CHICAGO GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.
Increases of Estimated Crop Brings
About Slump in Price of Corn.
Chicago, Nov, 1. Bearish crop esti
mates, together with the capitulation of
Turkey and the breakdown of Austria,
forced a sharp setback today In the
price of corn. The market closed unset
tled, 2 to 4Ho net lowes. with De
cember $1.12 to $1.11 and January
$1.15 to $1.15H. Oats finished to 2
2c down, and provisions up 5 to 60c.
Lowest quotations of the day in corn
came after the Issuance of an authorita
tive statement indicating that the yield
of corn this season would be nearly 100,
000,000 bushels inexcess of the govern
ment's estimate a month ago. Besides,
farm stocks of old corn were said to
total more than three times as much at
the corresponding time last year and to
be the largest carryover since 1913. Long
before the announcement of crop figures
today, however, the bears had decidedly
the advantage owing to the fact that
all of Germany's allies had quit. Such
news from abroad, though, seemed to
have been looked for by a majority of
traders and to have been for the most
part discounted as a market factor. As
a result the volume of selling on account
of European advices proved to be rela
tively moderate.
Oats descended with corn.
Stabilizing of the bog market lifted
provisions.

Buyers and Workers;;
Fifih to Come Soon
A word of appreciation to the
men and women Liberty loan work
ers has been sent out by O. T. East
man, county chairman of the Lib
erty loan committee. He expresses
keen satisfaction over the results
obtained in this county for the
Fourth Liberty loan and "paves
the way" for the Fifth loan, by ask
ing all to be in readiness for the
next great drive. The letter is as
follows:
To All Liberty Loan Workers: All that
any of us "stay at homes" can do to
hlp out In the war is little enough com
pared with thostj who are placing their en
tire time and lives under the control of
the government. All of you appreciate
this fully, else you would not have so
promptly responded to the call of the Lib
erty loan committee.
Though none of us have done more than
our duty, it is still a great pleasure for
me to express to each of you our apprecia
tion of your hearty co-operation in : this
particular work.
Please remember that even should the
war come to a satisfactory conclusion
this year which does not seem possible
or probable the government will still
need large sums of money to keep the
boys going for some time after the com
pletion of peace te-ms. This means that
there will at least be a Fifth Liberty
loan, and others still to follow; therefore,
put It down on your calendar to be ready
to answer our 'call when the next loan is
announced.
Each of you har the satisfaction of
having helped brin? about another evi
dence of Omaha's going over the top, and
upon you will rest the responsibility of
doing it again the next time."

South Side
Better Than Average.
Do you want to see a real over
coat? One that will meet the gov
ernment's request to conserve, not
because it's cheap, but because it's
awful good for a reasonable price.
All we can say here is that it is pos
itively all wool, that it will last as
long as any fabric coat you can or
could buy, and the price is within
the reach of the average man. There
-are good values in every department
of this house. We are particularly
proud of a nw line of ladies' silk
and serge dresses that just came in.
In our boys' and girls' departments
we have splendid lines of the best
makes of suits, dresses, underwear,
etc., etc.
For the woman who wants to
make we have good news. Many
pieces of good wool and wash fa
brics on our shelves today are
priced considerably less than mill
prices. Don't be bashful. Come in
and look these goods over and com
pare values.
P. S. The person that left two
pairs of good wool sox here may
have them by describing them.

Note Made in 1869 Settled
for $300 Instead of $2600

last April by Hiram Spade against
Josiah Day, on a promissory note
dated in 1869, has been settled out
of court on a compromise of $300
The amount of the note was $750
and the total with interest was
stated as $2,600. Paul Steinwendef,
who negotiated the settlement, con
tended that a comparatively recent

Evidence Found by Hughes
May Be Laid Before Fed
eral Grand Jury at
Washington.
Washington, Nov. 1. Prosecu
tion of the three army officers held
by Charles E, Hughes in his report
on the aircraft investigation to be
guilty of dealing with corporations
in which they were financially in
terested is to be started without de
lay, it was said today at the De
partment of Justice. The cases may ,
Um Kfnr 9 fprferal ffrann itirv
in Washington.
The officers are Lt. Col. J. G.
Vincent, former vice president of
the Packard Motor Car company;
Lt. Col. George W. Mixter. a stock
holder in the Curtiss airplane and
motor corporation and Lt. Samuel
B. Vrooman, jr., a stockholder in
the S. B. Vrooman company of
Philadelphia.
If substantiated the charges made
against the officers would inVolve
imprisonment of not more than two
years ana fine ot not more tnaa
$2,000.
Reports that other army officers
commissioned since the nation en
tered the war have been dealing
with firms in which they have a
financial interest are being investi
gated by agents of the Department
of Justice. It was understood that
the number of officers under inves
tigation was small.
Secretary Baker said today he had
not completed his study of, Mr.
Hughes' report and was not pre
pared to announce his action upon
recommendation of Mr. Hughes
that Col. E. A. Deeds, attached to
the bureau of military aeronautics,
be brought to court-martial for the
alleged supplying of confidential
War department information to for
mer business assistants in Dayton,
Ohio.
Request for any inquiry by the
War department into aircraft affairs
was made some months ago by Maj.
Gen. George O. Squier, Col. Deeds
and other officials, but Secretary
Baker held it in abeyance until the
investigation of Mr. Hughes and the
senate committee has been com
pleted. Mr. Baker did not indicate
today when the department inquiry
would be started, but it was regard
ed as almost certain that the offi
cers' request would be granted.
Further investigation into condi
tions in the spruce producing sec
tion of the northwest, as recom
mended by Mr. Hughes, is to be un
dertaken by government agents, it
was said today.
Representative Fess of Ohio,
chairman of the republican congres
sional committee issued a state
ment today commenting upon the
Hughes aircraft report He referred
to profits ot the tora pianr, ana 10
"the appalling waste of money as
indicated in sundry instances." Re
calling the senate military commit
tee's report of a few months ago,
Mr. Fess said: -
"These two reports emphasize the
imperative necessity of some legis
lative supervision over the, vast ex
penditures congress is appropriating
every month.
"The president has resisted all ef
forts to that end and has charged
republicans with a desire to control
him because of their contention that
an auditing system must be adopted
whereby the ' department which
spends the money must not be left
to audit its own accounts, but left
to the authority of the body that
authorizes the expenditure.
v "The real danger of the present
system is apparent. In our last de
ficiency bill1 just passed facts were
revealed to prove that departments'
estimates were mere guesses.
"A republican congress will de
mand an accounting, a different sys
tem Of estimating, a more business
like review of these estimates and
legislative review and final prepara
tion of all appropriation bills."

Scrofula is probably the most no
ticeable of the transmitted blood
disorders, though there are other
more severe diseases of the blood
that pass from one generation to

remedy has been in general use for
more than fifty years. It is purely

Some of the most distressing
cases of transmitted blood poison
have yielded to the treatment of
S. S. S., and no case should be con
