ton to reports that some corn in Illinois

Chicago, July 29.-Tribune: Traders who
turned bullish on grains on Tuesdays ex-
IRENE break and early yesterday furnished
most of. the buying orders and forced a
general covering movement and good ad-
vance yesterday. Strong interests were
outspokenly bullish and took the corn and
oats in way that brought converts to the
buying side on the belief that the ma Acts
had been we'll hquidated by the break of
16%c to 11zsc in corn and SIC to i1S%c in
oats, July leading in a week.
1t was assumed by the trade leaders that
prices were low enough for The time being,
and that with all grains oversold, a good
upturn was due and they supported their
opinions with buying orders.
Professional traders say that while corn
in the southwest is made, the Missouri,
Illinois and Indiana crop is late, and not
having overcome its Lateness, 1t is at a
stage where damage can be done by dry
and hot weather in the next few weeks
Considerable buying was on yesterday on
predictions of higher temperatures in Hi
nois and of prospects for lighter arrivals.
Heavy buying of offers on September
corn and oats was on last night by few
of~the largest operators.
Minneapolis millers lower spring wheat
flour 20 cents per barrel yesterday.

ROUND THE GLOBE
Amundsen Went Along North
Shore Europe and America. =
Arrives at Nome to Stock Up
for Pole Dash.

Nome, July 27.-Ronald Amundsen,
Norwegian explorer, arrived in Nome
tonight from the Arctic ocean.
Amundsen arrived here on a tug
and said he left his vessel. the Maude,
at Slaedge Island, not far from here,
where for the last ten days he has
been stormbound. He reported all
well with his expedition.
On his arrival here Amundsen was
taken to a hotel where several hun
dred people gathered to greet him
He said tonight was the first time
in two years he had been in place
where he could clean up"
Amundsen told of an encounter with
a polar bear last winter in which his
clothing was torn from his body. one
legs severely lacerated. He IS still
suffering from the effects OF the en-
counter.
Amundsen has gone to Nome. it is
thought to outfit for an attempt to
reach the North Pole. According to
Christiania dispatches in April, the
explorer hoped to lock his boat In the
ice off8astern Siberia and drift across
or near the pole, He plans to be gone
Ever since Amundsen sailed north
from Norway-in 1918 he has been in
the Arctic. For nineteen months he
was not heard from. First word came
from him in April, 1920, when menu
bers of his crew arrived at Anadir
Siberia, across the Bering sea from
Nome, and reported that they had
come overland from the Arctic. where
the Maude was waiting for the lee to
break so she could sail to Nome.
Amundsen's arrival at Nome. 1t has
been said, gives him claim to first Cir
cumnavigation of the globe thru the
waters between the Arctic ice pack
and the northern edges of Europe and
America.
II AFnundsen reaches the North Pole
he will have touched both ends of
the globe, for he is credited with the
discovery of the South Pole. In going
north he hopes to confirm or refute
the claims of the late Rear Admiral
Robert E. 'Peary to discovery OF the
northern tip of the world,

President Wilson Plans to Turn

Nominee Will Then Be Official
"Chief Democrat"

Dayton, Ohio, July 29.-President
Wilson shortly after the notification Of
Governor Cox on August Z, will issue a
statement acknowledging the nominee
as the new party 'eader. it was re-
ported in the Cox camp today.
Indications were this move will be
discussed today by George White, new
Chairman of the Democratic national
committee. with prominent Democrats
in Washington. White was prepared
TO give the nominees exact views
From reliable sources, it was learned
White and other close advisers of Cox
are anxious for the president to hand
over publicly the party reins.
Back of the move was the apparent
belief Republican leaders have initi-
ated a propaganda campaign, the main
theme being that the president as a
result of the White House conference
with Cox. intends to dictate the nomi
nee's policies. The recent meeting OF
the Democratic national committee in
ColumbusA expressed some dissatisfac-

Unusual interest in Cox's speech Of

Market Own Crops by 1922.
Manhattan. Kan, July 29.-Ameri-
can farmers are exceedingly tired of
SEEING the price of cereals they grow
multiplied by FIVE or six from the
time it leaves their hands until il
reaches the table of the consumer.
Beginning with 1922 the farmers OF
the middle west will market their
own grain comparatively. At a meet
ing called by the American Farm Bu-
reau federation in Chicago last week
it was decided that J. R. Howard,
president of the American Farm Blu
reau federation, should appoint a
committee of seventeen. to formulate
a cooperative plan to handle all
grain grown in this section of the
country.
The plan viii be submitted to the
