American hospitals only the coarsest

ELEVATOR WAR APPREnENDED.
Indicated by a Movement in the Chicago
Wheat Market.

Wheat Market.
Chicago, Sept. 15.-What is believed
by many traders to be the probable
beginning of an elevator war was
started i'll the wheat market yesterday.
\ scramble of shorts in September
wheat early in the session added near
ly cents to the price within half an
hour and apparently brought to light
n fight among wealthy elevator firms,
Wcare * Co. Armour & Co. and Pea
vcy * Co. being the firms most vitality
Interested The main body of specu
Iators had little to do with the adj
vance.
II was evident. however, that a
heavy short interest existed in Sep
tembcr. The fight was over the pos
session of the cash wheat. Heavy
selling of September was done during
August in the belief that the carrying
charges, then over 21a cents, would inn
prove. hut instead they have gradually
leSSencd and today entirely diSnp-
peared. Efforts to cover short sales
Wednesday were unsuccessful until
September had been bid up from TOSS
cents to 12H&12S cents. Much nerv-
BUSINESS was shown all day.
