Foreign Exchange,
CHICAGO GRAIN wARKrr

Chicago, Nov. 2-Reports that Ca4 nadian inter r.or elevators and railroads would cooperate in regulating shin- nents helped to rally the wheat market. today after prices here had fallen to the lowest level since 1915. Closing quotations were unsettled at Is net de- cline to 1-2 cent advance, with Decem- ber 1.o2 to 1.o2 1-4 and May 1.o7 to lo7 Is. Corn gained 1-S61-4 to 3-S; oats lost Is tc IA, and provisions 7n- ished unchanged to ten cents off.
 Notwithstanding the break of six cents yesterday in the price of wheat, spas- modic liquidation continued this morn ing owing more or less to talk current that British grain concern had fail- cd. Besides there was no evidence of any export demand for United States wheat and 1t was estimated that dones- lie hard winter grades were 1 to 5 cents above a working basis ss compared with Canadian. Another bearish factor was s'owness of call for flour. Weakness was only checked when December had descended to within 1-2 cents of s1.oo even. At this juncture. a reaction set in, and bulls made capital of promised falling of in receipts at Winnipeg. The assertion was that curtailment of the Canadian crop movement would reduce hedging pressure here.
 Indications of export business in corn gave comparative frmness to the corn market. Liquidatfng sales forced oats to the lowest prices yet this season. but elevator interests subsequently furnished some support
 Provisions were fairly steady in fine with hogs.

 must work; you little girls. when you are women must remember to pray" | When the formal program was con- cluded the marshal started to enter his car. Then he changed his mind. He
 was tired. and he asked the head of the
 school whether he might not rest a mo-
 ment in the parlor of the school. Waving aside the Count De Cham brun, who has been active S official h. | terpreter, and the immediate staff, the
 marshal went alone to the convent par Tor. He leaned back in q chair and closed his eyes. But the marshal was
