Great Northern Accepts

Wheat Drops a Little
In Chicago Market

Chicago, Sept. Heavy selling on
weak cables and ticker reports that
Greece had joined the allies were re-
sponsible for overnight drops of from
1 3-4 cents to Is cents in the wheat
pit today. Cables failed to respond to
the American strength and this caused
selling of general character. Sept. was
down below a low opening "a at 81
so l-3; December down 2 IA at $l.52 1-2
and MAY down l-2 at sl.53 1-2.
Corn had heavy undertone at the
opening. Selling was general and sup
port was poor. September had good
rally on buying by professionals. Sep
tember was up above the opening quar-
ter at SO l-2; December down IA at
10 1-S, and May down 3-S at rs 3.s.
Oats were inclined to lower levels be-
cause of weakness in the other grains

Recent Successes Lead Them
to Change Ideas About
End of War
SUGGEST TERMS THAT
CANNOT BE ACCEPTED
Many Who Want To See Ger
many "Crushed Would
Make Harder Terms

Washington, Sept. THE allies are
discussing among themselves more dras.
tic peace terms than ever before hinted
Here are some of the demands likely
to be made on Germany:
The ceding to England of Heligoland
Naturalization of the Kiel canal.
Demolition of some of the strongest
fortifications on the German borders.
The list of demands was obtained to.
day by the United Press from an of
ficial in close touch with allied senti
ment both in this country and abroad
There are many officials among the al
lied nations whose desire to see Ger,
many absolutely crushed" leads them
to propose even harsher terms than
those listed. In order to break down
the power of centralized Germany, it is
said these men are in favor of offering
lenient peace terms to adjoining states
willing to sever their political connec
tion with the empire.
The main concern of the allies is moi
how long the war will last but how thor
oughly Germany can be conquered, the
United Press informant said A peace
dictated by the allies at Berlin after Q
triumphant march through Germany tt
Vienna was declares not at all iaprob
able.
Heligoland, the great German nava
base in the North sea, sas purchased
by Germany from England some yeari
ago when the latter though it worth
less. Germany, however, has made i
almost an impregnable fortress.

Many Undecided

San Francisco, Sept. If the an
nouncement of President Ripley, of the
Santa Fe railroad that his road would
fight the Adamson eight hour bill ere
ated any excitement in Pacific coast
railroad circles, it was not apparent on
the surface today.
The Southern Pacific has come to
no decision regarding the matter, ac-
eording to William r. Scott, vice pres
ident and general manager Of that
road
"None of us has received any other
text of the Adamson law than that
which appeared in the press, he said

Great Northern Accepts

st. Paul, Mimi, Sept. The Great
Northern will scfupulously obey the
provisions of the Adamson eight hour
bill, IL was announced today. This an
nouncement, coming in the face of the
Santa Fe announcement that it would
obey none of the provisions of the bill,
seemed to substantiate recent rumor
in railroad circles here. This was that
either the Great Northern or the Santa
Fe would be chosen to flagrantly vio-
late the bill, to force government ac-
tion that would bring n test in courts.
The Santa Fe was chosen, it was said,
because of the strength of its legal de-
partment.

New York, Sept. THE biggest
transportation strike in the history OF
New York, which union leaders de-
clared would tie up the subway and
elevated systems is on today.
Employees on the surrace cars of the
New York Railways company also call

overnight, or elambered aboard motor
buses or the slowly moving surface
ears of such lines as were still in op-
Grafton.
The Interborough Rapid Transit com
pany operating the subway and ele-
waited lines claimed that practically all
of their trains left the barns on schel-
ule this morning. Taking advantage
of the release of strikebreakers in var
ious cities by the calling off of the
railroad strike last week, hundreds OF
men were hurried here and were held
in readiness to take the place of reg
ular employees who walked out.
Disorder at several points were re-
ported early today but no one was re-
ported injured Scores of strikers
poured into the Grand Central subway
station and orally or physically per-
suaded ticket choppers or other em-
ployes there to leave their posts.
An elevated train was attacked from
the roofs of tenements at Eight aven-
ne and l5lst street, reports from the
Interoorough asserted. Bricks were
hurled from the roofs but missed their

pocketed and threatened with capture
by the steady advance of the allies.
The thrust that carried the French
lines through the greater part of the
village of Berry En- Santerre and into
the outskirts of Chaulnes yesterday

desperate German resistance. The Ger
mans defended their positions with
great stubbornness ant time and again
counter attacked.
The French advance brought General
Foch' S line still closer to the Chaulnes-
Peronne railway.

bill was reached at O'Clock this after
noon and adjournment of congress some
time tonight seemed certain.
Washington, Sept. 7.-Congrcss ex-
poets to quit work late this evening or
tomorrow after nine months session

The greatest record smashing was in
appropriations The congress Just clos
ed authorized approximately SILL
3s3, ,6S2.64 appropriations for the next
fiscal year and $226,S75,366 in con
tracts. Under the latter head were ap-

legislative, executive and judicial bill;
s., ,287 $50 for rivers and harbors; $5,-
l07 300 carried in the civil sundry act
and $205, ,0S9,416 in the naval act
The total in appropriations and con
tracts authorized according to esti-
mates, brings the grand total up to
81. .947 ,259, ,04s.64.
The final legislative measures put
through were the eight hour bill to
avert the nation wide railroad strike
and the revenue law by which the gov
ernment is to raise $205,000,000 and
which provides for the tariff commits
sion
In this measure is also contained the
provisions by which the president is
given power drastically to retaliate
against the British blacklist and the
British mail seizures. If, in the presi'
dents opinion, foreign government

States is not participating, is shown
to be discriminating against American
shippers, ships of the nation involved
can be seized and the ship captain i'm
prisoned Use of the mails, interstate
express companies and cable, telephone
