GRAIN SPECULATION'S END
is SEEN BY TRADERS
Ban on Futures Is Put by Action Of
Chicago Board of Trade in Fixing
Maximum Corn Price,

Chicago, July 10. - Traders inter-
preted the action of the Chicago Board
of Trade in fixing a maximum price
of $1.28 for December and May de-
liveries in corn as practically term
mating grain speculation in the Unit
ed States during the war.
When trading recently was restrict
ed in wheat so as to forbid new deals
in futures, traders and spectators
turned their attention to corn. Prices
had advanced until finally the market
value of a bushel of corn was almost
equal to that of bushel of wheat
at war time figures.
1t is said the intensity of the strug-
gle in the corn pit during the last
month had surpassed all records. Not
withstanding favorable crop reports
corn continued to advance until yes
terday when all records were broken.

EVERY ELIGIBLE
REGISTERED MAN
INCLUDED IN DRAFT
DRAWING TO DESIGNATE WHO
WILL FIRST HAVE TO REPORT
FOR MILITARY SERVICE
IN WAR.
OTHERS HELD IN RESERVE
FOR DEMANDS LATER on
Each Man Registered Has About One
Chance in Fourteen of Being
Sent to the Trenches
Army Of 100000
Figured On.
OTHERS HELD IN RESERVE
FOR DEMANDS LATER on

Washington, July 14-Every man
of the 100000 or more in the United
States who registered is to be drafted.
The actual drawing which is to be
made next week, probably Wednesday,
will determine merely who is to be
called first if drafted.
The first numbers drawn will be the
men first ordered to the colors. There
will be a million of them. If out of
that million the War department finds
when physical and Industrial exemp-
tons are made, that there are not
enough left to form national army
of 100000 and fill the ranks of the
regular army and National guard to
war strength, additional men will be
called out until this is done.
This plan was made public by Secre-
tary Of War Baker in long interview
with newspaper correspondents.
May Not Be Called.
The fact that every man is to be
drafted does not mean that he will
have to serve. He may never be called
to the colOrs. But his name will be on
the list, no matter how far down and
he Will be subject to call if needed.
Government officials hit upon this
plan as the simplest and most effect
i've. 1t does away with the necessity
for separate draft for each new in
crement as conditions prove necessary.
But One Draft.
There will be but one draft for the
entire war unless conditions so de-
velop that the demands for man-power
are such that the entire 100000 are
used up and new call to take in men
of ages other than between 81 and 81
is found necessary.
1t also does away with the necessity
for draft for few hundred thousand
men in case it is found that more than
the first million are needed to form
an army of 100000 and fill the ranks
of the two forces now in existence
after exemptions have been made. In.
stead of drawing men until the re.
quired number is reached, men will
merely be ordered out in the order
their names stand in the list.
Mans Chances II to !.
The chances of the individual are IL
to l that he will not be sent to the
trenches, officials estimated. In the
first place on the basis Of 100000
men, it is 10 to 1 shot that John
Smith or w. K. Citizen will not be
among the first million.
Then after he is called, should he
be called, it is to l shot that he
will not fill the requirements. Officials
are going on the theory that only one
man out of four will meet physical re.
quirements for active service and at
the same time not be exempt because
of national, Industrial or family rea.
sons.
Out of the entire 100000 registered
only about 100000 at the outside will
be secured.

APPEALS TO BUSINESS INTER.
ESTS TO GIVE AID TO GOVERN.
MENT AS Freely AS THOSE
WHO OFFER LIVES.
WARNS AGAINST ATTEMPT
TO EXTORT GREAT PROFITS
"Let Us Never Speak of Profits and
Patriotism in Same Sentence" Says
Nations Chief-Just Treatment
BY Government and Public
During Crisis.

Washington, July 10. - President
Wilson has appealed to the country's
business interests to put aside every
selfish consideration and to give their
aid to the nation as freely as those
who go out to offer their lives on the
battlefield. In a statement addressed
to the coal operators and manufacture
ers be gave assurances that just prices
will be paid by the government and
the public during the war, but warned
that no attempt to extort unusual prof.
it's will be tolerated.
"Your patriotism" said the appeal,
''is of the same self-denying stuff as
the patriotism of the men dead and
MANNED on the fields of France, or it
is no patriotism at all. Let us then
never speak of profits and patriotism
in the same sentence"
Business Summoned to Colors.
The appeal is considered as sum-
moning American business to the COL
ors and explaining that prices mean
victory or defeat.
II shall expect every man who is
not Stacker to be at my side through
out this great enterprise In it no man
can win honor who thinks of himself"
President Wilson declares.
One Price for All.
The President declared there must
be but one price for the government
and the public. He expressed conf
dence that business generally would
be found loyal to the last degree and
that the problem of wartime prices,
which he declared twill mean victory
or defeat" will be solved rightly
through patriotic cooperation.
In unmeasured terms, however, Mr..
Wilson condemned the shipowners OF
the country for maintaining schedule
of ocean freight rates which has plac-
ed almost insuperable obstacles" in
the path of the government.
"The fact u.s." he asserted, that
those who have fixed war freight rates
, have taken the most effective means
in their power to defeat the armies
engaged against Germany"
