Ida A. Nusewitz yesterday, as she
opened it at her desk in the office Of

believe the life Of William H. Calihan,
the proprietor, was sought. Following
still further this theory. the detec-

when he took the package containing
the bomb to an office OF an express
company for delivery. This young
mar wore a SLOUGH h and a black

Washington, Dec. 13.-The fact the
house committee on posto1ices has de-
cided to favor the expenditure of $780,
GOO to be used by the postmaster gen.
era. in the purchase of steel railway
mail ears is attracting much attention
in congress. These cars are to be pur-
chased and equipped by the govern
ment and this action is to be taken as
an experiment on the part of congress
and the %postoffice department to see
how the plan works.
The proposal is strongly endorsed by
Postmaster General Burleson. The fig
ures on the rental Of cars under the
present system and on the cost Of cars
under q system Of purchase have
been gone owe carefully by experts,
including Chairman Moon, OF the post
OFFICES committee. The calculations
show thai it will be economy for the
government to buy the cars.
Step Towards Federal Ownership.
Representative Cox. of Indiana, VINO
is on the ppstoffices committee, and
who has given attention to the ques-
ton Of buying mail cars, said 1t was
another step in b direction of gov.
eminent ownership. He added that he
was for it.
While the plan has not yet passed
congress. Indications r that 1t will
pass. Not only ut. Cox but some OF
the other members Of the committee
look on the proposed purchase Of cars

Phone 1851
Chicago, Dec. 13.-Wheat-The range
in wheat was narrow. December clos
Ing u higher. while the deferred
months were y lower. The action for
the week shows a moderate decline for
July, May gaining Y and December
IN cents. The rad showed a dispo-
sition to even up in anticipation Of the
government report which appears on
Monday. Worlds shipments are ex-
pected to be lighter thar last week and
the visible supply will probably show
a decrease. The closing OF navigation
finds US with liberal supplies in all
POSITIONS points not in the visible
supply having It least their average
winter stock. The market action the
coming week Will depend largely on
the character OF the government re-
ports issued Monday n Wednesday.
Corn-The corn market declined Il
to g cents for the day. while the week
shows losses OF IN to 2H to 2% cents,
the latter on current delivery. A week OF
perfect weather has resulted in a free
movement Of ORR from the country.
The cash markets have shown marked
weakness in the lower grades on ac-
count OF high moisture tests in corn
from Indiana and Illinois. That coming
from Iowa, South Dakota and from
Minnesota has been OF better quality
and therefore IN much better demand.
There Is a good profit to warehouse
men IN making contract corn, and de-
~liverfes on December contract, which
started this week, are likely to con-
tinue.
Oats-Oats were again easy, losing
Il to u cents on light demand and
offerings from elevator interests. For
the week the decline amounted to 1 to
IA cents. The out movement this week
has been liberal and stocks are ex-
