GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.
CHICAGO.

CHICAGO, October 3.-Wheat prices
today took a decided jump. There was
general commission house buying based
largely on the huge exports shown to
be in progress. The more radical bulls
took the position that the surplus in
the United States was not sufficient to
fill the European demand. and that
values would go up whether or not
there was an early peace. After start
ing Is to 2x higher. values scored a
material further gain.
Corn rose with wheat, and as a re-
suit of predicted wet weather. The
outlook was for little or no deliveries
next week from first hands. Prices
opened Y to 1& higher. and seemed
inclined to hold near the topmost level
reached.
Shorts rushed to cover in the oats
crowd. Big sales were reported as
having been made to the seaboard
Provisions climbed with grain ana

Just what effect the depression in
business may have on the volume of
income tax money may well be mag
ined by the statement that to date 100
corporations. some of them with mil
lions of capital, have cut their divf-
dend distributions Many shareholders
in these enterprises have large hold
ings, and they are distributed through
out the list in such way as to seri-
ously cut annual revenues and take
many income taxpayers out of the list
on file in the Treasury Department.
There is no reason to hope that there
will be a restoration of full dividends
in. the near future, unless perhaps the
Interstate commerce commission puts

For the week ending yesterday the
wheat exports from the United States
and Canada, -four included. were the
heaviest on record. Since July there
have been exported s5,472,900 bushels
of wheat and -four. while last week
they totaled 9,4se,000. as compared
with 6,s60,000 bushels the previous
week.
While the south is in trouble over
the stoppage of the cotton mill indus
try, to a large extent, abroad, the
west is rejoicing in prosperity, and the
opinion in financial circles is that
there will be $300.000.000 to $350.000,-

ment in security markets.

Local bankers note an improvement
in the situation and report that pri-

the coming week will likely see the
first returns of emergency currency

October disbursements are fast return

growing stronger with the return OF
crop moving cash.
The Gold Cure.
Savings banks. ready and willing to
nay depositors in times Of stress. fire.
ouently find that the latter do not want
their cash. when they know they can get
1t, so the formation Of the gold pool has
checked the demand for foreign ex-
change and caused slight slump in the
price.
Foreign travel will be greatly reduced
during the next six months, or longer,
and the millions annually expended in
Europe by Americans will find their way
into the channels of American trade and
commerce, to the further betterment of
business and lessening to a certain ex-
tent the process of creating a credit
balance in favor of foreign countries.

How the Mexicans Put Macmillan to Death

heard the joke, and to have laughed at II.
1t was no less remembered that Ma
poleon and Eugene had been most cor
dial in their reception of the new En-
peror and Empress of Mexico when
they visited them to take farewell be-
fore their departure for their distant
realm. Two years later this same I'M
happy empress came .back alone to
throw herself at the feet of Napoleon,
imploring, importuning, supplicating
him to redeem his solemn promises to
her husband, now in peril OF his life.
Painting with excitement and already
upon the borderland of insanity, it Is
related that the wretched. Charlotte had
asked for glass of water. Instead,
a glass OF orange syrup was brought to
her; but pushing 1t aside she exclaimed,
you wish to poison me-" Then rising
from her kneeling position, the dis
tracted woman rushed from the room
and from the palace, openly cursing the
folly of one who being the granddaugh-
ter OF Louis Philippi could have trusted
the word Of Bonaparte.
Gen. du Barail has recorded that Eu-
genie treated the French officers re-
turning home from Mexico with stud
led GOODNESS and neglect, because they
could bring her no good news Of Cleri-
cal prospects there. This being So" he
adds. I'VE could not hope to please her.
She did not grant us the honor Of an
audience, and we dared not to ask for
one"

was then in full swing, and the French
court in the midst OF a number OF elab-
crate social entertainments. None OF
these could be postponed, and the anom-
ally was presented of a court, officially
"in mourning" participating in per-
petual round of balls, receptions and
gala performances.
1t IL said that the French emperor
and empress were greatly shocked by
the Mexican news; the alright was
probably Occasioned more by the dread
OF what public opinion would say than
by any feeling OF genuine remorse or Of
sympathy for the luckless victim of Ma
poleon's cold treachery on the one hand
and Of Eugenies chilling indifference on
the other.
The fact was recalled that the EN-
press Eugene had particularly Inter-
ested herself In the sending of Max
imilian to Mexico, but that it was upon
her suggestion that the continued sup
port Of the French army was subse-
quently refused. The original idea seems
to have occurred to her AZ far back as
1861, when agents of the def lated Cleri-
calist president Miramon arrived In Eu-
rope afterwards being followed by
Miramon himself) to discover whether
any European Power would support the
Church against the Liberals Of Mexico.
1t was with bitter irony that some witty
American had nicknamed Macmillan,
the Archduke Of Austria, the "Archdupe
Of France" Eugene is said to have
