CHICAGO GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.
Cora Decline as Result of Selling Drive;
Market Close Heavy.
Chicago, Oct. 7. Big downward swings
In the value of corn resulted today from
selling drives, which were In ' the nature
of effort to discount the possibility of a
general peace. Trade, however, although
at times on a broad seal, did not, aa s
whole, attain great volume. The market
closed heavy, 6T,c to 9c lower, with No
vember, $1.22 to $1.22 and December.
$1.21 to $1.21. Oats finished lc to
2o down and provisions off 27o to $1.
At first the corn market made only
comparatively moderate responae to the
announcement that Germany had asked
an Immediate armistice and for negotia
tion of peace. It aoon became manlfeat
that th Initial absence of any extra
ordinary selling pressure was due to
recent drastic liquidation by holders and
to th fact that would-be shorts sellers
were greatly in doubt as to llklihood of
Germany' request being granted. Subse
quently, though, lack of buying support
became so apparent that th speculative
element grew aggressive, and made a
serle of attacks on prices, (specially after
midday.
In consequence, last transaction war
virtually the lowest of the session.
Oats fell with corn, but were steadied
somewhat by belief that considerable
cash business had been done.
Provisions merely reflected the weakness
of grain and hogs.
Correction: Editors: In fourth line read
"tc to 9o lower, with November, $1.224
to $1.22 and December, $1.21 to $1.21.

New York, Oct. 7. War stock made
further unmistakable responae today to
the latest peace overtures of the Teu
tonic powers, again reacting aharply,
while other lssuea more remotely con
nected with that group also extended
recent declines.
Gains In the peace division were suffi
ciently Impressive at times to neutralize
the weakness of industrials and equip
ments. Dividend rails scored substantial
advancea on further extension of federal
credits, and utilities augmented last
week's gains aa a result of the govern
ment's equitable agreement with the
agreement with the American Telephone
company.
Home developments bore no direct re
lation to the course of prices, although
tonnage reporta at Important terminals
were mixed, while buainess conditions
In western and southern sections sug
geted by their halting attitude the in
teresting changes In the foreign situa
tion. United States Steel, contributed over 25
per cent of the day's diversified dealings,
recovering only a small fraction of Its
two-point reversal. Independent steels
made very Indifferent rallies from gross
recessions of 2 to 5 points.
Kindred equipments and apeclaltles, In
cluding tobaccos, leathers and the dis
tilling division, experienced similar rever
sals with numerous secondary or minor
issues. '
Transcontinental rails and granger re
tained part of their one to two and a half
point gains, but oils, motor and shlp
plnga cancelled much of their substantial
advantage in the general pressure at the
close. Sales amounted to 635,000 shares.
Firmness of Liberty issues accompanied
the progress of the current drive and
foreign bonda were featured by the
strength of French munlclpala, Paris 6s
gaining one per cent. Total sales, par
value, aggregated $9,875,000. Old United
Statea bonds were unchanged on call.

be placed on display in the windows
of the Townsend Gun company.

Late King Ferdinand
Basel, Switzerland, Oct. 7.
King Ferdinand in abdicating the
Bulgarian throne, according to a
rjispatch from Sofia, issued the fol
lowing manifesto:
"By reason of a succession of
circumstances which have occurred
in my kingdom and which demand
from each citizen such sacrifice,
even to the surrendering of one's
self for the well being of all, I de
sire to give as first example the sac
rifice of myself.
"Despite the sapred ties which for
32 years have bound me so firmly to
this countr', for whose prosperity
and greatness I have given all my
powers, I have decided to renounce
the royal Bulgarian crown in favor
of my eldest son, his highness, the
Prince Royal Boris of Tirnovo.
"I call upon all faithful subjects
and true patriots to unite as one
man about the throne of King Boris,
to lift the country from its difficult
situation and to elevate new Bul
garia to the height to which it is
predestined."
The new king will rule under the
name of Boris III.

Washington, Oct. 7. Do the peo
ple desire at the November elections
to continue the present democratic
leaders in congress in control of the
war and national legislative affairs?
If the next house is controlled by
the democrats, Dent, of Alabama,
who opposed the draft law and the
declaration of war and who has bit
terly fought many proposals by the
War department for winning the
war, will continue as chairman of
the Military Affairs committee.
Dent or Kahn?
If the next house is republican,
Kahn of California, who success
fully led the fight for the draft law
in the house, after Dent repudiated
this vital administration measure for
the winning of the war, will become
chairman of the Military Affairs
committee. Which do the people
want, Dent or Kahn, at the head of
this most important committee?
If the next house is democratic,
Kitchin, of North Carolina, will re
main as chairman of the powerful
Ways and Means committee and
floor leader in the house. Kitchin
opposed the war, voted against the
draft law and the declaration of
war. If the house is republican
Fordney, of Michigan, will become
chairman of Ways and Means.
Fordney voted for war and for the
draft.
Clark Opposed Draft.
If the next house is democratic,
Champ Clark will remain as speaker.
Clark opposed the draft law. He
stated that a conscript was no bet
ter than a convict. If the house is
republican a republican who loy
ally supported all the war measures
will be speaker.
Do the people want Sherley of
Kentucky, a southern democrat, to
remain as chairman of the appro-
WAR. PUZZLES
priations committee, that is spending
their money by billions? Or would
they prefer Gillet of Massachusetts,
who would become chairman if the
house is republican?
Webb, another southern demo
crat from North Carolina, is chair
man of the Judiciary committee. He
failed to vote on the resolution de
claring war against the Hun. Vol
stead of Minnesota, a staunch sup
porter of all the war legislation,
would become chairman of Judiciary
if the house is republican.
The American navy soon will be
the most powerful in the world.
Shall its destinies be further en
trusted to Tadgett of Tennessee,
another southern democrat, who has
been long known as a "little navy
man?" Thomas S. Butler of Penn
sylvania, an ardent "big navy man"
and a staunch supporter of all war
measures, would be chairman of
naval affairs if the next house is
republican.
Those Who Fought Draft.
Here are some democratic chair
men of other committees, who, by
their votes or influence, obstructed
the war:
Clark, Florida, another southern
democrat, chairman of Tublic Build
ings and Grounds, voted against the
draft.
Johnson, Kentucky, still another
southern democrat, chairman of the
District of Columbia committee, op
posed the draft.
Moon, Tennessee, another south
erner, opposed the draft. He is
chairman of the Postoffice com
mittee. Pou of Kitchin's state, chairman
of the Rules committee, opposed the
draft.
Small, North Carolina, still' an
other southerner, chairman of
Rivers and Harbors, opposed the
draft.
Heflin, Alabama, 'self-appointed
spokesman for the White House,
though the president has not veri
fied it, opposed the draft.
All these are democrats and all
from the "solid south."

Many Kinds of Rheumatism
One Sure Mode of Treatment
Authorities Say Don't Use
Liniments. Treat It Through
the Blood. You Can't
Rub It Out!
Whether your trouble is Sciatica,
Lumbago or the dreaded Articular
Rheumatism, the answer is the same.
You must treat it through the blood.
That is the only way to rid the sys
tem of uric acid, purify the blood
and revitalize the nerves. If the
jlood is freed from impurities, Rheu
matism must go. This in short is
the exact knowledge gained by the
research laboratories of the S. S. S.
Co., in Atlanta. There tests have
been made for fifty years. They
know what Rheumatism is. Theyj
know that S. S. S., the remarkable
blood tonic, which they originated,
will relieve you of Rheumatism.
Take S. S. S. today. The compete
recovery of thousands of sufferers
by the use of S. S. S. is positive
proof that you can be relieved. S.
S. S. is a blood tonic a purifier
that restores the blood, revitalizes
it, cleanses it, .makes it pure as it
was before it became poisoned with
impurities. S. S. S. gives it strength
to drive out these impuriti33 the
uric acid and organic poison and
with it the Rheumatism. Get S. S. S.
at your druggist's. If you need spe
cial advice, write Medical Adviser,

BROTHER-IN-LAW
IS LOVE PIRATE
SAYSJIISBAND
Wealthy Farmer Now Search
ing for Wife Who Deserted
Him for Another, He
Claims.
Seeking to unscramble one of the
queerest matrimonial tangles that
has come to the notice of Omaha po
lice in many a day, Bert Jones of
Missouri Valley, is trying to pro
cure the arrest of his brother-in-law,
E. E. Spencer, a well-to-do
farmer, of the same place, who, he
claims, is a love pirate.
At the same time he is trying to
locate his missing wife and 2-yeir-old
child, who disappeared from
their home last week, and are al
leged to have come to Omaha at the
instigation of Spencer.
Jones says he and Spencer mar
ried sisters and Spencer became in
fatuated with Mrs. Jones, their re
lationships causing considerable
scandal in Missouri Valley. It led
to frequent quarrels between the
brothers-in-law and to an assault
last summer, after which Jones was
laid up in a hospital for some
weeks.
A few weeks ago Mrs. Jones re
ceived a "black hand" letter, com
manding her to leave town.
Jones said his wife' showed the
letter to Spencer, who purchased a
32-caliber revolver and SO shells,
which he gave to Mrs. Jones, telling
her to shoot the first person who
happened to visit her home. He
said he was out late one night and
when he retruned his wife eon
fronted him with the loaded pistol.
Last Wednesday, he alleges, his
wife went to Valley Junction and
took the baby with her. Spencer,
the husband alleges, went to Valley
Junction on a later train and took
the woman and babe to Omaha.
Soencer owns a farm near Mis-
souri Valley, some town property
there and residence property in
South Omaha. He has brought a
divorce action against his wife.

while in the Harley drug store, re

I did eat seemed to do me harm in
stead of good. I suffered from in
digestion and always had a pain
about my stomach after eating. I
waa constipated and bilious and suf
fered from headaches and dizzy
spells. My sleep was very poor and
I would get up in the mornings mora
tired than on going to bed at night.
I lost fully ten pounds in weight and
had gotten to where I felt badly
nearly all the time and work was
more or less a burden to me.
"I read and heard so much about
Tanlac that I decided there must ba
something to it, and it certainly has
put me in good working order. My
appetite picked up right from th
start, my digestion improved and
then I commenced to get back my
strength and energy. All my ail
ments gradually disappeared and
now I'm feeling fine. I relish all my
meals, sleep good every night and
my tired, worn-out feelings ara
gone. Tanlac is great medicine and
deserves all praise."
