, DUN'S TRADE REVIEW.
Trend la AH Una Toward Further Increase
la Activity.
New Tork Sept II. Dun' review tomor
row will say:
i ''In nearly all Important Industrial and
mercantile line the trend 1 toward a fur
ther Increase in activity and Is exceptionally
marked In some directions. Manufacturing
nlants are being operated to their capacity,
the shortage In the supply of labor being
practically th. only deterrent to additional
expsnslon.'
"The demand for fall merchandise Is en
couraglngly brisk and th. general business
sentiment Is optimistic In the central
statee the movement of commodities con
tinues well austsined and reflects pronperous
conditions. . In the south the Inquiry for
staple goods is increasingly active, while
western commerclel centers report substsn
tlal Increase In business over last year.
"On the Pacific cosst the favorable crop
prospects In that region, together with the
generally high prices for agricultural prod
ucts, are Indicative of still further progress.
Retail trade drags at some points, owing
labor controversies, but this condition is
regarded as temporary, and demand for fall
merchandise, aa a whole, Is maintained In
volume that reflects aa expanding purchaa-
ig -power on the part ox the people gener
ally. Weekly bank clearings, 14,338,197,110."

CHICAGO OBA1N AND PROVISIONS.
Irratralar Opening, Followed by OeSeral Ad
ranee and Decided Reaction.
Chicago. Sept. 11. Serious drought- reports
from Argentine tended to handicap the bears
ta whsat. Largely In consequence, th mar
ket, although unsettled at tha close, waa
to 1C net higher, with December at
u na to 11.4141. and May at 11.10. Corn
flnlshsd 101 to lc up and oata with
a gain of th 0c. In provisions,
ths outcome vartsd from five pants dclln
,10 a riss or sio.
It waa avldsnt at th outset that yester
day's sudden break Inth prlc of wheat,
had taksn place without any ' adequate
caiiss, but confidence aaemed to have been
shaken ao badly that until late In the
aeaslon rallies were not well maintained.
Ail developments tended ta establish that
no Argentine wheal of any consequent.
waa headed toward th United Btat.s and,
that owing to a lack of vesssls, no future
largfl shipments could b looked for. On
th. other hand, tha bears mads much of
ths fact that recant purchasing for th
Oresk govsrnment had turned out to. be
only half a larg had been supposed.
Bulla finally appear, to hev. obtained a
clear advantage, hewovor, after the receipt
of' word that the crop situation In Argentine
was critical, owing to drought.
Resides tha menacing Argentina crop out
look, an enlargement of export sales In the
United Stataa'had much to do with strength
ening whest prices hr In ths last hour.
It waa aald forelgnera had taken 2,000.000
bushel within 41 hours, and that there were
order for 1,0(0,000 buahehs more at price
which wr only to a -Blight degre out
of Una.
Froat last mint and more predicted for
tonight carried corn valuea upgrads. Ad
vance war checked by knowledge that
large percentage of the crop waa out of
danger. Oat derived firmness chiefly from
corn and wheat. The seaboard gave notice
of 400,000 bushels of oata sold for sxport.
Htaher prices on nogs iirtea provisions.
Belgian relief orders tended also to make
the maraet asosna.

Rev. John F. Poucher, captain and
adjutant of the Fourth Nebraska reg
iment, returnee? home last evening on
a twenty-days', furlough.
' He is also pastor, of Trinity Metho
dist church, Omaha, and he found
most of his congregation idown, at
the station to meet him. v Many of
them came in automobiles and form
ed a regular parade to escort him to
his home. ' "
Captain Poucher left the regiment
at Llano Grande, Jawrr last Monday.
stopping at Several places on the
way home.
"The Nebraska boys are getting
along fine," he said. "They are well
fed and housed and the only thing
that worries them is the feeling of
uncertainty regarding when they are
coming home. The Young Men's
Christian association is doing a great
work. They have a house for head
quarters with every brigade.
Hangers Cause Trouble.
"I believe, from my observations,
that the whole trouble on the bor
der has been caused by the Texas
rangers., these men go about ana
get together bands of Mexicans on
this side of the border and lead them
on to do their work. It is a money
proposition and when the troops are
withdrawn I think the trouble will
start again."
Rev. Mr. Poucher has been "hob
nobbing" with some famous men. He
met rrancis Sayre3, President Wil
son's son-in-lsw, who was down there
for some time, presumably in connec
tion with Young Men Christian as
sociation -work. He also got well ac-
ouainted with Runert Hushes, the
author, who is captain of one of the
New York companies, tie acted as
guide for a day for George Pattullo.
the writer.
"A Strang thing in the Nebraska
regiment is that there are so few dem
ocrats," said Rev. Mr. Poucher.
"There isn't a single officer that 1
know who is a democrat."
It is possible that Captain Poucher
will not return to the border. If the
regiment is likely to be mustered out
very soon he will probably not go
back.
' Besides his other military duties he
preached every Sunday in one of the
Young Men's Christian association
buildings.
Milk Investigation
Added to Bread Probe
Chicago, Sept. 15. A federat in
vestigation of the increase in milk
prices will be added to the list of food
price inquiries now under way in Chi
cago, United States District Attor
ney Clyne announced today.
Clyne said investigators for the De
partment of Agriculture will begin an
inquiry into the milk situation here
within a few days.
The federal 'inquiry into the, in
crease in bread prices was nearing its
end today. It was said bakers had
convinced federal authorities that an
increase in price was necessary be
cause of advanced cost of ingredients,
but no confirmation of the report was
obtained from Clyne.
