In England and II Lord Northcliffc
presents to Orville Wright a medal
which the government intends to do.
that will De done in recognition on the
part of England Of Wright's supreme
relation TO the air ship.
The government officials were told
that the Wright brothers will hero
after be recognized fully, first, as the
original inventors of machines heavier
than air capable Of making long
flights and Of being accurately con-
trolled, and second, as the inventors
who perfected so far as that Is possible
the safety OF the air apparatus. 1t
is true that Orville Wright was in
jured when an air vessel he was d.
recting fell. but that was due entirely
to the carelessness OF one OF those
who had been employed In building
the vessel
United States Reliance ON Wright.
Wilbur wrights death was caused,
according to the medical certificate,
by typhoid fever. But he was really
in such physical condition as made
1t possible for the fever to take dead
ly hold upon him. He had been wor-
ried almost to death by the neces-
sity' of defending his patents and by
various annoyances which were oc-
casioned by unprincipled men who
were trying to take advantage OF
the invention OF the Wrights'.
1t Is presumed that Orville Wrights
advice and possibly some supervision
are relied upon by the government
at the aviation camp near Dayton.
The government was told that the dis
tinguishing characteristics OF the in
vention OF the Wright Brothers, an
invention which they financed out OF
their own savings, was first the dis
covery OF the correct wing or plane
curves, and second, the discovery and
invention OF the apparatus which
makes the control OF the air machine
when in flight feasible.
These were absolutely original IN
ventions. The brothers had no data
to refer to. They had no research
work to consult for there was none
And IL the government has, within
the next two years. fifty or sixty
thousand air machines which will
constitute an important part Of the
military operations, each one OF these
will represent the original work oi
these two American young men.

CHICAGO GRAIN MARKET.
BY JOSEPH F. PRIrCHARD.

Chicago. Oct. 3.-The swings In May corn
during the month Of November have been usu-
ally limited TO to s cents pior TO 1915 and
the average prices during that month were the
forerunner TO the winter corn price average.
The trade in general will watch closely for the
range In Eolues during the next month.
There were So cars inspected here today, which
was about the same as received a year ago.
According to handlers Of cash oats, there was
another big day on export account making
probably 10000 bushels taken In the past
three days. This grain is going TO government
agents and the total transactions are covering
the business at Chicago as we'll as at outside
pointS
County offerings Of oats were reported as
somewhat larger, hut this was not shown In the
receipts at Western points Cash premiums
advanced y cent on No. . white, but the
standards held about steady and both were ~
cents over the December at the close Of the
day.
Ths market for provisions was frner and
higher. the advanos being 10 to 3 cents for
lard, rs cents for pork, and 20 cents for rib.
It is felt that the holdings Of both the cash
md futures are concentrated and that lard Is
likely 70 rule unsettled in consequence. Before
the month Of November has rolled around the
lard market will doubtless experience many
sharp price changes.
