CHICAGO, November s-Commis-

the selling side Of the corn market.
and there was consequent weaken
ing of prices. Prospects that an ar
mistice with Germany would be
quickly brought about formed the
chief bearish influence, In some
quarters, however, there was dis
position to assume that the signing
of the armistice might prove bullish
factor as to nearby deliveries, all
though making deferred options weak.
Opening quotations. which ranged
1.19A to 1.1Ss and January 1909 to
1.20A, were followed by slight rally
and then by a fresh setback.
Oats duplicated the changes in corn.
Trade was light. After opening un-
changed to y lower, with December
70 to 7O3s, the market receded mod
erately all around.
Provisions were dull and easier.

MAKING PETS OF GERMAN
PRISONERS.

Des Moines Capital: There have
been repeated complaints in regard
to the extraordinary care and atten-
ton given to German military pris-
oners. It has been charged that they
are entertained as II they were at
the Waldorf-Astoria. German prison
ers who are officers are paid their
fun salaries by the United States
government, the expectation being
that the money shall be repaid after
the war. This, we are told, Is inter
national Law. This, in itself. is a
crime, but one which cannot now be
corrected. But report comes from
Atlanta, Ga, that in prison there
devoted to taking care OF Germans,
German bands have been permitted
to 7lay the German national air. 1t
is also reported that when q new
bunch Of prisoners came IN from
submarines they were greeted. by
their cmpatriots as Nctors and
heroes. The official report says the
prisoners are, in a large measure, the
guests of the nation It seems al
most impossible to get this nation
onto a war footing It seems that
these German prisoners were cunsid-
cred a gentle Christian delegation
from the Krupp establishment. They
were not looked upon as murderers
and they were not treated as such.
The German prisoners should be
treated well and fed well, but they
ought to every day be impressed with
the fact that they are prisoners. They
should not be permitted to go around
with sneers on their faces, which
they do in an effort to express their
contempt for Americans AMI all
things American. Generosity toward
Prussian soldiers is wasted and kind
ness in every instance has been taken
advantage OF.
