Relief First.
Aim of O’Ryan
in Army Probe
jCharges of Graft in Connec
tion With Hospitals for War
Victims Will Be Sec
ondary in Probe.
By (Jnivfnm) Service.
Washington, March 13.—"Relief to
the disabled Boldier first. Then we
will look into alleged graft.”
This was the program adopted by
MaJ. Gen. John F. O’Ryan, special
counsel for a senate investigating
committee, when he formally opened
an Inquiry into the operations of the
veterans' bureau.
An agreement was reached with
Gen Frank T. Hines, new director of
the bureau, to follow this course.
Both the senate committee an* the
bureau have this in mind, it was
stated, and the first efforts will be
devoted to learning from former sol
diers in what manner they have not
been treated properly. General O’Ryan
pointed out that since General Hines
hus just taken charge of the bureau
and is in no way involved In alleged
graft, there Is no reason why the two
should not co operate.
Will Classify Complaints.
A study of the complaints of the
former soldiers will be made and the
icaults obtained classified. Even be
fore ''inquiring into the irregularities
charged in the acquisition of hospi
tals and the purchase of supplies, an
I effort will be made to adjust the per
sonnel so that every deserving veteran
will get what he is entitled to, it was
stated.
General O’Ryan said that within a
month or six weeks he will have the
result of his investigation so nearly
completed that it will be possible for
him to report to the special senate
committee. At this time, it Is planned
to hold open hearings and give any
one the opportunity to make charges,
which may not at this time he before
the committee.
Former service men also will be
called before the committee and asked
to specify instances in whfch they
have not received proper hospitaliza
tion or compensation.
Question Forbes Publicly.
Col. Charles R. Forbes, formerly di
rector of the bureau, and a number
of assistants will be Interrogated pub
licly so that "the country may know
just what has been done and left un
done for the benefit of the men who
suffered as a result of service.’’
"I am entering the investigation
without any preconceived notions,"
said General O’Ryan. ”1 hope to get
to the meat of the matter in very
short order. A very fortunate feature
of tbs Investigation is that General
Hines is in no way involved. This
relieves the situation of what other
wise might have been a real embar
rassment. General Hines' past can
noF be affected by this investigation.
"Since the aim of everyone is to
first see that the bureau functions
properly and fairly, that red tape is
cut and there is the least possible
delay in furnishing aid, we will gain
most by co-operating to this end.”
General O'ltyan will establish two
offices here, one at the veterans’ bu
reau and one in the senate. He plans
also to have associated with him a
physician of national note and at leas:
two additional lawyers and several
trained investigators.

Omaha Grain
Omaha, March 13.
Total receipts at Omaha were only
75 cars, as compared with 149 cars
last year. Total shipments were 169
cars, against 136 cars a year ago.
There was a fair demand for cash
! grain on the Omaha market at the
going prices, but holders were unwill
ing to meet the decline and samples
all moved slowly. Wheat, corn and
oats were generally lc lower. Rye
was quoted nominally 1 l-2c lower and
barley nominally unchanged.
Wire service was still curtailed this
morning and few wires were in opera
tion out of Chicago, cutting the vol
ume of business down to a minimum.
The action of that market was slow
at the start and slightly higher in
price, but the advance met with profit
taking sales and was not maintained.
The visible Bupply statement dis
closed a decrease of 926,000 bushels
of wheat, an increase of 2,201,000 busfctr
els of corn and a decrease of 1,475,
000,000 bushels of oats. This state
ment had a bearish affect on corn
and that grain developed considerable
weakness around midsession and In
fluenced a lower range of values in
other grains.

Chicago Grain !
By I'nlvrrul Service.
Chicago, March 13.—Prenaure waa
brought to bear in the grain market \
today which at first was regarded as
voluntary unloading by longs, this
selling later running the market Into
scattered liquidation. Prices sustained i
a sharp setback for all grains.
Wheat closed H©1Hc lower; corn ;
was %@lVic off; oats were H&Hc |
down; rye ruled *?4@1 He lower, and
barley remained unchanged.
There was good buying by commission
houses of wheat, when It droppsd In
sympathy with corn, and near the close,
support from a local operator caused a
moderate flurry. Reports that a leading
local elevator concern was contemplating
Increasing the public warehouse capacity
In Chicago led to much selling In wheal.
Liquidation was fairly h-avy In corn
Kastern houses were the best sellers dur
ing the early session. Buying was by
locals and shorts Country offerings of ;
this grain remained generally light.
Oats trailed other gralne Most of the
business In this pit was In the wsy or
i hanging from the May to the July. I
Holders were credited with selling ry ,
while the demand was scattered and .
feeble The northweat waa out of the .

of May and July lard Lard was un- ,

The Armour Drain Co la reported to
be considering the making of two more
elevators regular for the storage of grain
The house.! will have a combined ca
... i,v of 2 300.000 bushels If the proposi
tion goes through I! is believed there
is enough grain here bow to fill houses
of this else.
blattered reports from over the entire
winter wheat twit l-ll that the regent
rainfall has been quite beneficial to the
crop, although the dry areas of western
Kansas received no moisture. Illinois
reports winter wheat and ry* In fine

New York, March 13.—Another im
pressive demonstration in the stock
! market today furnished additional
evidence that the present constructive
movement in shares has not ceased
discounting the increased earnings
and dividends, resulting from the
prosperity in industry and trade now
being witnessed. Speculative leaders
were again taken in hand, advancing
from 1 to 3 points. Some specialties
scored maximum advances of as much
as 5 points.
Quite a number of new high records
were noted, the most notable being in
American Locomotive, Baldwin, Na
tional Enameling and Stamping,
Mack Truck, Gulf States Steel, Cuba
Cane preferred and Punta Alegra.
Th* market wan a broad one and in
cluded practically all groups. Even the
rails showed renewed vitality under
leadership of New York Central which
rose more than two point*.
The prospect of tighter call money rates
over Man h lf>. wh*n the government will
make heavy demand* upon the Federal
Reserve system failed to < auao any ap
prehension for tiia general list continued
upward in the far<* of .« rise in *aj|
money to 5*4 per rent, where It closed.
A renewal of the advance In ^mmodity
prices was also noted Higher prices
were quoted for rnw and refined sugar
and a new high figure was named for
cotton, the May contract reaching 31.26c
a pound Expectation of a cotton short
age continues to dominate that market.
Th- prospect of higher wagp* fur labor
in general loomed up strongly today
when it became known that the Anaconda
has advanced wages of miner* and
smelter worker* 60 cents a day, the raise
being effective at once. Other Conner
purrs must he expeted for industrial
product* owing «o the shortage of labor.
