WEATHER REPORTS
SEND PRICES UP

Chicago, July 19.--Anxiety over the
near approach Of the last delivery day
on July contracts and in regard to
scarcity Of supplies with which alobli-s
cations Of sellers could be fulfilled,
brought about notable upturns today
in prices for wheat, corn and oats.
Wheat closed firm at a net advance of
q to 14c; corn finished unchanged to
/ LA higher and oats gained 6lSSto
1 $50. In provisions the outcome
varied from unchanged figures to lie.
decline.
Assertions that, owing to excessively
dry weather, North Dakota would not,
yield more than half a wheat; crop this
season worried shorts. Virtually no
wheat was for sale except at quota
lions about equal to what carload lots
on the track here would command.
July options were accordingly bid up
to 35c above Tuesdays close. 16 cents
up since yesterday. Primary receipts
were only about a quarter as large as
a year ago and millers reported an In
creased demand for flour and greatly
reduced stocks. ss,,
Corn prices ran up to new high rec
ords both for immediate and future
deliveries. Scantiness Of arrivals and
Of rural offerings were. h dominating
factors.
Unfavorable crop reports from Can
ada and North Dakota did much to
hoist the value Of oats.
Liquidating sales by holders of lard
weakened provisions.

Charge Police Neglected Duty
 M Cruger Case
(By Review Leased Wire)

NEW YORK, Aug. Slack of CO operation between the uniformed po- lice and the detective bureau of New York City was found by the grand jury which investigated charges of po- lice negligence in the case of Ruth Cruger, the high school girl whose body was found in the shop of Alfredo Cocchi. In a presentment today the grand jury stated also that there seems to be an inadequate supervision of detective work on the part of the commissioner in charge thereof"
 An indictment chargeing neglect of duty was returned against Lieutenant Cooper. who was acting-captain of the fourth branch of the detective bureau. who conducted the search for the Cru ger girl Lieutenant Cooper pleaded not guilty and was held for trial in s1.000 ball. The grand jury decided there was lack of interest shown in the discovery of the crime by the fourth branch of the bureau and that there has been a senseless and cruel rule on the part of the police depart ment to do nothing in regard to a missing person for "A hours. The grand jury is of the opinion that miss- ing persons should receive lat least the same attention as missing automo- biles."
Bisbee daily review., 1917-08-04

Late last evening a telephone mes sage was received from Tombstone from Ray B. Krebs. clerk of the local examining board for drafted men, stating that word had been received from Colonel Breen at Phoenix to the effect that if the local board could ar range matters it could hold such ex- aminations as it had time to make be- fore the dates set in Tombstone on August s. g. and 10. Acting on this advice Krebs notified Sheriff Wheeler and Dr. Hunt, the other members of the board, and it was decided at once to hold as many physical examinations in this city today as possible. The ex- aminations will be held at the Y. M. c. A. and will start at o'clock. The big room up stairs will be used and number of local physicians have vol unteered their services, as have a number of young men who will act as clerks. Clerk Krebs of the board ar rived last evening with the necessary blanks for the examination.
