New York, Sept. 1S.-A dispatch
from London says English wealth
is equal to $4,000, OOO,O 900, of which
one-half is offset by debts.
Interest will again center upon
the developments of steel labor
matters. 1t is feared that ii gen
eraI strike comes it will have
more far-reaching effect than is
now thought On account of the
decentralization of foreign exchange
a gloomy feeling prevails in the
street. This is being felt to an IN
usual degree, also, on the Royal
Dutch exchange.
Those who sold stocks short will
want to buy them back, especially
if any favorable action can be tax
en- by Gompers to stay the strike
movement The short side is al
ready crowded and it will take lit
tie encouragement to induce bears
to attempt to cover.
Nothing has transpired to justi-
fly a hope that the steel strike viii
be averted, labor leaders say.

CORN TRADING
CROWS UNEASY
over OUTLOOK
Nervousness Over Labor Situation,
Especially the Steel Strike,
Shown by Market.

Chicago, Sept. righteousness
over the labor situation, especially
the uncertain outlook regarding
the steel strike, resulted in an IL
regular opening today in the corn
market. Little pressure to sell,
however, developed, and with COM
mission houses absorbing most of
the offerings more confidence in
the buying side was shown. Never
theless advances were not we'll
maintained Opening prices which
ranged from 112c decline to q c
advance, with September $143@
1881, and December $1.21@121%
were followed by a moderate up
turn all around, but then by some
thing of a reaction.
Scantiness of arrivals gave indie
pendent firmness to oats. After
opening &c off to &c advance, in
Guiding December at Csc to 6Shc,
the market scored a substantial ad-
vance.
Provisions were dull and weak
There was an absence of any ag-
gressive support.
Spectators, who took a bearish
view of the likelihood of a steel
strike, found difficulty later in COW
ering their sales. Scarcity of rural
offerings tended to lift the market
after every dip. The close was
strong, 212c to &C net higher, with
September at 1471a and December
at l24A to 1.25.

OPERATORS OF
WHEEL BUSTED
BY THE MAYOR
ALEDO OFFICE

The whir and click of the ivory
ball on the Moss Bros. carnival
roulette wheel housed in a tent
on North College avenue near the
postoffice attracted a prominent
Aledo citizen as he drew near the
attraction.
Ten cents a chance Pick your
number. If the ball stops at the
number of your choice, you win.
Thus the lingo of the barker.
Prizes were cute little dolls, candy
and various other minor articles.
Just the thing, a doll for the
baby. Mr.. Prominent Citizen hes
itated and was lost. One dime
gone-the little ball just missed
his number. A sister coin followed
into the pocket of the wheel ten
der. But that was close, surely
Dame Fortune would smile on the
next turn. Another dime followed
on the trail of the others. without
decrease in his stock of dolls,
candy or miscellaneous articles.
Mr.. Prominent Citizen moved re-
luctantly on.
Others who watched became su5-
picious. Consequently a complaint
was registered with the city au-
thorities.
Mayor c. A. Beers, accompanied
by Chief of Police George Reed,
swooped down upon the enthusiast
tic roulette men. An order from
the officer effectively stopped pro-
ceedings in three booths. Despite
immediate and strenuous protests
of the carnival authorities the or
der prohibiting play was not re-
scinded by Mayor Beers.
Legitimate devices for pleasure
and amusement will be permitted"
declared the city's executive. 81 do
not intend TO permit the sWindling
of Aledo people, however, and will
employ all means at my disposal
in preventing fraud and humbug.
Shady and questionable schemes
or devices or those in which the
element of fair play has been elm
mated will not be countenanced."

CATTLE SAVED PROM nROUGHT

Assistance to stockmen OF the
drought northwest by the
United States department of agri-
culture, the state agricultural col
lege, and state departments of ag-
ricultUre have been effective in re-
lieving the situation and in facili-
tating the transfer to new pas
lures and the marketing of much
endangered stock. Temporary Of
fees have been opened in South
Omaha, South st. Paul, Billings,
Mont, Kansas City and Chicago,
where as accurate information as
possible is assembled on market
conditions, the movement of stocker
and feeder cattle, feeder lambs and
breeding ewes, and available feed
supplies. Information concerning
the run Of stock to market is dis
tributed among farmers in the corn
belt, and that concerning feed sup
plies among stOckmen in the
droughty area.

Chicago, Sept. 1S.-The grains

Weakness in foreign exchange ere
Aates a rather gloomy feeling in
financial circles. Gary insists on
open shop in the steel industry,
which leaves the question where
it was at the start of the agita-
ton.
The great 4S-day break is gener-
ally regarded as being completed.
Many believe $50 a limit for Sep
TENDER corn. One cash man guess
ed 100000 bushels new corn sold
to the east for deferred shipments.
Outside markets are guessed as
about sold up on rye for future
shipments for a time.
Many traders fear there will be
no frost scare in corn this season.
Grain Opinions.
Gray-Feel that it will be the
part of wisdom not to ignore prof
its on all healthy returns.
CIement-Market will follow the
disturbed labor conditions; the
outcome being yet in serious doubt
Good rains throughout the corn
belt make pasturage, and any les
SEEMING of corn shipments will have
little effect
Thompson - Until some settlsx
ment of the industrial question is
arrived at there is not likely to be
any broad market. Quick changes
are to be expected, on any recur-
rent rumors until this matter is
threshed out, or a strike results.

summation so devoutly wished by
all peoples, kindreds and tongues.
What we say here will be little
needed, but the memory OF what
you and your gallant men did over
there will be cherished forever, as
part of the precious treasures of
the mighty republic.
General, you commanded more
than any other American soldier
ever cOmmanded-more, we hope,
than any other American will ever
command, for every sane and patri-
otto American most fervently hopes
that our country, so favored by
heaven in all that makes for true
manhood and womanhood, will
never be involved in another war.
"Of all your actions the one for
which we are most profoundly
grateful and for which we love you
best was that you strongly and
triumphantly insisted that you and
your men would fight only as an
American army and not merely as
replacement troops for British,
FSench, Italians or Belgians. Thak
feat was the acid test of your TO
bust Americanism. 1t caused all
our hearts to Cwell with TIMETABLE
pride and entitlssi you TO our eter-
nal gratitude
Extraordinary military rank
should be conferred only for extra
ordinary services in the field. In
appreciation Of your services. the
congress, voicing the sentiments o.
the American people, have con-
ferred on you in perpetuity the eX-
traordinary rank of full general
the highest military honor within
our power to bestow. and in hon.
oring you we feel that We are hon
Oring ourselves.
In addition to the permanent
generalship, the congress has ten
dered you individually and to your
officers and men en- masse the
thanks of the American people and
of congress of the United States
rare honor in itself conferred in
oUsA entire history on only a very
few of our distinguished citizens
for extraordinary services to the
republic.
Formal Message of Thanks.
The resolutions Of thanks is in
these words:
1.-The thanks of the American
people and of the congress Of the
United States are due, and are
hereby rendered. to General John
]. Pershing, for his highly dis
tinguished services as commander
in-chief of the American Expedi-
tionary Forces in Europe, and TO
the officers and men under his
command for their unwavering
duty and valor throughout the
war"
In conclusion the former speaker
paid a tribute to his native state
and explained why he had been
selected to speak. saying:
THE chief reason why the com
mittee of arrangements appointed
me for the most pleasant function
is the fact that you are not only a
great American but also the fore |
most living Missourian than which |
there is no finer type of American |
while l happen to be the dean OF
the Missouri delegation in con-
gress. 1 am proud and happy to
present you as exhibit A. showing |
for the whole world what sort of
men Missouri grows when in her
most prodigaL of moods"
