Illinois Partly cloudy with possibly local showers north tonight or Thurs day: slightly warmer tonight. Indiana Partly cloudy tonight and Thursday. HEARD ON THE BOURSE. Ware & Leland There seems to be sufficient underlying strength to the wheat market to warrant higher prices and we would suggest purchases now. Clement Curtis Demand for wheat for immediate use is pressing closely upon the receipts and the stronger tone is developing which will show itself in a good advance from this level. Finley, Barrell & Co. From an investment standpoint, we believe adspots in order to make purchases of wheat. i I Logan & Bryan The action of the wheat market In advancing, in the face of slow trade, gives much encouragement to the bull side. December ccirn at its discount under September looks attractive and on reactions the future months, we think, should be purchased. Pringle, Fritch & Co. We cannot advise buying of wheat on bulges Just now, but we do counsel purchases on the weak places. Corn is largely a question of receipts, and if the present movement should fall oir sharply within tne next lew days we believe we will see another advance in prices.

Court Tells Him It Will Be H?jd Winter For Men Who Won't Support Wives. The Affinity Seekers club paced South Chicago on the black list following the f.ne imposed upon Robert Sheppard by Judge Torrison of the South Chicago branch of the Municipal court. Sheppard, who is one of the most influential men in South Chicago, is alleged to have deserted his wife, Mrs. Mathe Sheppard, who for months has been an Invalid in her home at 601S Washington avenue. He protested against the fine, but finally paid it and walked out of th courtroom. Mrs. Sheppard swore out a warrant against her husband. The latter de nied the charges and declared he was merely a boarder at Miss Fields home. Judge Torrison, however, rejected the plea. "The evidence is against you," said the Magistrate. "This is going to be a hard winter for affinities in Chicago. If a man won't give his money to his wife the next best thing he can do is to give it to the city; it needs the money." Sheppard talked of appealing! the case but changed his mind.
