unable to stand the strain on his re-
sources, stupendous though they

May Dealings Described
"In the present instance. no one
was attempting a corner. Last win
ter certain spectators thought that
wheat for delivery in May was bar
gain. and they bought Independently
in expectation of an advance. BY
mid May they owned everything in
the public warehouses deliverable on
contracts, and hence what would
have been a natural corner'--that is,
one brought about without manipu
lation-existed. Sellers had con-
tracted to deliver more wheat in Chi
cago during May than the elevators
would hold. In the old days these
shorts would have been compelled to
make a money settlement with the
bulls at prices set by the bulls. Such
squeezes sent many firm on the
financial rocks a generation ago. =
suggestions came from many
sources toward the end of May that
the directors of the board should fix
a settlement price in order to pre-
vent a squeeze, but this was con-
sidered unsound and futile. A con-
tract is a contract and its sacred
ness must be preserved. The con-
tracts to deliver certain quantities
of wheat during May were valid in
struments of commerce.
What the directors of the board
actually did was far better. They
simply declared wheat in cars reg
ular for delivery on contracts: in
other words. they made each car
public warehouse until the emergency
passed. In this way every person
who had made a valid sale for future
delivery. that is, in May. was able TO
deliver the wheat. and those who
bought it received it as per con-
tract.
ALL interests. including that Of the
farmer and the public, were pro-
tected and the price at which the
market closed on the last day OF May
was the fair balance set by condi-
tions of supply and demand the
world over "

One Foot at Home,
One Foot Abroad,
Is Deserter's Ruse

GENEVA, June 7.-(By A. P. MaiL)
A wealthy Frenchman, +. Bertrand,
described as a deserter, has been ar
rested here at a moment when he had
practically one foot on either side of
the Swiss and French frontier line,
in cafe that straddles the border
The cafe is in the village of st.
Julien on the international boundary.
Part of the building is in Switzerland
and part in France.
Early in the war Bertrand settled in
Geneva, where, his accusers aver, he
made a large fortune trading with
Germany. He bought villa and sew
eral automobiles and led a life of
pleasure. He said he was more Ger
man than French and took pleasure
in speaking against France. partic-
ularly in the cafe at st. Julien where,
safe on Swiss territory in one of the
drinking rooms, he could be over
heard and even seen by the French
police in the rooms on the French
side. There thesFrench listened to
his annoying talk but, unable to
catch him on the French side, they
could not arrest him.. Bertrand
boasted that-when there We're no po-
ice about-he could enter France and
return without a passport.
Bertrand, after dining well. crossed
the border by going from the room
on the Swiss side to that on the
French side to greet some friends.
At the instant he passed the line
into France he was .pounced upon by
two French gendarmes. He put UP a
fight, but was quickly .subdued, hand
cuffed and carried away.

pears to have been solved for the
current year at least.
For walking and afternoon wear,
laced Richelieu or elastic sided
shoes seem to be the most popular.
They are carried out generally in
patent leather, varied with suede and
light cloth in the upper parts.
Heels are low and yamps high.
Another shoe that is much favored
is the classy Richelieu ingeniously
cut with mixed leather and suede,
with a low wide heel covered with
suede to match the shoe. There are
also leather heels cubical in shape,
which somewhat recall the French
Louis XIV, but not quite SO exagger-
ated as to height.
For late afternoon wear or for the
more elaborate tailor made suits
there is large variety of leather
and suede court shoes with elaborate
steel buckles. They are replacing
sandals, which the elegantly dressed
women are forsaking. The best ef-
fects are obtained with gray, beige
and black, ornaments with the newt
able steel buckle.
Suede shoes, either with one but
ton or steel buckle, also are in favor
for afternoon wear. They are usu-
ally embroidered with little steel
beads all on one side. The vamp is
very long and the heel is of Louis
XIV. style. Court shoes in black, gray
and maroon satin also are veryNmuch
worn.
Evening shoes also have a tendency
to become much more simple, wheth-
er they are of satin broche or gold
or silver tissue They are simply
trimmed with one button or jeweled
buckle.
Marcel Allemand, one Of the leading
jockeys of French extraction on the
French turf, now doing his military
service with the cavalry unit at Dijon,
wishes Whitsuntide came several
times a year.
Obtaining a three day leave over
the holidays, Allemand Immediately
repaired to the st. Cloud race track,
where he was engaged for three
mounts. The next day at Chantilly
he again rode three mounts, one of
which was the winner. He finished
his leave at ST. Cloud. riding another
winning mount out of three.
Allemand received $500 francs for
his three days work.
During his IS months military serv
ice the jockey will earn e74 francs in
54S days, at so centimes day.
Cabaret dancing in Paris is becom-
ing a problem in uncertain finance
for proprietors as well as customers.
A score OR more of these high tension
night life places have dropped out
of existence during the past few
months, only to be replaced by 9TH
ers offering slightly different thrills
at somewhat higher prices.
The proprietorS say that dancers
will not patronize one place for any
length of time. and consequently they
must charge high prices for a brief
period in order to pay for the cost
of installation and then close when
their places are no longer "a la
mode" ''',s

PARIS. June 17-Premier Poincare
is keenly interested in direct news
Aagc impressions from America and
takes care that every prominent
American who desires to see him
shall have an opportunity of doing
so. He has frequently suggested that
distinguished Americans should call
on him so that he might obtain first
hand information on the situation at
Washington and the varying phases
of public opinion in America toward
France.
The premier has so far advanced
in his ability to speak English that
he now talks quite readily, although
he began to learn the language only
in the early winter of 1918, after
President Wilson's arrival in Paris.
While he is extremely anxious that
Americans should understand France
he feels it is equally the duty of
Frenchmen to inform themselves
about America. -
James w. Gerard, former American
ambassador to Germany: Hugh Wal
lace, former ambassador at Paris,
and Charles II. Sheriff., former
American minister TO Argentina, are
among the prominent Americans who
have been received by the premier
recently.
More Americans than ususal ap-
pear TO be in Europe this year study
ing political and financial condi-
tions, A. w. Atterbury, vice pres
ident of the Pennsylvania railroad,
has just returned TO Paris from pro-
longed inquiries into the economic
conditions of Spain. Italy, Germany
and CZecho- Slovakia.
Clarence NJ. Woolley, president of
the American Radiator company. has
left Paris with several directors of
that company to examine business
conditions in Italy, Austria and Ger
many. The majority of the COM
pany's directors are now in Europe,
and a meeting of the board will be
held in Paris toward the end of this
month. This, so far as known, will
be the first time that the board of
directors of any American company
has ever held meeting in Europe.
David Jayne Hill, former ambas-
sador to Berlin; Maj. Gen. J. G.. Har
bord, Paul d. Cravath and former
United states Senator James d. Phe-
Ian are among the other Americans
who are pursuing inquiries into con-
dHions on the continent, each from
his own standpoint.

From a stream normally 200 to

quarters to one mile wide. The flood
is due to a cloudburst last Mondav.
Those familiar with the lower Rio

all previous overflow marks. Greas-

crops.
