give correct analysis of the
plight of the dual monarchy.
From the military point OF
view the statement is based on
two movements. the latter of
which was disclosed when stress
was laid on the fact that the new
Italian offensive through Albania
for the first time applied the prin-
ciplc OF the pincers to Austria.
From what has been disclosed rs
tn this Italian movement ii is
plain to STAFF officers that 1t is
perhaps equal I'm importance with
the Macedonian drive, OF which
il was originally part.

logical connection with the COM
bined American-aliied naval at
tack on Durazzo. the Austrian
naval base. and the whole move

against Austria by combination
of tho navy and the army.
What the STAFF says Is that the
Italians arc going on, probably
by forced marches. directly to-
wards Durazzo: and that this Is

Chicago Grain and Provisions.

Chicago. Dec. 11.-Corn advanced In
value today on the correct assumption
that cut might be made in the gov
eminent estimate Of the 1918 yield. The
market closed firm, ssc to Nc net higher,
with January $1.31% to $1.32, and May
s1.30% to S13oh. Oats finished Nc off
to SC up, and provisions carrying from
12c decline to q rise Of 15c.
Although the government crop report
did not become public until after trading
hours, the fact was well understood be-
fore hand that the revised figures from
Washington in regard to corn production
this season were likely to show a decided
shrinkage as compared with preliminary
estimates. The consequence was some
thing Of a bulge all around In prices, es-
pecially during the last Is minutes. Ear
lier in the day. free buying Of January
delivery for leading elevator company
was notable feature. but the bullish eff
feet on the market as whole was partly
ing of May on the part Of commission
houses with country connections.
Oats held within narrow limits. Trade
was light. mainly local.
Expected resumption Of hog shipments
to Chicago tomorrow largely offset in
the provision market the influence Of the

and Paul Konecky are the only vets
left from the first team, although a
handful of men from the second
string will turn out for practice.
Benolken, Art Paynter, Art Burn
ham, Harper, Ayers and Swoboda
are prominent Central High athletes
who will report for floor practice.
The schedule has not yet been
arranged, although the dates with
South High and Commerce High
