WHEAT IS IRREGULAR ON CHICAGO MARKET BY LEASED WIRE. CHICAGO. Feb. 27. Wheat rules Irregular during the day, and was quite strong late, more because of small offerings In the pit than of any urgency in the demand. The net gains for the day were 24 to 4 ?c. Cash sales of wheat here were very small, and they were reported as small at the seaboard. Corn closed at 2 to 2!c higher, and oats were up 14c to lc. Cash sale3 of corn here were 795,000 bushels, with, 500,000 bushels for export.Hog products were higher. VETERINARIANS FAVOR , CHOLERA QUARANTINE The blame for the wide-spread .ravages - of hog cholera was ' placed largely on the farmers, by the veterinarians in the state in the third annual Hog Cholera Conference at Lafayette. Dr. Lee C. Hoover of this city attended the meeting and said that the reports from all over the state indicated that cholera was still prevalent, and that in most localities little progress bad been made because the farmers were too skeptical, and would not help stamp out the disease. He said that the veterinarians who attended the meeting were in favor of the passage of quarantine regulations that would make it possible to quarantine a farm where cholera was present, just as effectively as for the foot and mouth disease. Then the farmer would begin to wake up, and something could be accomplished. FARM BRINGS $10,200 Another big real estate transaction, made a matter of record today, brought the record of the past week to the hiphest in a year. Wilson B.

BIBLE SCHOOLS ASSURE PEACE FOR CONTINENT Marion Lawrance Leads the Combined Forces of Sun day Schools in Move to Guarantee Disarmament. MARION LAVVRANCE. Marion . Lawrance, . commander-in chief of North America's organized Sunday-school forces, will speak to the citizens of Richmond. Wednesday, March 17, concerning the great war on the liquor traffic now being waged by the International Sunday School association. He will tell also of the strategic position occupied by the Sunday School army for the upbuilding of the nation's future. Mr. Lawrance believes that the Sunday-school is a stronger guarantee of peace than all the armored cruisers in existence. The particular occasion of Mr. Lawrance's visit to Richmond, March 17, is to head the International Adult Bible Class Tour Party, including W. C. Pearce and Bert Cashman (of the International Staff); George W. Bond, projectionist, and Dr. Geo. W. Lau, director of the May Festival Chorus in Detroit, Michigan. The tour party will hold a series of educational and inspirational meetings for the uplift of Adult Bible Class Work in the Sunday school.

Asked by Chief Counsel Folk whether he considered the big salaries paid officers of the Rock Island proper. Mills assumed the oficers were entitled to what they received. The ire of James Speyer, the New .York banker, was aroused when Counsellor Folk asked him if his house had ever agreed to buy suit cases from the ! Rock Island and later had declined to keep the agreement. "That is an insulting question," said Speyer. "That would be a dishonest action." "I care very much about public opinion of New York bankers," said Speyer. "So much has been sjid against Wall Street and its methods I think someone should say a good word and set the public right." BECK FAMILY HEARS BURGLAR IN HOUSE Members of the family of the Rev. Joseph Beck, 130 South Seventh street, are convinced that some one got into the house about 6 o'clock last evening while they were at supper, but was frightened away before he had an op portunity to secure any valuables. "We carelessly left the front door unlocked," the Rev. Mr. Beck said today. "While we were at supper we imagined we heard some one walking about the second floor. Investigation failed to find any trace of a burglar, but a window in a bed room, which we knew to have been closed, was found open." A member of the family of W. B. Dye. 122 South Seventh street, telephoned to the police, but the officers were unable to find any trace of the thief. The neighborhood was greatly excited by the report. BAKERS HOLD COST OF BREAD STEADY The fact that bakers in several of the larger cities will soon go back to selling five cent bread, will not influence local bakers to increase th'j ; weight, of loaves. i A member of a local baking firm j said today: "We have all agreed that j we will not increase the price of. bread ! in Richmond, nor do we anticipate any i further change in the weight of bread. We hope that by the time' we have to buy more flour the price will have dropped so that we can go ahead and make the loaves on the old scale of sixteen ounces."

STATE SOLONS KILL 115 BILLS IN 15 MINUTES BY LEASED WIRE. INDIANAPOLIS. Ind.. Feb. 27. In less than fifteen minutes time today Speaker Bedwell in the house caused the killing of 102 bills. The speaker's action was the most rapid peace of legislation work witnessed , during the present session of the legislature. As the number of each bill and the author's name was called, the speak er's gavel fell and without discussion each fall cf the gavel spelled death to some proposed law. House members shouted consent as the wholesale slaughter of bills was being accomplished. All of thfi measures cleaned off the house calendar had been actec upon In committee, and the represen tatives favoring indefinite postponement whether signed by a majority of committee members or not were concurred in. Bills pertaining to the fish and game laws died by handfuls, road laws went down with the rest, the boxing commission bill, the Cleary equal right3 bill, the measure compelling circuses and theatres to show what they advertised, the bill prohibiting children under 14 to Eell newspapers or anything j else on the streets at night, and the : bill to create a moving picture censor ship board were among the dead. GRAND PRIX RACE RUN BY LEASED WIRE) SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 27. To the crack of a pistol Starter Fred J.

The start was made at 10:30 a. m., Pacific Coast time and at 15 seconds intervals, additional starters were given the word. By the time fifty miles of the race 1 had been run, rain began to fall with : no promise of let up and the calling ! off of the race at anytime was a strong probability. All the cars began to skid and their drivers were forced to take the chances. It looked like a continental tour rather than a cup race. At the .75 mile post Resta in a Peugot was first, closely foitowaA kjr Ruckstell in a Mercer.
