SIX WEEKS' FIGHT
ON GEN. WOOD
NOW IS PRESAGED
Charge That Big Business Is
Financing Campaign Will
Hurt Boom Is Undeniable.
Chiracs Tribune-Omaha Bee Leased Wire.
Chicago, vMarch 24. The double
attack on the Wood campaign which
' broke in New York and Washing
ton is said to be only the prelude to
a six weeks' concert along that
theme. The New York World led
the attack in that city, charging
that "big business" had undertaken
to provide a million-dollar Wood
campaign fund. In Washington,
Senator Borah, in a suave speech,
deprecated the lavish use of money
in the Wood campaign and said he
had seen numerous letters indicat
ing that people in the west were be
coming very restless because of
this.
William Cooper Proctor, cam-
paign manager for Wood, replied
to these charges, by saying:
"General Wood is the candidate
of the people and not of the politi
cians. His candidacy has been
fought by political influences and
senatorial groups from the begin
ning. His campaign is being con
ducted by men who are not politi
cians. His campaign lias been,
conducted solely on the lines of
presenting the man, his character
and his record to the people. No
money has been expended excepting
within the strictest limits of state
and national law fend solely for the
purpose above stated." ,
Hurts His Campaign.
That the charge will hurt the
Wood boom is undeniable, although
the Wood managers boldly take the
stand that money spent in a good
cause is no crime. The first tangi
ble results of the attack upon Wood
will be noticed in Michigan which
holds its state primaries April 5.
Wood, Lowden and Johnson are en
gaged in a lively three-cornered scrap
. in that state. Reports brought back
from Michigan today by scouts from
rival camps, are that Wood is al
ready slipping, with Lowden and
'Johns! the beneficiaries.
Managers of the campaigns of
Senator Harding of Ohio and Gov
ernor' Lowden, are said to be quar
reling according to reports arriving
here, Harding's managers are ac
cusing the Lowden camp of bad
faith in connection with the Virginia
delegation to the national conven
tion. According to the story there
' was supposed to be an agreement
that no efforts would be made by
cither. camp to have the Virginia
delegation instructed.
. Lowden and Harding, and in some
states, Johnson, have been working
together against Wood. This is es
pecially true in Indiana. Now there
is a chance for a split that will send
the. Ohio senator ' and the Illinois
governor into the convention more
bitter arainst each other than they
are against Wood. ,

at about steady prices.

Hogs Receipts today were estimated at
218 loads, or 15,700 head. The market waa
rather slow and decidedly uneven, opinions
varying from steady to 25c lower, although
the average will show very little change.
Bulk of sales was $13.7615.25 with a
top of $15.35. Sales were fairly well
scattered over the entire bulk, but heavy
hogs were especially hard to move and
broke towards the close. '
Sheep and Lambs Another moderato
run of shefp and lambs was received,
yard estimate calling for 7,000 head.
Cliolco light lambs were scarce but a fair

trade showing advances of fully too.
Seven doubles of 86 pounds shearers went
to the country at $16.25. this price being

New York, March 24. A top
heavy speculative position of stocks
and cotton brought its own correc
tion today through a sharp fall of
quotations. The volatile industrial
shares declined from 2 to 7 points,
with the erratic General Motors re
ceding no less than 44 points from
the highest to the lowest level. The
March cotton option, which the day
before sold at the remarkable price
of 43.18c per pound, dropped to 40c
and the other contracts were weak
from the start of business.
In both markets It appeared as though
thero had been, In a Wall street phrase,
"too much buying and too little selling"
since the forward movement began ,early
In the month. The old short account evi
dently hod been driven In In progress of
the rise, and a new one had not been built
up. with the result that there was not a
sufficient firm cushion for quotations to
fall upon when sentiment became unset
tled. Call Money Bate Advance.
The i rimary cause of this unsettle ment,
as far as stocks were concerned, waa an
advance of the call money rate from 7 to
14 per cent. The speculative element,
which likes to ascrihe to the banks arbl.
trary pewer over call loan rates, had
pungent comment for today's movement.
And If ore were wont to acclaim this ex
planation for the unexpected rise of money,
he might go further and discover reasons
why money lenders put up ' the rate.
The fact should not be overlooked that
traders In General Motors, Baldwin, Cru
cible Steel, Studebaker and other stocks
had been bidding prices upward In a
plunging fashion which had slight regard
for the situation of credit as bank state
ments had disclosed it from week to
week, and from this it would not be dif
ficult to argue that a rebuke for auch
operations had been administered.
i Value- of Debate Open
The real value of debate on this point
Is. however, open to question. The March
advance of quotations, . whatever may
have been the Influence from sound In
dustrial developments, had been In the
faco of a steadily unfavorable federal
bank rserve position and the liquidation
of commercial loans reported from time
to time apparently found new uses for
the credit thus released. The operations
centering around the mldmonth tax pay
ments have not yet been completed.
Government withdrawals from local
banks on Tuesday amounted to about
$20,000,000 and more funds are expected
to be taken tomorrow. The checks aent
to Internal revenue collectors have not
all gone through, which means that the
barks are likely to lose deposits to the
government for somo time. The stock
market had seemed to be thrown off Its
guard by the relatively easy call loan
rates in recent days, which furthered the
decline after It got under way today.
In the first hour occurred the familiar
process of bidding up the popular Issues
and their retreat later came close to being
a rout.
New Financing; Announced.
An encouraging feature of the day was
contained in the announcement of several
sizable pieces of new financing, Includ
ing more than $17,000,000 of railroad se
curity offerings. So far this week, rail
road and Industrial corporations have
presented for consideration by the invest
ing public more than $54,000,000 new
paper. Sterling exchange advanced again
and there was a substantial upturn of
frenc. lire and Belgian franc quotations.
The rise of the latter group indicated that
preparations for maturing French and
Italian loans in Loudon within the next
few weeks had been completed In the
main. Sterling was quoted as high as
$:t.8;)H. close to the year's maximum
rate for checks.

Dally Trade bulletin, Chicago, says: Ac
cording to seaboard advices, there is still
an Insistent demand for wheat for ex
port, and the takings during last week
were fairly liberal, with considerable in
quiry this morning. The demand Is com
ing from English and French Interests.
It Is said that France will have to Im
port large quantities of wheat because of
the small stocks held there. North Amer
ica shipments last week were 2,790,000
bushels. A London cable confirmed the re
port that was received here last week that
300,000 tons of wheat are to be shipped
from Australia In liners during April,
May and June.
Kansas Weather and Crop Report.
In the north'-central and northwestern
counties the trop is still In good condi
tion, wifh sufficient moisture stored in
the ground from last fall to keep It from
perishing. It generally has a good color
and has stooled fairly well In that sec
tion, but the great majority of the fields
show very little green as seen from tho
road, and have made little or no growth
since the worm weather came. It is gen
erally reported to be alive and at present
writing It is not certain that any of It will
be abandoned in those counties.
In the southwestern and south-central
counties wheat Is in poor condition and
It seems certain that the percentage of
abandonment will be high. It was badly
blown during me last- ween, especially in
the sand soil of the great bend of that
river. Severe "damage from blowing Is
also reported as far north as Ellsworth
and Saline counties. Several of the east
ern counties report wheat In poor condi
tion, especially the late sown, and consid
erable of It likely to be abandoned.
Plowing and dtskng were general the
last week, except in some of the extreme
northern, counties. . From 25 to 60 per
cent of .the 00 ts crop has been sown In
the eastern half of the state and almost
all of it In the extreme south-central
counties, ano barley sowing la well under
way In the western portion. A few early
gardens and potatoes have been planted.

By CHARLES D. MICHAELS.
Chicago Trtbuae-Omaha Bee Leased Wire.
Chicago, March 24. Lowest
prices for grains' were made early
followed by a covering movement
and a good advance which held
fairly at the last although the close
showed a weak undertone. Rains in
the " southwest will help the wheat
crop while those in the corn states
of the central west will delay farm
work and prevent farmers from de
livering corn. Net gains were 5-8
to 3-4c on corn,- 1-8 to3-4c on oats
and 3-4 to 5-8 on rye.
Provisions were weaker and closed at
about the lowest prices with pork 40 to
bic, lard 40 to (6c and shortribs 20
to 22c lower.
Overconfldencs on the part of local
bears led to their undoing. They were
able to depress corn prices l&2c early,
but there via such persistent short cover
ing and buying by commission houses that
the surplus was taken out of the pit and
the local element with the assistance of a
little reinstating of long lines made an
upturn of 8 He from the Inside figures.
At tha top May was within 2c of the
best price of the year and the deferred
deliveries only 1 toe under the outside
figures of the season, and this In the face
of heavy profit-taking and short selling
for two days past.
Hysterical Stories Harmful.
Hysterical stories regarding market
manipulation are expected by many trad
ers to result In the country refusing to sell
cash grain in volume tha same as it has
done all season when the market was de
pressed. Cash corn was in good demand, with
early trades unchanged and the close
HtMe higher, white showing the most
strength.
Winter wheat here was unchanged to 2c
higher, with No. 8 hard $2.602.62. Ex
porters bid $2.72 for No. 2 red, track New
York, and paid $2.73 at Omaha for No. 2
hard.
Oat Market Stronger.
The oat market showed relatively more
strength than corn, despite heavy selling
of May by a strong commission house.
This was offaet, however, by buying of
July and au advance of c in cash pre
miums. No. 2 white sold at 89c over
May and No. 3 white at 78c over
May. Sample values unchanged to lc
higher.
Export demand for rye continues ery
brisk at 16c over May, track New York
No. 2 on track sold at 2c over May at
$1.78.
Barley was In good demand from
malsters. but prices were unchanged. Of
ferings small. Spot sales were at $1.42
1.63.

Washington, March 24. Secretary
of Agriculture Meredith will con
duct a hearing in Chicago, April 2,
to determine whether changes in the
federal grades for wheat are de
sirable.
The heari'itr has resulted from
changes recently proposed in Wash
ington by a delegation represent
ing the state board of grain appeals
at Minneapolis and Duluth, certain
state officials of Minnesota and
North Dakota and others. The
members of this delegation con
tended .that there is dissatisfaction
in the central west over the present
federal grades for hard red spring
and durum wheats.
The hearing is of such importance,
the statement says, that farmers,
country buyers, elevator men, com
mission men, brokers, exporters, mil
lers, grain inspectors and others in
terested in the production, storage,
transportation, marketing ana util
ization of wheat are urged to be
represented. The hearing will be
in the Hotel La Salle at 10 o'clock.

New York. March 24. Liquidation of
May contracts caused some Irregularity
In the coffee market today but otherwise
the early tone was steadier on covering

ness. The opening was four points lower
on May but generally unchanged to 3
points higher, with Mav selling , up from
$14.25 to $14.35 and September to $14.40
during the middle of the dny, or six to
nine points net higher; later however,
prices eased on reports of a decline in
Santos futures and easier Santos offers.
Mav closed at $14 25 bid. while Sentemher
sold off to $L4.S0 with the general list j
closing net 4 points lower to S points i
higher.

. Washington, March 24. Another
questionnaire for presidential aspir
ants, this time relating to the cam
paign expenditures, was made pubic
by Labor, a weekly paper published
by the. 14 recognized railroad labor
organizations.
Reports that some candidates were
spending large sums were given as
the reason for submission of the
questionnaire, which was in the
form of a letter to a dozen demo
crats and republicans mentioned for
flie nomination. Pointing ottt that
the president is entrusted by the
constitution with the appointment
of the federal judiciary and that he
is "becoming more and more influ
ential in shaping legislation," the
letter declared that the gravity of
charges concerning improper ex
penditures could not be exaggerated.
"Apparently there is no adequate
provision in the law," the letter con
tinued, "to safeguard the selection
cf delegates to national party con
ventions, candidates for the presi
dency and their many friends may,
so far as federal statutes are con
cerned, expend as much money as
they see fit to affect the result.
"In view of these self evident
facts, ; Labor respectfully asks you
to answer the following questions:
"First: , How is your campaign
financed? How much have you ex
pended to date, and how much do
you expect to expend before the na
tional convention of your party
meets? Will you be good enough to
furnish the names of contributors to
ycur campaign fund, or to any fund
which is to be used in your behalf
and the amounts v of contributions?
Will you, before the national con
vention meets, make a further sworn
statement of expenditures, together
