CHICAGO.

CHICAGO, November 2s-Forced under
by flood of offerings, wheat today sank
below the dollar mark for May, the de-
livery in which most of the business was
transacted. Previous efforts of late to
pull down the price beyond that level had
been unsuccessful, and the different re-
suit this morning attracted greater atten-
ton, because of being accomplished in
the face Of an advance at Liverpool. One
reason was a direct cable from the Ar
gentine stating that threshing in the
southern part Of Santa Fee province show
ed yields above the average, and that
there was no sign of rust. An increase
of the European visible supply counted
also against the bulls. Opening figures
here were unchanged to haA higher, at
1.OOH to 1.O0A, but then the market de-
clined to 99A.
Late conditioning Of corn tended to
make that cereal firm. Car reports also
told Of much moldy srain being loaded.
May opened unchanged to u higher at
81 and 64h. and rose to 641sa64h.
Oats received good support from COM
mission houses. The motive was chief
ly sympathy with corn. May started
shade lower to a like amount up, at
49A to 1875, and seemed inclined to
hold within that range.
Provisions eased off on account Of
depression at the yards. Open buying
orders followed for pork caused that
staple to be relatively firm. Initial
sales were the same as last night to
2ka5c down. with May delivery 1880
to 1922 for pork. 9.45 to 9.47h for
lard and S.65 for ribs.

LOCAL FINANCIAL NEWS.

Coincidental with the announcement to.
day Of the resignation of John R. Nc
Lean as president Of the Washington Gas
Light Company, the stock Of the company
dropped point and an eighth at the
meeting Of the local stock exchange
Mr.. McLean's resignation at the present
time had not been anticipated The grad
ual downward movement Of the stock
which has been going on for some time
has been attributed to various causes, but
not to the probability Of the retirement
of the head Of the company.
Today the course Of the stock was pre-
cisely the Same as il has been in recent
days. with the exception that it was more
rapid, and instead of moving down by
fractional stages today it fell point and
q half. as compared with the figures at
eighth in the record of sales.
The bidding in the stock began very
cautiously at so, which was points
less than Yesterdays closing bid How
ever. the offerings were only a half a
point less than what the stock could be
had yesterday. and so the bidders pro
ceeded with more confidence, and present
ly the level of IS was reached. At this
point for the first time sales were made
A Twenty-Five share lot sold at that price
and so did several small lots.
1t was apparent there was more stock
Tor sale, and at lower figures, and the
bid sank to 81, but when it was found
that concessions were being made on the
asking price then the bid was withdrawn.
The stock was offered down as low as
s41s without meeting a purchaser, and
that was the end for the time. At the
close the bid was S31t.
After call one hundred shares in twenty
five share lots sold for 81, which is a
point and an eighth less than the lowest
current price.
William J. Father, vice president Of
Riggs Bank, who has been in New Or
leans attending the annual gathering Of
the American Bankers Association, has
returned to this city, and today was at
the session of the exchange.

Trading on Smaller Scale.

Trading was on n considerably small
er scale today. and movements were ir-
resolute. Professional traders generally
were aligned on the bear side, and sue
ceeded in depressing the market for a
time, after a fairly strong opening in
response to the higher scale of quota
tions in London. United States Steel
was attacked with especial severity, on
account of reports from Washington
that the Stanley investigation was not
to be abandoned on account of the dis
solution suit against the corporation.
Pressure against the market relaxed
after IL O'Clock, but the list was slug
gish, and showed little interest in a
sharp rally by Lehigh Valley. which
went up to 17SK. Most of the leading
operators on the floor figured in the
early selling movement. which gave rise
to the suspicion that the fall in prices
was due to an organized bear attack
Gossip had it that a former influential
ally of the Gould faction was directing
the bear campaign against the general
market Bonds were irregular.

WORLDS LARGEST BAKERY.

The largest bakery in the world is
located in Essen, Prussia, the home
of the great Krupp gun factory. 1t is
a vast building in which 20 workmen,
divided into two shifts, work night
and day. Everything is done by ma
chinery A screw turns increasingly
kneading trough, into which are
poured some water and ten sacks of
flour Of goo pounds each. This ma
chine makes about 10000 pounds of
bread each day in the shape of $4,000
small loaves and $4,000 large loaves,
produced by $50 sacks of -four of 200
pounds each. All the operations of
breadmaking are performed in this
colossal bakery. The wheat arrives
there. is cleaned, ground and brought
automatically to the kneading trough
by a series of rising and descending
pipes. There are sc double ovens
and the workmen who watch over the
baking of the bread earn from to 1C
cents an hour, making an average OF
80 cents a day for II hours on duty
They have coffee and bread free, also
the use of a bathroom, for they are
required to keep themselves spot
lIessly clean, and must wash theil
! hands eight times a day.

TRAINING WILD ANIMALS

OF an innovation made while the
trainer is Gagged with his pupils On
one occasion an admirer of Madame
Pianka sent her some red roses just
before a performance, She thought
lessly took them and entered the cage.
A lion sprang forward and made q
sweep at the roses, fearfully lacerat-
ing Madame Piankas arm and chest.
Sne threw the roses from her just in
time For other lions leaped from
their pedestals and pounced on the
roses. They had mistaken them for
meat. At another time Mr.. Bostock en-
tered a cage to help Madame Pianka
with a sulky lioness. He thoughtless-
ly struck his whip against his boot
Instanstly the mate of the lioness,
thinking no doubt that harm was in
tended, Bprang upon Mr.. Bostock and
downed him, then picked him up in his
mouth and carried him to Madame
Pianka. In the latter's hand was re-
volver, used in her act. She instantly
fired two shots, which was the cue for
the next act, and the lion dropped Mr.
Bostock and fell into his accustomed
pose. To this hold of habit upon the
lion Mr.. Bostock owed his life.
OF the hazards Of animal training it
is almost superhuous to speak. Every
animal trainer is at times clawed and
bitten. He expects to be. 1t is all in
the days work.
Animal trainers say that if they ex-
ercise proper care, they run no greater
rick than do miners, locomotive engi-
neers, iron workers and other men who
follow hazardous callings. Perhaps
that is true; certainly one man is on
record who handled animals with en-
tire impunity. His name was Noah
and he lived n the ark.

described. When looking at the
bright spectrum of sunlight, this sci
enlist sees only three colors-red,
green and violet. For him there is no
variety of color in the part of tue
spectrum that appears to persons with
normal vision pure blue. He can dis
tinguish nothing of the nature of pure
yellow in the spectrum. Reddish
green would describe the orange and
yellow parts, and greenish violet the
blue parts as he sees them. In test
ing with colored yarns, the WOO
changed color to him when contrast
ed, although normal sighted person
saw no difference.
These facts show how different gu
favorite color may possibly appear t
some of our friends.
