 The bark swung until her bows were strengthened to the ebb tide and with a wild. triumphant yell MT. Gibney ,clasped the honest McGuffey to his perspfring bosom. The deed was done!
 It was dark. however, before they had all the sails snugged up shfpshape. although in the meantime the Quaran- tine launch had hove alongside, in vestigated, and removed those of the crew who still lived.

In the morning, Scab Johnny arrived in a. launch with their other clothes (Mr.' 'Gibney having thoughtfully sent him ten dollars on account of their old board bill, together with request for the clOthes), and when the agents of the Chesapeake sent a watchman to relieve them they went ashore and had breakfast. After breakfast, they called at the office of the agents, where they were cOmplimented on their check for one thousand dollars each.

Gibney how impossible it would be for him, arrayed against the Forty Thieves, to buy any article at req Sonable price, Further: Blumenthal desired to inform MT. Gibney that his (Mr. Gibney's) efforts to buy in the "old horses" would merely result in his running the prices up, for no benef- icent purpose. since 1t wf>s ever the practice of the Forty Thieves to per init no man to outbid them.

I didn't make my money that way, Blumenthal. I'll cast off nay lines and haul away from the dock" and suiting the action to the figure, MT. Gibney departed.
 He went first to the Seaboard drug store, where he Qufzzed the druggist for five minutes, after which he con- tinued his cruise. Upon reaching the Maggie, he proceeded to relate in de tail, and with additional details sup piled by his own ina asination, the story of his morning adventure.

GRAIN

CHICAGO, Nov 15.-Wheat entered into
new high ground on the present bulge, May
making a new high record for the season.
The buying today of excellent char
acter and some of the strongest interests
in the trade picked up long wheat despite
the fact that prices were in new high
ground. There also was buying by eastern
and seaboard houses, and some of this was
put down to foreign account. 1t was diff
ficult to learn the incentive for all of the
enthusiasm on the bull side. AS guess
one would venture the belief that the up
heaval in German government as the result
of the resignation of Chancellor Wirth may
lead to better things in financial circles
of that country. They surely can become
no worse. Cash wheat is not following
the advance in futures, and another half
cent was Topped off the premium for hard
wheat. Liverpool did not respond fully to
the advance in America yesterday, and
advices from there claimed that the Near
East situation was more reassuring. Pr1-
mary receipts were heavy, but shipments
were in excess of arrivals.
Wheat closed strong, &c to 21sc higher;
December, $1.19% @1.19&; May, s1.17@
1.17M; July, SLOTS GLOSS.
Corn said at the highest levels OF the
season. The strong position Of cash corn
in the west as the result of feeding demand
was the basis for the buying. However,
it was not so much the buying as the lack
of selling, which is lifting prices. Local
cash handlers account for the light move
ment to this market to the higher prices
elsewhere. However, there seems to be
more shipping business being done in mar
kets that are higher than Chicago, than
local interests are doing. New York ad-
yised that offers of loaded corn at ninety
cents there are receiving little attention.
Corn closed 1c to 13sc higher; December,

oats reflected the strength in other grains.
Trade was without feature.

Big Liquor Auto
Is Captured After
An Exciting Chase

A Cadillac automobile containing
100 gallons of liquor was overhauled
at o'clock Wednesday morning at
the corner of Marietta and Foundry
streets, after an eight-mtle chase by
County Policeman Cal Gates in the
Lincoln car belonging to the coun-
ty. The two men plotting the whisky
car abandoned their car and escaped.
According to a telephone call to
the county police, the liquor car
knocked down and injured Sheriff
A. w. Smith, of Milton county, when
he attempted to halt the automo-
bile.
Officer Gates, responding to the
telephone appeal for help, sighted
the whisky car on the Howell Mill
road and set out in pursuit, the chase
ending within the city limits.
One of the passengers left his hat
in the whisky car when he made the
haSty exodus.
