CHICAGO Less Excited

Chicago, Sept. 22.--Wheat jumped up
as much as 3is cents bushei as the
result of the defeat OF reciprocity. That
was the extreme rise for May delivery.
Most OF the trading took place at
much less advance rushing down to
.1A cents. Oats made gain of 1la
cents.
So lively was the trading that 1t was
impossible to follow Individual opera
tions. Every foot OF room on the steps
OF the pit supported one or more Wild
" shouting brokers and looking down
from the galleries the crowd below
seemed most like mass of rapidly
waving arms.
May delivery Of wheat went to 1.o3x.
against 1.01ss at the close last night.
May oats sold at 49, compared with
477s at the wlnd-up yesterday. Profit
taking on the part of lucky owners pre-
vented any greater advance at least for
the time being. 1t was the general gos-
sip that an increase Of 25 to 80 cents a
barrel on -four would be inevitable.

negotiating the reciprocity pact. lost
his election In Brant Ontario. which
he had represented for many years

The second surprise In Nova Scotia
was the defeat Of Robert Laird Borden.
the leader Of the conservative party in
Canada. Mr.. Borden failed OF re-elec-
ton for one OF, the Halifax seats, as did
his colleague. Adam b. Crosby. The
conservative leader, however, was re-
jected by the voters of Halifax In
previous election, and his reverse was
less startling than that which Mr.. Field
ing sustained.

tirely unexpected by either party was
