CHICAGO PRICES.

Export sales of cash wheat were con-
siderably larger yesterday than they
had been during the preceding few
days. due to buying of 100000 bushels
by Holland and Italy. European coun-
tries arc displaying interest in the
Argentine market. In which prices lower
than those in the United States are
being quoted. Belgium was again
n buyer yesterday in Argentina and
IL is probable that other European coun-
tries also will purchase in that country.
They are holding Off because of the in
decision of the Argentine Congress in
regard 20 n super tax on wheat exports.
Competition with Argentina was one OF
the prime factors in the weakness In the
futures markets. In the past the export
business here has been one of its main
supports. Now that II Is decreasing II
is natural that futures should weaken.
The export flour trade repeated 10000
barrels sold TO Central Europe. but do
mestic trade was dull. Although there
was some talk of inquiry for rye no re-
port business in II was confirmed.

The Late Nathaniel Myers.
To His Work Is Due the Hebrew
Technical School for Girls.

To THE NEW York HERALD: The
death Of my beloved friend Nathaniel
Myers is a great loss to the cournu-
nifty. Mr.. Myers almost single handed
built up a wonderful structure by es-
tablishing the Hebrew Technical School
for Girls. which has been of tremendous
benefit to the welfare Of a large num-
ber of deserving girls whose parents
or guardians are Of moderate means. :
BY the splendid education they re-
ceive In this postgraduate school they
are not only materially benefited but
In addition are improved in character
and refinement. They have the right
example and guidance. material and
ethical. so that when they leave the
school they are greatly improved and
not only able to take care of themselves
but In most cases to help their families
and others who may be dependent upon
them. BY their good example they
families are improved and elevated in
every respect.
The material beneht these girls de-
rive from the work OF Mr.. Myers has
been fully explained. The reporting
graduates OF the school are earning
annually over ss.ooo.ooo but the bene-
fits they receive In the general improve
ment which takes place In them is OF
much greater Importance.
Mr.. Myers was devoted to this cause.
Aside from his interest In the school he
was man OF great intellect and abil-
ity and was interested in all that is
good and noble. He was a great inter-
prefer Of Shakespeare, an ardent ad-
mirer Of Lincoln. an eloquent orator
and altogether ono OF our best citizens.
and withai a man OF great modesty
who did not wish to have his good work
known except In so far as 1t might be
OF benefit to others. The world Is bet
ter for having had Nathaniel Myers in
It. ApoLpH LEwIsoHN.

Finger Prints in Art.

That LEONARDO DA Vrycr actually
painted both canvases entitled THE
Virgin of the Rocks" which are In
the Louvre In Paris aud the Ma.
tional Gallery In London, is the opin.
ion OF the finger print expert OF Scot.
land Yard. Much of the modelling
OF both paintings had been done by
softening the paint with finger and
thumb tips, the whorls Of which are
declared to be clearly defined when
examined with strong glass. I'm
der the direction OF Sir CHARLES
HOLMES the Scotland Yard expert
examined several OF LgoNARpo's
works whose authenticity was un.
questioned. Then he put both the
Louvre Virgin and that OF the Ma
tional Gallery under his glass and
found them to bear Identical thumb
prints.
Thus the critics who have declared
these convases TO be both by the same
rrtist arc justified. while the opinion

Harding's Armament Four.

The shining quality of President
HARDINGs selection of the American
delegates to the international con-
ference on the limitation OF arma'
ments. as THE New YORK HERALD
said OF them on Sunday. is clear to
all eyes. CHARLES EVANS HUGHES,
ELIHu Roor, Senator LODGE and Sen
ator UNDERWOOD, 1t is we'll to repeat,
personify the brain power, the
knowledge. the experience, the states
manship. purpose and example which
can best serve the ideals and the
needs of this country among the great
Powers of the Old World.
The choice of such men to repre-
sent the United States strikingly IL
lustrates the natural capacity of Mr..
HANDING to be national leader who
knows where and how to command
the material for great American un-
dertakings and achievements.
Another circumstance Is notable
about these admirable appointments
by the President. He has re-
stricted the number Of our delegates
to four. PROFESSIONALLY they will
have to assist them In the technical
part OF their work experts in affairs
military. financial, maritime and the
like. But 1t will be this small body
OF trained thinkers, brilliant negoti-
ators and rugged Americans. not a
town meeting of takers. which can
deal in common understanding and
common impulse with the genius
and tho guile that may come from
Europe and Asia.
This designation OF only four men
to assure action instead OF debate on
our part is tribute to the sensible,
practical, effectual gifts Of a Chief
Executive who gets SO many and so
important things done and gets them
done well.

No Theatre Shortage.

1t has been usual at this season
70 hear Of a shortage in theatres.
Accounts of the numerous promising
plays that cannot be performed here
cince there are no quarters in which
to house them may usually be ex-
pected during the early weeks Of
the theatre year.
The existing number OF theatres
has been increased this year by two
that are already available. There
will soon be others. But this sum
mer there Is no cry that there are
lot theatres enough for the good
plays. 1t would be difficult to make
such complaint with two or three
OF the most popular houses now
empty. They are dark because there
are no possible entertainments to
put there. One or two lucky pro.
rrietors have been fortunate enough
to hand over their temples to the
motion pictures.
AS a matter or fact there was
never any time in the history of
amusement enterprises In which
there were more good plays than
there were theatres. There are al.
ways adventurous spectators seek.
ing for an opportunity to try their
luck in this theatre or that. Ambi-
tious actors sometimes secure enough
capital to try to make the world
view their talents as they them
selves view them. Authors are often
able to persuade capitalists to in.
vest in an idea.
In this way there may be created
/: demand for theatres which will
lead to fancied excess OF demand
over supply. But there never were
more good plays waiting for hear.
ing than there we're stages on which
to show them. II any such condition
ever should arise there would be In
the theatres only successes.
