B-ld- I CHICAGO GRAIN AND PROVISIONS Featares of tfce Tradlafj aa Ctoslac pim oh Board of Trade. -itit a nri iM SKI Record breaking receipta led to a good deal of bear pres sure today on wheat Laxge y In conse quence, the market, which closed unset. tied, was o w iwii 7,,, T..n.k.. st tum v. and Mav at Corn lost M.tW4o to c, on.1 May 8J4o to hio. In provisions, the outcome varied from a 47Vc decline to a rise of 77Ho. It was fully apparent before the end of the session that the big movement to primary terminals waa the chief obsta cle for the bulla In wheat According to figures which were posted about an hour after the opening, the receipt for the week at the leading domestic oentera exceeded In sire any former total. In this connection the fact waa pointed out that Winnipeg arrivals, too shattered all previous marka. Ideal father had given the market a downward slant nearly from the outset, but now the de clines became much more pronounced, es pecially as signs pointed to a liberal In orease of the visible supply on Monday. Assertions that Koumania would join the Anglo-French allies counted to some extent in favor of the wheat bears, and so also did reports of the despatch of Russian forces to Invade .Bulgaria from the east. On the other hand, little waa heard of export demands, although some business was put through. A slight rally In the last few minutes appeared to be due to week end evening up. Fine weather. - that Implied larger re ceipts, tended to esse the corn market Foreign advices, however, acted s some thing of an offset Oats gave way a trifle with corn and wheat. Export transactions at the seaboard prevented any serious decline. Realising sales by longs weakened the provision market as a whole after an early advance that resulted from higher quotations on hogs. A notable excep tion to the general setback was a squeexe against shorts In October ribs. The bulge, which amounted to 77H, waa ac companied by but little actual business Chicago Cash Prices Wheat: No. 3 red tl.W01.12: No. 8 red. 31.ObWl.06; No 3 hard, 87ctl.01.

LONlXN, Oct 1-Strangest looking of all the ships with the British grand fleet la tha Atlantic liner wnicn nan been transformed Inte a mothsr-ehtp for the sea-planes There are put forms In place of the promenades where passen gers used to lounge, bombs In place of deck-quolta, and the dlnlng-ealoona have been fitted up as workshlpa Every thing that a seaplane needs In tha way of repairs can be supplied. "Here Is our assortment of bombs. " ssld an officer, ahowlng an exhibit of different sites on a shelf. "That one weight 100 pounds, the same aa a six Inch Shalt" "What do you use them onT" he waa asked. "Anything from a German cruiser. If we get a rhanos at one, to a submarine. That big bomb would finish a 2ppelln, too." A crane that once bad taken passen gers' trunks out of the hold lifted a sesplan off a platform and deposited it en th water, where it bounoed oa the wavea before the motor was started, and It skimmed across th surface for 100 yards or more, rose, circled around the fleet two or three times, and then dis appeared out at tea. With Its floats It looked clumsy beside an aeroplane th difference between a duck and a hawk. Resaaaoe at lea Warfare. Most ot ths romance and the action of sea warfare while th British grand fleet wait for tha German fleet to come out are ths seaplanes and th destroy ers. The dreadnoughts remain In har bor, except for occasional cruises Into ths North Sea. but th plana and tha destroy srs are always on th movs. They work together In hunting "nits," ss British officer and man universally re fer to submarines. A submarine la vtsibl to an aviator when It Is cruising below tha surface. It never travel deeper than thirty or forty feet end leaves a characteristic rlppU air-bubbles and streak, of oil. Whe. a plane has located a submarine It Big- th- hunUri hre to go, But fca- . 7 . . , . den the track. - A submarine mar b known to b In a certain rsgton and be Inst and scan and lost and seen again. Submarine bunting la a tireless gam of hide and seek. Naval Ingenuity hag In vented no end of method ot location and of destruction. Experiment hat proved some to b effectual and some useless. Strictest kept f naval tecrstt these. Very thin th akin of a submarine and very fragll and complicated Ita ma rhlnery. It doea not taka roach of a shock to put It cut of order or a large cargo of explosives to dent that skin beyond rwpalr. Ta Kssw Jast Wk. "Th difficulty I to know whsn you get them," an officer explained; "for It la In th nature of tha submarine ta Ink. whether vitally Injured ar not. It may hav gon to th bottom to star In fifty fathoms of water, or It may have submerged under a choppy sea and made Ita escape. W hav bean hunting them for a year, now, and a doubt wa ar getting tha better of them. W hav not only learned how to keep them off from our great ship, but how to de stroy them." If oil and bubblaa 00 me up for a long time In ona place crilf they come up with a rush, that la ocmslderad fairly good evidence of success, Thsr Is no oap for th crew. They cannot make tha gub martna lis or get out of It It become steel casket In a watery gray. No nau tical mind I required to realise that by casting about on th bottom with a grap nel you will learn If an object with tha bulk and sit of a submarine is ther. and tha "death" of submarine la estab lished in this way. "Th admiralty will not accept any rneas work about It," said an officer. We may hav put an eeuilrjfvs right Into on or rammed It In a way that mutt bar broken It back, bat that Is not proof enough. Th record toe down on th chart as 'grrpposed destroyed.'" Hers Ar Trana. With Admiral Crawford th correspond- est of Th Associated Presa went to th submarine defenses of a harbor. Cruiser and destroyer and auxiliaries war going and coming, but tt narrow opening through ahlch they passed war closed Instantly thsr war by. Ther wss mor than ona obstruction. If a subma rine got past th first or th second. It waa In a por"- ,8vral har been cauaht In this way. Taka rare! Thar la a tld hsrs!" th coxswain of th admiral' barg waa warned. "We don't want to get caught In a trap meant for Frits." At on naval bas th correspondent saw a number of destroyers lying moored to a quay as cloa together as fish in a 6askt Tbsy had Just cam m from a tour at sea f Thirty Knars. , ai a destroyer gets on th track of submarine It has thirty knots against th submarine's six or eight. There I no difficulty In keeping up It wireless bring a swarm of as lota no. Th fast- turblne destroyer aeemad to slip over th (water aa if tbely bottom wer oiled. Only a tew of th crew ar exposed when shower of freetlng spray tweop the decks, and all ar clad In thick, short coats of Ham wooi which kep their bodies warm and leave th leg free for movement In keeping footing at the destroyers roll and plung In a heavy tea. Every ship on th blocked from Ics- land to th British Channel Is also a part of system of submarine hunting. They show no light; ther ar no lights along th coatt at night "It give one an Idea of England's maritime resources," ssld an officer, "when vou consider that wa have 2,309 trawler and other auxiliary ship on service." The trawler plod over sea-squares with tha regularity of moving-machine cutting a harvest, an their way back and fortn sweeping up mines. They wer fisherman before th war and ar flan- ermen still. They com Into harbors atllf with cold, thaw out, hav a rest, and return to their vigil and tuair hardslpa Beyond them, the cruiser and the de stroyers are patrolling on ua watch to' any sign of a Oerman ship coming out past Heligoland.
