HEARD ON THE BOURSE. Ware & Leland We believe the wheat situation has turned and frofn now on would suggest purchases whenever breaks occur. Logan-Bryan It looks as if there are many holes to be filled in competition with the millers buying. Clement, Curtis & Co. The underlying strength of wheat will support buying for a moderate advance from the present level. Finley, Barrell & Co. We believe it advisable not to become too enthusiastically bearish on the breaks in wheat from now on. Bartlett, Patten & Co. It takes sur
plus wheat to break prices and there is no immediate indication of any such

West Hammond Preparing
for Many Improvements Next Year.
The progressive property holders of
West Hammond are rejoicing in a pros
pective Improvement for West Ham
mond in the way of street pavements
A hearing was held this morning on
the pavement of three streets they be
ing Douglas, Forsythe, and Tngraham
avenues from Plummer avenue to One Hundred and Fifty-fourth street. The
pavement will be ten inches deep.
The property owners have already de
cided on the pavement of One Hundred
and Fifty-fourfi place and this is to be of brick. It Is not likely that any of these Improvements will be made this year, but the property owners
have gained so much time for nex
year so they can go right ahead with
the building. With the exception of the remonstrance of Peter Mak, former village president, there was little remonstrance against the improvement. Nearly all the property owners realize that the improvement will greatly enhance their property values and that the section to be improved will make one of the most desirable residence districts in West Hammond.

SIOP WATCHES ARE PULLED
Captain Halpin of South Chicago
Threatens to Glencoize Chauffeurs Unless They Desist.
The building at 9144 Commercial
venue, occupied by Cole & Young,
ewelers, and owned by the latter, Is
o have an additional story, and work
men have already begun the work of looking to Its completion by Nov. 15.
The size of the ground floor struc
ture is 25x 95 -feet and Is used exclusively by the well-known firm,
while the new addition will be laid
out in office suites and will be ready
for occupancy not later than Dec. 1. Mr. Young declared that at least $8,000 would probably be the amount Involved. Hansen Sc Bonnickson are the contrac
tors.
Enlarge Other Buildings. This is the second building in the
South Chicago loop district that will
be enlarged in the near future, the
other which is now under construction
s that of R. M. Brown, 9117 Commer
cial avenue, and when completed will
be known as the Kimball building.
For some time past South Chicago
real estate men have been anxious to get options on property In the loop
district and especially on Commercial avenue, south of Ninety-second street.
as they have anticipated an area of progress and rapid development. It seems that their dreams are showing signs of realization. The drift of
building activity has been north of Ninety-second street on Commercial avenue, toward the city.
One new building which Is all but
completed and which has attracted considerable notice the Gross building, 9045 Commercial avenue has put great Impetus in that territory of the
business district. This is a threestory building and it is understood that nearly all the space has been leased.
More Concrete Wnlk. Another noticeable thing in the way
of improvement of Commercial avenue
is that more concrete sidewalks have been laid during the past three months than for years in fact, there has been
considerable territory laid with cement walks that always heretofore was con
structed of boards, especially Is this
true on the west side of the street, be
tween Ninety-first and Ninetieth
streets, where may be found some of
the most substantial business houses in South Chicago. But, however, the
astonishing thing about this particular locality on Commercial avenue is that the property owners, by their shortsighted policy, are directly responsible
for the delay in bringing about the improved conditions, and who, in the
main, are the chief beneficiaries.
Automobiles leaving Jackson Tark on Jeffery avenue and making the run out to South Chicago have little re
gard for the speed limit. "Fly cops" have been placed along the route during the past few days, and It is found that nearly every automobile that passes over the route is exceeding the
speed limit. Many accidents have been
averted by the offenders and If the speeding continues they are to be heavl'y fined. Accident Sunday Night. The accident of Sunday night which six persons were injured in a head-on collision has caused the South Park policemen to be wary and arrests are likely to follow. From eighteen to twenty-five miles an hour was the average speed of the automobiles at times yesterday. A few went alone at fourteen or fifteen miles an hour, but a number of the slow chauffeurs had
sighted the timers and acted accordingly.
Jeffery avenue, according to the Chi
cago Automobile Club Journal is the
ew doorway through which automo-
bilists have found It Impossible to gain
access to the magnificent net work of
roads through the Indiana towns passing through. South Chicago and Hammond the old route which nearly all the automobilists took last year througrh Rlyerdale and Dalton on account of the bad roads through South Chicago has been discarded. With the opening of Jeffery avenue a few months ago a new gateway has been opened. On Saturday and Sunday hundreds of automobilists pass through this route leaving Jacksan Park being away from the v'gllance of the police they proceed to burn up the road on Jeffery avenue. The road Is hard and level and offers an Ideal speed way as far as Ninety-
second street. South Chicago.
Until Saturday afternoon this south side region has been free from the click of the invading stop watch. Recently the Chicago Automobile Club Journal compared the "jolting jarry" as well ar "hostile" Sheridan road run with Jeffery avenue, congratulating automobilists on tho absence of 'lurking contabulary and stop watch pickets" along the latter course. One reason for the eruption of speed mania along Jeffery avenue was that Jchn Halpin of the South Chicago police station, who surmised that auto-
mobilists imagine they can "cut up" when they pass Jackson Park. Captain
Halpin declares that he does not propose to be more lax than the Glencoe
authorities.
Vehicle Inspector Patrick Ward said emphatically that Jeffrey avenue dis
trict came under the "resident section" of the automobile law and at any rate over fifteen miles an hour was ia Rela
tion of the law.

Giving Him a Hint. They were walking under a very little umbrella, and she liked it well enough not to want a large spread of alpaca. He was modest and seemed to be nervous, and she finally remarked, very Boftly, and with a note of interrogation: "Cbarlie, I'll carry the umbrella, if you will let me?" "Oh, no!
