CHICAGO DAILY
MARKET NOTES

Sentiment among the grain trade has
become more buliish owing to con-
tinued taking Of all grains as fast as
offered by seaboard exporters. At the
top yesterday wheat was up 11%c, corn
3hc, oats. SIC from the low point of
last Tuesday. Those who have been
bearish Of late say they expect the
the war lasts and foreigners continue
to absorb our surplus.
Corn bulls expect old corn to be
scarce the next two months and ex-
pect September to sell high. Dat bulls
say SO long as foreigners pay higher
prices for cash lots ana country offer
ings remain small they expect to have
the best OF 1t, Provision people are
becoming more bullish on lard, but can
not get much that way on side meats.
Bjarne Sommerschield Of Christiana,
Norway is in the United States estab-
fishing trade relations with merchants
in flour and grains. He spent last
week in Chicago. Consumers OF rye
flour in Norway will be obliged to use
wheat flour instead owing to scarce
ness. 1t usually receives it's supplies
from Germany and Russia. which are
cut off at present. This has necessi-
tated purchases in this country.
France, Holland, Denmark and Swed-
en- we're induiring for, corn at the sea
board. The poor conditions OF the ar
rivals from Argentina is given by some
as the reason for the call at such high
prices.

900 hogs and 10000 sheep, against s4, ;

BATTLE IN
MEXICO

A State of Anarchy

New York, Sept. 26.-Before sailing
for Glasgow on his way to Petrograd
aboard the Olympic today Alexandra
de Staleghlky, Russian minister to
Mexico, spoke freely on conditions
in that country as he said he had
found them.
Mexico is without government
and practically in a state of anarchy"
he said with the exception of the
state Of Yucatan, where some SEM
blance of order is still maintained, it
is unsafe for person to travel in
Mexico. The bands of brigands that
rob and burn and pillage as they
please, without interference by the
authorities, are cause of all the trou-
BILE. There is no interference by the
national authorities, simply because
there is no national government worth
mentioning.
''The United States should not with
draw its troops from Vera Cruz. From
what I was able to observe there is
no prospect that a stable government
may be established in Mexico. Car
rama is an able political chief, but
he cannot compare with Villa as a
leader of men. l am frank to state
L.,
not half as bad as they were during
the reign of Maderc.'
