TODAY'S MARKET REPORT.

Chicago, June STANDARDIZATION
wheat prices here suffered sharp break
today on account of a sensational decline
at Liverpool the Chicago market neverthe-
less relatively steady as compared
with British quotations. Leading houses
here were good buyers. and there were re-
ports of excellent seabOard demand for
cash wheat. Denials of progress against
the Turks at the DardanelleS tended to
bring about rallies. After opening 2Ac
to 44c down, prices were recovered to
about cents above the lowest level at the
start.
A decided further rally ensued, but af
terward selling increased owing to as
sumption that the government crop report
would prove to be much in favor of the
bears. The close was unsettled at 1Ac to
21ac down compared to Saturday night.
CORN-Corn seemed to be governed by
the action of wheat. Cash houses showed
activity the buying side. Opening
prices. which varied from 1c to 11ac lower,
were followed by upturn of much
a cent above the initial low point.
Moderate additional gains were scored,
but they failed to last when turned down
grade near the end of the session. The
close was steady at as@1ac to 1A@13sc
net decline.
OATs-Oats swayed with other grain.
Prominent concerns were aggressive in
swapping up any sacrifice offers
VISIONS-Provisons sympathized
but little with the decline in cereals. On
all soft spots, shorts were disposed to
cover.

tributng company.
Back to Old Gas Rates.
Then Treleaven explained further
IF you cut off the big consumers
under a high rate or by an arbitrary
order, you must establish a step rate, .
he said. You must make that rate
almost if not equal to artificial gas
rates"
Doran also gave some information
about gas rates and gas consumption.
THE average citizen has about so
much to pay for fuel said the law
yer. IF you make the rate so high
that he can't pay it, he must go to
coal or some other fuel
Treleaven then urged that a high
rate be esta blished for the patron
who used but a few thousand feet
each month and a lower rate to the
large consumer. Chairman Bristow
argued the point with the witness,
sumner required the meeting of a GER
tain overhead expense.
What are the elements of cost that
should make the small consumer pay
more than the big one?" asked BriS-
tow.
The overhead expense" was the
reply. Il haven't figured it all out,
but it costs as much to read the meter
and keep books for a man who uses
rs cents worth of gas as one who uses
$25 WORTH
The witness went into the record of
the affairs of the local gas company
since it engaged in business here in
1905. He said that at that time the
company had but 2,70O patrons. They
now supply $4,000 consumers.
Gas for Heating.
Gas supplied for heating purposes
in Topeka in the winter of 1913-14
was less. than fifty per cent of the
amount supplied in 1911-12. Treleaven
told the commission. This situation
was due to the fact that the Kansas
Natural did not supply sufficient fuel
to meet the demands.
Right at this point the commission
stopped the witness to ask him if more
gas could not be supplied to the con-
sumner if the distributing companies
repaired their pipe lines to the point
that they would not leak. Treleaven
looked at the matter from the prac-
teal side. He didn't argue that the
merely mentioned that good pipes
wouldn't materially increase the reve-
nue..
1t was a pitiful tale that Treleaven
business. 1t has been slipping for sew
eral years, he said, but last year it
took an $4,000 tumble in gross reve-
nue.. In 1913 the company's revenue
was 100000, as against $4,000 in
1914.
Before leaving the stand, the wit
ness was asked about rates on which
a fairly profitable business might be
maintained by the gas company.
The average consumer would be
glad to pay 80 to 40 cents for gas if
he were assured he would receive an
adequate supply said Treleaven.
Gas is cheaper at 35 cents for fur
mace use than coal at SIS a ton"
Again, Treleaven urged:
Gas would be generally used for
cooking at 81 thousand feet"
Concerning the shortage in the sup
ply, the witness told the commission
that an increase of 100 per cent would
be necessary to meet the fuel demand
felt in Topeka three years ago.

Republicans Again in Control of Hill
nois Supreme Court.

Chicago, June s. Republicans
elected four of the five judges of the
Illinois supreme court in yesterdays
judicial election, thereby regaining
control of that body. The new court
will be made up of four Republicans
and three Democrats. For many years
the Republicans had a majority of
court, but the appointment last Feb
ruary of Albert Watson, Democrat, by
Governor Dunno, to fill a vacancy,
gave control to the Democrats
According to returns today in Cook
county (Chicago), the Republicans
elected fourteen out of the twenty cir
cult court judges voted for and the
Democrats six.
The Republicans also elected the
two judges of the superior court
