Sharp upturns that wet weather caused In the wheat market todav were followed by a decided re action, due to talk of Imports from Can a.ln. PrUes closed hca y. at the sumo as last nli;ht to 1 cent hlKher, with Sep tember 9",c and iH'cember at 9,'c. Corn fl'.ished No off to So up: oats, un rliini((d to c Mtrher, and provisions varvins from f diillne to a rise ft i'V. Waves of luivlna which swept over tho wheat market during the first half of the session, tarried prices to the htuheet level readied In mote than a tortnlcht. Predictions ol continued storm over al most tho entire domestic belt wcro elilefly what stimulated the rush to th bull side of the mnrket. Additional de lavs to the movement of the crop ap peared to b certain and made Increas ingly difficult any move to accumulate upplloe in store. Higher quotations at Liverpool counted also against the bears, especially as world shipments for tho week promised to show a notuhlc Tallinn trr. In tho last half of the day, rumors of tentative arrangements to brln Canadian wheat to Minneapolis a'tcd na r wet blanket on buyers here. The rela tive cheapness of the Canadian product wsa said to have tempted millers to con sider carefullv tho outlook for brlnuing liberal quantities across the border. Speculative sentiment seemed then-after to change radically, and selling became the popular course. Before the pit was cleared one firm alone had thrtwn over board fully l.(iciiC' bushels. lteirts of exceptionally plertlful for age lanrcly outweighed other Influences In the corn market. This week's reoclrta of cattle were said to have been the fattest crass fed arrivals on record. Onts averaged higher, but. the ranse was nar row. Uurnl offerings remained small and the senboHid demand lelr Provisions ywnyed Ith grain, going upward a little at first hut then easlim off. The volume of bwdnera was light.

There Is scarcely 4 sklrniloh, battl or artlllsry attack In which tha wire doesn't partici pate, sometimes In co-operation with aeroplanes, sometimes without.

Tha Oormans are said to hava wired tha entire quarry region between the Alsne and the Olse through their secret agents before the war. At any rate wherever the French have advanced In that region they say they have found evi dences of long preparation for wire com munication between farm buildings, cot tage, mills, etc., occupied by spies and the German batteries. The story 1 told of an Infantry picket arriving at an Isolated farm house In that region and finding; an old woman seem ingly alone. They asked for water and food. She swore she had nothing and insisted that tt waa useless to search. Reluctantly she preceded the Soldiers to the cellar, where there was nothing but a few hogshead standing on end. One of them, bigger and higher than the rest, aroused the curiosity of the sergeant In charge of the party. In approaching ha had the forethought to level his revolver at tho top and thus pet the drop on a man inside with a revolver In one hand and a telephone tn the other. All tha ' other heads contained balterlea I Act of a Here). The Oaxctte da la IVrurse of PctrograJ I tells a story of a telephonist, who was the only Ru.slan living when a post was , captured by the Germans. Huddling In j his hole, protected by sand bags, he tele phoned to the artillery to fire directly at him and they would get the Hermans. The battery changed its aim accordingly and the telephonist transmitted tha re sult of the fire aa coolly as If he were not the targtt Shells rained upon tha place and the Germans were repulsed, leaving their doad. When the K'isalana reoccupled the position they found tho telephonist still unharmed In his hole. Projectors and aircraft ordered from Ypres by wireless plsyed a great role In the first battle erf Ypres. The airmen wero able to Ascertain Just what troops the Germans were bringing up, while the projectors arrived just In tlms to discover the Prussian giaH atemptlng a surprise attack and to enable tha Brit ish tn out them up. Errors In ths transmission of orders and Information by wire sometimes occur and they are generally serious. A mis take In the translation of a wireless mes sage Is reported on one occassion to hava caused the Vhlana to retire from Casset to Armentlers, losing them thetr posi tions, which tha French oooupled.

But his j most memoralil bit of phrasing was his I reply to the captain of ths Scrapie, who. at the end of an hour's conflict asked him to surrender. "I have not yet begun to fight!" re torted Jonea. And events justified hU assertion, for the Ronhomme Richard (named In compliment to Benjamin Franklin) took tha larger vessel. Later, when Jones was told that George HI had knighted tha captain of the Serspls for his gallant conduct In ths battl, Jones aid: "Never mind; If I mast him again I'll make an earl of him!"

Where does tha sea serpent dwelt T Its appearances are only semi-occasional. 1 Somewhere It must hava a home. Tho question la. What region Is Its normal hsbltatr The answer is that Its home under the ordinary circumstances ts In th depths of the sea. On might deem It not unlikely that tha special haunts of sea serpents are the great marine abysses In regard to which knowledge has been gained only within the last few years. Natrallat today are obliged to confess that they know almost nothing about the fauna of these deeps. In truth, it may be said that three-fourths of the earth's surface remains as yet unexplored be cause covered by miles of water. All of thts aqueoua territory aa a region of mys tery, Inhabited by strange snd fantastlo creatures. Tha terra fantastic as applied to them ia not Inappropriate, Inasmuch as their forms In many cases are soon as might properly present themselves la a nightmare. Once In a while a deep-sea animal finds Its way by accident to tho surface and ts found dying or dead, and It Is from such occasional specimens that science has de rived what small knowledge of tha large depth fauna It possesses. Smaller crea tures In considerable numbers. Including crustacean and mollusks, have been brought to the surface by ths dredges of exploring vessels. Apparently there are In the depths numbers of cuttleflah-rike animals, unlike any that are familiar to us, which furnish food to many of tho abysmal fishes. Some of these cephalo- I pods have an apparatus like a reflecting lantern for throwing light downward to the bottom over which they pata On one 00c as tori the IT. B. ft. Albatross passed through many miles of water over which cuttlefishes of a deep-sea species about tho sue of a water pall were scat tered by the tens of thousanda All of them without exception were mora or leas mutilated, and It was evident that In the depths below they were being at tacked by some e'nemy and destroyed wholesale. These cuttles are known to be the favorite prey of abysmal sharks. 'on whose stomachs have been found great numbers or their parrot-Ilka beaks undi gested.

I "'- mv iii.-iii, in nni-ii , aunii, SLueuns ; a length of sixty feet ' Undoubtedly a creature of the great I depths is the giant squid, which Is by far the largest of tha cuttlefishes. A full grown specimen weighs 10,000 pounds, Its body Is fifty feet long, and besides eight smaller tentacles. It has two great ones for purposes of attack, each of them 100 feet In length. Thus ths total length of the creature Is not let than 1TO feet Swimming backward It Its customary manner by expelling water from Its siphon with ly huge tall out of water, and the long tentacles undulating over the waves behind, this formidable mon ster ran easily be taken for a sea ser pent. Though It appears at tha surface very rarely, it may be a not uncommon species down below. Even on the brightest day no ray f sunshine penetrates to a greater depth than KM feet In the ocean. Thts fact has been positively ascertained by exposures made with specially constructed marine cameras lowered Into the sea. Conse quentty It Is manifest that tha deptha of tna ooean must be absolutely dark. A fluid blackness, a darkness that mar lit erally be felt reigns everywhere, Illumi nated only by ths lanterns which tha fishes and certain other abyssmal crea tures themselves carry. Soma of the fishes hava lamps which are turned on or orr at will, being under control by tha nervous system of tha bearer. New Tork Herald. Batterfly It arses.
