CORN WORTH ITS
 WEIGHT IN GOLD
Associated Press.)

CHICAGO, Oct 23.--It has now been definitely ascertained that general shortage of the wheat and corn crop all over the world is the cause of the phenomenal rise in the prices of those two grains. For re- ports received on the Chicago mar kets from all corners of the globe are to the effect that the crops will fall fully twenty-five per cent short ot those raised last year. Both wheat and corn have now reached a price unheard of since the Civil war. with the exception of the Letter wheat corner" of 1898.
 The receipt of the information re garding the general shortage of wheat throughout the world today caused its price to mount five cents per bushel. December wheat therefore closed on the market here tonight at the phenomenally high price of $l.74 and 5-s. The price of corn at market closing hours was 3l.0l.

Chief of the indictments so far returned is that against Chief of Police Htaley. who is charged with malteasanCe iI office and conspiracy 10 nullity the anti.gambling laws of the State of Illinois.
