REMARKABLE RISE IN CEREALS.
Never Before Occurred at This Season
of the Year. Causes of the Advance.
Chicago; lir., Ocr. 17. A rise in
the prie of wheat from fifty-three
cents to seventy-one cents, and the
rise in December options from 57 to
721 cents, has occurred under the
most peculiar circumstances Never
before has t e market for all kinds
of cereals and for hogs advanced as
at present, this season of the year
when the new crops are being mar

while foreign demand caused the rise
in grain.

HAS HARCOURT RESIGNED?
Reported That He Has Followed Rose
berry's Example.
London, Oct 14. Sir William
Harcourt, replying to an inquiry on
the subject today, telegraphs that
there is no truth in the report that
he has resigned the leadership of the
Liberal party in the House of Com
mons. '
The St. James Gazette this after
noon, referring to the rumored re
signation of Sir William Harcourt as
leader of the Liberal party in the
House of Commons says it may be
stated that he has arrived at no
hasty decision. He has been dis
satified at being obliged to seek a
I Welsh seat and was disagreably sur
prised at so many Liberals rallying
to Roseberrv's side.
Continuing it says the report of
the intended resignation is semi
official, and there is no doubt that
Harcourt intends to make a sensa
tional move.

TRUNK CONTAINED $60,000,
Was Held Three Years by a Chicago
Hotel for an Unpaid Board Bill.
By Telegraph tc The News.
Chicago, Oct 17. About $60,
000 worth of railroad bonds and
other securities have been found in a
trunk held for a board bill at the
Saratoga Hotel. It has been in the
possession of the hotel for nearly
three years. The documents were
turned over to the chief of police.
The affair is shrouded in mys
tery. The papers are made out in
the name of J. Lawrence School
craft, whose mother lives at Plum
Forge, Va.
Mrs. Beatty, of Richmond, Va.,
is also interested. The chief of po
lice of Richmond believes that he

olina by Congressman Woodard, and
the entire delegation from that State,
and was severely scorched and con
demned by the State press for his
gratuitous and outrageous calumnies.
Now, without any more provocation
than he had on his return from
North Carolina, when caught in the
act of violating the civil service rules
in order to help the McKinley cam
paign, he proceeds in the most vul
gar and venomous manner to insult
and defame the people of the entire
southern country.
This pampered western member of
Cleveland's Cabinet has never
omitted an opportunity during his
official career to make himself ob
noxious to the Southern people.
liis refusal to carry out the provis
ions of the act for the distribution
of seeds to the farmers, through
which he deliberately nullified an
act of Congress, was intended to em
barrass the people of the South, and
was especially aimed at and designed
to oppress the agriculturists of that
section. In this way he also sue
ceeded in removing a large number
of deserving southern women, who
were making a livelihood in the de
partment, from office, and left many
of them, who were supporting fami
lies, penniless
Morton had no provocation what
ever to attack the southern people
at the present time. His clerks were
caught in the act of sending cart
loads of documents, under the frank
of gold-bug Senator Caffery, of Lou
isiana, who presided at the decoy
convention at Indianapolis, during
office hours, for distribution through
out the country, which i& contrary
to the civil service rules Whenac
cused of this clear violation of the
law Morton lost his temper, and in
the most outrageous language denied
the charge. The astute interviewer
saw his advantage, and nursed the
wrath of the Secretary until it cul
minated in giving vent to what, with
all the viciousness he -.was capable
of, be wrote himself, calling the re
porter back and asking him to wait
until be did so.
Among the Confederates and all
Democrats here this uncalled for
and unjustifiable outrage on the
southern people from a Cabinet
member occasions the most intense
indignation, and a meeting will be
called to give expression to their
feelings on the subject.
