
even at this value just now.
There was a weaker feeling all
through the worlds wheat market to-
day and this is what caused export
ers to go slow in their bids.
California buyers are still very keen
after bluestem and sales as high as
the S5c basis have been reported at
interior points during the past "a
hours.

chronic ULCERS
INDICATE BAD BLOOD

Where the blood is pure any wound
or laceration of the flesh heals "by
first intention" This is true because
nature has provided a constituent to
the circulation known as Plasma,
which joins and holds the place to-
gether until the fibres and tissues can
permanently knit and interweave.
Whenever the ulcer becomes chronic
it is because this healing quality of
the blood has been impaired by some
impurity in the circulation, and the
place remains open, injecting all sur
rounding flesh, until the character of
the circulation is changed. No sore
can heal where the blood is bad be-
cause the morbid impurities on which
it thrives are constantly deposited
into it by the burdened circulation.
Cleanse the blood and the sore will
heal of its own accord, because then
its very source and foundation will
have been destroyed. S. S. S. cures
Chronic Ulcers of every kind for the
one great reason that it thoroughly
purifes the blood. 1t goes into the

hedges and across fields, once more to
plunge into big woodlands, In the heart
Of which is the great earth wherein
many generations have been bred. In
these particular holes the badgers are
fairly safe. The tunnels are bored in
layer Of sand lying between strata
of clay and rock, and run in every d.
rection for hundreds Of feet. There
are only two visible entrances, which
are inconspicuous holes, without even
heap of soil to distinguish them
from surrounding rabbit burrows; for
being situated at the top Of one Of
the sides Of very steep and deep val
ley, or dingle, as they are locally
called, the soil all rolls down to the
stream below, where 1t is washed
away. In fact, the sole intimations of
badgers are the pathways formed by
their always taking the same road in
their nightly wanderings, and which
lead up to the two entrances. Some
two or three years ago, a fox, hard
pressed by hounds, took refuge In this
earth, and the master and whip, not
knowing the place, sent for spades
and terriers and commenced opera
tons to get him out.
To cut long story short, they dug
till late at night, and finally hounds
were taken home; but orders had
been left with men of the district to
finish the Job next day. These men
dug steadily for three days; they re-
moved many tons of soil. but the
further they got into the cliff the more
tunnels there were. In some holes
they found neat beds of grass and
fern. 1t had to be given up, for the
work was Herculean; it would have
required weeks to reach the extremi
ties of the various holes. A short
time ago I visited the place, and ap
parently the badgers are still there
