WHEAT IS UNSETTLED

CHICAGO. July 21. The wheat mar

mid-season when there was great pres

wheat early, bet they retraced their steps and bought heavily of the fu

tities of cash wheat through Chicago houses, which is to go out by the
southern and eastern gateways. The

BECKER'S CONFESSION BRINGS LITTLE HOPE OF OFFICIAL PARDON
NEW YORK, July 21. Attorneys for Charles Becker, doomed to die in the electric chair next Wednesday for the murder of Herman Rosenthal, to
day had faint hope that Governor
Whitman would grant him official clemency. It is known that preparations al
ready were under way at Sing Sing
for the execution of Becker and his faithful wife was said to have little hope that Becker's long statement would save him.
Lawyers, who have watched the Becker case closely, pointed out that
because nearly all the men on whom
Becker, in his "confession" lays the blame for the murder of Rosenthal, are dead,, it is improbable that the
statement, signed at midnight last night in the death house at Sing Sing and carried early today to the gov
ernor, would cause much of a scurry
ing to cover in the underworld and
the "system." The "man higher up," named in Becker's statement as responsible for Rosenthal's murder is
"Big Tim" Sullivan. He is dead.

USE U. S. CONVICTS TO MAKE MUNITIONS PLAN OF GREGORY
WASHINGTON. July 21. Two thou
sand federal convicts at the Atlanta
and Fort Leavenworth penitentiaries
will be put to work making war supplies other than explosives for the United States, if plans now under con
sideration by Attorney General Greg
ory materialize. The attorney general has just returned from an inspection of the Leavenworth penitentiary.
He believes the convicts could be
used to advantage in manufacturing
shoes, uniforms, saddles, harness and
other supplies. He said today:
It wouhi be unsafe for the convicts to make explosives. There are so
many short termers insufficiently skilled to manufacture projectiles that this
class of munitions could not be made." The attorney general expressed the belief that trade unions would not oppose this move.

PICKETS CLASH
Continued From Page One. mob which later congregated outside the factory. The war on the subcontract shops doing work for the Remington company was carried on today with new vigor by the organizers of the machinists international body. The Remington company is installing new machinery, part of which is coming from the Bridgeport shops. Other shops are making accessories for the Remington works. The intention is to force the Remington works into submission by tieing up the outside shops. Machinists Quit. A few more men joined the strikers' ranks this morning. Some of the five hundred machinists who agreed yesterday to the increase in wages and an eight hour day, and with the body of machinists refused to walk out when the order was given yesterday, failed to show up for work this morning, and the picket line thrown out this morning induced twenty-five more of the union machinists not to go into the plant. The arms company used strategy when a group of seventy-five machinists showed up to go on the day shift. Teamsters used in carrying dirt were ordered to draw their carts up in front of the gates and move slowly. This effectually blocked the pickets from getting to the men returning to the shops. Others Join. A few of the diesinkers were also induced not to go into the plant. "We cannot tell how many men are out until we get the reports of the pickets," Thomas J. Savage, member of the executive committee of the International Association of Machinists, who in charge of the picketing, said this morning. The machinists already on strike are optimistic of the future, and at labor headquarters it was announced this morning, that a plan of further action would be ready before noon, but outside of inducing a few straggling machinists to join the cause there was nothing which would indicate any change in the situation.
BY VIRGINIA TERHUNE VAN DE
WATER. When all the dinner bills had been
paid Isabel bad only enough money left to run the house very simple un
til time for the next allowance to fall
due.
Jennie, like many other excellent
cooks, had "a free hand" with butter
and eggs. Try as she would, the
housekeeper could not live as cheaply as during Cynthia's regime. Then, too, the laundress ate a good deal. She must always have meat for luncheon, she said, and even that extra item on
Monday and Tuesday made a differ
ence in expenses.
Yet Isabel was determined to give
her dinner as soon as Mr. Ferris had
returned from his business trip. Therefore, before a fortnight had passed she asked John if he could advance some money to her. "Why. my dear," he said, "what's the matter?" "Several things," she replied. "One of them is that I want to give my little dinner soon. It is to be a very small affair, you know. I also need some new clothes now." John looked grave. "I don't understand," he mused, "how it happens that our daily expenses are so much more than they were last month." "Because we have a better cook," Isabel explained. "She makes good things and good things take butter, eggs, sugar and so forth." "Tell her to go slower," he counseled. "I don't like to find fault with her," his wife demurred. "She does as well as she knows how, and I don't want to make her dissatisfied she is so competent." A Competent Maid Seemed Necessary. She had already reached the point where she was dependent upon a competent maid. So speedily does each one of us become accustomed to what we once regarded as luxuries! "Well," said John. "I can advance you a third of next month's allowance if you are sure you can get on that month with what comes to you on the
first of May." "I will have to try to," Isabel told him. Then, impulsively, before her courage should fail, she added: "You remember, John, you said you would help me about buying my clothes when I needed them. I need them now." John glanced at. her r.eat dress and trim figure. "I think you look very nice in the frock you have on," heh asserted. "There's nothing the matter with that." She sighed impatiently. That's always what a man thinks," she complained. "You forget that this is a Winter dress, and that except for getting a cheap little straw hat for everyday wear 1 have not bought a single thing for Spring. And it's not fair, John." "No," he said soberly, "perhaps it
isn't. On Saturday I can let you have ten dollars toward your clothes. But that's all."
Ten dollars! What a little way that would go! Well, she could not get more just, now, so there was no use in bothering about the matter. Some
how she must save somewhere for the
things she needed. Yet. as she was clever with her needle and had a knack of "making over," she was able to remodel two of her last Spring dresses so that they were
stylish and pretty. She also bought a pair of new shoes. This done, she thought again of her dinner and wrote her invitation.-. although she had no new evening gown. Her guests were to be the Ferrises. Ella Sanger and David Duval. She did not mention these two last names to John until all had accepted. Her husband looked doubtful when she told him who was coming. "My dear," he said, "I wish you had consulted me before asking any man here. Still. Duval's all right. 1 like him better than Dennis. Dennis makes himself ridiculous by his devoted manner to women. I sometimes wonder how so sensible a woman as Adelaide Simmons stands having him around so much." "I fancy that he is an old friend like yourself isn't he?" she suggested in an innocent manner. "Perhaps so." he rejoined, ignoring the note of irony in her voice. "As to your othpr guests Mr. and Mrs. Ferris and KUa Sanger have they accepted '."' "Yes." Isabel replied. "They all accepted with apparent pleasure." "You remember that. Ella Sanger is Adelaide Simmons' cousin." John Said. "Do you think you can invite her without inviting Adelaide?" "I have done so," Isabel replied. "Does Ella know that Adelaide is not coming?" "I did not tell her but I don't care whether she knows or not. I do not consider it necessary to consult my guests as to whom I shall invito to my home." "I was only afraid." John ventured, "that Adelaide might be hurt if her cousin was invited and she was not." There was a long silence. Isabel felt her temper striving with her patience and wondered for a moment which would get the upper hand. She closed her lips firmly, resolved not to put herself in the wrong by being the first to speak. If she said nothing, John might drop the subject, or drag it in by force. He took the latter course after a
