Grain and Produce.

CHICAGO. March 1o.-;Assertions
that the bearish showing Of the gov
ernment crop report has been more
than discounted by persistent selling
for weeks past led today to higher
prises for wheat. The market, al
though unsettled at the close, was he

Notwithstanding that on account Of
the government figures on farm re;
serves the wheat market opened az
q decline, prices quickly began TO take
q decided upward swing. Short SELL
ers, who were attempting to realize
profits, found themselves confronted
soon with the fact that the pit was
bare OF offers. The result was tnat
before. the advance could be halted
quotations ran up 2%c from the low
ponit which had been touched at the
start.
Corn ductuated mainly In accord
with changes in the price Of wheat.
There was some scattered liquotadon
BY longs early; but the market alb
sorbed these offerings and rallied ful-
" IL cents from the bottom prices.
The upturnf In wheat was some help
to corn, but there was considerable
strength in the latter grain because
OF the sharp advance in hogs.
Oats refused to follow the strength
displayed by wheat and corn because
OF the big surplus in the hands Of
farmers OF the United States as well
as Of aCnada. Cash sales were 1SO,'
900 bushels.
Commission houses bought freely Of
hog products and there were steady
advances for the day. Shorts were the
leading buyers. Hogs we're at the
highest point since June 1. 1910. The
cash trade was active and largely on
foreign account for sailed meats.

HAYNES ON TRIAL
 FOR KILLING WIFE
Alleged Murderer DispIaycs No Con- cern While Court Is Selecting Jury
 Son Bursts Into Tears.

Bridgeport, Feb. 24-Jason S.. Haines, of Trumbull, was placed on trial in the criminal superior court be- fore Judge James Webb, of New Hav- en, charged with murder in the first degree. The crime was committed on September 27, 1915, at the home of the accused. His wife was shot to death.
 The morning session was devoted to empanelling a jury. All Fairfield ju- TOTS were excused by the court. Per- emptory challenges were frequent up- on both sides. At noon time only four jurors had been chosen from d panel Of 35. and IT were left. Haines is defended by Attorneys Jacob B. Klein and Robert E. DeForrest of Bridgeport. States Attorney Homer S. Cummings is conducting the pros ecution.
 Haines, during the prelminaries, displayed no apparent concern and hardly moved during the course of an hour. His two sons. Jason, Jr., and William. were interested spectators in a we'll filled court room. William. the youngest son, burst into tears as his father was brought into the court room, and sobbed throughout the morning session.

WIRELESS OPERATOR
 UNDER INDICTMENT
Stamford Man Alleged to Have Con- ducted Station Without PermiS-
 sion From the Government.

New Haven, Feb. 24.--William T. Schofield Stamford. a telegraph oper- ator at the Grand Central Terminal in New York, was indicted by the federal grand jury here today under the penal code which relates to the operation of wireless telegraph sta tion without governmental auth ority under the act of 1912. The allega-. tion is that Schofield has been Oper- ating a radio station at Stamford. His indictment is the first to be brought in the federal court of this jurisdiction. Schofield's case will be taken up at next term of court.
 In connection with the court case it has been learned that Henry Gaw-. Ter, United States radio inspector, has been here for two days locating radio outfits, and he has found four stations which have not been licensed. The law was passed after the Titanic dis aster because amateur operators with outfits caused interference with the naval station at Newport which was trying to get information from the Carpathia about the wreck.

PATHETIC FEATURE 0F
 THE END OF THE L-l9
Commander Facing Death, Writes to Parents, Wife,
 
 and Little Son.

London. Feb 24 11:40 a. m.-A bottle has been picked up from the sea containing last messages from the commander of Zeppelin Lis, which was wrecked in the North Sea, and addressed to the commander parents, wife and little son. The last of the message stated that the airshlp had dropped and the crew was drown ing, says a Reuter- despatch from Copenhagen.
 The yacht Stella picked up the bottle containing the messages from Commander Uhle near Gothenburg. There were four of the letters, two addressed to the parents of the Zeppelin commander and one each to his wife and child. The letters were written at successive periods. The third states that the airship was then one hundred metres above the water that the motors had failed to act, and that all were expecting at any moment to drop. The fourth letter st ates that the airship had dropped and the crew was drowning.
 The L-1e was wrecked in the North Sea shortly after the Zeppelin raid over England on January 31. It is believed to have been one of the ZcppeIins which took part in the raid having been damaged either by the British anti-aircraft guns or by Dutch coast defense guns which fired on a dirigible that flew over Dutch territory at a low altitude
 The captain of the British trawler King stephen reported he had en- countered the L-19 in a sinking con- dition in the North Sea, but did not attempt to rescue the Germans, as they outnum bered his crew.

ANS0NIA STRIKERS ON
 PARADE CHEER MAYOR
Applause Also for Prosecutor Who Threatened Agita-
 tors Arrest.

Ansonia, Feb. 24--The mills of the American Brass company were not reopened today and a condition which might have brought on trouble did not exist. It was stated yesterday that many of the skilled workers who 2.5OO striking laborers 8 week ago to- day would try to get into the mills to " orl1 as they were tired of enforced idleness, and the strikers to meet this posted pickets in every direction.
 No one attempted to go to work to-
 day but the strikers to an estimated
 number of 1,200 paraded the city's
 streets for an hour. The crowd was in good humor In the vanguard were police officers in street clothes Joseph Grohal who has been coun- sallor for the strikers was in the front rank but he did not act as
 lcad der The strikers stopped fre-
 qUently to cheer prominent citizens, once giving a hearty ovation to Prose- cutting Attorney McOrmond who issued warrants against Joseph Tttor and Miss Eliza abeth Gurley Flynn to be served in event either at t. mpted to lead street demonstra- tIcns. The strikers went to the Coe Brass plant, the Farrell Foundry, the Ansonia company, and then retraced their steps to the west side of the city ard dispersed. The best of order pre- v& lied and after the parade there was no congestion of strikers on the street. The strikers cheered the mayor.
 It is said that each factory has a, of guards inside, the total T' mber brought in being about eighty.
 During the march of the strikers a stop was made in front of the main office of the American Brass Go. Here some of the men wanted to hold a but Grohol jumped. up on a brewery wagon and made a speech in several languages urging the men to keep quiet. and the column moved on. Mayor Schumacher had been notified of the parade and he hurried after the crowd. In the upper end of the town he made a short speech cOun- selling the men not to act in a way which later they might regret.

FLEET TO DOMINATE
 PACIFIC, BADGER URGES
Panama Canal Slides Make Impossible Quick Passage
 of Warships.

Washington, Feb. 24.-Rear Ad- fore the house naval committee in ex-
 ecutive session today to disclose the international consideratio which prompted the navy general board last year to change it's policy and declare for United States navy to equal the strongest af1oar not later than 1925. He was also to discuss the time re- quired to get the American fleet ready for action against a first class naval power.
 The discussion of the boards views or dangers that may confront the na- tlon was brought behind closed doors at the request of Admiral Badger yesterday when his exa imitation in open session was concluded Repre- sentative Stephens of California, asked if the board, in altering it's time-honored policy, did not have in mind the possibility that the country might have to face slmultaneousiv foes in the Pacific and Atlantic.
 Admiral Badger refused to discuss the subject in detail in open session. He declared, however, that the only sure protection for the Pacific coast was fleet capable of dominating the Pacific ocean. He said that earth slides in the panama canal made inn possible for at least another year the expeditions passage of fleets from one ocean to the other. He deferred fur the discussion of the canal situation to the closed session.
 While the committee was e.lamin- ing Admiral Badger the senate and house military committees were at work on the details of the army part of national defence legislation.

This was announced this afternoon by Mayor Quigley, fol- lowing a conference with MT. Babcock, after which the latter asked until to- morrow to announce his decision on the matter.
 The safety board possibility was in terviewed this afternoon and he gave out the following statement: Il con- ferred with Mayor Qufgley this morn ing regarding the appointment as member of the board of public safety. In the discussion l told the mayor Just where I stood regarding my accept ence of the office, and if did it would beAwith the provision that 1 would act as chairman. I also informed him that if would not be with political views that the board would be con- di1cted by me, as I am opposed to poIitics in the running of the police and fir, departments. l also told him thatT would not get up in the middle of the night to run to fires, as l be-
 
 Iiese that the heads of the hre com panies are capable of looking after these matters in a more efhclent man ner than the board of pupHc Salely. have been greatly interested lcf many years in both of these depart ments, and if I accept the place 1t will mean that the members of the police and fire department will re- ceive fair play if they devote them selves to their duties as is expected.

 A request from MT. Babcock was that A. E. Magnen remain as clerk
