schemes flying through the air work
wrought up to a high pitch of excite
ing on the nerves Of the people who are
ment and many Of them already being
heavily armed, we are indeed fearful
for the safety of the lives of the people
between now and the night of the cleo
ton.
In order to further stir up the bitter
race feeling in this city, it has been
stated many times in public for the
purpose Of influencing the colored
voters 'that in the near future one
hundred and fifty to two hundred
thousand colored people would be
dumped in one pile in Chicago right
from the rural districts Of the southern
states Such reports have struck ter
ror in the hearts of many Of the cit
liens Of Chicago, for to say the least,
it would be a great set back to the
vast majority of the colored people
who have been residing in this city
for many years and are law abiding
through and through to the back bone.
1t is a we'll known fact that if one or
two hundred thousand colored people
would suddenly appear in this city the
housing conditions are so limited that
thousands of them would find them
selves without homes or places to
sleep, for it will be recalled that prior
to and just after the war for world
wide democracy that vast armies OF
colored people invaded this city, and
many Of them after being forced to
live in unsanitary quarters-hve to ten
persons residing in one or two cold
rooms-enduring many hardships
which never confronted them in the
southland. Many Of them sadly re-

WHEAT AND CORN RISE
IN CHICAGO DEALINGS
Cold Weather in Belt Brings Boost
to Coarse Grain Prices-Liver-
pool Factor in Market.
By the Associated Press.

CHICAGO, September 19.-Cold
weather suddenly overspreading the
corn belt brought about an early rush
to buy in the corn market today and
gave prices a big lift. Wheat was
also stronger, owing largely to un-
expected firmness of Liverpool quo
tations and to Southern Hemisphere
complaints of drought. Opening at
Ia to 33s advance, corn held much
of the gain. Wheat started unchang
ed to q up and continued to average
higher. Oats were firmer. Provisions
likewise tended upward.
In addition to severe drop in tenn
peratures throughout the corn belt,
reports that the long succession of hot
days of late had been too much for a
considerable part of the crop. acted as
an incentive to buy today. According
TO some advices, firing of the crop
has taken place in spots: and now
return to unreasonable GOODNESS has
Interrupted the maturing of the larger
part of the crop which was being
favorably affected by heat.
Unlooked-for relative strength of
the Liverpool wheat market today,
promoting advances here, was attrib-
uted in part to, renewed assertion"
that the Canadian estimates of yie-d
have been excessive. Dry weather
advices from Australia and Argentina
were also the subject of much notice.
Meanwhile, receipts today at Mime
apolis and Duluth were far in excess
of fho sfOf91 wear ago.
