 fected Foreign Ports

New York, February 1S.-Dr. c. T. G. Rogers of the division of industrial hy- giene of the state labor board, it was announced tonight will request the fed eral authorities to order the redisinfec- ton of all hides shipped to America from anthrax infected ports of China and South America.
 Dr. Rogers action is based on the fact that Eugene Hiers, a hide handler of this city, is believed to be dying of an- thrax at a hospital here. pr. Rogers be- lieves anthrax is communicated exclu- sively throuh hides and leather.

 FIGHTING IN ARTOIS
 London, February 13.-(Specia1.l ) The Germans are fiercely attacking the French positions in the Artois region, as well as in Champagne. In the lat ter district Berlin reports the capture of front of about 700 yards. while the French admit that the Germans have gained footing in some of their advanced trenches near the Tahure- Somm-Py road.
 In Artois, near Hill 40, which lies to the southwest of vimy the German attacks followed one another in quick succession, there being four during the course of the afternoon. Pushing forward in the face of hail of shells and bullets, the Germans, on their fourth attempt, succeeded in entering one of the French first line trenches, which, however they failed to hold, being almost immediately driven out with considerable losses in dead and wounded, according to Paris.
 Northeast of Soissons a German at tack resulted in the capture of French trench near the Crouy road. but here also they were thrown out leaving their dead on the field.
 On the British end of the lines there have been sapping operations and bonn bardments by both sides.
 ARTILLERY IS RIISY All around Soissons the German ar tillery was busy, preparatory to in- fantry attacks, but the attacks did not eventuate owing to the French use of their guns in curtain-of- fire volleys.

Abandonment of Plan for Continental Army Fans Into Flame Latent Enthu- siasm of Leaders
WORKING ON PLANS TO FEDERALIZE THE
 NATIONAL GUARD
Senate Committee Begins Framing the Bill Today. Pan-American Treaties to Be Features in Senate

Washington, February 13.-Secretary Garrison's resignation last week has had far-reaching results upon Congress, in the opinion of administration leaders. It was apparent that the unexpected development had clarified the legislative atmosphere with regard to two impor- tant issues-national defense and Philip pine independence-and had served to bring Congress and the President closer together
 The secretary's resignation finally sealed the fate of his continental army plan, which chairmen of both House and Senate military committees declared never would have been accepted by Com gress. Work began at once on plan of liberalization of the National Guard to create reserve defensive force for the nation. Latent enthusiasm for pre- ps redness was aroused in scores of in- fIucntial members of both branches who had been opposed to the continental army plan. and had taken only a passive in terest in the defense programme These members have put their shoulders to the wheel and an army reorganization bill probably will be perfected in the near future

WHEAT REACHES new
HIGH RECORD MARK
ON WEEKS TRADING

CHICAGO, Nov. 11.-New high price
records and substantial net gains
were scored by the wheat market in
the week which ended last night. Bull
ish Argentine advices in large export
sales from the U. S. and from Canada
were of much effect in lifting quota
tons till May delivery of wheat climb
ed to S1.95H a bushel.
Highest prices yet this season and
therefore the highest in manv years
were thus reached yesterday chiefly
because frost damage in Argentina
added to the injury already done to
wheat there by drought and locusts
The estimates of the exportable sur
plus in Argentina were cut dowr yes

vious days had also beer heavily re-

by no means agreed that political con-

kind as to the price of wheat.
Corn and oats gained respectively
about &c and 21sc a bushel for the
week. Export call was active for both
cereals, and the Argentine crop situa-
ton as well as the strength of wheat
were bullsh factors.
Stiff advances formed the rule in
provisions, the jumps ranging from 81
to $2.15. Foreign demand with up
turns in the value of cereals were
ascribed as leading causes.
