CHICAGO CHAIN AND PROVISIONS.
Reaction Follows Rally in Corn Market i
Provisions JacK Bnppon,
Chicago. Aug. 16.--Improved weather con-
ditions more than offset in the corn market
today the bullish effect of unfavorable crop
reports. Prices closed unsettled, o net
lower, with September, 11.61 1.61 and
October 11.6SK 1.63. Oats finished
to ll4o up and provisions off 1235c.
Weakness in the corn market am not oe
velop until after a material new upturn
in values had taken place, the result chler
ly of adverse opinions regarding the crop
situation. In particular, one expert tlgurea
that since August 1 the damage done
amounted to more than 200,000,000 bushels.
Scarcity of offerings, rather than any ur
gent buying accompanied the advance. News
of good rains, however, brought about rather
free selling, and carried values well below
yesterday's finish. With a better moisture
supply and with further downpours In pros
pect, a forecast ot temperatures above nor
mal counted but little as a factor for the
bulls.
Talk of delayed threshing In the north'
west tended to force the oats market up
ward. Gossip was current also that many
Illinois farmers were binning their oats and
would not sell at present levels.
Provisions lacked support Ons of the
reasons given was the fact that stocks of
lard In warehouses here showed a substan
tial Increase.

Ing General Motora from the issues to be

has been one of the most sensational snd
unstable features of the stock market snd
today's action resulted from an exhaustive

Wtr erdsr dominate every line and sup
piles for ordinary purposs are greatly our.
tailed. Conservatism In regular channels,
whether flowing from th damaged oorn
crop In th southwest from lessened de
mand for man' goods fromj belief that
prices have reached senith point or from
restrictions placed upon so-called nonesaen

deed, th great majority of wholesale trade
report testify to continued good demand
ruling, largely, however, on government ac
count, exoeptlon to this being noted in
dispatches from dlstrlot of th southwest,
where both cotton and corn have been hurt
by drought Retail trade 1 fair to .good
for a midsummer period and the same Is
true of collections, sxcspt from the south
west. It need to be reoalled, ot course,
that In th northern halt of th country
crops hsvs been quit uniformly good
snd th hot wav has really accelerated the
ripening of most crops, thus putting j.s

THE LAW.
Section 425S Revised Statutes of Nebraska, 1918. .
"It shall ba unlawful for any member of said Board of Directors
or any employee thereof to' have any pecuniary interest, either di
rectly or indirectly, irr any contract in the connection with th
construction or maintenance of water plant of said Metropolitan
Water District, or be in any way connected with the furnishing
of supplies required by th laid district" - '
On May 31, 1917, the Metaliura Refining Com
pany was incorporated for $10,000, articles of in
corporation being signed by W. J. Barber, purchasing
agent of the Water Board, Homer B. Knouse, engi
neer in the employ of the Water Board, and A. John
son, cleric at the Water Office. They were acknowl
edged before John E. Wilbur, chief clerk at the Water
Office. The business of the corporation was to
manufacture and install hydraulic supplies, appar
atus and utilities. It is reported that R. B. Howell
was interested in this corporation, which immedP
ttely became very busy selling supplies to the Water
Board. The following bills being paid to it: .
July 10, 1917 $ 58.75 .
August 15, 1917 3.50
September 12, 1917 96.25
January 16, 1918 173.00
These bills were allowed by the Board of Di
rectors without dissent. It was hardly possible, how
ever, for some of the members to object, as they were
tarred by the same stick. C. M.(Wilhelm being fa
vored by the allowance of a bill on October 17, 1917,
for $1,444.66 to the Orchard-Wilhelm Co. Sherman
McConnell Co., several items in July, August and
October, 1917. The C. S. Bowman Co. being owned
by F. D. Wead's stepson, receiving fifteen bills total
ing $799.59. '
These bills were contracted without advertising
for bids.. I lay these facts before you without com
ment. But this I will faithfully promise, ' that if I
serve you as a member and director of the -Water ...
Board this practice will cease. i , .

our nation today that makes it
necessary that we elect a man to

not under special obligation to any

pelled to apologize to the people
of this state and of the nation for
having taken a wrong attitude or
position having reference to the
war and other questions. He
hould be a man free from all
these taints and entanglements
and have at heart only the wel.
fare of the nation and the people
whom he is serving. This man is
