NOON GRAIN LETTER.
Chicago, Nov. 16.-Much gossip that
December oats are nearing a natural
limit. The Nov. to Is advance covers
57A to 66ls. Much of his is due 20
the soft corn news, which has turned
foreign demand into oats. Primary re-
ceipts Of corn for the week are so per
cent below last year. Continuation Of
cash corn at the $50 to $500 levels for
better grades influences both corn and
oats. If European oats buyers show pa
tience and diplomacy the oats market
should react , 10 8 cents.

ADMIRAL DEWEY,
 HERO 0f MANILA,
 SLOWLY SINKING
Attending Physicians Ap' prehend Death Will Come
 Within 36 Hours.

Washington, Jan. 15.-George Dewey, admiral of the navy and hero of Ma nila bay, is on his death bed. A gen. eral break down, accompanied by ar terial sclerosis, has shattered the vet erans strength in his S0th year, and tonight he lies at his home with life gradually ebbing away. The doctors say he may live 36 hours. His condi- tion was somewhat improved at lo o'clock tonight, but no hope is enter tained for his recovery.
 The admiral was stricken last Thursday as he was leaving his desk in the navy building, but because of his aversion to any suggestion of fail ing strength and knowing his great recuperativc powers, his physicians would not announce he was seriously ill.
 Mrs. Dewey and the admiral's son George, Jr., are with him, and have been told the end is near.

 l., w. Reid Fails to Qualify.

There were not any clcventh-hour candidates to announce for municipal offices yesterday, and the list closed a; noon with those who had announced nn to Saturday night. That is, the list includes all who had announced except l.. w.. Reid who was to be candidate for alderman from the 1hlrd ward. Mr. Reid misunderstood about a formality, and failed to officially file his candidacy in time to get ms name on the ticket. The bHllot Will contain the following:

 Ben B. Veil,
 c. M. Philpot.
 For police judge
 J. R. Stewart
 Armstrong Barrow.

 Second ward, w. c. McBryde, G. E. i Lytle.
 Third ward J. B. Vinson. U. w.. Poss, E. T. Miller.
 Fourth ward, George Dalby.
 Two Assured of Election.
 The fact that Treasurer Harvey Hogg is unopposed for reelection and l that Mr. Dalby is not opposed as a candidate for alderman from the Fourth ward assures them of cleo ton. as the Democratic nomination IS equivalent to election in Pine Bluff.
 Mir. Reid failed to file his nomina- ton with County Treasurer Parsons before noon because he was under the impression that he would be notified when the nomination fee was desired He learned of his mistake later, but MT. Parsons was unable to accept the tender, his duty being fixed by the county central committee, which des- ignated the time when the list shoulc be closed. The only way in which Mr Reid could get his name on the ticket would be for the central committed to extend the time, and that Woulc mean that others would also have the right to enter.
 The election on January 90 will bt in charge of J. Harvey Means. T. B Gulledge and D. w. Nicks, appointed by the central committee to name judges and clerks, conduct the cleo tion according to rules laid down by the committee, and prorulgate the re suits.
