CHICAGO BOARD OF TRADE.

Chicago, oct 13.-Prospects of ac-
tive call from Great Britain for wheat
from the United States made prices
here average higher today, although
something of a bearish reaction took
place In the afternoon, owing to a new
submarine scare. The market closed
unsettled, 4 to & c net higher with
December at SISSY and May $1.57 " .
Corn gained x to 12c oats finished
X to nc off, and provisions varying
from 10c decline to a rise of 15c.
Although at first, a result of rains
in Argentina, the wheat market show
ed considerable heaviness. rallies soon
took place, influenced largely by as
sertions that recent big reductions of
the estimated Argentina yield would
not be altered. and that rains were I'M
important The fact that Liverpool
quotations were Unexpectedly firm
tended also to encourage buying here,
and still more so when later in the
session word came from Winnipeg
that the United States and Canada
would be depended upon for immedl-
ate supplies for Great Britain and her
allies, and that purchases elsewhere
would be chiefly for the purpose or
building up reserves. Announcement
of the departure of lightweight
steamers from New York, despite the
Z boat situation, counted also a slim
illus to prices,
1t was the report that a submarine
had been sighted 200 miles east OF
New York, which later became cur
rent that offset strength to a great eN-
tent. Short sellers, however, took ad-
vantage of the resulting dip in prices
and made haste to collect profits. AS
a consequence something of an upturn
was in progress as trading came, to an
end.
Liberal export sales, unfayorable
weather. and the wheat strength com
bined to lift the corn market. oats
was depressed by heavy receipts mere
and at other leading centers. signs
of a good shipping trade tended TO I'LL

by a torpedo or a mine. The question
whether the cruiser had an escort

way towards Fourth street and away
from this building. Manuel Cohen

in speaking of the fire today, said: "Ihe

hughes FRIENDS
believe Speech
IS A PARTY CUE
ProgreSSives, However, Say
1t Failed TO Satisfactorily
Outline Justices Views
CONVENTION IS READY:
old Guard IN CONTROL
BY PERRY ARNOLD.

United Press STAFF Correspondent.
CHICAGO, June 6-Justice Hughes
spoke" last night. Exactly what
did he say was the question which
during the early hours Of today over
shadowed all other topics in the
convention city.
The Hughes graduating day speech
was adjudged by his own volunteer
workers here as the nearest to a
clear cut definition of where the
former Governor stands as il was
possible for a justice of the Su-
preme Court to make. 1t was held
by the Progressives to be entirely
too impalpable OF application TO pre-
sent issues TO give satisfactory
line on the Justices views. The fa-
vorite sons viewed the flag speech as
merely very patriotic talk, which
very properly oughtnt to be con-
strued as a creed OF faith.
The Hughes opposition admitted the
speech gave Frank H. Hitchcock. the
Justices self-appointed agent here,
his first tangible line on where his
candidate stood.
Coincident with the rending of
Hughes veil Of silence came plan
today by the Old Guard for a public
and formal scrapping Of the steam
roller. The organization wants Ia
emphasize its argument since the
first delegates arriyed-that the con-
vention is to be free and untrammeled
in all its action.
The organization is absolutely sure
of its control. II has the votes tc
put over any candidate il chooses
The most radical progressive scarcely
disputed this today. The two thing:
on which the interests of me Ole
Guard centers are the selection Of
candidate who can win and the com
piete restoration Of those parts o
the party machine which were tori
loose four years ago.
The latter consideration is the one
/ OF first importance. Every effort Is
TO be made to erase the tracks made
/ by the 1912 steam-rOller.
Talk of the probable nominee
| buzzes through the hotel lobbies but
it isn't engrossing much of the time
Of the cOnferees in the inner circle.
Here all thought and effort is bent
on salving over old scars, spreading
/ tempting viands before returning
political prodigals and to whiting
/ down 10 a minimum that faction OF
/ the Progressive party which II is
recognized can never be cOaXed back
| into t1e fold.
The lower the point to which this
| non-cOnformist force can be reduced
and hence the smaller the inroad at
