Big Detroit Knight
Pulled from Train
by Practical Joker

To be president and owner Of one Of
the largest warehouse and storage COM
panies OF Detroit. to be an officer In the
National Association Of Warehouse Men,
TO be chairman Of the committee on ar
rangement for the national conclave Of
the knights Of Pythias. to be. well. to be
lots of things like that. and to be ar
rested. charged with heinous crime. 10
a mixture that palled the brain and ner-
vous system of H. J. Leonard when his
train came into Omaha early yesterday.
He was hurried from the depot to Cap
tain Dunn's office at the police station.
where he was subjected to the third de-
gree. He uprooted his family tree and
stacked the fruits thereof at the cap
tain's feet; he named his great-grand-
mothers fayorite perfume, he spelled his
name backwards, made 1t lay down. roll
over and play dead; he named every
acquaintance from the time he first
spelled cat until 2:3o yesterday morning;
he told the front and middle names Of his
every reladve-in fact, he did every
thing to prove that he was not the man
they said he was.
Then when W. W. Roller, president of
the Omaha Expressmens Delivery COM
pany, who had been standing outside the
police station giving vent to his risibili-
ties, walked in and Identified aim. Leon
ard passed around the cigars. He was
more relieved than the man who coined
that word.
Mr.. Leonard is enroute to Denver to
complete arrangements for the national
conelave Of the knights Of Pythias to be
held there. Roller was notified of his
coming through Omaha from Detroit ard
the practical joke grew forth iaturally
and successfully. #sas .

CATTLE-There was a splendid cattle
market this morning considering that II
was Thursday and that receipts for
this late In the week were so large, i75
cars being reported in. The total receipts
this week foot up l7.4a2 head, gain OF
almost zoV head as COMPARED with the
corresponding four days last week and a
slight increase over the same period q
year ago.
Buyers OF beef steers were out In the
yards early In the morning and although
this late In the week the demand is not
expected to be very urgent. still they all
seemed TO want the cattle. AS result,
when the trade was once under way
there was very fair movement OF stock
at prices that were fully steady and In
some cases quite little stronger. II was
possible TO find statesmen who were quot
ing the market as much as steady to l0c
higher on the more desirable grades OF
Cows and heifers were also in very
good demand and they generally COM
manded strong prises. with sales in some
instances looking as much as loo higher.
The movement was fairly active and the
bulk OF the receipts had changed hands
In fair season In the morning.
There was some little inquiry for desir-
able feeders. that Is, cattle having both
quality and weight and anything OF that
description commanded good steady
prices. On the other hand the market for
common kinds and for light, trashy
stockers was a little slow, as was to be
expected this late In the week.

BANK OF ENGLAND CUTS
ITS RATE OF DISCOUNT

LONDON, Feb. S.-After prolonged dis
cussion the rate Of discount Of the Bank
Of England was reduced today to 81 per
cent, owing to the easy monetary condl-
lions here and on the continent OF Eu.
rope and in America and the steadily In
creasing strength Of the gold reserve.
The exceptional demand for gold for
India has begun to slacken and in view
Of the American gold shipments to Paris

It to make a 81 per cent rate effective

necessity for maintaining the per cent

OAAlfA. feps ., ISlL
For the last few days buyers OF wheat
have had TO unload their lines on a de-
Ginning market because Of a very slow
and uncertain demand on the buiges.
Bullish foreign news loses much OF Its
effect from the fact that all domestic
markets are not In line for export busi-
ness. Gables were weak and lower and
our market was duh and sagging.
At the present time there seems TO be
too much corn coming on the maraet TO
make any advance hold. At the same
time the underlying situation is bullish.
and while there are temporary setbacks.
the final outcome should show much
higher corn prices.
Wheat ruled dull. with cables lower
and cash demand slow. Buying was
only scattered and the market tone was
easy. Cash wheat was &C lower.
Corn continues strong with no new fea-
ture. Cash demand Is rather slack at
present prices. As soon as the present
supplies have been absorbed, further ad-
rances are assured.
Primary wheat receipts were l9s 900
bushels and shipments were I'll 90 bush
els. against receipts last year Of f5I,Vo

Primary corn receipts were i.403,ol0
