A squabble enlivened the republican women's county primary election, which was held in Kansas City and Jackson county, to select members of the women's republican county .committee. The "row" happened in one of the city. districts where a resi dence was used as a voting place. The mistress of the honse belongs to one local faction of the party, and her opponents to another. The woman in whose house the ballots were being cast, called up re publican headquarters during the atternoon. "There's a woman here," she said, whos running for committee- woman and she insists on sitting right here next the ballot box. told her she couldn't do that, and she'd have to get out, but she says she won't. What shall I do?" "Get a piece of eas oioe and run her out," suggested the man on the telephone at party headquarters. An hour later the owner, whose husband is a wholesale plumber, caned oack: , , . "I did as you said," she told head' quarters. "I ran her out. but now she s back, and the whole front yard is full of negro women she brought here to vote for her. What shall l do?" The man at headquarters was un able to offer further suggestions. UNITED STATES II m.'tl I II 1 1 I e III EXPLAIN STAND Answer to Recent American i Note Leaves Question of Position Toward Russia Open, Is Opinion. " Chiracs Tribune-Omaha Bee Leased Wire. Washington, Sept 4. The Po lish reply to the American note so liciting a declaration of Polish pol icy in consonance with the princi ple iof the integrity of Russian ter ritory; leaves the question open, in the opinion of diplomatic Washing ton. It is assumed that further ex planations will be demanded of Po land by the United States. This was indicated Friday follow ing a lumci cin.c on mc suujeci held at the White House with Presi dent Wilson by Secretary of State Colby and Under Secretary Nor mal H. Davis. i , ' It is pointed out after a study of Poland's reply, that the records reveal an inconsistency in Poland's policy as defined to this govern ment. The Warsaw foreign office asserts that Poland is fighting bol- shevism and not Russia, Btot it is recalled that the military campaign carried on against KiefKwas con nected with a definite scheme of creating .an . independent Ukraine out ct Russian territory and with out the consent of the Russian peo- Demand Renouncement By Russia. It is also recalled that after the formulation of plans for the seizure of Kieff, but before , the Kief f . de fensive was opened, in their peace demands upon the bolsheviki, pre sented in March, 1920, and which were rejected by the bolsheviki, the X Oies insisicu mat ivussm enuuiu renounce her sovereignty in all the territories situated . to the west of the old Pfelish boundaries of 1772 and allow Poland to decide the fate ' of these territories in agreement with the local population, thus ex cluding altogether Russia's partici pating in the settlement of these questions. . .

May Ask Repudation. ' It is believed that the State depart ment now acting upon instructions ( from President Wilson,, will ask for an open repudiation by the Polish government of the principle and policy condemned by the president 4k tli..4f.nc krttVi tk ifitvritV of Russia and to prolong the Russo Polish war, a repudiation that is not found in the Polish note. It is also asserted by diplomats that in its communication the Polish govern- ..tnent does not disclose what is in its mind. - It Mas been learned that expres sions nave oeen maae oy ooin r-ng-4and and France on the Russq- Pvltcti eiti!itirtn that g,r ,n rnncri- nance with the declared views of tfte n was lunner pomiea out, now- ever, that the. actual boundary be tween Poland and' Russia had never "been traced, and that it is difficult to estimate the Polish reaction to the. American notes. While in State de partment circles it is intimated strongly that the exchanges of views between Washington and Warsaw have not been closed, officials think that a satisfactory understanding with PrtlonH will k arrivprT at hv this government.

' War Department to Decide Upon Action In Prison Council Topeka, Kan., . Sept. 4. What further action, if any. may be taken as a result of the investigation of the prison council at the disciphn ary barracks , at Fort Leavenworth, probably will be determined by the War. department pr the Treasury department at Washineton. accord ing to F. L. Campbell, clerk of the United States district court, in whose, office the report of the investiga tion was hied. The report contained a statement by Colone Segwick Rice, formerly commandant of the disciplinary bar racks, that the prison council was established on orders from the ad jutant general of the army. The prison was ruled by the council from January to July, 1919. The failure of the system,' accord ing to witnesses, was due to the "tyrannical and overbearing" power assumed by the council, whose pun- ishments often resulted in "beatings an"d black eyes."

Ralls were promi nent features of this week's bVoader deal ings in securities, both shares and bonds showing greater activity and strenxth than at eny other time since the return of the railroads to private ownership. Extreme advances of 1 to about 6 points were regis tered ly the speculative Issues of roads traversing western and southwestern ter ritories, their gams doubtless being accel erated by the forthcoming movement of large crops. ' The event of September brought easier conditions to the money market, rates for call loans relaxing visibly, while time funds, though quotably unchanged, were in moderate supply for three and four months'' periods. This development, together with the In auguration of an extensive Import move ment of gold, enabled pools to resume their bullish operations In Industrials and spe cialties, although further trade advices tended to confirm recent reports of back ward conditions. Reviews of tbe general Industrial and commercial situation by the federal re serve board and other qualified authorities emphasized the need for further caution in the exercise of credits. In the main, however, a more hopeful view was enter tained respecting , trade prospects, this being based largely on the likelihood of further reduction of commodity prices. Export Buying During Week Boosts Prices of Wheat Chicago, Sept. 4. Export buying on a big scale has put decided strength this week into the wheat market. Compared with a week ago, wheat prices this morn tne warn 4 V. c. tn 7Ac higher, whereas corn was down c to 5c and oats off c to 2c. In provisions the net dif ference for the week ranged from $2.70 decline to-25c advance. Although at tbe beginning of the week gossip was current that foreign govern ments were having some difficulty In fi nancing their purchases of grain, It soon became apparent that any obstacles had been surmounted, 'men mere were- pre dictions that the southern hemisphere would be unable to ship wheat freely from now on until after December 31, and re ports spread that a holding attituae nan become general among oomesiic pruuucein. Drougth reports from Argentina tended further to emphasize bullsh sentiment and so likewise did estimates that the sur plus supply In the united stales was un. Siens vesterdav. how ever, of a stoppage In European demand led to something or a reaction, x In the corn market, receipts did much to weaken prices. Oats were depressed by notice of an Increased visible supply. Lards and ribs received support from business with Europe but distress selling caused a severe drop in , pork. Bar Silver.

PHONE DOUG. I ISO. Others believe that the export demand has taken more wheat than tne primary mar kets have received In the last two months. The exports also largely exceed primary receipts. Any let up In the export buying of wheat Is expected to encourage Increased selling by speculators. , A point made by one of the largest corn traders Is that with cash coJI and SeDtember declining, there ia no use try ing to hold up the distant futures. Part of the weakness and break of nearly cents In September corn during the week and 11 cents from the high point of the previous week Is attributed to tne sell Ing out of SeDtember and buying of De comber by spreaders. The December has only declined 4 cents and May 5 Vi cents during the 11 cent decline In Sep tember. A cash handler says with no prospects ot accumulating wneat stocks at central markets, before January, December de liveries In all markets are likely to au tomatically aa.iust themselves. ''There is modification of bearish sent! mcnt In the corn crop news, says Thomson & McKlnnon. The distant deliveries are at such a big discount that there Is growing Idea that the producer will not accept the prevailing prices In as much as it is so far below the leeding value. Farmers are holding back around 600.- 000,000 bushels wheat for higher prices, according to estimates made from govern ment sources. For some time past the holding tend ency has been a feature in sections where farmers were financially able to do so, and it Is understood that In the main they desire to secure $3, or about 60 cents more than Is obtainable at terminal mar kets now. In dlscvsslng the corn situation Charles. sincere 4 Co. say that ir there la to bs a severe slump In prices it will probably start from higher figures than now pre vail. They believe that the strength in the wheat situation will also have con siderable influence on coarse grains. "Weather conditions will probably con tinue a dominating factor until the corn crop Is secured," said W. C. Welgand, with Simons, Day 4 Co., in his weekly rovlew of the situation.
