lODAY'S MARKET REPORT.

Chicago, March 2e-WHEAT.-Predicti
of heavy shipments from Argentina to
Europe and especially Great Britain had
a weakening effect today on the wheat
market here. There were estimates that
forwardings from Buenos Aires would
average as much five million bushels
weekly, the most part to Liverpool. The
fact that domestic crop reports were gen.
orally favorable tended also to give the
market a downward slant. Opening prices,
which varied from Sc to 11ac lower, were
followed by an additional decline.
Rumors that Turkey had broken with
Germany led to a decided fresh downturn,
but the market rebounded when the news
was not confirmed; The close nevertheless
CORN-Corn suffered from slowness of
cash demand. Moreover, sympathy with
the weakness of wheat counted against the
bulls. After opening &c to nc off the mar

Subsequently, aggressive selling by pit
traders burdened the market great shsSSe
Of the time. The close was weak, 5s@%c
net lower.
OATS-Bearishness of other grain
brought about considerable unloading of
oats. About the only buyers were shorts.
PROVISIONS-Provisio eased off, in
fluenced mainly by the action of the cereal
and hog markets. Trade, however, was
small.

No effort was made to abolish the
board of administration or school text
book commission, created by the for
mer legislature. After aboliShing the
board of irrigation, or rather reducing
the number from three. to one, the
legislature added two members to the
board of managers of the Dodge City

wage commission, to be composed of
three commissioners, q secretary and
q stenographer. The child hygiene
department was created which calls
for two new state employees. In the
state offices and departments seven
new positions were created bringing
the total new statutory jobs to six

RAILROAD NEWS
Attention of Railroad Circles
on Western Rate Hearing.
Hard Fight Made by Roads for
Higher Livestock Rates.
IT is CARRIED AT A LOSS
No Profit in Business Handled
From Range to Market.
Other Items of General Interest
in the Traffic World.

Railroad men in Topeka have CEN
tered their attention on the interstate
commerce commission hearing at Chi
cago where the petition of Al western
railroads for increased freight rates is
being threshed out.
The railroads have contended for
years that there is less profit in ham
ding live stock than in many other
Freight officials declare that more
cars are necessary in handling stock
trains, that the trains must be moved
at greater speed, that damage claims
are more frequent and the cost of
transportation is greater than in other
lines of traffic.
These figures were dealt upon at
length in the testimony of G. f. Spens,
assistant general freight traffic man
ager of the Burlington. at the Chicago
hearing. In his testimony he gave
some figures concerning the cost of
moving live stock to market. In 1914
the Burlington furnished transporta-
ton to 79,484 caretakers of live stock.
the total value of the transportation
being $479,093, or 7.8 per cent of the
earnings on live stock traffic. Dam
age claims paid for injuries to live
stock amounted to S243,951 and dam
ages because of injuries to caretakerS
were paid in the sum of SCOOPS. In
other words, more than 4 per cent of
the total income from the traffic was
paid out in transportation and dam
ages, or a sum equal to $692,072.
Those opposing the railroads ap-
peal for an increase in rates have said
that there is a better chance for them
to prove a case on the live stock rates
than on many other rates where they
desire to increase their revenue.
On few commodities is the revenue
per gross ton or per mile so small as
on live stock. Some of the compari-
sons are as follows, including loaded
and empty mileage:

NINETEEN LEFT TRACK.
Little Damage Done to Freight Train
DeraiIment, However.

According to report received in
Topeka, nineteen cars of an eastbound
Santa Fe freight train left the track
not far from Amarillo, Texas, Tuesday.
Fortunately for the crew, both the
engine and the caboose remained on
the track and this fact prevented any
personal injuries.
Some of the cars were badly dam
aged by the derailment. The track
was blocked for seven hours and dur
ing that time rails were laid around
the most serious part of the wreckage.
The damage will not be heavy as many
OF the cars were empty flats.
