HEAT MAKING LOT OF NEAR MILLIONAIRES
Twenty-Two Cent Jump for September In Two Weeks Causes Sensation.
CHICAGO, Aug. 12.—With wheat, dour and provision prices up much higher tonight than they were a week ago, and threats of a federal investigation rumored among wheat brokers, President J. P. Griffin, of the Chicago board of trade, came to the, defense of traders tonight with the v statement that the rise is due to wholly natural causes of supply and demand. "There is but one explanation for the rise," said Griffin. "Insufficient production of wheat the world over to' meet the consumptive requirements. "A careful analysis of the figures \?ill reveal the cause for prevailing high prices of wheat. For instance, -the Winnipeg market closed at $1.46% for December wheat yesterday, against $1.47 in the Chicago market. The situation does not hold out any/ hope for materially low prices unless the.Dardennelles can be forced, thus throwing open to the consuming nations of the world the three years' surplus grain stored in Russia."*

New made 'millionaires raced fast cars tonight ast.a result of the sensational jumps in wheat. Clerks whb braced lunch counters two weeks ago counted their profits in thousands Of dollars. Loop restaurartts perked up new life tonight while "get rich quickers" spent part of their newly won profits.
When the gong sounded in the pit today, wheatf showed advancels of 22 cents for September and December and 11 cents for May in the last two weeks. Gains of 8 cents, 7% cents and 7% cents were made for this week, in September, December, apd May respectively.
Why the Shortage.
Only in the possible piercing of the Dardanelles lies hope for materially lower prices for wheat, according to J. P. Griffin, president'of'the Chicago board of trade. This, he said, would throw open to the consuming nations the three years' surplus gain stored in Russia...
Mr. Griffin cited the government figures on wheat production to show that the principal cause of the recent jump in prices was due to insufficient production, oftly 654,000,000 bushels Jbeing produced this year, against 1,012,000,• 000 in 1915."

just getting into trim. He said it with emphasis in,' a voice from Which all trace of hoarseness' ha3 disappeared and he emphasized it with a sl^p of his hands that left no doubt of his perfect trim. "This .week has been most gratifying." the judge asserted. "Everywhere we have gone there" has been manifested a very deep interest and sincere cordiality. I think the people here are fully alive to the serious defect in the present administration and that through the northwest we shall have a very strong support."
In his speech here tonight the-nom-inee reiterated his charges of democratic maladministration by citing what he said werp specific instances of paying political debts by giving of public offices. He bitterly assailed the democratic administration for its retirement of veteran diplomatic and consular officials to make places for "deserving democrats." ."Other nations," he said, "train their diplomats ^through a long course. When our ambassadors work with such men as these a,t foreign capitols they can learn only what these trained diplomats choose to tell them."
Dr. Dittman tonight pronounces his distinguished patient in perfecft physical trim. He had some strenuous work to iron the kinks out of the candidate's voice but said from now on Hughes will be "O. K."
Hughes Has Valet.
Tonight it was decided that governor has valet along. He is Gibson, formerly at the Union League club, Jiew Tork, and his duty is to press th$ candidate's clothes, attend to the six or seven white vests which Hughes has made an indispensable part of his wardrobe, and finally to trim Hughes' beard. Incidentally that famous facial adornment is fading away—the governor now wears it trimmed very close on the cheeks. The only suggestion of luxuriance of growth is around the lips and chin.
Year6 ago the candidate had a regular crop qf face foliage. Now it looks like an imperia}«-only the governor insists that it shall be rounded over the chin, carefully parted .and brushed back. The proudest man in the northwest today was F. J. Rennig, dining gar instructor on the Northern Pacific. He was in general charge of the "eats" for the governor's party and today Hughes sent for him to compliment him on the food and to give him a signed picture.
Meets the Suffragettes.
Hughes began today hearing from his endorsement of equal suffrage. Women appeared on local .committees for Montana is a women's suffrage state. Tonight he was to meet Miss Jeanette Rankin, who is running on the republican platform against seven men for congressman-at-large. "We're going to elect her, too," remarked Miss Adele Fligelman, her campaign manager." She's stumping the state, is being met with bands and when she gets ii)to congress, we'll show the easterners something." Miss Rankin has done suffrage work in New Tork and is well known in suffrage organzations of the east.

and senate committees which had southern men as chairmen. "I have no criticism to make," he said, "of the honor, the respectability of the agreeable character of any of these men, but I say that an administration under which so many of the chairmen of the house of representatives are represented in that- maimer is a sectional administration. It -is not an American administrati.on in a broad and proper sense, "I wftnt Jto see the south built up. It can be Wilt up. J.t never will be built up, however, without republican policies feeing applied. I think many of the southern men are beginning to realize that. You can no more build up this country by historic doctrine than you could fly through the air with the old flying marines they experimented with. thirty years ago." "The situation in the. senate," Mr. Hughes said, "was much similar to that in the house,' especially with reference to the 'pork barrel committees.' The administration's tariff policy also was assailed.

Five happy couples were united by, the marrying squire during the day. The first couple was Mort Reynolds §,nd Miss Bernice Mosses, both well known young people of the city.

men strike?"'was asked'of A B. Garretson, president of the conductors' union, and spokesman for the employes, tonight. "I don't know," he said. "When will you "give a definite answer to the mediators?" he was asked. *1' don't know," he again replied.
When flaked the purpose of the meeting tomorrow, Gajrretson said: "The government mediators are now in the process of attempting to induce both parties Involved,to submit to arbitration. We may reach some decision tomorrow. I don't know."It should be remembered that the mediators are guided by the Newlands act," continued Garrietson. "If arbitration should be accepted by both parties the demands will be submitted to board of either three or six men, onethird from the unions, one-third from the railroads, and the other member or members to be named jointly. But we have nothing to arbitrate."
Some of the, delegates said tonight that in caee arbitration is accepted, the board of arbitrators would be composed of twelve men, so as to give each of the four brotherhoods an individual re port. The Newlands act does not limit the number of arbitration boards. Four boards of three men each could be ap pointed and could sit jointly.
ACCIDENT CAUSES STIR.
Car. Company Will Be Aaked to install Eleotric Signals. BTfAZIL, Ind., Aug. 12.—The accident at the Saunton road crossing at 3illtown this' morning when a limited ti-action car struck an automobile resulting in the dgath of Early Phillips, of near Cory, and James Twigg, aged 8. of Terre Haute, and serious injuries to Phillips' daughter and Mrs. William Twigg, mother of the boy, has aroused agitation against grade crossings.
County Attorney J. L. Burns said this afternoon that the board of commissioners would take the matter of grade, crpssings up at, the September session and proposed- to* afford the public better protection against such accidents. Mr. Burns said much complaint had been made against the Billtown -crossing because of the fact that on .the east side of the road at the crossing there, is a house just a short distance from the road and it obstructs the view from the east. The limited cars come down the long grade from Walnut hill at high speed and there have been several accidents at this crossing.
County Attorney Burns said that the commissioners would demand that the traction company put an electric alarm signal at this crossing and probably at other crossings which are not safe. Persons have also reported that the new electric alarm signal recently installed at the crossing, north of Knightsville does pot work properly a'nd that several people in automobiles have had narrow escapes.

Below, in thin .streams, columns: of troops were enroute to the front. There was great activity behind the German front as far as the eye could reach. There was no confusion anywhere. Everything moved like a cog in a grea/ machine. "The Earth Swayed."
The pilot glanced quickly above, and below. Finding the sky clear again, we began mounting. It was like being dragged up the face of a cliff at the tail-end" of an express train. Higher and higiier we sped in the direction of Kovel.
Then suddenly We dipped again and began falling. It was a terrible sensation. I wanted to shout "stop" but the. noise of the motor and the rush of air prevented.
The earth swayed and rolled. Everything seemed topsy-turvy. Twisting and turning we slid-earthward. Then, my judgment returning, I knew that we were spiralling above Kovel—circling round and round like a cork•screw until vWe .were within 300 feet of the ground.
Saw No Russians.
Such tricks the pilot played for half an hour. Then wfe landed. There is no.doubt the Germans are masters of the air on this front. While German planes depart for the fighting line frequently, no Russians crossed the line during our stay here. Officers at headquarters are absolutely confident that Kovel is impregnable. They are certain that the Russiap offensive has been crippled although aviators report black masses of Russians concentrated behind the battle front. New Russian bridges span the Stochod river. Near one city the Slays constructed thirty bridges and when these were not enough for the thick masses they waded the river, neck deep. Despite these extensive Russian preparations, the Germans $.re so confident of holding Kovel thcit they are building permanent quarters for the winter.
As we left headquarters by automo bile at 5 a. m. we saw a fleet of German "eagles" preparing for a raid. They carried two tons of explosives and assembled like birds in groups of five. First one sped toward the front, returning within an hour. Then two others followed, and,then five, until all had returned safely, their officers reporting success.
