CHICAGO, Nov. 3.-Any man or set Of
men who buy so much grain that the
price is held out of line or out of reach
Of buyers may be considered as acting In
restraint of trade. That Is the basis upon
which, in the opinion of President j. c. Il.
Merrill of the Chicago Board Of Trade,
Washington agents are working in the
investigation of an alleged corner In
wheat centered at Chicago and extend
ing from Duluth and Minneapolis to the
seaboard.
Although, declaring that no investiga-
ton of the Chicago Board of Trade itself
is under way, to the best of his knowl-
edge, President Merrill said tonight sig
nificantly:
II do know that the federal agents who
were in La Sale street Tuesday went to
the northwest markets yesterday. This
makes It look as IL the Department Of
Justice always has not considered there
was some understanding between big
wheat owners here and at other centers,
So far as the Board of Trade, as an or
ganlzation is concerned. all is serene"
Rumors were current this evening that
a former stenographer of the weighmas-
ter's office of the board had given evil
dence to the government. According to
reports in circulation, the source OF which
is not disclosed. 60 per cent of the coun-

Novel Defense for
Stealing Harness

Attorney Ralph West won the prize for
ingenuity in defending men charged with
high crimes before Judge Sears Thursday
when he hit upon proposed plan to clear
Paul Reynolds and Jack Kinsey of the
charge Of grand larceny for stealing a
SG5 set Of harness. West moved for a
separate trial for each man and his mo-
ton was sustained over objections OF
Deputy County Attorney Magney. In de-
Tending each West will contend that they
did not steal the harness, but II they did
each stole only half Of IL. Since the value
OF the harness Is but $G5 one-half would
be $3.50. and the theft OF property worth
less than SIS is not grand larceny. but
petty larceny, the extreme penalty being
but thirty days IN jail.

"Fixinq" the Ball Grounds.

Hugh S. Fullerton, the baseball ex-

Of the queer ethics of the national
game. He writes:
"'Fixfng' the grounds so as to give
the home team the advantage and
handicap the visiting players is the
commonest form Of trickery, yet In
professional ball it is not considered
wrong, any more than commander
of a defensive army would consider
it wrong to prepare breastworks to
meet an enemy. The extent to which
the fixing of grounds is carried Is
amazing. There probably is not a
major or minor league grounds in the
country on which the home players
have not the advantage, and visiting
teams are forced to be on the alert
from the moment they enter a field
to discover, if possible, what they are
up against"

How a Woman's Efforts Cleaned Up
Evansville, Ind.
When Mrs. Albion Fellows Bacon be-
gan to explore the poorer districts of
her town-Evansville, Ind.-she knew
that there were poor people and that
they did not enjoy luxuries. but she
supposed that, after all. they got on
fairly well in their way. When she
entered a tenement and was greeted
by pail Of suds flung by top floor
tenant over the railing into the hall be-
low she thought it very impolite of
the tenant.
Investigation revealed the fact that
Evansville, as well as the great cities,
had it's slum problems Landlords were
taking rent for quarters which meant
disease and death.
Just how one woman accomplished
the feat it would be difficult to explain.
but the fact remains on record that
Mrs Bacon aroused not only Evans
vile. but Indiana. Women's clubs
were enlisted in behalf of the housing
work; ministers, teachers, politicians.
men and women Of influence every
where, were shown the need Of cleaner
tenements. A great campaign all over
the state was started. Landlords In
many places fought hard. but the bill
for better housing went through.
A study Of the housekeeping of Ev-
ansville would be worth white as a
primer for every town in the country
big enough to have slums.
