SEATTLE, Wash, June S.-The
largest city ever to come under the
rule of a woman made it's transition
from male guidance Monday as Mrs.
Bertha Landes took office as mayor.
The police force, whose alleged COR
ruption was made the issue of Mrs.
Landes' campaign, was the first to
bend to the woman mayors will
While Mrs. Landes went through
the formalities Of taking over the
reins of the city her newly-appointed
police chief, Capt. w. III. Searling,
was busy recognizing the force. She
had named him to bring about "a
cleanup" and she watched with sat
lsfaction while he leaped into the
task Of putting more strength into
the arm of the law
Gold Braids Transferred

George Comstock, who had been per-
mitted to serve under the old admin
stration while facing liquor .conspir-
acy indictments, were left unas-
signed in the new order Of things.
Mrs. Landes was ready to go to
work on the first day, but she didn't
have much chance.
She sat down at the mayors desk
and delivered her message to the city
council by way of formality, but
there was too much hub-bub to per-
NIT her to take up routine matters
So she smiled and good-naturedly
put off serious things while she
posed for camera men, greeted
friends, opened many messages,
smelled the fragrance of many beau
tiful bouquets and shook hands.
She's Satisfied
But Mrs. Landes was satisfied
with the days results and to corners

she said:

I'm not promising 100 per cent

IT am facing my new work with
enthusiasm. and with a deep beside

1.-THE problem of law enforcement,
which has been a more or less vex-
atious one, is now in safe hands, I
believe. I am promising you that
your new chief Of police will make
an honest and vigorous attempt to
raise the standard of the perform
ance of our police department very
materially"
Mrs. Landes has been in politics
only four years. She was elected to

Democratic convention in New York.
She fired the chief of police and

Now she is having her own way
with the police department-and she
has shown that her mind hasn't
changed much.

GRAIN MARKET.

| CHICAGO, Nov. 30.-(P)-Heavy SELL
! ing in which houses with eastern. con-
nections took the lead carried wheat
values decidedly downgrade today at
the last The selling was more or less
! associated with reports that Argentine
| wheat abroad is underselling Cana
dian. Chicago closing quotations on
wheat were weak, 3s cent to rs cents
net lower, corn unchanged to Il cent
| up, oats unchanged to B cent off, and
provisions unchanged to rise of 81
cents. Announcement that world stocks
of wheat showed 2,126,O0O bushels in
crease tended to emphasize the. down
ward course of the wheat market as
the day drew to an end. The worlds
available supply is now 244,225,000
bushels, against 1876, 900 last year.
Slackness of export demand for wheat
from North American counted also as
a bearish influence, more than offset-
ting temporary rallies which resulted
from reports of widespread wet
weather prevailing in Argentina. Be-
sides, fairly large deliveries are ex-
pected on December contracts tomor-
row.
AS against eports of less favorable
crop conditions in Argentina, it was
pointed out here that the wheat crop
of Buenos Aires province, the country's
largest producing area, is mostly in
the milk stage as yet. Damage by
rain would therefore be improbable
unless the downpours were persistent.
The fact that dry weather in the pres
ent havest region further north is es
sential failed, however, to give sus-
tanned strength to, wheat values here,
and so, likewise. did word of cold and
snow in Canada likely to slow up the
wheat movement form the interior.
With only moderate deliveries of
corn on December contracts here
looked for tomorrow, the corn market
showed firm undertone. Oats were
easier, affected by an outlook that to-
morrows deliveries will be of liberal
volume.
Provisions tended upward in lire
with action of the hog market.

Bill Carrigan Of Lewiston, Maine,
manager of the Boston Red Sox in the
heyday Of their championship form
before the World war; today was again
named manager of his old club on Il
two-year contract to succeed Lee Fohl,
resigned.
President Bob Quinn made the an
nouncement after a five minute con-
ference with Carrigan at Fenway park
today and, although no salary was
mentioned it was understood that the

offered Boston manager
Carrgan reached the height of his
first stay in fast company in 1915 and
1916, when he piloted the Sox to sue
cessve worlds championships over the
Phillies and the Brooklyn Dodgers. 1t
was during this period that he de-
veloped and handled such stars as
Ruth, Cary Mays Dutch Leonard, Joe
Wood, Ray Collins, Everett Scott and
the famous combine of Lewis, Speaker
and Hooper, often referred to as the
greatest outfield organized baseball
ever saw.
Although he is returning to the big
leagues at the age of 43, he was called
"the original boy manager" when he
succeeded Jake Stahl as pilot Of the
Red Sox in .1913.
One of the richest men in baseball
when he retired in 1916, Carrigan be-
came increasingly well to do in his
home town of Lewiston in banking
and theatrical agency managing. He
retired from active business a few
years ago to devote all his time to
'1oafing" and to his family, consisting
of his wife and three children.

confined largely to professional opera

high prices. The volume Of business
showed a sharp reduction.
Call money renewed at 81 per cent
and then advanced to 5h as banks
called between $25,00GO00 and $780,
100000 in loans. This was regarded,
however, as the usual month-en
shifting of funds, as there were no in
dications Of change in time money
and commercial paper rates. How
ever, commission houses reported that
the high charge on day to day loans
had a tendency to keep speculative op-
erations for the rise in check and prob
ably encouraged some short selling.
