MILLION SOLD FOR EXPORT | No. 2 hard wheat went to $1.90 on the Omaha Grain exchange, a new top price for this class of grain. The this_year is grading No. 2 hard, yet generally the quality is not quite up to that fetching the record price. Another high record was made when mixed wheat sold at $1.92. This was for wheat grown out in the vi- cinity of Lodge Pole, n the western | part of the state. | All wheat prices were 2 to 4 cents i higher than_Thursday, the sales be- bushel. frosts and grasshoppers doirg great damage to the Argentine wheat crop. | Then, too, there were reports of an enormous exportation, 8mnha get- ting in on close to 1,000,000 bushels bought for shipment to Liverpool. maha receipts were ninety-seven carloads, or something. over 1,000,000 bushels. Corn Advances, Too. Corn. followed wheat in the upturn, rices advancing 2 to 3 cents per ushel and selling at 92 to 95 cents per bushel. The corn of both the old and the new crop sold at substantially the same price. Receipts for the day were eighteen carloads, Oats were strong and sold at 53 to 54 cents per bushel, an advance of 1 to 1% cents. There is a tip out that oats are due to a sharp advance in the near’ future, all on account of it being reported that the allies are in the market for several million bush- els ‘to be shipped abroad as soon as steamer space is available, greater portion of Nebraska wheat | ing made around $1.84 to $1.90 per | The cause of the advance | was attributed to reports of heavy | 'WILSON BLECTED BY MAJORITY OF ONLY FEW YOTES (Continued from Page One.) of contests over o lector in each instance. The eligibility of a demo- "cratic elector in Texas has been ques- tioned because he is said to be an | office holder, and the federal laws | prohibit a person holding office from | serving as an elector. One of the democratic electors died in Washington just before election day and the party managers attached pasters to the ballots substituting an- other name for his. The legality of this procedure has been questioned by the republicans. A somewhat similar case has arisen in West Virginia, where one of the republican electors refused to rum, and the republicans resorted to pasters bearing another name in place of his. Up to the time republican head- quarters here were closed, soon after midnight, the party leaders gathered | there refused to concede defeat. They seemed to base their report upon the assumption that “something might happen” in California. Mr, Hughes was told before he retired that Cali- fornia had gone against him, but he had no comment to make. There was m}xch speculation today amon, playcg by women in the election. An analysis of their vote was ecagerly awaited. While President Wilson lost in Illinois and Oregon, he carried Washington, Idaho, Wyoming, Utah, Colorado, Arizona, Kansas, Nevada and California, the other ten states in which women voted, Department Orders Washington, Nov. 10.—(Speclal gram.)—On _recommendation of Hitcheoek, Dr. Walter P.

'Messages Pour in On Montana Woman Named for Congress Missoula, Mont., Nov. 10.—Mes- sages of congratulation from suf- frage leaders in many parts of the country poured into Missoula today for Miss Jeanette Rankin, republican, the first woman to be elected to con- gress.

PROVIDE FOR CONTINGENCY (From a Staff Correspondent.) Washington, Nov. 10.—(Special Telegram.)—If the presidential elec- tion should, by hook or crook, be Charles E. Hughes would win. Under the cir- cumstances, the statement of former | Attorney General Wickersham that it is likely the election will be decided by the house becomes of moment Should enough electors be deprived of votes by contests to make a tie in the electoral college, or should neither candidate have a majority in the elec- toral college, then the election would go to the house. In such cases the vote is taken by states, the representation from each state having one vote. It would be the present house, and not the new one, which would decide. The present house is in control of the democrats, but there are twenty- five state delegations out of the forty- eight which are republicans. Twenty- one are democratic and two—Ne- braska and Utah—are evenly divided. The delegations controlled by 're- publicans are those of Connecticut, Delaware, Idaho, Illinois, Iowa, Maine, Massachusetts, Michigan, Min- nesota, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, North Dakota, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Dakota, Ver- mont, Washington, Wisconsin, Wy- oming and West Virginia. California is listed with the states that would vote for Wilson, though this is doubtful, owing to the number of men on the delegation elected as progressives. But, disregarding Cali- fornia, the republicans of the house would elect Mr. Hughes if the choice ’went to the house. e dars, Postcards, Children’ son, Art Dept., Third Floor Two Linen Specials for Saturday Only $4.60 Madeira Napkins, scal- . loped and embroidered, $3.89 a dozen. ¢ ¥ 82.‘00 Cluny Lace Scarfs, Toilet Articles At Very Low Prices Fine Toilet Soap, a bargain, at 12¢ a box.
