Chicago, Feb. S.-Falling off in ship
ping demand had a weakening effect
today on the hog market.
Receipts for the nrst naf OF the week
total about $4,000 head, being So,soo
less than same days last week, sS,ooo
less than year ago and 6S,ooo less
than corresponding period two years
ago.
Eleven markets received $4,000 hogs
Wednesday. or 1o,100 less than last
Wednesday, 200 less than year ago
and $4,000 less than two years ago. To-
tai thus far this week 322, 900, or 1885,

and 10000 less than corresponding

Cattle.
Scarcity OF cattle at other western
points tended to uphold cattle quota
lions here.
Biggest share Of the supplies OF good
steers still showed 15@25 cent gain on
last weeks closing rates, and In the
case of $1l and higher kinds, bulk were
% cents higher. On the medium stun
it was mainly a 10@15 cent rise over
late last week, due TO recession TO-DAY
of part of the Monday rise. and In the
case of a lot of poor light steers cash
ing in all the way down to $3.50 and
lower, sales were little changed from
last week.
The run at 1900 Wednesday made
rs, 900 for three days this week, against
52,SS5 a week ago and 1857 a year
ago. but branch lines in Iowa were re-
ported to be accepting stock in many
cases and three road report for
Thursday which indicated $500 or
more cattle for that days market had
effect in trade after the more urgent
orders were filed prior to the noon
hour today.
Western markets had normal mid
week receipts, total at seven points be-
! ing 1890, against 1880 a week ago,
but the half weeks rum of 10000
showed $1,000 cut from a week ago and
| $4,000 less than a year ago.
Anything like liberal Friday doses OF
supplies was looked upon by sellers az
likely to force further price recessions.

Masonic Temple. Phone 1881
Chicago, Feb. S.-Wheat-Wheat was
heavy during the morning, but on the
decline there was good class of buy
ing Of both old and new crop futures.
The May was bought by local cash in
terests, and seaboard interests were
credited with the purchase Of July. As
a result, local traders who had been
pressing the short side during the
morning attempted to cover shortly aft
err midday and prices reacted to last
nights best closing figure for May and
about cent higher for the deferred de-
liveries. There was export inquiry at
Atlantic and gulf ports and premiums
were firmer. Political conditions were
generally unsettled and will probably
result in sharp breaks.
Corn-Corn was lower early with
wheat, but rallied with that grain and
around midday was slightly above last
nights close. Transportation facilities
are very bad, both in and out Of ter
minal markets. While the price is alb
normal. supply and demand conditions
are also extraordinary.
Oats-Oats showed no independence,
outside trade being limited and local
traders mostly bearish. Cash demand
was somewhat slackened, probably due
to freight conditions.

Corn Deseends With Wheat, But Pres
sure to Sell Is Not Heavy-Oats
Show no independent Action and
Trade Is Of Local Charaeter-Provi-
sions Decline With Cereals and Hogs.

Chicago. Feb. S.-Fresh downturns
in the price of wheat took place today
largely as a result of the unwarranted
sinking Of the British passenger liner
California. Aside from emphasizing
the chances OF a further break between
Germany and the United States, the
destruction of the ship brought into
sharper notice than ever the difficulty
of transporting grain to Europe and
made evident the likelihood of con-
tinued stoppage of export demand.
Word that all Dutch ports had been
closed by the Dutch ministry of marine
gave additional impulse to beariSh sem
timent. Opening prices, whichTanged
from the same as yesterdays tinisnto
a decline to cents, with May at LES
to 1863 and July at LASS to Lazy
were followed by material setback
all around.
The close was weak, unchanged to
N cents lower, with May at 1.6S% to
1853 and July at LAG to 1.461s.
Corn.
Corn sagged with wheat. Selling
pressure, however, was not heavy.
After opening g to % cent down, the
market rallied a little but then de-
scended lower than before.
In the later declines recoveries were
witnessed that were due more or less
to scarcity of country offerings. The
close was firm at shade ia Is cent
net advance.
Oats.
Oats had no independent action
Trade was mainly of local character.
Provisions.
Weakness Of grain and hogs put the
provision market on the down grade.
Ribs especially were depressed.

 The roster of these riders sounds like page from the equestriennic blue book of showdom Among them are Daisy Hodgini, the rider who has created more novelties in the riding world than any other rider. Feats of agility and daring that mystify most tumblers on ground are simply and gracefully done by this fearless rider. One, in particular, is especially daring. Without touching feet horses back, Daisey Hodgini leaps to to the back of running steed, bal ances on hands perfectly for moment, and then makes back plunge. into a perfect somersault to land in almost the same spot when standing on the ground before the jump.
 Other riders with the circus art Irene Montgomery, Albert Hodsin, Virginia Dare, who dares to do any thing on horseback; Carrie Royal the Rhoda Royal family, and the Hob son family, Homer, Stella and John.

A few years ago a doctor, up North, somewhere, named Osler, an alleopath, Osteopath, or some other kind of a path, came out in print, proclaiming the doctrine that people over 50 years of age were no good, and should be killed off to make room for oth- CTS. And now comes a celebrat- ed physician, of New York, with the cheering news that the prime of manhood is the decade be- tween 60 and 70 years. AS a matter of fact, both of these the orists are wrong. Some people are good at 80 or more, and some are not worh a "cuss' at 40. Age is a relative condition, and hasn't much to do with aman's a ability.
