lord OF the admiralty. as we'll as Foreign
Secretary Lansdowne being present. IL
is stated that the draft OF the pro-
posed convention relative to the scope.
composition and venue of the internation-
al commission was drawn up.
AS this must be submitted TO st. Peters
burg for acceptance or revision, IL will
necessarily entail delay.
SCARE SUGGESTIONS.
The lack of information vouchsafed Of
ficially to the British press regarding the
causes OF these delays leads TO all kinds
of scare suggestions of bad faith on the
part OF Russia and tends to spread ru-
mors for which IL is difficult TO find ade-
quate reason. .f
The government received notification
from the British consul at vigo that the
Russian squadron had sailed today and
some irritation was felt at the fact that
the Russian government had failed TO
previously notify the government regard
ing the detachment of officers.
Ambassador Benkendorff is hourly ex
pecting official advices and while the for
eign office obviously Is annoyed at not
knowing officially that Russia had car
ried out her part Of the bargain. no seri-
Gus consequences are anticipated. Ii was
officially stated TO The Associated Press
that with the exception OF the foregoing
omission 20 notify the government no
hitch has occurred.

SOON TERRELL BE
 CRY OF $1 WHEAT
CEREALS EXCITED AND MANlPU- LATED WITH THE PROSPECT OF BEING USED AS FUTURE PoLlT- lCAG CAPITAL.

Chicago, January 20,-Wheat broke all records today as did corn and oats. Val- ues continued to soar all day, and traders who were short on cereals were long on troubles. Not only did wheat eclipse the record established for May delivery yos- terday, and achieve q new high mark of 919sc, but corn and oats attracted their share of attention by breaking records, May corn selling at 509sc early in the day and oats touching 429sc. Just before the close of trading wheat scored a clear Rd- vance of over two cents bushel over the final figure of yesterday. The price for May wheat touched 92c, as compared with s9d9oc, the closing quotations of yesterday In the last moment or two of trading today. the price went to 921saD 92i4c The last sale as the gong sound ed was at 92hc.
 The high prices were all due to the same general conditions. Current rec ports are that Armours holdings in wheat have congested the market and rendered 1t exceedingly susceptible to any strengthening influences. PHttens line of May oats and the holdings of an eastern group of spectators in corn are said to have accomplished the results in these grains. In consequence all the markets were nervous and responded readily to any upward pressure. High prices, therefore. do not necessarily in- dicate an exceptional volume of trade
