Against Outside Interference.
(By the Associated Press.)


Berlin, Sept 23-The Vossische Zeitung
today prints the following special dis
patch from Bucharest:
1.-The official Independence Roumane,
after asserting that the new law contains
no provision not already in the existing
trade law calls on the Roumanian press
to make an energetic fight against out
side interference in Roumanian trade
law controversy
Referring to the above dispatch the
Vossische Zeitung remarks:
The matter cannot be disposed of so
simply. Every other State can justly
object to a foreign State mixing in it's
affairs; but Roumania cannot. since it's
independence YVES made, by the Berlin
treaty, dependent on series of condi-
tions, like no discrimination between re-
ligions in determining the political So
cial and trade rights of citizens. Can
the RouTanian officials seriously assert,
in view of this provision that no foreign
State has the right to interfere IN Rou-
manian international affa irs?"

CONGESTION IN WHEAT.
In Spite of the Injunction Against Corners
Corner Seems On.
lBv the Associated Press.D


Chicago, Sept 23.-September wheat
today gave strong evidence of congest-
ed condition, advancing from 1914. the
bottom price at the opening, to SO cents,
a gain of nearly 10 cents over yesterday s
bottom price.
Today's sharpness of advance, like yes
terday's, was due to covering OF SNORT
contracts, although today's operations III
that line were said to have been ON
smaller scale Yesterday the buying
was chiefly by an influential house, to-
day the demand came chiefly from out
side shorts representing numerous, but
generally small lines.

Trade has been enjoined by the courts,
but it is stated that the available sup
ply of contract wheat is nearly all in the
hands of a prominent elevator company.
Representatives of this company did
not sell openly today, but were credited
with letting out some September through
other houses. This relief became etfec-
tive at the top price and before noon the
price had reacted to S11s. The short in
terest is believed to represent between
two and three millions of Bushels.

QDELL IS IN A HOlI
Asks Sheldon TO Withdraw
but Sheldon Refuses.
Plat Backs Sheldon. 0dell Starts for Saratos a
10 Attempt to Make Some Satisfactory
Arrangement.
Arrangement.
(By the Associated Press.)

Saratoga, N. Y, Sept. 23.-The diff
Guilty in the Republican convention over
the candidacy of George r. Sheldon, for
the Lieutenant Governorship assumed
such proportions this afternoon that
Governor Odell was summoned from AL
bany for consultation. Word comes that
he left the State capital for this place
on a special train at $3.50 o'clock tonight
1t has developed that Governor Odell
today requested Mr.. Sheldon to withdraw
from the race for the nomination for the
second place on the ticket. The Cover
nor gave as a reason that he was or the
opinion that Mr.. Sheldon's candidacy
would jeopardiZe the success of the
whole ticket. The Governor added that
he had selected Mr. Sheldon for the
place and was his close personal friend,
but had reached the conclusion that 1t
was best Mr. Sheldon should retire.
Mr. Sheldon consulted with Senator
Platt, and gaining the Senator's sup
port, informed the Governor he could not
comply with the request.
Governor Odell sent to Senator Plat
Mr.. Sheldon to retire. Mr.. Platt an
nounced that he would not make the re-
quest that Mr.. Sheldon was in to stay.
When the news of the trouble between
the leaders became public in its entire
ty the previous apathetic attitude OF the
rank and file of the delegates to the
State Convention changed to one of the
liveliest interest. BY six o'clock in the
evening Governor Odell was being urged
by his personal friends to come to Sara
toga and settle the controversy, but to
this request he at first answered that
he had signified what his wishes in the
matter were and that the convention
could work out the situation itself.
His esteem and regard for Mr.. Sheldon
was as great as ever, but because of GER
tain revelations he had become convinced
that Mr.. Sheldon could not help and
would only hurt the ticket
Governor Odeils friends then began to
work actively to get Mr. Sheldon to re-
tire and as a result of the agitation tele-
grams began pouring in from all sec
tions of the State asking delegates not
to vote for Sheldon on the ground of his
business affiliations.
from Lieutenant Governor Woodruff as
to his attitude on the Sheldon matter,
sent a telegram saying that he (Gover-
nor OdelD would not run on the ticket
if Mr. Sheldon's name was on It, Gov
ernor Odells father and brother then
went to the telephone and told the GOV
ernor that he must come to SARATOGA
and straighten out the matter.
Governor Odell arrived here at 9:Zo
O clock and at once began lengthy con-
ference with Senator Platt.
The convention today transacted only
routine business and adjourned until TO-
morrow. After lengthy session OF the
Committee on Resolutions, the platform
to be adopted by the convention tomor-
row was agreed on. 1t was the same as
given in these dispatches and comes out
very strongly for President Roosevelt
and the Cuban policy.
