CHICAGO. September 1s.-War news
resulted in a spectacular advance to-
day in the wheat market. Prices made
a sudden jump of more than 4 cents
a bushel in the early dealing and the
market showed broad activity. Big
shipment to Europe were reported.
Speculative traders who have been
persistent sellers of late became
urgent buyers. The opening which
varied from y to IL higher, with De
cember, 1.0eK TO 1.02A. and May
l-UO1S TO Luz, was lOilOWcu US iASS
which was unchecked until December
touches Los, after which something of
a reaction ensued.
Corn and oats went upward with
wheat. After opening Y to ks higher.
December 57A to 5S. the corn market
scored moderate additional gains.
Oats started Il to u. December 35k
to 36, and later continued to ascend.
Provisions shared the tendency OF
grains toward higher prices.

COTTON MARKETS.

NEW YORK, September 1s.-The
cotton market was unsettled by easier
Liverpool cables and uneasiness over
the near eastern situation at the open
a decline of IS to IS points and active
months sold 33 to 81 points net lower
during the early trading with Decem-
Der selling OF to 21.0S under liquida-
ton by recent buyers. while there
was also considerable selling by the
south. New Orleans and trade inter-
ests were buyers on a scale down and
there was probably some scattered
local buying. The early trade market
appeared to be dominated by the Tor
eign news. Liverpool reported poor
trade demand with speculative sup
port restricted by unfavorable politi.
cal conditions.
Some stop orders were uncovered
and the break extended to 2l.o2 for
December. At this figure, however;
there appeared to be more demand
and the market was steadier around
midday on covering with December
ruling around 21.o7, or about points
up from the lowest. Trade interests
were reported good buyers on the de-
cline and there was scattered buying
on belief that many OF the contracts
sold recently had gone into strong
hands.

Chattanooga, July 5.-The Duck town Sulphur, Copper and Iron com pany, Ltd, of Ducktown, Tenn, to- district court here seeking to en- join the merger of the Tennessee River Power company and the Chat tanooga and Tennessee River Power company and subsidiaries under one organization.
 Some time ago the Tennessee Elec- tric Power company was organized to take over the two utility com panies and approval of the merger is now being sought here and in other cities in Tennessee, where the companies operate.
 The bill charges that if the mer- ger is consummated, 1t would mean the doom of hydro electric power in middle and eastern Tennessee and the citation of 8 trust so gigantic and powerful financially, economi- cally and politically as substantially and seriously to burden unduly the hundreds of thousands of citizens of the state who are consumers of cleo tric power"
 The companies affected by the fn- junction own the Chattanooga Rail- way and Light company. the Nash vile Street Railway company, and power plants at Parksville and Hales Bar, Tenn, and are controlled by the Brady and Clarke interests.

Europe Seems to Be Demoralized, Judging
 By Exchange Trend
By Associated Presa

New York, July 5.-Excepting Brit lsh exchange which showed pro- nounced strength, quotations for in- ternational currencies in this mar ket today reflected acute demoraliza- ton in European political and eco homie conditions. French. Italian and Belgian bills were from 10 to 20 points under Mondays closing prices and mixed gains and recessions in Dutch, Scandinavian. Swiss and Span ish rates were so confusing as to in- dicate urgent selling on the one hand and speculative covering on the other.
 German marks repeated their re- cent low record, falling to the level of 100 for 23 cents, with very feeble recovery after the close of the mar ket.
 Of the lesser remittances, the Greek rate became more reactionary, losing almost points at 2.70 per drachma. but making up the greater part of its loss later.
 As usual, there were no surface de- velopments to explain the shrinkage of European currencies, but dealers in exchange were of the opinion that no relief or stabilization was likely pending definite adjustment of repa- rations claims against Germany.

STRIKERS TAKE
 CHARGE OF TOWN
Nonunion Men Taken From Shops and Told to
 Beat It7
By Associated Pres,

Slater, Mo, July 5.-Striking shop men, comprising between 60 and 70 per cent of this towns population and including city officials. held the Chicago and Alton railroad shops here tonight and patrolled the town. After driving IS strike-breakers from the shops today, taking them to the edge of the town and telling them to beat it." the strike sympa- thizers found 10 more tonight hiding in a foremans car in the railroad yards. and placed them on Chicago and Alton train number 10 for Chi cago.
 All trains passing through Slater tonight were searched for strike breakers. A force or I50 to 200 strik- CTS held the station platform and others were posted at various parts of the yards. A deadline had been established around the railroad shops for strangers.
 Thomas J. Gaullln, mayor of Slater, clerk in the shops. said that, as far as he knew, there had been no vio- lence. But he admitted he had not been present and that he heard that some of the strike breakers had been "cussed around little."
 Wore Bandage
 One of the strike breakers, deport- ed tonight, wore a bandage wrapped around his head as he was led on board the Chicago train. Union men said he had fallen Into one of the repair pits because of excitement when he saw the strikers enter the shops.
 Leo Winkler, head of the shop mems union, said there had been no violence.
 The mayor said railroad officials had asked him today for special or ficers to protect property, but that he had refused to act because that would anticipate trouble and he did not believe there was going to be any violence.
 P Butts, the town marshall, untli four years ago an employe in the shops, admitted arresting a strike- breaker today and later releasing the man.
 The sheriff told the Associated Press correspondent that he would not be able to control the situation should any trouble develop.
 There is talk tonight in the streets of Slater, among union men, indicat ing that violence Is sure to follow any attempt by the railroad to oper- ate it's shops. All are agreed that operation will not be allowed.
 The townspeople say 1t will be the railroads fault if strike breakers are D1ougue Tn to run the shops and trou- ble develops.
