Camp Meade. Nd, July 22.

Camp Meade. Nd, July 22.
There are about two-score perfectly
b good and strong guardhouses here which
might be converted into kitchens or
storerooms when the organization of the
Eleventh division begins IL Brieadier
General Joseph A. CASTOR. the camp
commandant. remains in charge after
the division is formed.
General CASTOR doesn't believe in
guardhouses. He doesn't believe in
locking soldier up or putting man
over him with gun when he has VIC.
lated some rule or regulation He thinks
only hardened criminals should be
treated in this manner and if any har-
oened criminals are found in uniform
ne is OF the opinion that the army is
, not the proper place for them.
This rugged old veteran of the regu-
lar army, who was best known as the
commander of the Sixth cavalry be-
fore the National Army came into be-
ing, took charge here less than a month
ago when the Sventy-ninth division be-
gan moving toward a point of embarka-
ton. One of his first acts was to clear
the guardhouses. He even went so far
as to release every man at disciplinary
OdFTdCks ana tnose VINO were to be dis
honorably discharged
Weak Need Only Help
There are two kinds of prisoners
in the army" said General CASTOR when
ne was asked about the amazing scarcity
OF prisoners in the guardhouses, "and
they are first the fellow who is GRIM
inal-who Is apt to commit any serious
offense from desertion to rape. The
other is the weak lad who violates rules
and regulations Of minor character.
The former should not be in the army
and, as fast as they are found, they
should be arraigned before a general
court-martia and dshonorably dis
honorably discharged
THE other fellow needs help. He'll
never get anywhere in the guardhouse
In fact he will come in contact with
the hardened fellows. will lose his self
respect and is apt to become a. criminal
himself
What is your idea of helping the in
discreet one?" the General was asked
why. point out the error to him,
caution him the first time and the sec
ond time give him a bit of hard work
to do during his hours of recreation for
several days. or week, or a month
II necessary" was the reply. Continu-
ing. General CASTOR said:
"It is absolutely wrong to keep a
man cooped up in a guardhouse and to
put him to work with a sentry over
him with a loaded rifle when he has
not committed a crime. He Is taken
away from his drills and is placed in
the wrong atmosphere. He should be al
lowed to live in the barracks; drilled
with his bunkies and when they are
At play he should be made to do hard
work as a punishment for his wrong
He will not run away because he knows
he could be charged with desertion."
Only One Broke, His Word
Many of the regimental commanders
Of the Liberty division felt the same
as General CASTOR on this question.
When their units left the camp on the
first lap of the journey to France, the
states were wiped clean and the spris-
oners were sent back to their COM
panies.-s

CHICAGO BOARD OF TRADE.

Chicago, Sept. 27.--Severe breaks
in the price of corn resulted today
from Bulgarian efforts for an armis-
tice. After setbacks that reached sc
q bushel the market closed nervous,
3kc to 4%c net lower with October
S1.42h to $1.42% and November
s1.40b to $1.40%. Oats finished &c
to 1kc to 1Ac down. The outcome
in provisions varied from 15c decline
to tic advance.
General selling in the corn market
took place from the outset, but it was
not until the final half hour that the
most acute weakness developed.
Doubt as to whether the action OF
the Bulgarian premier in seeking
peace had been fully authorized and
as to wether his move was not q trick
to gain time for the Bulgarian troops
did much to retard the descent OF
values. At no time, however, did the
market react to any important extent.
Temporary upturns which were noted
came from profit taking shorts. and
did not change the prevailing bearish
sentiment. Other factors, than the
armistice received but little attention
especially after confirmation of the
proposal seemed complete. Oats SYM
pathized with the weakness of corn.
Government and export buying,
though, checked the decline.
Higher quotations on hogs gave
some strength to provisions but the
weakness of corn finally became an
offset.
