GRAIN CniCAOO. Iec. 31. December corn slumped from 4TSc to 46c Saturday au.I a used Mim u intra 1 selling throughout tbe vralu Hit. but declines lu tbe deferred futures atnouotet to amall fraction, which were later recovered, uud at the close wheat waa c higher than Friday; corn va unchanged and oata Vsc lower. It was the last day of Iteceinber contracts ad It wua thought tbnt tbe aborts In com would be gtveu a severe twist, but It developed that tbe bears had covered and tlut auinll bull accounts were outstaudlnit. There waa bullish news from Aigentluu and the weather over our belt was ideal for uioveineut. Tbe Oneness la the May and July optlous was due to good buying by Armour and tba staf reports, together with Crop Export Imjlls" report, lndliuted that the Anal gc.nerun.en t figures were a great de.il too large. There was considerable cribbing of corn reported all over and this was regarded ns a bullish influence. Tbe primary receipts were 740.000 bu; last year wos n holiday. In the wheat pit there was a mlid bull demonstration at the outset: prices opened uucbauged and moved up ie on general commission bouse demand. Liter the weakness In corn carried values down S on sympathetic selling, but at the close there was some good buying. It was a holiday In Liverpool; Tarls closed c to Hfcr lower; Berlin e lower; Antwerp unchanged and I'.udapet :c Ulhi-. The foreign nummury of crop coudltiona reported by U room ball was aouiewh.it more favorable. In tbe southwet t tbe weather was cold but the forenst ludlcated moderating temperatures and snow. ueaplte the rilslng of the Canadian crop flzuies to I30.ou0.0ii0 bu yield the Winni peg market remained tlrm. Minneapolis wired nn excellent demand for ensb wheat, especially for choice No. 1 northern North inko(a. wblcQ is tiecoming very scarce. Mills reported fairly good sales of flour over nUht. Primary receipts totaled 500.000 bu. Oats were extremclr dull and lust n shade firmer nt the outset. Speculative commitments followed the trend of the corn pit In a small way, the December option sold off S ou final evening ui of contracta: May and July remained Urm The trade waa light and of a professional nature. Provisions were higher with the strong hog market at tbe (dockyards. OSerluga were light; trade feuturelesa. CHICAGO. (By A. W. Thomson Co. Closing Articles. Open. High. Low. Dec. 31.

WALL STREET NEW YORK. Dec. 31. TLere wise a ll.ht attendance upon tbe stock exchange floor Saturday during the first hour and price making was a matter of minor importance. At the end of the hour less than 40,000 abares hud been dealt in aud this was scattered throughout the list. Fluctuations were withlu a half point range and values ruled from , to polut lower than Friday'a finals. Steel common was S lower, L'cion 1'acific, Ueadiug aud Lehigh Valley each U down. operationa were entirely professional. In the London market American ahares closed to below parity; copper Usuea were Leavy. The second and closing hour developed very little mora busiuesa tban was transacted In the first hour. Values were pressed for sale by profeasiouals. Amalgamated copper was especially heavy, losing a poiut. The weakening influence was the heavy copper shure uiartet In London. Steel coumoD waa sold down, tboua not vigorously. The lowering of tb? price lex el waa largely due to lack of support und not to the result of any uuuard ct lopaients ; floor traders who were long of stocks decided that it was a good idea to even up or lighteu their load over tins holiday.

Wall street summary Saturday: Further sugar frauds on the customs disclosed at New Orleans and fan I'rauclsco. Continued political unrest in Portugal.

"Ve have talked with several of the largest consumers of the metal this week, and they express tbe opinion that the cui tnllaieut of productlou which has already taken place has beer, sudi.-leut to keep production below consumption und rl;at te metai mar Let Is lu a strong position.

An official statement from the Bank of France Friday explains that the institution's suspensiou of the sale of gold was in no wise directed against America, but was a measure for the protection of the bank's fold reserve, owing to the Uemauds Iioduced as 11 result of bad crops m France, which necessitated the purchase of foreign cereals. "Since November," said au officer of the bank, "the Back of France has declined to furnish gold. e refused Herniary and Austria, and a few days ago Holland. Our gold reserve stands 5210.000,000 francs below that of a year ngo. r ranee is now purchasing large quantities r cerosis rront tne uaiK.ni. itussia aim America to supply the French delicti, nud ior that nurno.-e gold is needed." This offieial explained also that the bank has 1 ow discontinued buying t-ngiisn paner for its "foreign portfolio." i,ut for n dif ferent reason, namelv. that the rate of discouut made it uuproiltuble. Consensus of opinion in Fteel circles is thru uo reduction In ?-tcel prices wtil be made at the ineetinrs iu January of steel producers. Commenting upon the situation a representative of a promiueut iudefendeut steel company said: "I do not believe a reduction from the present level of prices would bring in any business to peak vt. it must be taken luto considera tion that costs have been advancing aud steel couipauies are making little if auy money ou u oasis or present prices, a general reduction in prices would put certain luuepeudeuf steel companies out cf business, aa they could uot ooerute. at a profit." Boersaiuer. reviewing the security market, says: liouds were again in broadening inquiry. with Loudon a pronounced buyer. Cable grams stated that negotiations were on between English and American bankers for the sale of several large blocks of railroad mortgages. If the question of terms be met London will take on these securities privately; that is to say. the transactions will not be recorded on tbe stock exebauye. Iu stating ttf?e facts it must he noted that there is an inclination iu stock exchange circles to exaggerate the importance of tbe increased demand for coupon value. In the condifions the bourse is most prone 10 mist.ike possibilities for probabilities and actualities, and to spin grandiose theories oa a somewhat narrow- foundation of fact. Some board members, who are unconsciously perhaps exaggerating the breadth and 'depth of the bond market, appear to have only a limited knowledge to cool their ardent imagination The facts, of course, are that the sales of bonds iu the last fortnight had hoon below the amount disposed of in Ijecoaiber of other years say the last five years with the obvious exception of 1307 And this notwithstanding the record distribution of dividends and interest wbiob will bo made nest week. , However, the activity in the bond market is highly satisfactory compired w-ith what was done In the preceding eleven months. Bnd men themselves hardly hoped for the revival now on : they bad become resicned to a continuation o? the inactivity. Having taken their cue from the skeptical neutrality of Wall street, thev did not look for business of any consequence until the interstate commerce commission shall have delivered Its freight rste flat.

HEALTH RULES FOR SCHOOLCHILDREN In Alphabetical Order, Dr. Stotelmyer, a Trustee, Sounds His Warnings.

Alphabetical health rules prepared by Dr. C. I. Stotelmyer. a practicing physician at Hagerstown, and trustee 1 of Jefferson township, will be distrib uted among the children attending the Wayne county public schools, and also will be given a prominent position in the annual statement by county sup erintendent C. O. Williams, which j deals exclusively with school matters and is distributed among the teachers. The A B C's of good health, coming as the do from an authority on the subject, undoubtedly will create much impression upon older residents as well as the school children. Being approved by the county board of education and the county superintendent, these simple rules for good health, one for each letter in the alphabet, will be followed closely in the Wayne schools. School children will be urged to read the rules carefully and parents are requested to assist the teachers in having them obeyed. The injunction against kissing will be a blow to many. Consumption is the disease which Dr. Stotelmyer hopes to stamp out among the school children. His rules are directed primarily as a preventative of this disease. However, he also avers that there are many other contagious diseases which In many cases could be prevented by living up to these instructions. The Stotelmyer rules follow: Stotelmyer'a Alphabet. A is for Anybody who can help prevent consumption, a child just as w ell as a grown person. B is for Breathing which you should learn to do deeply. Take deep breaths in fre6h air often. C is for Coughing, which you should never do in any one's face, nor should you sneeze in any one's face. Turn away your head and hold your hand before your mouth. D is for Don't. Don't swap apple cores, candy, chewing gum, half eaten food, whistles, bean blowers, or anything you put in your mouth. E is for Eating no fruit that has not been washed or peeled, or anything that is not clean. F is for Fingers, which should not be put in the mouth, nor wet to turn the pages of a book. G is for Giving good example to your fellow pupils and playmates by being always neat and clean, just as much so at home as at school. H is for Handkerchief, which 6hould be used only to wipe your nose and not your slate, desk or shoes. I is for Illness of other kinds besides consumption, which following these rules will help prevent such as colds, measles, grippe, diphtheria and pneumonia. J is for joints, where children have tuberculosis more often than in their lungs. K is for Keeping your finger nails clean. A scratch from a finger nail may make a bad sore. L is for Learning to love fresh air, and not for learning to smoke. M is for Mouth, which is meant to put food and drink Into, and not for pins and money, or anything not good to eat in it. N is for Xose, which you should never pick nor wipe on your hand or sleeve. O is for Outdoors where you should stay just as much as you can. Always play outdoors unless the weather is too 6tormy.

NEW YEAR'S EVE IN PARIS. Stirring Description of tha Scene In tha Graat City's Markets. .After having chanced to spend a New Year's eve lu nearly every country in Christendom, writes a correspondent of the Pittsburg Dispatch, it is my opinion that there is more bewilderment to gaze upon cud more bedlam to hear lu aud around the "halles" of Paris than can be found compressed in any other spot on earth. The halles are tn markets of the vast city, the center into which pour thousands of trains and vehicles of every sort, from all the country round and from which issues the food supply that keeps 3.000.00O people from starviug. Even on tbe most ordinary night of the year the great Taris market is a place of entrancing interest Victor Uugo describes it in several of his novels. Other French authors have chosen it as the chief tscene in their works. Zola's "The Stomach of Paris" treats of it, and it figures in no end of melodramas that have been translated into every known language. Moreover. It is so Invariably regarded as one of the great sights of Taris that no foreigner ever comes here without devoting a night to the exploration of the quaint neighborhood. What it is on other nights, however. Is nothing to what all that vicinity becomes on New Year's eve. There is nothing quite like it anywhere else on the globe. Into a space bounded by nearly a dozen blocks and flaring in a light that makes It almost as bright as day comes a huge proportion of the population, some on business, others on merriment bound, and all radiating with noise. Bands of itinerant musicians dot the singing sea here and there, fighting for dear life to keep their feet in the rush, but all the time screeching out instrumental discord. Temporary booths fringo the sidewalks, behind which are peddlers of all sorts shrieking their wares so loud that you might think they were trying to tempt the inhabitants of Mars to come and buy. Every little while you hear what sounds like the sharp report of a pistol shot, but it Is only tb drivers of market wagons notifying the crowds to look out for the wheels, Young men and boys go by in bands blowing deafening horns with an energy that money could not buy. Every human being among the thousands who hasn't a horn at his Hps is using that favorite of all weapons for Frenchmen his mouth in a way that would make a bellowing ' elephant blush with envy. And every one i3 either laughing or doing what repre sents it, for all Paris is merry.
