ITALY BUYS $500 WHEAT
Carload Of Durum, Delivered in Europe
Brings $1.9eH a HusheI--Buyins by
France and Italy Carries Prices to
Highest Level Snce Letters At
tempted World Wide Squeeze.

Chicago, Jan. 1.-Two dollars "a bu-
shell for wheat the dream that only
enthusiasts ever expected to come true,
was within one-half cent of being a
realty today on one grade of wheat. ii
the cost OF delivery to Europe might
be counted a part Of the price. car
load of durum wheat was sold to sc
to Italy on basis that figured, at
destination. at s1.99h bushel Such
price breaks all records for durum
wheat. The supply Of that variety ir
the United States is said to be virtually
exhausted for this season.
Rapid upturns were witnessed IN
late trading. Rumors that France and
Italy had bought 250,0O0 bushels OF
more at seaboard today made options
here leap higher than at any time since
the beginning of the European war and
reach levels that never before had been
equalled since the celebrated attempt
at a world wide squeeze by Joseph
Letter.
Nav wheat. the first speculative de-
livery. went to s1.3S% as against $1.3e
at the finish last night. Among the
purchasers of the May option was the
Rockefeller foundation, which wanted
to make sure of charity supplies for
Belgium and had been unable to get
terms on wheat for spot cash.

10000 FRENCH STARVING.
BeIgians Share Last Crust With Hun

London, Jan. Herbert C.. Hoover.
chairman of the American commission
for relief in Belgium. returned to Lon
don from tour OF inspection OF the
work being done for the commission in
Belbium. In a statement issued this
evening Mr.. Hoover said:
IAN appalling situation has been pre-
sented to the commission with regard
to the French peasantry in the valley
of the Meuse just south OF tho Belgian
frontier, where there are ten thousand
persons absolutely without food. Our
investigation showed that q large num-
Der of deaths already had occurred
| there from starvation.
Despite the shortness Of the rations
| II; Belgium onr Belgian colleagues
agreed that We must share the last
crust with these people. We, therefore
| sent them food out OF our limited Bel
gian stores"
The report closes as follows:
Despite the volume OF food whicn
has been placed Mt our disposal. we car
provision only until Feb. Is. Great ms
has been the generosity OF the Ameri-
can people. ft In we'll to bear in mind
| that II we fail after that date the world
will be faced bl the greatest tragedy II
has yet witnessed in tho possible ex,
tinction of an entire nation. Strenuous
as the efforts that we. our ccuntry.naa
and country women. havc made, they
can not for one moment be relaxed u

New York. Subway Panic Remain IN
Hospitals-No Additional Deaths Ex-
pected.
New York, Jan. 7.-Seventy- seven
victims of Yesterdays subway accident
were still in the hospitals today re-
covering from their injuries. Most OF
them were men; some were women who
were mauled in the stampede for the
street. Many were suffering from
bruises and cuts. They were the ones
who had Jared worst In the panic.
None is expected to die.
The death list Of what was first be-
lieved to be great disaster remained
at one. How many persons were car
ried unconscious from the smoke filled
tube to the street probably never VIII
be definitely established, as some OF
the victims did not go to the hospitals
and the names were not recordeo.
There were more than 700 men ana
women wedged into the cars, and es-
Inmates Of the injured exceed 200.
Traffic on all lines, halted for hours,
was resumed to some extent last night,
and the service was normal at the rush
hours today.
In the aftermath Of the accident the
machinery Of investigation was set IN
motion. Eight Investigations. under
the officers of the state, city and trans
fer officials were under way today.

No word has been received here OF
the reported action of the German
cruiser Karlsruhe in making a base of
supply at Mole ST. Nicholas. on the ex-
treme western end of the island. The
place is cut off from telegraphic or

French Commission Says
Germans Officers Were
Guilty Of Crue1t;es

Paris, Jan. THE commission
appointed on Sept. 23 to inquire
into accusations that German Of
ficers had acted "savagely and in
humanity" against French civilians
and soldiers says In its report.
made public today by the cabinet:
I'VE must conclude that there
never has been a war between
civilized nations of so savage char
acter as is wagcd on our soil by
our implacable adversary. Pillage.
ravishing, burning, murder are or
dinary practices Of our enemy, and
facts collected In many cases prove
that the German claim that kill
ing of civilians are due to the firing
Of the population, are unfounded.
I'VE found proof OF the existence
in the German army not only OF a
systematic plan for burning viii
lagos, but elaborate material for
this purpose, including torches,
grenades, fuses oil strayers, sticks
of inflammable material and sacks
of tablets composed of very in
fammable compressed powder"
The commission has distin-
quished between fires caused by
bombardments and those said to
have been set by hand when no
fighting was In progress. 1t was
stated that the purpose was to in
timidate citizens.
"Ravishing of women and girls
was so frequent that the number
of cases established was only
small part of those which might
have been investigated"
The cabinet has been withhold
ing the report Of the commission
because it is said 1t did not desire
further to excite public feeling. 1t
was only on the demand Of
Georges Clemenceau, the former
premier and others that the cabi-
net decided to make public the re-
port.
The conclusions of the committee
form about twenty newspaper col
umns. They reviews incidents
which it is said were established
under oath of witnesses examined
under the usual form OF judicial
procedure.

WHAT MERCER SAID.
Paragraph Of Pastoral Letter Which
Aroused Ire of Germ anv


London, Jan. THE much discussed
paragraphs OF the pastoral letter Of
Cardinal Mercier. which the Nether-
lands newspaper Tijd said had been
responsible for his arrest at the handa
OF tho German military authorities In
Belgium. an arrest which the Germans
have catagorically denied, has been
published In pamphlet form. They fol.
low:
Il consider 1t an obligation OF my
charge to define your duties Of con-
science toward the power which has in
vaded our soil and which now occupies
greater part of It. That power iaa
no lawful right. You owe no esteem,
nor attachment, nor obedience. Tho
sole legal power In Belgium Is that
derived from our king. our government.
and the representatives OF the nation.
This aione has the right to the afscc-
tions OF our hearts and to our submis-
sion.
"Of themselves the acts OF these In
occupation are without force; but the
legal authorities ratify those acts which
are justified In tho general interests
and from this ratification alone they
derive all their judicial worth.
The occupied provinces OF Belgium
are not conquered provinces. Belgium
Ia no more German province than
Galicia is a Russian province.
THE greater number our towns havs
been handed over to the enemy: they
must respect the conditions OF their
surrender.
From the beginning OF military op.

ANTI-ALIEN LAW voIoED
Special Court Of Three Federal Judges
Declares Arizona Statute Unconsti-
tuionaI - In Violation Of Fourteenth
Amendment to Federal Constitution.

San Francisco, Jan. THE Arizona
anti alien employment act. adopted by
the people of the state at the Novem-
ber election. as an initiative measure.
was declared unconstitutional, null and
void here today by special court OF
three federal judges.
In brief the court held that the state
law violated the statute guaranteeing
life, liberty and possession of prop
erty to all alike. whether alien or
not. under the fourteenth amendment
to the federal constitution; that If the
state could forbid employers to employ
more than 20 per cent aliens, 1t could
forbid the employment of l per cent or
even could prevent the employment OF
any aliens. Great Britain and Italy
protested to the state department that
these conditions Of employment vio-
lated the treaty rights OF their citizens

WILSON REJECTS SUFFRAGE.

ton ls State Issue.
Washington, Jan. President Will
son declined yesterday for the sixth
| time since he entered the White House
! to support federal constitutional
amendment for woman suffrage.
When delegation of democratic
women who declared they had helped
to elect him presented the sixth for
NAL petition the president repeated his
previous declaration that he consid-
cred suffrage a state issue.
! Mrs. George A. Armes, president Of
the District Of Columbia branch of the
{, Wilson and Marshall League; Miss AL
berta HILL of New York, and DR.. Fran
ces McGaskin, spokesmen for the del
egation which called at the White
House, reminded the president that the
house would vote on the suffrage
amendment Jan. IL and asked that he
lned his moral support to the move-
ment.
II mmost unaffectedly compli-
mented by this visit that you have paid
me-" the president told the women. II
have been called on several times to
say what my position Is on the very
; important matter that you are so deep
[; ly interested in. I want to say that no.
body can look on the fight you are
| making without great admiration. and
certainly am one of those who admire
the tenacity and the skill and the ad-
dress with which you try to promote
the matter that you are interested In.
"But /, ladies' am tied to a convic-
ton which l have had all my life that
changes Of this sort ought to be
brought abut state by state. II it were
! not matter of female suffrage, II it
were matter of any other thing con-
nected with suffrage, l would hold the
same opinion.
ut is long standing and deeply ma
, tured conviction on my part. and there
fore would be without excuse to my
!. own constitutional principles II lent
(, my support to this very important
| movement for an amendment to the
!, constitution Of the United States.
! "Frankly. do not think that this is
i the wise or the permanent way to
build. I know that you perhaps unan-
imously disagree with me, but you will
not think the less Of me for being per-
fectly frank In the avowal of my own
convictions on that subject, and cer-
! tainly that avowal represents no atti-
tude of antagonism but merely an at
titude Of principle.
u want to say again how much COM

by the confidence that you have so gem

Great Britain's Answer to
Protest of United States
to Be Mild.
WILL COOPERATE
TO AID SHIPPING
Answer to Indicate Use Of Transferred
German Ships in Cotton Trade
Would Be objectionable-No Com
plant Against Sale Of German Ships
Unless Vessels Are Used in Trade
With Hostile Nations.

London, Jan. 1.-THE reply Of Great
Britain to the American note regard
ing interference with American ship
ping, it is said in we'll informed quar-
ters, is wholly conciliatOry, and SHOWS
a. disposition on the part Of England
to do everything reasonable TO prevent
delay in American shipping when loss
of time Is costly to ship owners.
England wishes to do everything IN
its power consistent with the safe
guarding the interests of the allies to
stimulate trade.
Consequently it is declared there is
no disposition on the part OF England
to protest against the purchase OF
German vessels on the part Of Amerl-
ca where the sales are genuine.
The use Of transferred German ships
in the cotton trade with Germany
probably would call forth objections
from the allies, altho cotton IL not
contraband, because the allies would
regard such use as roundabout means
Of escaping the effects of the war. At
any rate objection is not likely to
come until ships are actually trans
ferred, and their prospective use is
clearly indicated.
May Hold Sale Money.
It is probable that the allies will take
the position that the sale money shall
be held until the close Of the war as
guarantee that it will not be of assist.
ance to the belligerents.
German ships purchased by the
American government or its citizens
would inevitably relieve Germans OF
the heavy maintenance and insurance,
undoubted consequences Of war. in the
meaning Of international practice, still
England probably would be willing to
waive objections on this point il the
vessels were to enter trade in no way
beneficial to Germany, Austria or Tur
