EIGHT REPORTED KILLED
Fifteen Others Seriously Hurt When
English Trains Collide.

BIZ United Press
LONDON, Feb. 14.-Eight were
reported killed and fifteen seriously
injured today when the Wither Sea-
Hull express, carrying hundreds of
school children, collided head.on in
fog near Hull with the Hull-Scar-
borough express. Six coaches, most.
ly filed with children, were tele-
scoped. A saloon coach, containing
business men, was wrecked. The
wreck was near the scene of SINH
lar collision ten days ago. 1t was
partly attributed to the fog which
began it's fourth day in the British
Isles and has been responsible for
numerous accidents.
Two vessels were sunk off the
coast and nine damaged.
The Norwegian steamship Raa was
officially reported sunk after she had
been abandoned by her crew with
the engines running and let loose in
the channel, a potential source of
danger to navigation. The Raa was
in collision with the Norwegian
steamer Gordjeveeia.

WHEAT RESPONDS

Chicago Price Moves Up
Less Than Point.

DU CHt6U FT6SS
CHICAGO, Feb. 14.-In response
to the fairly strong Liverpool cables,
wheat prices opened, q to Is higher
than the previous close on the Chi
cago Board, of Trade today. Senti-
ment continues somewhat mixed,
with more or less general DISPOSE
market until some new incentive is
developed for aggressive action on
either side. The season for winter
wheat crop scares is at hand and
they are likely to be the governing
influence.
Corn opened unchanged to u
cent lower than Fridays closing
prices. 1t seems that developments
in the cash situation must govern
action in corn futures. Smaller re-
ceipts the past week are not likely
to be reflected in any important
change in the visible supply, as the
shipments also have been much
lighter. Prices are at an attractive
level, however, and the shipping de-
mand has been dormant for so long
that if it shows any change at all it
