SAFE CONDUCT ASSURED
Papers for Ambassador Dumba to
Return to Vienna Delivered
by British Envoy.

Sir Cecil Spring Rice, the British am
bassador. personally delivered to Act
ing Secretary Polk at the State Depart
ment today a safe conduct under which
DR.. Constantin Dumba, the Austrian
ambassador, will return to Vienna. The
department asked for the safe conduct
some days ago, when DR.. Dumba tele-
graphed from the summer embassy at
Lenox, Mass, that he had been ordered
home and requested that arrange
ments for his safe passage be made.
Ambassador Penfield having pre-
viously Informed the department that
DR.. Dumba's withdrawal was final the
message was construed to mean that
the Austro- Hungarian ambassador
here had been recalled as requested by
President Wilson as being no longer
persona grata in Washington. The. de-
partment already had assurances from
the British and French governments
that Nine. Dumba would not be inter-
fered with on her homeward trip DR..
Dumba expects to sail from New York

GAIN Of Is MILES
CLAIMED BY Gar

PETROGRAD, September 30.-Terri-
torial gains Of considerable extent by the
Russians are indicated by the latest in
formation received at the war office. The
Germans have been pushed back from the
terminal station at Glubokoi, on the
Svientsyanvo- Glubokoi railway to a point
midway to the Vilna-Dvinsk railway. The
position thus reached is the station of
Postawy. representing a gain of twenty
five miles.
In the district west and south of Molo-
dechno the Germans have been forced
back eight miles across the Lida -Molo-
dechno railway, beyond the village Of
Krewo.
Intense Battles Raging.
At no part of the northern lines have
German gains been announced, al
though battles of great intensity are
beng Fought on the line from Koziany,
| on the Disna river, to Krivo, a distance
OF sixty miles in straight line On
account of bend. to include the viliya
line to Smorgon, the actual extent of
| this front Is eighty miles,
The Germans have concentrated
strong forces along this line. including
considerable bodies of troops drawn
from the Pripet region.
South of the Pripet the Germans
have won a local success at Ciartorisk,
twenty miles west of the railway juno
tion at Sarny. They appear to have
gained control of the Styr to a point
south of Lutsk, which lately has been
the scene of heavy fighting and now
appears to be in the hands of the Ger
| mans.
A strong effort also is being made by
the Germans in the region of Nowo
Alexiniec, fifteen miles north of Tarno-
pol The Russian authorities believe
this movement represents an attempt
to reach the great highway between
Kremenetz and Ostrog. Further south
on the Stripa, west of Tarnopol, the
Russians have had the best of the
fighting.

BIG JUMP IN WHEAT.
Rise Sleeper Than at Any Time Since
the War Began.

CHICAGO. September 30.-Sensa-
tionsl advances took place just before
the close of trading today in the Sep
tember delivery of wheat. Month-end
covering by shorts ran quotations up
to s1-15A bushel. as against s1.03%
last night. a jump of rs cents.
Notwithstanding that the rise was
sleeper than has been witnessed at any
time since the beginning of the Euro
pean war. excitement was not cor
respondingly great. Transactions were
mostly in small lots of belated Sep
tember shorts. and the squeeze did not
affect the market as whole.

PRICES TEND TO HARDEN
ON LIVERPOOL REPORTS
Wheat Bulls Also Helped by Asser-
tions Northwest Farmers Are stor-
ing Grain for Higher Prices.

CHICAGO, September 3O.-Wheat
tended to harden in price today on
account of Liverpool reports of an in
sistent demand from millers and be-
cause of enlarged estimates of Euro
pean requirements. The bulls here
were also Influenced by assertions that
farmers in the Dakotas and Minnesota
were storing every bushel possible and
would hold for higher prices. On the
other hand, receipts in the northwest
continued to be on a liberal scale. :.
The opening. which varied from y
947s and May at 97haA to 97%. was
followed by moderate general gains,
although Interrupted by temporary
setback.
Little Firmness for Corn.
Corn developed a little firmness In
sympathy with wheat. Warmer tenn
peratures, however, prevented any ag-
gressive buying. After opening u
lower to shade advance the market
rose above last nights level all
around.
Oats were governed by the action OF
corn. Price changes, though, proved
narrow.
Packers buying steadied provisions
Scattered liquidation was noticeable In
nearby deliveries.
Reports that Illinois farm stocks were
light cut considerable figures against the
bears. A sharp advance of 117s in the
September option resulted from covering
by some shorts who had waited till al.
most the very last minute, before at
tempting to settle on contracts about to
expire. Other months were not affected
The wheat market closed unsettled al
the same as last night, to 11ss higher
with September at 115K. December al
95A and May at 97Ka97M.
Subsequently talk of an export demand
led to a further upturn for corn. The
close was firm at " to -3A net advance,
with the latter gain in the September
option.
