WHEAT’S SENSATIONAL ADVANCE

Exciting Scenes on the Floor of Chicago

Board of Trade.

Press accounts of the sensational ad-
vance in wheat sent out from Chicago,
say: During the regular session of the
Chicago board of trade, September
wheat gained 5 7-8 cents. On the curb,
after regular hours, an advance of three
cents was made, September selling freely
at 96 cents.

The wheat pit on ’change today pre-
sented a scene of activity, the like of
which hes never been witnessed since
the palmy days of B. P. Hutchinson,
familiarly known as ‘“‘Old Hutch.” The
exact opposite of Ed. Partridge’s famous
raid in 1891 was in progress. That
plunger began his operations on the
short side of the market during the
spring of 1891, and forced the price from
in the nineties to 60 cents. “dodey the
advance Placed wheat on the ground
occupied before the raid, and in a posi-
tion for even farther appreciation.
The advance today was by no means

- merely a Chicago bulge. Liverpool
started it, the English markets showing
a uivalent to 434 cents
bus! el, very American market fol-
lowed the example, New York gaining
53g cents, St uis 4 cents

northwestern markets 6 cents. The

“Ordinarily by the sound of the
voice,’”’ replied the professor, ‘except of
course when I have a chance to examine
@ person’s head. A man’s voice either
repels or attracts me, and never yet
have I been mistaken in judging a man
by his voice when it has been put to a
test. Some voices facinate and thrill
me just like a beautiful person would
some person. If a man is coarse by na-
ture it is sure to flavor his voice. ‘It
like a clear bell with a crack in it.”

if anyone 13 in it?”

finable feeling that tell me human bee
