for wheat, with few traders venturing
to sell. The price for May delivery
was from $1.1l3k to SLIP and for de-
livery for the present month from

buy shouted bids of 2 cents a bushel
above the prices prevailing at the

was extremely limited.

German Protestant Papers Object to
Name of Future Queen.


Berlin, Sept. 10.-The Protestant
provincial newspapers suggest to the
government that the betrothed wife
of Crown Prince Frederick William,
the Duchess Cecilia of Mecklenberg-
Schwerin, ought not to be called c.
ella after her marriage. They regard
this as an Objectionable name for a
Prussian queen and a German empress
because associated with a Catholic
saint and many church societies are
named after her. The papers point
out that such association would injure
the Protestant religion in Germany,
as the uniformed might think their
future empress was Catholic. They
suggest a number of other names, AL
gusta, for instance.
