SHARP ADVANCES IN VALUE OF CORN

CHICAGO, July 12. Sharp advances In the value of corn took place today owing, more or less, to active demand from millers and to prospects that the movement of corn to primary centers might soon be curtailed. Continued need of greater heat and moisture tended also to put the bears at a disadvantage. Most of the purchasing was ascribed to shorts. Opening prices, which ranged from to lVa higher with August 160 to 160, and September 160 to 160i. were followed by decided further gains. Oats bulged with corn. On the advance, however, hedging sales became noticeable and acted as a check on the bulls. After opening unchanged to 3c higher with August 71 to 724, the market steadied at a slight further gain. Higher quotations on hogs and grain lifted provisions. Offerings were light on the way up.

Crops in Rumania Taken by Huns, Peasants Left Without Food

(By Associated Press.) PARIS, July 12. Rumania's peasant population is in a more precarious condition from lack of food and clothing than at any time since Rumania entered the war. Reports reaching the Associated Press from authoritative sources indicate that all crops this year are failures. The crop ot corn, which In normal times is the great national staple, probably will yield less than one-twenty-fifth of the usual annual yield. Of wheat, maise and other cereals there is only enough to feed one-tenth of the population. What little food there was has been

requisitioned by the Germans. The bread ration has been reduced further and amounts to les3 than half a pound daily. The crops In Bessarabia are uncertain and are in almost as poor a condition as In Rumania. Owing partly to neglect and partly to lack of laor, seed and lack of rain. If the Germans expect any food from this waste territory, the report3 conclude, they can have only the slender hope of better crops next year. For teh present Germany will got only a mouthful.

Army Captain a Buyer. Capt. David A. Henkes, who was dismissed from the United States Army by court-martial for wishing to resign after being sent to France, and who was sentenced to twenty-five years at Fort Leavenworth, used part of his army pay to buy German bonds, according to Mr. Becker. After asserting that money raised on the bonds was eventually deposited to the credit of Dr. Heinrich F. Albert and Count VonBernstorff, Mr. Becker said In his statement: "In February, 1917, Just before Von Bernstorff sailed, he sent more than $400,000 to Buenos Aires for the account of the German government. "Dr. Albert and Count VonBernstorff checked out from the war loan funds in tho Central Trust Company and other Institutions In this city what money they needed for buying newspapers, "We have not finished with our examinations.

The expense of handling grain, is of course, much greater than was the case before the war and the buying margin can, therefore be legitimately Increased to meet such extra expense. The Indiana state food administration does not undertake to say that five cents or seven cents per bushel for handling wheat is profiteering. Complaints have come to the administration that margins as high as 10c per bushel have been asked by some dealers. "We have no hestitancy in saying that it is our judgment that the government would consider this margin as profiteering," says the state food
