    French May Use
Motor Hearses

oft. ,
0jj IB, May 28.—Picturesque and de
aling French funeral processions
Bloomed to disappear, martyrs to
rJ"rnism, If the suggestions of M.
ekj Rlotor, a member of the Paris
Vjcouncll, are adopted by French
jtakers and the French publift.
el;(he French procession the corpse
t«j* nsported from the home to the
lifh and from the church to the
Ijtery on a simple hearse, drawn
fjiorses. Often the hearse is no
elaborate than the gun caissons
II in military funerals.
Wfle mourners walk slowly and sor
Ji’ully behind the remains of their
f d ones. Only those few who, on
lount of old age or infirmities, are
\ible to walk, ride in black car
ges.
All Pay Tribute.
I Is the procession passes along the
eets of the city, passershy^ stop
an instant in their walk, the men
ping their hats, the women ntak
r the sign of the cross.
Rioter's suggestion, which has been
ssed along by the municipal coun
to the city undertakers' associa
n for consideration, provides motor
tlon for the procession,
ftiotor argues it is illogical that
t old style procession should exist
this modern age, that it clogs the
let-wise busy streets, depresses pas
sby and works a hardship on the
urnei-s, who often walk many miles
tind the hearses in unfavorable
at her.
n the procession for Sarah Bern
rdt the mourners walked for two
irs and a half, in a warm sun,
m the church of St. Francois in
i part of the city to the Cemetery
Pere la Chaise, in an entirely dif
snt part of the city, a distance of
eral miles.
New. Plan Favored.
Undertakers are eager to adopt the
modern procession, according to the
newspaper L'Intransigeant, and have
proposed providing big auto- busses to
carry the mourners.
L'Intransigeant interviewed three
religions leaders—a Catholic prin a
Protestant minister and a . - wish
rabbi—on the question. Only the
Catholic priest raised any objection
to modernization of the procession.
"I have no major objection to the
proposition," he said, "but I will hat«
to see the old customs cast aside."
"Certainly the present processions
ate more representative of the sad
ness and majesty of death," said the
Protestant minister, "but the prac
tical advantages of motor proces
sions decide the question."
“It is a material detail against
which no objections can be raised,"
said the Jewish rabbi.
Lady Bluebird Fickle .
to Mate. Pastor Finds
Boston, May 26.—The fickelness of
the female bluebird has been definite
ly established. Bands placed on the
legs of birds by observers in the state
formed the telltale evidence. Every
band so placed bears a number in a
.^regular series so as to enable the iden
tification of birds from season to sea
son.
Last May Rev. George E. Allen of
Plainfield, banded with the number
17.236 a bluebird which was brooding
five young in a nest box. In July
she hatched three more young in an
other box. Her mate with the last
brood was No. 17243. She returned
last month, but when Allen discover
ed her perched in the box where she
hatched her last brood her companion
was not No. 17,243, but another song
ster in brilliant blue and orange coat,
No. 17,249.
Students Given Test by
Professor Miles Away
Students of the Hnaren High school
of New York City were recently given
an examination tesB In simple arith
metic. involving addition, substruc
tion. by a professor several miles
away, whose voice was carried into
the class room through a loud speak
ed connected to .a Westinghouse RO
set. The planning of similar tests by
the New York hoard of education,
which will include the pupils of sev
eral high schools simultaneously,
might be looked upon as laying the
corner stone for a university of the
air. —

Omaha. May 26.
Total receipts at Omaha were 87
cars against 143 cars. Total shipments
were 74 cars, as compared with 326
cars a year ago.
Omaha cash wheat was rather weak
and holders were unwilling to accept
the decline. Sales were small with
prices 1 to 2 l-2c lower. Corn sold
1 to 2 cents lower. Outs were gener
ally 1 cent lower. Rye was quoted
nominally 2 cents lower and barley
weak.
Favorable weather and estimates
of a largely increased acreage of corn
was instrumental In causiqg a decid
ed lowering of prices of grain on the
Chicago futures market today. Local
wheat bulls had become disgusted
i because the market did not respond
to the bullish news. Numerous stop
loss orders were reached on the way
down, which accelerated the down
ward movement.
Rather general selling continued
throughout the entire session with
final figures the lowest for the day.
HERE AND THERE.
Broomhall cables. Liverpool: The
situation in wheat in Liverpool re
mains about unchanged, with the tone
I steady. Offerings of Manitobas, how-.
ever, continue in rather liberal vol
uhie. In addition fairly good quan
titis of Indian and Argentina wheats
are also available. Trade in wheat ap
pears to be broadening moderately,
but in general the demand has not
been very brisk.
There has been a moderate business
passing In corn in the United King
doni recently. Offerings of American
sorts are rather limited but good
quantities of Ulatte corn are being
mt forward.
Russian Exporter, Winnipeg, wires:
Liverpool gossip today says Russia
Will have 140.0S0.000 bushels wheat
for export this season. A IJttle rain in
the west will probably keep the wheat
from going too high.
Russells News, New York, wires:
There was a small scattered business
in wheat but the volume over night
continued disappointedly light. There
was a moderate business in corn and
indications of a light business in rye.
Exporters offered wheat cheap to Eu
rope last night; very little accepted.
George M. Lecount wires from Lo
gansport, Ind.: FroYn Fort Wayne here
there is very little poor wheat. Fields
in general have a good stand and
growth and color; is mostly in the
boot. Winter killing not so serious
in Indiana. Early planted corn is
coming up very uneven and much
tvill he replanted.
Wichita, Kan.: Wheat In vicinity of
Great Bend all headed; short straw
and head and light stand, 8 to 12 bush
els with normal weather.
East to Hutchinson: All short and
short heads. A few fields not worth
cutting; 6 to 8 bushels if fills well.
Hutchinson here: Some thin fields,
but stand averages fair with fair
heads; 12 to 14 busheds. Some corn
up; about three weeks before wheat
is ripe hero.
Hession fly in Missouri. Spring
field, Mo.i On the Hession fly is being
placed the blame for damage done to
the stem of wheat during the last
two weeks, according to W. F. Drip, '
county farm bureau agent. It was
at first thought the breaking of wheat
stocks was due to strong winds, hut
the fly and stent are responsible. The
excessive rains' of the past week have
prevented wheat from maturing as
early as it should.

Chicago, May 26—Tiring of their
task, the bulls in the wheat market
liquidated freely today and left the
market practically without support.
Prices were on the toboggan from
start to finish, closing at bottom
levels.
Wheat closed 2^4q to 2,/»c lower,
corn 2He to 2%c do^n, aqd oats %c
to lV4c lower, while rye was 2&c to
3c lower, and barley unchanged.
Aside from the pronounced weak
ness in the northwest there was no
other development to account for the
semidemoralized condition the mar
ket displayed. The absolute irrespon
siveness of wheat to bullish news
seemed to be the best explanation of
ihe break.
Liquidation Hit* Corn.
Liquidation In corn seemed more gen
eral than in wheat Aside from snort
covering there was little buying noted. A
prominent house that has been selling
rorn consistently for several days had It
for sale today right up to the close.
Weather conditions over the corn belt
were quite favorable and this imbued
many with bearish feelings.
Oats displayed a fairly strong under
tone for a while, but finally weakened
with the other grains. Commission hoiues
and locals pressed the market, w.hile the
shorts took offerings on the dips.
Rye wan very heavy, the slump in the
futures at Duluth having considerable in.
fluence. Lack of foreign demand for
rye has discouraged bulls in this grain.
Locally the tutsh basis whs weak.
Lain closed 7Vic lower and riba Be to
7Vic lower.
Pit Notes.
Everybody in the wheat Pit seemed to
be selling the market during the greater
part of the session today, except on the
last decline to the day's low. whon com
mission houses absorbed a great deal of
offerings. Prior to thut it was merely
a case of shorts taking profits. Traders
who have been buying futures for sev
eral days on the bad crop teports emanat
ing out of the southwest wore letting
go. With this prop gone the market
couldn’t help but give wav.
Doth wheat and rye at Minneapolis
were very weak Cash wheat in that
market was 2c to 3c lower and Paid
to V»e generally unsalable. The’ recent
bear reports on rye, issued by the gov
ernment. came In for much comment and
was probably one of the reasons for the
ba<l tumblo in northwestern prices.
Liverpool was credited with reporting
that Russia will have an exportable
wheat surplus, this year, of 140.000,000
bushels The news, if nothing else, to
many emphasized the recent reports that
have been coming form Europe and
domestic sources that the old world will
have to depend much less on North Amer
ica for supplies this season
Primary receipts on fheat for the
week were not large, totalling 3.837.000
bushels compared with *.108."00 bushels
last year. Premiums over the country
have been shaded the last few days,
however, for buyers were inadequate for
what was offered.

Bjr rnlvfmHl Service.
Now York, May 26.—Th« recoil
which began in the stock market late
Thursday afternoon continued again
today, but with increased vigor. Sev
, eral new high records for the year
were registered in a volume of trad
j ing which exceeded that witnessed for
any short session in weeks. Princi
! pal activity was in the industrial
shares, of which American Can and
j California Petroleum distinguished
i themselves with sharp advances to
i new high figures for the year.
The ease with which quotations ad
vanced indicates that the recent
heavy selling movement, resulted in
the transfer of stocks from weak to
I strong hands, which ara unwilling to
part with them at the moment. Be
* cause of the scarcity of good stocks
shorts were forced to bid prices up in
order to cover their outstanding com
mitments.
Tfad* IiefenuN Favorable.
Publication of favorable weekly re
view* helped toward causing Initial gains.
I California Petroleum, Baldwin, Stude
bakor and Aii*eriean Can led In the first
hour. Ah the session * progressed th*
momentum Increased. Final Quotations
were around the best.
The vigor with which the msrket clos
ed would lead to the expectation of a
« ontJnuntlon of thn upward movement
Monday, a.s a result of an accumulation or
buvina orders over the holiday.
Todays activity and strength demon
strated the Holdout condition of tha gen
eral list.
More optimism was expressed regarding
the oil Industry, owing to the warm
weather which will result In the estab
j Hshment of another new record In the
' consumption of gasoline. Belief is grow
ing that the last of the oil cuts hag
, liw-n seen and that an.v change in tha near
; future will b* on the upgrade.
Mexican Seaboard "lenim Back.**
Dealings In oils were featured by a
"Comeback" in Mexican Seaboard, which
1 has been one Of the most despised
shares. It advanced sharply because of
the bringing In of a new well flowing
at the rate of 25.000 barrels dally.
The cotton market also contributed to
♦ho general feeling of optimism in the
Mr et by advancing In anticipation of
publication of a government report next
Friday showing a low percentage of con
dition. Indicating the prospect of a crop
of If.SOrt bales. This would be less than
the requirements of American and foreign
' stunners next year.
Strength continued In the general bond
market. Foreign governments Wire high
er. French Issues displayed particular
strength Suvnr and copper convertible
- bonds also did better. High grade and
I speculative rails and industrial* were
fractionally higher Opinion of the big
j g t investment bankera I* that a rising
bond market should be expected this aum
; innr on the basis of easy money rate*.

Irish Divorce Suit Revealf
Corespondent Living in
United States.
Belfast, May 2«.—An "eternal tri
angle," with two of Its ''legs" in Ire
land and the other In America, was
revealed In a Ballymoney court re
; cently when the divorce suit of Mrs.
Marion Craig against Thomas Creig
was tried.
Mrs. Craig charged her husband
with technical desertion, claiming
that his cruel treatment of her had
forced her to leave him". Craig de
nied the chargee, but Mrs. Craig won
j a decree, with alimony.
Mrs. Craig introduced In evidence
several "Dearest Tommie" letters
which, she alleged, had been written
to her husband by a Mrs Thompson,
from Halleston, N. Y. The letters
were signed "Jeanie,” and Craig ad
mitted their receipt.
In one of the letters "Jeanie"
wrote: s
"Tommie, dearest, I'd give the world
If tonight I could go home to you.
I don’t mean to Ireland, hut If we
had a little home somewhere. I am
so busy at times struggling on, with
no one to lean on and to help me bear
the burden. But, Tommie, no one can
take your place."
At another time she wrote:
"I grow wr-ary of waiting, Tommie.
It is awful to go on loving some one
without the assurance of a happy end
ing. Tommie, what are you going to
do? Tell me, that I may make some
plana if you are coming this fall. My
' thoughts and dreams are of you al
ways, and I long for the reality which
seems ever to evade my grasp."
