"There are some experiences in our
lives which are overshadowing and
unusual. They make a deep impress
sion upon Our hearts and minds and
we recall them many times in pom
dering over the pleasant occurrences
and the friendly associations which
are formed. This is especially true
when we are permitted to combine
pleasure with business, education
with entertainment and endeavor
with accomplishment.
"TOday all these sanguine features
obtain and we find ourselves happily
situated in this city by the sea, con-
sidering and discussing the problems
Of today and looking forward to the
happenings Of tomorrow. When | re-

Senate to Probe Cam
paign Expenditures
Especial to The LEADER

D REPRESENTATIVE WILLIAM S.
~ VARE'S victory in the Pennsyl-
vania Republican senatorial primaries
was the weeks most notable event In
the United States, because, as viewed
by Mr.. Ware himself and a great many
other people, it was victory for the
cause of modification of the Volstead
act rather than for Mr.. Ware person
ally. True, the combined votes of Vares
rivals, Senator Pepper and Governor
Pinchot, exceeded that Of Ware by
about 10000, and both of them are
pronounced drys. But Vare's election,
If he wins in November means one
more wet vote in the senate; and ac-
cOrding to many political observers
the Pennsylvania vote makes 1t GER
tain that the beer and light wine is
sue will be leading issue In the con-
gressional elections this year. Party
lines will not be closely observed in
Pennsylvania Illinois, Massachusetts
and some other states, 1t Is predicted.
In the keystone state Wares Demo
cratic opponent will be William B.
Wilson, former secretary Of labor,
nominated without opposition. He Is
a dry. Governor PinchOt may decide
to lead bolt Of dry Republicans and
run independently, and if he does, the
Democrats think they have chance
to win In that overwhelmingly Repub
lican state. Anyhow, the drys declare
they will not support Ware, though
Senator Pepper asserts he will stand
by the party's choice.
D ENNSYLVANIA'S primaries had
L something more than an echo in
the senate chamber. Indeed, there was
a veritable explosion there, for Sena-
tor Reed Of Missouri took advantage
of the published stories Of vast ex-
penditures on behalf of certain Of the
Republican candidates and brought
forward again his resolution for In
vestigation Of primary campaign ex-
penditures, first offered during the
April contest in Illinois. He made a
red hot speech In support of it, and
was answered by Senator Reed of
Pennsylvania, who tried to defend the
fair name of his state. The affair was
embarrassing especially to those SEN
ators who come up for reelection In
the fall. The vote to take up the
resolution for consideration was 40 to
"a, the nays being I'll Republicans.
When the vote on adoption was taken
1t revealed some sudden and rather
panicky switching. Fourteen more Re-
publicans joined the Democrats in
voting aye, and seven G. o. P. men
ducked out Of the chamber to avoid
being recorded. The IA were:
Butler, Cameron, Cummins, Curtis,
Dale, Gooding, Harreld, Jones of
Washington, McMaster, Pine, Stan
field, Weller, Williams and Willis. The
seven who fed were: Capper Deneen,
Keyes, Reed Of Pennsylvania, Watson,
Norbeck and Robinson of Indiana,
The vote was 80 to 13.
Comment by Reed Of Missouri was
characteristic:
"The fact is that "a of you voted
against taking up this resolution, and
21 of you, and am going to drop into
the ernacular-welched inside of 7A
minutes. 1t is remarkable

GRAIN MARKET
(By Dispatch A. P. Mirol

CHICAGO, Feb. 6.-Indications that
exporters are holding back from pur-
chases of North American wheat had
much to do with price setbacks which
were witnessed here today. Resellers
abroad were reported to be offering
North American wheat at below q
replacement basis. Chicago closing
quotations on wheat were easy at
a to 1 4 cent net decline, May (new)
1741A to 1745s and July 1895 to 1894
with corn 1s to " cent down, oats
a to " cent off and provisions show
ing 10 to 25 cents decline. Speculative
selling of future deliveries of wheat
became chiefly active here in the last
part of the day and after the market
had scored an early advance. In
addition to the bearish influence OF
disappointment over signs of poor
export demand, there was further
handicap from rather extensive sales
on the part of holders. This class of
selling was variously construed
partly as profit taking and partly as
of a liquidating character. One Of
the reasons, too, for the late selling
will be the fact that only moderate
reduction in the domestic visible sup
ply total on Monday was looked for.
Pressure of offerings from wheat
traders, who were trying to make
sales here simultaneously with pur
chases either at Winnipeg or Mime
apolis contributed to weakness of the
Chicago market as the day drew to
an end. Earlier, the course of values
here was upward owing largely to
new upturns in quotations in Liver
pool, smallness of supplies afloat in
Europe and dwindling of farm mar
ketings in Canada The Liverpool
advance was considerably more than
had been figured here as due. Be,
sides, Mondays foreign statistics We're
expected to be bullish. All such cir
cumstances, however, were virtually
lost sight of at the close.
Fairly liberal receipts of corn act
ed as a weight on the corn market
and also on oats.
Provisions were responsive to the
action of hog values.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

NEW YORK, Feb. 6.-Chief finan-
cial interest this week centered in
the announcement by the New York
stock exchange, after the close Of
business today that stock and bond
collateral loans of members totaled
SO, 13,174,194 or about $1,000,000, 900
above conservative estimates. It's eff
feet on securities prices will be
awaited with widespread interest at
the opening of Mondays markets.
Another interesting development of
the week was that the control of the
Associated Oil company had been ac-
quired by Blair and company, Inc,
under the Chase Securities company
at a price of $50 cash a share for a
Large block of the stock. The com
pany, which is the second largest
producer in California, will eventually
be merged with some other company

vealed.

up of speculative accounts in antici-
patton of the publication of the stock
exchange figures on brokers' loans.

pointed out that the total constituted
less than per. cent of the total mar
ket value of securities listed.

offerings were well absorbed, and in
most cases, the net losses were limit
ed to fractions.

! controlling interest in California
Packing, the stock of the latter clos
ed three-fourths of point lower at
