TAaoART LOST
State Nay Annul His Charters for
Resorts.

indianapolis, Oct. s.-Two rulings,
both by the highest courts In the
state, this afternoon struck the hard
est blow to the French Lick Springs
and West Baden hotel companies,
known as the Indiana Monte Carlo,
that could be given to the corpora
lions.
The appellate court held that the
state has right to bring suit to for
felt the charters OF the hotel compa-
MES for violation of the states laws.
simultaneously the supreme court
held that the afildavits filed against
the casinos at the springs were valid.
Both decisions mean the ultimate ex-
tinction Of the corporations, which
are headed by Thomas Taggart.
These are the cases in which Vice
Presidential Candidate Kern repre-.
scented Taggart, and Kern has lost.
In effect the decisions mean that
since gambling has been carried on
there, the state charters are liable to
forfeiture and all the state has to do
Is to proceed with the suit to forfeit
the charters.

| CnlcaGO, Oct. S.-F1nley, Darrell and
company to Geraghty and company
Grand Forks:
WHEAT: Wheat scored an ad-
vance of about / and 1-2 cent on
heavy covering which was supposed to
be for eastern interests. The war
news easily overshadowed every other
factor. Above dollar for December
number of stop-loss orders were
encountered which in the absence of
pressure greatly accelerated the up
ward movement. Selling was scat
tered and at most entirely of profit
taking variety. While there was moth
ing alarming in the war rumors to-
day. the trade in general bought on
the theory that the situation was suf-
ficiently grave to warrant higher
values. The northwest reported a
splendid cash demand with premiums
practically unchanged. The export
news was conflicting, the east claimed
quite lot sold while local exporters
claimed bids badly out of line with
recent buyers offering to resell. While
we would not advise going short in
the face of war possibilities, we be-
lieve it advisable not to ignore profits
on all such bulges as we had today,
as short interest has undoubtedly
been materially reduced.
CORN: Corn displayed a firm I'M
dertone on scattered buying by the
commission houses, covering by the
local shorts and in sympathy with the
strength in wheat. The trade in gen.
eral was of limited volume. First new
corn for the season arrived from Ok
lahoma, graded No. and sold at rs
cents, a record price for new corn in
October. The crop advices are rather
conflicting. The receipts continue
light. Strong interests are undoubt-
eddy against any advance. at this mo-
ment, therefore we favor taking pro-
fits on all hard spots.
f OATS: Oats ruled strong in SYM
pathy with other grains. The trade
was small and featureless. The cash
market was IL cent higher. The SEN
timent at the close was rather bullish,
but until something developes to slim
ulate little more outside interest
or a material improvement in the cash
demand. it will be difficult, in our
opinion, to bring about any sustained
Improvement in values.
PROVISIONS: The strength in
grain and profit taking by few local
shorts resulted in a slight reaction
in values. The course of the market
during the Immediate future pivots
on the hog movement. We rather favor
purchases on good breaks, especially
January lard and pork.

STOCKS: All European markets
were further upset by the complica-
tons in the Balkans. Advices from
the continent were anything but re-
assuring. The stocks were sold by
Europeans in large volume all day
long. Steels were among the heaviest
and Held strong in the face Of the
heavy selling. The pools in the diff
ferent groups found that the load
was becoming too heavy and withdrew
its support. The situation abroad will
have to become more fully known
before investors will come into the
market. The latest reports from
abroad were of semi-demoralization
in foreign stocks and will throwing
over Of the kaihrs. The market, how
ever, regained some of its losses and
there Is no uneasiness felt in this
market up to the present time.
