WHEAT PRICE SHOWS FLIGHTY UPTURNS

CHICAGO, Jom 4. Wheat prices today thawed a tendency to make flighty bat Ill-sustained upturns. Trading was too unrestricted to allow of much significance being attached to the advances, which were attributed largely to the absence yet of any considerable amount of hedging sales of the new crop. Opening prices, which ranged from lc to 2c higher, with July at $8 07 to $2.08 and 8ept. at $1.92 were followed by relative weakness in the Bept. option but then by sharp gains all around, and later by a material sag. Favorable weather had a bearish efot on cam. Sneculative selling was

on a large scale. After opening 1 off

to 4 higher, the market raiuea a mue, and then suffered a decided general fall, which, however, was later virtually ATATCOme.

Oats declined chiefly, as a result of good crop prospects. Trading was

only of a scattering character. -T.arser receints of hogs than expect

d acted as a weight on the provision market. .. Moreover, foreign advices

were bearish.

WEIDNER REQUIRES

PROMPT PAYMENT OF DELINQUENT TAX

Ed. J.' Weidner, treasurer of Wayne

county, today announced the adoption of a policy requiring the prompt payment of all tax delinquencies.

a admit the tax laws are wnouy inadequate, but it is my duty to enforce them, and it can never be said of me that f allowed tax delinauencies to

accumulate three or four years before an effort at collection was made. I intend to proceed with the collection of back taxes just as soon as the delinquencies occur," Weidner explained. The ' county .treasurer is now proceeding with collection of delinquent taxes due the first of May. Issues Explanation. In explaining his purpose he Issued the following statement today- to the taxpayers of Wayne county: "The county treasurer is now mailing notices of delinquent tax and public improvement assessments due, Monday, May 7, 1917. The law requires me to sell any real or personal property of anyone who is delinquent, so, if you are delinquent, please call at the treasurer's office and save both of us time and unnecessary expense. "I will admit the present method of taxation is a hardship on the small tax-

narer. and I hope our national govern

ment will completely take over the taxing function. The people will obey Uncle Sam, but there is lax observance of city, county and state laws. Will Uphold the Law. . "The neonle of Wayne county elect

ed me to the office I hold, so please do not be offended if I ask you to payj your taxes. Help me to uphold the laws of our state until the proper re-; lief comes, which is not far away. L am going to give the people of Wayne' county efficient service throughout my) entire term and there will be no grand ; tax paying rush at the end of my term.j The tax duplicates and records in the; treasurer's office are open to public in-; spection. so drop In and look them: over. Maybe you can give us some advise as to how to improve them."

The Kronstadt sailors who came to Petrograd said the demonstrations would go for the purpose of bringing out new elections on members of the Council of Workmen's and Soldiers' delegates, whose present members were denounced as bourgeoise. The sailors also demanded that former Emperor Nicholas be handed over to them. At street meetings they expressed dissatisfaction with war minister . Kerensky and the whole provisional government, particularly for abolition of the death penalty, which they characterized as premature. On visiting the Gutuyeff quarter the correspondent found that a large quantity of sulphur was afire. There were evidence of a violent explosion. Windows at r considerable distance were broken. It appears that at 9 o'clock this morning the ice breaker Oranienaum. instead of the Kronstadt warships, arrived off Gutuyeff. It was flying the red flag. - On it were sailers and workmen who were singing the hymn of the Bolshevik! extremists.
