WHEAT TRADE ERRA1Ic
Buyers and Sellers Whipsaw and Prices
Go Up and Down Over Range Of :
.cents-Tradins Of Huge Magnitude.

Chicago, April 15.-Buyers and SELL
ers alike were whip-sawed today in
wheat. The market swiftly whirled up,
then down, and up again, over a range
of nearly 4 cents.
Trading reached Il magnitude seldom
equalled except in war times.
The news which had the greatest
influence on the bull side of the wheat
market was from a crop expert who
had previously been disposed to mini
mize the effect Of supposed winter
killing in the soft winter states. To-
day he telegraphed from Decatur Ill.,.
tina tbetween there and Matoon, ILL.,,
virtually all wheat was dead that the
fields were perfectly bare and would
have to be planted to oats and corn.
On the other hand the bears pointed
out that at Liverpool and elsewhere
prices had not risen in anything like
the degree recorded in Chicago and that
according to conservative standards 1t
was too early to determine damage to
winter wheat.
Under, the sway of such radically op-
posite ideas May wheat spun in aston
ishing fashion over limit OF cash
prices bounded by $I07h below and
$1.11H on top

1--WE place absolute confidence in the
Titanic. We believe the boat u abso-
lutely unsuitable and altho she may
have sunk at the bow we know that
she would remain afloat. We do not
attach any significance to the fact that
there are no Marconi messages being
received from the boat. We think 1t
denotes nothing but the fact that the
boat 10 in communication with other
steamers, for she may have gotten off
all the messages she wanted to send.
We are not at all worried about the
loss Of the ship. but we are extremely
sorry for the annoyance and incon-
venience to our passengers and the
travelling public. You can make our
views as forceful as you like regarding
the capabilities Of the ship to with
stand any exterior damage. We figure
the Virginia Of the Allan line Will be
alongside the Titantic by 10 o'clock
and we figure the Olympic of the
White Star line will be with the Titanic
at 3 D. m. and the Baltic an hour
later"
Mr.. Franklin was most empathic In
his assurance regarding the safety OF
the passengers and the steamer.

MEXICO WARNED eY U. 8.
Rebels and Fsderais Told They Must
Respect Life and Property.

Washington, April 15.-Warning was
issued today by the United States to
the Mexican government. as we'll as
to Gen. Pascual Orozco. chief Of the
revolutionary forces, that ut expects
and must demand that American life
and property within the republic OF
Mexico be Justly and adequately pro-
tected. and that this government must
hold Mexico and Mexican people re-
sponsible for all wanton or Illegal acts
sacrificing or endangering American
life. or damaging American property
or interests
The attitude Of the United States as
expressed to both the federal and rebel
authorities is that any maltreatment OF
American citizens will be deeply re-
sented by the American government
and people, and must be fully answered
for by the Mexican people"
Acting Secretary Huntington Wilson
Of the state department. who today is
sued special instructions to Ambas-
sador Henry Lane Wilson at Mexico
City, and Marion Letcher, American
consul at Chihuahua, authorized the
statement that Intervention was not
contemplated by the United States.
Ambassador Wilson was ordered to
communicate at once the views Of the
United States to the Mexican minister
for foreign affairs, and copy Of his
instructions was likewise sent to Mar
ion Letcher. American consul at Chi
huahua, with special representations
addressed to Gen. Orozco.
Orozco recently refused to recognize
Letcher as the American consular rep
resentative. because the United States
withheld recognition Of the rebel
cause. The representations to Orozco
accuse him Of the practical murder
of Thomas Fountain, an American
gunner. enlisted with the federals. but
summarily executed last week, when
taken prisoner by the insurrectos.
Tho declining to justify participation
Of Americans on either side, the United
States expressly stipulates that Amer
lean combatants, when taken prisoners.
must be given humane treatment in
accordance with the international rules
Of war.
The correspondence, made public last
night, is admittedly the strongest de-
mand the United States is known to
have made upon Mexico for respect
full treatment Of Americans, as well as
other foreigners, and declares that a
continuation of Illegal acts is tending
ito difficulties and obligations which 1t
is to the interest Of all true Mexican
patriots, as It is the desire Of the
United States, to avoid"
