Wheat. Much Of the time. especially
early in the session, yesterdays wheat
market was decidedly two-sded af-
fair Foreign advices were encouraging
TO the bulls, European markets being
influenced largely by receipt of further
unfavorable reports from France, Italy.
Spain, Russia and Argentina.
The early frmness in our markets
was partly ascribed to continued light
receipts at primary points and the con
tinued lack Of moisture in winter wheat
territory, especially In the Southwest,
where heavy snow blanket would be
exceedingly welcome.
Later there was a radical change in
the temper Of the market, buoyancv
being followed by striking weakness
as offerings became larger, with more
pressure TO sell for both accounts. 1t
was asserted that selling was mainly
stimulated By receipt Of additional
vague and indefinite peace rumors. Ap-
parently prominent Interests took ad-
vantage of the opportunity 20 hammer
the market somewhat vigorously. As a
result May showed a net loss OF 1Mc
and July 2lsc.
Exporters we're displaying less in
terest, owing possibly TO the scarcity
OF freight room and to the renewed
peace talk

Industrial
Metals

The metal markets continue dull
with the trade awaiting further deyel
opments in the peace proposals. A
small amount OF business IL being
transacted in resale copper around ~
cents for January and February deliv-
cries. Leading producers and sellers
insist that the outlook is unchanged
so far as they are concerned.
According to Pittsburgh advices,
some of the managers of the larger
steel mills there said yesterday that
specifications in the first week of this
month had been heavier than those
received in the corresponding period
OF December. This is surprising, in
view Of the fact that there were only
FIVE working days last week. New
business is comparatively light, as
mills are practically sold up for eight
or ten months. Shipments are said to
be somewhat better, but mills have
enormous tonnages awaiting cars or
motive power. Prices continue firm.
Mills are refusing to sell sheet steel
beyond July 1.
Prices current for few Of the prin-
cipal metals and metal products, COM
pared with those prevailing at the cor
responding time of last year, follow:

ON HALIOwED GROUND

It ia pleasing to know that Gen
eral Allenby's impetus In the Pales-
tine campaign was so great as to en-
able him to rush past Hebron without
ighting . battle there. The city ID
too ancient and sacred spot to be
profaned with the horrible result of
a modern battle. We are told In the
Good Book that the city was built
before zoan in Egypt" Beside 1t
Jerusalem is an upstart.
Already immemorially ancient in
King David's time, Hebron was his
capital for seven years while he was
king of Judah only. but when he be-
came king of all Israel he established
Jerusalem as his capital, as we set up
Washington when we found that New
York would not suit all the people.
But what memories had already clus-
tered about Hebron, do cluster there
still! 1t was here that Abraham went
to mourn for Sarah, and there, in the
cave of Macpelah, that he buried her.
1t was at Hebron that Abraham laid
his own bones, and there where Isaac
and Jacob slept by his side.
The mosque of El Haran, which
still stands, 10 supposed to still cover
and still to guard the bones, or what
remains of them, of these patriarchs
of Abraham Isaac and Jacob, and
Sarah and Rebekah and Leah. 1t was
at Hebron that David wrote his
psalm, THE Lord ia my rock and my
fortress and my deliverer"-an i'm
mortal chant which inspired another
great song, Rock OF Ages, Cleft FOL
Me-"
Every hill about Hebron is sacred
On the other end of the line on which
the Turks are said to have made theil
stand, in vale near Shoco, Biblica
students have located the scene Of
the combat between David and Coli
ah. Belt Gibren, the right OF the
Turkish line, is the ancient Gath
which was the residence of Goliah, al
Hebron was so long the residence o.
David. Here are marvellous caverns
in which the fleeing people, children
of Abraham, who have never left hi
ancient home, may take refuge-cav

FRANCIS @. NEwLANDs.

BY the death OF United States Sem
ator Francis G. Newlands of Nevada
the Democratic party loses one Of its
ablest leaders and the country Is be-
reft of the services of a statesman of
rare ability and sound judgment at
time when talent of the very highest
order is needed. Senator Newlands
had been a hard worker all his life
and the Angel of Death found him at
his desk in the senate Office building
wrestling with the transportation and
other problems which now confront
the president and congress. He died in
the harness as he would have wished
had he been called upon to make a
choice. There will be genuine regret
all over the west at his taking off,
especially in Salt Lake and Utah,
where he was we'll known and liked.
He had plenty of political enemies in
Nevada, and barely escaped defeat
the last time he went before the peo-
pie, but we dare say now that he has
gone to his eternal rest, that the
Sagebrush state will find it very diff
ficult to find man Of equal caliber to
take his place in the councils of the
nation. Senator Newlands was SO
years of age when the final summons
came, but he was apparently in the
best of health, and news or his death
was received with a considerable
amount of surprise by his closest
| friends and poIiticaIs associates at
the national capital. In the mountain
states it caused a shock. But there is
no appeal from the summons and

UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT
TO CONTROL THE RAILROADS

Washington. Dec. 27.--One of the
first acts of the government in be-
ginning operation of the railroads
will be to reduce the large salaries
now being paid to railway executives
and increase in some measure, the
wages of railroad workers.
President Wilson, when he outlines
the governments plans in his forth
coming address to congress, will ask
that the government be empowered
to buy any quantity of new railroad
securities. All dividends over and
above the amount to be agreed upon
will go to the government. Congress
will be asked also to appropriate a
large fund, probably 5000, 900, 900,
for immediate supply of rolling stock
to handle the food of traffic, which
has swamped the roads.
The director general will have au-
thority to decide whether the govern
ment shall assume the operation and
control OF express companies.
William G. McAdoo, secretary of
the treasury in President Wilson e
cabinet, is named Director General
under the federal plan of taking over
the railroads during the war.
