The lone In wheat are In a dilemma.
There Is a lack of buying power, not
on y at Chicago, but at the smaller mar
kets of the United States, and those who
are carrying a big load of wheat are
leuying no stone, unturned to Improve
their posltlon-lf possible. It will be
remembered that about a week ago n
lound lot of wheat was taken In the
east by an exporting house and that
the seller was also an exporter. There
bar been no trade In United States
wheat for some days. The purchaser of
tile round lot, doubtless, became weary
of his bargain and placed his grain on
tlio "bargain counter" and TOO.OO) bush
us of It was purchased yesterday. It
as said on the Hoard of Trade early
In the duy that export business wa
working at the seaboard and later the
report came from a member of the
Produce exchange there that transac
tions on export account were SOO.OuO

confirmation of tho reported
as one man they reported bids from
abroad as too far out of line for considera
tion. This news was not received In
Chicago until nfter the close of the mar
ket, which was too late for speculators
to recoup their losses. As this report of
export takings nt tho seaboard drove a
great many shorts In tho Chicago market
to cover, as well as developing somo de
mand on Investment account, the report
caused losses among tho trade and
stirred up considerable trouble among
tho people who put out the report with
out knowing whether It was a fact or
not. Tho piofesslouajs In wheat played
a 'same of risk on the bull side yes

HOGS Receipts wero fairly large this
morning, and this, coupled with unfavor
able advices from other markets, mndo
the opening trade here somewhat slow
and tho trend of values lower. The
shipping and speculative demand held
up well nnd a good share of the offer
ings was cleaned up early at figures
that were Just a shade lower. Packets
started out trying to make their pur
chases at prices that were 5ft 10c lower,
but sellers were of the opinion thlit this
reduction was entirely too large and
they held their offerings to such gojI
advantage that In the end packers put
up their droves at figures that wero Just
about a nickel lower than yesterday.
Taking the trade as a whole, value
could be quoted weak to 5o Iowop. Tho
week's supply has been of very good
duality and today was no exception to
this rule. The early trade was very
slow and, as some of the hogs were late
getting In, the market closed rather late,
but all the early arrivals were disposed
of In fair season. Bulk of the sales
landed at $8 70.76, with the long strings
at $8.70, and several loads brought as
high as IS. 80, Just a nickel below yea.
terday's top.
Receipts amounted to about 178 cars or
12,u0u head, bringing tho total for the
three days up to 24.267 head. This lb
about 9,0(1) head smaller than the ft rat
half of last week and 21, W0 head short ot

LONDON, March 19. -The official world
at London and the general public wero
startled today by a terse message from
Salonlkl announcing the nssasslnatlon
of the king of Greece. Interest In the
troubled Balkans has been waning of Jate
days, but the news of this wholly unex
pected tragedy caused an Instant and
Immense sensation. It was not gener
ally known that the king or Greece was
still nt Salonlkl, as nothing had been
heard of his movements for several days.
Concern regarding details of the assas
sination was Intense, but as the hours
passed and no further news had reached
lxmdon It became evident that a rigid
censorship was being maintained.
The strnlneil relations' Between tho
Greek nnd the Bulgnrlan contingents nt
Salonlkl gave Greece the greatest fear
thnt the p.ssassinatlon of King Gcorgo
might have been Incident to a clash be
tween the allies, but n message received
at midnight dispelled such apprehensions
by identifying the assassin as n Greek
degneiate. Another dispatch referred to
him ns demented.
Reporter Hash I'urrlurii Office.
Tho British foreign office Mnrlborough
house, where tho queen mother, AJexan
dri. sister of tho Uend king. Is residing,
and the Greek legation were besieged by
reporters, hut no one nt these places had
nnv Information except the newspaper
I bulletins until nearly 10 o'clock.
I The king and queen of England are.
stopping at Windsor castle, nnd the first
official confirmation of the tragedy cams
to Windsor In n dispatch from Prlnco
X.cholas nt Salonlkl and was transmitted
to Windsor nnd to Marlborough houso
nnd then given to the public. This dis
patch announced that the king had been
shot and died In hnlf an hour. Another
' telegram carrying klmllnr reports was re
I celved from the Greek administrator nt
I Salonlkl.
People Feel for ((ueen.
The greatest sympathy Is felt for Queen
Alexandra. King George of Greece was
her favorite brother. She only recently
suffered another, although less traglo
blow, In the death of her brother, King
Frederick of Denmark. Tho .Princess
Victoria broke tho news to her today.
Queen Alexandra ts said to bo pros
trated, nnd King George nnd Queen Mary
will come from Windsor tomorrow to
give her what consolntlon they can.
Even If tho king of Greece's closo re
lationship with the British royal family
did not exist, tho circumstances of his
death would debar the court for a tlipo
from social functions,
Will Mourn Three Months.
It Is expected that court mourning will
be announced for threo months and that
all official engagements except the most
necessary ones will bo cancelled.
It Ih expected thnt the body of the
murdered king will be taken to Athens
for burial aboard a worship. II went' to
Salonlkl immediately nfter the occupa
tion of that city and remained there In
