The law of Missouri forbid an Insurance

OMAHA, Aug. 30, 1913.
Tho bull longs In corn will not permit
ft 'further price recession In that grain If
It Is possible to prevent the market tak
ing a downward course. This waB clearly
demonstrated yesterday by the many
bullish Items spread before tho specula
tive world In the yellow cereal, and some
ot these Items were ot a most Influential
character. Sentiment on corn was mod
erately bearish, but those who felt values
must seek a lower level becnuso of tho
Increased offerings of the cash article
by country holders seemed to lack the
necessary backbone with which to make
a firm stand by putting out short lines.
The September future was off as much
as Tic at one tlmo during the session and
this was lHo below the highest level re
ported. There was buying on price setback-,
however, the support coming from
the larger holders, as well as the eleventh
hour bull. The more deforred months
wero Independently weak and strong by
JHS?" nnd tne net Kalns for tho day were
Hwtfc.
The secretary of the Kansas Grain
Dealora association sent out a most
ridiculous report on the prospective yield
of corn in tho "Sunflower" state, placing
it at only three-quarters of a bushel per
acre, while the best Judges of tho pros-
StLve.cf?p. thnt country placo It at
e!lal.f ,thal of 1912- wh" It was 174.000,

CIIIOAGO OUAI.t AND PROVISIONS
Features of the Trnd luff and Closing
Prices on Hoard of Trade.
CHICAGO, Aug. 30. All grains ad
vanced today, liberal buying In antici
pation of the two-day holiday Bunday
and Monday (Labor 'day) creating a
strong and active market. Corn, the
most active of the grain pits, made a net
gain of !Jc to S0c, wheat rose Hftlic
io -nunc ana oats finished with an up
turn of Knvmic Provisions closed Ir
regular 121415c lower to 15o advance.
In addition to buying of corn by shorts
the market was strengthened by higher
cables, by estimates that the year's crop
would show a shortage of 483.000,000 bush
els as compared with last year's output
and by the fact that offerings were
comparatively limited. September ad
vanced . to 73c and December to 6314c,
Both options showed firmness and ex.
cept for a few small reactions, follow
ing profit-taking sales, values held up
finally all day, closing at or very neat
the top. Firmness of cash corn also
helped futures. Some experts predicted
that corn prices next winter and spring
will break all records.
Wheat was helped by firmness of corn
after a rather easy opening on weaker
cables and forecast for good weather.
A feature of wheat trading was chang
ing of large holdings of September to
December. This helped support prices
for the deferred months and yet It did
not materially depress the near option,
as there was renewed talk of consid
erable export business In prospect Pri
mary arrivals of wheat are beginning to
show the effect , of decreased sales by
farmers, who are holding for better
prices.
Oats were helped by firmness of other
grain, but trade was not large.
Provisions were dull and lower except
In pork, which scored a 15c advance in
the September delivery on heavy cover
ing by shorts.

CATTLE No cattlo of any consotiuonce
were on sale today, but for the woek re
ceipts foot up about 23.0W heac, and are
the largest of any wpck since the open
ing of the range season ttnd slightly
larger than the corresponding weok of
last year. Under the Influence of large
receipts at all the market points at tho
beginning ot the week prices broke
sharply, but lator on, an receipts became
lighter, the decllno on most kinds ot
cattle was recovered. With the exception
of Monday the market for tho week has
beon in a very satisfactory condition.
Cornfed beeves ot good qaullty have
beon In moderate supply throughout the
week, and they are at the close, of any
thing, a little stronger than a week ago.
On the other hand the common to
medium grades are a little easier. Range
beeves did not recover all the decllno
at the beginning of the week, and arc
still 10016c lower than one weex ago.
Cows and heifers are steady with a
week ago.
Stock cattle and feeders suffered a
more severe break at. the beginning ot
the week than any other kind ot cattle,
but they rapidly .recovered under the In
fluence of free buying and at the cIosa
of the week are steady with last week's
close.

little done during tho first hour this
morning. Somo few hogs wero sold on a
steady basis, but most talesmen pre
ferred to work the -market out before
doing anything. Shippers started out by
taking a lew loads at practleally the
same figures as were paid yesterday.

so heavy as on previous days ot the week.
and as mere was nine compnuiiuii ii
this division the market Bhowed none pt
the strength that featured it during the
first tour days of tho week. Packers were
rather slow In getting started, but as
soon as shippers had bought a fow they,
commenced bidding about (o higher, and
most of the sales were made on this
basts. Towards the last end the market
reached the highest point of the day.
and some sales made at this time looked
to be a flat dime higher. A few loads
did not arrive until everything else had
been sold, but the lato arrivals were In
keen request and prices remained fully
steady with the best time. Generally
speaking the market Is fully a .nickel
l,V?her than yesterday's average. Bulk
sold at $7.9008.06, and tops reached $8.55,
just a nickel below yesterday's best
P For the week, values are practically un
changed. Other markets have all shown
more or less weakness, but the local de
mand has been good, especially during
the last three days and prices are fully
steady, with a wes ago. Bulk of the hogi
sold today In the same notches, as on lc
Saturday, and while tops are some higher,

Receipts numbered about 91 cars or 6,100
head. For the week supplies are fairly
liberal, the total being 37,072, as agalnu

BHEBP Tnere was nothing nw In the
trad this inorninx aside from the fact
that one of the porKers received direct
1, lr.rar shloment of Wvomlnir lamh.
While there were a few odds and ends of
01a enoep pn iu, mum wrru no otfer
tngs on the market to amount to any
thing. , .
Though the week's receipt have ex
ceeded those ot any week since the be
ginning of the range season, they have
been light, contrasted with the corre
spondtng time a year ago, and on tho
whole, a very large percentage of them
have been suitable as killers, leaving the
feeder market very moderately supplied.
On Monday and Tuesday feeder lambs
wcie in lairiy gooa supply, out irom then
on the supply gradually became smaller.
Both the packer and feeder buyers held J
good orders practically all the week, an
ns a rule, a brisk trade characterised the
general market nearly every day. During"
tho first half of the week fat lambs 1
showed an advance of 26040c from Inst
wtek'a closing prices, but right nt tho
week end the demand dropped off n little,
resulting In a decllno of 1O0WC on Friday
nnd leaving the market only about lOif
15c higher than a week ago. On the othct
hand, anything oil the order of mutton
held up pretty well, showing no tendency,
to decllno and being at the close of the
week on a basis of 15026c better than
lust Friday.
There Is nothing now to report In the
feder situation except that feeder lambs
nre now selling at good, strong prices,
with feeder yearlings and ewes possibly
a dime higher The supply and demand
of fettler lambs has been subjected to
little, If any, change, and as a matter ot
ffict, bo few aged offerings have been
on sale that It Is hard to compare prices
on that kind ot stock.

Council Bluffs
NINETY THOUSAND ATTEND
Carnival Crowds Exceed All Others
in Number.
NEW LOCATION IS PLEASING
Will Be Mnde Permanent Site for
Shoir nnil Indian Creek Will Be
Changed Into Thing- of
I Ilenuty.
The 1918 Council Bluffs carnival closed
last night with an attendance equal, If
not larger, than that ot any other day
during tho wuek, and when tho last
tickets were sold the footings showed thnt
more than 90,000 people had paid the
10 cent admission feo to enter tho
grounds. This establishes a new record
for carnival attendance. The largest
total attendance for any previous car
nival was approximately 78,000.
The carnival commlttco and the Com
mercial club members are not better
pleased, however, with tho financial suc
cess than they are with the character
of the people whoso princnce In such
numbers mado the fete possible. It repre
sented the best cltlicnshlp of Council
Bluffs and surrounding country,
With the. exception1 ot one little In
cident on Friday night when two W-year-old
boys got Into a fight and had to b(
taken from tho grounds, not an arrest
was made nnd not a person was ejected.
Tho men who devoted weeks of their
time without a penny ot compensation
felt pardonable pride last night rfhen
the lights were turned out for the last
time, and the final review and footings
showed the splendid success that fol
lowed their efforts. As every dollar of
the money earned Is to be used to fur
ther the general welfare of the' city, they
felt that they wero entitled to the con
gratulations that hdvo been showered
upon them. The character of the people,
their good work attracted was Indicated
by $00,000 worth of automobiles parked
at tho entrance one night. ,
Robert R. Wallace, the treasurer, who
has always been with the very last men
to leave tho carnival grounds each night,
which has never been earlier than mid
night, did not leave last night with hts
bodyguard and cash-carriers until after
1 o'clock. Then he just had time to de
posit the money In the big safe where
It has been protected each night, and
catch the train for Spirit Lake.
lie will rejoin his family there today
and return with them later In the week.
George F. Hamilton, E. L. Duquette, F.
B. Cox, George Qerner, J. B. Long and
other members of tho carnival committee,
all active business men and the heads
ofof arge enterprises, have devoted all
of the last week and the greater part
of the previous two weeks to th carnival
business.
The success of the carnival In Its new
location and the very limited objections
of adjacent property owners and resi
dents has determined the carnival man
agers and the Commercial club to make
the Auditorium the enter of future fetes.
Another yer two new concrete bridges
will be built, giving Increased opportun
ities for the "transfiguration" of Indian
creek. Plans are already matured to
n.ake It something of real beauty next
season.

If It might, and thnt the Omaha & Coun
cil Bluffs Street Railway company will
hnvo a competitive bidder when the time
comes for the salo of the road by the
receiver under direction of the court at
somo future date not yet forecasted.
A significant petition wns presented

bench nt Council Bluffs yesterday ask
ing for authority to make a Contract
with tho receivers of the Wabash rail
road by which tho Short Lino may use
tho terminal facilities, Including freight

wns signed by John J. Splndler and
August F. Dnmmrow, trustees of the
railroad property appointed by the court
upon nppltcatton of tho bond holders, and
mado separately also by Banker
Dftmmrow ns receiver.
Thcro was no opposition to the ap
plication, but there was an undercurrent
ot sentiment, not given lexal expression,
that Indicated thnt such an arrange
ment would meet tho fullest approval of
tho patriotic farmers, who have placed
nearly t,100,000 of first mortgages on their
farms to pay for tho building ot ttu
rood, Judge Wheeler approved the ap
plication and authorlied the trustees and
receiver to enter Into n wrltton contract
with the Wabash officials for the purpose
desired. The order Is very broad and
confers all of the authority required.

The contract Is for the uso of tho Wa
bash tracks from the little station near
the Iowa School for the Deaf, nnd desig
nated as Neoga, to Council Bluffs, and Is
to cover the Use of the trackage to nit

terminal facilities within tho city limits.
This will permit freight to bo re
ceived and delivered In tho Wabash yards
nnd freight houses nnd passengers at the
local station and tho Union Pacific trans
fer depot. It means much for the pat
rons ot the Treynor road. Heretofore all
freight and passengers had to be ro
celved and delivered nt the Iowa School
for the Deaf, a distance of more than
three mtlea from the business center of
tho city. Tho passengers were well
taken caro ot by the street railway com
pany, whoso cars run every hour or less
from thq school grounds to the Peart and
Broadway, street Intersection, but all of
the freight hnd to be hauled by wagon
the long Intervening distance.
Passengers may still uso tho street
car servlca to good advantage, but tho
new arrangement wilt be of greatest Im
portance to the, freight business of the
Troynor line.
There Is now much apeoulatlon con
cernlng tho final outcome, whether nr
"t,Jt, Js lhe, tlrst .stnp. toward, tho ab

Wabash. Tho financial situation1 of the
Wabash and tho fact that It Is In tho
hands of recolvers does. not epcourago tho
oeuet mat tho Treynor lino Is to be
bought, but tho receivers could prob
ably socuro the necessary court order to
iaao oyer tne little road by purchase or
10ns icaie ir they deslro to do so. Ix.
cal reeling, hdwever, Is very strongly In
favor of tho ownership or management ot

RICHARD LYON'S FLIGHT
NOT QUITE FAST ENOUGH
After breaking his parole within a few
days, which, If observed, would have kept
him from serving a wholu year In Jail on
state vagrancy charves. Dick T.vnn.
yesterday hailed Into police court and
sent uacK to the county Jail. Richard
has become so addicted to breaking
pledges that he smashed the promise to
return quietly to the Jail when Court
Officer Crum accompanied him there In
the police patrol yragon.
When Crum climbed down from the
wagon In front of the 1u.lt entrance, DIcit
followed him, but Instead of going lownrd
tho Inviting Jail door ho whirled suddenly
nnd ran south past the county court
house, headed for the alley south of Fifth
avenue, where there are plenty of barns
and shfds that could have hidden him.
Crum followed, shouting for Lyons to
stop, but he didn't stop.
Then the officer pulled his gun and
fired a fow shots. The sound of the shots
and the whirring bullets added wings to
Dick's flying feet, nnd Crum realised
that it was a foot race and not a fight.
Crum Is somewhat of a foot racer and so
Is Dick, but the officer hud the advan
tage of being In practice. lie pressed
Dirk so closely that the fugitive had no
opportunity to leap over alley fences,
and the chase had to continue four blocks
before Lyons was caught at the Groat
Western depot.
Ho was led back to the Jail, perspiring
and breathless, and may havo to remain
alt winter.
Council Bluffs
Woodwkrcl Sends
Out an Appeal for
Factory Workers
John O, Woodward, head of the Wood
ward candy factory, where from 200 to
400 women and girls aro employed con
stantly, hns found great difficulty in se
curing th help required to meet the de
mands ot his business. Recently .13 an
nounced a plnn for providing rcputaio
and reasonably cheap board and lodging
for girls who catnc from the cuuntty aid
surrounding towns. He ns'tcd thruiigh
the newspapers the nnnes and addreuMi
ot householders who might have rooms
to rent, stating that references as to re
spectability would bo required, and thut
nil girls sent Into such families would he
vouched for In the snme way. Ho askel
for definite prices of rooms and board
thnt would ennblo hint to give definite'
answers to girls writing for employmu-it.
He hat now established n bureau ot In
formation that will be alike helpful to
girls and women seeking employment and
to reputabla pooplo having rooms to rent
Following this tine, Mr. Woodward yes
terday made this appeal to the Commer
cial club:
You have been endeavoring to boost
Council Bluffs for a number of years.
You have dono somo hard work and gone
to a great deal of expense, Ws, however,
think that until tho people ot Council
Bluffs will tnku a alleht Interest In the
small factories now located here, l Is
going to be Impossible to induce other
people to come hero and locate. Tho lp
ratloii of ConnJl Bluff Is the beat In
the country as a distributing point for
manufactured aitlclso. Our railroad
facilities are equal to any; In fact, there
Is no complaint to mnke na far as tho
nnnnrtunltlf. nf ilnlntr huslness are COh-
corncd. The tolnt, however, Is that Coun
cil limns at present seems to 00 unuuiu
to lurnisn sufficient moor even 10 io.k
cure of the small factories we lime here
now.
in our llttlo business we aro lorceu jo
employ female help, but wo aro rarely
enabled to secure tho services of a Inrge
enough number of girls to take caro ot
our business. This Beenis to be alt wrung.
in tho first place. It Is not because ino
alrln sr nnt In fVinnrll llluffs. A UttlO
drive around the city, or poastnff moving
picture shows, you win see gins enouii
tottering around to keep a number or
factories like ours supplied, but It Is ovi
dont that tho parents ot these girls would
prerer to have them waste uioir urn- m
Idloneas rather than to be emplocd tn a
clean and profitable occupation. .
As far na wages aro concerned, wo can
prove that girls who are willing to work
and will pay attention to their business
while at work, earn In our factory double
tho amount of money during the course
of a weok that girls are paid In like oc
cupations In factories In New York City
and Boston. It seems that tho people of
Council Bluffs ought to taite interest
enough In a manufacturing concern Ilk
ours, that Is constantly advertising the
town all over the country.
Our goods are sent out under our name
and location to every large city In the
country from New York to Sari Fran
cisco and from New Orleans to Winnipeg,
consequently this little business puts
Council Bluffs on tho map In places
where the town was never heard of. and
we feel thnt It Is the duty of the citizens
of Council Bluffs to at least give us a
little assistance, and alt we ask Is that
they will seo that these Idle glria are
Hont up hero to do a day's work, which
vie aro willing to pay for,
Dr, and Mrs. G-reen
On Lone; Skiff Hide
Friend -of Of. and '.Mrs: W. M. Green,
who started two weeks ago to make a
trip down tho Missouri river to St. Louts
In a rowboat, wero greatly relieved yes
terday when they received tho first tid
ings from the voyagers since they left
Plnttsmouth. While no serious fears, for
their safety were entertained, tho long
silence was beginning to cause apprehen
sion. Dr. Green, writing -from Jefferson City,
Mo., Said they were finishing the first
leg of their long Journey In fine shape,
and had thoroughly enjoyed the trip down
tho river. They have lived In the open
air constantly, camping on the river bank
at night with their tent near enough to
tho water to bo lulled to sloop by the.
murmur of the stream, and going ashore
during the day whenever any particular
bit of scenery attracted their nttentlon.
and remaining at any place Just ns long
as the inclination prompted.
Dr. Green Is a mighty fisherman, but
his letter only contained modest refer
ence to the fact that they have had all
of the fish required for .the table. Mrs.
Oreen was discharged from tho Nicholas
Senn hospital In Omaha only a few weeks
before starting after undergoing a ser
ious surgical operation, and It was to
nurse her back to health that the trip
was undertaken. In this respect It has
been all that was anticipated, They
will continue the skiff ride to St. Louis,
then will take a river boat for Keokuk,
and after knsepctlng tho big dam there
will return to Council Bluffs by train.
They expect to be home by September
I, The open boat .trip from Council
Bluffs to St, Louis covers a distance ot
more than 800 miles.
Theresa Russell Goes
Out on Her Own Bond
Theresa Russell, the young negro
woman who shot and Instantly killed
Earl Edwards, or Earl Stone, was ar
raigned In police court yesterday morn
ing, but before any evidence was taken
her attornoy asked for a change ot
venue to Justice Cooper. The application
was granted by Judge Snyder, with a
sign ot evident relief and appreciation of
the qualifications of Justice Cooper to
hear tho preliminary Inquiry, since he
acted as coroner and heard all of the
evidence adduced at tho Inquest.
The woman was taken before Justice
Cooper Immediately and by advice of her
attorney, Thomas Q. Harrison, waived a
preliminary hearing. The Justice then
made an order holding her to the grand
Jury, fixing her bonds at 1500.
After a conference with County Attor
ney Capell It was agreed to 1st her sign
her own bond, which Is equivalent to let
ting her go on her own recognisance.
The apparently clearly established fact
that tho girl shot her lover In self-defense
when he was choking her Into Insensibil
ity and her complete Justification by the
coroner's Jury leaves so little doubt that
she would bo cleared tf brought to trial
that the county attorney was not In
clined to insist upon holding her. Ho
will, however, submit the evidence to
the grand Jury, but It Is not likely that
an Indictment w(H he returned.
