ocal GRAIN QUOTATIONS WAGNER'S GRAIN LETTER CHICAGO, July 21. Early bulge was on ending of stock yard strike, rise of 25 to 75 cents In hogs, more reports of moderate oats crop. Corn and oats became stale on the bulge. The seaboard labor strlks continues. No change. September and December cats at 82 are effected by English oats import maximum. Foreign exchange 13 very weak being down to $4.28 with talk of $4. European financial situation looks serious. Further advance in United States prices against their poverty looks ridiculous.

Thirty-five Hundred Aliens Leave for Home With $8,000,000 They Salted Away While Working in United States; Many Will Not Return
5 Part of three boatloads of aliens which NEW YORK, July 21. Three steam-' ships ere bound for southern European ports, taking as passengers 3,500 aliens. It is estimated by the government officials that each alien represents an average of $2,500 saved while working in this country and that a great majority will never return to the United States. The 3,500 represent $8,000,000 "salted." Since the restrictions governing emigration, which were transferred during the war, have been lifted there have been many applications for passports by aliens to return to their native lands. A majority are from Italy, Greece, Portugal, Czechoslovakia and the Balkan states. Many Italians Going Home The sailing of the three liners for southern European ports was the reason for the big rush of applicants, government officials say. The liners are the Re d'ltalia,. carrying 1,240; the Caserta, with 1,250 and the Giu seppe Verdi, with 1,850, for Mediterranian ports. All of those applying for passports had to show the government agents that they paid the Income tax. and that they were not taking out of the country any contraband bank notes or coin.

left New York in single day recently. one of the three steamers. to take with them more than $1,000, and that in letters of credit, bank boobs and bonds of certain kinds. A majority of the applicants are men. One official said that the applicants would be divided into three classes in regard to their reasons for wanting to go home. First, there are those who made it a custom to leave America every autumn and return every following spring. Persons in that class, principally Italians, have found It impossible to return during the war years, and, fourfold richer than ever before, are sailing early this year. However, even in this class are many who will not return for three or four years at least. Reservists are Returning Then there are those who wanted to see what damage war had done to their home countries and to gather together what remains of their families. In this class is included those men who were reservists in the armies of their fatherland, but who were unable to respond to the call of their sovereign because of lack of transportation. Nothing excuses these men from military duty and they are going back to clear themselves and that they may be regarded as fugitives.

The third class are those wiio. like the great majority of south Europeans, came to America to make their fortunes that they might spend their later years in ease in their native villages. The high wages of the war years made the desired fortunes quick of atainment and these men are returning years before they would have gone had times been normal. Have $2,500 Each on Average It is estimated that each applicant represented an average bankroll of $2,500. This amount ten years ago would have been sufficient to maintain a peasant family for the rest of their natural lives. The enormous increase in prices even in the old countries makes this simple retirement Impossible today. Therefore it is figured that many of the emigrants will seek readmlssion to the United States within tie next five years. With the exception of comparative few. the applicants made their money in the American shipyards and munitions' plants. Virtually none of them saw service In either the navy or the army. Boy Escapes from Home for Friendless; Retaken Using a part of the bed springs to force the lock on his room, Howard Mullen, a thirteen-year-old Cambridge City lad, escaped from the Home for the Friendless Saturday evening, after he had been sentenced to the Boys' Reform school at Plalnfield by Judge Bond. He was found at the lnterurban station later in the evening and returned to the home. Mullen was sentenced to the school as a result of his confession to several robberies In Cambridge City. His companion, who Is only nine years old, was released by the Judge. School Book Companies Can Not Raise Their Prices, Is Ruling (By Associated Press) INDIANAPOLIS, July 21. Intimations that book publishing companies have or may attempt to raise prices on supplemental books in the schools ha3 caused L. H. Hines, state superintendent of public instruction, to take up the question of the legality of an increase with Ele Stansbury, attorney general. After consulting the state's legal department Mr. Hines says he feels assured that companies have no authority under the law to raise the price of supplemental book for five years from 1918. The companies have filed their schedule of prices and bonds to guarantee the prices it is said. Mr. Hines plans to call atten tion of school authorities to the prices named in tne schedule. Some companies have sent new and higher cost lists to the state superintendent's office, but these have been rejected. Other companies it has been said, 6imply billed books ordered at the higher prices. At the attorney general office it was said when proper information is presented of price boosting prosecutions will be started. 56 State High Schools Are on Six-Year Plan (By Associated Press) INDIANAPOLIS. July 21 Fifty-six of the rural high schools of the state are organized on the six year plan, according to information made public hereThere are 850 high schools in the state. The legislature at its 1919 session made provision for the extension of high school work to a six years course, but the work is not new in the state, as in some schools it has been carried on for several years. The first six year school was tried out in Tippicanoe county. Every township high school in Huntington county now is working under the six year plan. An advantage of the plan to the rural high school has been the elimination of small district schools where teaching in advanced subjects cannot be done profitably, advocates of the longer course say.

Franchise League News The eyes of the women of the country will be turned chiefly to the west for the remainder of the summer and the early autumn, for It is there that most of the special legislative sessions are called to ratify the Federal Suffrage amendment. Wyoming, Colorado, South Dakota, Utah and Arizona will all have sessions during the next three months, and it is conceded that all will ratify. In the east the legislature of Maine is called for October and will ratify. Governor Goodrich has made no further announcement of the date of Indiana's special session beyond the original one, that it will be in August or early in September.

Since the Willard-Dempsey fracas at Toledo, on July 4, many young Americans have called at stores where boxing gloves and other paraphernalia needed for the prize ring are sold, and asked for prices. Twelve dollars for leather boxing gloves, however, has caused their hopes to go a glimmering, and the youthful aspirants have left with the Idea that "father was right, I might as well be a preacher." Leather boxing gloves, of any quail, ty, range in price from $10 up, and the only kind of gloves that are now offered within reach of the small boy's spending money, are made entirely of cloth.

Receipts at Glen Miller. The receipts of all classes of live stock at the Glen Miller yards last week were under normal because of market conditions and the unsettled feeling at all stock yard centers. With reference to this fact Mr. Shorley says "Our receipts of hogs were light, due to a break of $1 per 100 in the market last week which was attributed to the strike in New York and at other export points, where thousands of head of cattle are loaded in vessels, which the strikers have tied up for days. The strike at the Chicago yards was also a factor, because of the fear that it might spread to the larger plants. On top of this Is the claim of the larger packers that they hare had to take in and market thousands of pounds of government meats, which curtailed their regular purchases. "Good hogs brought $21 on our Saturday market," said Rome Bhurley. "against $22 on Saturday a week ago. The calf market was demoralised last week, heavy and thin calves were $5 to $6 per 10C- lower. Good to choice veal sold at $15 on Saturday, a drop of $3 for the week. Lambs and sheep were very dull and averaged $1 lower. Good lambs sold at $12 and sheep at $5 to $6. Cattle waa steady on corn' fed but lower prices ruled on gg&uti cattle." . ...
