WHEAT PRICES FALL

CHICAGO. Sept. 14.-Wheat prices
today underwent almost as violent a
change as when not quite seven
weeks ago the war bulge in prices
began. Excitement in the present
case, however, was about the pros
pect of a swift approach of peace.
Traders generally took the view that
the triumphs of the allies meant it
would be unlikely for hostilities to
be prolonged
Selling out wheat today was on a
high scale, from the first to the last
and caused an extreme smash of Sh
cents a bushel as compared with 81
cents advance on July % on the &C.
casion when relations between Ger
many and England We're broken off
The downward swing of prices today
brought wheat as low as S111b a
bushel for May delivery as. against
$1.20 Saturday night and s1.32 just
week previous, September S, the
topmost level of the war.

With a dash and a spirit the Arm
strong musical repeated "A Scotch
High BALI at the Columbia last night
to an audience which was only limited
to its seating capacity. There was no
intention of repeating any of the shows
at the Columbia but it was found that
so much rehearsal was required for the

es'. that it was deemed best to comply
with the scores of requests that the
Harry Lauder comedy be put on again
at this time, and it is certain that the
management made no mistake in so
doing. Each of the six principals of
the company have unusually good num-
bers, and with the additions made to
the chorus just recently, both the sing
ing and dancing numbers got across in
telling way.
Unlike most of the travisties in the
Armstrong repertoire, a Scotch High

the characters are burlesqued, the story
is consistent from beginning to end

PACKARD CAR HEAD
VISITS PE0EN|X TOWN
Making TranscontinentaI Test Run
Stops to Visit Macarthur
Brothers

S. D. Walden, vice president of the
Motor company, stopped
over in Phoenix yesterday enroute
from the west to the east by way
of Globe and the Roosevelt road. He
was driving a 1915 model 33S test
Car. 1t is customary for the Pack
ard people to make a transconti-
mental tour every three months in
the way of a test. The idea is to
cy in construction.
In Phoenix Mr.. Walden was re-
ceived by Macarthur Brothers, who
ably represent the Packard organiza-
ton and service in this section of
the southwest. Mr.. Waldron stated
that he came by way of what he
was told was the toughest road.
through the Monmouth Wash and
Yuma up from there here, but that
he had had no trouble, and the old
car was still riding like a Pullman.
He is returning after a seven weeks
tour on the coast.
Business men everywhere on the
coast are optimistic" SAID Mr.. Valid
ION yesterday. They feel that the
great travelling public of America
will all flock thither since the war
in Europe has shut them off from
spending their winters in those de-
llghtful sections. A fuller acquaint =
ance with what America has to Of
fe- in the way of delightful climate
and scenery will do a lot towards
breaking up the Europe every year
habit, and will be the cause of many
millions of dollars being spent at
home. With even a portion of the
S1OO,OOO,O00 annually spent in Eur
ope by Americans spent in the west
there would be a whole lot better
times out here in this section every
day in every year"
incidentally Warren Macarthur of
the firm who has been in Ell Paso
arrived here yesterday just in time
to greet Mr.. Waldron. While away
Mr. Macarthur placed the agency for
the Jeffreys line of cars with the
great International Auto company of
the Pass City, who also handle the
Packard cars there. This is d
feather in the cap of the local men.
