LOCAL LAWYERS ARE
LOOKING FOR VICTIMS
Baseball Members Accuse Hammond
Bunch Of Getting Cold
Feet.

Although the Hammond attorneys
challenged the local bar association
to a baseball game and the South
Bend lawyers Immediately accepted
the defy, nothing has been heard since
from the Hammond players. The
Hammond bar ball club challenged
any other team of attorneys in the
state and challenged the South Bend
lawyers especially.
Otis s. Romine accepted the cha!-
lenge on behalf of the local attorneys,
but the Hammond men have not an
swered. Two games were to have
been played, one in South Bend and
the other in Hammond.
South Bend barristers will play a
number Of bar associations from other
counties over the state this summer.
The annual contest with the Indi-
annapolis lawyers will be staged early
in July. Games with the Laporte
and Allen county associations will be
arranged.

MAY INSIST ON
MILITARY FORM
Carranza Said to Be Opposed
to Proposal of MediatorS-
Capture of ZacateCaS Helps
Rebels.

WASHINGTON, June 26.-The lat
est cloud TO darken the Sunshine of
mediation that followed the nasty
signing of protocols at Niagara Falls,
is the well founded report here that
Generals Carranza and Villa will in
SiSt on a military form of government
for Mexico instead Of the provisional
form with which the mediators have
been wrestling.
Carranza has consistently been op-
posed to a provisional government
claiming that a military regime be-
tween the capture of Mexico City by
the constitutiOnalists and the time nee
essary TO hold a general election is
the only government that viii be able
to bring permanent peace 10 Mexico
SO as 10 insure a fair election.
Villas capture of Zacatecas with its
batteries of artillery that were TO have
been used by the federals in the de-
Tense of Mexico City. is said to have
convinced him that ne and his allied
chieftains can settle the internal af-
fairs of the country in their own way
without the assistance Of the United
States or the three South American re-
publics.
1t is reported the administration
has gone to the length of notifying
Carranza that if he refuses to accept a
provisional president it will hereafter
recognize Villa as the head of the
constitutionalists and deal directly
with him.
Tornado Calderin who is expected e
head any constitutionalist representa-
ton selected 10 meet the Huerta en-.
voys, will arrive here Saturday morn
ing. In case Carranza's reply is favor
able TO the mediation plan he together
with Luis Cabrera and either Jose
VascOncelos or Rafael Zubaran will
depart on the same day for Buffalo
where the conference will open or

STRENGTH SHOWN
IN WHEAT PRICE
Chartering of Vessel Room is
Thought to be Bear Help
More or Less UneaSineSS is
Felt by Shorts. r
BY JOSEPH F. PRITCHARD.

CHICAGO. June 26.-Many in the
wheat trade were surprised because Of
the strength shown By that market on
Thursday. as few knew the real influ-
ence. The chartering OF vessel room
for the outward movement OF 1000
coo bushels Of this grain was the po-
tent bull help. Ii caused heavy buy
ing by investors and this buying was
followed by good takings by shorts.
One reason for the heavy chartering
OF vessel room may be laid at the
stand taken by the railroads in refus-
ing TO give accommodations offered by
the vessels. These heavy charters caus-
ed lake rates to advance fractiOnally
10 Montreal and they were held tight
~ 10 Buffalo and other places.
The wheat market was IN an over
sold condition and there was more or
less uneasiness shown by shorts be-
cause OF the smaller offerings by the
country on what was considered strong
bids.
Illinois new wheat will be seen in
this market by Saturday night, &C
cording TO reports in circulation here
Thursday. There were seven cars OF
the new crop on the inspection list and
this was new red winter and one car
OF new No. hard winter-the latter
being the first receipts OF that partic-
ular description for the season. The
home market, but at Liverpool and
London as we'll that American farm
ers are unlikely 10 dispose Of their
surplus wheat at any further decline.
This caused some buying by investors,
as well as shorts Some one in the
trade took all the July wheat that
could be obtained and millers at Min
neapOlis were active buyers Of that fu-
ture The flour trade was a little bet
ter in all positions and this helped the
market for old wheat as well as new.
Support was lacking in the corn
market which was under more or less
selling pressure from the old bear
crowd, and resting spots for the day
were Ia N 1-Sc lower.
The corn Of Argentine was again a
factor in the worlds situation as the
grain arriving at ports there was de-
ported as in better condition and sales
were made at 81 IA C. l. (. New York
for July shipment Estimated ship
ments from that country this week
were 900, 900 bushels in excess Of the
previous week at 3,S25,00O bushels
but nearly 5000. 600 bushels smaller
than for the corresponding time last
year. The Danube was offering corn
freely 20 the importing countries and
willing 10 meet the views Of buyers.
Oats were La -2c lower and act
ed mainly in sympathy with the weak
ness in corn.
The provision list was well sustained
on the buying OF pork by shorts

BY BROADAN WALL

NEW YORK, June 26.-Stocks
closed weak after lively session with
persistent liquidation.
Bankers with early knowledge OF
the impending trouble in the dry goods
trade were the heavy sellers on We'd

Thursdays market. The announce
ment that II. B. Claflin company had
gone into the hands of receivers was
made known shortly before the open
ing. selling orders were cabled abroad
and a flood of liquidation appeared
at the opening. Pronounced support
was given to the market particularly

| The decline was orderly though con-
sistent until the afternoon session
when a fresh burst of liquidation car
ried prices to new low level.
Wall street takes the news seriously
and the opinion is expressed that fur
ther embarrassments will result be-

United Dry Goods preferred broke
Is points, although the public was as
sured that the holding company was

no way connected, dropped over 3
points. Investment stocks suffered Sc
verely, rejecting the character of the

500 preferred dropped nearly 3. Read
ing on heavy trading fell below 161,
Union Pacific dropped to 81 IA.
| The highly unfavorable condition OF
the copper metal market was reflected
by a fall Of Amalgamated Copper to

Utah Copper touched Sc, although for
eign houses were buyers on a scale
downward.
