Private sales Of horses at Chicago
Thursday were poor. No auction, and
but few of the commission men showed
around the barns. There are plenty or
horses left over, as the result of poor
trade after Monday. No Improvement
in the tone of the market over last
week was noted. In some cases it was
a shade lower.
Part of the holdover is due to the re-
ceipts so far this week being larger
than those Of last week by several hun
dred. This, coupled with the small
orders of the city buyers, made sales
almost an impossibility after Monday,
despite the liberal concessions which
We're made in most instances.
While the 1900 pound horses sold
well, the market for this class was not
active enough to suit the sellers, who
declare the buyers will take nothing
but what they think is bargain. East
ern buyers are still holding up; that is.
their orders are not as large as they
should be, in view Of the fact that the
period when horses will be needed is
only short time off.
The biggest cargo import cattle re-
ceived in the United States since the
new tariff law became effective was
LOO head Of Mexican cattle, which
arrived at Galveston. Wednesday, from
TampicO. Inc STOCK was billed to the
Fort Worth market.
A slight feeling of uneasiness is
noticeable among millers as the result
Of the continued claims of a good ex-
port business in domestic wheats. Min
neapolis wired Ware e Leland yester-
day that mills in Indiana Ohio and ILL
nois were after cash wheat there, and
that while some had already been
worked, the amount was small Ship
ping sales at Chicago yesterday were
$4,000 bu although it was rumored that
one Of the leading elevator interests
had sold q fair quantity in addition, but
details were not forthcoming. Omaha
sold 10000 bu hard winter to come here
on the basis of 2hc under May, track
Chicago and Nebraska points also sold
a little to come here.
While a good export business was on
in st. Louis. details Of which will be
found in another column, cash prices
in that market and at Kansas City
and Milwaukee were unchanged, while
Omaha was unchanged to Nc higher.

COurier'S Markets Of World
FOR GRAIN
TAKE BIG TUMBLE
ALL INFLUENCES
FAVOR THE BEARS WHO
CONTROL MARKET.

Chicago, Jan. 16.-Selling orders came
with a rush today in wheat. There had
been unexpectedly heavy shipments
from Australia, a return of fine wealth
er was promoting the crop moNe lnent
in Argentina. and bearish estimates
We're at hand regarding the probable
export surplus in the United States.
The opening was Il "a to % q &c low
err, and a further setback followed.
High temperatures throughout the
winter crop belt tended to prevent any
decided upturn. The close was easy, u
q % to sc under last night.
Mild weather pulled down the corn
market. Moreover, shipments from Ar
gentina were twice as large as expected.
Prices started "A "a to Ss@Ac off and
underwent an additional sag.
Enlarged country offerings kept the
market depressed. The close was weak
at decline of q a &c net.
Oats headed downward, influenced by
other grain. Shorts. however were ac-
tive buyers on the break.
In provisions the effect of the bullish
statement in regard to warehouse
stocks here was more than offset by
declining prices for hogs and corn.
First sales ranged from last nights
level to TIC lower, with no signs of any
important rally.

Connolly TO RUN
FOR THE SENATE
CONGRESSMAN FROM DUBUQUE
is PROBABLE DEMOCRATIC
CANDIDATE FOR JOB.
IBY ELISHA HANSON. !

Washington ID. c.. Jan. 16.-Repre-
sentative Maurice Connolly Of the
third district will be the democratic
nominee for United States senator In
Iowa next fall. ..
Although he steadily refuses to talk
about the matter. Connolly Is being
hailed on all sides here as the man
who will oppose Senator Cummins. 1t
lis a generally accepted fact among
the democrats of the house that he
will run and already he has received
the best wishes of many of his fellow
members and many offers Of help.
While home during the holidays,
Connolly got over good portion OF
the state. Everywhere he was greeted
kindly and he admits that he was
surprised at the courtesies>he received.
The democrats will unite on Con-
molly for number Of reasons The
chief one is that he is probably as
we'll known through Iowa as any man
they could pick who has not been in
volved in factional fights. Before en-
tering politics, Connolly travelled for
years in the interests of his familys
business in Dubuque and he is ex-
tremely we'll liked among the travelling
men. Also he was formerly state
president of the Elks. And last but
not least, Connolly, though not an
extremely wealthy man. can afford to
make determined fight for the
senate.
The only speck on the horizon is the
ambition of Claude Porter to run
against Senator Cummins. 1t Is be-
lieved here now that Porter will land
some good job shortly, probably that
Of assistant attorney general, or
special attorpeyship in the department
of Justice. Porter might have had oc-
casion to run against Pepper but it
is believed he can find none outside OF
personal ambition to run against Con-
molly.
When Judge Wade comes to Wash
ington, the newspaper boys here i'm
mediately ask him if he won't be
candidate. The judge has no ambi-
tions that way, however, or if he has,
they are under good control, and 1t
may be stated now he won't get into
the race in his own behalf and won't
permit his friends to inject him into 1t.

JUDGE SAYS THERE'S REGULAR
PICKPoCKETS' TRUST
Before the council committee
studying hte crime problem, Judge
UhIir made the statement yesterday
that a pickpockets' TRUST existed in
Chicago and that this trust had Elk
ers" in the courts.
"Pickpockets have regular or
ganization," said Judge Uhlir. Its
members hire lawyer by the year.
l presume they also have a secre-
tary and a treasurer.
81 can tell by looking at the law
yeTs as soon as arrive in my court
in the morning whether there are any
pickpocket cases on the docket. If
there are can see the same lawyers
and witnesses about who have been
in scores of other similar cases.
Zone of the reasons convictions
are hard to obtain is that pickpockets
work in sets of three.
Here is the way it is done:
THE stall gets on a street car and
picks a fight or an argument with a
man by stepping on his toes. The
rumpus draws the attention of the
passengers to the stall Then the
dip robs the man the STALL is quar-
reling with and passes the pocket
book to the getaway who disap-
pears.
''In most cases the man grabs the
'stau' and accuses him of the theft.
The STALL is searched, but nothing is
found on him. When he is brought
into court you can see there is little
evidence that he was a party to the
theft.
81 will say that aldermen don't in
tercede for criminals. They usually
come in to plead for some first Of
fender on minor charge.
81 know of cases where a 'f1xer'
has come into court, said good morn
ing to the judge and gone back to
his clients and told them everything
