Oct. 8. Developments bear ing upon the world conflict exerted far less effect over the stock market today. Dealings were moderately active and well distributed, war shares evincing occasional restraint. There was a noticeable diminution of demand for transportations which served in large measure to sustain the markets of the past fortnight, although that di vision strengthened later. Pools and allied Interests continued ac tive In specialties now commonly designed as peace stocks, notably shippings, oils, tobaccos, motors and their subsidiaries; also coppers and utilities. Marin preferred waa among the most conspicuous issues, recording the new high quotation of 111 4 for the current move ment, at which level It scored an extreme advance of five points. United Fruit and Atlantic Oulf also made appreciable gains. Petroleums were featured by an abrupt advance of seven points for Royal Dutch, but that volatile stock soon reversed Its course, without material effect upon others of tha same class. United States Steel was freely offered at every manifestation of strength, but did not share in the sweeping rally of the last hour, closing at a net loss of a small frac tion. Consolidated Gae, People's Gas, Ohio Gas. Montana Power and American Telephones gains of 3 to 4 4 points on a large turnover In the later dealings and metals made a moderate show of strength. Liberty bonds were firmer on heavy dealings. Marine 6a gained two 'points and Russian 64s and (4s made new maximums for the year on the ''Curb." Total sales, par value, aggregated $9,450, 000. Old United State bond were un changed on call. A varied assortment of issues was singled out for bullish attention In the early afternoon, notwithstanding the per sistent heaviness of United State Steel, Canadian Pacific, Pullman, Chile Copper, Studebaker and United States Rubber, were higher by 14 to 3 points and Marine preferred displayed further strength.

Teace Reports Give Bears Control of Corn Murkest Oats Stronger. Chicago, Oct. 3. Peace reports, especial ly a a exaggerated rumor growing out of unofficial Turkish proposals for an arm istice, gave the bears control of the corn market most of the tWne today. Prices closed nervous. 4 to 14c net lower, with November, $1.29 to $1.24 and Decem ber, $1.264 to $1,364. Oats finished un changed to half cent higher and provi sions varying from $1 to 7o advance. Downturns ln corn started as Boon as trading began and despite subsequent bulges to covering by shorts no sustained strength developed. Word that the new Oerman chancellor would be a recognised opponent of militarism did a good deal to favor the selling side of the market, and so, too, did continued rearward move ments by ths German armies. Then short ly before midday, attention focusaed on rumors about Turkey. A break to the lowest level of the season quickly ensued. The fact, however, that no coVirmatlon of the Turkish gossip was forthcoming led to partial rallies, as ths session neared an end. Moderate buying on the part of cash houses tended to strengthen oats. Besides, rural offerings were light. Provisions weakened, owing chiefly to a setback In the value of hogs. On the declines, though, packer bought lard and ribs, presumably against shipping s.les. Cash quotations: Cern No. 3 yellow, $1.65: No. 3 yellow, $1.4201.48; No. 4 yel low, $1.36.

The continued favorable war news ai.d firmness of Brall restricted selling and about the only demand was attributed to covering by aborts, who paid 9.85c for July and bought September up tn 10.08c. or within 7 points of the mil ium premium over the spot position. There was no business In other months and after opening unchanged to 3 point higher the market cloaed net unchanged, to 7 points higher.

Section Foreman Buys Big Bunch of Liberty Bonds Union Pacific officials and em ployes are making an effort to put their subscriptions to the Fourth Liberty loan over the top before the campaign is inaugurated officially. While they may not succeed, they are of the opinion that they will not be very far from the goal by next Monday. Union Pacific loan subscriptions are rolling in from the western di vision of the road and it is apparent that there is a keen rivalry among the Nebraska, Wyoming and Colo rado men. Of the employes, one of the largest subscriptions has been received from Sam Wilson, a sec tion foreman at Echo. Utah. He has notified the Omaha offices of the company that he has subscribed for $2,000 of the bonds of the Fourth Liberty loan. On the third loan he took $5,000 of the bonds. WAR WORKERS OF OMAHA MARCH IN GREAHARADE (Continued From Page One.) of death. On a big truck was a wicked-looking anti-aircraft gun. One of the most striking features of this division was the gas mask platoon in which every man marched, wearing his gas mask. Maher Cfcand Marshal. The big parade started soon after 2 o'clock, the various divi.ons hav ing formed on streets between Twenty-fourth street and Thirtieth on Farnam street. Major Maher was the grand marshal. Headed by a platoon of police un der Assistant Chief Dempsey, the parade moved east on Farnam street through the downtown streets, fin ally disbanding at Seventeenth street and Capitol avenue. Marshal Maher and the Musical Union band came after the platoonof police and then came the board m governors of Ak-Sar-Ben, costumed and mounted. President E. Buckingham was in command and hese governors rode with him: C. E. Black, George Brandeis. W. D. Hosford, Chares L. Saunders, L." C. Nash, A. P. Guiou. J. E. Davidson and Randall K. Brown. Next came the troops from the two forts 'and then the Grand Army men in automobiles, driven by mem bers of the National League of Wo men's Service. The quartermaster's corps con sisted of about ISO officers and men and 200 civilian employes. An in teresting feature of this division was a "conservation and reclamation truck," which illustrated how Uncle Sam repairs his army equipment. On the truck were two soldiers, one with his clothes badly torn and the other with them mended. Several women were busy sewing and some men were mending shoes. Home Guards. Next fame the Omaha Home Guards and United States guards and then, the entire battalion of high school cadets, the latter led by the! hieh school band. If anybody thinks this war is be ins foueht exclusively by men he should have seen the next divisions of the parade. More than 1,500 women and girls were marching. They had been marshalled, from many organizations doing war work, by Mrs. Charles Offut, Mrs. Julia Nagl James and Mrs. Grace Gholson. The marchers were in their uni forms and carried banners. Mrs. F. W. Carmichael was marshal of the women. The oganizations that marched and their lieutenants were: The National Catholic War coun cil, Mrs. Arthur Mullen, lieutenant; Salvation Army, Captain Ewood, lieutenant; Jewish Welfare board, Miss Blanche Bessel, lieutenant; B'nai B'rith, Miss M. Newman, lieu tenant; American Library associa tion, Miss Edith lobitt, lieutenant; elevator girls, Union Pacific shoo girls; Visiting nurses, Mrs. W. J. Hynes, lieutenant; War Community Service league. Miss Mciveei. lieu tenant; Council of Defense, Mrs. Fernald, lieutenant; Dundee Patri otic league, Mrs. A. S. Williams, lieutenant. Then came the mighty army of the Red Cross, the state organiza tion, Omaha Red Cross chapter and he ambulance corps in tne unitorms that have come to mean so much. The Mothers of Soldiers, carrying service flags, bearing irgm one to four stars each, the canteen workers and the Youne Women's Christian association workers completed the great divisions of women doing war work. All these were greeted with continuous applause as they marched. Then came the most novel feature of the oarade. a human flag formed by 350 marching girls from 7 to 16 years old. ine alternating stripes of red and white were formed by girls dressed in those colors, and the stars by 48 girls, wearing Diue nats forming a perfect representation of "Old Glory. This aroused the great est enthusiasm. The living flag was made under direction of William Bartos, assisted by Mrs. Julia Ste nicka, Mrs. Hannah Korisko and Mrs. N. Hladek. Fire Laddies. The fire department had about 200 men in line led by Chief Salter and Assistant Chief Simpson. In this di vision were engine companies Nos. 1, 2, 3, 4. 5, 7 and 8; hose companies Nos. 11, 12 and 14; hook and ladder companies Nos. 1, 2 and 4, a water tower and a service truck. X Besides the bands mentioned, seven others were in line, marking the separations between the di visions, as follows: Muny band, First Regiment band, Fremont band, Polish band, Bohemian band, Mid west band and Italian band. Altogether it was one of the most successful daylight parades given in the history of the Ak-Sar-Ben. Pictures of the parade were taken by a local photographer under or ders from the federal government. They will be sent to Washington. Flies Again Over Alps. Rome, Oct. 1.

A. WELSH. Meteorologist, MENACE TO HUN RETREAT GROWS (Continued From Fare One.) British commander to move for ward to the southeast in a wide en circling movement. For that rea son it is thought a new drive is to be anticipated on the Roulers front with large French or British forces supplementing the work of the Bel gian armies. Fall of Douai Foreshadowed. The evacuation ot Lens fore shadows the early fall of Douai, al ready closely pressed from the south. It is now clear that the grand strategy of Marshal Foch contemplated pinching the enemy out of the whole Lille-Douai sector and the abonormal quiet that has prevailed along the Lens front up to now is explained. The supreme commander today is realizing the full success of that plan. What effect the break in the north may have on the remainder of the line remains to be seen. Un doubtedly, it is said, an element of successful withdrawal will be nec essarily the concentration of a great force to hold up the British tinder General Plunier and the French and Belgians further north from continuing their drive east ward. A way must be kept open for the retreating armies. Retire on Rheims Front. Before Rheims, however, the ene my already has let go of the valu able defensive positions on the St. Thierry plateau and stands on a weak front with his back to open country beyond the Laon-Rheims road. Just north of St. Quentin the British were again hammering for ward today toward the valley of the Oise in a movement that imperils the whole German line between the Oise and the Aisne. The urgent situation around Lille might dictate a suspension of the withdrawal near Rheims, but it looks now as though the movement was too far advanced to be arrested and British occupa tion of the Oise line east of St. Quentin beyond doubt would force not only acceleration but wide ex tension of the withdrawal. Nor is the Rheims situation of the enemy perilous only on this sector. East of the cathedral city a pocket is forming with the French fourth army west of the Argonne menacing the security of the Ger man troops on that front The momentary lull in the fighting on the American lines at the Meuse, as Pershing's men consolidate their positions before the new German line, may portend a new blow at any moment and the continued quiet along thj immediate front of Rheims may foreshadow an early attack there at the h:art of the weakened German defensive structure with open country beyond. MTIERES AND LENS TAKEN (Continued From Page One.) cans and French on all the sectors, which are essential to the carrying forward of the allied program, have attacked valiantly and withstood counter-attacks, smashed the old Hindenburg positions and material ly advanced their line. Sequehart, north of St. Quentin, which the Ger mans, in a violent counter-attack, recaptured from the British Wed nesday, again has been taken by Field Marshal Haig's men.'who now are out on the rolling country to the eastward as likewise are all the al lied troops from St. Quentin north ward. Northwest of Rheims the Ger mans are offering more resistance to the French along the Aisne and on the sectors which are protect ing the eastern end of the Chemin Des Dames, the western end of which is dominated by the French guns, but General Berthelot's forces nevertheless have captured Cormicy and reached the Aisne canal be tween Concevereux and La Neuvil- lette, a front of more than 15 miles, Americans Approaching Rendezvous In Champagne the French, have enlarged their gains fcom the region north of Somme-Py to the western fringes of the Argonne forest, tak ing prisoners and inflicting heavy casualties on the enemy. The rail road junction point of Challerange, a short distance south of Vouziers, has been captured and here the French have continued their domination of the Aire valley, run ning north of the Argonne forest, and are only awaiting the arrival of the Americans at the eastern end of the valley to nip the big wooded bastion out of the fighting line. The Americans are slowly approaching the rendezvous. In their retreat from Albania, the Austro-Hungarians everywhere are in flight before the Italians, burn ing towns and depots behind him. Large numbers of prisoners and quantities of war material have been captured. Hitchcock Agrees to Number of Postmasters Washington, Oct. 3. (Special Telegram.) Senator Hitchcock has put his O. K. to a number of post masters nominated for reappoint ment, but it is understood he is still "hanging fire" on several Nasbys who do not yet come up to the acid test in the Hitchcock-Mullen laboratory. The names given a clean bill by Senator Hitchcock have gone to the committee on postoffices and post roads to be confirmed in all probability at the next execu tive session of the senate. Representative Reavis with Mrs. Reais will leave for Falls City Sat urday. C. H. Pickens of Omaha is in VVashington in conference with representative wholesale grocers on matters before the War Industries board. New Hun Premier "Regular Human" Declares Gerard Los Angeles, Cal., Oct. 3. Prince Maximilian of Baden, new German imperial chancellor, is a "regular human being," according to James W. Gerard, former ambassador to Germany. "I met Prince Maximilian fn Ber lin," said Mr. Gerard. "He is a man who knows English perfectly, and is one of the few high Germans who seem to be able to think and believe like an ordinary human be ing. I saw him with reference to the prisoner question, "in which he took great interest. If 1 recall cor rectly, he went to Stockholm in the interest of the general Red Cross and prison work conference. "He is a man of most charming appearance and manner, and indulg ent of the views of other countries and other civilizations, which no other German that I ever met occu pying an official position was. "He is not the direct heir of the present grand duke of Baden; I think he is a nephew; he always car ries a book of Emerson's essays in his pocket. He holds the rank of a ftil! general in the German army, al though without command. "Von Jagow and I wanted tofhave him put at the head of all prison er's work in Germany, but Von Jagow was personally in favor of treating the prisoners better tnan the military would permit. Von Tacow told me that he tried to bring about the appointment of Prince Maximilian, but wai terribly sat upon by the military. "Baden is much more liberal than most of the principalities and duchies; indeed, the most liberal of all of them. It made a brave attempt for liberty during the revolution of 1848, and 10,000 people of Baden In that revolution took retuge in switz erland, a great many of them eventually coming to this country, "The putting forward of a man of Prince Maximilian s personality and viewi in the position of chancellor to my mind means a very definite attempt to aeek peace and abandon ment of the pan-German policy, be cruse Prince Maximilian is opposed to this insane idea of pan-Germanism, of world conquest. "I always suspected that when they really sought peace they would employ either Prince Maximilian or Dr Solf. the German colonial min ister, who was so opposed to a break with America that when re lations were broken he took to his bed." PEACE PRINCE IS CHANCELLOR OF HON NATION Maximilian of Baden to Take Place Vacated by Von Hertling; Is an Anti-Militarist. West Point Course Cut. Washington, Oct. 3. To meet the demand for army officers, Acting Secretary Crowell today ordered that the course at West Point be reduced during the war from four years to one and that the present two upper classes be graduated the first of next month. The new pro gram will add several hundred lieu tenants to the army immediately and upward of 2,000 within a year, Amsterdam, Oct. 3. Prince Max imilian of Baden has been named German imperial chancellor, accord ing to the Zeitung Am Mittag of Berlin. A council meeting took place at the chancellor's palace in Berlin last evening, according to advices re ceived here. Emperor William pre sided and the meeting was attended by Field Marshal von Hindenburg, who had -come to Berlin with the emperor. Former Chancellor von Hertling, Vice Chancellor von Pay er and several state secretaries were in attendance. Shocks Pan-Germans. Prince Maximilian is heir to the throne of the grand duchy of Baden. He was born July 10, 1867. For some years he has been recog nized as the leader of the Delbrueck group of German moderates, and upon the fall of Imperial Chancellor Michaelis November 1, 1917, was put forward as the moderates' can didate for the chancellorship. His name, however, did not go before the emperor, as Prince Maximilian objected for dynastic reasons. Early in the present year Prince Maximilian gave a semi-official in terview in which he outlined his views on Germany's peace terms. His statement was a rude shock to the pan-Germans in that he advo cated the abandonment of all ideas of conquest. He advocated an Anglo-Saxon peace, in the sense that the German empire must serve as a bulwark in protecting the western nations from the spread of Russian bolshevikism. Prince Maximilian's wife was, for merly Marie Louise, duchess of Brunswick-Lunebourg, and bears the title of princess royal of Great Britain and Ireland. National Biscuit Company Displays Big Service Flag The local branch of the National Biscuit company, 1108 Douglas street, is displaying in its window a new service nag with 1,812 stars, This represents a contribution, thus far, of more than IS per cent of the company s male employes to the fighting forces of Uncle Sam, about a third of the company s or ganization consisting of women. Mere and more of the company's great manufacturing capacity is be ing devoted to government needs. A recent order called for 13,000,000 packages of hard bread for Persh ing s men.

DISCUSSION OF PEACE STARTED IN PARLIAMENT Austrian Socialist Deputies Demand Autonomy for Each Nation; Czech Attacks Germans. Vienna, Oct. 3. (Via Basel.) Emperor Charles on Monday went from Reichenau, lower Austria, to Baden, where he received in audi ence Field Marshal Arz von Straus senburg, the Austrian chief-of-staff. The emperor then came to Vienna, where he conferred with Baron von Burian, the Austro-Hungarian min ister, and Baron von Hussarek, the Austrian premier. The monarch returned to Reiche nau Tuesday night. Discussion of the government's declaration and the question of peace was begun yesterday in the Austrian Chamber of Deputies. The socialist deputies demanded peace on the following basis: The creation of a league of na tions No economic warfare. No annexations. The restoration of Serbia, Monte negro and Belgium. Revision of the treaties of Buch arest and Brest-Litovsk. Settlement of the eastern ques tions on the basis of nationalities. The regulation of the Polish question by the Polish constituents. The establishment of autonomy for each nation in Austria-Hungary. M. Stanek, a Czech deputy, caus ed an uproar jn the chamber by vio lently attacking Germany. He re affirmed the 'solidarity of the Jugo Siavs, Poles and Czechs and de clared that the only means of reach ing peace was to accept President Wilson's 14 points. The -sitting ended with the intro duction of a nation demanding an international congress of peace to settle the Polish and international questions. Midway Short Line Boosters in Omaha to Urge New Rail Route Judge F. T. Hughes of Keokuk, la., and Theodore Gilman of New York, railway experts, who have beer: making a survey of the Mid way Short Tine all rail route from Logansport( Ind., to Omaha, ar rived in Omaha last night after an inspection of the entire trackage. This stretch of road was one of the original transcontinental links. During this war time citizens dwell ing along the way have urged in view of its directness that it at least be used to capacity. It connects Logansport with Peoria, Keokuk, Centerville, Shenandoah and Oma ha. At the outset it was a Pennsyl vania proposition. Later the Wabash operated it for a time and the the Burlington got control. The regional bcrd has said it would require too great an expen diture of money for steel to put the line in shape for through traffic of intensive character now. Judge Hughes and Mr. Gilman. however. believe the line could be used to vastly greater advantage than now under present conditions and are prepared to urge this upon Director McAdoo of the railroad administra tion. FRENCH CAPTURE 2,800 HUNS IN DAY'SJFIGHTING Crest of Blanc Mont Gained in Champagne Advance; Cormicy, Northwest of Rheims, Also Taken. Taris, Oct. 3. The French troops captured 2,800 prisoners today, the war office announces tonight. They made an important advance to the northwest of Somme-Py, in the Champagne, occupying the crest of Blanc Mont. Cormicy; northwest of Rheims, has also been captured. In taking Challerange and the heights of Croix Des Soudans last night General Gouraud'i troops have accomplished another re markable feat of arms. There is probably nothing more formidable in the Hindenburg line anywhere than the defenses which the Ger mans had raised here to defend their access to the region commanding the valley of the Aire and Grandpre. After breaking through lines of trenches and barbed wire five miles deep General Gouraud attacked this position and carried it against rein- -forced troops that counter-attacked him three times in vain. - ft The possession of Challerange and Croix Des Soudans by the French seriously compromises the position of whatever German troops remain in the forest of Argonne and in the region north of Orfeuil. No longer is there an outlet to' the west from the Argonne region open to the enemy and the Ameri can advance along the eastern edge of the forest virtually closes the eastern exit from the Grandpre gap. The onljr railroad line available to the troops in the wooded region north of Orfeuil is now under the fire of French guns. Vouziers is directly threatened bv the latest advance. In the center of a long battle line General Berthe- lots troops have advanced within close reach of the forest of Brimont and have captured Loivre. This encourages the hope that the city of ' Kheims will soon be entirely freed from the fire of German artillery. With St. Quentin and the sub urb of Isle in his hands. General Debeney has made further gains to the south, obtaining a foothold n the enemy s . trenches west of Neuville St. Amand and Itancourt. Several lines of trenches were con quered in that region by the French after a violent struggle. Another Spanish Steamer Torpedoed By Hun Submarine Madrid, Oct. -3.

It was built in 1865, and was 236 feet long. Its home port was Barcelonia. Oregon Completes Quota In Fourth Liberty Loan Portland, Ore., Oct. 3. Oregon's quota of $33,708,130 in the fourth Liberty loait was brought to com pletion tonight, when new sub scriptions were announced which more than filled Portland's ap portionment of $18,323,421. The committee announced that Portland will claim the honor of being the first city of its class in the country; to go over the top. Government to Buy Whole Tomato Crop in Maryland Baltimore, Oct. 3.
