OR DAvY MAKES STATEMENT
TO THE FORUM.

Referring to the meeting Of the city
council last night Mayor Davy today
said: mo resolution was before the
city council regarding the opening OF
the Lyceum theatre on Sundays. con-
sequently no action was taken and no
petition granted.
Manager Leek of the Lyceum ap
peared before the council and verbally
asked for a permit to open his picture
show on Sundays. He said the sub
jects OF the pictures would be scrip
tural or historical and along lines Of
instruction and education, and he
promised maintenance OF good order.
There was no objection raised to the
opening Of the theatre and there the
matter stands. AS / understand Il,
there is no law to compel the closing
of the theatre, only in the case of dis
orderly conduct. No formal action
whatever was taken. consequently
there was no unanimous decision that
the show can rum
II suppose that ii may be tentatively
understood that hereafter the theatre
VIII be open on Sunday. many OF the
aldermen thought that worse places
than theatres were open on Sunday
and that perfectly clean amusement
was not at all harmful"

About IL O'Clock today the jury in

The national decline in agricultural
activity has something to do with the
result, no doubt, but that influence is
felt everywhere, and other states are
making progress in spite of it, except
occasional districts like Iowa, which
actually lost population during the
last decade. In Michigan twenty six
counties fell behind the 1900 census
this year but their gross loss was
only 27,4S2 and the city Of Flint alone
gained almost enough to Offset 1t The
state made an advance of 1871 per cent

quite as much in evidence here as

emigrated to the other states and de-
voted his acuteness TO realizing the

resounds to foreign speech, as any

advance. A large number of the wheat

1uring that the advance had been too
rapid. but there was no evidence to
show that the bull traders did any SELL
ing and a great deal to induce that
they had bought freely in the first
hours trading. Bull leaders took a
different view from the professionals
and ii was remarked that their hold
ings were not so large that the mar
ket will go to pieces right away. and
that they will either take a big profit
or a loss. Prices yesterday were up 10
the point where nearly all the wheat
held by eastern houses showed a profit
and some Of the local longs who have
sweat through the decline were willing
to go out even or with a small profit
Corn-Corn was sold more freely by
the country yesterday than any time in
years. IT was estimated that country
purchases by Chicago houses exceeded
1000, 600 bushels yesterday and in three
days over 100000 bushels. Two
houses bought 100000 bushels. all of
which hedged in the pit A great deal
of corn was also turned down by local
and interior buyers, as they were get

Grain Opinions.

Finley Darrell & Co: We believe
a good reaction is necessary to place
the wheat market in healthy condi-
ti0n as from a speculative standpoint
1t appears badly overbought.
Logan & Bryan: The trend Of the
wheat market and the character of
the news favor the buyers on normal
reactions.
Walter Fitch & Co.: We favor
working the long side of the wheat
from all reasonable setbacks.
S. B. Chaplin 81 Co: The advance
in wheat has been rapid and we are
OF the opinion that fair speculative
recession would put the market in bet
ter shape.
Shearson Hammill & Co: We still
advocate the long side of wheat but are
in line to suggest caution on this adj
vance.
Clement Curtis & Co. Further de-
cIines in wheat and corn appear prob
able in view of the heavy selling and
on any breaks advise purchases.
