WILSON PROBES
DEALS in WHEAT
President Asks Governor of Kan
sas if He Can Furnish
Evidence.
TO PROBE BOARD OF TRADE
Tells Allen to Forward information
He Has Tending to Indicate Decline
In Prices Was Due to Un-
fair Practices.

Washington, Oct. 18-President Will
son has requested Governor Allen of
Kansas to forward to the federal trade
commission any information he has
tending to Indicate that the recent
decline in wheat prices was due to
unfair practices or competition, or to
other artificial causes.
A letter to this effect sent by Secre-
tary Tumulty was in answer to many
appeals for government action looking
to an embargo on Canadian wheat.
These were referred some time ago
to the commission and the Department
of Agriculture.
Mr.. Tumulty's letter to Governor
Allen said:
''The President has received your
telegram of October with reference
to the wheat situation, and has re-
ceived a number of others Of similar
tenor.
He fully recognizes the Importance
of the question you raise, and he has.
therefore, requested the federal trade
commission and the Department OF
Agriculture to look into the matter
at the earliest possible moment, with
view to determine what, if anything.
can properly be done.
In the meantime he will appreciate
it if you will be good enough to for
ward to the federal trade commission
any information in your possession,
which, in your opinion, tends to indi-
cate that the recent decline in wheat
prices is due to unfair practices or
competition, or to other artificial
causes"
although the agricultural confer
.ence, held here for the purpose Ct OBJ
tanning more liberal credits for farm
ers, had concluded it's sessions, a COM
mittee remained in Washington await
ing announcement of the future credit
policy of the federal reserve banks.
A statement covering the whole cred
it situation was being prepared by the
federal reserve board and its agents,
in conference here, and it was expected
that it would be made public immedi-
ately..
On the committee which is looking
after the interests of farmers are rep
resentatives of each of the 80 agricul-
tural commodities represented at the
convention.
Some members of the committee are
in favor of delegating representatives
to confer with the American Bankers
association at its convention here next
week in case the forthcoming policy
of the reserve banks is considered I'M
favorable to the farmers.

HANG 8 IN CHICAGO
Members of Bandit Gang and
Wife Slayer Executed.
Italian sobs on scaffoId and Pleads
With Executioners to Let Him Go
Several Murderers Reprieved.

Chicago, Oct. 16.-Frank CampiOne,
a youthful member of the notorious
Cardinella bandit gang, and John Hen
ry Reese, Pullman porter, who killed
his wife with Ratchet, were execut-
ed on Thursday at one pull of the
hangman's lever in the county Jail.
The young Italian sobbed as the
trap was sprung. The negro was
calm.
'I'm going to my rest and TIL find
peace" was his only statement. Al
mighty God will take care of me-
Campione's shrieks as he was bound
aroused the prisoners through the jail.
AS the trap fell they shouted:
"Goodby, joe"
Two guards had to support Cam
phone to the gallows While the equip
ment of execution was being adjusted
he pleaded. 'let me go, let me go" and
he was crying when the trap was
sprung. The execution was accom-
plished without delays.
Others of the condemned 13 were
granted stays of reprieves in the last
few weeks.
Before Frank Zagar, twenty-one-
year-old murderer of two, went to the
gallows Friday, bitterly cursing socie-
ty, he said:
Il will get justice when cross the
border to the other world"
He crossed the lzEfder at 8:17
o'clock, according to the jailer's watch.
He died on the same gallows where
the crimes of Frank Campione and
John Henry Reese were expiated
Thursday
Zagar, when he went to trial on May
/ of this year, took the witness stand
before Judge SABBATH and surprised
the court by announcing that he had
committed two, not one, murders. He
said he needed spending money and
chose this manner of getting it.
Where were you on the night of
April Is when Polidaris Serdakis was
killed and Spiris Kalzouros was
wounded?" the judge asked.
II was right there in Burnham," Ia
gar answered And I bumped Serda-
kis off and shot his friend. And
what's more, Ttcroaked another fellow
