Chicago, Sept. 29.-Wheat-An early
bulge in wheat attracted q little fresh
buying and considerable amount of
profit-taking sales. which with local
pressure caused q reaction from last
nights close Continued heavy re-
ceipts and spring wheat was the most
important factor IN the decline. I'm
doubtedly present prices in this coun-
try are attractive TO foreign buyers but
business IS restricted by the difficulty
in securing boats and high rates asked.
Corn-Liquidation in the September
delivery more than offset the prospects
of a return to unsettled weather and
frost IN some sections Of the west.
Cash values were sharply lower. with
buyers showing little interest except
al discounts under September.
Oats-The situation in oats was
similar to that in corn with scattered
liquidation in the September delivery
and demand limited, except from
shorts. Eastern demand was fairly
good. with sales of 100000 bushels:
10000 bushels OF which was sold to
seaboard exporters. Reports from,
abroad are bullish, many complaints
being received of low yields and poor
quality.
Provisions-The provision market
was active being lower early in SYM
pathy with a decline IN hog prices, but
rallying later on buying by packers.
Lard. however was weak and lower,
Packers continue TO quote the cash
market as active especially for meats.

occasionally 10 cents higher. but on

WON'T CONSIDER GREEN BID
Board Holds That Too Great a Chance
Would be Taken on Intake Contract

The board Of water commissioners iii
an informal session this morning reach
ed a decision not to consider the low
bid of George A. Green Of Green Bay
for the construction of the proposed
new intake. 1t was held by the mem
bers of the commission that the bid Of
Green and his provision for pay for
time lost was SO indefinite that the
board would not be warranted in TAX
ing chance with it, "Under this bid
it might cost us half a million dollars
to build the intake was the comment
of one Of the members Of the board.
"We could not afford to take such a
chance and this bid while seemingly
the low bid will undoubtedly be disre-
garded. The next lowest bid is that
Of Clutchey and Halstead Of Pent-
water, Mich, and this bid is about
$4,000 higher than the Green bid. The
members of the commission are hopeful
that final action will be taken on the
matter at the special meeting called
for Friday evening.

ASK COOPERATION OF PEOPLE
Second Attempt Of the City to Use
These Receptacles Expected to Prove
a Big Aid in Cutting Down Expenses
Of Street Cleaning in Kenosha.

'Help Keep the City Clean This
is the old slogan adopted by the street
cleaning department Of the city and
it is staring the people in the face
from eighteen big galvanized rubbish
cans that have been placed in promi-
nent places in the city and it is ex-
pected that these big cans will be used
by the people for the deposit Of rub
bish which has formerly found its way
to the paved streets and caused these
streets to look like badly kept
back yard.
This is the second time that Keno
sha has made an effort to appeal to the
civic pride Of the people by putting
out boxes for the collection of waste
paper and rubbish. Years ago the
Kenosha Outdoor Art Association, long
since out of existence, sought to teach
the people of the city lesson Of keep
ing the streets cleaned and score of
similar rubbish boxes were placed in
the down town districts Of the city
and on some of the residence streets.
They were used for short time and
then they became the legitimate prey
for hoodlums and they were carried
about the streets and most of them
finally found their way to the public
dumps. Of course few of them were
rescued by thrifty people and these
few are now serving as garbage cans
in the door yards of few Kenosha
houses.
The new cans are 20 heavy that il
will be difficult to move them and it is
thought that whether or not they are
an adornment that they Will remain as
permanent fixture on the streets.
One Of the biggest problems that
we have to deal with, said member
of the street committee this morning,
is the cleaning up of waste paper and
other rubbish. A lot Of thoughtful
people, that is thoughtful in their own
business, seem to believe that the
street is a waste basket and the place
to throw all sorts of refuse. AS a re-
suit the streets are Uttered with waste
paper every day and in order to get it
cleaned up man must be kept patrol
ing the streets or the sweeper called
into service. In nearly every one of
the large cities Of the country the
waste paper and refuse cans are main
tanned and in these cities the people
seem to show a willingness to use them.
We do not see why Kenosha people
should not take this same pride in
keeping the city clean. The general
use Of these cans would reduce ma
terially the cost Of keeping the rub
bish off the streets Of the city. We
have tried to place them 50 that they
will be easy of access and we expect
the people to do the rest.
Police officers have been notified of
the placing of the cans and they have
been ordered to make arrests for mali
cious mischief Of any one who may
seek to deface the cans or carry
them away.
Organizations among the women Of
the city are being asked to put their
influence behind this new movement
for cleaner city and it is expected
that the street department. will have
every possible cooperation from these
organizations
