GKAtft PRICES (Markets by Lamson Bros & Co, 212 Union Kauonal Baj Building) CHICAGO, Nov. 29 All grains closed higher despite considerable realizing over the Thanksgiving day holiday. Bullish world conditions were farther intensified by reports from Argentine that rain and hail had niterfered with harvest and also damaged the new wheat crop, which was turning out poorer than expected in some of the providences. Frosts in October, it was' said, had reduced the quality. Advices from Russia Indicated a serious shortage of grain in the regions affected last year by the famine, the deficit in the Volga dis trict and the Ukraine region reaching a total of approximately 56 million bushels. The feeding demand for corn showed no abatement and the situation In the southwest was said to be so serious that railroad rates on corn shipments to that region had been reduced 50 per cent. Interests were attracted to oats on account of their relative cheapness to the other grains. RANGE OF FUTURES (Markets by Lamson Bros. & Co, 212 Union National Bank Building) CHICAGO. Nov. 29.

WAsTE. 71 TIME. POSSES ON TRACK OF FOURTH BANDIT Hi OHIO SHOOTING (By United Press) COLUMBUS, Ohio, Nov. 29. One bandit is dead, one is near death from a self inflicted would, another is in jail and a fourth is still at large following Ohio's most thrilling man hunt. The bandit quartet which entered Columbus in a stolen auto yesterday killed Patrolman Koehler and wound ed Corporal Friddle, was the object of the hunt which started soon after the Columbus shooting and resulted in the capture of two of the party near Lilly Chanel as darkness fell last night Posses, armed with sawed off shotguns scoured the wooded districts of Madison county all night and at dawn today had been unsuccessful in captur ing the fourth fugitive. The member of the quartet who was killed in the street fighting with offt ecrs here and whose body was found in the abandoned bandit car near West Jefferson several hours later, has not yet been identified. Gives 'Self Up Loomie C. Cummins, 26, Louisville, Ky.. gave himself up to a posse of Col umbus Dolice after they had chased him several miles on a handcar, and James Martin, alias "SlinT'Brady, 26, who said he had no home, fired bullet through his temple as he was about to be captured in a fence cor ner near Lilly Chapel. "Go ahead and kill me," Martin told the officers. "I'm no good and I want to die." Then as "he fired one shot in to his head police struck the revolver from his hand and rushed him to a Columbus hospital. Cummins, who pleaded not guilty tc a first degree murder charge in midnight court declared the unidentified bandit was the one who killed Officer Koehler and wounded Corporal Friddle Additional posses of citizens and officers were formed in Madison county today to hunt down the escaping member of the gang who is thought to be hiding in the dense woods. Planned Bank Robbery. Cummins, who is held to the grand jury on the murder, told police the gang was on its way to Aurora, Ind., to hold up a bank when Columbus police interferred. . The bandit still at large goes by the name of Ed Lewis, Cummins said. "I think he is wanted in Dayton for some job or other because he has always wanted to skip Dayton in our various meanderings." Cummins told police the gang was ahout to holdup a restaurant when they were accosted by Columbus officers here yesterday morning. "I know we are in for it," he said. "I was with the gang and by law am just as guilty as the rest but I didn't do anything." Martin is expected to recover from his self-inflicted wound but will lose the sight of his right eye. As soon as he is able he will be arraigned on a charge of first degree murder of Pa trolman Koehler. OIL FIELD WORKERS, VIGALANTES ENGAGE IN BATTLE, REPORT (By Associated Press) ELDORADO, Ark., Nov. 29. Details were lacking today of a clash reported to have taken place between more than 200 vigilantes from Eldorado and surrounding towns and a band of 25 or more oil field workers after the self-appointed law enforcers went to the Smackover oil field, about 12 miles north of here, with the avowed purpose of cleaning out the disorderly element in a number of small settle ments. - ' Meagre reports received here before telephone communication was inter rupted was that the vigilantes were fighting with the workers, who had objected to the invasion by the citi zen's posses. The sheriff of Ouachita county and a posse was enroute to the scene of the trouble, it was said. The reported fight is believed to be an outcome of the effort made in the last few days to rid the oil fields of gamblers and other undesirable persons, who are alleged to have flocked to that section since the discovery of oil. Two murders have taken place in the Smackover field within the last week and the lawless element, it has been reported to the authorities, was getting beyond control. After the slaying Sunday of an oil field worker near Smackover a citizen's possee visited the scene, ordered the inmates of the resort in which the man was shot to leave, and then burned the building. Other objectionable resorts were visited and the proprietors ordered to leave within 24 hours, or to take the consequences. A number of the undesirables were flogged by the posse, it was reported. On Monday more than 200 whiterobed men silently drove through the Smackover section In automobile bearing placards warning all gambler, and others of the lawless element to be out of the field within 24 hours.

It cam from the direction of the door, the sin gle exit from the room. The teacher ran to the door, opened it, and a burst o& smoke drove her backi The hall way was in flames and the stairs had crumpled. Inside were 40 children.. The teach er locked the door, calmly walked to the window and told the children to line up. The ground was about 20 feet below. To drop meant almos certain injury, but to s tay meant death to them all. The teacher began lowering the children, but the flames entered the room and licked rapidly toward the window. - Three children remained ic the line. The flames engulfed them. Mrs. Grant saying later she jumped into the fire to save them. The teacher's clothing caught fire and she jumped from the. window. Only Five Unhurt. Doctors said she received burns, a fractured limb and internal injuries. Only five of the children dropped by Mrs. Grant escaped injuries. A funeral procession passing the school was halted and men and wom en of the party rushed into the building and saved many of the children in the room below Mrs. Grant s. Many, however received minor burns before aid came. An over-heated stove is believed to have caused the fire. The school house was a two-story frame building situated in a prosper ous farming section. Authorities said the building had been condemned more than a year ago and funds had been provided for a new fireproof building, erection of which was delayed because of a dissention among residents' as to its location.

CANADA INCREASES WHEAT EXPORTATION 22,000,000 BUSHELS (By Associated Press) .OTTAWA, Ont. Nov. 29. Canada exported 158,549,757 bushels of wheat valued at $196,168,771 to th United States, tlie United Kingdom and other countries in the year, Aug. 31, according to a report compiled by the Dominion bureau of statistics. This was an increase of more than 22,000,000 bushels over, the Bhipm'ent of the pre vious year, the report stated. Shipments, of flour in this period totaled 7,878.589 bushels, valued at $50,634,601, compared with 6,886,560 bushels in the previous twelve months. While exports of both wheat and flour were much greater in quantity this year the value showed a considerable drop due to the slump in price whicn occurred throughout the world last spring, according to the report U. s. Supply Less. An interesting feature of the report Is the fact that exports of wheat to the United States showed a decided de crease this year, due mainly, It was said, to the Fordney tariff recently enacted.
