Kansas City has little or no more elevator capacity than Omaha. The true #rain market commences when an ex- change has betn organized, consisting of a large number of buyers and sellers, some owning elevators or mills, miore owning neither, and regular transactions are dally nd pubMely made, both for ‘cash’ and ure’ accounts. he dealing In ‘futures’ is the method of distslbuting the risk of carrying large quantities of grain among a large number of individuals nd therefore the legitimate trade in ‘futures’ is an essential pagt of a grain market.

' “The rates up to this time have been s0 high that our millers could not enter your market gt all, but have drawn thelr grain from Kansas City.

Whem you get the exchange in operation the grain can be bought by sam- ple. The Minneapolls millers do not buy from the farmers or from the elevators, but go on the floor of the exchange and buy from samples. S0 the exchange is a necessary first step.” FIRE AND POLICE MATTERS Wil Inspect Fire Engine Hou on Wednesday.

PUT HIM UNDER A BAD SPELL Burt County Farmer Sayw Was Hypnotized by the Men Who Swindled Him, e P. E. Taylor, county attorney of Buft county, telephoned the police station last night that two strangers had confidenced August Jucobson, a farmer living” near Oakland, out of $1,500 yesterday afternoon. The two men who got the money arrived in Oakland last S8aturday. They registered at the hotel as W. H. Harris of Omaha and J. B. Culver of St. Joseph. After meeting Jacobson they made a deal with him to putchase his farm, but before the transac- tion was closed they were called away from the town by a telegram. They appeared agaln yesterday morning, and told the farmer that they had located a much better farm than his at a lower price, but did not possess money sufficient to pay for it, and asked him to go in on the deal. It was finally arranged that each was to put in $1,500. Jacobdon drew $600 In cash and got a cashier's check on the Farmers' National bank of Lyons for $1,00. The check was signed by A. L. Cull, cashier of the First Natlonal bank of Oakland. The two men showed Jacobson a roll of money which they asserted contalned $3,000. All of the oash wis placed In a grip, and the grip was put in a buggy which had been hired to transport the trio to the farm which it was proposed to buy. When a short dis- tance' from town one of the men proposed that Jacobson take the grip and go on ahead to close the deal before the other two arrived, as the owner of the farm might be- come suspicious’ that he was getting the short end of the bargain It they all de- scended upon him In & bunch. The farmer was told not to open the valise until he arrived at his destination, and he followed directions. When he did.open it he discovered a brick, a plece of wood, an old hat and & note which read: “At pres. ént we have business in other territory. Will meet you when our remittance arrives Yours, BiL" Jacobson made his way to Oakland as soon’ as It dawned upon him that he had lost his money..

The strike began in 8t. Louls two weeks ago, when the employes of the Pacific E: | press company made an effort to obtain An Incrense of 10 per cent in wages and uniform hours of work. The strike order included messengers and drivers. When. the men made application for reinstatement at the headquarters of the company in this city tonight they were told to make formal ap- plication for employment as though they had never worked for the company. They were also told that they must resign from the Brotherhood of Rallway Expressmen before they would be employed.

In all the eities I visited, especially those lying along the Mississippt river, I saw miles of brick paving, and I gathered all the in- formation about It that I could. The ver- dict seems to be that it is cheaper, easier malntained and more generally satisfac- tory to any traffic that may pass over it than any other kind of paving. ‘‘Another thing I learned was that ma- cadam paving.has proven satisfactory on | resident streets having light trafie. Chi. 0ago. has miles of 1t, as has Milwaukee, Rock - Island, Molin¥ Davenport and Ha- Vaonah, 11l I think that Omaha could well afford o put many unpaved streets in the outer:.distriets In good condition by per- mitting macadgm to be laid. “In advocating brick I shall demand a 800d. quality of the vitrified material. This has 8tood up under heavy traffic and given excellent satisfaction.” ._ The wreck of which Councliman Schroeder sarvivor ‘occurred near LeClaire, Ia., gn the ‘Burlington, as he was going from Savannah to Davenport.

Schroeder was seated in the smoker with several friends when the shock came. ‘Every window in the car was broken and the car itself left standing In an al- most upright position. They were very close to the'river bank, but fortunately were' not thrown into the water. “It came suddenly,” says the counciiman, “and my first sensation was that of fright Finding I was not hurt, however, I scram- bled out to look at the wreck, and it was #0 Interesting a spectacle that I.forgot all about the danger we had just passed through.

Stoves will be placed in the bath or sleeping rooms at all fire engine houses and hot water boflers installed before long, according to the informal action taken by the council yesterday afterncoy. Bullding Inspector Withnell brought the matter up by requesting and’ securing an appropria- tion of §80 for putting In & water heating device and repairing plumbing in the house at Twenty-fourth and Cuming streets, In- quiries brought forth the fact that only four of the fourteen houses are 5o equipped. “This {s shameful,” declared Councilman Huntington, “If & man coming in late at night from a fire—dripping wet and cold, cannot find warmth and & hot buth some- thing should be done at once to change this eondition.” “Yes," remarked Counciiman Back, “there s only one stove upstairs in all the amount demanded, % cents a day, adverse to increasing the wages of the un- skilled men.

The councll declded yesterday afternoon to buy no fire engine until an ofMclal paper Is secured and competitive bids may be requested in a legal way. Representa- tives of the Interndtional and Nott com- panies were present, both declaring they were anxlous for a competitive test of their engines. They ralsed the point rela- tive to advertising, however, and after Assistant Attorney Herdman sald the legal department had decided that no contract for supplies can be made without an offical paper the rouncll agreed to wait until this ‘long desired consummation Is reached. John P. Ahrens, representing the trust, and E. A. Wilkinson for the Nott people acqulesced In this view. A majority. of the council expressed themselves In favor of a test of the engines and both agents evinced a willingness to build engines and put them against each other in Omeha. There was some discussion as to the conditions of the test, but this was dropped in view of the advertising obstacle. Mr. Wilkinson offered to loan the elty a small sized engine for use until an ofclal paper 1s secured, but no aetion was. taken on this proposition. & Councllman Nicholson surprised his col. leagues while denouncing the idea of send- ing a commission to Minneapolls and Cin- cinnati to examine the engines. “I would not trust anyone to go on that mission,” he declared emphatically, *‘I have so little faith in human nature that I awould not even trust myself, In fact, I would not trust any mfen 1 know to make this trip and run the gauntlet of fixing and doctoring to which thiey might be subject. What we Want is a competitive test right here in Omaha in order that this clty may know what is the best engine and buy ft.” By the informal action taken yesterday the councll declines to approve the pur- chase of a “Metropolitan” engine, as ad- vocated by the mayor and advisory board; and hangs the whole matter up indefinitely. e————— I Dipgenes Came to Chicage. “What do you think would happen if Diogenes were to go through the streets of one of our big citles with his lantern looking for an honest man?" “The chances are,” answered the Chi- cago man, “that some footpad would hold him up and take away his lantern before he had gome three blocks."—Washington Star.
