WAGNER'S REVIEW
Morning Grain Letter.

Chicago. Jan. 14-On the morning
news there should be a cent rally in
all grains and only small dips in pro-
visions. Securities news is also more
cheerful. While the gain in steel or
ders is not large everyone is pulling
for an improving tone in business.
Primary wheat receipts Tuesday were
small and shipments were improved.
Primary corn receipts and shipments
are less bearish. Piling up of corn
supplies at Chicago is completed for
moment. A. the seaboard the Argen-
tine has raised its price and seems to
Rave quit offering old corn This
leaves the seaboard with about Is
cargoes on the way. The local crowd
is still bearish on corn, but the more
conservative are taking another di-
gest of the peculiar complex condi-
tiOns Reduction of the Australian
wheat surplus to an ordinary 10000
600 and further news on a small Ar
gentine surplus should help wheat.
Any removal of bear pressure on corn
will be fell in oats and wheat. One
report claims seven boats carrying
! 10000 corn en- route to New York.
Worlds visible supply of hreadstuffs
showed the normal increase of 10000
600 to 252.OOO.OO. At this total the
January world supplies are entirely

TANGO NOT DANCED
AT THE WHITE HOUSE

Washington, ID. c., Jan. 1.-THE
tango was not danced at the diplomat
ic reception at the White house last
night. In fact, there was no dancing
at all. The reception of diplomats and
other invited guests occupied from 3
until IL o'clock. Then the guests were
dismissed and the lights put out.
1t was said just preceding the recep-
ton that the president had decided not
to bar the tango. This was good news
70 some of the young men and girls,
who were ready to give the presiden-
tial party an exhibition of the Argen-
tine steps.
The dance will be on the program,
however, at the next reception-that
for the judiciary-when some OF the
young men and women will dance it,
unless in the meantime an order of
prohibition is issued.
While President Wilson has dispens-
ed with some of the formalities which
hitherto have been observed by the
chief executive he proposes to observe
to the letter the international ameni-
ties of his Office, and the usual series
of official functions will be he during

BANKER HENNINC
is TAKEN IN EAST
Schaumberg Man Is Traced
Through Letter Asking
About Wife and Child.

Chicago, ILL.,, Jan. 14.-Frank NJ
Henning, fugitive assistant cashier OF
the Farmers bank of Schaumberg
who fed on New Years day after
populations of abou- $4,000, was cap
/ tured yesterday in New York
He is still ignorant that his wife has
turned against him. 1t was a letter 70
a friend asking for news of her and
their child that supplied the Burns
detective agency with a clew to his
whereabouts.
Henning disappeared, leaving in the
bank brief message to the officials,
his personal notes for the amount of
the populations, payable to the stock
holders and wishes for a happy New
Year.
The man indicates that he will re-
turn to trial without protest He talk
ed freely with the detectives who took
hinl-mainly talking about his wife.
He told them how he worked his way
through business college, worked in
a country store and saved his money,
and during the panic of 1907 specu-
lated with his employer and made
1,S00. He dabbled in stocks from then
until he left Schaumberg and always
lost.
HenninS said he had an opportunity
in 1910 to purchase stock in the Farm
ers' bank of Schaumberg which was
then being formed by "a stockholders
with capital of $4,000. He had no
money, but borrowed $1,000 from his
father, an ironworker, and after buy
ing an interest in the bank became
bookkeeper. The money he had bor-
rowed was all the savings of his father
and in the hope of paying it back he
filed out signed drafts on the banks
correspondents in Chicago. With the
money thus obtained he resumed spec
uia.ing in the Chicago stock market
Henning said he always lost, but by
skillfully covering up his populations
he managed TO avoid suspicion until
late in last December. Then he
realized the game was up. He had
taken $4,000 and he wrote a detailed
confession and left it in the bank He
made a written appeal to let him have
six months in which to recoup.
The man arrived in New York on
New Years day with $4,000 which he
had on account with a Chicago broker
The law appealed to him as the quick
est and surest way to make $4,000
but much to his surprise. he says he
found that no law school-he went to
