The wheat export contingent was nom

adopted by the German Government In
declaring French and English coasts
within the war zones. As result the
wheat situation was clouded and the
market was extremely feverish.
Initial advances to new high rround

PlkES PEAK ASSURED


Colorado Springs, jan 22.-The
iongtaiked-of plan of constructing an
automobile highway up Pixies Peak
Is to be carried out this year by .
group Of local men who have Just
obtainedia permit from the depart
ment Of agriculture In Washington for
;he right Of way for the road plans
for the highwas are being kent secret
TO great extent but several promin-
ent business men and capitalists Of
Colorado Springs are known to be in
terested.
Years ago carriage road was built
10 the summit of the famous peak and
toll was charged, It fell in disuse
nowiders rolled over its right Of way
and timbers clogged up the road until
i; became impossible. In July, 1913
A. c. Brown in the 'Bearcat." the car
formerly owned by Barney Oldheld
made two attempts to reach the sum
init of the peak and on the second
succeeded after hours of hard work in
building his own road for the last Ave
miles. A little alter higher powered
machine climbed the mountain. bui
since then no attempts have been
made altho motorcycles have essayed
the feat successfully.
The practcability of the road has
never been questioned by engineers
ana 1t Is probable that much OF the
old toll road viii be used Tor the new
route. Pixies Peak offers SO much at
tractive scenery and has such a
worldwide fame that automobile traf-
nc Is certain to be popular The new
road win be to:i affair but details Of
the plan have not been announced.
