Chicago. Aug. 30---Wheat was weak
all day owing tn general selling based
on bearish news of various descrfp-
tons, chief among which were de-
clines at all leading European mar
kets, including Liverpool. where prices
were off 1lsd to l7sd. The surprising
ly small decrease of I'll 600 bushels in
the visible supply Of wheat in the
United States helped To steady the
market in the final half.
The liberal movement Of wheat in
this country was again an important
factor in the situation. Total pri-
mary receipts were considerably in ex-
cess of the arrivals for the CORES

result of these predictions cash wheat
at all Northwestern centers was ex-
tremeIy heavy. Continued reluctance
of foreigners to purchase American
wheat also has depressing
effect. Great selling pressure was in

AMATEUR NIGHT
 AT ELKS THEATEP

Last night was amateur night al the Elks Theater and the efforts of the wouldbe actors kept the audi ence in continual roar. Floyd kOon, first on, did some good clog dancing. LaCarty and Royster, black fact artists, made good and were close contestants for the second prize. The decided hit of the evening was little Georgia Yost, who gave recitation that would have done credit to one of twice her years. Her expression was excellent. She was an easy winner of the first prize. The second prize was awarded to Haily and Price, two young girls who gave selection from The Runaways" in a most pleasing manner. The other numbers on the bill were Bertha Watkins, who gave a selection on the violin cello, and Katie Hailey, who rendered sweet solo. Both of the above numbers came in for their share of the ap- plause. In addition to the amateurs , the ergular bill, which is one the best that has appeared at the Elks The ater, was given.

CENTRAL GIRLS"
 WANT OLD WHISTLE
Young Ladies at Local Phone .Ex- changes Say Rocking Bird Whis. tie Will Save Them Much Trouble and Annoyance.

In addition to the many others who have expressed desire to hear the old mocking bird whistle sat the wat erWorks again, the Central" girls at both phone offices are exceedingly anxious to learn of the replacing of the old whistle. The young ladies employed at the telephone exchanges state that they are worried to death morning, noon and night by persons who continue to call them and inquire ''Where's the fire?' The young la dies say that hundreds of phone users declare that they cannot distinguish the mill whistles from the chime whistle now in use at the waterworks. They think there is a fire every time they hear mill Or shop whistle blow and almost instantly after the whis- tie is heard the switchboards at the exchanges are a blaze of lights, and the operators are kept busy for some time explaining that there was no fire alarm sounded.
 The refusal of the city council to consider a petition of the ".Anti- Mocking-Bird-W -Whistleites' Monday night. in which they requested that the present whistle be continued in use, was received by those who want the old whistle with much relief. Former Alderman J. H. Dellmon, one of the advocates of the old whistle, has donated his services to the Pine Bluff Corporation and says he will re- place the old whistle without charge to the company. General Manager 5. w. Fowles. of the Pine Bluff Corpora ton, stated last night that the com pany's engineer was arranging for the removal of the chime whistle and the n,ocking bird whistle would doubtless be heard within the next few Jays.

SOCIALIST URGES

James O'NeaI. of Terre Haute, Fix. pounds the Principles of Socialism on a, Street Corner in This City,

James ONeal. of Terre Haute, Ind. who is touring the South as d repre- sentative of the National Socialist Organization in the interest of Social ism, spoke to large crowd at Bar raque and Main streets last night The speaking was attended by a large crowd of interested persons and Mr. ONeal made most favorable impress sion. His speech tended to show that he had given the subject much study and Ee was Frequently applauded.
 In part, Mr O'Neal said
 When W look out on the great civilization rrder which we live, wIla US mashl1ice mt resources. the bounl less ferti,;t of the soil, the great powers 0. wealth production. stcanl aTi machinG s, have given us. and then contrast ,lAt :e opportunities wta the WreI:hr. He made Of them. ue get some conception of the gia..t Wrongs of today. It does not ml,tAr ti.at impro n. machinery has mull.. piled our we.tith productive pow,4=S tlGle after lime if it only dispIacos neh and gives colossal fortunes tG q few. 1t does nui matter if we haze v-eaved a n":wC"k Of railways that cover the continent. if the bread lne., increase and many go in rags. It does not matter if the wonders of modern science place us on the threshold of revealing the mystery of life itself if the knowledge is to be monopoly ,,f the few. It does not matter in tn, least if man has mastered the re- sources of nature and matle them serve his needs, if the machinery Of employment can be withheld from the toilers and so curse them with pow erty.
 There is wealth for all today anl there is plenty of opporyanity to sup ply it to all once we awaken to th :, fact +ha, to allow one class to possess t,te sr.tories, railroads and machines is prime against ,in.maslity If a class shall continue to own them this class will continue to absorb the benefits. To make all our machinery of wealth production serve the nee,ls and wants of all this machinery muat be public property, operated and man. aged for the common good.
 Twenty centuries of human Dro"- ress, or, at least. the results ii th;s progress, are today the property of a few. By securing all ;ndusrY" fo, the people as public property the benefits will flow to all evan as ;he source is owned by all Instead of great streams of wealth flowing into the hands of idle capitalists they will flow to the actual producers, who alone are entitled to them
 We call on the workers, wilo C vic .tims of this system, to go with us Socialists to the ballot box to secure the law-making powers and use them for our program. With industry ours we can transform every factory into palace of art and every workshop into a studio, where happy human be- ings will bless the race with the products of their genius and the hell of poverty will be banished from the earth forever"
