"1'm so sorry," said Jack, in agony,

that he would better write her moth

home and rewrote it, making it more
personal and not so businesslike Such

with. he felt.
Then he went back to Katie.
"oh. jack" she said, "but 1 haven't
any" She hesitated again. Jack
flushed. He felt cruel to remind her
Of her loss. He hadn't dreamed that
she was an orphan. Somehow he had
always felt that her people lived in
the country, and that she was Just
boarding in the city to work. Surely
he must have misunderstood her hint.

CHICAGO GRAIN.

CHICAGO. February 20.-Dangerous
conditions developing abroad for ex-
port shipments brought about a fresh
decline today in the price of wheat,
Notwithstanding rallies. the market
closed unsettled at u under last night.
Other net losses were: Corn, " to n :
oats, X to l, and provisions, 7h to
37k.
Rather stormy selling took place at
the outset in the wheat market here
regardless of firm quotations at Liver
pool. 1t was evident that holders on
this side were liquidating in wholesale
fashion, many stop-loss orders being
executed. especially in the July option.
During the break which ensued, how
ever. cash and export houses were per-
sistent buyers of the May delivery.
This circumstance and the fact that
some foreign business was said to have
been done at the Seaboard and in Kan
sas City led to a reaction, which was
force. owing in part to word that mill
ers were buying at Minneapolis.
Fears that exports from the United
States might be gravely interfered
with prevented the rallies in the wheat
market from assuming a lasting char
acter. Favorable prospects for the
domestic winter crop counted also to
some extent against the bulls. Advices
regarding the energetic attacks on the
forts at the Dardanelles came too late
to affect the market.
Corn was under pressure from the
bears the greater part of the day.
Domestic buying for industries was
something of an offset at one time, but
the influence Of the big visible supply
and Of the wheat weakness could not
well be conquered.
Seaboard assertions of a big export
call for oats were Intellectual to over
come in that cereal the results OF the
depression of other grain. Traders also

The weekend session in cotton closed
at net loss of 2 points. A moderate
volume of selling, divided between Of
ferings from liquidating longs and
short cotton, put the market to 4
points under yesterdays close at the
lowest, while the steadiness derived
from the large mill takings for the

have stimulated buying but for the
holiday Monday and the nervousness
over the situation abroad
In the weekend statement it was
shown that an unusually large amount
of cotton was af1oat for European
