Chicago, Jan 16.-WHEAT-T1e wheat
market has shown a remarkable amount
of weakness today. The only thing which
kept the market from breaking much
more in the early part OF the session was
fear on the part Of traders that the So
called bull clique would support the mar
ket at 761hc. Some early local selling car
ried the price to that figure, but the abb
sOrptiOn by a couple Of commission houses
soon caused little rally. Spot wheat at
Liverpool showed a decline Of I'D to Id

MADDEN DOESN'T LIKE IT.
Proposal to Abolish Regents Does
Not Meet With His Approval


John Madden of Emporia who is

In speaking Of the bill introduced by
Senator Branine to do away with the
boards of regents OF the state educa-

make one board over all. he said that
the bin was a poor one and that it
should not pass the legislature. In the

state now 81. 200 for the three boards of
regents. According to the bill intro
duced it viii cost the state s., 200 for the
one board could do. The objects of the
the greatest objection in my opinion.
The establishment of one board over all
the state educa tionaI institutions will
inlure the institutions because the
boards as they are now constituted can
do more for each institution than the
one board could do. The object of the
institutions are different At the state
normal they educate the scholars in
