CORN MARKET GAINS FRESH STRENGTH

CHICAGO. July 11. Fresh strength developed in the corn market today owing largely to unfavorable crop advices. The government weekly report and the Kansas weekly report attracted especial notice from the bulla. Need of rain and of warmer weather was emphasized. Opening prices, which varied from 3-8 decline to l-2c advance with August 155 1-2 to 155 3-4 and Sptember 166 to 156 1-4. were followed by a decided upturn all around. Evidence of seaboard demand gave firmness to oats. For the most part, though, trade was local. After opening unchanged to 1-4 off with August 70 S-8 to 70 1-2. the market scored moderate general gains. Provisions averaged higher with grain and hogs. Sellers were scarce.

(By Associated Press.) LONDON, July 11. How the Rumanian armies lost an opportunity of annihilating the German and Bugarlian armies in the Dobruja in 1916 is revealed in a confidential document which has just reached the Associated Press, from an authoritative source in Rumania. The document contains an account of a conversation between Field Marshal Von Mackensen and the Rumanian military leaders which occurred shortly after the Rumanian peace terms were signed. Von Mackensen declared that the failure of the Rumanians to press their advantage in 1916 changed the whole course of the war. He said that his entire army could easily have been defeated and forced to surrender and this might have been followed by a separate peace with Bulgaria which would have separated Turkey from her allies and changed the whole balance of power in the east. The Rumanian failure, the Memorandum states, was not due to the military leaders, but the short sightedness of the politicians at Bucharest. In September, 1916, Gen. Averseau. commander-in-chief of the Rumanian army and by far the ablest of all the Rumanian generals had taken an army of four divisions and crossed the Danube into the heart of the enemy's country. He found a clear path into the heart of the German-Bulgarian army and penetrated fifteen miles with a view to cutting off their communications and striking them from the rear. General Averseau's own position was safe, for behind him he had eight divisions of support and reinforcements including Serbian and Rumanian troops of the first quality. Command From Cabinet. But Averseau had neglected to cut the wires which conected him with the politicians in the Rumanian capital, and he only got fifteen miles beyond the Danube when there came a peremptory order to withdraw his forces. It was an absolute command from the war cabinet. Averseau tried to reason with the political chieftains over a long distance telephone wire and even threatened to resign, but the politicians had decided and refused to change the decision. The cabinet, it appeared, felt that there was danger of the German armies on the other side of Rumania the Carpathian front breaking through and doing a great deal of harm at a time when Rumania's army was far afield. The politicians timidly preferred a defensive policy to a daring offensive and after a day or two of delay. Averseau and his army .-withdrew from their commanding position in VonAIackensen's rear and retired back across the Danube. The Germans were much puzzled by this manoevure and never were

able to secure a satisfactory explanation of this withdrawal of their enemy at the very moment when his cause seemed won. Von Mackensen was an old pre-war friend of Averceau and knew the latter's abilities too well to underestimate them. That was why Von Mackensen sought out Averseau during the peace parleys a few weeks ago at Bucharest. "Why did you withdraw?" asked Von Mackensen. "If you had gone forward you most certainly would have bagged the whole of the Bulgarian and German armies in the Dobruja."

WAR INDUSTRIES NEEDS LISTED

The government has sent out re-1

quests for gun stocks, bayonets, and machine keys according to the statement made Thursday by H. R. Robinson, chairman of the Richmond subregional Industrial board. Mr. Robinson attended the meeting of the chairmen of the sub-regions in Cincinnati on Tuesday. Richmond is to be supplied by the government with a list of all the different articles needed in the war in order that manufacturers may have the opportunity of knowing whether or not they are in a position to manufacture any of the needed articles in their factory. Lists will be sent out from the Richmond office to all firms interested. The Cincinnati region has been assigned $1,700 as its proportion in the quota needed to carry on this work. Richmond will be expected to furnish a quota as a sub-region. One-tenth of this amount has 'been asked for immediately and an amount sufficient to take care of that one-tenth will be advanced in the near future by the various industries forming this sub-region. A meeting of the chairmen of the boards in this region will probably be held on Friday. Any requests for information or blue prints may be obtained from Mr. Robinson. A meeting of the chairmen of the sub-regional boards will be held the second Tuesday of each month in Cincinnati. The chairmen are: Richmond, H. R. Robinson; Indianapolis, William H. Insley; Evansville. O. A. Klamer; Cincinnati, J. C. Hobart; Dayton, John T. Nielson; Portsmouth, O., Frank M. Baggs; Marietta, O., Arthur H. Strieker; Louisville, Ky., "W. E. Morrow. Mr. Edwin C.

MISSES TRAIN AND ; TAKES AIRPLANE TO KEEP ENGAGEMENT

It's Just a leisurely, comfortable jaunt from Dayton, O., to Indianapolis 112 miles m an hour. "Express' speed makes the time thirty-five minutes. - ' Why hesitate about missing a train in this day and age? The journey can be made more speedily otherwise. A. Bennett Gates, president of the Hotel Severin. made the discovery on Wednesday when he flew from Dayton, O.. to Indianapolis to keep an appointment after missing his train. His experience at a height of 5.000 feet in a battle plane was mad with rant w

A. Hannay. of the British Aviation Mission and is described as entailing sensations too numerous to mention. The distance of 112 miles was covered in exactly one hour. Mr. Gates, who had made a business trip to the Hotel Miami at Dayton, had a noon engagement at Indianapolis. Disappointed in missing the train, the hotel man was shown a way out of his difficulty by Capt. Hannay. who was making a trip to the Speedway. The engagement was important and the invitation was accepted. Get you there in "thirty-five minutes," said the captain. "Thanks." said Mr. Gates, "but an hour will do nicely." "The sensations I enjoyed, or rather suffered, are entirely too numerous to mention," Mr. Gates said after it was over, "but now since the scare is over. I'm frank to "say I'd go through the experience again." The machine, a d'Havllland battle plane, is of the British type now being used in actual warfare in France, equipped with a Rolls-Royce motor. Part of the trip the machine flew at a speed of 129 miles an hour, the captain said. He described the trip as a leisurely, comfortable jaunt. His passenger says it was a wild, reckless flight through space. The first Ave minutes he feared he was going to die, and in the next five minutes he feared he wouldn't, he said. The plane left the Dayton-Wright experimental field at 10 a. m., alighting at the Speedway on the stroke ol 11. It passed over Richmond about 10:30 o'clock.
