When King Albert and Queen Eliz-
abeth of Belgium come to America
in September, as a late Washington
despatch assures us they will do, the
worlds most democratic nation will
take special pleasure in extending
Its hospitality to the worlds most
democratic royalties.
For If ever ming and queen iusti.
fed their existence according to the
sternest standards of modern critics
1t is this pair, who, for four and a
half years of their country's agony
fought with their people, lived with
their people, shared with their peo-
pie the dangers, the hardships, the
endurances, the labors of the wors
and greatest Of wars.
Other royalties took shelter afal
from the firing line, and served theii
country by putting the palace on Q
prohibition basis for the duration oil

ciously on the breasts of mutilateG
heroes from the trenches. Albert ant

New York, Oct. 14.-While bull
lish special operations may be eX-
pected in the stock market this
morning and may be attended with
certain degree of success it would
seem good judgment to hold aloof
from the market until some Of the
present uncertainties are cleared
up. Aside from new crop of dis
turbing news and the presidents
condition, little has developed over
the holiday which may be calcu-
lated to have much of bearing on
the market Wall street had al
ready heard these rumors concern
ing the chief executive before they
reached the press. Despite its big
rise the market fails to give any
definite evidence of the distributive
selling owning to the unwillingness
of big operators to take their
profits and pay a large part over to
the government The oils look
very attractive and especially Sin
clair and Royal Dutch.

NO BUYING and
CORN RECORDS
ANOTHER DROP
Lack OF Purchases Attributed Il
Uncertainty Regarding New
York HarbOr Tieup.

Chicago. Oct I4-Pronounced
weakness developed in the corn
market today as a result of an IN
usual absence of buying orders.
This condition was attributed more
or less to uncertainty created by
the lOngshoremen's strike in New
York. Besides there was talk of
probable enlargement of rural Of
ferings owing to increased husking
and Smelling Opening prices,
which ranged from Il c to 11sc low
er, with December 1914 to 80,
and May 1904 to 1909. were fol
lowed by material further set
back.
In the later trading, support
continued lacking and the Decerl-
Der delivery reached the lowest
price in more than three weeks.
Stock market depression was a
bearish factor. The close was un-
settled 7sc to nc net lower. with
December 1919 to 1915 and May
1909 to 1905.
Oats took downward swing
with corn. After opening IN
change to Il C off, including Deem
Der at 703s to 70hc, the market
underwent a decided general fall.
Lower quotations on hogs and
grain pulled down provisions. Lard,
however, made d sharp rally.
