CHICAGO, July 30.-July wheat, the med-

h,i tho l..f Ao f, f,.,ii- i k
ery.. The market closed yesterday at fl.OOtt,. I
At the opening of the Board of Trade today I
quotations ranged from $1.07 to $1.06. Within
a few minutes there was a further plunge
to $1.03Vi. I
The fight la said to be. between Water-
man with Dosslble allied Interests and a I
big brokerage house. The opening decline
waa aaid to be the result ot an attempt
of the short . Interest said to represent I
about 600,000 bushels, to shake out any
timid holders, who might be trading the
leading bull, and possibly to Impress the
latter himself. During tha first hour, how.
aver, the drive seemed unsuccessful,, for
very little wheat was shaken out, and the
price' rebounded to 11.07.
. All hope of shorts that the Board of Trade
would relleva the situation by allowing de-
llverlea to be made from wheat on ewitch
tracks waa abandoned, although the board
frequent declarations against corners had
led to a belief In some quarters that Water-
man's hold would be broken In this. way.
There Is precedent for such -action, but no
meetinir of the directors of the board was !
called today, tha last chance for making the I
wheat regular for delivery.
Normally July wheat should be at a dls-1
count as compared with September, but
the prlca today was about 4 to J cents
nmmlum for July. ' ,
Later tha market waa bid up to $1.08.
Tut. close was at 1.05H. Shorts bought

BREAK BETWEEN
SPAIN AND POPE
(Continued from First Page.)
queen of Spain soma day is by no means
so vague as to be Impossible. Spain Is es
sentially a Roman Catholio nation and the
people cling to tha faith with more tenacity
than patriotism. - With the Bpanlsh, the
I Cjiurch of Rome comes before the state and
the king. It la no wonder then, considering
these circumstances, that Don Jaime has
rallied to the causa of the Spanish people,
volunteering to lead a revolution 1q de,
tense of the Vatican and against the gov.
eminent of Alfonso.
' I Regarded as n II
Don Jaime has been hailed throughout
the provinces of Spain as a hero. His threat
to throw Spain into civil war coincides wrth
tha fiery determination of tha Spanish peo
pie to punish Alfonso. Ever since the wag,
ing of tha war In Morocco and the Barce
lona riota tha excitement throughout Spain
haa been tending mora and mora towards
anarchy
Tha Jails ara filled with prisoners, soldiers
are stationed at atrateglc points, provincial
towna are overrun with government spies
and whlii.le arrests ara universal.
Tha hi.tred ot the people against the gov
ernment polish has grown to fever heat
Tlce po3w train of bloody Internecine
strife Is Nkihe only thing now necessary
is tha application of the torch.
Don Jar.'M will apply the match. In fact
according I the Parla view, the name of
Don Jaiir is firebrand enough to throw
np&tn uns m ireusy ui revuiu iu me iaai
turce ym.t the followers of the son ot Don
Carlo have grown In numbers. Dun Jaime
has been living quietly upon the continent,
but he has not been idle by any means.
His agents have been busy throughout
paln. Some of them have suffered arredli
,nd banishment; others are still in prison.
but they are not disheartened by punish
ment This seems to goad them on to
farther endeavors in behalf of their chief
tain.
Stands Well with Vatican.
Don Jaime Is a Catholic and is favorably
looked upon by tha Vatican. Hla connec
tion with tha church of Rome la best
shown by his present attitude, lis stands
I not only willing, but ready to lead an army
I of CarllaU against Alfonso's army In an
effort to overthrow tha government ea-
I tabllah himself as king ana place the
Roman Catholio lalttv in bpaln upon tha
I plane that It formerly occupied.
I Don Jaime's friendship tor Miss Morgan
his devotion to her and her rpputod In
terest In him and his alms has caused
more thun a little goHslrhrre In Bourbon
circles. At first this friendship whs at
tributed to the fart thr.t Miss Morgan and
Don Jaime hnvo many Interests In common.
Miss Morgan la a philanthropist whose
chief Joy In life Is making persons less
fortunate than herself happy. She Is a
tireless worker In behalf of poor girls and
downtrodden men. The bulk of her chari
ties are secret, but they exist both In thla
country and America.
Attarhnient for Miss Morgan.
Ion Jaime Is likewise a philanthropist In
a way. Ha has long been engnged In per
fecting a code of reform which ha wants to
sea Introduced In Spain. If he la ever ele
vated to the throne. His followers admire
him for hla bravery, his kindness, his gen
erosity. He la a soldier, but doea not have
the Instinct of a soldier of fortune strongly
Imbued In him. He Is too frank to be a
Plotter and a successful negotiator of In-
trlgue, and it is this trait which haa en
deared him to hla friends and followers.
The attachment of Don Jaime and Miss
Morgan was first remarked about a year
ago. Since Miss Morgan's present trip
abroad thla gossip haa been vigorously
renewed. A reliable ncwi service re
cently sent to the British newspapers a
story to the effect that the attachment
between the two haa become pronounced.
Miss Morgan Is not a Catholic, but Don
Jaime's Influence with the Vatican Is suf
ficient to have her recognized as queen
of Spain In the eyes ot the Roman Cath
olio church If occasion should ever arise.
The lack of money was always a
handicap to the. Carlist enterprises. If
Don Jaime la successful In raising auffi
clent sums to equip an army, which. Is
(not at all unlikely, success would be
nearer to his grasp than ever befora'in
tha history of the Carlist rebellions.

Board of Health, telling of fifteen cases
which occurred there a few years ago. The
