The taxi came before Dick was
dressed, but I sat -serenely, saying
nothing. I know he expected me to
be impatient, but after I had asked
him if he intended to go to the party
and received his petuIant answer,
What do you think I'm getting into
evening clothes for?" I simply said,
''The taxi is here" and sat down
with all my wraps on to wait for
him.
l could hear him impatiently hunt
ing for articles, but as I knew 1 had
put everything necessary for his
toilet out where he could find them
l did not bulge from my chair,
where 1 read the evening paper and
commanded my patience.
At last he came from his room
without a word, put on his oVercoat
and started for the door. I trailed
after him and we rode over to Mrs.
Tenney's in silence.
Il am so glad you could come,
Margie," was Donna's welcome, and
then she looked beyond me to where
Dick stood and said, Isn't Eleanor
Fairlow with you? I thought you
were going to bring her, Mr.. Wav-
er1y."
Dicks face got brick red, but after
a moments hesitation he said 81 be-

to Dick as we passed on, "a friend in
need is a friend indeed"
Then Dick made the mistake of
asking, What do you mean?"

engagement this evening was to take

then, much to my relief, Mr.. Hatton
came up and asked me to dance.

through smiling lips as dropped into
the One-step with Mr.. HattOn. My
heart, however, was grieving. Why
does Dick systematically keep it from
me when ne sees Eleanor Fairlow? I
kept wondering while I was dancing
if he had intended to bring her alone,
and then I dismissed that from my
mind, for l was sure he would not
defy the conventions to such an ex-

NATIVES FOR CANAL DEFENSE
Plans Under Way to Organize Panama
Reserve Force

Plans Under Way to Organize Panama
Reserve Force.
Correspondence of Associated Presso
Panama. March 14.-Plans for the
organization of a large and we'll trained
reserve force from among the natives
of the republic OF Panama are being
considered by Brig. Gen. Clarence K.
Edwards. commander OF the Panama
canal troops. 1t is proposed that these
reserves should form part of the
Panama canal defense forces and
should be trained by American officers
for use in case the, canal or the repub-
tic We're attacked.
General Edwards has had brief
conference with General Esteban
Huertas. the liberator of Panama, who
declared the plan entirely feasible and
promised his aid in the event it was
decided to establish such a native re-
serve force.
1t is said that practically all of the
natives in the interior are excellent
shots and would be perfectly willing to
serve for short time for little pay in
the various instruction camps that
would be established. General Huertas
believed that probably 10000 to 10000
such reservists could be obtained.
The native troops would be Differed
by young PanamanS. schooled by the
American officers. 1t would be in the
nature of national guard of Panama
but would not supplant the present ma
tional police.
General Huertas probably, would be
entrusted with the organization OF the
reserve force under the direction of
! General Edwards. He took part in the
bloodess revolution that freed Panama
! from Colombian domination and made
! the present republic of Panama pos
sible. He then was in command of the
! Colombian troops stationed in Panama
with which he joined the revolutionists.
| He is trained soldier and has seen
much military service in the various
revolutions that Colombia had to con-
/ tend with before he became Panaman.
! General Edwards has found what he
believes to be an ideal camping and
maneuvering ground for his troops
near Aguadulce in the province of
| Cocle.
Aguadulce is the capital of the prov
/ ince and is practically surrounded by
2. gently rolling plain. almost Enclosed
by low mountains. 1t is plentifully
supplied with water while fodder and
sustenance for the troops and their
! pack animals may be obtained in
/ abundance.
/ His proposal to use these grounds
created much comment in Panama City.
1t was rumored that this was pre-
liminary step of the United States in
! taking over the republic. This, how
| ever. was quickly dispelled when it was
made plain that General Edwards was

Chicago, March 25-Hogs tended
downward in price today owing TO re-
reipts being more numerous than at
the corresponding time week ago
Three days this week there have
been about 79,100 hogs received at Chi
cago, being 1890 less than same days
last week, 300 more than year ago
and 10000 more than corresponding
period two years ago. This week,
though. receipts are considerably less
than same days last week and prices
are sharply lower than that time. This
is due 10 the small outside demand
and leaving the market practically to
the local packers.
Eleven markets received $4,000 hogs

Cattle.
Cattle were comparatively scarce.
An accumulation of cattle in the
three exposed" counties OF Kansas,
Sedgwick. Sumner and Cowley is still
unable 20 get to Chicago. Railroads
have not secured running time con-
cession and the only outlet owners
have is Wichita, OF which they decline
10 avail themselves. Under the cir
giving the carriers little
time on the road would be justified,
as Chicago IS the only spot on the map
capable OF digesting such package.
Railroads are apprehensive that they
could not make the run here in thirty
six hours in which case fines would
amount TO more than the profits on the
business.
At the inception of the grazing sea-
son Iowa is 80 per cent short OF its nor
NAL supply of cattle for summer ma
turing purposes. East Of the Missis-
sippi the deficiency ranges from 80 TO
rs per cent A bad winter market has
hampered the replet!on process even
where quarantine has not prevented
putting in thin cattle. Beef makers all
over the corn belt have been thru the
most disastrous season since 1907.
Kansas has larger bovine population
than a year ago. In Ohio and Indiana
pastures are being plowed.
Sheep.
Sheep and lambs were plentiful. es-
pecially plain and heavy sorts
Native ewes sold at sI.90MsS, which
were prime and of suitable weight,
choice ones made s..75. Those at $3.50

culls sold downward from $500. Bucks
landed at s6d6.S0, the latter price be-
ing easy to obtain for prime heavy
lots. Not enough wethers and year
lings in the native area arrived TO &C
tually test the market. Some prime
shorn native ewes landed al 500.

CHICAGO, March c5.-Aiehous:i cash
houses that have been closely in touch
with foreign buyers were liberal pur-
chasers Of both May and July wheat,
their buying was conteracted by scat
tered realizing and pressure from some
OF the larger local traders. The de-
cline In May was about the same as
that Of yesterday, while the deferred
deliveries were easier than yesterday.
nothing was heard here OF cash de-
mand and local operators We're i'm
pressed by rumors Of important politi-
cal developments abroad. On the other
hand a cargo Of Canadian wheat was
reported sold for export late yester-
day and total sales today were placed
at 100000 bushels. A sharp reduction
an the Russian wheat crop passed
practically unnoticed. Foreigners show
a disposition to buy our wheat but are
not pressing the market
Corn-While a slight Improvement
was noted in the cash demand for
corn the market was heavy and closed
ut about 1-cent decline. Local receipts
today were only forty-one cars. the
smallest on the crop but the cash
market showed no more pep than the
futures. A small sale was made by
seaboard exporters to Cuba Today's
clearances were $4,000 bushels and the
official total for February was 7,390,0
bushels. against $4,000 bushels last
year. While the domestic situation
does not warrant improvement in buy
ing it seems inadvisable to sell corn,
except on sharp advances.
Oats-Without help from other
grains oats were easy. especially for
the nearby delivery. Commission
houses were free sellers OF May while
spreadgs were buying the July and
selling May. This resulted in a de-
cline Of about * cent in the nearby
month while the later deliveries closed
unchanged. Local cash sales were
small at $1,000 but the seaboard re-
ported export sales Of 1,0o0,0 900 bushels.
Clearances were heavy at $500 bu-
shells.
Provisions-One of the largest pack
ers, in buying lard early, caused a
fair advance in that commodity, the
rest of the list sympathizing. Other
packing interests and scattered hold
ers were sellers on the advance and be-
fore the close practically all the early
/ gain was lost. The western hog run is
liberal for this season and is against
tfhe market.
