GRAIN PRICES CHICCAGO. June 29. Grain mar kets in a realizing mood. Weather over 60 per cent of the belt favorable. Good rains over the northwest, Iowa and parts of Illinois. Snow reports some wheat poor across northern Missouri. One-half of the belt may continue warm. Oats kicks are from repeat sections with Springfield, 111., the bull leader. December corn at near $1.60 looks too high. Corn crop news mainly good, only complaint concerns crop being seven to fourteen days late and corn crop is usually late anyway. On dips we advise buying September oats. Industries are probably absorbing cash corn against possible drop in receipts around July 6th. N CHICAGO GRAIN RANGE Furnished by E. W.

ARGUE ON CHARGES AGAINSTCOAL MEN SCRANTON, Pa., June 29. Arguments in the admission in evidence of charges of profiteering and monopolistic control, made against the hard coal operators were heard today by the anthracite mine commission named by President Wilson to adjust the differences between the operator and the mine workers. The charges are contained in a brief submitted yesterday by W. Jett Lauck, consulting economist of the United Mine Workers of America, only a part of which, however, was read into the records. Objection was made by representatives of the operators to the presentation of evidence tending to show profiteering and this part of the brief was not read, the commission announcing it would pass upon the operator's objection tomorrow.

Crawford, crossing watchman at the C. and O. railroad east of Doran Bridge on North D street, disputes a statement of police that he was negligent in duty Sunday morning when a city fire truck was nearly struck. Crawford says tfeat when he heard the fire bells ring, he took a red flag and went north on the railroad tracks to flag the expected C. and O. excursion train. While he was doing this, the fire chief's auto and one fire truck passed. Crawford did not hear or see any other fire truck and was walking back to the crossing to stop automobiles from crossing the track. The C. and O. passenger train rounded the bend at this time, and it was impossible, Crawford says, to stop it before it reached the crossing. He took his "Stop" sign to automo biles when the second fire truck ap peared. A passerby not noticing the watchman at his station, jumped out in front of the truck and frantically signalled it to stop. Crawford says he was also signalling it to stop, but as the train went by as the truck was sliding to a stop, the policeman probably did not see him. Child Dies After Eating Many Cathartic Tablets Toddling to a drawer where the family kept a quantity of cathartic tablets, little James Ligon, five-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. Samuel Ligon, living about one-quarter of a mile from Richmond, on the Middleboro pike, ate the medicine Monday morning .He died at the Reid hospital early Tuesday. The little fellow made his way to the drawer where the family kept the tablets. Almost immediately the child's mother became aware of the fact and at once endeavored to obtain a doctor. It was not until two hours j later that a physician was finally secured. The suffering child was taken to the hospital where he died at 2 a. m. Tuesday. The parents and one sister, Mrs. Lamonta Null, survive. Funeral services will be conduccted from the home, Thursday at 10 a. m. Mrs. A. H. Backus will officiate. Burial will be in Earlham. Friends may call at any time. No Let-up In Congested Freight, Say Officials T. A. Greenstreet, C. and O. freight agent in Richmond, said Tuesday that; freight conditions on the C. and O. ; are worse in Richmond than ever be- j fore experienced here. I The embargo to all points in the' New England district has caused the local office to refuse freight to the affected territory. Greenstreet says, however, that if he was able to supply the cars to manufacturers car load lots could be sent through. Officials of the Pennsy say the car shortage on their railroad is tighten-! ing up. The Pennsy is experiencing the same difficulty as the C. and O. in getting cars into the New England district. The Atlantic seaboard is slightly better. Interchurch Drive Loses Out (Bv Asporiatf-d Press) i N-EW YORK, June 29.

Consider the Bean
E. E. RICE, Garden Supervisor Beans are no longer a cheap food product, being light In weight and very nourishing they make a profitable food for shipping Ion distances. A few years ago the acreage in beans in this country was very small. Last year about 950,000 acres were planted to bean 8. The navy bean is planted late in the spring after the ground gets warm. It is easily grown and under favorable condition an average yield of from 10 to 15 bushels an acre can be expected in this state. The navy or pea bean, is the leading variety. It is also the most prolific, producing variety for our conditions! A sandy loam soil is best for growin? these beans. In many places the soil may be two fertile, causing a heavy growth of vine, rew moesoms and very little seed. Bottom land that is ri?h in hummus is not adapted to bean growing. Beans also require good air and perfect drainage. Newly turned soil may be planted to beans with good results. Impoverished land is better than rich land. Beans are an easy crop for boys to grow, and our Boy Scouts and high school students have planted many acres to beans out south near Morgan Park. Harrowing Is Necessary The land should be prepared early to conserve the moisture for summer. Harrow the seed bed several times if necessary to keep down the weeds and to work up a fine, well pulverized seed bed. From eighteen to twenty quarts of pea beans are required to plant an acre where one has a large organization of boys to do the planting and cultivating. Planting may be done much closer and a much greater yield to the acre will result. There is still time for planting navy beans. Ordinarily June 1 is the best time, but our very late spring makes it possible to plant at this time. Beans must be planted with care; not too shallow nor too deep. Plant them about one and one-half inches deep. A hand drill should be used, and ordinarily plant the rows about 31 inches apart for horse cultivating, with the seed two inches apart in the rows. For hand cultivation plant the rows 18 inches apart. Level cultivating is best. Beans are shallow rooted plants so be careful not to cultivate too deep. Do not cultivate beans while the leaves and vines are wet; it will start the fungus diseases. Harvest the crop as soon as the pods are fully developed. Main Street Bridge Man Gets $448 ,000 Job Isaac Smith, builder of the Main street bridge, has been awarded a contract for the construction of a concrete span, similar in design to the Richmond job, across the Scioto river at Columbus, Ohio, on a bid of $448,000. The span is 833 feet long, but not as wide and high as the Main street bridge, and will require 1.500 less yards of material. Bridge construction j in excess of $2,000,000 and exclusive , of the Smith contract, is underway in Columbus. The Main street bridge will not be opened for traffic for two or three weeks.

WHITE HOUSE (Continued From Page One.) swung up in graceful folds to disclose the president's likeness and send the convention into a frenzy of cheering. The burst of feeling did not die with adjournment. Long after there was still a hint of it in the voices of the delegates. Same Movement Felt. The same subsiding undercurrents ran through the deliberations of the committees. It was there with the collapse of the move to prevent the election of Senator Glass, a movement that had the backing of Wm. J. Bryan. Senator Robinson's selection for permanent chairman was more of a foregone conclusion. No opposing candidate had been selected. The administrate forces now have a strong grip on the machinery which will write the confession of faith for the party's 1920 campaign. There will be battles in committee over many planks; but there was less prospect today than at any time since the convention leaders began to assemble, in the opinion of most political observers schooled in the ways of conventions of an open fight on the floor. Administration leaders appeared confident that differences could be ironed out in committee. Bryan's Plank Is Out Mr. Bryan has put forward the league of nations plank on which he vould have the convention stand. It declares for such reservations as are necessary to secure ratification and is in sharp conflict with the position taken before the convention yesterday by National Chairman Homer S. Cummings in his keynote speech. Mr. Cummings lashed at the attitude of Republican senators in the treaty fight, charging that they had sought nullification, not reservations. He declared that no reservation not aimed, at the life of the covenant would have been rejected by the administration and administration forces in the convention are expected to cling to that line. Whether Mr. Bryan, like a good trader, had asked more than he expected to get and is willing to take less is not clear. The administration leaders stimulated by the victories of yesterday reiterated their confidence that no minority report on the treaty plank could carry. Ireland Is Mentioned Other planks may cause committee discord, but there was a word of cheer for Irish sympathizers in Mr. Cummings' speech. The only Issue he did not deal with directly in his keynote address, was that over a party's statement on prohibition enforcement. In that issue may be wrapped up the fate of some aspirants for the presidential nomination. The battle has come to the surface in a caucus of the New York delegation, which I voted witohut roll call to urge modification of the enforcement law. The session left behind it echoes of "gag-rule" charges and assertions that

" V Events bo far have shown no marked reaction overnight on discussion on; nomination booms. There seemed to be a general feeling that prospect of Mr. McAdoo's selection had increased, but there was no definite development upon which it could be based by those who took this view. With a member of the president's cabinet in the race in the person of Attorney General Palmer and a former cabinet member, Mr. McAdoo being urged just as vigorously, no candidate has yet been formally characteriied as the choice of the president. Administration forces, machine like in their unanimity of action on other matters, are at odds on candidates, each group supporting its own man. The reflex of their joint victories is therefore not easy to trace in the nomination fight. HELPED MAX AND WIFE Walter Farraud. 1093 Spring-field Ave.. IrvinKton. N.
