600, 900 bushels of wheat was re-
Elected in an advance in prices
on the Chicago board Of trade to-
day. December wheat closed 2 81
cents higher at $t.05 ga and May
2 1-2 cents up at $1.O8 1-2.
Action of the Canadian govern
ment II communicating approx
imately 2O,OOO,OOO bushels Of
wheat under the special war act
is expected to result in only slight
fluctuation in the American mar.
ket. according to opinions early
today Of leading grain dealers in
Chicago.
George E. Marcy, president of
the Armour Grain company, and
Joseph Rosenbaum, head of the
j. Rosenbaum Grain company, :
of the largest exporters here, are
among those who do not look for
quick changes in prices. Mr.. Mar
cy predicted that the Canadian
government action would re-
lease greater quantities of wheat

i'll prices.
C. H. Candy, president of the
Chicago Board of Trade, would
make no prediction further than
to say that the demand for wheat
i'm the United States would be at
fected in proportion to the extent
of the Canadian seizures and ac-
cording to the disposition the
government proposes to mahe of
the gain and the price it will pay.
Cause Of Low Prices
Experts said the price of grain
had been kept down so far this
year, for two reasons. The first,
they said, is the enormous supply
both in the United States and
Canada and second, the absence
of competitive bidding. Most of
the supplies for Great Britain
and its allies have been purchas-
ed through one agent, they assert
ed. a
Evidently the action of the Ca
nIdian government is just move
to get hold of the wheat and ship
it to the seaboard before the price

Mi,lers Not Concerned

Franklin NJ. Crosby of Mime
apolis, a well-known miller, was
quoted as saying that the action
does not concern the American
milling interests to any event, as
there is no Canadian grain COM
ing in on purchase and very little
i'm bond for re-shipment.'' The
amount commandeered, he added.
was comparatively small.
There is more than 100000
900 bushels of Canadian wheat
available of that already disposed
of, it was said, as Canada had
$50. 10000 bushels available for
export at the beginning Of the
season, three months ago, and
had disposed of one-half of it.

rises and before navigation clo-
ses for the wnter," said Mr.. Mar
cy. 1.-The grain was held by spec
ulators and had to be moved out
of the elevators to make room for
winter wheat coming in now. To
permit it to lie in the elevators
after December 10 would mean
that it would have to be shipped
out by the all-rail route. This
would add TO the price Of grain
and affect the market. The en-
barge may mean that pressure is
to be brought to bear in certain
quarers for political reasons -
possibly i'm Greece"

GOVERNOR EXPLICIT
IN HIS EXTRA CALL
FOR NOVEMBER 8

ATLANTA, Ga, Sept. 2S.-Inl issu
ing his proclamation for the extra
session of the legislature, which is to
be held November 3rd, Governor Har-
ris is not going to give some of the
lawmakers chance to drag in extran-
eous subjects. He says he will be so
explicit that he hopes there will oa
no room for wrangles over matters
not of an emergency nature. The ses
sion will not be prolonged and the ex-
pense increased, if he can avoid it, he
declared.
The soft drink bill of Judge w. w.
Stark, of the temperance committee
of the house, will not get before the
assembly. as he has planned. The
governor has made it clear that his
proclamation will bar the soft drink
measure. Judge Stark intended to
make the tax on soft drinks supply the
deficiency in revenues which would
be caused if prohibition bills PISSED.
So it's going to be short session,
if the governor has anything to do
with putting on a time limit. He is
now working on his proclamation.
which will be issued in the next day
or two. 1t will call for action on the
subjects of appropriations, prohibition,
Western & Atlantic railroad, state
warehouse system, fish and game lav
and automobile license tax provisions
Governor Harris sees no reason fos
touching on the states finances. He
says he hopes there will be no occas-
ion to pass special tax laws to cover
any deficit which might occur from
the enactment of the prohibition leg
islation.

Mike Rofrano, till lately deputy
street cleaning commissioner in the
reform administration of Mayor Nit
chel, is now wanted by the police as
the instigator of the murder of Mike
Gaimari, another italian, who was
killed some months ago
1t is another case of those stories
of underworld life in New York. Gal
mari was a lieutenant of Tom Foley,
Tammay leader of the Second As
sembly district, which contains thou
sands of Jews and Italians. To beat
Foley, Rofrano's crowd thought it
necessary to get rid Of Gaimari. He
was murdered. Several men have
been convicted in connection with the
crime, but not until recently did the
New York district attorney get suffi-
cient evidence to obtain an indict-
ment again Rofrano, who disap-
peared day or two before the action
of the grand jury became generally
known.

LIQUOR INTEREST
ARRA|CNED BY Mr..
.YE0MANs TERRELL

ATLANTA, Sept. 28.-That the liq-
uor interests have made systematic
attempt to turn the post offices and
rural routes of Georgia into a selling
organization to take mail orders TO-
the shipment of liquor into the state
was the startling assertion made b.,
Representative M. j. Youmans, of Ter E,
rell county, in Atlanta today.
Il am reliably informed said Mr.
Yeomans, that rural route carriers
have been offered ten per cent com,
mission on all orders secured by them
for whiskey.
Il am reliably informed that post
masters have been offered commits
sions ranging from ten to twenty per
cent on all orders secured by them Or
by the clerks in their offices.
I'm certain south Georgia town l
am informed that the postmaster was
offered twenty per cent, the offer COM
ing from liquor house outside the
state.
In a certain north Georgia town
am informed that the postmaster was
offered ten per cent, the offer coming
from a liquor house in a Georgia cit,-
where the open violation of the pro-
hibition law is notorious.
Il am informed of similar offers
being made to rural route carriers ia
various parts of the state.
1T affords me a gerat deal of salts
faction to state that in every instance
where commission was offered, 50
far as l can learn, it was contemptu-
ously rejected
''The state of Georgia is being flood
ed with liquor shipments not only
from liquor houses outside of the state
but from liquor houses inside the
state that openly violate the law ana
solicit mail orders.
THE state has the power under the
Webb Kenyon act of congress, to pro-
hibit these shipments from outside
while the prohibition of shipments by
liquor houses inside the state involves
nothing more than the enforcement;
of the prohibition law.
The anti shipping bill is extremely
important. 1t will come up in the extra
session, together with the other proh
bition bills, and should be passed by
all means. 1t is the bill the farmers
want passed, because shipment OF
whiskey is demoralizing the farm la
Dor of the state"

Russians Favored i'm Battle.

LONDON, Sept. 28.-The fighting in
the east still favors the Russians or
the southern end of the line although
there is no confirmation of the report
that they have reached the important
railway junction. at Kovel.
The most momentous struggle s.
centers on Dvinsk, where it is said
that the Germans are re-grouping
their forces for another blow.
Bulgaria has not made her next
move clear. The Serbian war offices
report that two Teutonic attempts t
. cross into Serbia have both failed.
The Russians have silenced the Ger
man land batteries on the Gulf of Riga.
One Russian battleship is reported to
have been hit by shell. The Serb
ian minister at Sofia has reported in
the Budapest dispatches, via Berlin
giving notice of his intention to
leave Bulgaria on account of i'll
health. The same authority reports
that the German consuls in Macedonia
have withdrawn on leave of absence

More French Gains.

PARIS, Sept 24.-Further gains as
the result of the new allied offensive
in the Artois region near Souchez are
reported in the French official state
ment. Additional progress is reported
in the Champagne country.
The Germana counter attack in the
Argonne region has been repulsed
The Germans left the ground covere
with dead, and they are offering stub
born resistance to the attacks in
Champagne. The position to which
they have retreated are protected by
system of barbed wire entangle
ments.
