CHICAGO GRAIN

CHICAGO, Jan. 19.-Rising rates Of
vessel insurance on the Atlantic tend
ed to depress the wheat market today,
and so, too, did an apparent pause in
export demand. Prices closed heavy,
1Bc to 2%c net lower, with May at
s1S7% to $1.8S and July at s1.52A to
s1.52as. Corn lost z a &c to ! Nc, and
oats &c to II @%c. Provisions wound
up at sc to 12kc net advance.
Disquiet in regard to increased perils
for ocean commerce handicapped the
wheat bulls from the outset. Holders
who had profits in sight made haste to
realize, and while doing so received a
decided jolt from announcements that
marine underwriters were hosting
charges to record breaking figures.
Refusal by the interstate commerce
commission to increase storage charges
on expert grain seemed also to count
in favor of the bears.
Bearish domestic crop reports formed
something of an additional weight on
the market.
Profit taking by holders acted as a
burden on oats as well as on wheat
Opening bulges in both faded away and
were succeeded by declines.
Advances in the provision market re-
suited chiefly from higher quotations
on hogs. Close:

Kidney Disease is too dangerous
to neglect. At the first sign Of
backache, headache, dizziness or
urinary disorders, you should give
the weakened kidneys prompt at
tention. Eat little meat, take
things easier and use a reliable kid
ney tonic. There's no other kidney
medicine 80 well recommended as
Doan's Kidney Pills. Lexington
people rely on them. Here's one Of
the many statements from Lexing-
ton people.
P. H. Dennison, Hinson St., Lex
ineton, says: Il had a lot of trou-
BILE with the action Of my kidneys
and at the time my back was lame
and painful. Doan's Kidney Pills
brought me immediate relief and

Anti-Pass Bill Pass
es HOuse-=Amended.

What Is known as the Anti-Pass
Bill. which has already passed the
Senate, by the action of the highest
branch Of the Legislature excepting
none but the members-of the State
Pension Board, went over to the
House on last Friday and passed
with so many amendments and ex-
ceptions, that If the Senate keeps
Its words, the anti-pass movement
will ingloriouely fail Of passage
just as ought to happen. In fact it
Is evident that at least some mem
bers of the Senate voted for the ex-
IRENE measure that was sent over
to the House, with the hope and
belief that it would there fail Of
passage. The right character Of
anti-pass law would be all right, but
the extreme and reveneeful meas.
ure which passed the Senate is not
entitled to anybody's respect-re-
CARELESS of whether it shall ever be
put on the statute books or fail Of
passage.

Senate Passes
immigration Bill.

On last Friday while the "holier
than thou" statesmen and the alleg-
ed crooks and tools Of the railroads.
in the General Assembly Of Ten
nessee were scrappine over the anti
pass bill in the House, a note was
received from Governor Rye, asking
the belligerents in the law-making
body to declare an armist:ce on
the anti-pass question long enough
to offer up and join in a prayer to
Almighty God to help and sustain
President Wilson in the great crisis
which was confronting him relative
to his course toward Germany In
consequence Of their resumption
Of unrestricted submarine war
fare within given boundaries. We
do not know that the Tennessee
prayers called for suspension Of
diplomatic relations with His Inn
perial Majesty, but that's what fol-
lowed Saturday. President Wilson
seems to believe in prayer all right
but does not confine his efforts to II
by any means.
