TRIO 5 DAYS IN
Nd MANS LAND

| Paris. Nov. 12-The business Of war
at night during the big American Of
fensive brought these adventures to
three Of Pershing's men:
Two engineers and a wounded in
fantryman got lost from night patrols.
They spent five days and nights with
in the German lines, hiding in a dug
out 10 yards from a German machine
gun nest. The engineers nursed their
wounded comrade. taking turns hold
ing a tender hand over his mouth so
his delirious mutterings wouldn't be
heard by the Germans. They spent
kS hours without Todd or water And
finally. they rushed the Boche ma
chone gun nest, killed the crew. ran
a gauntlet of fire from a dozen other
machine guns, swan a river and got
back to the American lines with mucil
va,Iable information
The engineers Were Privates Frank
G.. Shultz and Edward Morrisv. and
the wounded infantrvman was Private
Frank DeBlase. On the fifth day, prey
to desperation, they decided they

So. just before daylight. when there
was enough light to guide them to the
river and enough darknes to make the
Germans aim uncertain, they made a
dash for it,
Schultz supported the wounded De-
Blase. wkhile Morrisya said a prayer
and hurled two granades at the Ger
man machine gun crew near by. Both
exploded. Shrieks in German wer.,
heard-then silence from the nest And
the two engineers, the wounded man
stumbling along between them, dash
ed for the river in a hail Of bullets
from other machine guns. They plung-
ed into the water, struggle across and

CHICAGO GRAIN.
By JOSEPH +. PRITCHARD

Chicago. April 2i.-Acurding to an official
report received from Missouri today the what
m that state is forming heads and the har-
vesting of that grain will he Earlier than nor
mails this year. This applies to the southern
Iart of tho State and the southern part Of
Kansas as we'll as Oklahoma will ere long pre-
sent a golden appearance. as the new wheat will
soon commence to turn yellow which will mean
the harvest viii follow at no far-distant day.
The eyes Of the world will keep closely cen
tered ulon the wheat pTOmise in the various sec
tions. and as the winter wheat h-lt will produce
the first grain. that section will he watched
more cius,!y than ever before.
The oats market was the weaker spot in the
grain list today. although it showed losses Of
cnly 4 TO ?. cents for the deforrtd and | cent
for the nearby months. There were cash sales
at Chicago Of $500 bushels for domestic use
and there were cash sal $ at outside Ioints oi
1000 bushels at sSi certs over Chi.ngr. These
salCs were made at st. Louis and Kansas Iiiy
and export bids at Chicago were reduced to
" cents on track at the seaboard ports Later
there sales q 1900 bushels oats TO ar, i've
in ten days at a.: cents over Chicago May
Cash sales at Chicago were at unchanged to :!
cents higher prices.
The corn market showed considerable strength
May futures teing up u cests while July was
unchanged. With the weakness displayed in
oats there is little wonder that corn failed "a
advance TO higher levels. Additional showers
are promised for Kansas. Nebraska, Iowa, Mis-
souri, ard Illinois. with higher Temperature.
Country offerings Of corn are not up to expeCts
tiGns because Of the scarcity Of cars coupled
with the fact that farmers arc busy in pushing
seeding Of this grain
The provision market lacked support. while
offerings were somewhat larger. Shipments d
lard ard meats were smaller than a year ago
although New York cleared $4,000 rounds
bacon for export. There is more doing in rush
meats end lard on governmental account than
is generally known

Resumption Of Big Battle Provokcs
Selling Movement.
BY BROADAN WALL

New York, April A.-Specialties wero
SO active and strong today that trad
ers I'm general became alarmed and
sold the standard issues. This SELL
ing movement was excused on the
grounds that the big battle in France
had been resumed again at terrific
pressure. Some brokers complained
again of the money rates. and there
was a report that the Federal Re-
serve Bank would punish Wall Street
for its small purchases of Liberty
bonds by making it difficult to get
funds.
The break of 10 POINTS IN cotton
for options was due to resale of cot
ton purchased for export.
American Sumatra, Gulf States
Steel. Distillers. international Paper.
Inspiration and Studebaker attracted
most attention. All of these made
new high records, except the last
named, which made a low enc.
Sumatra continued its advance in
response TO the embargo placed by the
government against the importation
of leaf tobacco.
In Gulf States Steel there is the ex-
pectation of large bonus to be paid
in The near future. The stock ad-
vanced nine points today.
International Paper is still respond
ing to the big earnings reported for
1917. and in addition to that it is well
known that the trade is improving.
Mexican Oils were nervous because
Of persistent reports of trouble brew

however. and price later improved. The buying
Of October by brokers with Wall Street and
western connections was a prominent feature
on the advance which carried active months
about S to II points net higher. The volume
OF business tapered off on this bulge, and the
market was quiet during the middle of the
morning
The weekly weather report failed to induce
