CHICAGO BOARD OF TRADE.

Chicago, H., Oct. 13.-Fresh
strength developed in wheat toda'
largely as a result of farmers agi-
tation for higher prices and owing
to word OF serious adverse crop
conditions in India. The close was
nervous llac to 2Ac net higher
with December $2.O91a to $2.10A
and March $2.05 y to $2,06.
At first the wheat market had
a downward tendency ascribed to
decline OF values yesterday in the
northwest. Soon. however, renewal
of builish sentiment took strong
hold on many traders and through
out the remainder of the session
sellers were at disadvantage. Esti-
mates, meanwhile, were current
that domestic purchasers were
holding between 60 and 20 per cent
of their wheat. In some quarters
the inference was drawn that India
had been eliminated as a large ex-
porter this season.
Corn and oats averaged higher
with wheat. Country offerings
were light.
Provisions were governed more
or less by the action of grain. Ex-
port sales of lard counted as
bullish influence.
Closing prices:
Wheat-Dec,, $2.091a; March,
$2,0534
Corn-Dec., 6%c; May. 9O%c.
Oats--Dec., 56Ac; May, 60%c.
Pork--Oct., $500; Nov, $4,000.
Lard-Nov., 1890; Jan, $685..
Ribs-Oct., $500; Jan. $3.50.

American peace delegation the presidents word
follows:
How can a power like the United States
for example, and ! speak for no other
after signing the treaty, if it contains elements
which they do not believe will be permanent,
80 5000 miles away across the and report
its people that it has made a settlement Of
the peace of the world? II cannot do so. And
vet there underes all of these transactions
THE EXPECTATION ON THE PART, FOR
EXAMPLE, OF RUMANIA, AND OF
CzECHO- SLOVAKIA AND OF SERBIA,
THAT If ANY COVENANTS. or THIS SET
ELEMENT ARE NOT OBSERVED THE
UNITED STATES WILL SEND HER ARM
les AND HER NAVIES TO SEE THAT
THEY ARE OBSERVED" g%...
1t can readily be seen that there is vital diff
ference between these two statements. The first
clearly conveys the idea that the president prom.
ised American military aid while the other as clear
ly indicates that the three Balkan states WOULT
EXPECT that such aid be given, without committing
the United States as to what it would do regardine
such expectations
Certain narrow partisans are trying to make
political capital against President Wilson as this
result of Spencers statement but up to date the
senator has failed to make out a case.
While the journal does not agree with President
Wilson's policies, it is DESTROYS of being fair.
The present administration does not have to be
misQuoted to be defeated.

Sammie brought me such lovely
colored autumn leaves in a bag
that | decided we would have no
more school today, but would take
walk in the woods" spoke the
lady mouse teacher. "Wasn't it
good of them to bring me the love-
ly leaves, Uncle Wiggily?" she
ased
Yes, indeed answered the bun
ny. and he winked one eye at the
three animal boys.
So that's how the trick was not
played on the lady mouse teacher,
and how Uncle Wiggily with the
stickery burrs drove away the bear.
And if the ironing board doesn'
slide down the. cellar stairs all by
itself and bump its nose into the

about Uncle Wiggily and the

GUARDING AGAINST FIRE
inspectors Pleased With the Condi
tions Disclosed-Will Continue
the Protection Campaign.

Frank +. Wagner. chief of the fire
department. and Fire Marshal George
s. Watson are pleased with the result
of the early inspection of apartment
houses in the fire protection campaign
started several days ago. With very
few exceptions. it is stated. the in
spectors found conditions to be just
what was desired In most of the
buildings there was no waste paper
found in places where fire was likely
to occur and in only a very few in
stances were accumulationS of ashes
found.
ProprietoI,s or managers of houses
in which trash was found Were given
notice to get rid of the trash within
hours. and, 1t is stated.
the notices were promptly complied
with.
THE splendid conditions found by
the inspectors" said the fire marshal.
indicate that owners are interested
in the campaign and are doing what
they can to make il a success.
The fire marshal said he thought in
auguration of the campaign had spurred
a number of owners to action. He said
regulations will result in fewer apart
ment house fires.
1t is the intention of officials of the
fire department to extend the inSpec-
tions to buildings other than apartment
houses in the near fu'u"e. The frequent
inspections, it is believed, will be a
means of reducing fire danger in all
large structures in the CITY Every
business place will be visited as soon
AS the inspectors are able to reach Them
it is stated. and prosecutions will be
instituted should owners refuse to clear
infammab'e material from their
premises.
