THREAT TO BLOW UP CAPITOL.
Bedraggled Looking Stranger Peev-
ish When Slumber Is Disturbed.

The peaceful slumber Of a bedrag-
gled looking stranger, who had settled
himself for a nap In one of the chairs
allotted to the Senate messengers, just
outside the Senate chamber, was in
terrupted by the Capitol police early
this morning.
"G'wan away and let me alone" said
the stranger, who had removed his
shoes IN order to be more comfortable.
The Capitol policeman, however, was
inslstent that the stranger move on.
"If you don't leave me alone I'll
blow up the whole Capitol" said the
stranger in an irritated tone. I'm
sick and tired of capitalists. anyhow"
He reached down for his shoes, and
the policeman thought he might have
a bomb concealed in one Of them. He
took the shoes and the stranger away
to the guardroom. and later the
stranger, who gave his name as John
Henry, was taken to the sixth pre-
cinct station to Sleep"

NEW YORK. December 1S.-There
was enough realizing after yesterdays
advance to cause some IRE gularity in
the cotton market during today's early
trading, but after opening at decline

or commission house demand. Liver
pool fully responded to yesterdays
local advance. while buyers were also
encouraged by the steady ruling of the
spot markets late yesterday, and claims
that the big increase in the winter
wheat area of the cotton states fore
shadows a material reduction in the
cotton area next spring.

GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.
CHICAGO.

CHICAGO. December 1S.-Sharp ad-
vances at Liverpool and the continu-
ance of lively demand here from for
eigners gave fresh strength today to
wheat. Local receivers complained
that inability to get cash wheat from
the country was checking business. At
Liverpool the demand was said to ex-
coed the supply. with Argentine Of
ferings very small. Opening prices,
which ranged from Is to Say up.
were followed by slight reaction and
then by a rise to a higher level than
before.
Export demand lifted corn as we'll
as wheat. Rural sales were a little
larger than heretofore, but not enough
so to have any material effect After
opening shade off to 4 higher, the
market scored moderate general
upturn.
Oats responded to the frmness in
other cereals. Trade, however, was
light.
Big receipts of hogs weakened the
provision market. 1t was noticeable
though that the pressure to sell was
of a scattering character
