CUMMINS SEEKS TO
CURB SHORT SALES
Iowa Senator Has Bill to Pre-.
vent Juggling Of Grain
Markets.

Washington. D. c.. Jan. Ex-senator
Cummins returned from Iowa this
morning, prepared to press a number Of
important matters Of legislation.
Among other things he intends to work
for his bill to tax out Of existence short
sales Of agricultural products.
He met leading grain men in Des
Moines and heard their objections to
such legislation. Senator Cummins
says he will seek to make 2!lch excep-
lions in his bill as win protect legiti-
mate business. Senator Cummlns holds
there would be no possibility of man
~ipulating grain prices If his bill passed.
He ascribes the recent drop in corn
prices to the effects Of wiping out the
tariff On agricultural products, but
holds 1t essential to legislate so there
a be no manipulation and so that
speculation in agricultural products
cannot be carried on to hurt the con-
sumner.
Trust legislation, railroad legislation
and the gateway amendment" will be
among matters to which Senator Cum
minis will address himself. He ex-
pressed much satisfaction over the
senatorial situation as he found 1t in
Iowa.
The Senate judiciary committee to-
day ordered an unfavorable report on
Senator Cummins' gateway amendment
for the easier amendment Of the con-
stitution.

LIVERPOOL GAINING
AS COMMERCIAL POINT

London, Jan. .13.-London has a task
cut out for itself to hold its own In the

The trade through Liverpool
amounted to over $1,876,0 excluding
coastwise goods, showing an increase
OF $185, 900, 600, while London during
the same time showed an increase Of
only $75, 900, 600. London suffered a
severe setback through strikes and
lack Of port facilities. The port Of
London authorities are now spending
millions in the Improvement of the

REVOLUTION UNDER WAY
IN ENGLAND, SAYS NORDAU

, Vienna, Jan. 13.-Max Nordau. in a
review of the worlds history during
1913, published by the Neue Freie
Presse, lays great stress on the revolu-
tionary character of Lloyd Georges
land campaign which he regards as
the last step in the change of the old
artistrocratic state into q radical
democracy, tending more and more to
socialism. H..
In regard to the Ulster controversy
M. Nordau says: as. ,
Home rule must come to the
compromise with Ulster II it is not
to come to grief. Events in Great
Britain, despite their so far peace
full character, signify one of the
r. mightiest revolutions in history.

HIGH COST OF LIVING
HITS DOG POPULATION

Berlin, Jan. lathe canine popula-
ton Of Berlin is decreasing steadily.
From 1926 in 1909, the number Of
dogs in h city had dropped to 34,443
last year, according to tax statistics
just issued. and an even greater de-
crease is estimated for this year.. The
increasingly high cost Of living, which
makes the saving of a tax Of $3.50
yearly a big item to poor families, Is
undoubtedly one explanation for the
decrease. A further factor this year Is
the dog quarantine law, which has kept
the animals muzzled and on leading
strings for several months.
