MAXIMUM PRICES WILL STAY
CHICAGO Board of Trade viii Work in
Full Accord With the Fed
eraI Government

Chicago, July 21-There is 10 pres
ent intention to rescind OF modify
rules recently adopted fixing maxi
mum prices at which wheat and corn
may be dealt in on the board of trade
for future delivery, or by grade alone,
in store. This statement was made
this afternoon by J. T. Griffin, presi-
dent of the Chicago Board Of Trade
I'm view of the very alluring crop
promises as pointed out by the United
States government reports, it is not
probable that there viii be any neces-
sity for further maximum prices" said
Mr. Griffin However this admins
tration is in full accord with the views
Of the authorities at Washington, and
will not tolerate the use of our facili-
ties at any time during the existence
of the war to unduly enhance the
price Of foodstuffs."

REORGARIzE ATLANTIC FLEET
Plans of Administration Involve Ap-
PoIntment of Another Vice Adj
miraI-DetaiIs Kept Secret.

Washington, July 9-Reorganiza-
ton Of the Atlantic fleet has been or
dered by Secretary Daniels to meet
new problems resulting from expan-
sion Of the force to almost twice its
normal size for war service.
Details Of the steps taken are With
held for military reasons, but the sec
rotary announced today that re orga-
nization plan involved the addition of
another vice-admiral to the fleet and
that Rear Admiral Albert w Grant,
now commanding the submarine force,
had been named for the place
Admiral Mayo, the secretary said,
viii remain in general command with
the immediate authority under him di-
Yided between Vice-Admiral Coffman,
at present second in command, and
Vice-AdmiraI Grant. The former is
to have direct command of a division
containing most of the superdread-
naughts and designated as force No.
q while Vice-Admiral Grant will COM
mand the remainder of the fleet IN
der the designation of force No. L"
1t is understood the reorganization
will not affect the division of the fleet
now in European waters under Vice
Admiral Sims. At the Navy Depart
ment it was indicated today that pos
sible operations overseas are not con-
templated by the changes, and that
there is little probability that either
Admiral Coffman or Vice-AdmiraI
Grant will be sent abroad in the near
future.
Vice-Admiral Grants appointment
leaves no vacancies in that rank, and
if additional vice-admirals are needed
further authorization will have to
be sought of Congress.
Authority for the appointment of
three was granted with the under
standing that one would be appointed
for the Atlantic fleet, another with the
Asiatic fleet and the third with the
Pacific fleet, but so much more i'm
portance has been forced upon the
Atlantic forces in the Atlantic that it
was decided to station all three there.
Vice-Admiral Grant will be succeeded
as commander of the submarine
forces by Capt. S. S. Robson, now
commanding the battleship South
Carolina.

REICHSTAG VOTE
DEMANDS PEACE
Passes Resolution Calling For
No Forcible Annexation by
a Majority of SO.
MICRAELIS' TALK is UHHEEDED
6eiIigerent Policy of Imperial Govern
nent as Voiced by the New Chan
ceIIor Not Sustained

Copenhagen, July 21-With the
words of Chancellor MichaeIis' war
like speech ringing in their ears, mem
bers of the reichstag yesterday adopt
ed the majority peace resolution by a
vote OF PA TO 116. with seventeen
not voting. The vote was announced
amid great applause from the left and
the center.
The coalition peace resolution de-
clares Germany does not desire peace
with forcible annexations.
Chancellor Michaelis in his address
said Germany would not continue the
war a day longer if it could obtain an
honorable peace, but that negotiations
must be based on the principle that
the central powers were successful
combatants and had proved them
selves inyincible. Germany's peace
must be a victorious peace He as
serted that Americas Intervention was
not regarded with serious concern
The German fleet, particularly the
submarines. would master the situa-
ton, he said.
MiIitarism Not Sustained.
The resolution adopted in the reichs-
tag, however, does not sustain the bel
Hgerent policy Of the imperial gov
eminent as voiced by the chancellor.
independence, integrity of territory
and no annexation are the salient fea-
lures of the resolution.
The resolution as printed in the
Tageblatt of Berlin is as follows:
CAS- on August 4, 1914, so on the
threshold of the fourth year of the
war, the German people stand upon
the assurance of the speech from the
throne-'We are driven by no lust Of
conquest
Germany took up the arms in de-
Tense OF its liberty and independence
and for the integrity of it's territories.
Forced acquisitions of territory and
political, economic and financial VIC
lations are incompatible with such a
peace.
Freedom of the Seas.
1.-The reichstag rejects all plans aim
ing at an economic blockade and the
stirring up of enmity among the peo-
pies after the war. The freedom Of
the seas must be assured Only an
economic peace can prepare the
