SHARP RAISE 111 GRAIN PRICES CHICAGO, July 28. Uneasiness re gardlng the effectiveness of the switchmen's strike had much to do today with a sharp advance that took place In prices of grain and provisions. Shorts la the corn trade were especially disturbed over the disturbance which the strike had suddenly brought about in shipping arrangements. Continuance of dry hot weather In the southwest counted also as a bullish influence. Purchasing was on a large scale. Opening prices, which varied from the same as yesterday's finish t6 lic higher, with September at 1S3 and December at 1174 to 113 were followed by a Jump to about 2o up In the active deliveries. Wheat rose in sympathy with corn. Trading, however, was very light. After opening 4c higher at 226 September the market reacted to 238. Shorts and commission bouses were bidding eagerly against each other for oats. Reports continued that the Dutch government was calling for Immediate seaboard loading of ail the grain that had been purchased in Holland.. Provisions responded to an advance In the bog market, a circumstance due In turn to the strike having seri ously curtailed arrivals of hogs. GRAIN QUOTATIONS TOLEDO. July 28.

Comma 1915 B She went over the bridge on1 tiptoes, like nothing else under heaven but Yasmlni at her bewitchingest. And without pausing on the far side she danced up the hewn stone stairs, dived Into the dark hole and was gone! "Come!" yelled Ismail in King's ear. He could have heard nothing less, for the cavern was like to burst apart from the tumult. "Whither?" the Afridi shouted in disgust. "Does the wind ask whither? Come like the wind and see! They will remember next that they have a bone to pick with thee! Come". away 5 " That seemed good enough ' advice. He followed as fast as Ismail could shoulder a way out between the frantic Hlllmen, deafened, stupifled, numbed, almost cowed by the ovation they were giving the "Heart of the their Hills." CHAPTER XII As they disappeared after a scramble through the mouth of the same tunnel they had entered by, a roar went up behind them like the birth of earthquakes. Looking back over his shoulder, King" saw Yasmini come back into the hole's mouth, to stand framed in it and bow acknowledgment. She looked so ravishing in contrast to the huge grim wall, and the black river, and the darkness at her back, that Khinjan's thousands tried to storm the bridge and drag her down to them. The guards were put hard to it, with their backs to the bridge end, for two or three minutes. But Ismail would not let him wait and watch from there. He dragged him down the tunnel and pushed him up on to a ledge where they could both see without being seen, through a fissure in the rock. For the space of five minutes Yasmlni stood in the great hole, smiling and waching the struggle below. Then she went, and the guards began to get the best of it, because the crowd's enthusiasm waned when they could see her' no more. Then suddenly the guards began to loose random volleys at the roof and brought down hundredweights of splintered stalactite. Within a minute jthere were a hundred, men busy sweeping up the splinters.

In three minutes more the whole arena was a dinning Whirlpool, and the river's voice was drowned in shouting and the stamping Of naked feet cn stone. "Come!" urged Ismail, and led the way. King's last impression was of the stalactites and the hurrying river that multiplied the dancing lights into a million, and the great roof hurled the din down again to make confusion with the new din coming up.

"Where are we?" King asked. ' "Where none dare seek us." Ismail held the lamp high, shielding its wick with a hollowed palm and peering about him as if in doubt, his ragged beard looking like smoke in the wind; for a wind blew down all the passages in Khinjan. King examined the lamp. It was of bronze and almost as surely ancient Greek as it surely was not Indian. There were figures graven on the bowl representing a woman dancing, who looked not unlike Yasmini; but before he had time to look very closely Ismail blew the lamp out and was off again, like a shadow shot into its mother night.

Largest Military Review in History at Fort Ben Aug. 10

INDIANAPOLIS, July 28. The largest military review ever held at Fort Benjamin Harrison, where thousands of young men from West Virginia, Ohio, Kentucky and Indiana are training for the officers' reserve corps, has been set for Aug. 10. In addition to MaJ. Gen. Barry, commander of the Central department, the governors of the four states represented by the candidates have been invited to attend. Governors Cox of Ohio; Stanley, of Kentucky, and Goodrich of Indiana, already have visited the fort. . Staging the review shortly before the close' of the training camp, will show to the best advantage what the men have learned. All told about 12,000 troops will take part. . There has been a great improvement in tbe ptudent officers and their ability. As the camp nears a close, and as various ones have been given opportunities to display their ability to handle men In different formations, and to meet many suppost situations, stories are being circulated concerning the earlier experiences of the temporary officers and their ways of extricating themselves from seemingly unmanageable tangles. One student officer In his first attempt to command succeeded In tying gave him the end of a cotton girdle that he unwound from his waist; then he plunged ahead again into Cimmerian blackness, down a passage so narrow that they could touch a wall with either hand. Once be shouted back to duck, and they passed under a low roof where water dripped on them, and the rock underfoot was the bed of a shallow stream. After that the track began to rise, and the grade grew so steep that even Ismail, the furious, had to slacken pace. They began, to climb titanic stairways all in the dark, feeling their way through fissures in the mountain's framework, up zigzag ledges, and over great broken lumps of rock from one cave to another; until at last in one great cave Ismail stopped and relit the lamp. Hunting about with its aid he found an imported "hurricane" lantern and lit that, leaving the bronze lamp in its place. Soon after that they lost sight of walls to their left for a time, although there were no stars, nor any light to suggest the outer world nothing but wind. The wind blew a hurricane. Their path now was a very narrow ledge formed by a crack that ran diagonally down the face of a black cliff cn their right. They hugged the stone because of a sense of fathomless space above belowon every side but one. The rock wall was the one thing tangible, and the footing tbe crack in it afforded was the gift of God. The moaning wind rose to a shriek at intervals and made their clothes flutter like ghosts' shrouds, and in spite of it King's shirt was drenched with sweat, and his fingers ached from clinging as if they were on fire. Crawling against the wind along a wider ledge at the top, they came to a chasm, crossed by a footwide causeway: The wind howled and moaned In it, and the futile lantern rays only suggested unimaginable thingss death the least of them. "Art thou afraid?" asked Ismail, holding the lantern to King's face. "Kuch dar nachin hai!" he answered. "There is no such thing as fear!" To be continued

his men in a knot which puzzled him, and tbe more commands be gave and the more they obeyed the worse the tangle appeared. The Instructing officer offered no suggestions. Finally In obedience to a command which was not meant to work that way the company marched Into a fence where it had to stop. The cadet was almost desperate, but quickly ordered: "Get away from that fence! March!" Another story concerns the situation In which a student officer found himself when putting a number of fellow students through some squad formattlons. All went well until the end of the drill when he attempted to get them back to tbe original position. He was unable to do so, and finally shouted: - "As you were at first! March!" Cox Tells StoryGovernor Cox, of Ohio, who visited the fort ' recently told how be had solved the difficulties of target practice. The 6tory told by the Governor was quoted as follows: . "I was out at the rifle range and Major Darrow asked me If I would'nt like to try shooting. The men were shooting from the 600 yard range. I said 'yes,' so Major Darrow borrowed a rifle for me from one of the men, and another for himself. We lay down across the sand bags and began pegging away. "After each shot by either of us, the man down in the pit waved the red flag which means we had missed the target altogether. "Finally, after about half a dozen shots apiece, the major said, 'Young man, telephone down to that man In the pit that Major Darrow is shooting.' The 'young man' did. Then the major shot again, and the pit man waved the emblem which signified that the Major had hit the bulls-eye. "Then I said to myself, 'oh-ha' and turned to the man on my right and said, 'Young man, telephone down to the pit man that the Governor of Ohio Is shooting.' The next shot, I hit the bulls-eye, too". .
