CHICAGO, Jan. MISUNDERSTANDING
that wheat today at first showed strength
the market later became neaVy on ac-
count of a liberal enlargement of the
United States visible supply totol Prices
closed weak, Ssq34c TO l2sc net lower with

Corn scored gain or is6Ac to NC and
oats of sc to l4q3sc. Provisions finished
at range varying from 2l5 off to ny
advance.
Enlargement of the visible supply total
received emphasis from the fact that the
record at the corresponding time last
year was a decided contrast the 1916
figures having showing a substantial fall
ing off. Absence of any signs of fresh
proceedings from Europe tended further
to discourage the bulls Bearish senti-
no adequate relief had Yet ben given to
freight congestion at the seaboard and
at intermediate terminals
Transient strength i'm wheat during the
tlrst part of the session was due chiefly
TO higher quotations from Liverpool and
TO a decrease in arrivals at Minneapolis
and Duluth. The final abandonment OF
the effort to open the Dardanelles ap-
peared TO have bullish effect. and so did
the Communicating OF supplies in Italy.
As for tho diminished receipts north
west. however, there was more than an
( offset later in reports that Canadian
wheat was coming 10 Minneapolis. one
firm alone having obtained about a hun
dred cars
for the 1915 crop. Talk or a good Euro
peau demand was chiefly responsible.
! The market afterward eased off a good
deal
Oats swayed with corn. Domestic de-
mand was fairly good, and there was ex-
port inquiry.
Provisions had a notable advance. de-
spite the huge supplies OF hogs arriving
here and at other western centers. Big
exports helped the provision market up
ward, but selling by packers caused a
| reaction.

TEACHERS CERTIFICATE is
VALID UNTIL REVOKED

Pierre. S. D., March 22.-Until a
teachers certificate is actually revoked
by a county superintendent, the each
er can continue to draw salary and is
eligible to run for the office of county
superintendent, is the ruling of the at
torney general, IN a situation which
has arisen in the northwestern part of
the state. The state law provides that
a teacher shall attend certain institute
sessions, and the failure to attend such,
without proper excuse from q. county
superintendent, is given as one of the
grounds for revocation of a teachers
certificate.
The case in question is one where a
teacher, originally. holding a valid first
grade certificate, did not attend in
stltute for three years. Her county SUI
p~erlntendent for some reason or other
did not revoke her certificate for such
failure. Now the teacher wishes to
FUN for county superintendent, and the
point is raised that she has not at
tended the institutes. Unless some sat
1sfactory reason could be produced for
such absence, the teacher would be in
position to have her certificate revoked.
The attorney general rules in the case
that mandamus can lie compelling a
county superintendent to revoke the
certificate Of a teacher for neglect Of
this function or refusal to follow it
properly. But until such a revocation
is made the certificate remains intact.
