TROY

Troy June 5.-(Special. )-A large audience of negroes and white people heard splendid, common sense ad- dress here Sunday afternoon made at the negro Baptist church by pr. Rob- ert Moton. principal of the Tuskegee institute. He insisted upon registra- tion Tuesday as the duty of every pa triotic American citizen. He attributed the migration movement to the one- crop system, the boil weevil advent, coupled with floods and destructive storms which had caused unrest and not bettered conditions of labor He said that inducements by labor agents of better wages, better schooling and less race determinations in the north were a great cause. He insisted that the south was the best place for tho negroes and believe that the move ment would be stopped by a better un- derstanding between the races. Mob violence,' he said whether in Ten nessee or Illinois, will not solve the race problem. It must be handled In spirit of justice and fair play"

Chicago Board of Trade
 Makes Maximum Price for
 Corn on Future Delivery
By "Hopl

Chicago, June 4.-Board of Trade direc- tors fixed a maximum price for corn late Monday, as was done with wheat several weeks ago. The price fixed was $1.65 on all contracts of corn for future delivery.
 A special meeting of the directors was called immediately after trading closed this afternoon, later the following reso- lution was given out:
 Resolved That on and after Wednes- day, June g. 1917, until further notice members of this board in making con- tracts for the purchase or sale, by grade alone, of corn to be delivered in store, either for immediate or for future de- livery shall not, in entering into such contracts, exceed the price of s1.s5 per bushel. Be it further
 Resolved, That any member trading in violation of the foregoing shall be deemed to have committed grave of- fense against the good name of the as- sociation.'
 Joseph P. Griffin. president Of the Board of Trade, said after the meet ing:
 'Tn order that this action of the direc- tors in fixing maximum price for all corn contracts may not be misinterpreted, would have it understood that the step was taken for purely preventive reasons. While governments and consumers are liberal buyers of corn for present and future delivery there is no present indica- ton that this buying has reached pro- portions that might result in unduly en- hancing values.
 Tt is the policy of the administration at Washington to prevent the price of foodstuffs reaching an apnorma1ly high level; and the action of our directory today is simply in support of the policy of President Wilson and his advisers

 A tragic suicide occurred in Mt. Gill cad cemetery. several miles north of Troy on the Orion road, Friday night. Dan Bradley, white man, who lived at Glenwood, killed himself by shoot ing the entire top of his head off with a gun. He went to the cemetery and made deliberate preparations for the act.

He pulled the string with his toe that fired the shot which blew the top of his head off and scattered portions of his skull and brains for a distance of " rect The Sner11I rom Troy was called and decided no inquest was necessary, as suicide was evident. In the mans pockets were found a few possessions and 25 cents in money. Near his body lay a small bundle of clothes. He was buried near the spot on which he took his life
