to 9l%. but closed at a loss Of half a
point. For the first time In many weeks,
steel surrendered leadership at the most
active issue to Mexican Petroleum, the lat

New York. Feb. 14-Bradstrsets tomor-
row will say:
The trade advices are . shade more
cheerful, the movement Of peace time in
dustries outside Of textile lines, Is a trifle
faster, and collections are a bit better.
These statements, Of course. must be
taken with knowledge Of the fact thar
buying especially of wearing apparel at
wholesale, is conservative and not equal
to that Of a year ago: that rain or snow
the country over has checked country
trade and marketing OF products, espe-
cially Of corn and hogs at the vest that
lower cotton prices discourage southern
buying and promote talk Of crop area re-
auctions; that a great many textile mill
hands are striking or otherwise idle, pend
ing the settlement Of the shorter week
issue, and that the number OF unemployed
Is larger, owing mainly to the continued
release OF men from the army.
The key 70 the whole situation seems
still to be the matter OF prices and here
two great industries, textile manufacturing
and Iron and steel production, are alike
sufferers, though dssimlar in this, that
while steel mills, running at full In some
instances, and eating into the back log OF
untitled orders, the supplies OF textiles
are certainly not being increased greatly
by the short time ruling.

Life Insurance Has
Been Increased by
Influenza Epidemic

The "flu" epidemic has increased
the life insurance business very
greatly, says Ed Wolverton, star
agent of the New York Life Insur-
auce company.
Mr.. WoIverton has just received
word that only IL agents in the Unit
ed States wrote more applications
than he did last year. He was also
one Of the first to qualify for mem
bership in the 100000 club" for 1910.
This club is composed of all agents
who write more than 100000 irsur-
ance in each year ending July !.
WoiYerton has written S2S0.O00O
with FIVE months still to 60. He IS
now vice president Of the club which
is international in scope.
Mr. Wolverton says life Insurance.
statistics show that 100000 people
persisted from Spanish influenza
thro' .ghout the world in September,
October and November of last year.
Never since the great black
death epidemic has such a plague
swept the world" he says.

Temporary Foot Bridge to
Replace F Street ViaduCt

A temporary foot bridge is being
constructed to replace the F street
viaduct which burned down last
fall. The construction work is be-
ing done by the Missouri Pacific
Railroad company, sanctioned by
the Union stock yards and the
Union Pacific Railroad companies.
The need OF such a bridge has
been keenly felt by residents in the
west F street section. High school
children have had to make a de-
tour of more than a mile in going
to school. Their only alternative
to this detour was to cross nu-
merous railroad tracks where
switching is done.
The construction of foot bridge
will be only temporary, according
to officials of the Stock Yards COM
pany.

MANY "CHICKS"
DUE TO ARRIVE
IN SNOWY WORLD
Peters Milling Company Set
lnCubatOrS During Warm
Days; Will Ship to
Outside States.

Several thousand very cold little
Chicks" will be Matched at the NJ,
c. Peters Milling company, Twenty
ninth and B streets, unless there IS
a sudden change of temperature.
During the warm days of a week
or so ago 4 large quantity of eggs
were placed in the huge Peters in
cubators. The Chicks" are now due
to arrive in a cold, snowy world.
The poultry extension depart
ment of the Peters Milling CONF
pany, which is in charge Of O. G..
Ufford, formerly poultry expert at
Ames (Ia) university is receiving
orders for hcicks from states as far
west as Wyoming, as far south as
Texas, and as far east as Illinois.
Chicks may be shipped to any point
that can be reached by express or
parcel post within " hours, acc
cording to o. d. Peters.
Mr.. Peters explains that por-
ton Of the yolk Of the egg remains
in the abdomen Of the chick which
must be absorbed as food before the
chicks are fed, 1t requires almost
70 hours for this assimilation, and
by the time the chick begins to get
hungry 1t has arrived At its desti-
nation.
To Build up Floeks.
1T is our purpose in Matching
baby chicks" said Mr.. Peters, ITO
place them on midwest farms and
ranches to help build up better pro-
dueing fowls. 1t doesn't cost any
more to feed real producers than It
does scrubs. Our eggs are all care
fully selected. Visitors are welcome
at any time, and any assistance we
can render poultry raisers is free
of charge.
Over 100000 chicks will be hatch
ed by the Peters Milling company
this spring. Their four incubators
have a total capacity of $4,000
chicks at one Matching.

Chicago, Feb 14.--Heavy selling to re-
alize profits brought about downward
swings today in the corn market. Prices
closed nervous, ~ to Shc net lower with
May S1.20A TO 1.2Oh and July s1.17 to
1.17h. Oats finished l to INC off
and provisions at decline OF is to 65c.
Notwithstanding that the corn market
fluctuated rapidly, the general trend was
downgrade throughout the session,
though much OF the selling was on the
theory that yesterdays advance had been
too sudden and that a setback, whether
lasting or not, appeared certain. 1t was
pointed out that the bulge had curtailed
shipping demand, whereas consignment
notices from the country had to some ex-
tent increased. Moreover. misgivings as
to i'll effects from the blizzard were less
in evidence, and there seemed no longer
any sign of the furry over President Will
sons remarks about fresh trouble with
Germany. Most Of the buying today was
ascribed to big eastern shorts, anxious to
withdraw from the market.
Oats gave way with corn. II was said
no export bids were in sight.
Provisions jumped to the maximum
limit but then offerings became free and
a sharp break ensued. the first in about
a week. Houses with stock yard affilia-
tions were conspicuous in the selling.
