! Chicago, July 15.-Re-opening
of future delivery wheat business
today attracted numerous visitors
TO the Chicago board of trade. but
as a spectacle it was all over in a
couple Of minutes
The big trading hall on change
was exc ptionally crowded to wit
ness the fresh start of the business
after Il stoppage of nearly three
years or account of war conditions.
Everybody of consequence in the
gain trade of Chicago appeared to
\ b. present most of them on tip
toe to see the initial scramble Of
brokers' competing to buy and sell
wheat in the method that for
years had largely governed the
value of al breadstuffs, foreign as
wen as domestic The scramble
came in a twinkling and the famil-
lar old-time uproar of the pit joined
with vigor the din from the other
pits.
Turmoil in the wheat crowd
proved BRIEF, however, for most of
the brokers soon troOped into the
corn. oats and provision pits,
Heavy margins necessary to cover
possible violent fluctuations had
apparently checked any big volume
of trading. Price changes during
the day were within ordinary limits,
with December wheat, the prfnci-
pal option, opening at S2.72 to
$2.T5, somewhat lower than had
been generally expected, and clos.
ing weak at $2.70h, influenced
more or less by weather conditions
likely to avert crop damage from
black rust.
Professor j. e. Boyle, of Cornell
university, formerly with the bu-
reau of markets, United States de-
partment of agriculture, who is
making a study of the marketing Of
grains, watched the trading
throughout the day
What impressed me was the
narrow range of prices" professo?
Boyle said, land the fact that
country elevators resumed hedging
their wheat almost as if there had
never been an Interruption.
Some country elevators, when there
was no trading of wheat for future
delivery, declined to buy from the
farmers as they did not know what
price the wheat would bring by
the time it reached the central
markets. Now that sales may be
made in the open market at any

KfTCH|N IS M|NOR|-
NLEADER IN HOUSE
REPRESENTATIVES
If he Should Decide Not to Take
This Strenuous Position Gar
ner of Texas Will Probably
Be Chosen
A MAN IS NEEDED

Nov. 9.-With the retirement Of the
Democratic leader, Champ Clark
from the next House Of Represen-
tatives through his defeat in last
weeks elections, custom and usage
would require that Claude Kit
chin, of North Carolina, be plac-
ed in control Of the minority.
while Kitchin is the logical selec
ton for the minority, some OF
his intimate friends, however,
believe he will be disinclined to
assume the responsibility and
hard work He broke down at
the conclusion of a speech in the
last ,ession, suffering from a
stroke Of paralysis. John n.
Garner, Of Texas, probably will
be chosen if Kitchin declines.
Garner has proven his worth as
a leader on several occasions
when he was called upon to\take
charge Of things in the thick of
a parliamentary battle, and he
would be no novice if chosen.
The Democrats will require a
leader capable Of taking advan-
tage Of every opportunity. THE
tremendous Republican member
ship will make it possible for the
majority to ignore the minority
entirely in making quorum.
Even with several Of their own
number absent the Republicans
can control the House, as the
Democrats will not be able to fill
lbuster by remaining away from
,he session.
Democrats also are in. for some
hard work if they are to make
tnemSeIVeS felt III the committees
According to the latest figures
only 1873 minority members have
been selected. There are 63
committees, all told, 20 of them,
perhaps, Of real Importance. IF
the minority is to have efficient
representation, men Of experien-
ce will have to undertake heavier
burdens than in the past. It
will be some task for Democratic
leaders to find such men to sit in
these "watch towers y where
they can see the development Of
rarty policies and participate in
framing legislation.
