CHICAGO, Dec. G. Huge export sales carried the wheat market sharp ly upgrade today. Prices although unsettled at the close. were 234 to 4R net higher, with May al s1.S07s to S1S1A and July at 1.5034. Corn gained 2ik to 2A, oats 14 to IS and provisions 21a to 35c.
 Purchases of wheat for Europe to- day were on such a big scale that the total amount taken this week to go as soon as possible across the Atlantic was swollen to 6,00O,000 bushels. The rush to the buying side of the market began as soon as the board opened and notwithstanding that Dutch Greek and Belgian orders were said to be about filled, owing to demand from England and difficulty of i'm ports from Australia and India.
 Increased marine war risk insur ance and an erronious report that ar American steamer had been sunk lead at one time to a selling drive in the wheat pit.
 In corn, the scantiness of rural of ferings tended to bring about an ad vance which was given further impet us by a forecast of rough weather.

NEW YORK, Dec. 6.-RelaXation Of money rates prompted fresh specula- tive ventures today. although the movement of stocks was hardly regu- lar or uniform, some shares refecting steady pressure The minimum rate for call loans was seven percent with an abundance Of offerings later at five and a final rate of three percent.
 The easing of of money was as- cribed to another heavy inflow from Canada, a total of $17,OOO.O0O being received here and in Philadelphia from that source. Further stabiliza- ton was afforded by the large amount of Russian gold recently consigned to local bankers and the induced de mands from the interior. insuring a favorable bank return at the close of the current week.
 Price movements were often cOnfus- ing, cheap rails moving to higher lev els, while standard shares of that group were either hesitant or lower.

Two OF the bandits who raid
ed Columbus paid the death
penalty in Deming Friday and
it is really hoped that the
other five who we're convicted
will be given the same penalty.
The sob squad will probably
put up a bigger howl than ever
now, but this should not inter.
fere with justice in the least.
The men were given a fair trial
and we're duly sentenced and
nothing should interfere. The
basis of their fight for clemency
is the ignorance Of the convict
ed men. Is there any excuse
in law for ignorance? No, and
if the guilty ones we're Amer.
cans instead of Mexicans they
probably would never have
been given a trial, but would
have been swung to the first

cuted the cases.

been an employee of the club and
was working there at the time

have been sold. Bert Higgins,
a member OF the police force,
stated that he was inside the
club rooms and that someone
came up to the door and dropped
$500 through a slot in the door
into a cigar box, He testified
that James Green took the mon
ey out Of the box, and someone
told the party on the outside to
go around To- the back door
Higgins went outside and saw
a man leaving the back door
whom he overlook and took a
quart bottle of whiskey away
from him The man was Sergt.
Baxter, who testified that he had
gone up to the door, pushed his
money through and went around
to the back door and some one
handed him the whiskev. He
also stated that he pushed a note
through the door with the money
which had been written by Cor
poral Wilson. The note was to
the effect that the bearer, Serg't
Baxter, who was not a member

that while a conviction had to be-
made upon circumstantial eyI
dence, there cou'd be no doubt
that he was guilty.

the sum of 81 600 to await the
action of the grand jury.
Joe Brady and L. b. Johnson
were also tried on the same
charge. They were both inside

RY-Product Coke Oven.

The iron industry of this country
has been adopting the by-product cox
ing process ut a marvellous rate. There
are practically no by-product coke
plants in the United States, which do
not recover ammonia, tar and light oil
(crude benzoD.
In the vast majority of the plants
also surplus gas is recovered and util-
lied either at the plant itself or by
distribution to outside consumers.
There are possibly two or three very
small by-product coke plants ut which
tar and ammonia are not recovered for
disposal to the outside markets, but
these would certainly represent con-
siderably less than l per cent of the
total by-product coking capacity of
the country that is not now equipped
with benzol-recovery plants, and the
by-product coking plants now under
construction have either contracted for
benzol-recovery equipment or indicated
a strong probability that such provi-
sion will be made.-Metallurgi and

FIND VOLCANO in MINDANA0
Recent Eruption Was Apparent, Lieu
tenant DonnelIy Says of the
Discovery.

Mindanao has new-volcano, accord
ing to the Mindanao Herald. Lieuten-
ant Donnelly. while on hike into the
interior of Lanao province, discovered
an active volcano in the Piagayungan
range of mountains, which heretofore
was net known to exist. Lieutenant
DonHehy says of his discovery in the
following report:
"June 8, 1916, the undersigned, in
command of combined detachment
Of the First CotabatO company, and
tho First General Service company, on
reconnaissance patrol from Kapaad
northwest through the Plagayungan
mosntain range. came in sight of an
active volcano which from all indica-
tions had recently erupted discharge
OF volcanic ash and either smoke or
flame.
prom the fact that foliage in the
forest on the mountain sides three
miles to the southeast had been
scorehed as though by flame, hot
smoke sr toxic gas, and that ground
had been partially destroyed, leaving
the stalks intact and the scorched
leaves retaining their form, it was
thought that the eruption had been
recent. At all events, so recent that
the wind had not blown away nor de-
strsyed the fragile remnants of the
burned foliage"
