BUILDING COM.
 DEFIES COUNCIL
(Continued from First Page.)

the building commission shall pro- visionally deny the application for the permit.
 Any person aggrieved by such denial in such case may appeal within five days to the common council of the city which shall speed fly hear the same and report to the building commission whether or not the said objection of the property owners was reasonable and proper, etc."
 Pointing to this ordinance, the building commission argues that only in case of denial of a permit can the council be called upon to sit as A court. The Naples and Lee permits were not denied. and the request for a public hearing came for persons other than appli- cants for permits.
 Had it not been for the fact that there is an appeal to the city court pending, work would probably have been started on the two houses in spite of the common councils wishes, it is said. since the appli- cants are reported ts share the opinion Of building commissioners that the common councils hearing and action was of no effect.

 May delivery of wheat fell to sl.fo l-2' the lowest point in many months, ''""'
 Heavy calls for additional ,urds to protect brokerage houses from possibility of leases incident to big nuctuations compelled many holders or wheat today to make sacrifice sales. This intensified the weakness or the market, already wagering as result of selling in which foreign CTS were conspicuous.
 All grain prices took a sensatlo,aI uownward turn here today soon aft CT trading began. Wheat led the way with fresh loss of 6 1-2c A bush el. Efforts to stop a new stand to sell failed until May wheat had faI- len to 1.4o 1-2. Then a reaction of two cents a bushel look place, Big overnight margin calls to protect brokerage houses did much to bring about today's selling and three were also disturbing reports afloat as to likelihood of financial difficulties fin European countries. Chicago open ing prices. which ranged from 1-2c decline to 1c advance, May 14s to14s and July 136 to 1S7. were followed by many swift changes within limits of about Sc and then by a plunge to far below yesterdays finish.
 Corn, oats and provisions went down simultaneously with wheat. Selling out to stop losses on the part of owners of corn and oats was general in the face of unusual lack of demand from buyers. Corn fre- quently dropped 1-2c between trad es. After opening unchanged to 1-2c off, May 107 to 107 t-2, the corn market tumbled to 1o2 1-2. Max a break of five cents, and then reacted about 2c.
 Oats started at 5.sc lower to 1-4c advance, May 40 3-4 to 4t 1-2 and later touched 59.
 Provisions showed losses of nearly soc in some cases. May lard de- scended to 1850 and then rallied to l5.75.
