1 here are many GOOD life insurance companies, but among
them all there must be one .-BEST. THE BEST is THE EQUIT
ABLE. If you wish to know why, send for: i, the report of the
Superintendent of Insurance for the State of New York on the ex
amination of The Equitable; 2, for actual results of maturing poli
'cies; 3, for statement of death claims paid in 1894. Then you will
know the three great reasons of The Equitable’s supremacy: 1st,
its financial stability; 2d, its great profits and advantages to living
policy-holders; 3d, the promptness of its payments and liberality
of its settlements.

Chicago ’Change.
Chicago. Oct. 12.—The wheat speculator
scarcely knew whether he was standing on
his head or on his feet today, so quick and
furious wore the vibrations in the price.
The ultimate result in the trading was a
moderate loss to values, but. that slightly
rop resen ted the loss to the scalper, who was
badly whipsawed from start to finish. De
cember wheat opened from 60% to GO^c, sold
between GIV2 and GOVfec, closing at the latter,
%@'Ac under yesterday. Cash wheat was
steady, but closed easy.
Coni moved along in the same old rut.
without undue excitement or flurry. Busi
ness was dull, and what few orders were j
executed Indicated nothing new in the posi- ,
tion of the grain. May corn openpd at 29^
29V&C, sold between 29V4 and 29c. closing at j
29%c, a shade higher than yesterday. Cash |
corn was unchanged, but firm.
Oats—Speculation was dead in oats. Some
peoplo professed to believe that a slight de- !
clinc from present prices would unearth lib- !
eral buying orders, but the ‘prevailing low'
quotations are regarded as a bar to any
further depreciaten. May oats closed un
changed from yesterday. Cash oats were
Steady.
Provisions—The heavy receipts of hogs
are cited as the reason for the inactivity in
products. The hog cholera scare through
the west accounts for the rushing forward
of animals. Under these conditions specula
tion held aloof. At the close today January
pork was 7(&7,/4>c higher, January laid and
ribs each 2Vic higher.
The donieBtfc markets were quiet and un
changed.
