Chicago Grain.

Chicago, Dee. 19.-Corn rose to the highest price yet this season, De- cember selling at $1.26. Scarcity of ferings brought the advance. Re ceipts also were meagre, a fact said to be due in large measure to want the lack of cars. Opening prices, which ranged from Is to 1-4c to 5-Sc higher with January $1.21 and May $1.19 to $1.19 Is to 1-4, were followed by moderate additional gains.
 Seantiness of arrivals had a bull ish effect of oats. Sellers were hard to find.
 Provisions ascended rapidly owing to advice by the food administration that farmers hold back hogs. that farmers hold back hogs. Demand was chiefly from shorts. x

PETTY THIEVES BUSY



B. C. Taylor, of the Little Meadows,
reports that some days ago parties
broke into what is known as the Low
er Pump Station and carried away a
sack of the fittings of the motor and
other machinery.
He was able to track the culprits to
a cache and recover the many articles
missing. The motor, pump and all of
the other paraphernalia had been dis
connected and prepared for its removal
when he came upon the scene.
The place was watched for some
time to apprehend, if possible, the
thieves, but they were smart enough
not to return. Of late it seems impos-
sible to leave anything at all that is
not under guard without its being
carried away, or, at least, an attempt
made to get away with it, and the
sheriff's Office is constantly being be-
sieged with complaints. A number of
these petty thieves will have to be
sent to the penitentiary for a term be-
fore the thing is stopped.

ASKS TEDDY TO
STOP AGIlATING

WASHINGTON, April 26.-Joseph
Letter, president of the Army league,
telegraphed Colonel Roosevelt today,
asking him to desist from his agita-
ton for a volunteer division for SER
vice in France, because his attitude
was "giving aid and comfort to the
enemy in congress"
81 do not believe any one questions
your patriotism or your Americanism
in the present crisis" said the mes
sage, "yet I regret that in your eff
forts to put our flag on the firing
line at the head of force of volun-
teers you are giving aid and comfort
to the enemy.
"The opposition to the principle of
universal obligation to train in peace
and serve in war is using your offer
as an argument against the passage
Of the administrations bill"
