CONTRACTS FOR GRAIN.
where No Delivery Is Intended They are
Gambling Contracts and Void.


DEs MONIES, la. Oct. 23.-Thc Iowa
supreme court Yesterday rendered an
important decision affecting the Legal
ity of contracts between grain specula-
tors.
In the case OF Councilman Il Co,
versus Manuel l:eichart, brought up
from the Case district court, the court
declared that contracts for gram
where the intention is merely a
speculation ON the chance OF the
rise or fall of the market and no de-
livery is intended, are gambling CON
tracts and void. 1t is not enough TO
render the contract void that the buyer
intends it as gam bling contract unless
the seller participates in that inten-
ton. That is, if in the case at the
bar the defendant, in ordering
the purchase of oats, only intended
a speculation upon margins without
the delivery of grain and the plaintIh
purchased the grain for actual deliV-
cry it would not be "A gambling con-
tract To make the contract void, a.
between these parties. the intention 10
make u gambling contract must oe
mutual"
1t was held by the court that the
suit under discussion was one in which
NO delivery was intended.

THE OLD CONSTITUTION.
Centennial Celebration Of the Launching
OF the Old War Ship.

of the Old War Ship.
Bosroy. Oct 22.-The centennial OF
the launching OF the United States
frigate Constitution was celebrated
here. There was a parade participated
in by the sailors and marines OF the
United States ships Massachusetts.
Texas, Iowa and Brooklyn, the
naval brigade and the naval or
CARNATIONS. Literary exercises were
held in the Old South church. Gov.
Wolcott presided. Addresses were
made by the chairman. Secretary OF
the Navy Long and Senator Henry
Cabot Lodge. Several hundred school
children sang patriotic songs. Alright
the vessels of the North Atlantic squa-
dron and other vessels in the harbor
were illuminated. The celebration
ended with display of fireworks in
the North End park.
Senator Lodge, in his address, after
dwelling at some length on the history
and victories of the glorious old ship,
spoke particularly of the way IN which
our small, but well equipped, navy OF
that day more than retrieved on the
water the reverses which a tardy adj
mlnistration and a hating foreign
policy had invited on the land.
He said: England and Europe re-
ceIved valuable instructions from the
war of which this battered old ship is
the sign and symbols; but we Ameri'
cans were taught a great deal more.
We had learned that weak defenselcss
ness meant war. and strong armed
readiness meant peace. honor anc
quiet. 1t is well TO note
that the lesson of wise preparation
taught by the war Of 1912. and always
worth remembering, is even more thar
then, for to-day wars are fought in q
few months, while it takes years
to build modern ships anc
cast rihed guns. Weakness and
fear and "Reminiscences mean wa:
and dishonor. Readiness, preparation
and courage mean honor and pence
Where we were unprepared in 1912 we
suffered, where we were prepared W.
prospered and indicated our nationa
existencer
