Says Newest Is Gravest Crisis.
Senator Sterling Of South Dakota
spoke ON his resolution to declare the
senate's concern at the recent German
naval order to sink all armed mer-
chant ships. He said the issue brought
the United States to its "gravest inter-
national crisis"
Instead of kneeling to the demands
of the German admiralty" said he,
their very mention should meet with
vigorous protest. Instead of denying
this old right of the seas we should
now of all times vie with her or any
other nation in seeking to uphold it.
1t is possible some danger will be in
Cured, but l do not much fear dangers
will be increased beyond what they are
at present But l do know, that let a
horror occur in which American lives
are involved and this administration
and the world will know that there is a
real America. not supine. apathetic and
hesitating, but strong, militant, if need
be, and ready to respond to those noble
Impulses of liberty and humanity
which lave been our heritage from the
beginning
Discussing the right Of Great Britain
to arm her merchant feet for defense
purposes, Senator Sterling said:
"Of all people it i'll becomes us to
deny Great Britain that right now or
to spend one hour in diplomatic bag
Cling to secure her remuneration of it,
Senator Sterling also said that it lis
not a remote inference that the present
attitude of the German admiralty in
regard to the right to attack and de.
stroy armed merchantmen without
warning was encouraged if not invited
by the memorandum of our state de.
partment TO the entente powers"

LIVERPOOL WORD
HAS GOOD EFFECT
Wheat Registers an Advance in Sym.
pathy With Reports of Higher
Prices Abroad.

Chicago. Feb. 18-Sympathy with
higher prices at Liverpool brought
about an advance today in the wheat
market here. it being reported that Of
ferings in Great Britain were small
and reserves dangerously low. After
opening shade off TO ~ up, the mar
ket receded little but then rose all
around to well above yesterdays fin
ish. Initial prices for May were 129
to 12914 and for July 1.225s to 1924.
On liberal export sales, prices clos
ed firm, MOL to 1A@1ssc net higher,
with May at 1925 and July at 1885
OLA.
Corn hardened with wheat. At first,
however, the market was easy owing
to favorable weather. The opening,
which ranged from a shade to 1s@Ac
lower, was followed by a moderate up
turn.
Lower quotations were touched
later and the dip was only Of tran
sient sort. The close was unsettled
at A@12sc net advance.
Oats had the same action as corn.
Trade was mainly of local character.
Some strength developed in provi-
sions despite lower prices on hogs.
There seemed to be an absence Of any
pressure on the selling side.

MODERN DINING CARS.
Where Big Things Are Done In . Very
Limited Space.

Limited Space.
The modern dining car Is a concrete
example Of doing big things in little
space The passenger who eats his
meals three times a day, with every
thing spick and span and as well cook
ed as he could hope to find at any ho
tel ION land" probably does not give
q great deal Of thought to the system
which makes dining on train pos
sible.
The average dining car Is about six.
ty-fve or seventy feet long. The kitch.
en- and pantry occupy about one-eightb
Of this space. The rest is taken up
with the stewards sideboard and the
dining room. In the latter there are
on an average Eve or six tables seat
ing four people OH one side Of the
car and about six tables seating two
people along the opposite side, with
an aisle between.
In the narrow space reserved for
the kitchen and pantry-about two
thirds the width OF the car-must be
found room for the range. the refrig.
orator and the pantry and storage for
linen. glassware and such vegetables as
do not require ice. Three and four
men do the cooking and dishwashing
So narrow is the space leading to the
