No Sentiment In Congress- For
Fixed Price or Wheat.

In spite of propaganda, through British
interests, which has reached members OF
the Senate and House committees on agri-
culture and congressman generally. there
will not be a continuation Of the guaTan-
teed price of wheat.
Senator Gronna. Of North Dakota, and
Representative Haugen, of Iowa. who are
chairmen. respectively, of the Senate and
House committees. have noted this propa-
eanda for continuance of the fixed or guar
anteed prices, especially in letters from
Canadian bankers and other large business
interests which have British origin or
connection.
There is no sentiment in Congress for q
wheat price guarantee, and there is a
decided sentiment against it from the
wheat raising districts. IF the price is
fixed, the minimum will be made the maxi
mum, as it was last year" said Chairman
Haugen, of the House committee. The
farmers believed that the guaranteed price
last year kept them from getting better
prices for their wheat. do not believe
that Congress will ever again fix the price
Of wheat"
The feeling among the members is not
to stir up trouble by hardening to the prop
aeanda from foreign sources designed to
curb the farmers. The members Of Con-
dress are strong in the belief that guar
anteed price would check rather than stimu-
late production. The prospect now is that
wheat prices will be high; higher even
than last year. and the wheat growers ex-
pect to profit. They are opposed to a
guaranteed price.
With an election coming on. the mem
beers Of Congress. especially from the aeri'
cultural districts. do not want to cross the
farmers. particularly in the interests Of
foreig ners working for their own advantage
The farmers claim that they lost many
millions, II not billions. through the guar
anteed price last year. The wheat surplus
is pretty well cleaned out. and with {
shortage OF acreage in both winter AM
spring wheat planted the farmers do no
want any minimum price established which
would become a maximum.

Delaware Defeats Equal Suffrage.

Ratification Of the equal suffrage amend
ment was defeated in the lower house Of
the Delaware Legislature last week. The
vote was 23 to 8.
The defeat Of the ratification resolution
dashes to earth the hope Of the suffrage

thirty-sixth State to ratify suffrage and
thus achieve the prestige Of casting the
vote that would give women the right Of

MRS. FISkE COMES
 ID THE JEFFERSON

Theatregoers of Birmingham will Tuesday, October fourtH and fifth, at the Jefferson theatre, of seeing that most brilliant of American actresses, Mrs. Fiske, in Mis- Nelly of N'Orleans," which is said to be her finest achieve ment in high comedy ill recent years,
 The play is from the pen of Laurence Eyre and was first produced in New York, the season before last, where it met with immediate success and en- joyed long run. Last season Mrs. Fiske made q transcontinental tour in the comedy and her present tour of the south will afford the last oppor- tunity to see her in what is truly one of her most notable roles. The scehe es of the play are laid in New Orleans, and Mrs Fiske portrays the whimsical character of a belle of an earlier day, who by restoring about her the atmos- phere of her youth regains the affec- ton of the lover she had lost through a ridiculous quarrel.
 It is safe to say that never before has the romance and charm of life in old New Orleans been so delightfully."- and truthfully transferred to the sta ge as in this comedy
 Mrs Fske appears under the man. agement of Conan and Harris, and un- der the direction of Harrison Grey Fiske. Among the members of the SUD- porting company arc Edward Emery Victor Benoit, Joseph Greene, Ezra Walck, Eva Benton, Marian Berry, Lu Guardia Harling, and Melanie Gordon There will be a special matinee on Tuesday,.

 Such was the declaration of mes merist who was the guest at a house party. The statement brought on a discussion of hynotism and it's powers, uses and abuses and lead to a hynotic demonstration that was followed by a murder committed just sixty minutes before the sun peeped above the ho- rizon.
 About this situation hinges "One Hour Before Dawn" the film drama starring H. B. Warner, that is the screen feature at Loew's Bijou theatre for the weeks opening bill.
 The story is said to be one of thrills, involving deep murder mystery, lead ing the audience to believe the hero did it because 1t knows that he had been commanded to do so while under the Influence of hynotist.

One of the most interesting and re- markable phenomena. about that most interesting and remarkable of artists Geraldine Farrar-whose first appear ance in the history of this big town, on October p, under the management of the Ail-Star Concerts, is creating little short of sensation, is the fact that every time she is photographed the result seems to be an entirely different person.
