By ROY A. HAYNES United States Prohibition Commits


 Qn yesterdays instalment MT. Haynes began his observations on prominent and respected citizens who were violators of the prohibition laws)
 There comes to mind the case of 15 or 20 of the leading business men of a certain city, reported to have been Victimized by clever swindler posing as high grade bOotlegger. This criminal is reported to have contracted with the business men for the delivery of liquors and received their checks to the extent of about $2, GOO in advance of delivery of his goods. He cashed the checks and departed.
 'Hc started his activities by visit ing d local banker says one account of the incident, and introduced him self as d high class bootlegger serV- ing an exclusive trade. The banker hastened to introduce him to several of his friends, and they in turn Among those who hastened to cash their checks were some of the wealthiest men in the city.
 In these cases. the Niolators were of high social or business preferment. In each case, by example, the Violator encouraged the violation of all law

WHEAT DEVELOPS SUDDEN STRENGTH. AFTER DRIFTING

CHICAGO, August 13.-Highest prices the wheat market has touched since the middle of July were brought about today chiefly through active buying ascribed to a big east ern trader. The close was unsettled at 1Q17zc net advance, with Sep tember s1.01@ @ 1.01A and December s1.049s 41.0412. Corn gained A, oats finished at a shade off Ac up, and provisions at a rise of 15c to S5c.
 Sudden strength in the wheat mar ket developed after prices had dirfted downward for almost an hour The temporary decline was asCribed neaA ly altogether to current news about strained relations betweenn Great Britain and France and about dis turbed conditions in Germany. With francs at new low level and with wheat prices at Liverpool showing q setback bears appeared at first to have an advantage, although selling was checked by talk of a probable shortge of bread wheat this season east of the Rockies.
 When the wheat market once got an u9ward start, however, all the fu- ture, deliveries rose to above $1 bushel for the first time in more than month, But the purchasing which gave values this lift was said to be largely to cover previous pros- pectiVe sales and something of a re- action from the days top level re- suited from selling based on the fact that a Canadian official crop estimate was issued pointing to d yield only 100000 bushels less than last year. On the other hand, many traders here considered the estimate bullish inas- much as the estimate took no account of severe crop damage inflicted since July 31.
 Corn and oats average higher with wheat. Improved crop prospects for corn were more or less offset by pre- diotions of large feeding this season. Provisions reflected decided up- turn in hog values.
