The voters Of the village of Dill
worth did not vote on the license
question at the annual town election.

licenses issued for another year. The
~anti-saloon people were more alert
than were the license advocates, with
the result that he question Of license
or no license was not submitted. A
few votes were cast for license. but
OF course they were worthless and
thrown away by the election officers.
The following were elected as off,

We Can Wait.

Chicago Tribune: Revolution must
pay to be attractive, and the downfall
Of Huerta would have some of the a
poets Of a bankruptcy of crime. It is
the anomaly in the present dilemma
that u troubles are not with Huerta
whom we oppose, but with Carranza,
whom we have supported.
Admittedly this is more trying to the
patience and more dis~couraging to the
hope of settlement without interven-
ton, but it is not a. encouragement to
make worse by impatience.

Grande and American transports MAY

fice was given today by Com

that cigar makers must stop the

Evening Grain Letter.

Chicago, March 11.-Wheat: Lost
| ground in the face Of an advance in
corn and oats. Prohting by yester-
days experience sellers have been
cautious n have not ventured far
from shore. Pit professionals were
largely on the buying side, expecting
wheat to not sympathize with coarse
grains. There was no real conirma-
ton Of any serious killing in Kansas
and SkeptiCism was displayed toward
several messages claiming a possibili-
ty Of loss there. The market will be
especially susceptible to crop reports
and any authentic information Of de-
terioration will be the signal for a
quick advance and especially in de-
fcrred futures.
Corn-Was the leader in the ac-
tiVity today. The cash situation COM
pletely reversed itself starting with
the report by Kansas City of the
heaviest sales on the crop and prices
there were l to 2 cents higher. Omaha
was also l cent up. Prices started
weak and a shade lower and finished
"a higher. A much broader trade was
in evidence. There was some in
fuential covering by shorts but the
outstanding short interest is still very
large and commission houses were
profit taking on the advance. The
M~ay-July differences again widened
from even to Il cent premium for the
May. If cash demand continues this
should show a larger difference in
favor Of May. We favor purchases Of
May corr on every setback.
Oats opened with corn and closed
IA higher for the day. Cash demand
improved and short covering in futures
was noticeable.
