GRAIN PRICES

(Markets by Lamson Bros. G. Co,
212 Union National Bank Building)
CHICAGO. H.. Sept. 11.-Wheat was
irregularly lower largely on account
of persistent selling of May by local
warehouse interests. The decline how
ever was only fractional Absence of
export buying and hedging pressure
from the northwest more than offset
the limited speculative demand. Heavy
general rains and cooler weather re-
suited IN profit taking sales in corn.
and the result was a moderate set
back. In our opinion the change in
the weather will halt the damage but
will not result in Improvement where
damage has already occurred. Sep
TENDER oats maintained a premium
over December, despite an easier tone
in the cash market. Belated hedgers
were believed to be changing over from
September to the later month. Gener-
al complaints are received OF short
age of cars which, with impaired mo-
tive power, will result in forced or
derby marketing of grains for many
months.

POLICE BADGE BIDDER
CHARGES UNFAIRNESS
MarkoUitz Not on List Ap-
proved by WhaIen.

Louis Fl. Markowitz of 1856 Liberty
street before Deputy Commissioner of
Accounts Louden yesterday charged un-
fairness on the part of the Board of
Purchase in letting contracts for badges
for the Police Reserves. In April. he
said he put in bid of 81, .35 for 4,02d
badges. which was the second lowest.
When the samples of the low bidder did
not come up to specifications the order
was not given to the second lowest bid
der. but the contract was readvertised.
This time Markowitz did not get "A
copy Of the specifications because he
was not on the list OF bidders approved
by Commissioner Whalen. Alfred H..
Meehan. assistant secretary of the
Board of Purchase, contended the regu-
lar contract rules did not apply because
the badges were bought not by the city
but from funds raised by police games.
Deputy Commissioner Louden said the
money wa sas much city money as any
other and the regular rules should 1p-
ply.
