NEW CITIZENS IN GERMAN RANKS
Men Fight For Adopted Country Soon
After Being Naturalized.

Correspondence OF Associated fress.I
Hamburg, March 26.-Many of the
soldiers now in the field are natural
lied Germans, some Of them men who
have only taken out their first papers.
AS indicative of the spirit OF these men
the letter Of one OF them, who shortly
before the war was refused full citi-
zenship, is made public. It reads:
1--WE did not go to war in order to
gain our German citizenship papers
but to be Germans. We long have been
Germans even tho the written evidence
OF it was lacking. Our attitude OF
mind made us Germans, which a mere
piece of paper never could do. Merely
because we did not happen to have the
pa per, could we think and do other
than we did?
I'VE could not stay at home. That
would have been incompatible with
our principles and our honor. Were we

Divorce. Before Marriage.

Mr.. Jones first thought was that he
should be happy ever after II Miss
Bowrn would marry him. They be-
came engaged. His second thought was
that il he married Miss Brown he
should be extremely unhappy. He
broke the engagement. Miss Brown
brought an action for breach Of prom
is .eShe asked for 100000. Mr.. Jones.
knowing that she had a good many Of
his letters, remembering that another
lady had lately recovered 100000 from
another gentleman, and yaluing free
dom from marriage TO Miss Brown at
a good deal less than this sum, had
third thought. He again made Miss
Brown an offer of marriage. She, be-
ing informed by her lawyers that this
offer reduced to almost nothing her
chance Of winning hir suit, withdrew
the same. few months Of marriage
convinced Mr.. Jones that his second
thought was his best. He went to- Me-
vada, established residence, and got
divorce. 1t is sometimes cheaper for
man to change his mind after mar
rage than before. II our laws were
symmetrically logical. wouldn't they
permit either divorces before marriage
or breach Of promise suits afterward!

Wheat-A slight improvement in
values in Liverpool and the liberal pro-
portion of world shipments furnished
by this country resulted in further
short covering Of wheat and some
scattered buying by commission houses.
Profit taking on the advance and some
short selling on account Of improved
conditions, due to scattered rainfall
over the winter wheat belt over Sun
lay causes reaction from the high
point and closing prices were q to 2A
higher The visible supply decreased a
little less than expected, but total
stocks are 38,29s.000 bushels or about
1880, 900 bushels less than last year.
Corn-Strength In wheat and reports
of unfavorable weather in the Argen-
tina, which Is interfering with corn
harvest, led to a considerable volume
If local short covering and a moderate
advance early in the day. Profit taking
late in the session resulted in a loss
of practically all the early gain. The
most bullish feature was a. decrease OF
3426,000 bushels in the visible supply
which was a little more than generally
anticipated. Cash demand, while fair.
is not Of sufficient volume to ma
terially reduce the total before the
FIRST of May at the present rate Of ship
ping.
Oats-Oats were hard to buy and
ruled higher during the fore part of
the day. Conditions were reversed
when other grains turned weak and
closing prices were about Il cent
lower than Saturday. Despite heavy
clearances last week and a fair domes-
tic shipping demand the visible supply
decreased less than 100000. Total
stocks are, however, considerably in
excess Of those of year ago.
Provisions-Provision were higher
with the advance in hogs but closed
easy at comparatively little change,
Realizing by holders and some selling
attributed to packers were responsible
for thu loss of the early advance. Cash
trade while fair, was disappointing
The advance in the past week is
thought to have largely reduced the
local short interest.

Frankfurt.r. Of Whale Meat.

rankfurterS made Of whale meat are
getting to be quite the thing in Den
mark, according TO Einar Henrlksen,
mechanical engineer Of Tonsberg.
Norway, who is at the Raleigh.
Mr.. Henriksen came to America to
study drop forging. He was gradua ted
from a school of mechanical engineer
ing in Christiana a year ago. and
planned to go to Germany and then
to come to the United States to study
this particular line strengthening, but
the war kept him out Of Germany
There has been developed in Nor
way in the last few years new field
of industry in which mechanical engi-
neers are much interested said Mr..
Henriksen. This is the designing and
manufacture of machinery for cutting
up whales. II requires special machin-
cry, of course, and the investigation
Of the whale in relation to the kind Of
ma chinery required for dissectcing 1t
developed the comparatively new in
dustry Of using whale meat for frank
furters. A big business has grown out
of this. Most of the whale meat Is
sent to Denmark and there made into
frankfurters Whale meat tastes not
unlike beef and is very nutritious.
have frequently eaten whale steaks.
The United States" added Mr.. Hem
riksen, sis more advanced in drop
forging than any other country. 1t was
first used here in 1860, but was not
perfected until sometime later. 1t has
been only in the last ten years that Eng
land has taken up drop forging, and
even now it requires Americans to in
struct the Englishmen. Nearly all of
the parts of an automobile upon which
the greatest tension and friction occur,
as, Of course, with all other high grade
machinery, are drop forged. Next to
America, Germany is farthest advanced
in this line.'
Mr.. Henriksen has visited Buffalo
Detroit, Chicago, New York and other
Industrial centers. He is much i'm
pressed with the United States. he said
and declared that Washington is the
most beautiful city in this country
Until he came here, he said, he thought
Detroit was.

Lishtness of Observation-Disclosures of
Oats Provo Seanty and the Market
Follows Course Of Othsr Cereals
Higher Hog Prices Lift Provisions. +

Chicago. April 12.-Wheat prices
here advanced sharply today, in
fluenced by higher quotations at Liver
pool and by decided falling off in
the amount Of wheat on ocean passage.
A leading export house was conspicu-
Gus In the buying Of July. May trans
actions were confined chiefly to small
lots. After opening q to 1as cents
higher, the market scored more gains.
The fact that navigation on the
great lakes soon would be general
helped to prevent more than a mod
crate reaction. The close was unset
tied, e to 2ls cents higher
Corn.
Corn rose with wheat. The lightness
of receipts also has a bullish influence.
Opening prices, which varied from a
shade to q and Y higher, were fol-
lowed by some additional upturns.
The close was nervous, q off to
1s@A up.
Offerings Of oats proved scanty. In
consequence the market took the same
course as other grain.
Provisions.
Higher prices for hogs lifted pro-
visions. Selling was only of a scat
tered sort.

The fight, as already stated, centres around the paragraph in the urgent Deficiency bill, making appropriation to carry the law in eff feet.

 It is proposed to raise revende in lieu of the Income tax from two sources, viz.: to increase the tax on beer and to revive the tax of two cents on each bank check.
