1t has been question for some
time whether the. English Prime
Minister, Lloyd-George, would con-
tinue to receive the support of the
people Of England. He has been Bit
terly attacked from many quarters.
The former Prime Minister, Asouitb.
arraigned him for his Irish policy; he
has been criticised for his attitude to-
ward Russia, Germany and France; la
Dor forces have complained at his rul-
ings. In spite of all this opposition

the members favorable to the Pre-
mier were elected by a large major
ity. 1S1 to 40. Among all the war
statesmen he has held his position
the longest.

The ex-empress of Germany is re-
ported to be failing rapidly and her
death is expected at any time. In
fact, preparations are already being
made for her funeral. 1t was her
desire to return. to her country for
death and burial, but it was not al
lowed. Augusta Victoria has always
been regarded as a fine character.
She is believed to have been against
the recent war, and the result was a
great blow to her. She has been
loyal to the Kaiser and her family.
The breach in good relations between
England and Germany was especial
ly hard on account of her relation
ship to the ruling house of England.

Washington, Feb. 26.-While fed

Although the United States refuses
to accept a mandatory over any part
Of the partially civilized portions Of
the world, as provided by the League
Of Nations, yet she has notified the
secretary of the League Of Nations
that she expects to share equal rights
in such mandatories as any Of the
Allies assume. By that ii is requir-
ed that no special trade privileges
must be given TO the nation holding
the mandate. Not only does such q
policy seem fair to the United States,
but IL will be best for the country Nm
der the mandate also, since the re-
sources of such sections viii be

Recent elections in Germany show
that the majority Socialist party is
to remain in power and that it's
strength has been increased. This
insures a moderate policy as this
party is not so radical and does not
indorse the Bolshevist ideas. The
only party which shows much power
to oppose it is the clerical party,
which is more conservative. This
party has grown stronger in all the
European countries since the war and
reflects the revival of the Church in
fuence. 1t is generally known that
the Catholic hold has become stronger
and even France is seeking a renew
al Of relations with the Pope.

BY recent act the people Of Can
ada are to have the right to a choice
in their Governor-General. This Is
not a free choice, as might at first
appear, but they may select from
three men nominated by the Crown Of
England. The Governor-G General in
Canada corresponds to the King Of
England and has very little power.
The Canadian government, like the
English, makes the cabinet the ex-
ecutive and the Prime Minister the
real source Of power.

A good deal of feeling is being
aroused over the matter of telegraph
concessions in China. This is partly
due to the disposa! of Germany's
cables which were broken during the
war. 1t is also due to the right of
establishing wireless stations to con-
meet with the interior of China, where
no other means Of quick communica-
tions exist. In arrangements so far
made, the United States has felt
somewhat excluded and has no inten-
tion of giving up her rights in
China. This is something that means .
much to our country as well as to
China.

An oil contract between Costa
Rica in Central America and Eng
land has given rise to some anx-
iety. The former country has re-
fused to fulfil its contract and Eng
lish warships have been cruising on
the coast. The United States is in
terested in the matter, because in
case of any act of compulsion on the
part of England, the Monroe Doc
trine would come into play. No
European country can invade any
Latin-American territory or occupy
any land in such countries. The rea-
son for breaking the contract has not

FOREIGN EXCHANGE,
CHICAGo GRAIN MARKFr.

Chicago, June 17.-Torrid weather did good deal today to make wheat prices advance. Closing prices were un- settled, 3-4 to 1-2c net higher with July S131 1-4 to 1.31 1-2 and Septem- Der SPA 1-2 to PA 3-4. Corn finished 3-8 to 3-4 up, and oats gained 1 IA to l 1-2. In provisions in the outcome Wash unchanged to 2c higher.
 Apprehension as to the effect of hot weather on wheat had relation to the spring crop and was intensified by fore casts that abnormally high temperatures would continue several days. Another bullish influence was knowledge that first threshings of the winter crop in Missouri showed disappointing returns. Assertions that seven hundred fifty thou sand bushels had been bought for export by way of the Gulf of Mexico tended also to lift values. Offerings were light until the market had jumped as much as five cents a bushel in some cases. At that level, houses, with eastern connec- tions became free sellers, and reactions ensued. On the breaks, however, de- nand broadened out, with the July delivery displaying particular strength as the day reached close. Bun leaders
 predicted that there would be no ma
 terial accumulation of stacks during July.
 Strength in corn was largely due tc possibilities of a drought scare. Oats
 were somewhat affected by reports of crop deterioration
 Dullness prevailed in the provision trade, and hindered the market from
 sympathizing much with upturns in the 1 value of grain and hogs.

AMERICAN POLO TEAM
 TO PLAY FOR CLIP TO-DAY

London, June 17.-(By The A. P0 America will face England tomorrow in the first of series of polo matches in an endeavor to carry back to the United States the international polo cup, now held by England. The matches will be played on the grounds of the Birmingham club. The second contest will occur on Wednesday next and the third, if neces- sary. on Saturday. The winner of two matches takes the cup.
 The Americans arc placing their re- liance on Louis Stoddard, woh will play in No. 1 position; Thomas c. Hitchcock, No. 2; ]. Watson Webb, No, 3, and De- vereux Milburn captain of the team, at back. There is some doubt as to whether Milburn will be able to take part in the play however, owing to a strained back, and it may be necessary to call on one of the substitutes, c. c. Rumsey and Earl W. Hopping,
 Their English opponents will be Lieu ant-Colonel H. A, Tomkinson, No. 1 i Major F. W. Barret. No. ?; Lord Wode- house, No 8, and Major Vivian LocketL captain, back. The team, with the eX- ception of Lord Wadehouse, is the same that captured the trophy at Meadow brook, Long Island, in 1914. He takes the place on the team formerly occupied by Captain Leslie Che9Fe, who was killed in Turkey during the war.

New Low Records For stocks.


 New York, June 17.-New low rec ords for one to six years were estab- hshed today in every important division of the list, liquidation and short selling continued to force down prices in the stock exchange.
 Some steadiness was manifested at the outset on short covering in Louisville and Nashville, induced by the proposed stock dividend. This was neutralized however, by weakness of Crucible Steel, which forfeited almost points on an overnight dividend cut
 Rallies in speculative favortes failed to hold when [. S. Steel fell 1 IA points 10 73 1-2, the low record since 1915. 9th er steels, as well as railway equipments, motors, shippings, tobaccos, chemicals, food and mail order issues, figured in the further reversal at gross declines of 2 10 , points.
 Oils were confusing, particularly Mex lean Petroleum, with an extreme advance of ? 1-4 points and net loss of 1 1-2. The gain in Louisville & Nashville proved only temporary and all rails en- countered a setback in the last half of the session, Chesapeake & Ohio falling points on further postponement of di- vidend action
 Cashng in for profits gave the list an upward whirl in the last half hour but fresh offerings of long stock soon effect ed another reaction, losses of 1 to almost points prevailing at the unsettled close. Safes amounted to 765, 900 shares.
 The one encouraging feature was the plethora of cal money at 5 1-2 per cent Df the exchange such accommodations were offered at 4 1-2 per cent. All for s.-u exchanges strengthened
 Liberty bonds were mainly lower and sther domestic issues showed mixed changes at the close Among interna. tonals, French municipals and Mexican government bonds were heavy. Tota' sales (par value) amounted to $9,675, ,000
