heavy and valuea have shown an easier ten
dency during the last day or two. ,
Not enough was done In the stocker and
feeder end of the .market to make baals
for comparisons. Some of the sellers who
made the biggest concession yesterday
cashed a few cattle fairly early that they
called about steady, but outside of that lit
tle or nc trading had been done, and bids

CHICAGO GRAIN AND PROVISIONS. ,
Trader Watch War New Carefully ; and
Trice Move Upward. ,
Chicago, Nov. 22. Grain traders devoted
chief attention to the war news today and
prices most of the time moved upward. Corn
gained Vic to n net, closing unaettled with
January $1.20 to (1.20-4, and May $1.17.
Oats advanced e to lo. In provisions
the outcome varied from 205 rents decline
to a rise of 16 cents. Corn values tended
to ease down at the outset, owing to re
port that western roads would receive more
car soon to move supplies from the country.
Present scantiness ot receipts, however, to
gether with unwelcome rain and mild
temperatures made would-be sellers cautions
and the market gradually developed a bullish
character that caused reaction to prove only
transient. Reports that the British had
achieved furher success received eager no
tice and appeared to encourage buying. Un
usual strength of oat served also aa a stim
ulating factor. Business, taken as a whole,
lacked volume and the market had a more
or less nervous aspect throughout.
Oat climbed to a new high lovel for the
season. Meagernes of arrival was largely
responsible.
Good buying on the part of commission
houses rallied the provision nurket from an
early setback. The temporary decline was
due to absence of support rathor than to any
aggressive selling.

Trading Primarily Influenced
by Course of Foreign Events ;
Market Hardens From
Irregular Opening.
New York. Nov. 22. Trading in Itorks to
day wa again primarily Influenced by the
course of foreign events. From an irregular
opening tho market hardened generally, but
mainly in specialties, those advancing 3 to
3 points.
In the last half of the session when
dealings diminished visibly, prices reacted
3 to 3 points, shippings and steel pointing
the way. The reversal waa concurrent with
advices of a new Teutonic offensive in Italy
and another sharp decline in exchange on
Rome.
Leaders fluctuated within a radius nf 2
point. United State Steel' minimum of
96 and maximum of 98 being typical of
the movement In industrials a well a rails,
Reading waa th only tranaportatlon Issue
to display strength although forfeiting the
greater part of Its 2 point gain.
Early activity centered aroOnd the specu
lative war shares which owe their occasional
prominence to pools are professional inter
ests. Temporary strength in Motors, Indus
trial Alcohol and Distiller Securities, occa
sioned hurried short covering. Sales ot
stocks amounted to 69,0000 shares.
Declaration of the "extra" 8'a per cent
dividend on Lackawanna Steel and omission
of the recent "extra" quarterly disburse
ment on Brooklyn Union Uaa became known
after the close ot the market
September returns of a number ot rail
roads disclosed another large gap between
operating and net revenue, the latter being
less by almost $4,000,000 than In the cor
responding month last year.
The strength of franc wa In striking
contrast to the new minimum of $(.36 for
Itres. Loral money rate manifested in
creasing ease, but time rate held firm.

EASTERN BOY LIKES
LIFE AT FORT OMAHA
W. Monoghan Writes Letter tc
Home Town Paper Praising
Environment in the
Balloon School.
A big boost is given the Fort
Omaha balloon school by W. Mo
noghan in a letter to his "home town" '
paper at Trenton, N. J. He rebukes
slackers and ark'ises all nf h'ta frwWa
of military age to hasten to the
colors. His letter says in part:
"I have been at Fort Omaha foi
about six months. The work is very
interesting as we are making a study
of the balloon and have almost no in
fantry drill. We are completely
equipped with the exception of am
munition, and afe holding ourselves
ready to be transferred to active ser
vice immediately. We expect to go
either to St. Lena or directly to
France. Everybody is hoping for an
early opportunity to meet the Huns.
"I do not think it would be possible
to get together a finer bunch of fel
lows than are in our 'outfit Men
from all parts of the country and
from every walk of life make up our
quota. I don't know why the young
men of the country wait to be draft
ed. It seems as if they are obstinate
and won't go until it is necessary. If
they knew what they are missing
there would be a rush o get in. Moth
ers should not be afraid to let their
boys go, for they will be well taken
care of. The Young Men's Christian
association holds at least three en
tertainments each week and of the
highest class. Promise has been mad;
that Harry Lauder will be here this
winter. v
Lauds Y. M. C. A.-
"If a boy wishes (o attend church
on Sunday, he has only to hand in his
name at the Young Men'S Christian
association desk, and an automo
bile will be ready to transport
him to any 'church he desires. The
people are kind and often take the
boys home to dinner. I have been to
dinner two or three times with a man
who is head of the grain exchange in
this city. After dinner he takes me
for an automobile ride through the
country and finishes off the after
noon wun a gooa supper in some
cafe. I am entirely satisfied with
army life and am getting more than
I ever expected.

"i raining observation is in full
swing here. A bombitjg detail, locat

a smoke bomb, whenever they see a
balloon up in the air. When the ob
server in the balloon sees the smoke,
he telephones down from the basket,
telling whether it is a hit or a miss.
The man on the ground takes every
thing down on a recorder. ' I have )

Patrons of Store Restaurants
Like Wheatjess Day Minus
rie crust 01 cornmeai ana granam ,
was served on wheatless day at the .
Green room at the Brandeis stores,
and pie crust of cornmeal and rye'
flour wis served at the Cricket room '
of Surgess-Nash.
And the people liked it. "Many peo-
pie stopped and complimented us on y
our dinners," said lrs. Hutchinson,
buyer for the dining room at the
Brandeis stores. Many of them told
us on meatless day that they were
glad to eat a lunch without meat and '
that they believed it would be better
for them if they had more of these
days."
"We saved fully ISO pounds of meat
on meatless day," said Lester An
derson, manager of the Cricket room
at Burgess-Nash. "I would estimate
we saved 100 pounds of beef and at
least 50 pounds of other meats on
that day. I am strongly in favor of
observing these regulations to ? the
letter. The patrons of the Cricket
room seemed well pleased."
Mrs. Hutchinson could not give
exact figures as to what amount of
meat had been saved on meatless day
at the Green room, but said the regu
lations had been observed strictly. .
At the Burgess-Nash store 90
pounds of white bread were saved on
wheatless day.
