ARE FIGHTING PARATYPHOID

Washington. Sept. 9.-Orders
were issued by the War Department
for the discharge from Federal SER
vice as soon as practicable of twelve
national guard regiments, compris-
ing about $4,000 men, recently with
drawn to their home States from the
Mexican border. and a number of
smaller organizations of some 1900
college and university students.
Orders for the mastering out of
additional units are expected to fol-
low soon. The next regiment to
leave the Federal service will be the
Fourteenth New York Infantry
which will go as soon as its mem
bers are freed from danger of para
typhoid contagion. A number OF
| cases of the disease already have
been reported in that regiment and
it will be held in camp as a matter
of precaution until the infection has
been eradicated. Surgeon-General
Cores SAID a vigorous campaign
against the disease was being waged
and that he expected to see it stamp
ed out promptly. A special paraty-
phoid serum is being manufactured,
and special precautions are taken to
prevent the infection from spread
ing.
There are about 10000 guards
men still in State mobilization
camps, and these probably will be
dispatched to the border very soon
to relieve men now serving there.
Secretary Baker favors giving all
the State troops a chance for the
training to be acquired on the pa
troll line.
The orders were construed by
some officials as a preliminary move
TO the withdrawal of Gen. Pershing's
regulars from Mexico. Officers Of
the General Staff insisted, however,

WHEAT PRICES TOUCH
HIGH LEVEL FOR WEEK

Chicago, Sept. 10.-Wheat prices
touched a new high level for the sea
son last week. various elements COM
bining to make higher prices. The
main bullish influence was the re-
port that Minneapolis millers were
buying heavily of winter wheat at
Southwestern markets because of
the poor quality of the Northwestern
spring wheat. Millers report that it
requires five and one-half bushels of
the light spring wheat to make q
barrel of -four, whereas under ordi-
nary circumstances one bushel less
is enough.
Cash wheat has become scarce
and in Kansas City No. red winter
wheat sold as high as Sl.62 per
bushel. There was quite a rush to
buy cash wheat during 5le w'eekj
and the would-be buyers found the
grain scarce. In fact it was so
scarce that those who hold the grain
can almost name their own prices
for it, as it is now more of a ques-
ton of being able to obtain milling
wheat than of price.
Experts estimate that the wheat
crop was the shortest since 1904 and
is 100000 bushels under re-
quirements. Figuring on last years
carry-over the United States and
Canada combined can export only
275, 200, 900 bushels this year.
