PRICE 0F WHEAT
 DROPS IN CHICAGO
Report That Italy Will Join Allies Sends Prices Down-Other Rea-
 sons Also Given.

CHICAGO, Jan. 12.-The price of wheat dropped today because of the report that Italy would enter the war against Turkey. It is said by the brokers, who have agents in every country, that if Italy comes in Greece and Rumania and possibly Bulgaria will join the Allies and in conse- duence the war will be over in a few months, as the Germanic allies would be crushed by the terrible weight of numbers. Italy, Rumania and Greece and even Bulgaria have been mak- ing active preparations for war for months and are ready to start hos tilities. T5e French and British have also brought strong endorsements into shape for tremendous spring campaign and military experts believe that the war cannot last six months longer.
 The brokers are therefore anxious to sell all the wheat they can while the prices are high and the heavy un- loading yesterday and today sent prices down. The closing quotation yesterday on the Board of Trade was $1.341s bushel.
 One report, however, has it that the brokers have been forcing the market up and are now unloading on the high market and that the high prices of the past few weeks was a stock job between the big wheat brokers, who cornered large part of the visible supply and started news paper campaign to induce suckers to buy, expecting the raise which will never come.
 Talk of an investigation has start- ed which may result in indictments of many members of the Board of Trade.

NEW YORK, Jan. 12.-More than 500,000 citizens of Greater New York are out of employment. Many fac- tories have reduced their working force while others are only working part time. Charitable organizations are doing everything possible to re- lieve the families of the unemploy- ed. The large number of jobless men, in spite of the fact that immense public works are under construction, has caused much alarm among busi- ness interests as they fear conditions will continue to grow worse. The new subways building employ fully 100000 laborers.

GUARDS
 SENTENCED DEATH

ATHENS, Jan. 12.-The blowing Up of the battleship Messudieh by a British submarine, made a great i'm pression in Constantinople. as it was considered that the Dardanelles were inaccessible. On account of this fact the commanders of the forts and of a torpedo boat destroyer have been held responsible.
 On the third day after the disaster a special court-martial, presided ov- CT by high Turkish and German off cers, W held to try twenty Turks and ten Germans. Three were con demned to death, it being held that they had shown neglect. Less severe sentences were passed on seventeen others, among them some Germans.
 WASHINGTON, Jan. 12.-Delayed sdvices to this government from Con- stantinople say that the Turkish of- ficials regarded the blowing up of the battleship Messudieh as severe loss. The feat caused consternation in the Turkish capital because of the fear that more submarines would pene- trate the Dardanelles in the future.
 The Turkish officials, according to the same advices, have been much perturbed in regard to spices. They assert that every time the Turkish fleet enters the Black Sea the Rus sians are immediately aware of the movement and send a stronger force to drive the Turkish ships back in- to port.

Stone TRUST of Indiana.
Twenty years ago, that was before
the slick and polished well groomed rep
resentative of the stone trust was known
in Colorado, or in other words, before
his advent to the sanctum of county
commissioners, or his fraternizing with
Colorado architects, Colorado stone was
not only popular at home, but We were
shipping trainloads East and West. To-
cry and derricks that cost a fortune are
rotting and resting in our quarries, all
owing to the greed of Stone Trusts ane
the questionable methods of their
agents. and the lack of interests by the
citizens and commercial bodies of this
state. The heavy hand of this blighting
curse of the stone trust has fallen heav-
lily, not only the stone industry but also
on the Stone Cutters of Colorado. Tr
1890, 500 stone cutters We're happily
domiciled in Denver, S per cent of that
number owning their own homes. In
addition to that we had ass working in

tiers working in the entire state.

Judging from the number of officials
of the miners who attended the "open
forum" dinner at the Adams hotel Tues
day, the miners can be counted upon
to lend their influence to this new move
ment in which it is hoped TO organize
a body that will be a power for the
advancement of progressive thought.
Reports reaching the Mine Workers
headquarters from the various coal
camps in this state show that the cost
of the recent strike is evidently to be
paid for by those now working in the
mines. For instance where men received
s2.25 per yard for driving entries they
now must do this work without pay,
receiving only the tonnage price for the
coal they mine.
A Northern Colorado miner was heard
to remark one day last week that it
would be interesting reading if some
of the coal mine pay-rolls were publish
ed showing the earnings of miners since
the strike was called off, especially II
the number of men assisting in the
production of coal that is sent out on
one check number were given as well
as the hours each labored.
