CHINESE WAR NEWS
GIVES WHEAT BOOST
Upturns Meet Enough Selling,
However. to Keep Price Range
in Narrow Levels.
By the Associated Press.


CHICAGO, March 25.-Warilke
news from China tended to reduce
early buying of wheat today, and to
lift prices. Upturns, however, met
with enough selling TO keep the mar
ket within narrow bounds. Starting
at Il off to q up, wheat later scored
some gain all around. Corn, oats and
provisions were likewise firm, corn
opening at shade to a advance ana
holding near to the initial range.
In addition to disturbing advices
from China. falling off in the volume
of Australian and Argentine ship
ments was construed as a wheat bull
ish factor. Friends of higher prices
nut stress, too, on assertions that the
European wheat crop had been over
estimated and was being felt the more
on account of notable shortage of Eu'
ropean rye and potatoes.
Overnight demand for North Ameri-
can wheat was reported as good Ac-
cording to one authority it was no
trouble to sell abroad all the Canadian
wheat in nearby positions. Good ex-
port business in rye appeared also to
be going on.

Indians RUNNING
IN Big MARATHON
Longest Race in History Of Man
Being Run on Pacific Coast

San Francisco, June IS (UP) -
Eleven Indians doggedly pounded
their way along the hard California
highway today in the longest mara
thon run in the history OF man,
$50 miles.
Flying Cloud. Oregon Karook
Indian, set the best mark for the
opening day by covering 81 miles
in five hours and So minutes. The
run brought him to Petaluma.
Strung out at intervals OF about a
mile behind him were Rushing Wa
ter, Falcon. Fighting Stag, Mad
Bull, Big White Deer and Thunder
Cloud.
The three Zuni Indians, trained
by Mike Kirk, did not leave San
Rafael until the others had gone.
Kirk being content to let others set
the pace during the first part Of
Jamon, youngest Of the New
Mexican Zunis. was regarded as the
favorite to win the race. which is
nearly 10 times as long as the first
marathon run in Greece.
The race is go-as-you- please
affair and nightfall found the con-
testants bivouacked along the road
of Petalusna, which is 3S miles
north OF Sausalito. Complete camp
ing equipment has been provided
for each of the runners with auto
mobiles trailing along behind them
and attendants ready to provide
food or treatment for tired muscles
and aching feet.
The hardest part Of the contest
is in the first stages, over the paved
highway which extends IS miles
through Jack London's valley Of
the Moon" to Healdsburg.
Stretches of oil and gravel re-
lieve the hard footing at intervals
from that point north.

DRIVERS VICTIMS
IN MANY CRASHES
One Out Of Every Seven in Fatal
Collisions Killed

Hartford June 1J-One of every
seven operators involved in fatal
motor vehicle accidents in Connec-
ticut is killed at the time of the
accident. Among those drivers who
survive such accidents, one Of every
five is found crininaliy responsible
for the fatality by the coroner in
Nestigating the case.
These averages are shown in re-
turns made to the stale motor We
hicle department by coroners OF the
eight counties for the years 1925
and 1926 and the first four months
of this year. Returns are incom
plete or inconclusive on tifty-nine OF
the Tc9 fatal accidents during the
periods represented in the report.
SO that the death and responsibility
rates for operators may be slightly
higher than now indicated. Be
tween so and 50 per cent OF the
death car drivers were exoneratej,
according to the returns.
Comparison indicates that findings
VI liiiiilell tspp!lSllJtlttS Ntie ltiotS
numerous in 1926 than in 1925. but
the percentage for the early months
of this year has dropped below that
of 1925. This is especially inter-
osting in view of the fact that UP
TO May /, the fatality record this
year equaled that Of the correspond
ing period of 1925, which was the
worst year in the history Of the
state,
Co. gers OF New Haven county
lead in the number Of criminal re-
sponsiblity findings. More than 80
per cent or about one in every three
death car drivers, have been held
responsible for the death OF the ac-
cident victims. Fairfield county,
where the percentage Of findings
against operators was low in 1925
and 1925, has returned decisions
against almost as many drivers in
the first four months OF this year
as in the whole of each Of the two
previous years. In 1925 the county
held eight drivers responsible in II
accidents; in 1926, six in IS, and
thus far this year five in rs acct
dents.
The lowest percentage of GRIM
inal responsibility findings has been
recorded in New London county. In
eighteen fatal accidents there in
1925 there were no findings OF GRIM
inal responsibility. including three
cases on which returns have not yet
been made to the department. For
the next year the report shows that
three operators were held criminal
ly responsible among Is involved In
fatalities. Thus far this year, the
record is one exoneration and three
cases unreported.
In Tolland county, which has the |
lowest automobile fatality rate. only |
one case Of criminal responsibility |
has been found in the twelve fatal |
accidents since January. 1925. Mid
Glesex county was free from fatal |
accidents during the first four
months OF this year. Findings Of |
criminal responsibility were two in !
