GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.
CHICAGO.

CHICAGO. May 5.-F'rost predictions
and bulsh cables made firm market
today for wheat Strength developed
chiefly in the May option, which was
especially affected by the meagerness of
the present stock in elevators here.
Other months We're not greatly changed.
Prices started the same as last night to
q higher. but all of the gain was not
held.
Continued reports of damage and de-
lay by storms in Argentina gave the
corn market a lift. Free selling on the
bulge. however. tended to ease prices
somewhat. The opening was UNCHANGED
to "a higher, and there was a slight
further ascent before a reaction began.
The wheat market afterward became
weak, lightness of outside trade being
a encouragement to buyers and there
being a current opinion that the insect
damage had been eliminated as a source
of danger to the crop. The close was
heavy at the same as last night to
1.a Is lower
Additional strength in the corn market
came from advices that Argentine ship
pears were endeavoring to buy back corn
sold for shipment up to May -. The
close was firm at an advance of ia to =
net.
oats rose with corn, Offerings We're
only moderate.
Higher prices for hogs carried provt-
sions up grade. First sales varied from
u. off to a like advance. but later there
was a material rise all around.

taken to mean that the operators will
insist upon actual placing of soldiers on
their property. though no immediate rep
operator would discuss that
particular phase of the question

(Unlted Press Day SorVice)
Washington, May 2.-The president
practically decided today on the per-
sonnel of the reserve board under
the new currency law. 1t is expected
he will send the nominations to the
Senate next week. 1t is generally
believed the announcement would have
been. made already but for the ad-
ministration's efforts to secure the
services of former high government
officials and a famous lawyer for
chairman. This individuals name is
withheld because it is stated thus far
he has refused to emerge from his
private life again. The president IS
maintaining the profoundest secrecy
regarding the boards membership.
Secretaries McAdoo and Houston are
his only confidants. Rumor persists,
however, that Paul Warburg of the
Kuhn-Loeb Company is among the
selections.

DOUBLE MURDERER
WILL BE EXECUTED

Pasqual Vasquez, who joined the
Mexican army at Mexicali, presum-
ably for the purpose of hiding his
true identity, and who was recog-
nized at Vasquez by Juan de la Fu-
ente, who openly accused him of
numbering Delbert Wardlow of Or
ange county, was not publicly shot
in Mexicali as reported.
Vasquez enlisted under the as
sumed name of faction Garcia and
had been on the Mexican side since
the Santa Ana murder. Fuente came
to Calexico this week to seek out
the slayer and soon recognized Vas
quez as the man wanted. Fuente in
formed the Mexicali police and while
so doing Vasquez stabbed him five
times with large knife, the wound
ed man dying soon after.
The Mexican authorities were told
that the man was wanted for mur-
der in Orange county and he will be
turned over to the proper authori-
ties.
