Wil son, member of the Chicago board of trade. New York stock exchange and San Francisco bond and stock exchange, 212 West Fifth street, Los Angeles. CHICAGO, Sept. I.—Market was a rather ragged and mostly a heavy ulTair In wheat today, differences oontlnulng to widen, tlie September discount the largest now of any time on the crop. Deliveries were heavy at 2.580.000 buihels and went to scattered com mission concerns. The latter resold more or less as September weakened whenever ele vator support was withdrawn. Russia and Roumanla are reported by Antwerp cables as underselling America, and the drought In Argentina appears to have been broken by good rains. Export bids reported below pos sible export limits. Nevertheless there were claims of export of 72,000 bushels, Manitoba wheat by Duluth exporters. Cash demand here slim and confined to elevators. Fall plowing far advanced In the winter wheat country, threshing far advanoed and fall plowing begun In the Canadian northwest. The market continues to hinge on the foreign sit uation and the continent appears to buy on every weak spot They turned Liverpool from % lower to VI higher today by buying car goes of Australian wheat off coast. The corn market was quite irregular but changes within narrow limits. Trade In Sep tember limited and that month covered a wider range. Trade Is still a little nervous over the possibility of frost damage later, but buyers were disappointed because of failure of frost to show over night. Fair reins cov ered most of the belt last night or predicted for tonight or tomorrow. This will help nil the oorn but Is a menace In case frost shows up early, as the crop is late. Country sold a little more freely. Oats were a little firmer on smaller deliv eries than expected and evidences of heavy purchases by eastern dealers who are hold- Ing In cheap storage and hedge the grain here mainly for December and May. Erroneous re ports that there were sales for export grew out of the fact that eastern exporters were among the concerns who bought the cash oats. Provisions were mainly lower, nearby lard the weakest. Foreign concerns sold tho lard. European lard stocks decreased moderately last month against an Increase a year ago. The stock there Is now 37,500 less than a year ago In store and afloat. MARKET RANGES WHIBAT— Open. High. Low. Close.

SPARK OF MOTORCYCLE IGNITES GIRL'S SKIRT WASHINGTON, Sept. I.—Horribly burned about the legs and body, pretty 16-year-old Alice Woodson is lying at the point of death in c. hospital as the result of her clothing having caught fire while she was riding with her fiance on a motorcycle. Louis Knight, to whom Miss Wood son was engaged to be married next fall, is an enthusiastic motorcyclist. He has affixed a temporary cradle seat to the rear of his machine. In this Miss Woodson was accustomed to ride. They had been touring about the Po tomac parkway and the Mall, and were returning to Miss Vv'oodson's home at a high rate of speed when a spark from the carbureter caught her under skirt, which ignited in a flame. The rapidity of the motor fanned the spark Into flames before Knight could stop it. Miss Woodson screamed with pain and fright. Knight brought the cycle to a standstill and boat out the blaz ing garments with his bare hands. . A policeman ran to the assistance of the excited couple and insisted that Miss Woodaon be conveyed to the hos pital at once. The doctors say that sho has a chancq for. recovery. : A Wedding A- | present. What would be /r more appropriate than a savings Jf , ,m( .' Nothing, could be more « I* practical for any newly wed.

MTI& FIFTH » JPig/^g JfJl Jit NEW LONDON SUBWAY WILL COST $5,000,000 PER MILE Central Railway to Connect with the Two-Penny Tube LONDON, Sept. I.—A quarter of a mile of "tube" railway Is about to be constructed from the bank of Liv erpool street station, at a cost of $1, --250,000 or $5,000,000 a mile. It is to be ready In eighteen months. The new line will be an extension of the Central London railway, or "two penny tube," and will bring the Great Eastern Kailway terminus, with ita quarter of a million passengers a day, and Broad street station also, into direct touch with the whole tube rail way system of London. It is hoped to substitute movlnr stairways for the lifts at the Liverpool street end of the tube. This would provide continuous descending and as cending slides, on which passengers would merely have to stand in order to be taken up or down. The principle of moving stalrwaya has been approved, and It is hoped to overcome one or two difficulties In detail which are at present under con« slderatlon. MUST AWAIT UNTYING OF RED TAPE BEFORE FLIGHT Army Aviator Asks Permission to Sail Beyond Post SAN ANTONIO, Sept. I.—ln lha war department everything moves with micrometric precision, at least so it would seem. When some time ;i~<> Lieut. B. D. Foulois, who manages the aero squad at Fort Sam Houston, wanted to put wheels on his Wright flyer, the permission of the. war de partment was necessary. For a long time it seemed as if the communica tion had gone astray, but finally action was secured and the wheels were put on the machine. Now, the lieutenant would make aerial excursions beyond the confined of the post, and once more permission is necessary. Th« itrmy airman has applied for this, but Is still waiting. In the meantime the kit.- Is getting dally exercl.se in low flights, high flights, quick start* and landing and other maneuvers. 7
