WAGNER GRAIN LETTER

CHICAGO, Dec. Corn and oats
higher on small receipts and New
York report of one billion oats sold
for export. Chicago receipts so small
at 60 cars of corn and 40 cars of oats
that the locals are now afraid that
the coal crisis may hold down receipts
for time. The presidents speech in
regard to high costs and plenty of
taxes otherwise confers no remedy.
Argentine corn Is below United
States prices. Spring wheat prices are
q factor in all grains. Oats primary
receipts since August are remarkably
low, and visible is not large enough to
withstand any foreign demand. Re.
actions are due but otherwise the
grain trade prefers purchases.

First Meeting of Council to Be Called When England, Germany, France and Italy
 Enter, Regardless of U. s.
Boundary of Saare
 Is First Question
Americas Representation Is
 Not Necessary at the Initial Proceedings, President E.x- pected to Sign First Call

WASHINGTON, Oct. 16.-While no official declaration can be made in ad- vance of the action of the senate on the treaty of Versailles, it was learned unofficially today that plans were be- ing laid for bringing the league of na- tions into existence almost immediate ly upon the publication in Paris of the ratification of the treaty by Great Bri- tain, France, Italy and Germany, which will put it into force.
 Although the United States cannot participate in the initial stages of the leagues work, it is understood that the decision has been reached to have President Wilson issue a call for the first meeting of the council of the league within the 15-day period pro- vided in the treaty for the appoint ment by the council of three members of the commission which is to deter mine the boundary of the Saare basin.
 Article five of the covenant provides that decisions of the council "shall re- Quire the agreement of all of the mem- bers of the league represented at the meeting" and it is held here that this does not specifically require the at- tendance of an American member to legalize such decisions.
 U. S. Not Needed
 No less than 15 commissions created by the peace treaty appear to require American participation and certain prebiscites confirming title to various disputed territories also are to be con ducted under a joint international con trol The present view of the off cials here, however, is that represent tatives of Great Britain, France, Italy and possibly Japan, whose ratification of the treaty is expected daily, will function in these matters without any challenge of the legality of the pro ceedings on account of the absence of the American representatives.
 Plans for the inauguration of the legue were discussed by Col. E. M. House during his recent stay in Eng pursued the work as far as he felt war ranted ill advance of the action of the senate on the treaty. It also Is under stood that quarters for the league sec retariat in Geneva tentatively have been obtained and while in London Colonel House is believed to have ar ranged with the representatives of other nations a tentative program for the first meeting.

WASHINGTON, Oct 16.-The long debated Shantung amendment to the peace. treaty, presented by Senator Lodge and approved by the foreign relations committee, finally was re- jected in the senate today with ma jority of an even score against it.
 In the vote of 35 to 55, fourteen Republicans swung over to the pro- treaty forces, while three Democrats lined up with those supporting the proposal. Of the six senators absent, two Republicans were put on record as in favor of the amendment and one Republican and three Democrats as opposing it.
 The roll call, which came at the end of another six and a half hours of sharp debate, in reality swept away six amendments instead of one, each change in the treaty text having been numbered separately by the commit tee in its decision to strike out the word Japan" and substitute the word China" throughout the sections re- lating to the province of Shantung By unanimous consent, however, the six changes were debated and voted on as one.
 Only three of the committees 45 amendments now remain to be acted on by the senate, 36 previously hay ing been rejected. Of those remain ing one relates to American represen- tation on the separations commission and two to equalization of voting power in the league of nations as sembly.
 After the vote was completed Sen ator Lodge announced that later i1e would move to strike out entirely the sections awarding the Shantung rights to Japan. Notice also was given by number of Republican sen ators who opposed the committee

course with Bolshevik Russia, whether by post or wireless telegraphy.
 Marshal Foch added the following instructions:
 Inform the German government that the British and French men of war in the Gulf of Finland will con tinue to blockade Bolshevik ports and detain from the moment they come in sight ships bound for Bolshevik ports"
 The preamble to the note declares that the open enmity of the Bolshe- wiki is directed against all govern ments and that programs of interna- tional revolution circulated by them constitute a grave danger to the na- tional security of all the powers. Every increase in the capacity of the Bolsheviki for resistance increase this danger, it is stated, and it would be de- sirable that all nations within peace and the re-establishment of social or der should unite together to resist Bolshevik government.
 For this reason, it is further declar- ed, the allied and associated govern. ments, after raising the blockade of Germany, have refused permission to their subjects to resume commercial relations with Bolshevik Russia.
 The German government is request ed to take measures in conformity with those enumerated.

Sec. Wilson Has
 No Definite Plan
 To Offer Strikers

WASHINGTON, Oct. 16.-Secre- tary Wilson, it was said today at the department Of labor, will have no special plan to offer as to adjustment of the controversies between bitumin- ous coal miners and operators tomor- row, when John L. Lewis, acting president of the United Mine Workers of America, and Thomas J. Brewster, president of the Coal Operators as sociation, meet with him here in an effort to avoid the strike called for November 1 in the central competi- tive fields. The policy of the labor secretary, it was said, will be to bring the leaders of the two opposing factions together through concilia- ton of their disagreements as devel- oped during the conference. Based on successes in adjusting disputes between miners and operators in the past, officials said today, there was a we'll grounded belief that the strike would be averted through the confer ence. As a basis for their belief they cited the threatened strikes in the central Pennsylvania fields and in Alabama in 1917 as showing the suc- cess of the secretary of labor's meth cd of bringing miners and operators together Tn the case of the Penn sylvania miners the strike was avert ed by what was known as the Wash ington agreement"

Allegehney Sheriff Says Body of Mrs.
 Sellins Mutilated

PITTSBURGH, Oct 16.-Sheriff Wm. s. Paddock, of Allegheny coun- ty, today sent to Chairman Kenyon of the senate committee investigate ing the steel strike, letter in which he practically charges that the body of Fannie Sellins, an organizer for the United Mine Workers, who was shot and killed August 26 at West Natrona, where there was a strike of miners, had been deliberately mu- tilated after the official autopsy to make it appear she was shot in the back.
 The death of the woman has at tracted much attention because of charges made by labor union men that she was murdered by deputy sheriffs. The coroner's verdict de- clared she was killed during a riot. The miners charge she was shot to death while protecting children from the sheriff's deputies. The body was exhumed last Monday at the instance of a relative and yesterday labor men sent to Chairman Kenyon an affida- wit signed by two physicians averring that there was gunshot wound in the back. The coroner's finding made no mention of such wound Some labor leaders have referred to the Sellins case as an example of the alleged methods used by certain cor porations to defeat workers who strike for higher wages and better working conditions.

Activities of Radical Aliens Causes Congress to Com mence Drafting Measures
 to Put Stop to Operations

WASHINGTON, Oct. 16.-Activities of radical aliens in the United States received further attetion today in congress.
 Several bills having for their pur- pose deportation of foreign agitators and aliens who fail to become citizens and Americanization offoreigners now in the country, were offered in the senate and house, while the latter passed legislation extending wartime passport restrictions for one year. This bill, recommended by the state depart ment and designed to keep dangerous aliens out of the country, now goes to the senate.
 Hearings on appropriations for nat uralization work were continued be- fore the house immigration commit tee. Raymond F. Crist, deputy com missioner of naturalization, told the committee 100000 foreign born per sons in the country were not citizens and that the presence of such a large undigested population" created "an alarming situation"
 The senate labor committee, which has been Investigating the steel strike decided today to hear witnesses Mon day and Tuesday as to the activity Of radical aliens in that strike. It also voted to close it's inquiry by the mid dle of next week so as to get to work on naturalization, which 1t proposes to press in the senate.

 Twenty Senators Debate.
 More than 20 senators took part in today's debate, extended speeches being made for the amendments by Senators Johnson of California, Sher- man of Illinois and La Toilette of Wisconsin, all Republicans, and against it by Senators Phelan of California, Democrat, and McCum- Der of North Dakota, a Republican. Senator Williams, Democrat, Missis- sippi, injected into the discussion a bitter denunciation of the attitude of some Irish-Americans, and sharp re- plies were made by Senators Phelan and Gerry, Democrat, Rhode Island
 After the roll call few minutes was devoted to the formal reading of the long treaty text and the leaders expect to continue the task tomorrow. The general prediction was that a vote on the remaining amendments would not be reached before the mid dle of next week.
 Senator Gerry, Democrat, Rhode Island, the Democratic whip, told the senate he did not like to let go un- debate charging disloyalty to Irish citizens. Such differences, he said, were entirely unjust.
 The amendment was supported by Senator Fall New Mexico and Sena- tor Brandegee, Connecticut, Republi- can members of the foreign relations committee, who declared American principles had been surrendered by President Wilson in making the Shantung settlement

Legal Attack Against Pitts burgh Authorities Prepared and Union Leaders Expect
 Injunctions By Today
Police Continue to
 Break Up Meetings
Mayor Says His Order to Dis pense Crowds Was Given to Maintain Safety for Non
 Striking Populace of City

PITTSBURGH, Oct. 16.-Labor leaders conducting the steel workers strike in the Pittsburgh district con tinued their preparations today to make legal attack against local and county authorities in Allegheny coun ty on the question of free speech and free assemblage, which the strik. CTS allege have been denied them Papers in the contemplated court proceedings have been prepared, and it is expected injunctions will be ap- piled for tomorrow.
 Mayor B. V. Babcock today issued a statement in reply to a warning sent him yesterday by counsel for the strikers that legal action would be taken if there was any further un- lawful interference with union meet ings. The mayor said:
 Mayor Explains
 That all may clearly understand my position in the controversy raised by Attorney w B. Rubin, represent ing, among others, John Fitzpatrick, Chicago, chairman, and Wm. z. Eos ter, secretary-treasurer of the nation al committee for organizing steel workers, over holding meetings in the city of Pittsburgh, desire to say that I deem it for the best interest of the city that no meetings be held in the strike zone. I have given orders to that effect.
 Peace and order in the city must be maintained. The fact that MT. Foster is continually in the city and ble in other places causes me to plan to be ultra-safe and conservative in the interests of the city of Pitts burgh and all the people inside of it's confines. There is no objection, whatever, to public meetings outside a strike zone in the city limits"
 The mayor said the police depart ment is maintaining order with a firm hand, "but not with a rough or inhuman hand"
 Strikers Satisfied.
 "The general situation is excel lent," said Secretary Foster tonight, with prospects of gains in small communities to which we have been unable to give more attention here tofore Only the successful outcome of the legal proceedings under way to secure free speech is necessary to close up the places in the immediate vicinity of Pittsburgh which are now crippled to a less degree than mills elsewhere"
