WHEAT PRICES ADVANCE
UNTIL ORDERS ARE FILLED
Higher Liverpool Quotations and
Visible Supply Rumors Count
Against Chicago Bears.

CHICAGO. March 15.-Higher prices
at Liverpool. where there was a large
decrease In stocks, had a bullish ef-
feet today on the wheat market here.
The outlook for a decided falling of
in the domestic visible supply total
counted also against the bears. Offers
were scarce here until the price in
some cases had moved up 2s above
Saturdays finish. The opening. which
ranged from u to 1% higher. was fol-
lowed by a continuous advance until
orders to purchase were filled, bu1
then a material reaction took place.
Small Receipts Help Corn.
Smallness Of receipts helped to lift
the corn market. In addition. one OF
the largest houses in the trade was
conspicuous buyer of futures. After
starting a shade off to ss up, prices
scored gains all round.
Lively commission house demand for
oats was in evidence. Pit traders VIM
were short hurried to cover.
Large export clearances tended 70
steady provisions. On the other hand.
there was considerable selling IN small
lots by miscellaneous holders. Z.

Increased wheat strength developed
later owing to disclosure OF export
sales of cash wheat here. and because
of the suspension Of telegraph service
between Italy and Austria. The close
was nervous, 21s to 81 above Saturday
night. A.
Rainy weather that promised contin-
ued smallness of corn arrivals brought
about further hardening OF prices.
The close was steady, at ~ to Halls

SUCCESSFUL WORK OF DR. DOUGLAS IN MAKING RADIUM

WASHINGTON, Feb. 2.-The sue cess of the plant established at Den yer by Dr. Howard Kelly of Balti- more and Dr. James Douglas of New York. for the extraction of radium from the carnotite ores of Colorado and Utah. was announced in the House by Representative Martin D. Foster of Illinois. Chairman of the Committee on Mines and Mining
 These two men ,Dr Kelly and Dr Douglas" he said, contributed each S75.OOO to establish the plant by which. as an act of humanity this wonderful and most valuable sub stance might be produced I hold in my hand the output of that plant which has been in operation less than a year. Here is S11OO0 worth of ra. dium, or 171 milligrammes This was produced under the direction of the United States Bureau Of Mines, of which Charles L Parsons is the head"

 The incident stopped business in the house. Speaker Clark appealed to MT. Foster to retire with the radium fo the lobby .twothirds of the House tra.led out after the Illinois member Representative Foster who is phy- sician. from the first has display great
 interest in the development of the radium resources of the United States and has endeavored to obtain legisla- ton to prevent the creation of a mon opoly in a substance of such great value to science and medicine
 The arrangement is that the annual output at Denver shall belong to Drs
 Kelly and Douglas until the whole amount produced shall reach 2 grams when the laboratory shall be turned over to the Government 10 be contin- ued for the benefit of the American people Dr Kelly and Dr. Douglas are looking forward to the day when the amount O available radium win be SO increased that it may be used in a water solution and in that form in- jected Unto the tissue for the cure of malignant growth, such as cancer.
 The significance Of the announce .ment Of the success of the Kelly-Doug- las laboratory arises from the fact that other attempts made in this country to reduce the cornoute ores ou a sue cussful commercial basis have failed. Up to the beinuing Of 1914 there were in this country but two grams of ra- dim The Bureau of Mines estimated that in 1912 euouhg caruoute was slipped to Europe to make nine
 grams This ore. the cream of the deposits iu Colorado. was shipped out
 of the country as common iron ore, and when American physicians and hospitals desired 10 make use of ra- dium they were obliged to buy radium produced from American ores, paying

 Any day somebody may decide to introduce a bill abolishing the inspec- tor or weights and measures and turn ing his duties over to the mine in- spector The office of mine inspec- tor is constitutional. but his duties are fixed by the legislature, and if the state lawmaking body tells him to inspect cheeses, wagon scales or quart measures it is up to him to make good
