To Find Honored
Grave for Youth
Killed in Battle

Correspondence Of rhs Associated Prsss.)
London, July 30.-General satisfae-
ton is being expressed over the de-
cision of the admiralty to remove
from its nameless grave the body OF
John Travers Cornwell, the boy hero
Of the battle Of Jutland, to more
suitable burial place.
The decision Is the result OF the dc.
sire that the honor due the lad whom
Admiral Beatty specially mentioned
in his dispatch may be fittingly paid.
Here Is the reference in Admiral
Beatty's report concerning the hero.
who was is years old:
BOY (first CLASSY John Travers
Cornwell of the Chester was mortally
wounded early in the action. He
nevertheless remained standing At
most exposed post quietly awaiting
orders until the end Of the action, with
the guns crew dead and wounded all
around him. l regret that he has
since died, but I recommend his case
for, special recognition in justice to
his memory and as an acknowledge
ment Of the example set by him"
The body was at first hastily buried
in a common grave in Manor park,
with only the No. 1928" upon a plain
piece of wood to mark his resting
place. In response to letter received
from the boys mother, the admiralty
has written announcing its decision to
have proper honor done to his
memory. The new grave will be in
Manor park cemetery or in a place
to be selected by the mother.
Cornwell was 4 member Of work
ing class family, the head OF which is
fighting in the field. His mother
stated in an interview that the boys
single desire from babyhood had been
to join the navy as a sailor. He tried
to enlist when the war began, but the
father would not sign his papers until
August, 1915. when he went to Daven-
port for training.

Wheat Prices Up
10 Cents Over the
Close of Tuesday

The Omaha grain market had q
feverish opening and heavy trading
yesterday with prices advanced
from S to 6 cents over night and con-
tinuing to go up until shortly after
noon when the tension relaxed a lit
tie. September wheat, which closed
strong at $l.27H Tuesday, after a
comparatively dull day, opened at
$l.32H@l.33H, and rose to $l.38H
by noon. The government crop report
was not so favorable as had been ex-
pected, and the shorts were in a hurry
to cover up. The rise was further
helped by more reports of damage in
Canada and by the strong export
buying which developed on the mo-
mentary slackening Of the market
Tuesday.
The Omaha market reported 100000
bushels of wheat bought for storage
here. Receipts were light in compari-
son with week ago. All the cereals
were strong, corn Strengthening about
cent and oats strong.
