Profits In Armament and Coal.
The Krupp trials in Germany show
TO what lengths in bribery the great
armament firm at Essen, through its
directors and managers, went In order
to obtain contracts from the German
government. Indictments were found
against the Krupp officers and agents,
largely In consequence OF revelations
in the reichstag, by Liebknecht, So
cial Democrat. They were charged
with bribing members OF the military
and naval establishment between 1903
and 1913 and the disclosures at the
trial proved their guilt. More than
this, however, these disclosures gave
publicity TO the enormous profits de-
rived by the Krupp concern and
showed where tho fines from the tax
payers pockets went. The result Is
TO strengthen the cause OF the advo-
which bluff old Doctor Johnson called
the last refuge OF scoundrels, Is shown
to be in naval expenditure argument
the first resort OF thieves.

here the owner OF coal mines-and,
more recently, since oil is used for
fuel, the owner of oil properties-is,
in various ways and for his own per-
sonal ends, jealous advocate OF more
and bigger ships. A dreadnaught
burns 40 tons OF best coal every hour
British landlords draw royalty of 30
cents a ton for coal mined. Every
British dreadnaught in use. therefore,
means 5000 day to the owner Of the
coal royalty.

Harde, the British labor leader, some
OF the peers and their friends in tho

GRAIN HIGHER IN CHICAGO
Wheat Makes a Sharp Advance
Provisions Also Up,

Chicago, Oct. 23.-Immense export
sales gave the wheat market to-day
big upward swing. The volume of trade
was the largest since the excitement at
the beginning of the war. Prices closed
steady at IA to Inc net advance.
Other leading staples, too, all scored a
gain-corn q to %c, oats % to &c
and provisions from a shade to 1Oc.
Foreigners accepted without haggling
nearly every offer of wheat LJ-day
from any point in the United States.
The amount taken was estimated as
high as 100000 bushels. In addition
to the heavy purchasing Of cash wheat
there was lively demand from ex-
porters for December delivery both
here and at other centres. 1t was cur
rent gossip that in some places the
agents of Germany and England were
bidding against each other. One trans
action that involved fifteen boatloads
to go to Italy was said to have been
made at the highest price so far on
this years crop. Range of prices:

TRADE OUTLOOK MIXED
Domestic Buying Light, but
, War Orders Prove Helpful.

Reviews OF commercial agencies tell
OF some stimulation in special lines be-
cause of war contracts, but purely do
nestle trade is still disappointing and
considerably below normal. Warm
weather is further impeding buying Of
fall and winter goods. Collections con-
tinue slow, and commercial failures
outnumber those of the preceding week
and OF the corresponding week of last
year.
"Dun's Review" says: Basic condi-
tions are steadily improving, although
considerable contraction in general
trade continues. The war has stimu-
lated activity in certain lines, but the
volume of distribution, both at whole
sale and retail, is reduced as result
in large part of enforced economies and
checked enterprise. Drygoods are less
active, except in those special lines
which are stimulated by the war con-
sumption. In the shoe trade the mills
are kept very busy by war contracts.
Commercial failures this week In
the United States are 1872, against 351
last week, 447 the preceding week ard
$40 the corresponding week of last
year. OF these 15l were in the East,
III in the South, IS in the West, and
So in the Pacific States, and 14s re-
ported liabilities of $4,000 or more,
against 1871 last week. Liabilities Of
commercial failures reported thus far
for October are $31 ,050,033, against
$10,370,716 last year."
"Bradstreet's" has the following: an
trade lines proper there are many cross
currents visible. Warm weather, while
permitting farmers to work busily, is a
bar to activity in retail trade in fall
and winter goods, while the slowness
of the cotton situation to right itself
stagnates trade at the South. Collec-
tions are rather slow as a whole. War
demands are an important stimulus to
meat packing, lard refining, blanket,
auto. and wagon manufacturing, har-
ness making, machine tools of various
kinds, drugs, hospital supplies, under
wear and knit fabrics, and horses.
mules, grain and petroleum are being
actively bought and shipped"

at was not rancid or rotten" said
Mr.. Henry, "but it was very ordinary
butter, and not fit to be used in hot
climate"
The exchange was puzzled to see
how its stamp was affixed to butter
of such quality. Barrett was quizzed,
and admitted his lumbago and dere-
LECTION in duty. He was discharged,
the firm of Henniberger e. Herold was
suspended for year, and good but
ter was substituted for the bad.
Barrett, it was brought out, went
into the butter business, and was ad-
mitted to membership in the Exchange.

punishment" asked Mr.. Kennedy.
81 am not in a position to say" re
piled Mr.. Henry, since / was not the
sole judge"
"No wonder you dislike to answer
questions" said Mr.. Kennedy, IF your
exchange allows such conduct TO be
pulled off under it's nose and, upon dis
covering il, merely suspends the Of
tenders for one year"
Mr.. Kennedy read letters showing
that the government threatened never
again 10 recognize the stamp of the
Mercantile Exchange as a test of quail
ity unless thorough inquiry was
made.
The inquiry will not be continued un-
til Thursday. Mr.. Kennedy intends 20
go TO Chicago, where the National As
ISOLATION of Dairymen is in session. He
hoped to pick up some valuable ipfOr-
nation from shippers, he said.
