Chicago. Oct. 24,--Wheat-The wheat
market opened weak under pressure
Of realizing sales. The offerings COM
ing chiefly from commission houses.
There was some elevator buying by
elevator interests on resting orders and
local professionals seemed inclined to
play for rally which took place. The
southwestern markets were weak early,
rallying with out own. A good many
long Ines have gone overheard again,
and the market is probably short one,
which may give us little further up
turn, but the general position remains
unchanged and we can see no reason
for, any permanent advance in prices.

the company never has since 1t was or
ganized in 1903, had enough earnings
to pay the expenses. The question at
issue in the case was whether or not
certain claims for supplies, etc, should
have priority over the payment of
mortgage liens. The intervening pc
titions and claims against the road
number about 1,1OO. and amount to
nearly 81 100000. After an agreement
among the Intervening petitioners last
fall, two representative cases were fill
ed. those of the p. P. c. and st. l. R. r..
and the Carbon Fuel Co. Testimony
was taken on the petitions at Chicago,
Indianapolis and Boston.
The special master finds that none
of the intervening petitioners or other
creditors is entitled to priority of pay
ment over the mortgage liens before
these other claims were contracted
1t is recommended that the claims of
the two firms mentioned in the repre-
sentative suits shall be paid from any
money that remains from the sale Of
the road after the payment of the re-
ceiver's certificates and the mortgage
liens and other preferred debts.
1t was found by the special master
that the railroad company had never
had surplus and that the lack of sur
plus was not due to a division of earn
iings from the payment of expenses to
the benefit of the mortgage bondhold-
ers.

HE HAS LONG TALK WITH REP.
cRUMPAcKER.

Washington, March 14-President
Taft is giving some attention to sug-
gestions for a tariff plank in the Indi-
ana republican state platform. The
presidents attitude in regard to the
Indiana situation is not different from
his attitude as, to other state situations.
He does not wish to be considered as
interfering in any way with matters of
more or less local concern, but it is one
OF his ambitions to be of assistance. if
he can. in composing whatever differ
ences may exist between Indiana re-
publicans.
Yesterday Former Representative
James E. Watson was a caller at the
White House. 1t was reported that he
went to persuade the president to use
his influence toward obtaining a
strong Endorsement of the Payne-Ald-
rich bill in the Indiana state platform.
A congressman who happened to be
near spread the word that Mr.. Watson
was emphatic and that he said some
thing about the probability that the
democrats would sweep the boards in
Indiana unless the endorsement of the
Payne law was made strong and une-
quivocal.
Taft Summons Crumpacker.
Mr.. Watson denies this report. He
made the following statement today:
II went to the White House to intro
duce friend to the president. had
N<h S-
was there the president himself
brought up the subject of the Indiana
platforms probable treatment of the
Payne-Aldrich tariff law. 1t was evi-
dent to me that it was a subject in
which the president was considerably
interested. I did not venture an opin-
ion one way or the other, as it is a
matter which am in favor of leaving
to Senator Beveridge."
About as soon as Mr.. Watson left the
White House telephone message came
to Capitol Hill from the White House
inquiring for Representative Crum-
packer. Mr.. Crumpacker at that time
was attending a meeting Of the COM
mittee on insular affairs. He was
found at the committee room and in
formed that the president wished him
to come to the White House at once.
He went and they had a conference,
which lasted for good while.
The subject OF the conference was
the Indiana platform declaration on
the tariff. Mr.. Cumpacker Is anxious
that plank may be prepared which all
Indiana republicans can indorse. He
submitted his views to the president
and other conferences will follow.

mark of President Taft to a western
senator who called at the white house
today. the senator representing anoth-
er state. however
President Taft spoke with express
sion of profound regret. adding that
he had done the best he could. accord
ing to his lights. and suggesting that
he would like TO have somebody tell
him how he could mend matters. And
Yet the experience OF William Dudley
Foulke and Lucius Il. Swift and other
volunteers In the Taft rescue league
is not of a kind to encourage further
voluntary advice. From expressions
they have given to their friends since
their return to Washington from the

Within Twelve Hours Time the
Blaze Fighters Were Called
Out Four Times by the
Changing Gong.
NONE OF THE BLAZES
PROVED TO BE SERIOUS
c., c. & l. TrestIe Catches
Afire Twice, a Residence
Has a Narrow Escape and
Factory Endangered.

BIeary eyed and all in, the firemen
are doing their best to keep awake on
their jobs today after having spent one
of the most strenuous nights of their
existence. From 5 o'clock yesterday
the department responded to four
alarms and the firemen attribute their
hoodoo to the fact that last night was
the night of the thirteenth of the
month. None of the fires were serious,
however.
1t all began yesterday afternoon
when the fire department was called
to the Safety Gate factory, at fifteenth
street and the railroad. to extinguish
blaze in a bunch of dry grass which
was burning briskly. No damage
was DONE but it started the hoodoo for
the fire laddies.
Fire in a Residence.
At about 80 O'Clock this morning
the clang of the big gong disturbed
the sweet dreams of the firemen and
they responded to an alarm in the east
end. where they were called to extin-
guish a fire in the residence at 223
family named Higgins. About $75
damages was done there, a quantity of
bed clothing, two mattresses and a
druggett being destroyed. A large
hole was burned in the floor and some
furniture was also damaged. 1t is
thought that the fire resulted from hot
Goals from the CRATE. The family was
out of the city and the blaze was dis
covered by railroader who CHANGED
to be passing the house at the time.
The firemen returned and had been
in bed for perhaps half an hour when
another alarm sounded and it was
back to work again. This time the G.,
C. and l.. railroad trestle which crosses
south A street, required attention. The
ties and framework was burning rapid
ly and the flames spread over a con-
siderable portion of the bridge when
the department arrived. However, no
difficulty was experienced in extin-
gushing the blaze. The damage was
not sufficient to render the tressle un-
safe and the early morning trains
passed over without trouble.
Fourth Alarm Sounds.
Morpheus was just getting in his
work again and the firemen were in
the realm of Sunderland when their
peace received another decided jar,
about 5 o'clock. by the fourth alarm
within twelve hours. Fire had bro
ken out on another part of the c., c. &
l.. trestle, just south of Main street.
but the blaze was a small one and was
easily extinguished in a few minutes.
Both of the fires on the trestle are
thought to have been caused by flying
sparks from the engine.
The firemen declare that they hope
the performance of last night will not
be repeated soon again. One member
OF the department said that he didn't
know whether this was today or day
after tomorrow, as he had been un-
dressed three times during the night.

caused by insects which eat into the
