WHEAT MARKET SMASHED
Declaration of War by Rumania Send Prices Down-Thrcatened RaiIroa Stril<c Also Helps.

Chicago, Aug. 2S.-Rumania's de& laration of war smashed the whe4 market. Opening prices showed ia in some cases amounting to 3-4 cent a bushel September delivery, whid closed Saturday at $1.51 3-4, starteI today at $1.35 to $148 1-2. Other oI tiOns also broke wildly.
 General rushes to sell took plac{ Which were increased by the increasel chances of a general railway strike ia the United States.
 Before the drop in prices could bs checked, losses that reached to 81 cents a bushel were shown for tn principal trading month, Decembel which sold as low as 1.45 1a, as con pared with 1.54 at Saturdays finisf
 Notwithstanding that the tremend ous pressure to unload holdings cal ried away for while all other consiC erations, the extraordinary brea proved too tempting for buyers to IT sist and the market showed the COT sequence in rallies of three cents 3 IA cents from the lowest level. Bear traders generally took u view that the action of Rumania wt likely to prove a big factor in forcin a more speedy end of hostilities would at least tend to hurry the opeT ing of the Dardanelles and so r lease huge Russian shipments wheat.

 OVER WAR NEWS
RuInania'S Declaration Sufficient
 to Send Prices Down

Wall Street 10:3O a.. m.-Events oves the weekend, particularly the impending railway labor crisis and Italy's declaration of war upon Ger many found but slight reflection In the stock market at today's opening. Initial prices were irregular @nd mainly lower but declines, except in rails and motors showed no material alteration from last weeks final quo tations. Losses among rails and mot ors were fully offset by gains in shipping shares especially marines while Crucible Steel and Mexican Petroleum constituted the strong specialties. United States Steel was reactionary and secondary prices in dicated professional pressure.
 Values suffered steady depreciation in the first hour, Steel making an eX- treme decline of 1 F points, with to ? for motors, Willys- Overland being the chief element of weakness. Crucible lost all it's gain and an additional l H2 points, with to 3 point reversals in Industrial Alcohol, Colorado Fuel, General Electric, Westinghouse, American Can, Republic Steel and leading equipments. COpperS were comparatively firm, but marines for feited early advances and leading rails were lower by 1 to almost points. Fractional rallies were registered at midday. Bonds were lower.
 Investment issues manifested a bet | ter tendency on the very light offer l ings of the afternoon and marine! | were in further demand. Obscure specialties were irregular, with heav | mess in Sugars.
 Marines continued to dominate tho later dealings, with @ new high zee ord for tho common. Tho clOsins was irregular.

BRITISH SIDESTEP
 REAL PEACE ISSUE
 DECLARE GERMANS
(By Review Leased Wire)

BERLIN. Dec. 23.-(By Wireless)- The Kolnische Volks Zeitung and the Hamburger Fremdenblatt, according to the Overseas News Agency. point out .hat the British premier. Mir. Lloyd Georgc. in his recent speech attempt ed to avoid the question at issue and finds preteXts against the offer of the central powers. They are quoted as saying:
 While the central powers were the first to pronounce the word peace and invite the world to a discussion of the future, Lloyd-George turns his back, re-opens discussions about the past and the causes of the war. Thus Lloyd-George implicitly declines the offer made by the central powers and at the same time wants to hold them responsible in the eyes of the world if the war continues. Lloyd-George would rather pronounce judgment in his own case than accept the idea of a decision of a conference"

ACTOR HAS PECULIAR
 IDEA 0F THE MOVIES
Einar Linden Declares That He Wishes All Life Could
 Be Played on Screen.

Einar Linden. who acts in the Will liam Fox version of Romeo and Ju- liet." which plays for the last time to- day at the Royal. can converse in sev-
 en different languages and has played
 on the stage of more countries than
 that.
 ''I really should say that can speak
 eight languages. says Mir. Linden,
 because l speak the silent tongue of
 the screen. After all. it is the most
 expressive. the most difficult to mas
 ter. and the most beautiful of all. It does not concern itself with some com
 binations Of gutural sounds, or with the harsh noise Of a naStal twang. It it magnificent. this language of the
 screen. which so few know how to speak.
 "I call this eighth tongue the most difficult to learn because it cannot be put into a text book. and drilled into the student by diligent teachers. It must be ingrained in him. Everyone cannot speak pantomime. Only an artist can express his thoughts proper ly without the use of words, and the main trouble with the screen drama of America is that so few artists are working for it.
 If only everyone in the world would throw away words, which only serve to clutter up ideas, Then the human race would approach of higher degree of perfection, emotions and impress sions would be conveyed in mere cast of the face. and people would be much more happy than they are now.
 Someone once said that language is the means of concealing thought. That is one of the truest maXims in the world. It does not take an intel ligent man to prove it true by prac- tice. Even the most vulgar and ignor- ant know how to lie-and show their But if humanity expressed it's thoughts by the same means that artists of the silent drama employ then humanity would have to turn | lctor. or lying would be eradicated."
 NIT. Linden does not believe that this l iream is practicable. He does not be- | ieve that humanity can ever reach | he high level of development which | would be necessary to do away with | spoken language. But considered | merely as an ideal, the thought is en- he thinks.
 Then, too," Mir. Linden says, per laps we should be able to do away | with few thousand photograph rec ,rds. It would be an immense relief O a burdened world"

Milan pulled down 3I2 flies and made twenty-seven as slsts. If his batting was heavier he would be one of the games greatest stars, as his fielding is fiawless
