Thq Tmdtnr VM of Holiday ch»rfcoter—Corn, Oats Mid JPrc*. vliloui

Chicago, Dec. 81.—Wheat today raried its .usual -course at the. end of tli# year and managed to score a. smalladYatice, although trading ir&> of a holiday character, Both foreign and domestic news was ene6uraging as a rule. Corn, oats and provisions' do not sIjqw any substantial change in priaes. is Tbe Liverpool market -was apparently reluctant to extend Its sympathy to the full measure of yesterday's 1 cent decline. It opened: l-2d lower than it 'closed and refcdvered one-baif of that a little later In the day. opening priee was at a decline of 3-8® „l-2c from the previous day's closing priee.

The reagoa for eucli additional heaviness beIpg not very clearly apparent. Rain in In--'gdia was jsaid to hare influenced some of tbose 'Who sold at the. opening. "i Busipess was iiiot enlarged by orders from ^outside..,The short-s^slon tod&y and thg holiday tomorrow ied'to" a general local eyeqing up and as it turned oat, the shorts who wished to square accounts over the pending interruption to business, proved to be in ttip majority.

The market was helped somewhat by ^he report that 200,900 bushels at Buffalo had beejj ordered forward to tbp sefibpard by rail,: presumably for export. Minneapolis g-nd Duluth receipts were 261 cars against 339 last week, and 401 a year ago. Chicago received twenty-seven cars, compared with 191 i*?* year. Export clearaflcgg of wlje^t and" flour were equal to 460,000. iMay wheat opened at from 82 5-8c to 82 3-4c, compared with 82 7-8@ 83e. The lowest quotation at the start w?.s the. bottom price for. the day. A subsequent rise to 83 3-8c was brought about, and the closing, p^ice was 83 1-4c, phowjng l-4@3-8c gain for the day.

Corn was quiet and a fraction lower early but strengthened lq.ter, partly in sympathy with the better tpqe in wheat g-nd the close showed little change. Atlantic port clearances were 762,952 bushels.-M$y opened unchanged at 25 l-2p, Qold between 25 3-8 and E5 5-So, doping ?teady nt ,25 1?@25 5-3c.

MONEY, STOCKS AfMD BONDS.

The Tear Closes In Wall Street With Holiday Speculation. New York, Dec. 31.—The year closed on the stock exchange with typical holiday speculation. Business was at a minimum and represented chiefly the ey^ning up of pld extracts. The railway stocks were practically neglected. The dullness reflected.the unwillingness of the traders to carry contracts over the holiday. Ia the higher priced industrials depression was quite marked. The bears depressed Leather preferred 2 1-8 and the qonjmou 1 1-8 per cent on the news of the death of Mark IJoyt, president of the company. In the subsequent dealings a reoovery of a point occurred in each stock. These early declines encouraged a diiive against the other industrial properties, with the math object of torching out long stock. Delaware and Hudson proved vulnerable and fejl 2 l-8 per cent pn thp theory of Vanderbilt opposition to the payment of unearned dividends. Tobacco yielded 2 3-4 on realizations, but later recovered onehalf of the loss, The scrip was offered freely and left off 2 1-2 per cent lower on dissatisfaction over the non-declaration of a dividend. Sugar suffered from the lack of corroboration of bullish gossip and Manhattan sold oil sharply on profit-taking, following the jump of 1 5-8 per pept on the announcement of th«j denial of the motion to reatrai© the dividend which is payable on Saturday. Chicago Gas, late" in the day, developed exceptional strength, rising 11-4 per cent on covering. The general market clpsed steady but extremely dull. Comparative' figures show fractional losses only in the railways and some material concessions in the specialties.

The bond market was also quiet, the fluctuations in the speculative issues being in? usually narpow. The sales were $986,000.

The total sales of stocks today were 84,206 shares, including American Tobacco 5,200 Sugar 18,100 Burlington 5,400 Reading 6,900.

1,762, Pittsburg, C., C. & St. L. Railway Company vs. John Hays et al._ Jay C. C. Rehearing denied- Lotz, C. J. (1) The appellate court has a right to construe and fepply the constitution. There is no reason for holding that, as a matter of law, the right of way of a railroad can not be benefited by a street improvement, and when benefited, it should be assessed. (3) ibe appellate court has jurisdiction to Pass matters involving the form and regularity of ordinances of towns. (4) The presumpt on is always that a street over which a town council asserts jurisdiction to improve it is within the corporate limits of the town. jSfl4«OC«-TJ»W®y,~I'ew Contract. 671. William J.

Some eurioua funeral rites were observed at Arr$s the other day. Just as the' grave was about to be closed over the remains of a "jolly good fellow" one of his mourning friends stepped forward and obeyed the dead man' sinstructions by pouring a measure of gin into the grave, accompanying the libation by a few rhetorical phrases. Then from another vessel he filled glasses for all the mourners and after this the party adjourned to a neighboring tavern, where the memory of the departed was drunk.

inating on account of„a few. words S^d by Mrsj Cunningham a round-elbowed dame, to Mrs. Ritchie, who resides two or three houses west of Mrs. Cunningham. A few weeks ago Mrs. Ritchie had a daughter who wedded an ex-convict, and there was old Cain ralsad in the Ritchie premises at tha time, there being Satan's vocabulary and other implements of warfare brought into play, the details of which have been heretofore related in this paper. Mrs. Gufciingham remembered it all, and was telliDg the good mother of the daughter something about the affair, which soon raised a amall riot. Susie Beerman was also in the mix-up, and bricks flew like hailstones for a few minutes. ,Mra. Cunningham was hit with a brick: and. sustained a few bruises. Th,e Beerman giri was .also slightly disabled, but Mrs. Ritchie came clear of the conflict without receiving a scratch. The society circles of Springfield street are: greatly perturbed over the unpleasantness, and predictions are .made that this row is not the end of it

The question, "is natural gas a mineral? is up before the United States I)»strict Court in the state of New York. The question was raised in a suit brought by Uncle Rprn against the Buffalo Natural Gas Co., which has a pipe line extending over into Canada. The appeal is from, a judgment entered in the Circuit Court, which reverse 1 the decision of the collector of customs classifying natural gas as dutiable at 10 per cent. The United States considered the collector's classification proper and that natural gas is not crude bitumen, but an article within the meaning. Of the tariff law which says: "All raw or unmanufactured articles not enumerated in this act, must pay 10 per cent, duty." In behalf of the gas company it was contended that gas is a crude mineral and therefore exempt from duty under the paragraph specified.

Governor Mount will have quite* & number of appointments to make before he proceeds long in his official life. One of the most important is a member of the state board of tax commissioners to succeed Captain D. F. Allen, Democrat, of Frankfort, whose term expires on May 1st. A trustee for the woman's reformatory will be appointed in March to succeed Miss Laura Ream two at the feeble minded school In Ft. Wayne to succeed E. A. K. Hackett, Democrat, and Mrs. Laura H. Bass, Republican a Republican to succeed Dr. J. H. Bogar at the Soldiers' Orphans' Home a Democrat to succeed Captain Dudley J.

The trustees of DePauw University were in session Tuesday., It was their semi-an-nual meeting to look up accounts and run over the budget of business generally. Among the questions discussed was football, the death of John Begley causing somewhat of a discussion. It is sajd that Indefinite action was taken against the game and the matter was postponed until a., future time. It is probable that the coming legislatura will take some action on the subject and if they do, of course, it will apply to the colleges of the state. There Is known to be a feeling among the college officials ovei Indiana that the game should be,either abolished or modified, but there is a hesitancy about taking the inifiatiye, in the .matter, it will probably work out., satisfactorily.— Greencasile Banner-Times.

This is certainly an extraordinary proceeding and especially so on account of the fact that Rhea is pne of the greatest of living actresses.
