WEEKLY GRAIN AND
PROVISION REVIEW

Chicago, ILL.,, Dec. 6.-Anxiety
coal shortage, together
with the fact that the visible sup
ply Of corn is one of the smallest
on record has tended during the
last week to make corn prices
average. higher. Quotations this
compared with a week
ago varied from sc decline to
gains Of 21lc. Oats showed an ad-
vance Of &c to &C.. In provisions,
the net difference ranged from Cue
loss to $3.50 upturn.
Although month end liquidation
on the part Of the holders who had
no government license brought
about something of a tumble of
prices In the corn market, the drop
was soon more than Offset by at
tention to the scantiness Of the
stock of corn here and at other
primary centers and by anticipa-
tons that as result of coal strike
developments the movement Of
corn from sources would be more
restricted than had before seemed
likely. Shutting down of big in
dustries, however, as well as new
low records for British exchange
did much to temper hullish senti-
ment later, and so likewise did evil
dence that reduction of general
freight had enabled railways to en-
large their handling of corn.
Export sales gave some indie
pendent hrmness to oats.
Slackness Of demand for lard
was . feature In provisions.

Chicago. Dec. 6.-Fresh declines
in the price Of. corn took place to-
day. owing chiefly to the fact that
the market was without any ag-
Sressive support. Lower quota-
lions on hogs tended to promote

rivals Of corn here continued to be
more liberal than was recently the
case. Opening prices, which rang

rally, but then by another sag.

settled. Nc to 19tc net higher, with
January, $1.36 to $1.3eh, and May,

NEED 1000 REDS
FOR MEN INSURED /
WHILE IN SERVICE

Warrington, Dec. 6.-Asking con-
gress for $S5, 900. 900 to build and
equip hospitals to care for war
risk insurance patients, Surgeon
General Blue Of the, public health
service today reported that more
than $4,000 beds would be needed
by July I. 1891.
In estimating the hospital facili-
ties to be needed, the surgeon gen
eral took into account the treat
ment Of selective service men
passed by local boards, but later
rejected at the camps. Legislation
providing for their treatment by
tho government has passed the
house and now awaits senate ac-
ton.
DR.. Blue also recommended that
the medical attention also be ex-
tended to men who are suffering
less than 10 per cent disability
from war service, declaring that
these men eventually would suffer
nervous disability unless given
proper treatment now.
Their immediate treatment" he
added. would save the government
millions Of dollars In prsventing or
deferring payment Of compensation
and insurance claims under the
WAR risk act"

RUMORS AHOAT
THAT SOUTHERN
ABOUT TO QUIT

Will the Southern be running
next week!
This is the question going the
rounds in this city today and yes
terday. Many are the rumors afioat
about the system, but the general
thought Is that the Rock Island
Southern cars will not be moving
Monday. 1t is reported that only
four carloads OF coal were on hand
In the plant this morning, and the
power generator consumes about
two cars every "a hours. No Off
cial confirmation of this rumor has
been received and 1t is barely pos
sible that cars may be running, but
the wise ones will be near home
