The rueful list of divorces obtained
by society women shows that most of
the persons began the matrimonial ex-
perience in a spectacular and theatric
fashion. Divorces of late years seem to
follow pretentious weddings. 1t is just
possible that women who have grown
accustomed to seeing their every move
ment chronicled in the papers, who live
a garish life as bellies and have their
faces and gowns pictured and their pri
vate affairs constantly bulletined, may
not easily adapt themselves and their
vanity to the enforced privacy and mo-
notony of domestic life. especially when
their husbands may object to a vulgar
parade of their family matters. With
such women domesticlty is very apt to
become a horrible bore. very much as
it was to 1.-The Second Mrs. Tanque-
ray" and. it is conceivable that even
divorce may be relief TO minds stag
mating in a dull atmosphere of duty
1t may also be possible that the fem
inine restlessness of our times, famed
by the garrulous ambitions of women
leaders. units vain women not only for
maternal duties, but for domestic rou-
tine. The fact that divorce is now OF
such common occurrence in circles that
ought to be the exemplars of the high
est virtues offers one of the profoundest
problems to the moralist. 1t would be
u sorry outcome of woman's higher
standard of independence if she is des-
tined to realize il through divorce

Have done work for us in the way
of moving and repairing houses,

and the western troops have above all
else demonstrated TO the world their
superb fighting capacity. The record
has been one uninterrupted account of
indcmitable advance against superior
numbers. unparalleled heat and
treacherous country. Aside from all
ultimate questions of colonial expan-
sion. which the people of the United
States will settle to their own satisfac-
zion, it is impossible not to feel proud
of the stuff which these western boys
are made of. The remark of an English
officer that the United States seems to
keep veterans in reserve in its civil

is considered that the United States is
doing with almost raw material what
England has been doing for hundred
years with trained professional army.

BRADSTREETS REPORT.

New York, Sept. 2S.-Bradstreets to-
morrow will say: The notable feature
OF the business situation is the strength
of agricultural products, notably the
cereals, cotton and pork products. Fall
trade continues good though it is cor
coded at several markets that the big
gest part of the fall business has been
done. and that recorders from now on
will cut the largest figure. Weather
conditions, while favorable to cotton
crop harvesting, are claimed to be hurt
full to further growth, because of dry
weather; outside speculative interest in
that staple short covering. partly, it is
claimed, on foreign account and the eX-
ceptiCnal strength of the manufactur-
ing industry, the products of which are
in active demand and tending upward,
are all reflected in the rapid advances
for both futures and spots. Wheat has
renamed steadily strong, growing firm
er toward the close on enlarged for eign
buying and uncertainty as to the out
come of South African affairs.
Wool has continued strong and in ac-
tive demand both at home and abroad.
There is quieter tone at most markets
for iron anG steel, for large buyers have
been most of them out of the market.
There is no diminution in strength.
however, and a number of advances
notably On southern iron and steel bill
lets, are to be reported Complaints
of backward deliveries are as numerous
as ever.

Boston, Sept. 2S.-Wheat opened strong
up to call price and sc over last niTht.
The local temper was bullish on pros
poets of fall rains diminishing primary
receipts. on the South African news and
on the advance of 14dlAd. at Liverpool.
The second advance in Liverpool of I'd.
furnished another surprise for the trade
and the closing English cable showed
still another advance of A0I2d, the in
creased seriousness of the South African
situation being reported as the cause of
all of the Liverpool advance foreign
houses being poorly supplied with orders
and cutting very little figure. Price cur

help further seeding, but this does not

the same cause Northwest receipts to-
day were 1899 cars, against 1927 same day
last week and 1883 same day last year.
Wheat dipped at one time on a sale of
about 250, 900 bushels by Montgomery, but
was soon back over calls again. The

was good deal of selling against calls
Inere We're big clearances, but no report
of export business. St Louis reported

trade covered largely in anticipation Of

inch of snow already on the ground and

tainty that prevails as to the probable
outcome of tomorrow's cabinet meeting
but Americans closed steady Sugar

Brooklyn Rapid Transit appeared to have
opened down for the purpose of shaking
out traders who went home long. There
was no commission business of import
ance, and after the first selling, there
was little stock in sight and bullish trad
ers bid prices up.

Nashville says the roads traffic has not

TIE MARKET ELSEWHERE.

New ork, Sept. 2S.-The market for

aHalr by contrast with the violent Nnco
tuatlons of the earlier period of tba
money stringency. The rate for call
money was from II to IA per cent dir

import point. The sentiment on the
stock exchange was that further RELIEF
10 the money market from this source
was now available and that a regular
movement of gold was now fairly in
auguratad. ~
NO pressure OF liquidation was mani
tested and present holders of stock evi-
IDENTITY felt themselves strong enough to
await more favorable turn of affairs
Inc buying demand was of the Hghtest
me confidence in further gold imports
was emphasized by the failure of the
bank of England to advance its official
discount rate, Notwithstanding the fact
that the principal demand for money in
London Is now thrown upon the central
institution by reason of the higher pre-
gold moving to New York that II. is
sure of protection by the bank at any
day may be accepted as a certainty.
The interior money markets in this
country gave no evidence of a relaxa-
ton Of the pressure upon New York for
funds.
Some relief is anticipated next week
from dividend and interest disburse-
ments and from the money to be left in
the city by visitors to the Dewey cele-
bration. Except for a recovery of 3h in
tennessee Coal, gains of ia and 2 on
the st. Louis Southwestern stocks and
wide movements in a few usually in
active stocks, today's market was with
out notable incident. The total deal

Nature of the Action.
Various resolutions were offered on

effect that committee of three be
appointed bv the chair to take the
whole question in all it's phases as it
affects the patrons of the exchange,

Col. Ryder left for Chicago last night
wher today he lays the situation here
before the executive officers of the
Central Union company. He will go
from Chicago to Rochelle where there
is some important bushes of the COM
pany to attend to, and will be back in
Rock Island Tomorrow night to camp
on the ground, as he says, until all
matters here are adjusted.
State Foreman Morse of the COM
pany's line forces is now in the city
personally directing the field opera
tions. In the central Office some
changes were made yesterday by Supt.
RYDER. Miss Beatrice Ostrum was
transferred to Manager Huntoon's
office as assistant, and Miss Elizabeth
Allan was made chief operator.
The Best Solution.
The situation, as it presents itself
to The ARGUS. is one that pertains to
the future more than to the past, and
while admitted shortcomings are what
have brought about the agitation, the
prospects and a realization of those
prospects constitute what most con-
Germs the public. Readers of THE AR
GUS will recall the contention it made
some months ago that any failure in
the character of the telephone service
ought not to be chargeable to the OPP
orators, but to the fact that the force
was not sufficiently large, and those
employed were compelled to work too
long hours. THE ARGUS is still of
the belief that more operators and
shorter hours, and, incidentally better
salaries. will contribute n an i'm
measurable degree to the elevation of
the standard of the service and the
standard of the company.
