TWO-DOLLAR WHEAT
IS ALMOST HERE
Bullish Market Boosts No. Q
Hard to Within One Penny
of That Mark.
CORN is ABOVE A DOLLAR

Two-dolar wheat on the Omaha
market is coming long before the end
OF the week, providing the daily gains
continue. Right now TIE price lacks
only cent Of touching the mark, for
today No. 2 hard sold at $l99 a
bushel. If there had been any No. /
hard offered, according to the usual
split between the two grades. ii would
have sold at better than 81.
1t is certain, say m st Of the grain
men, that 81 wheat is in sight, and
some of them would not be surprised
to see the price go to $40 within two
weeks. They assert that everything
points to the next government crop
report being bullish one, and then
again, the armed neutrality situation
is another bullish factor.
While 500 was top price for cash
wheat on the Omaha market, there
was none that sold under $l.96. On
the whole, the price vas fully a cent
over Monday. Receipts were thirty
two carloads.
Corn Climbs High.
Corn was fully as bullish as wheat,
the top Icing $l.04, and the low $l02
Tor cash, cent up and thirty-seven
carloads on the market.
There were several features that
conspired to boost corn, one being the
fact that New England buyers took
over ESQ carloads, or close to 100000
bushels, TO- be shipped, out as soon as
available cars can be found. The sales
Of this quantity OF corn were made
on the basis of around 81. The freight
rate to New England terminals aver
ages around 20 cents bushel, bring
ing the price up to $1.20, delivered.
II is understood that most OF the corn
is for milling purposes. .
That corn is going to follow wheat
in the advance is the opinion Of most
OF the grain dealers. They point to
the fact that May futures are selling
up to $l.09B, July 1885 and Sep
TENDER $l07 bushel.
The demand for oats was Just the
same as for other classes OF grain
though the advance was only 4 cent
There were seventeen carloads on the
market and the sales were made at So
and S9H cents bushel.

KUGEL YEARNS FOR
COMING OF MAY ONE
Commissioner of Police Says
1.-THE Boys Are Trying to
Let Out a Few Links.

City Commissioner Kugel is yearn-
ing for May |.
"Will it never, never conner" is
his plant
He says "the boys are trying to
let out few links just because the
time is drawing near for them to
close up,
But let me say that from now
until May ! the lid is going to be
kept tight. Just take that from me"
exclaimed the head of the police de-
partment.
Mr.. Kugel says he did not make the
rounds Monday evening, but he un-
derstood from his subordinates that
all lights were out at 8 bells.
But I do wish May was here.
You Just don't know how much |
wish it." he added, his smile-bereft
face indicating secret sorrow.
He announced that on and after
May | he expects to cooperate with
the sheriff's office in maintaining
vigilance over those that may try
to evade the liquor laws.
Mr.. Kugel, however, seems to take
the position that most Of his worries
will have fed before the breaking Of
dawn on the first day Of May.

ton was in its infancy in this state.
The volume OF water flowing III the
North Platte river at various season
of the year had not been definitely
ascertained, and the actual flow was
largely a matter of conjecture. A
number OF the determinations made
therefore, were for water in excess of
the actual amount which experience
has shown was available for the
respective enterprises and which the
works could convoy.
Perhaps this fact should be con-
sidered by the state board in times
of scarcity, but this question was not
presented, and is not decided. The
true test of ultimate right to the
water is its actual application to a
beneficial use. The spirit and the let
ter of the statute compels the most
rigid economy in the use of water so
that the full benefit OF it may be de-
rived. If not in use by prior appro-
priators, others may use it. No dog
in the manger policy can apply.
"lf the non-use is continued for the
statutory time the right ceases, may
be forfeited, as the statute provides,
and more diligent users may acquire
the right to its use under the au-
thority Of the board. A land owner
taking more than he is entitled to is
liable to damage to those injured. No
appropriation is entitled to more than
can be beneficially used or more than
the least amount which experience
indicates is necessary for the produc-
ton OF crops in the exercise of good
husbandry.

slider the questions presented as to
the rights of the plaintiffs and cross.

COMPENSATION
LAWS HELD VALID
Compulsory Act of Washington
and Voluntary Act of Iowa
Declared Constitutional.
NEW YORK LAW ALSO GOOD

Washington, March o.-The FIRST
compulsory workmen's compensa
ton or industrial insurance law-that
OF Washington state-to come before
the supreme court was upheld today
as constitutional.
The court also affirmed state de-
crees compelling the Mountain Tim
Der company of Kalama, Wash. &c
contribute to the state compensation
or insurance fund.
The decision as to the constitution.
atty OF the law was by a vote of
to 4, Chief Justice White and Justices
McKenna. Van Devanter and Mercy
nolds dissenting.
Constitutionality OF the Washing
ton law was questioned in a suit b,
the state against the Mountain Tim
Der company Of Kalama, Wash, ;
Nebraska corporation, to collect con
tributions to the state compensation
fund levied by the State Industria
commission, created to enforce thu
law and fix compensation of injured
employees.
Several Issues Involved.
Extent of the laws application
whether it or the federal employers
liability act applies-to certain EN-
ployes of common carriers was in
volved in three other suits Of such
employees for personal injuries.
In all four cases the Washington
statute was upheld as constitutions
and also applied to the common car
riers' employees, displacing the fed
eral statute to that extent. In the
Mountain Timber company case til,
state supreme court held the law
valid and gave judgment to the state
for the contributions assessed. In the
employees suits against the common
carriers the Ninth circuit court o.
appeals affirmed their dismissal by
Federal District Judge Neterer.
The Mountain Timber company
case was argued in February, 1916
but the supreme court reached nc
decision and it was reargued in Jan.
uary, 1917. Between the two hear.
ings Justices Brandeis and Clarke
were appointed, Justice Lamar died
and Justice Hughes resigned.
That the law, enacted in 1911 and
the only compensation statute Of any
state establishing compulsory com.
pensation standards exclusive of any
other procedure, violates the "due
process" constitutional clause, de.
prives employers and employees Of
liberty of contract and abridges rights
of both to jury trial of personal in.
jury actions, were the principal
grounds of attack upon the statute
an attack made both by the Noun.
tain Timber company as an employ.
er and by William Raymond of Seat,
tie, Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Pau
railroad employe.
The state authorities defended the
law as valid exercise of state "po
lice powers" to prevent waste in lti
CATION over industrial injuries and a.
social legislation to meet changed
modern conditions. .
The Iowa workmen's compensation
law, voluntarily upon employees, was
today upheld as constitutional by the
supreme court.
New York's compulsory workmen':
compensation law was sustained as
generally constitutional by the SUI
preme court today.

Men Arrested at New York Re-
oeived 100000 from Him
to Start Movement.
LITERATURE IS SEIZED

New York, March Or. c. Hama
dor Chakiaberty, a Hindoo physician,
and DR.. Ernest Sckunner, "a, de-
scribed as a German, were arrested TO.
day on charges OF conspiring to set
up a military expedition against a
foreign country on friendly relations
with Che United States. The police
say the men confessed that they mad
plotted under direction of Wolf Won
Igel to invade India by way OF Oh ma.
Won Igel, indicted, but never tried
for completely in an alleged plot to
destroy the Welland canal, is with
Count Won Bernstorff, former Ger
man ambassador to the United States,
who is approaching Copenhagen on
the steamer Frederik VIII.
Won Igel Furnishes Funds.
From Won Igel, according to the
police, Dr.. Chakiaberty and Sckunner,
who have been suspected tor 5 !ir1e
time, received 100000 and the Elm
doc. posing. as Persian merchant,
obtained passport which enabled
him to get TO Berlin. In this con-
nection an additional charge OF frau
dulently obtaining passport has
been made against the. physician.
DR.. Chakiaberty, according to the
confession, revealed his plans Of an
invasion OF India to certain officials
in Berlin and then returned to New
: York, where he and Won Igel pre-
pared literature printed in various
native India languages. In the house
in west One Hundred and Tween
ticth street where the two men
we're arrested today the police
seized large quantities Of literature
and found also complete chemical
laboratory. ..t
Agent Sent to China.
After the literature was prepared,
according to the police, DR.. Chakia-
berty and Sckunner employed as their
agent an influential Chinaman, whom
they sent to his native country with
the idea OF interesting his government
in a plan to ship arms and ammuni-
ton from the United States to China,
where, with the Chinese governments
permission, they were to be stored
until the time set for the invasion.
The police said the two men de-
clared they had heard nothing from
their Chinese representative and did
not know what success, If any, he
had. N
In the laboratory Sckunner was
cndeavoring, according to the police,
TO compound preparation to be used
TO disguise contraband OF war"
The character OF this preparation
he refused to disclose. Ten thousand
small aluminium boxes about the size
OF a pill box were seized, together
with what appeared to be, official pa
pers. The latter have been turned
over to government agents.
