CHICAGO, March 14.-Considerable
strength developed in the wheat mar.
ket today. owing largely to word OF
expert buying at the seaboard. Scanti-
ness of rural offerings tended also to
lift prices. Demand here. however,
was confined almost altogether to
shorts Opening quotations which
varied from unchanged figures to 3
cents higher. with March 1.59 to
16O1s and May Isl to 1887. were
followed by reactions from initial top
figures.
Corn reflected the action Of wheat.
After opening unchanged to = cent
higher. including May at So to 69A,
the market steadied, with part of the
extreme gain lost.
Prices subsequently underwent a
material setback when wheat turned
down grade. The close was weak,
to 4 net lower. with May 67N to 68.
Heavy selling on the part of leading
longs ensued, and wheat prices dropped
re- pidly. Industrial and financial condi-
tions were regarded as the main bear
ish factors. The market closed ner-
vous. 3S to Az net lower: March,
1.55 to 1.5JA and May, 1.461a to 1.46A

call attention Of prospective candidates

his office and register else their naTes
will not appear on the official ballot

70 one will be allowed to register and

Five commissioners are to be selected

Il is conceded that the present incum-
bents will be candidates, as well as the
present mayor for the one at large, but
whether they will have opposition or

The present city officials were all
elected upon platform embracing the
managerial form OF city government

platform, and seemed TO be practically
the unanimous choice of the people
there is little doubt expressed at this
time that they will have any opposition

ILLEGITIMATE SON
LOSES AFTER LONG
LEGAL BATTLE

Cleveland April 22.-The supreme
court decision exempting Henry Anth-
ony Marsh from inheritance of any Of
the Marshall Field estate cut the child
off from share in property variously
valued from 1000, 900 to 100000 600
and ended Il friendly suit in the Field
family to determine the boys standing.
The boy, admittedly the son of Henry
Field and Peggy Marsh, has had GER
tain sums settled upon him by Marshal
Field Ill, however, for his education and
maintenance until he reaches manhood
Henry Field died in a New York hos
pital on July s, 1917. after an operation
for an abcess Of the lungs. He was 21
years old at the time and had just
returned from his honeymoon. Field
was born in England and vas the son
OF Marshall Field II. Marshall Field ILL.,
present head of the Field estate, was
his brother ana he alsC had a sister
Gwendolyn Field.
He was reared in England and edu-
Gated at Eaton, ana was a familiar
figure at hunts, go,f tournaments and
clubs. AT the outbreak of the war, he
became a Red Cross ambulance driver.
It was while in London that he met
Peggy Marsh, then a chorus girl.
Late in 1914 Field was released from
the ambulance service and returned 10
the United States and married Miss
Perkins, niece of one of the Lang
horne sisters Of Virginia, who were in
ternationally famous for their beauty.
After the death of Henry Field, the
claims of Henry Anthony Marsh were
set forth. The Field family never ques-
toned his parentage and joined with
the child's attorneys in bringing about
suit TO determine whether he should
