THE CROP MARKETS
Grains Regain an Early Loss,
Closing Higher-Coffee Gains.

There was a moderate selling movement
in the early part OF trading in wheat.
but covering and sympathy with other
markets started rally, which wiped out
a loss of 1sc and showed a net gain of
&c at the close. There was not much
enthusiasm on either side of the market,
and trading was mostly Of professional
character, with little II any outside in
terest apparent. Corn, under liquidation
and some short selling, lost nc to sc
early, but the market was believed TO be
oversold and there was distinct opposi-
ton to the large discount at which dis
tant futures are selling under cash corn.
The close was at n net gain OF lsc TO &c
over Tuesdays finish. Oats felt the effect
Of the late firmness in corn and recent
heavy sales OF cash oats for domestic
consumption. and price changes were
small, the close being at net unchanged
to nc up.
Bulish sentiment prevailed In the cot
fee market, which opened at an advance
Of 10 TO 20 points. with September the
strong position. Belief In an oversold
market and the effect OF labor troubles
In Brazil kept prices on the upgrade,
although the bull movement was ham
pered by inactivity IN the spot markets.
The opening figures were the high Of the
day, but the declines were not enough
TO wipe out the gain, and on sales OF
1870 bags the close was at a net ad-
vance OF to IL points

Utah is a big copper mining state. and
some Of the greatest mining men OF this
country have been identified with mining
developments In that section. III dreams
came true" According to stories told Of
Jesse knight, one Of the rich men identified
with Utah's mining developments, dream
really did come true in his case. Many
years ago Jesse knight was n poor pros
pector, who tramped the hills, and like
all prospectors. had hopes of some day
making a big strike" which would give
him Independence. One night he had
a dream, which seemed so real he could
not shake ii from his mind. He dreamed
that If he were to tunnel into a certain
mountain $50 feet he would strike a
fissure. From there the dream showed
that by tunnelling to the right a number
of feet q large body OF ore would be en-
oountered. Friends Of Knight did not be-
lieve much I'm dreams. but he eventually
persuaded some people to put up the
money. The tunnel was dug. the assure
exposed, a turn to the right and score
Of feet away the large body of ore was
opened which afterward became known as
the Humbug Mine, heavy producer and
dividend payer. Jesse Knights dream
came true and he is to-day rich man.
