though We discussed everything and
everybody we knew. always excepting
the one topic which lay nearest our
lips, the news OF Harry Undetwoods
temperance in the land of the living

have upon Robert Savarin.

Lillian broached the subject. and

greatly cut by the war.

history OF the union ticket office

BIG SLUMP IN
FOOD PRICES
Corn and Provisions Fall Under
Heavy Onslaught.

Chicago, April 80. - Tremendous
price smashing took place on the board
of trade
Holders of grain and provisions com.
peted on big scale in efforts to un-
load and to stop losses on declining
market. A long threatened free move
ment of corn and hogs from rural
sources was largely responsible for
the general rush to sell.
Breaks as shown after midday
amounted to SA a busheI on corn and
s1.30 barrel on pork.
May delivery of corn showed the
greatest weakness dropping to S1.57A
as against S1.65B to S1.66 at Mon
days finish. July delivery at S1.57h
was off more than thirteen cents from
Tuesdays top level. Trading in the
'orn market was especially on broad
scale with individual operations
counting for little.
II was asserted by the federal wheat
director that if necessary all import
restrictions on foreign wheat = and
-four would be taken off: He'safd there
was plenty of American wheat and
flour if the speculative tendency was
stopped.
This announcement was followed
Immediately by further drops in the
corn market The close found prices
virtually at the lowest of the day. 9k
- liz cents under Mondays close,
With s1.551a to $156: July, $1.53A to
S1.54A, and September at S151 10
511b.
Accompanying the break in prices.
and forming a powerful aid to the
sentiment for a greatly cheaperlevel
of values. was a notice from the fed
eraI wheat director that the govern
ment would discontinue, until further
announcement, purchases Of wheat
flour for export excepting first clears
and victory mixed flours. The purpose
of this notice was said to be to stop
speculative fever.
According to notice of the director
the government would undertake to
resell from its current stocks at such
points as New York, Baltimore and
Philadelphia, standard -four at S11.50

GIVE CABLES RlCK
TO OWNERS MAY Z
BurIeson Orders the Systems
Returned.

Washington, April 30.-Postmastef
General Burleson issued an order re-
turning the American cable system to
their owners, effective at midnight,
May 2.
President Wilson approved Burle-
sons recommendation that the tele-
graph and telephone systems be re-
turned to their owners upon the en-
actment of legislation deemed neces-
sary, and that the cable lines be re-
stored to their owners forthwith.
The presidents approval was an
nounced in a cablegram to the White
Heuse.
Members of congress are informally
discussing legislation which will be
necessary before the land system can
be turned back to their former own
ers. No legislation will be required
in the case of the cable lines, it was
stated, as the officers of the companies
are in such shape that they can take
care of themselves.
Early action is looked for, as speedy
return to private ownership of the
wire service was repeatedly sought at
the last session.
