MARKET VARIES AS WEATHER CHANGES (By Associated Press) CHICAGO. May 10. Predictions of warmer weather turned the corn market today downgrade. At first, however, prices had an upward tendency, owing to the frosts last night and to other conditions adverse to planting and to the movement of the crop. Extensive wire trouble curtailed business to a material extent and caused the market to be easily influenced. Opening quotations, which varied from the same as yesterday s finish to l-2c higher with May 127 1-2 and July 147 5-8 to 17 7-8. were followed by a decided setback. Oats swayed with corn. General commission house selling accompanied the break in prices. After opening l-4c off to 5-8c advance with July 68 to 68 1-4. the market receded sharply all around. .. Provisions were ruled by the action of grain. High prices on hogs had only a transiet effect.

Von Hindenbnrg's Name to Be Inscribed On Gate of Castle in Prussia
(By Associated PresM AMSTERDAM, May 10-Emperor William is congratulating Field Marshal Von Hindenburg upon the Rumanian peace treaty, according to Berlin newspapers of Thursday, notified the military leader that the big entrance gate to the old castle of the Knights of the Teutonic order at Marianburg, Prussia, would have his
name and arms inscribed on it. The i
emperor also expressed the desire to name other parts of the castle after German generals. His telegram to the field marshal reads: "News of the conclusion of peace with Rumania fills me with pride and joy. Our eastern front is free. I thank God, the Lord. I thank you, my dear Field Marshal, who victoriously wielded the German sword. "In memory of the fact that the eastern march was protected from conquest by the battle of Tannenberg, I have ordered that the renovation of the Plauen stronghold, the old German knights' castle of Marienburg which was planned in 1910 in memory of Heinrich Von Plauen, shall now be carried out and that the big entrance gate shall bear your name and your arms. It is my desire that other turrets of the stronghold bear the names of Generals who especially distinguished themselves in the defense of the eastern frontier."

Ullman Expected to Come Here Next Week
In answer to inquiries frequently made concerning the origin of the Red Cross emblem, the organization has issued the following information: The Red Cross was founded through a diplomatic convention held in Geneva, Switzerland, in 1864. The treaty of Geneva, or, as it is sometimes called, the Red Cross treaty, provided for a flag for hospitals and convoys, and an arm badge for persons. The design proposed was a red cross on a white ground. This was in compliment to the country in which the congress was sitting, the Swiss flag' being a white cross on a red ground. The Red Cross flag, therefore, is the national flag of Switzerland with the colors reversed.

NAME COMMITTEES FOR MEMORIAL DAY
A meeting of the Memorial Day executive committee, with Charles W.
(Jordan, chairman, was held Thursday
to formulate plans for the usual observance of Memorial Day, May 30. It was the unanimous opinion of the committee that the coming Memorial Day be observed more sacredly and
with deeper significance than ever before, partly because of a heavy loss of
Civil War veterans the past year, and also on account of so many of our young men serving under the colors now.
The following were appointed as j
chairmen of the different committees, the individual members to be appointed later by . the different patriotic organizations: W. H. Hansche,
C. Darnell, chairman flower commit- J
tee ; F. S. vv ebb. chairman hall and decoration committee; George Matthews, chairman committee on cemetery decoration; A. F. Ireton, chairman transportation committee. The rnmnilttfin remiests the nnhlto
! to refrain from private decorating of
graves with flowers until after the
soldiers graves nave been decorated, so that If there be a scarcity of flow- j
ers the soldiers graves may not have to go without the customary flowers. It is the 'Unanimous wish of this Committee that the press of the city be furnished with a copy of the foregoing and that they be kindly asked to publish same as a patriotic communication.
