TO CLAIM BOY
HURT BY TRAIN
Lad Suffered Amputation
of Foot and Hand Result
of Fall Under Wheels

John H. Cloan. of Sanish, N. D., for
merly of GAINESVILLE. father of the boy
who lost mis- leg and hand when he
fell under Great Northern baggage
car on which he was beating his way
from Moorhead to GAINESVILLE on
Thursday last, is in Moorhead today.
The boys ran away from home short
ly after school closed, according to the
fathers story, going to Minneapolis.
Leaving Minneapolis they went to
Anoka where they were picked up by
the police. Mr.. CIoan said he sent his
personal check to the chief Of police
at Anoka, but the boys were turned
loose and beat their way on trains to
Moorhead. Although kilograms were
sent to Mr.. Cloan by Chief of Police
Malvey after the boys were picked up
Mr.. Cloan says he never received
them. He says he was on his claim
IL miles from Sanish. N. D., the sta
ton to which the messages were sent.
Forest, the injured boy, is IL years
old. His left leg was taken off at the
knee and two fingers of the left hand
were amputated on Thursday. Later
it was necessary to amputate the
hand at the wrist. The unfortunate
lads right arm is broken. Roscoe, the

reading Of the resolutions would be
enough to Justify to anybody Mr.. VIII
son, high praise OF their spirit and
their spirited literary quality.
The Tammany society is commonly
known as 'Tammany Hail.. There Is
historic distinction, to be sure. but
IL is not always appreciable. The ap-
parent fact is that in many respects
the two organizations-the one polIt-
zeal. the other patriotic. social and
benevolent-are substantially iden-
teal
However, when II comes to Tam
many's resonant resolutions. an i'm
partial mind will not be prejudiced by
dwelling on the source. The essential
paragraph is worth reproducing as a
model pledge of militant loyalty to
the government:
"Resolved, that until this war is
prosecuted to a successful end,
until the enemy is compelled to
sue for peace. until the seas are
everywhere made safe and free
to American men. women and
children; until the world becomes
the home of democracy and OF
democracy alone; until there shall
exist on earth no government that
does not derive its power from
the consent of the governed, we
pledge out lives, our efforts, tai
ents and our honor to uphold the
hands of the president of the
United States"
President Wilson fervently &C
knowledging his sense of the spirit OF
patriotism and cooperation manifest
ed by the Tammany society. men,
tions this as an unusual resolution.
1t is, indeed, an unusually good one.

TRADE MARGIN
is VERY NARROW

Chicago, Ill. July 3O.--wheat: Trade
was narrow. Advices from Washing
ton are confusing and the situation
continues uncertain. Foreign condi-
tions unchanged.
Corn: The corn market was higher
early on hot weather and big advance
in southwestern markets but later
weakened as demand from shorts was
less active and profit taking was
heavy. Weather is favorable over
most sections but damage is increas-
Ing In thed rought districts and there
were some more complaints from Ne
braska. The market appears to be a
weather one for the present ..
Oats: Oats were higher early but
more than lost he advance on profit
taking. Except in few sections,
weather conditions are favorable for
harvesting and big yields are report
ed. On the other hand, farmers are
not selling or contracting to sell new
oats to any extent and the market is
eongested from a cash standpoint
The strength in cash markets encour-
ages new buying of futures, especial
~ OF the September. which is relative
ly firm.
Provisions: Price range today was
a little lower. The hog market was
about steady. receipts temporarily
light on account of strike OF switch
men in Chicago, but with this trouble
settled arrivals will be fairly normal.
General conditions are against low
prices and on the reactions we look
for good buying.
