The mystery of the sudden return of John D. Rockefeller from his Cleveland home to his estate at Pc. cantico Hills at Tarrytown has been solved. Various reasons have been ascribed for his trip east one that he desired to personally select a new home for his son, John D.

BUTTER BOARD SECRETS TOLD.
Books Show Manner Of Fixing Prices
to Consumers.

10 SOnBuu0SOs
Chicago, Nov. 24.-The records Of the
Chicago butter and egg board for the
last two years were used as evidence
against that body in the government
suit to dissolve the board. 1t was as
startling bit Of evidence as any trust
busting" government counsel ever laid
his hands upon, according to Assistant
United States District Attorney Albert
G. WEIGH.
Here are two OF the principal facts
shown by the records Of the board, ac-
cused Of operating IN restraint OF
trade:
Tha. less than per cent Of the seven
grades of butter sold in the Chicago
commission market in the last two
years has been sold on the Chicago
butter and egg board. which. neverthe-
less has controlled the Chicago quota
tons on butter and eggs
That in the last two years there have
been only twenty-four days when any
extra creamery butter, the best grade.
has been sold on the board. Neverthe-
less the butter quotations have been
fixed daily during the last two years
by the butter committee Of the board.
a. w. Hale, assistant secretary OF the
board. testifying at yesterdays hear.
ing before Master in Chancery Charles
B. Morrison. said that after the hrst
and second butter calls and the posting
Of the various grades for sale, the price
committee retired and the quotations
were made in accordance with the
prices offered on tine board. He did not
explain by what rules the commietee
was guided in fixing prices on grades OF
butter that were not offered.
All the governments witnesses, butt
ter and egg dealers Of Chicago, agreed
1t was impossible to buy butter at the,
prices quoted on the board, the official
Chicago price, and that the actual
wholesale price was from to 4 cents
higher. They blamed the contract sys-
/ tem-that Of buying up all the product
Of creameries in the dairy district i'd
tacent to Chicago-for this discrepancy
in figures.
One witness, Frank M. Reggie OF
Lepman & Heggie, butter and egg deal
ers. said his firm never purchased btit-
ter by contract. Heggis said his hrfn
handled about 100000 worth Of butter
yearly. all Of which he said was bought
on the street in Chicago. He named
. dozen big commissions dealers who
! ! bought their butter under contract from
crcameries.

Grinnel. Nov. 24-An innovation
for the annual Thanksgiving day
religious exercises has been made in
Grinnell by taking the services to
Herrick chapel instead of to one of the
churches. as has always been the Gus
tom, because of the fact that the COL
lege recess at this time covers only
the day itself and the large body of
students who can not reach their
homes will have better opportunity
of attending the morning service be-
ginning at 1920. Pastor p. F. Mars
ton of the Congrega tional church will
preach the Thanksgiving sermon.
On Tuesday of next week the mid
winter meeting of the trustees Of Iowa
College will be held in this city. Moth

Chicago, Nov. 24.-Rain interfering
with harvest in the Argentine had
tendency today to send the wheat mar
ket higher. So did fresh reports Of
black rust. Cable dispatches from a
Chicago expert stated that in the cen
trail part of Cordoba for distance or
seventy five miles every lot OF wheat
examined showed more or less of the
blight. In addition to other oullish
news there were estimates that world ;
shipments would be small. Inc open
ing was the same as last night, TO a

gain Of a shade TO 4. and rose TO
1.o0N.
Figures showing reduced European
requirements owing to better crops lea
to a reaction but prices soon rallied.
The close was easy with May at LOO 12
and 1908.
Corn.
Corn swung upward with wheat. AT
first, however, the market was inclined
to be easy, on account of better Weath-
er. May opened sixteenth off to
like amount up at S4b Q6o, and then
advanced to 5h.
Later the market sagged. The close
was weak q net lower at 6412 Tor
May.
Oats.
oats showed frmness owing to buy
ing on the part of cash houses. Inc
market felt also the support or Dull
ish sentiment in neighboring pits. May
started unchanged at 1915 and ascend
ed to so.
Provisions.
The fact that the hog run west was
less than last week had influence with
traders in provisions. In consequence
initial sales ran from the same as last
night to 21a up cents UP, with May
at s1672k to s16.75 for pork, $780, L
for lard, and $3.50 for ribs.
