CHICAGO GRAIN AND PROVISIONS
Featarre nf the Tradla aad Closing;
Prices oa Board of Trad.
CHICAGO, Dec. 23. Increased foreign
demand stimulated buying of wheat to
day, and the market to the highest price
jrei on mo iio crop. ins cicee wan
nervous at Wt cents to 8 cents net ad
vonce, with December at I1.24H, and May
at $1.2Ms. Corn wound up with a gain
of A,o to iHc and oats of 4jHc to Sc.
In provisions the outcome ranged from
Hc decline to a rise of 15iftl7Vtc.
Unexpected strength at Liverpool gave
the wheat market here an upward swing
right at the outset. British cables. In
stead of reflecting to any extent the
previous day's break on this side of the
Atlantic showed a tightening of values,
and told of Increasing scarcity and of a
prospect that world shipments this week
other than from America would be dis
appointingly small.
Estimates of export business in wheat
generally ran above l.OJO.uOO bushels,
chiefly hard winter grades to go by way
of the null or Mexico.
Corn rose with wheat, and touched a
new high price record for this season's
crop. At first, however, favorable
weather put the bulls at a disadvantage
notwithstanding: the smallneaa of arrivals
and the Increasing reports of car shortage.
Oats had some Independent strength on
account of a renewal of export demand.
Provisions averaged higher as a result
of scattered buying from commission
houses. Lard was relatively weak. It
was said that lard stocks were piling up,
end that some hedging as to lard was
being done by packera.

Coffee Market.
NEW YORK, Dec. 23 COFFEE The
market for coffee futures was unsettled
today by near months' liquidation, which
seemed to be promoted by predictions
that some low-rade coffees In the local
stock would be delivered on contract.
The opening was 1 point higher and late
months were sustained by the buying nf
near months' sellers or scsttered cover
ing, with July selling sround 78c and
fccptemoer at s.Kfic. December, however,
broke to 6.45c and January to . 60c, with
the market closing net unchanged to 10

HOOS There was another heavy run
here this morning, arrivals amounting to
240 cars, or about IS.OuO head all told. Of
these Armour Co. received forty-five
cars direct from JMoux City, so that less
thsn 200 cars were actually on sale. This
week's receipts amount to 70,P44 head, be
ing 18.0U0 larger than last week, 81.000
heavier than two weeks sgo and 2V,0(i0
greater than for the same days last year,
while there Is only one market day left
thla week, Saturday being Christmas. It
seems certain that the five days' total
will be larger than for six days last
week, which means a new record for a
December week.
Packer trade got off to a rather slow
stsrt and some of the early purchases
looked fully 6c lower than the general
killer trade yesterday. When the bulk
began to move, however, a good many
sales were made at ateady prices, while
many others looked nearly as good as
yesterday.
The markets have been so uneven the
last three or four days thst It Is very
bard to make a general comparison.

India Prince Wins
Military Cross
For His Gallantry
(Correspondence of The Associated Press )
IXNTON. Nov. India's youngest
war prince has Just won the Military
cross for marked gallantry. He Is Hecond
Lieutenant Rena Jodha Jang Bahadur of
the Thirty-ninth Clarhwal rifles, grand
son of the Maharajah of Nepal. The of
ficial account of hla bravery says:
"During a feint attack north of the I.
Rasse canal he commanded a double
company with great ability and consplou
014 gallantry In face of a severe fire
from rifles, machine (una, hand grenades
and bombs. His brsvery waa previously
observed on September 25, when he led
hla men with marked gallantry right up
to the German wire under heavy rifle
and machine gun fire. '
Ths prtnes Is now In a London hospital
recovering from two wounds received In
the La Basse encounter. He Is something
less than 26 years old.
"I take my men Into action a tried with
kukris as well as rifles," ha told in In
terviewer at the hospital, "but we don't
often get a rhsnce to uss the knives.
When we get nesr the enemy they al
ways surrender. They have heard of our
kukris.
"In peace and war we keep up our
skill In ths use of tha kukri. At our
principal festival every man has to use
his knife. Ws hava goats and buffaloes
for victims. If a man takes two strokes
to dlspstch his animal. Instead of doing
It with on clean stroke, he la disgraced."

LONDON, Nov. SO The heartlesaness
of tha red tape system la shown In a let
ter written by a mother to one of the
London papers, who Instead of a letter
from her soldier son, now In the trenches,
received ths following typewritten notice
from the military censor: "letter do
stroyed. This patent tof envelope la ob
solet. and IU use Is forbidden."
Lately la was decided that the green
envelopes served out to the soldiers In
Franc should not b used, possibly be
cause they hsd fallen Into the hsnds of
spies. But th act of the censor fell hard
en the mother, who writes:
"My son was sent to France In the first
week of February, and has had no leave.
He came out of hospital on October T,
wher be had been a month (during
which time not one of his letters waa for
warded, each on coming back to us),
snd was sent straight up to the front
linn again.
"We hav heard nothing about him
sine October 11, so our anxiety can be
understood. A comrade wrote to tell us
he was missing and thst th sergeant

"Our Indignation may b imagined
when we received, not news of our dear

But One Attempt .
To Interfere with
Prosecution of War
(Correspondence of the Associated Tress.)
PARIS, Dec. 10 In th sixteen months
slnos Franc went to war It Is declared
that there has been only on case of an
attempt made by vlolenc to Interfere
with the concentration of th army and
th prosecution of th war. This fact
la being pointed out In Justification of
th action which Minister of the Interior
Malvy took In resisting suggestions that
all revolutionary leaders, anarchists and .
persons suspected of disloyalty to the
republlo be arrested en th eve of thi
Issuing of th general mobilisation order.
Th nam of 8,000 of thess suspects
were, previous to ths war. Inscribed In
what was known aa "Not Book B."
It had been the government's plan. In
case of mobilisation, to hav all ' these
people confined, at leaat while the mobi
lisation waa going on. but sWnlster Malvy,
on whom th responsibility devolved,
found himself between two fires. ' Ths
socialist leaders Implored him not to
tak action, declaring It would only In
flame turbulent element. On the other
hand, th pollc and cautious memberi
of th cabinet endeavored , to ' Impress
upon him th gravity of th responsi
bility hs would assum In leaving at
liberty persons who hsd boasted that
In cass of war they would prevent th
mobilisation of th army by violence.
Jean Jaureg, leader of th socialist
party, who was to fall under an assas
sin's hsnd th very night the mobtllxs
tioa order wss Issued, and Ousts' Herve,
waa had been on of th most violent
antl-mllltant leaders, assured M. Malvy
that th socialists and th member of
tha labor federation would show them
selrea as loysl a any other category of
French citlsens and that It would be a
erlm to Issue order for th arrest of
th men whose name were Inscribed In
"Not Book B."
t'pon their advice Minister Malvy de
cided to tak th chances, snd It la now
pointed out that th results hav been
proof enough that fear ware groundless.
In th on ess In which an attempt
was mad to Interfere with th concen
tration of tha troop, detail of which in
lacking, It I pointed out that members
of th socialist party themselves detected
th attempt and punished It so brutally
that It was not repeated.
Plan to Establish .
Farming Colony
! East of Colon
(Correspondence of the Associated Press.)
PANAMA. Iec. 10. -A start In th col
onisation of th Ban Bias or forbidden
ooast of Panama has been mad In con
formity with recent agreements mad b
twsen th Ran Bias Indians and th gov
ernment of th republlo. President Porrss
bad (ranted a concession to James M.
Hyatt, an American of Colon, to sstab
llsh a large farming colony on th shore
of Msndlnga bay, about fifty miles cast
of Colon.
Ths contract grants Mr. Hyatt thirty
hectares of land on which the new town
Is to be built. Immediately adjacent to
the town site there are 8". 000 hectares, or
12.800 acres, of good agricultural land
that will b cold to th colonist at vry
reasonable rates. This Is to b sold In
ten and twenty-hectar tract at prices
fixed by the government The town lots
are to be sold under the same conditions,
Ths Isnd is located on the western edge
of the forbidden coast and lies along the
shores of Maud in ga bay whsr th San
Bias Indians are the most friendly to for
eigners. The farm lands sre In th valley
of Navandl river and ar ssld te be very
rich and fertile.
This wtll be the first serious effort to
open this coast to settlement by foreign
ers. It hss been closed since the early
Hpanlsh conquest, th San Bias Indiana
having consistently resented the Intrusion
of all foreigners.
