BEARISH FORCES
CONTROL WHEAT

CHICAGO, No. 17.-Bearish foreign
advices had depressing effect today
on the wheat market here. Especial
notice was taken Of announcements
that a large fleet had been provided BY
the British government to move the
Australian crop and that liberal pur-
chases In. Australia had been author
ixed.
Reports Of weakness in the Roserio
market counted noticeably also against
the bulls.
Opening price which ranged y to ~
down with Dec. $1.s4A to $1.S4h and
May at $1.80x to $1.90k were follow
ed something of rally, but later by
fresh decline considerably lower than
the day before.
Corn gave way with wheat. At first,
the corn market had an upward slant
owing to adverse crop reports from
Argentine. After opening &c OF to
Nc advance, prices shardened all
around, but soon underwent decided
sag.
Trade in oats was mainly Of . local
character. Quotations were chiefly
governed by the action Of corn.
Provisions averaged higher IN re.
Spouse to q rise in the value OF hogs.
Offerings were light.

Al WHITE RETURNS;
NO TRIAL IS HELD

AL White, a young Richmond man.
student at the high school, who was
recently arrested on a desertion
charge filed by the captain Of the Ea,
ton company Of the Ohio National
Guard, went to Columbus, O., yester-
day in order to find out the status OF
his case and was informed that the
Guard authorities there knew nothing
about it and advised him to go to Ell
Paso, Tex, and take the matter up
with the colonel Of his regiment.
White returned to Richmond. Prose
cutor Keller says that he believes the
charge preferred against White is un-
founded. The boy while a minor en-
listed in the Ohio Guard and, Keller
says, the Guard officers knew he was
a minor. He refused to take the fed
eral oath and returned to Richmond.

Drug Prices
Set Records
for Country
Richmond and indianapolis
Become Cut Rate Pace
Makers for United States.

Passing Detroit and Cincinnati, two
drug centers which held records for
low prices, Richmond has become the
price making market Of the country,
sharing the distinction with one other
city, indianapolis. Prices are lower
here than they have ever been since
cut rates were lnaugurated by drug
stores, according to Glenn Thistle.
thwaite, owner Of five stores In Rich
mond.
Richmond became the pace maker in
drug prices through Mr.. Thistle
thwaite's purchase Of one Of the big
gest drug stores in Indianapolis recent
". The store was the first to inaug-
urate cut prices in Indiana and its
purchase was partly matter Of senti-
ment. Shortly after his student days,
Mr. Thistlethwaite worked for the own
er and later became the first cut rate
druggist in Richmond.
Prices Higher Before War.
1--WE are actually selling drugs for
less here today" said Mr.. Thistle
thwaite. than four years ago. before
the war sent the prices Of drugs to
unheard Of heights"
In Cincinnati where there formerly
was an antagonfstfc effort on the part
of two big drug companies to cut
prices to the lowest notch, there has
been an increase In prices taking
place, while the contrary has been
true here, Mr.. Thistlethwaite said.
Prices Of drugs have been kept
down here because Richmond Is really
getting the benefit Of the low prices of
our Indianapolis store. which has been
the pace maker for other Indianapolis
drug stores for twenty years. We
have the same price scale here. But
the chief reason is our ability to buy
in quantities.
Wholesale to Customers.
I'VE are selling drugs at the same
prices most druggists pay their job
bers for them. We buy direct from the
manufacturer and sell at wholesale
prices. As an example, the jobber
charges the retailer 50 dozen or Is
cents each for the 81 size Of Horlicks
Matted Milk. We sell it at Is cents.
These prices are for standard prep
arations. az the so cent Caldwells
Syrup of Pepsin, which We sell at "a
cents, the rs cent Groves Bromo
Quinine Tablets at IT cents, Is cent
Listerine at II cents or three bottles
for SO cents, the same charge as for
Is cent Sal Hepatica.
Even toilet preparations. 60-cent
Pebeco tooth paste at "a cents, $1.25
Azurea and LaTrefle powder at "a
cents and 50-cent Dier-Kiss face pow
der at 43 cents, are priced on the same
scale. Standard medicines, which sell
at dollar, usually sell at 81 cents. as
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
Despite the heavy inroads automo-
bile tire manufacturers have made on
the rubber supply, we have been able
to get rubber goods at remarkably low
prices and we are selling q 81 fount-
ain syringe at n cents and $3.50
hot water bottoe at 50 cents. Adv.

GERMANY TO PAY FOR SINKING
OF MARINA IF SHOWN TO
BE AT FAULT

Washington, Dec. 1. - Germany
stands ready to pay indemnity for
American lives lost in the torpedOing
Of the steamer Marina, to offer, an
apology for the incident and to pun
ish the submarine commander re-
spOnsible, if it develops that the YES
sci was sunk unjUstly.
This offer was double conveyed to
the state department today in Ger
many's formal reply to American in
quiries on the Marina sinking and
during a confidential visit between
Sec'y of State Lansing and Ambas-
sadOr Won Bernstorff.
Germany's answer said that he in
formation about the destruction of
the vessel with loss of six Americans
was incomplete and inconclusive and
the ambassador requested that this
government give Germany any fur
Their facts as to the case.
Everything about the German re-
ply and the Bernstorff visit pointed
to an admission.
Germany's contention in the Mar
ina case is that the Marina had been
engaged as a horse transport in the
British admiralty service, though evil
IDENTIFY the admiralty character had
been removed before the torpedOing.
- Germany contends that her pre-
vious admiralty service tended to pal-
late, at least, the sinking.
