Grain and Provisions

DETROIT, July 5.-Close Liver
pool made a big advance while the
American markets were having a
holiday. The result was strong
and higher market in America at the
opening.
Part OF the Liverpool advance was
the result OF higher ocean freight
rates. rhe British markets reported
light offers. small worlds exports for
the week, demand good and only
partly satisfied. continental demand
broadening and unfavorable reports
from European crops. Both cash
and cargoes are quoted much higher.
The tone of American markets was
strong and higher prices were quot
ed. but il is felt that the bulls will
have lots of trouble putting prices
much higher. The market Will have
many breaks, but general conditions
are bullish and dealers believe prices
are in for a substantial upturn.
The great trouble remains in the
heavy burden OF old wheat still on
hand. Much of this grain is OF poor
quality and foreigners are holding
of to see the quality, of the new crop
before investing. Already some new
wheat has been takea for export
and the continent Is known to be In
need OF fresh supplies. The over
supply in the United kingdom is
fast going into consumption. Cash

the former was Edward Tracy, maltster
York, a man of native power and force
and a character with eminences of pc
culiarity. Tracy, who died less than
20 years ago, is still well remembered, a
strong. direct, INSCRIPTIONS man who
knew what he wanted and got it; a
man dominant and decisive, and a man
close mouthed and mysterious.
In those days Tracy kept his resi-

Troy, where he had his. own brewery,

No doubt this underestimation was
due in a great measure to some of his
habits of life, matters which caused,
too, much speculation in other direc-

the old family house with his two spin

to travel and study, gave French les

New York World, Feb. 13)
@1HE other day a woman of sixty,
Mrs. Hortense Pine Tracy
filed suit in the New York
courts to recover a widows
interest in various plots of
ground in New York city on which now
stand the homes of millionaires, hotel
palaces, sky aspiring apartments
houses, luxurious theaters. factories,
shops. breweries. tenements-castles
and rookeries. The property affected is
assessed for s2o,000,00o; the plots in
which this woman asks her widows
share probably at one-fourth that total.
Already, in minor case, the courts
have given a decision in her favor.
The story told here is of a romantic in
terest, involving the lives of four ex-
traordinary personalities and a secret
marriage under strange circumstances.
Behind the monumental claims of
Mrs. Hortense Pine Tracy there is
human complex, secret. n story. And
that story begins As years ago. when
1the first city of the world, today, was
still an inspiration and the hinge for
tunes and mighty glitter of the place

period in which the foundations of

SHORTAGE OF LABOR.

There IS a general complaint
throughout the country about a
shortage of labor, and this section
is no exception. Labor agents
everywhere are offering big in

and board for negroes to work
for railroads IN the north and
east. What has become of the
former surplus of labor is a ques-
ton. Local planters are doubt

The second semester is a busy one for
seniors. Earl Miner, president of the
class, has issued a proclamation that
it is strictly forbidden for a senior to
get married or give much attention to
social affairs. President Miner should
have issued his decree before one Of
the members broke over and was mar

number of seniors will be further
