MIXED CABLES ADD UNCERTAIN TONE TO GRAIN t Strong Cash Demand Large Influence in Corn; Oats Firm. Bi r nitcd Press CHICAGO, Oct. I—Wheat opened unevenly steady on the Board of Trade today under mixed foreign cables. Liverpool was firm and 1 cent higher, but broke on reports of rains in Australia and Russia cutting prices on the continent, stop loss orders being met. The government weekly weather report indicated a need of rain in the winter w'heat belt, especially lowa. Com was uneven with wheat, but showed more strength. Oats were lower on profit-taking. At the opening wheat was % cent lower to % cent higher, com was % cent lower to 114 cents higher and oats were % to % cent lower. Provisions were about steady. Leadership Lacking Liverpool opened slightly stronger but eased during the morning and by late in the day had fallen IY2 to lVa cents lower. Buenos Aires was lVa cents off at the start. There is a feeling that the urgent liquidation has been completed, but the market lacks leadership. Many traders think the market has turned the comer but others wait for another show of strength. A significant feature is the fact that cash wheat has not declined with the futures, being absorbed through milling channels and by feeders. Corn Strengthens December corn has declined 23lie from the high of last August and there is less disposition to press the selling side. The shipping demand remains large with the country offerings fairly small. The light frost reported during the past few days has done no damage as far as the reports state. Oats are being absorbed readily whenever offered. The feed situation is very strong and the cash interests are taking the nearby futures for feeding purposes. The market has a very good tone.

GIVES HAND IN X-RAYSSTUDY Physician’s Arm Is Cut at Wrist to Save Life. Bv United Pres? BALTIMORE. Oct. I.—The science of roentgenology claimed another toll from one of its pioneers today, when Dr. Christian Deetjen, Baltimore physician, submitted to an amputation of his left hand above the wrist. The operation was designed to check the persistent spread of mysterious injuries to skin, flesh and bone which constant use of X-ray equipment inflicts. It was performed by Dr. Alexius McGlannan, virtually a life-time friend of Deetjen, and one who has contributed his own surgical skill for the past twenty years to his colleague's fight against the ravages of the X-rays. As long ago as 1911, Dr. McGlannan performed a delicate skin grafting operation on Dr. Deetjen in an attempt to save the hand which was amputated today. There have been many other operations between that first skin grafting attempt and today's amputation. TALKS ON CHURCH WORK Head of Men's League In Address to Reformed Group.

BROTHER IS SHOT; DEPUTY HUNTS GANG

Goes on Trail of Bandits Who Slugged, Wounded His Kin. Owen Crickmore, 46, of 1266 Roosevelt avenue, is near death in city hospital today while deputy sheriffs, among them Crickmore’s brother, Ernest Crickmore, seek the bandits who robbed, shot and slugged Crickmore Tuesday night. Three of four bandits entered the Midway service station, north of the county line on the Allisonville road, and forced Owen Crickmore to hand over money. He made an effort to resist them and one of the youthful jandits shot him in the right lung while another slugged him with a blackjack. The bandits were armed with .45 automatic pistols and sawed-off shotguns. They are believed to be the same gang that shot up a Madison avenue barbecue last week after robbing patrons. An hour after Crickmore had been rushed to the hospital by his brother and other deputy sheriffs, four bandits whose descriptions tall'ed with Crickmore’s assailants, robbed Mr. and Mrs. C. R. Marcum, 939 Congress avenue, and W. F. Beher, Forty-second street and Cold Spring road, on the road at Fortyfourth street. Mr. and Mrs. Marcum were talking to Beher,’ a real estate salesman, when the Dandits forced Beher into Marcum’s large auto and Mr. and Mrs. Marcum into a small car similar to the one used in the Crickmore outrage. Marcum was robbed of 50 cents and his wife of $6. They were let out of the bandit’s car a block from where they had been robbed. The bandits took Beher to the Coffin golf course where they robbed him of money and jewelry valued at S6O. Forcing him to re-enter the car, they shoved him out at the county poor farm.
