CHICAGO, Oct. 2G.-Rains in Argentina gave
an advantage today to the bears in wheat.
Although the consequent break in prices was
the signal for renewed buying, which caused
a sharp upturn in the market, the strength
failed to last 1t did not appear that "a gen
eral ending Of the drouth had taken place In
Argentina hut the fact that some moisture
had been supplied seemed TO diminish greatly
the speculative buying power in the pit. open
ing prices which ranged from the same as YES
and May both at S1.79 TO S1.SO. were fol-
lowed by n little further sag, then a tenn
porary bulge, with a subsequent fresh set
back.
Bear aggressiveness in wheat increased later.
esnecially after word came of big drop IN
rrices at Buenns AyreS. There predictions
that the rainfall would be general throughout
Argentina Just before the close. however, ND
eraI export business was reported, and a QUICK
rally ensued. The finish was unsettled at
the same MS Yesterdays latest figures TO 12c
higher. with December S1.S0la to $1S02i and
Nav 81 sou to Sl.Sl@4.
Germ weakened with wheat. The movement
Of new corn from first hands acted also as a
hear factor. After opening unchanged 10 lie
lower the market showed canacity 10 recover,
hut not relatively so much wheat.
Fine weather and enlarged country offerlhgs
prevented corn from making as good late
upturn as wheat. The close was nervous at

were governed chiefly 10y the action of other

MAY LOSE COMMANDS
Three Vermont Troop Lieutenants Said
to Be in Danger.

Eagle Pass, Tex, Aug. l4.--Three lieu
tenants of the lst Vermont may lose
their official heads before many days of
the next week are over.
Col. Reeves requested the governor and
adjutant general of the state to have a
board meet to test the efficiency of these
three officers. The colonels request has
been acted upon, and the efficiency board
held its first session this morning. The
board is composed of Lieut.. Col. Fred b.
Thomas, president; Maj w. n. Cooley
and Capt. H. NJ. Howe, recorder.
In his communica tion to the major and
the adjutant, Col. Reeves said that he
felt that inefficient men should not clog
the commands offices and thus keep out
men who were perfectly efficient and hon
estly entitled to commands. 1t is under
stood that both the governor and the ad
jutant general commended his attitude.
In some states the militia organizations
have become social bodies or bodies for
the furthering of political advantages.
Col. Reeves wants none of that in his
regiment. The board is the first of its
kind to meet on the border.

strength, succeeding in checking the cars
