SEATTLE DECIDING
VICE ISSUE TODAY

SEATTLE, March 7.-Whether
Seattle shall have another two
year period of vice protection and
police corruption or whether the
long standing vice issue shall be
wiped out, are the questions
which Seattle voters are deci l.
ing today.
The issue is to be settled IN
the choice for mayor of one of
two men-Hi Gill and Austin T..
Griffith-after campaign of
bitterness and personal vitupera-
ton such as has seldom been
equalled even in Seattle.
Gill has a big lead which the
voters gave him at the primaries,
when he raked in IS per cent
of all the votes cast for mayor.
His supporters are confident of
victory.
Lost His Temper.
Yet there have been some
stareling FIXTURES of the later
days of the campaign which may
serve to knock down this lead
and even give Griffiths the lead.
Mayor Gill, who had promised
two years gefore that, if elected,
he would not seek another term,
made the greatest blunder of his
campaign after the primaries,
when in a speech he attacked aud
insulted Mrs. Griffiths, the wife
of his opponent.
He lost his temper. He burst
out in a TRADE against Grifflths,
declaring his opponent had mar
ried million and had delegated

was consigned to local dealers. The

WHEAT AGAIN ON
UPWARD MOVE
Another Sensational Advance is Re-
corded in Market as Result of
Damaged Crop RumOrs.

Chicago, Aug. 1.-THE wheat mar
ket made another sensational advance
on crop damage reports today. De-
cember options 40 minutes before the
close had advanced an extra cents,
from 1873 to 1.46 per bushel Septem-
Der, less active, rose from 1.35, where
it sold early, to 1.42.
The advance began with the reitera-
ton of a we'll known expert that the
latest reports showed that the recent
government report, which sent prices
up II cents a few days ago, had not
exaggerated crop damage. On top Of
this came a statement by the Manitoba
(Canada) minister of agriculture that
the damage was worse than had been
previously estimated
Bernard Snow, an expert, whose
name had been mentioned in connec-
ton with a possible federal investiga-
ton of the rise in prices, said:
"Today's market is a full answer to
to any questions which may have
arisen in the minds of federal officials
as to whether there has been any
thing artificial in the actions of the
grain market"
