CHICAGO GRAIN

Chicago, April 2S.-Feverish adj
vances Of 12h cents here in the price
OF wheat today were followed by a
sudden collapse of ISM cents, owing
largely to official denials that the en-
tente allies had been purchasing fu-
ture deliveries at Winnipeg. and be-
cause of the action Of the Winnipeg
exchange in summarily prohibiting all
speculative trade. A wild finish in the
Chicago market resulted, with the
price varying from 2h cents under
yesterdays close to cents advance,
with May at $2.74@2.74h and July at
$2.25@2.26.
Corn closed y off to l cent up and
oats off ~ to IN cents.
In provisions the outcome ranged
from ~ cents decline to an equal
gain.
Uncertainty Of wheat traders at the
finish was due in a great degree to
the fact that the recent great advance
in Chicago prices was based largely on
the assumption that upturns in the
Winnipeg market were due mainly to
purchases for Great Britain and her
allies.
Corn broke sharply with wheat after
having jumped with that cereal to new
high levels. Business in oats attained
large proportions, but otherwise the
cereal duplicated. the course of other
grains Provisions, like other COM
modittes, advanced to fresh top records
and then crumpled down.

NASSOC1dIeu ffeSS Summary.)
 Gaining momentum as it moves westward, the great Russian drive along the Dneister in Galicia contin- ues successfully. The fighting is progressing on 5O-mile front from Halicz to the foothills of the Carpa- thians, and all along the line the Russians are advancing
 Northwest of Halicz, on Thursday, the Russians enlarged their gains north of Dneister captured important heights between the river and Bukaz- pwitz and occupied two villages This advance is in the direction of Lem- berg.
 The Russians have made progress on the road to Dolina and have cap tured the crossings of the Lomnica at PerehinskO, about 15 miles south of KalusZ, and four miles west of BohoroboZany.
 The fate of the Zlota-Lipa line, de. fending Lemberg on tne east, still is in the balance but the Russians cor tinue their aggressive efforts to turn it from the south by widening the wedge on the Stanislau front in the last six days.
 Having forced the river Lomnica at Halucz, the Russians now are on the path to Dorina 20 miles southward. and to Stryj, 25 miles north of Dor i1a,: on the Kalucz-Le,nberg railway line. The capture of these towns probably would make certain the re- tirement of the Austro- German forces from the Zlota-Lipa line.
 Raids and reconnoitering engage ments have occupied the British and Germans on. the northern end of the front in France.
 South of St. Quentin, along the Aisne, and along both sides of the Mouse, in the Verdun region, the ar tillery only has been active. In aer- ial fighting, French airmen have brought down 10 German airplanes and driven IS enemy machines down behind their own lines in damaged condition.

Washington, July 13.-Chinese le. gation dispatches from Picking, dated at noon today said that quiet had been restored in the capital, after battle in which the monarchist troops of General Chang Hsun were Over- whelmed by republican forces.
 The republican victory was com plete, the dispatches said, the last contingent of Chang Hsun's men hay ing been forged to surrender. The monarchist general himself was re- ported refugee in the Dutch le- gation.
 The monarchical movement is thus thought to have ended, after brief thrae- weeks adventure, which threat ened the whole delicate Far Eastern situation

FINLAND DEMANDS INDEPENDENCE 0F
 RUSSIAN COUNCIL
Diet Passes to Second Read ing Bill Formally Denying
 Rights of Suzerainty.

Petrograd, July 13.-The Finnish diet on Thursday passed the second reading of bill virtually establish ing Finnish independence.
 The introduction of the bill has created a serious crisis here, and N. c. Tcheidse, president of the Council of Workmen's and Soldiers delegates has gone to Helsingfors in an effort to settle the differences.
 An indication of the seriousness of the situation was a late sitting of the Petrograd cabinet and decision of Premier Lvoff to summon back to the capital the ministers who are now with the army. According to the Birzhevya, M. Lvoff's Socialist col leagues declare themselves in sym- pathy with. Finland's move The pre- mier and other ministers belonging to the cabinet party refuse, however, to allow Finland to determine her rela- tions with Russia, insisting that she must wait until the meeting of the constituent assembly.
 The comment of the newspapers in Petrograd is sharp. The Retch de- clares it is impossible for Russia to tolerate Finland's move. The Birz- heviya hits at armed interference, saying Russia is now about to make a last attempt toward peaceful set tlement. '>, F'lsE.l s According to the present program Helsingfors will tomorrow put the bill passed Thursday into force "by simple declaration" mConing without Russia's sanction. Th,o is the first formal denial of Russia's suzerain rights.
 The law, which was engineered by the Socialists, proclain4c that Russia has lost all authority in Finland ex- cept the domains. of diplomacy and in the army and navy, wherein, however. Russia's rights are urdefined. All other prerogatives of the grand duke of Finland which the provisional gov ernment claims passed automatically to it belong to Finland Specifically the diet assumes the grand dukes right to put into exetrtion the law,
 convoke and prorogue the legisla- ture and appoint a supreme execu- tive.' !. |.
 The governor general is not men tioned in the law and, as no functions are left him, he is practically super seded. Telegrams from Helsingforz { declare that after the promulgation of the law the diet will appoint its
 own senate.

 WITH EARLY AID
Each State and Territory Is Given Gross Quota. and When National Guard and Volunteers Are Deduct.
 cd, Net Quota to Be Required.

Washington, July 13.--A formal order by President Wilson, drafting 6S7 ,000 men into the military service, under the selective draft conscription law, was promulgated today by the war department, together with an of- ficial allotment showing what part of the total must be furnished by each state and territory.
 The only steps now remaining are distribution by the governors of the state quotas among the local exemp- ton districts. and the great lottery, probably to be held next week. to establish the order in which regis trants are to present themselves for service or exemption.
 The men summoned for service will be used to fill the regular army and national guard to war strength, and to organize the first 800, 1000 of the new national army. The total of these three forces will be 1,262,9S5 men. out, supplemented by sufficient men to make up losses and maintain re- serve battalions.
 StAtoS UlV0n CreUlts
 In computing the number of men tol be required from the various states. the government put to the credit of each state every man it now has in the national guard and every man 1t has contributed since April as . war volunteer to the regular army. Plac- ing on the debit side of the ledger the national army of 500.000, the entire national guard at war strength. and the number of war volunteers needed April 1 last to bring the regulars up to war strength, the general total was apportioned according to population. This gave a gross quota for each state, from which a net quota was computed by checking off the number of national guardsmen available for federal service and the number of men given by the state to the regular army.
 The total of these gross quotas ia l. 152,9S5 men. Credit is given to the various state for total Of 466 ,986 voluntary enlistments in the national guard and regulars. making the total net quota for all states 687, GOO men.
