BORROW BOTTLES AND ARE FINED S5
Milk Dealers Say Practice Is
 General in This City

Morris Shapiro of 1SS North street and E. Bayer of 146 West street were fined s5 and costs by Judge B. W. filling in police court this morning on the charge of violation of the act concerning the use of registered milk bottles. They were arrested by Officer Thomas J. Fee ney on complaint of Stanley Hol- combs, agent of the Milk Dealers Exchange, and testimony was offer ed that registered bottles of other dealers were used by the accused men.
 Bayer and Shapiro admitted their guilt, but insisted that every other dealer in the city is equally as guilty. Shapiro said the dealers in the north end of the city are being punished while the others are not interfered with.
 Judge filling told Bayer and sha- piro that they have the right to complain if they have proof that other dealers are violating the act. Simply because other dealers have not been arrested does not justify violation of the act by anyone, he said.

 William Montvile aged 2S of 1S3 North street, pleaded not guilty to the charge of assault. Officer Dan- iel Cosgrove arrested him late last night on complaint
 Mrs. Eva Montville, wife of the accused man testified that he struck her and knocked her down.
 Montville testified that his wife has been nagging him.
 Three weeks ago he was laid off at Eisenberg's store after two years employment and has not been able to obtain work since then. She came home from work yesterday and asked him if he had a job yet and when he replied negatively she told him to leave the house as she could live without him. He took her at her word and left.
 Last night he saw her on the street and followed her to, see where she was going. When she saw him she asked him why he was follow ing her. She threatened to put him where he would not be able to fol- low her. he said.
 She seized him and he pushed her away and she fell down. He did not strike her, he said
 In reply to Judge Alling, Mont vile said he and his wife have been married five years and have no children. Judge filling continued

"FOOTLOOSE WIDOWS"
 LYCEUM

A movie program such as is of-
 fered at the Lyceum is difficult to
 surpass for headlining the bill is
 "Footloose Widows" glorious
 farce comedy taken from the popu-
 lar novel of the same name and star
 ring Louise Fazenda, comedienne supreme, and Jacqueline Logan; and
 then comes athletic George Walsh in "The Test of Donald Norton" gripping story of the far north, of making near the northern lights and a supposedly half-breed's fight for recognition as white man.
 "The Amazing Adventures of Mazie" episode also is shown.
 In "Footloose Widows" the Miss les Fazenda and Logan have the roles 1.-two fashionable mannekins who "borrow" elaborate costumes from their employer and dash away to Florida where they hope to win a wealthy husband. Their ''victims" turn out to be fortune hunters like themselves and complications be- |come more complicated when one of |the girls really falls in love with an eligible young man. The climax comes when the real owner of their borrowed finery appears and starts prosecution.
 "The Test of Donald Norton" shows Walsh in new role for him, but it is dramatic and gives full ex- presson to his great physical |prowess. The story has to do with |the half-breed's unceasing struggle Ito prove he is a white man and en- titled to claim as his bride the white girl with whom he has fallen in love.
 For the last half of the week "The Millionaire Cop" and The .odge in the Wilderness will be Featured.

Chicago Produce Market
(By the Associated Press)

Sps -
Accompanied by reports of the most
active demand for flour since. October
last, the price of wheat took new
swing upward today. Quotations on
wheat were firm, I to 1sc net higher,
May new 1:69 to 1895 and July 1.5oa
vance. oats showing ! to &c rist and
provisions unchanged to 10c lower
Highest prices of the day in the
wheat market came in the final hour
to selling on the part of houses with
eastern connections had carried values
down to the lowest level heached here
of late. On the other hand, good
share Of the new flour business re-
ported was for quick shipment.
Considerable evening up for the hol-
iday tomorrow In the wheat market
helped also to lift wheat values just
before the finish, recent sellers turning
to the buying side. Throughout the
higher, with offerings light at times
and with some emphasis being given to
unusual hazards said to be attendant
on speculative sales at present owing
to scantiness of public contract stocks
here and no immediate prospect of an
increase.
Some of today's buying OF wheat re-
suited from the fact that the market
had suffered decline OF IL cents in
little more than a week and that a
rally was being looked for by numer-
Gus traders. Against this was the
circumstance that indications pointed
to larger world shipments this week,
especially from Argentina, whereas ex-
port call for North American wheat
today was only fair.
Corn and oats were affected chiefly
by the action of wheat. Corn offerings
were small.
Liquidating sales of March lard
tended to weaken the provision mar
ket.
