Chicago. Sept. 1e.-wheat = Liver
pool cables came sharply higher on
the expectation Of lighter worlds ship
ments and on account IF smaller offer
ings. This resulted in a sharp adj
vance in our market and prices ranged
at good advances from last nights
close. Highest ezures Of he week we're
made. but a moderate set back oc-
Cured from these prices, due to profit
taking fer the week end. Further ex.
port sales were reported and had more
effect on the market than recently Nn
account Of the fact that the Liverpool
market was advancing in the face OF
good export purchases
Corn-More interest was shown in
the corn market. due to liberal export
sales during the past few days. Five
hundred and forty thousand bushels
are confirmed as sold, part Of which
is already loaded. Continental buyers
were said TO be bidding again today for
our corn. but no sales have been out
up TO this time. The country is ship
ping very little corn. as shown by the
fact. that only forty-six cars We're on
sale today. Advices Of fresh ship
ments are practically nothing.
Oats-While there was apparently
little fresh outside buying Of cats, some
of the stronger local holders were add
ing TO their lines and prices advanced
sharply with other grains. A gain Of
about L cent is shown from last
nights close aitno the deferred futures
have not Yet quite reached the level
of last Saturdays close
Provisions While there is little
change in the domestic situation. a
better export inquiry for lard is re-
ported, this with the strength in
grains, resulted in irmer and higher
provision market. The hog run is hard

sure is felt on prices from tkat source.

This is the sentiment expressed by
members of President Wilson's cabi.
net.
Once regarded with favor as per.
sons who sought to restore constitu-
tional government to Mexico, the Con-
stitutionalists admittedly fallen into
disrepute.
Only clear explanation of the kill
ing Of William Benton and the pursu-
ing of straightforward course in the
future, can restore to Carranza their
lost prestige, it is believed.
Furthermore, it is generally re-
ported that unless the killing Of Ben.

Mexico, no matter what success they
may obtain against Huerta. In the alb

certain that Great Britain would refuse
to recognize Carranza even should he
be elected president. Also it is limited
Great Britain might persuade other
! nations to withhold recognition and it
is not impossible that the United
States might be one of those nations.
That Carranza is beginning to rea-
lie this fact Is believed here. AL
ready assurances have been received
from his friends that he is willing to
modify his announcement that he is
under no obligation to furnish the
United States with information about
Benton or any other foreigner.
Secretary Bryan received a note
from General Carranza, signed by Sc
nor Fabella, acting secretary of for.
eign affairs of the cabinet of the Con-
stitutionalists, assuring the American
government that the disappearance of
Gustav Bauch, the German.American,
will be promptly investigated.
