MARKETS

GRAIN PRICES CHICAGO, Aug. 28. Corn market supported by bullish wheat talk based on the small 2 million visible, and little cjiance of an increase for some time. Outsiders are not buying corn or wheat and the next good corn bulge may start from $1.10 for December if we get the promised increase in receipts. World trade news is decidedly uneasy. English trade trend is lower. If the wheat market decreases next week corn should also be lower. The farmers in Kansas will have to sell their wheat and meet outstanding notes. We do not share the idea of a tight oats situation late in September, due to liberal sales to the east. RANGE OF FUTURES (Markets by E. W. Wagner & Co., 212 Union Bank Building) CHICAGO. Aug. 28.

T Dorm Capacity Will Be Increased Plans for increasing the capacity of the "Y" dormitory were announced by Julian L. SmUh, general secretary, at a get-together meeting ct the men at supper Friday evening. Smith said that as the dormitory bad been provided to take care of young men away from home, who drew only moderate salaries, that a greater num ber of men would be accommodated by adding another bed in every room ! tbat was large enough to care for two. No man would be allowed to rent a single room if it is large enough to care for two men. Every man present rose and gave his name, where he worked, and the state from which he came. The results showed that the "Y" is a cosmopolitan home, for the men came from nine different states, and two foreign countries. Arthur L. Smith, of the Second National bank, spoke on the value of the association. He said that there are 30,000 members of the Y. M. C.

BEYOND HOPE (Continued from Page One Jam it down their throats at the point of bayonets borne by United States marines. "Nor will I misuse the power of the executive to cver with a veil of serecy repeated acts of unwarranted Interference in domestic affairs of the republics of the western hemisphere Touches on Mexico. "On the other hand I will not or shall not, as you prefer, submit to any wrong against any American citizen with respect to either his life or his property by any government. "7is statement is made in all solemnity, with enmity for none and friendship for all. If it particularly applies to Mexico, the application has been directed by the robbery and murder of hundreds of our own people in that unhappy country. "This admonition is not directed exclusively toward our next door neighbor to whom we would gladly hold forth a helping hand. It is intended for a plain notice to every government on the face of the earth that the entire resources of this nation are pledged to maintain the sacredness of American lives and the just protestation of American properties. Line is Perfectly Plain. "The line of demarcation between our attitude and that of our political opponents is - perfectly plain. The president has made his position' clear "by his acts no less than by his words. He still holds Article 10 to bethe heart of the covenant, "So does the Democratic platform; so does the Democratic nominee. - To assume that the nominee would ac cept the reservations rejected by the president and denounced by the party platform is to impugn his integrity. "For myself, I do not question for a moment the truth of what the Democratic nominee says on this subject. He has flatly said he is 'in favor of going in' on the basis announced by the president. I am not. That is the whole difference between us, but it is a most vital one, because it involves the disparity between a world court of justice supplemented by a world association for conference on the one hand, and the council of the league on the other. Defines the Difference. "The one is a judicial tribunal to be governed by fixed and definite principles of law, administered without passion or prejudice. The other is an association of diplomats and politicians whose determinations are sure to be influenced by considerations of expediency and national selfishness. "Listen to the wise and far-seeing former British ambassador who was not permitted to present his credentials to our executive. " 'As long, said Viscount Grey, hardly a month ago, 'as long as the richest, most powerful, the greatest, both for population and territory, of the civilized countries of the world stands outside the league, the league will be unable to fulfill its destiny. To put it in quite plain terms the Americans must be told that if they will only join the league they can practically name their own terms'. "Undoubtedly that is the fact. I ask: Is there any good reason why we should not avail ourselves of this privilege? I do not mean in any arrogant or domineering or patronizing. selfish way but simply as a matter of fairness and right to our own people. Wants America Trusted "Viscount Grey continues: 'The Americans should be entrusted with the task of drafting a reconstruction scheme. Then he suggests further that 'a committee of the senate could draw up suggestions lor the recon struction of the league." "Frankly, I value that suggestion very highly. It comprehends substan tially what I would propose to do if elected president. My chief aspiration, my countrymen, if clothed with power, will be to regain that lost leadership not for myself, not even for my party, though honoring and trusting it as I do, but for my country."

Pickett Describes Exciting

Mr. Pickett went to London to attend the All Friends World conference. In part he writes: "Archbishop Mannix was the center of the scene at our departure. He, as a good Irish priest, was sent some years ago to become archbishop of Australia. "Though the Roman Catholics are a very small minority of the Australian population, the archbishop holds a place of prominence in the dominion because he championed the opposition to conscription. Won III Favor of England "For this he won the 111 favor of the imperial government. It was also an ill omen in their eyes that he is a Roman catholic. And he proposed to sail on the Baltic. The English members of the crew said they would strike if he went; the Irish said they would strike if he was prevented. "About a half hour before sailing time a caravan of taxis drove on to the pier and a galaxy of Catholic dignitaries stepped out, headed by the archbishop. They were hoisted promptly on deck amid the cheers of thousands of their compatriots who bad gathered to add their bit of zeal to the already infuriated Irish populace. "Banners, a combination of the Irish I green and the stars and stripes, were noatea. Placards containing such phrases as 'I make up my mind what is right and then I hedtre Lloyd George,' and 'I make up my mind what is right and then I do it Mannix,' were carried by his supporters. "It was revealed that Lloyd George had cabled that Mannix would not be permitted to land at Queenstown. But embark he did; the strike disappeared and, standing on the topmost deck waving his high silk hat, stood Mannix." Indiana Brevities Vincennes Bishop H. H.

Junior High Students To Register, Tuesday, Sept. 1 All students will register at eight a. m. Tuesday morning, Sept. 7. Students already in the school and those regularly promoted from the ward schools need not come until that time. However, former students who are uncertain as to their standing or wish to make any changes, should come to the school office some day next week for consultation. Mr. Heironimus will be in the office all week for that purpose. . , Students coming to the school from other than the ward Bchools of Richmond should also come next week for classification as there will be little time for work of this kind on the opening day. Such students should bring bring with them some evidence of their school standing report cards, letters from schools last attended, etc. By complying with these requests new students will be much more likely to secure satisfactory arrangements for their work and will at the same time greatly facilitate the work of the school. Students appearing for the first time at the opening of school on Sept. 7 will necessarily be rather summarily placed in the most convenient class. PROFESSOR STARVES IN RUSSIA LONDON. Aug. 27.
