local elevators filled to Capacity and

D. c. Hubbard Potter, Neb., farmer.

The trip required three days, with
out night travelling, and the total ex-
penses was S22.09, or about 81 cents
bushei. The wheat sold on the
Omaha market for 81 a bushel, which
he said, insured him a good profit

by selling at an elevator in his home
town and allowing for the elevator
profit and freight rates.
The freight rate is II cents a .bushel

TODAY'S MARKET REPORTS

Chicago, Oct 21.AWHEAT-Bears had
some advantage in the wheat market today,
largely as a resulted strained economic
conditions the British coal strike in par
ticular. Leaders on the bear side contend
ed that buying power for all commodities,
including food, was being reduced to a
minimum. A large elevator interest, how
ever, conspicuous of late on the selling
side, reversed its position and helped rally
the market. Opening prices, which ranged
from thel same al yesterdays close to lie
lower, with December S2.0215 to $2.0313 and
March $1.95 to $685., were followed by
moderate general upturns.
Bear pressure increased later and the
market underwent a decided setback. Acute
weakness developed in connection with re-
ports that further spread of the British
strike was imminent. Prices closed unset

GREEK THRONE is ON MARKET
Prince Paul May Refuse Crown-King
Alexander Is Sinking.

Athens, oct 21.-Keen interest in
the question of succession to the Greek
throne should King Alexander's illness
terminate fatally, is being taken by
the people, aItho nothing reliable rela-
tive to the subject is as yet known.
The throne will undoubtedly be
offered to Prince Paul, King Alex
ander's younger brother, but it is al
most a foregone conclusion that the
conditions accompanying the offer will
render it unacceptable.
In case of his refusal, it may be
offered to some foreign prince, and if
he declines the situation may be solved
by the proclamation of the republic.
London, Oct 21.-King Alexander of
Greece was worse at o'clock last
night, with a temperature of 104, the
Greek legation here announced today.

Altho special notices are being sent
out to the members of the Chamber of
Commerce in regard to the mass meet

tail their plan for assisting Topeka in
getting houses enough for the people
who already live here and the people
who want to come here to live.
There is no limit set to the amount
of money which must be raised in To-
peka before the company will start
work here. AS soon as sum of
money which will justify the co-opera-

Kansas Hospital Association VIII Dis
cuss Conditions Today.
The serious shortage of trained
nurses and suggestions for remedying
the condition will be the principal sub
jects for discussion before the annual
meeting of the Kansas Hospital asso-
citation in Topeka today. A quick
remedy for the condition would be a
two-year training course rather than
a three-year course, many physicians
think, while others hold that a two
year course cannot be thoro enough.
Standardization of nurses training is
being urged in all parts of the country.
Both physicians and nurses will at
tend the meeting. A number of super
intendents of hospitals and state insti-
tutions will be present. The meeting
will open at ten o'clock this morning
at the Y. w. G. A, where all meetings
of the day will be held. Lunches will
be served in the Y. w. C. A. breakfast
room, tolb followed by an afternoon
session beginning at two o'clock.
Nearly 100 physicians and nurses are
expected to be present.
On the morning program is an ad-
dress by DR.. George NJ. Gray of Kan
sas City. His subject, Hospital Stan
dardization," is one of the most i'm
portant of the meeting. Some Hos
pital Problems" will be discussed by
DIR. J. T. Axten of Newton, followed
by a round table discussion on hos
pital problems. Miss Ethylen Fergu-
son of Topeka, who was graduated
from the st. Francis hospital training
course, and served as an army nurse,
will read a paper on the subject of
whether the courses of training should
be two or three years. DR.. o. L.. SUIT
ter of Wichita will lead a discussion on

port. Corn prices are down to a point
where it is figured corn is cheaper than

based on "a cents for freight, Is cents for
husking selling and hauling and 3 cents

cents for No. corn, the aggregate charges
of 81 leaves only AZ cents per bushel.
The only thing that can bull oats to any
extent is a large export demand which will
take around 50,OO0,000 bushels, said one of
the oldest oats specialists. Stocks have
accumulated too fast with only a moderate
movement, so that there is nothing but the
low prices on which to buy.
Charters were made yesterday for 500.-

FoRESEE MUCH
PROGRESS UPON
WORK At PARK
Promise Of Good Weather Cheers
Manager Tighe and Keeper
Sulser.

with good weather in prospect
for at least part Of the coming
week, It is thought likely that much
OF the delayed work at Douglas
park can be gotten we'll under way.
The grandstand and bleacher work
has been trified with. the fence Is
being repaired, together with the
clubhouse, but the grounds remain
IN the condition in which they were
left last fall.
The extent OF repairs on the club
house by today was the completion
Of the roof and the hanging of the
door. The interior is being fixed
up and various parts of the lockers
and woodwork which need attention
are coming under the hammer.
Groundkeeper Sulser has been
on the ground since the first
OF this month, but owing to cold
and damp weather the necessary
Job on the ground has been left
practically untouched while the
other parts of the park were not
repaired as they should be.
1t is imperative that as quick a
start as possible be made on the
playing ground, as the batteries
report week after next and they
should have some sort of playing
field TO keep busy on at the time
they arrive.
