B g4 ‘PROFESSOR' WILSON SEES WHAT “AIN'T” George Ade Says President is Nice Man, with Lot of Pretty Adiectives. HIS CABINET IS A HANDICAP * AN ADE ESTIMATE OF WILSQN N 1 liked my traveling companions (the progressives) and the scenery, but a man cannot continue on a journey which offers no terminus. He (Mr. Wilson) was accus- tomed for years to be dogmatic and oracular before a lot of col- fege boys who couldn’t talk back. He finally came to believe that whenever he said a thing, it was so. They say he has vision. He has so much vision he sees things that ain't. 3 He is a perfectly nice man who believes he can solve problems by talking about them. He did not speak on the pre- paredness issue until democratic oliticians had worn a path to the hite House telling’ him what he had better say if he wanted to be re-elected. When a man has just one round of ammunition to shot he cai ford to stand off on a_hillside and shoot into the air. Progres- sives must recognize the fact-that this year there are only two con- knqu parties and every voter- hust ¢éither make a quick choice or tetire to the deep woods.

He has put small caliber men in big caliber jobs. Two of his appointments have been national ca- Jamities. The men in Mr. Hughes’ cabinet - will command respect at home and abroad. “Finally, I am back in the republi- can camp and working for republican success this year because I believe the republican party, since the recent housecleaning and readjustment of in- ternal control, is much better quali- fied than the democratic party to take charge of governmental affairs and direct them sanely and safely. I have not surrendered any former beliefs, and I am reasonably sure that the world is going to get better every year.instead of relapsing to the bow- WOWS. “When a man has just one round of ammunition to shoot he can’t afford to stand off on a hillside and shoot into the air. Progressives must rec- ognize the fact that this year there are only two conteriding parties and every voter must either make a quick choice or retire to the deep woods. Fhis is no time for grieving over what mght have been. The thing for ev- ery progressive to do is to look pleased and vote for Hughes.” Venizelos Will Not Make Any Overtures To King Constantine London, Oct. 14.—Former Premier Venizelos of Greece, who is now at the head of the provisional govern- ment set up in Athens in opposi- tion to the policy of King Constantine in regard t&~the war, i1s quoted by Reuters’ Saloniki correspondent to the effect .that no overtures have been made to the king beyond an appeal to him to abandon the path in which he has persisted. Nor does the provisional govern- ment contemplate any further steps in_that direction,” the former pre- mier added. “I have no 'hope that the king will change his conduct of affairs, “His majesty had a splendid op- portunity to repudiate his engage- ments with Germany when the Ger- mans allowed the Bulgarians to vio- late their solemn undertaking that they would not enter Seres, g(avala or Drama; but that opportunity was allowed to escsape, because, forsooth, Constantine was convinced German legions "eventually would come to his assistance and rescue him from the hands of the entente powers.” M. Venizelos is quoted as saying further that he counts on the sym- pathy and support of liberal coun- tries, especially England and France, in the struggle between constitutional liberties and a return to a feudal sys- tem, “which is what_ the Frcscnt is- sue in Greece amounts to. Villa Threatens to Burn Their Families Unless Tll_ez Join Him Chihuahua City, Mexico, Oct, 14.— Carranza forces in command of Gen- eral Arrieta of the Jimenez, Chihua- hua, garrison engaged a bandit force at El Carmen, Los Sorianosyand San Andres ranches, southwest of Jime- nez, killing a_number of the bandits, taking several prisoners and captur- ing saddled horses and gmmunition, a report made by General Arrieta to General Jacinto B. Trevino states. The command of General Arrieta has cleared the Rio Florida district, south- west of Jimenez, of bandits, “Villa is forcing men to join his command under threat of burning their families unless they comply with his demand, a document which has been received at . General Trevino's headquarters and signea by Villa shows. This document refers to Reyes Estrada and reads: “T concede a traveling pass to Reyes Estrada with the object of his joi our forces and with the un- ding that, if he does not ful- fill his promise within ten days, he will be considered as an enemy and will expose his family to be burned.” General Trevino is making every preparation for another attack from the Villa forces, The hills near the city are being eritrenched and canfion placed on the higher points. Outposts are sent out each night to prevent a_surprise attack. An infantry di- vision is now enroute from Parras, Coahuila, under command of Jose Santos. . “Behind the Lines” is .

OMAHA BUILDINGS DOUBLE FOR HONTH While New York_Shows a Fall- ing Off, Inland Cities Reg- ister Good Gains. THIRTY-SEVEN INOREASE \ Evidence that the enhanced costs of construction, due to the high prices of all kinds of materials, rising wages and the scarcity of labor, is having considerable effect in many sections, is provided by the building statistics for September, reports received by Dun’s Review from eighty-two of the princi- pal cities in the United States’show- ing that permits taken out during that month called for an expenditure of only $53,204,198. This is a decrease, as compared with the same month last year, of 2.9 per cent, and is not only the smallest total for any month since February, but is the only month this year that does not show substantial improvement over the corresponding period in 1915, : ) Pronounced. contraction appears in the returns from New York City, per- mits granted at that center amount- ing to only $6,637,176, a falling off from last year of no less than 30.1 per cent. All boroughs contribute more or less to the indifferent exhibit, Man- hattan reporting a loss of approxi- mately $1,468,000; the Bronx, $552,- 000; Brooklyn, $486,000; Queens, $253,- 000, and Richmond, $119,000, as com- ared with 1915, The cities outside of chw York as a whole, make a much more favorable comparison, the ag- gregate of the eighty-one centers be- ing $46,567,022, a gain over the same month a year ago of 2.8 per cent. There are forty-four, cities which re- port smaller totals than in 1915, the most noticeable being Atlanta, witha decrease of $434,000; Cincinnati, $417,- 000; Indianapolis, $387,000; Louisville, $248,000; New Haven, $1,155,000; Phil- adelphia, $1,430,000; Pittsburgh, $831,- 000, and St. Paul, $740,000. On the other hand, these losses are more than offset by the improvement shown at the thirty-seven centers making gains, among them Buffalo, $296,000; Cleveland, $357,000; Dallas, $490,000 Dayton, $411,000; Detroit, $2,173,000; Harrisburg, $344,000; Minneapolis, $871,000; Nashville, $320,000; Omaha, $356,000; Portland, Ore., $1,019,000, Birmingham, Bridgeport, C: Buffalo, N.

Digpatches from Argentina said the weather was clear and hot and that as a result of douth the estimates of yleld were being reduced dally. The weekly forecast of shipments to Liverpool indicate that sup- plies were not adequato to meet require- ments, Opening prices, which ranged from 4 decline to %c advance, with December $L6TX @L68% and May at $L58@L.65%, were followed by some downturns, but then a moderate general advance.

Chicago reported a dime decline on opening rounds, but in no case was the market here more than a nickel lower, while here and there s looked almost steady. Half of the offerings did not show up until mid-forenoon, and packers, who had cleaned up the eerly arrivals before 9 o'clock, pre- dicted that when the later trains came in it would be a 10c lowér market. They falled to break the market any further, however, late trade being just about like early, The general market was barely bc lower. Shippers called their hogs wround a nickel lower, thelr buy being smaller than yester- day. There were no real choice hogs hers, the shipper top being $9.60, while packers gave $9.65 for pretty good hogs that did not arrive (i1l late. Bulk of the offerings moved at a goread of $9.40@9.50. ‘The net advarce In prices this week amounts to about 30c, but \§iile the market is 66c above the low timé, It is still $1.25 lower than at the high spot the middle of September. Up to yesterday there had been a continuous advance all week, there having :ucn no break In ten days up to this morn- ng. _Representative sales: o. Av. Sh. Pr. No. Av. 8h.

Of the four loads which were on offer, a packer who had a shipping order took three curs of fat lambs sharply hig paying $10.15, as agalnst yester- day's nominal top of $10.00 The fat lamb trade after jumping up a Guarter on the opening days of the woek just about held its own through the firat half of the week and then on Thursday and_Friday dmnpefl/-lmolt back to last weel's levels. As was the case with fat lambs, muttons showed some upturn on the opening days of the week, but by Friday had dropped back te where they were on i close. Best of the fat ewes are $6.76@6.90. Yearlings are bringing as high as $8.00, while wethers are quotable up to $7.60@17.75. Not enough of either yeariings or aged wethers are coming to really make a market. In the feeder division It was another chop- py affair. Demand the first half of the week was very good and on lambs the mar- ket moved up 16@25c, while ewes, which are at best very uneven, upturns of 25@b0c were noted.

SHOWS RESTRAINT w York, Oct. 14—An undercurrent of caution prevalled in today's stock market operations. This was particularly true of the leaders, United States Steel showing de- cided restraint with allled Industriale, Bethlehem Steel yielding 8 points, with 1 to 3 points for Republic Iron and Steel, | Colorado Fuel, Industrial Alcohol, New York Alr Brake and some of the leading motors. This was partly coulterbalanced by the strength of shipping stocks. Ralls were strong at the outset, but sagged in the Iast hour. Total sales of stocks amounted to 455,000 shares. The usual weekly budget of general news ineluded the. reviews of the mercantile agencies, which reported a continuance of extraordinary activity and a broadening de- mand for the coming year. Further ad- vices from steel centers indicated more price advances before the end of the ‘month. Coppers failed to respond to reports of ndditional forelgn orders for delivery early In 1917, at not less than 28 cents a pound. Representatives of the big producing com- panies could not confirm the reports. An actual cash loss of about $20.000,000 was the most noteworthy feature of the okly bank statement, loans. however, con- ~ostsg hv £17.000.000 and reserves by $18,- 1 640,000, reducing the excess reserves to about I $49,000,000, the smallest total since the mid-year. Bonds also developed an easler trend on light demand; total sales, par value, $2,260,- 000. United States and Panama Bonds ad- vanced 1 to % of 1 per cent on call, during the week.
