SOUTHWEST GETS
IN ON NE " WHEAT
Kansas City Receives Twenty
six Cars While st. Louis Also
Comes in for Big Share
Grade of Exceptional Class.
BY JOSEPH F. PRITCHARD.

CHICAGO, June 2 .. - The south
western markets were given real
taste Of the new wheat movement on
Monday Kansas City receiving &c
cars and there was a goOdly number
at St Louis as well. The average
Spectator who was a holder OF that
grain proceeded to throw il into the
pit and some of those who disposed
or their grain put out short lines
which. with the heavy hedging"
transactions, made the offerings quite
liberal. There were price losses Of
/ a Csc and there was little reaction
and recovery from the lowest prices
reached.
The new wheat now moving is COM
ing out OF Oklahoma, Missouri, Kan
sas and one or two other states, and
it IS grading exceptionally high. the
receipts at Kansas City alone today
being either No. hard winter or No.
red winter. The price OF wheat from
this time forward will hinge on wealth
er conditions in the southwest. Bright
sun and high temperatures will mean
a rush OF farm work in the way OF
harvesting and threshing the wheat
now ready for this work. Rains will
mean deterioration in quality and slow
harvesting and threshing and small
receipts.
Those who are long on cash wheat
at this time are unlikely to dispose OF
their holdings without suffering loss
es, as the entire world is inclined to
back away from the big crop that is
now commencing to move in earnest.
This fact was shown today by he drop
in prices at Liverpool of l 1901 3-8d.
the decline at Budapest of PC and the
smaller losses in all of the other mar
kets. with the possible exception of
Paris, where there were fair adj
vances.
While values are almost &c 'tain to
sell TO a much lower level, it must be
remembe that wheat has Nld off
sharply. and that the market S now
already in an unsOld condit a and
that any attempt on the part { shorts
to cover would mean much lioher
prices.
Corn was a weak market toGa- and
closed 5-Sa 1-Sc lower.
There was a steady feeling at the
opening. but weakness seemed to de-
velop when wheat started on the down
grade Commission houses led in the
buying while professionals were the
sellers. The eastern demand for cash
was slow with sales IF only 125, 600
bushels.
Oats suffered with other grains and
showed losses Of IA n lie for the
LAY.
The fact was fully demonstrated to-
day that on any hard spots in the pro-
vision market there was more than
enough ribs and lard TO take care OF
the buying power.
Commission houses were inclined
TO buy the list az the opening. but they
sold freely on al! the hard spots. The
stock yards crowd were sellers.

SUSTAINS LONG AND
SHORT HAUL CLAUSE
Supreme Court Rules Inter-
state Commerce Commission
Has Righ to Enforce Law.

WASHINGTON, June %. - Ship
ping points in the middle west, the
Rocky mountains and the Pacific
coast won a substantial victory over
the 16 railroads entering that terri
tory in a supreme court decision
Monday. sustaining the long and
short haul clause of the interstate
commerce act and the right of the
Interstate commerce commission 10
enforce that law in the readjustment
of rates based on such hauls.
The railroads fighting this action
had secured from the commerce
court restraining injunchons against
orders directing the adoption Of re-
duced rates for intermountain car
riage. Chief Justice White, delivering
the opinion of the court, ordered the
dismissal of the injunctions and OF
the case for want OF equity.
The supreme court held that the
interstate commerce act places the
authority TO suspend the rule regard
ing the long and short haul primarily
in the commission instead of in the
railroads. 1t was held that the rail-
roads themselves have no right TO
charge less for the long haul than
for the short haul unless they are
given authority by the commission.
The right OF the commission TO estab-
lish zones by the regulation OF freight
rates is upheld and the short and long
haul is declared constitutional in
every respect.
The interstate commerce commits
sion divided the United States into
five zones in arranging rates. 1t
ruled that at no point in group ore.
west Of Omaha, should a higher rate
be made 10 an intermediate point
than TO Pacific coast terminals: from
group IL. the territory OF lines run
ming through Chicago and Omaha. the
intermediate rate might exceed the
terminal rate by seven percent; from
group III. Chicago 10 the New York
state line, by 3 percent, and from
groups ~ and V running along the
Atlantic coast. by % percent. Some
OF these charges were reductions from
$50 20 100 percent and the railroads
made their protest through suit 10
enjoin the commission.

REVIVE HOPE
FOR SUCCESS
The Mediation Conference to
Continue.
VILLA REVOLT AS AN AID
Or. Naon Predicts Negotiations Will
Be Continued Two Weeks-The
Friction Between Carranza
and Villa.

Niagara Falls, Ont-Instead of ad-
journing abruptly Saturday as had
been expected, the mediation proceed
ings will be prolonged for another
week.
The change was brought about as
a result of the visit of Minister Naon,
of Argentina, to Washington, where he
conferred with President Wilson and
Secretary Bryan. DR.. Naon brought
back spirit of optimism and some
new ideas which he impaired to Am
bassador da Cana of Brazil and Minis
ter Suarez of Chile.
The determination which seems to
have been reached is to keep the
mediation board from formal adjourn
ment, though there may be a recess in
another week or SO, while the search
is continued for persons eligible for
provisional president, according to the
ideas set forth in the conferences.
Although no definite plan has been
framed by the mediators and the
American and Huerta delegates were
unaware of the program except in a
general way, all parties expressed a
wish to prolong the negotiations and
make renewed efforts to effect a COM
promise.
The Rebel Friction.
There is every reason to believe
that the friction between Carranza
and Villa and the report that General
Huerta intended to retire in favor of
Pedro Lascurain before the proceed
ings reached a conclusion affected the
mediators ia their decision. The pos
sibility of developments on Mexican
soil in the immediate future, which
might change the entire aspect of the
problem here, has been taken into con-
sideration by the three South Ameri-
can diplomats.
The suggestion that the mediators
waive for the time being the question
of personnel and make an effort to
agree on all the other parts of the
peace program is much in favor. After
it is complete the discussion would
revert to the names for the provisional
presidency. If no agreement were
reached all members of the mediation
colony would delight in a short recess
while the search for names was con.
tinued by the American and Mexican
delegates and the mediators attended
to their private business.

TWO HUNDRED ARE
ENT0MBED IN MINE
Fire Follows Explosion in a
Mine in Alberta.
ALL BELIEVED TO BE DEAD
Even If The Men Escaped The Fire, 1t
Is Believed That They Were
Killed BY Poisonous Fumes
Or BY Falling Debris.

Calgary Alberta.-A mighty explo-
sion Friday entombed $50 miners en-
ployed in Mine No. 20 of the Hillcrest
Galleries Ltd. Of the so miners res
cued only IA were living Friday night
The effects of the disaster were:
Men in mine when explosion oc-
Cured, 900, of whom $50 escaped.
Number rescued, SO, of whom So died
later.
Miners still entombed, 200, probably
persisted by fire which followed the ex-
plosion.
The explosion, which occurred about
a. M, shook the country side for
miles around, lifted the roofs from
many miners cabins and demolished
numerous small buildings. A moment
after the explosion score of panic
stricken surface workers rushed from
the mine, followed by a dense cloud
of smoke and poisonous fumes.
Appeals for help were dispatched to
many towns and in the meantime resi-
dents organized an emergency crew
and began the work of rescue.
When the first rescue crew arrived a
large force of men set about to clear
the shaft, working desperately as the
means of the entombed men came fee
bly, from the mine. The means became
fainter and finally ceased. Thousands
of tons of rock have fallen into the
mine, and it is feared that the men,
even had they escaped death from the
poisonous fumes, probably were crush
ed to death by the falling debris.
No information as to what caused
the explosion has been given, but it
is believed it was due to the forming
of gases.
Thomas Quigley, superintendent of
the mine is among those entombed.
Fire broke out soon after the explo-
sion, but almost Immediately died out,
although the gas fumes made it i'm
possible for the men to work effective
ly for several hours.
| The explosion tore out both ends of
the pit and blocked the interior of the
workings, making it almost impossible
to gain entrance. Most of the miners
were working about 400 feet inside the
mine.
A majority of the men are foreign.
born, but large number of them are
English-speaking.

whose home was at S442 Bay Park,
Brooklyn, was torn to shreds and prac.

There were 10 lions in the freight
car, located on sidetrack at Sixteenth
street and Indiana avenue, in the heart
Of the city, During the excitement
thousands of people returning from a
days outing were thrown into con-
dition of panic by information that
some of the lions had escaped and
were being pursued by rife squads
from all the nearby police stations and
the Union Stock Yards.
Notwithstanding the peril, Immense
crowds surrounded the scene of "he

While Dietrich was making his brief

young bear or wolf hound, leaped from
the car and tried to slip away George
