With Canada.

washington, Feb. 28.-The senate
adopted the Underwood resolutions to
create a commission to negotiate with
Canada regarding modification of en-
bargoes on wood pulp and print paper.
On motion of Senator Mcclellan,
Tennessee, the senate amended the
resolution to cover all classes of paper
and news print.
Senator King, Utah, asked if nego-
tiations could not be carried on thru
the state department.
Underwood replied that his pro-
posed commission would offer a more
direct channel.
Senator Kirby, Arkansas, declared
the state department at his request
recently induced Canada to lift the
embargo on newsprint so that a news
paper in his state could obtain ship
ment.
why couldn't the state department
do this in all cases." Kirby asked.
II don't see the necessity of appro-
priating $4,000 for special commits
SION"
Senator Hitchcock replied that Can
ada is considering establishment of
her own diplomatic agency in the
United States and that she might pre-
fer dealing direct with a special COM
mission rather than thru the British
embassy and the state depa rtment.

THIN ICE is FATAL
Marguerite Simmons, Age 3, Drowned
in Shunganunga Creek.

Marguerite Ellen, 3-year-old daugh-
ter of Mr.. and Mrs. W. B. Simmons,
S13 East Eighth street, was drowned
in Shunganunga creek Friday after
noon when she broke thru the thin
ice.
She had been in the water nearly
fifteen minutes and the combined ef-
forts of DR.. o. F. Narcotic, DR..
Charles Hammond and DR.. J. H.
O'Connen, who responded to the call,
could not save her.
The fact that the city pulmotor is
out of repair cost the little girls life,
the parents believe. She was playing
in a pile of sand in the backyard of
the Simmons home. When Simmons
returned from a nearby grocery store,
the child was missing. The father
went to the creek and. noticing a hole
in the ice investigated. The child's
body was found in three feet of wa
ter.
Simmons Immediately calle the
fire department for the pulmotor. He
was told it was out of repair; that it
had not been in working order for six
months. When the machine was pur-
chased it was reputed to save the lives
of persons who, in ordinary cases. had
not been dead more than one hour.
The little girl was the only daughter
of Mr.. and Mrs. Simmons.

Chicago Weekly Grain and Provision..

Chicago. Feb. 2S.-Unusual scarcity of
corn here with the winter crop movement
at an end has given much impetus this
week to price upturns in the corn market.
Compared with week ago, corn quotations
this morning varied from 1Sc off to AZ C
advance. Oats were unchanged to %Q1sc
higher. Provisions down Zoe to Toe At
times all other considerations in regard to
corn were eclipsed by the fact that receipts
continued scanty ana that no big accumula-
ton in Chicago or any of the leading
terminals was now expected. Spectators
who had sold corn heavily account of
weakness in sterling exchange and owing
to bearish opinions about the economic
outlook were forced to cover on a rising
market. Withdrawal of an exchange rule
that no individual interest in the market
should exceed 100000 bushels, failed to
stop advance, which was further emphasized
by official reports of serious damage to
winter wheat. Later, however something Of
reaction took place because of gossip that
the upturns in values had perhaps been
great enough to dislodge rural holdings.
Oats were governed by the action of corn.
Decreased employment at the packing
houses was apparently significant of the
slowness of trade in provisions.

was shown by investment shares. Low

riers mounted to new high prices for the

Liberty bonds and victory notes reflected
further pressure.
