CHICAGO, Nov. 17. Active buying,
supposed to ho largely for eastern ex

in the last hour, notwithstanding that
previously the bears n4 control of price

of stocks Steadiness ruled at the close,
which was obov last night.
Corn finished unchanged to I-I60 otr.
oats at a shade advance ana provisions

Supposed difficulty In obtaining ocean
vessel charter made tbe enlarged domes
tic supply of wheat look formidable until
the seaboard apparently began to take
the Initiative in earnest cn in ouu siue.
Besides the alleged Inadequacy of the
available freight carrying facilities on
the Atlantic, assertions tnai me wneai
movement to Udwater waa largely
blocked at Buffalo had formed an addi
tional reatralnt on the bull. On the
other hand, the fact that at the same
time Europe was complaining of world
shipments much under requirements
seemed to cut no figure for a while, but
attracted eager attention when the rally
got fairly under way.

ITALY WILL GIVE ALL
Mn p TO CHISTMS SHIP
WASHINGTON, ov. 17.-It1y will glv
all asslstanoo posslbl to tho Christmas
sh'p Jason. Ambassador Thomas Nelson
Page reported today tho Italian minister
for foreign affair had replied to request
for free .transportation of th Jason
Christmas' gifts through Italy, with th
statement that ths Italian government
"will gladly extend every welooms and
hospitality in the port of Genoa to th
Christmas ship Jason, and that every
courtesy and fertt'ty possible will ba ren
dered tha vecael on tU arrival at that
port"
the machine gun.
"The second targ.t wa a house occu
pied by snipers. This was set slight by
a hell and when th occupant bolted
they came under the rapid fire of the In
fantry, Th third target ws another
building, from which the German were
driven and then were caught In the open
by shrapnel. On of our heavy batteries
also obtained Mveral direct hit on the
enemy' gun a
Comparative ft a let.
"Thursday, November S, was soother
comparatively quiet day, there being no
attempt at an Infantry attack against
any point of our position. Southeast of
Ypre th Germans maintained a heavy
bombardment of one section of our front,
but generally peaklng their artillery fire
wa not o heavy a it had been some
what to tha south.
"Th French mad alight progress and
recaptured om ground farther to the
aouth. Two village which the nemy
had captured and their line of rldgs close
by were heavily bombarded by British
and French artillery from the high
ground to the west. The effect of thi
cannonading could be seen to some ex
tent, though th village under fir were
partially obscured from view by th
smoke of bursting shell end resembled
the crater of volcanoes belching fir and
fume. ,
"At one place th gaunt wreck of an
old church tower and th blackened re
mains of a few house around It would
emerge for a moment, only to bo again
blotted out In a pall of smoks.
Seem rd to Melt Away.
"The lone and straggling villages, when
they became temporarily visible, seemed
to melt away and assume odd and fan
tastic shape a th houses crumbled
nd block of maaonry were thrown
hither and thither by the blasting effect
of the lyddite and melinite.
"The result of the alllea' artillery
work wa moat satisfactory. Whan th
German war seen to be running from
helter, w hich had ceased to set ss such,
they were caught and mowed down by
the rapid fire of the French artillery,
Against a suitable target the action of
the French field gun la literally terrific
and must be seen to be realised.
"On ths whole, tha ground which the
Germans have gained has so far proved
a somewhat barren acquisition. It I so
exposed that It proves a death trap for
their troop and they ran dorlve no ad
vantage from It possession.
"All along tha rest of our lino nothing
of special Interest occurred.
Planes Near aeooaa.
"Farther south our aeroplanes and
those of th French scored a success by
partially destroying two of th old fort
of Lille. Fort Kxiglo waa blown up on
the 4th and Fort Carnot on the 6th. They
probably were used as magsxlnes and
may hav been of some tactical Import
ance In the line of entrenchments,
"On Friday, th (th, th attack was
renewed south of th Menl-Ypres high
road, but was repulssd without difficulty.
Against ths southeast of Ypres, which
town had been subjected to a bombard
ment during th night and waa also
helled during the day, a fairly strong
advance was made In th afternoon and
the enemy gained soma ground.
"Th French, however, made a counter
stroke, supported by us, and by nightfall
had recovered all the lost ground. A
French attack on two village which had
been shelled Thursday mad considera
ble progress, on point being captured;
but tho enemy contrived to render tb
position untsnabis, and our ante had
retired from th hill by duck,
"On our center nothing of Interest oc
curred. On our right, south of th Lys,
th enamy made two unsuccessful night
attacks.
"On Saturday th (th on our loft,
tho eaemy la tho aftemooa again at
tacked to th vast and southeast . of
Ypres atong tha Mania road. Our lias
was at on point forced back, but tha
ground lost wa ragslriad after a few
minutes.
"About I a. to. tha Gorman appeared
occupy th trenches and houses hs had
secured, but was unable to reinforce thi
point and so consolidate hi position, for
the ground wa awept by the fit of our
gun and enfiladed from our trenches.
'To th aouth of the Ly the hostile attacks-were
renewed without success on
ths night of November 7-8, and on our
right also a minor erfort met with tha
same fat."
Destrnctloa of Tares.
"Monday the ninth wa a compara
tively quiet day. On our left the shell- '
Ing wa lea In thla direction. Th Ger
mans for th time being desisted from
making attack in force and eonfinod
their efforts to minor asssults and th
wsnton destruction of Ypres, which,
with Louvaln and Rhelm. Is apparently
to be Included among th monument to
Oerman cult tire.
"During th fighting of tb sixth, eighth
and tenth, 110 prisoners and sis machine
gun were captured by us In this quar
ter. Slightly to the south the French
made some progisss, while on our center
the Gltuatlon remained much tha same
' as It had been. Th house and trenchea
gamed by the German remained In their
hand during th day. but measure were
takpti to overcome their resistance and
at nightfall part of tha ground was re
taken by us.
"It Is true that a fona1derb1 propor
tion of the masses recently thrown Into
the field against the British haa con
sisted of hastily trained and Immature
men, but the great fact remains that
the Ill-assorted Is vie hav not hesi
tated to advanco against highly trained
troop. In spit of lack of officer. In
pit of Inexperience, boys of It snd 17
hav faced our guns, hav - marched
steadily up to th mussles of our rifls,
snd hav met death In droves, without
flinching.
"Such is the effect of a century of na
tional discipline. That th men subjected
to It are th victim of an autocratla
military cast doe not alter th fact.
TheV hav accepted that system as neces
sary to the attainment of national Ideal.
"However discordant are the elements
which make up th German empire, by
force of the Prussian war machine they
have one and all been welded together
to fight for national existence, and by
their action It ia evident that for them
'Deutschland uber all.' I no empty
cry."
