I looked up at Crittenden re- proachfully. We had been talking of what to me was a sacred thing Yet he must say, just because did not agree with him. "Oh, the devil!" It was so unnecessary, so inapropos, so inelegant, that l was bound to resent it.
 "Crittenden," l cried, 'please re- member what we are talking about"
 "You needn't be so sensitive" he said, < contemptuously. "I've got more feeling on that subject in a minute than you ever had, or ever will have, in all likelihood"
 "You only think you have," l maintained.
 Haven't you learned yet that l don't think things, that I KNOW them?" he demanded. Oh, it was I who was despotic.
 It was then that a thought came to me, the wonderful thought that perhaps I had found the golden key, a magic one that might open the door to happiness for us both. His desire for fatherhood was so strong that It was almost an opSeSsloH. What might not be done with this key I had found, granting that it was key. To what lengths might not Crittenden go to gain what he wanted, I wondered. How strong, I asked myself, might the influence become, the influence for reform that little child might have, as l had said, before he came into be- ing?
 Nor did the thought that had come into my mind to stay seem unfair. In fact it was golden if, in-

Chicago Grain.

Chicago, Jan. 21.--Corn made further progress today toward a higher price level. Unfavorable weather for the crop movement was largely reported. The close, how ever, was weak, ranging from 3-8 cents net decline to 1-2c advance, with May 135 to 135 Is and July 132 5-8 to 3-4. Oats finished half cent off to 34 cent up, and provis- ions varying from two cents down to 20 cent gain.
 The fact that receipts were not large and that demand was good made the January delivery especially firm. Durinlg most of the day there was not evidence of any selling pres sure on the market other than from pit spectators. In thel last 15 minutes of trading, tho something of sinking spell was witnessed.
 Oats inclined to lag owing to ab- sence of export bids.
 Provisions reflected depression of foreign exchange, but rallied later as result of estimates that swine on farms were much less numerous than year ago.

To Probe Charges That Fingerpoints
 Can be Forged

New York, Jan. 21.-Officials of the International Association for Personal Identification here, an or ganization having for it's object the "finger printing" of every man, woman and child in the United States and Canada, have started an inquiry into the charge made by Milton Carlson, Los Angeles hand writing expert, that finger prints can be forged.
 Carlson says he forged" the finger sprints of a convicted mur- derer in New Jersey in human blood on a butcher knife, making a per feet thumb impression of man Experts, it is said, pronounced it perfect. So far as known, the Cal ifornian is the first man to an nounce successful duplication of finger prints, used for the past 1000 years as infallible means of identification.
 Forged finger prints are possl- blc but ineffective. it is said by of- ficials of the International Asso- citation for Personal Identification here. "A criminal" said the secre- tary of the association, would not have one chance in million of sue cess in fastening crime upon an innocent person by means of a forged finger print. Our researches show that in every case of repro duced print the lines are too pal pably false to deceive skilled eye. They show up under strong mag nifying glass like a rubber stamp or wood engraving and not like the original finger lines which, by req son of precipitation and oil, are clear and sharply defined.
 Handwriting experts may at tempt to discredit finger prints be- cause their use detracts from their business, but the fact remains that human seals, as the finger prints are called, are an unfailing test so far as identity is concerned. They have practically superseded the Der tillon system in New York state but, until the law is changed, the Der tillon must be used in the peniten- tiaries. When the lines are blurred, as often happens, q finger print IS but if they are clear It is infallible evidence, It has been shown that if the finger ridges were shaved off or sandpapered they came back.
 Ut is popularly supposed that finger prints usually are only shown in blood. The fact is that you leave a finger print upon everything you touch. It is quite invisible to the naked eye. The expert, however, will take bit of powder--a dark powder on light surface or a light powder on a dark surface and will quickly develop" the print The powders used are >lampblack, graphite, cinnebar, red and mercu- rious sulphide and dragons blood.
 "Nature has carved on our fingers these seals and they should be put to civilian hs well as police use. Undoubtedly they have been the means of detecting thousands of criminals. Hundreds of individuals who come to New York and are swallowed up in this great city, their bodies finally landing in the morgue, might never be buried in the potter's field if we had nation al finger print registry of civilians
 The New York finger print organi- zation officials say that despite MT. Carlson's charge, genuine finger prints are invaluable aid to identify victims of train wreck $ or other disasters and for ascertaining the identity of persons who have tenn porarily "lost" themselves.

New York Sugar

New York, Jan. 21.-Thc local market for raw sugar was quiet to- day, although the undertone seems to be little easier Some of the Cuba sugar which was offered for January shipment has been with drawn on account of scarcity of tonnage, although there are still Porto Ricos available at 12.75 for centrifugal duty paid. The market closed at 12 cents for Cuban equal to 1904 for centrifugal.
 The market for refined sugar was unchanged with prices ranging from 15 to 16 cents for fine granulated. Refiners continue to allocate limited quantities to their regular custom CTS although general business is still restricted. Receipts of sugar at United States Atlantic ports dur ing the past week were smaller, although meltings were little larg- CT.
