M. Talcott.) THE MARKET- -While there 18 no essential change the wheat market as view impartially, a halt has been called in the upward trend of values for the time being. While 1m- porting countries will be forced to make additional heavy purchases in order to feed their soldiers and citizens, the demand was less urgent dur. ing the later part of last week. It must be remembered that Argentine has an exportable surplus of probably 95 million bushele and while this wheat has been damaged somewhat, It will make flour.

Holders of wheat in the Southern Hemisphere were eag er to make contract last Friday and Saturday and this too at a level of prices that beats our. Tonnage in South America will permit the shipments of increased quantities of wheat. From July 1st to date primary mar. kets have read 364,868,000 bushel of wheat; last year it was 248,649,000 bushels. It is said by those in the best position to know definitely that larger of the sixty million bushels, of wheat held in the visible supply this winter has already been sold to foreigners.

It de also said that foreigners own the larger part of wheat held at Buffalo, as well as some of the other holdings scattered throughout the country. Wheat will all be moved out of this country in due time. As to the threatened blockade by the Germany government of any 1m- portance in the world differs. Chicago exporters say they have large ship. menta to make during February and along with the outward movement.

March and a that they will go right They belleve that the governments at war will not attempt to interfer with the exportation of bread stuffs from the United States. With the largest stock of corn in the United States visible and the banner stocks at Chicago, there la little likelihood of any pronounced price gains in that market in the absence of a good cash de mand. The short interest has been pretty will eliminated and cash dis counts which were showing a tendency to narrow have again widened.

FAILED TO MAKE A GAP (Continued From Page One.) forces in Poland, in the opinion of Russian observers with an opportunity for the long heralded offensive whose ultimate result will be the expulsion of German forces from west Poland. Ever since the German attack on Borjimow which reached its climax Thursday, the number of German troops between the junction of the Burn river and the Bollmow has been decreasing.

Shifted Their Attack. Following their failure to make terial headway against the Russian line which protected Humin and Borjimow, the Germans shifted their attack to the right bank of the Vistula, northwest of Warsaw, between Lipno and Sierpec. This offensive, however, was not comparable in intensity to the former and it evidently was only interlude to mask an important trans an for of German troops in the direction of East Prussia. The new Russian advance, accordIng to the latest and most reliable information reaching Warsaw, already haa been successful between the Deura Junction and Vitkovitze where they have taken a number of German trenches and started the enemy upon a precipitate retreat, in which the Germans left a large number of pieces of artillery.

At Bagatelle a violent infantry attack was started by the Germans and has been going on since yesterday morning. According to latest reports all of our positions were being maintained. nothing to report." "On the rest of, the front there is German Morale Weakening. Russian military observers in Poland find in the disorder and disorganIzation evidenced in this German retreat increasing proof of what they call the weakening of the German morale.

Although it is expected here that the Russian offensive will now extend over whole Polish front, even the most saguine do not look for any very rapid progress in the resumption of the aggressive, since the Russians have detailed information of elaborate German fortifications extending from the Vistula south to Skierniewice and Lavka. The general consensus of military operation in Warsaw today, how. ever, de that the Russians will. re-take western Poland in the early spring.

"DEAD MAN'S OUTFIT" IN RAILWAY WAGE CASE Motormen Ask for Same Wages as Steam Engineers -Claim Hazard Greater. Chicago, Feb.

dead man's outfit" is the name given by motormen to the control on electric locomotives which automatically shuts the current and applies the brakes if the motorman takes his hands from the controller while on duty. The apparatus was described here today before the board of arbitration in the western railways wage case by R. E. Hewitt, master mechanic of the electrified lines of the Southern Pacitic. The engineers and firemen demand among other things that motormen be paid the same 88 locomotive engineers, the rate of pay be based upon the rate of tractive effort of the cars.

In presenting their side of the case, the engineers asserted that the hazard on electric locomotives was greater than that on steam engines. Hewitt testified that the hazard was slight and that the size of the electrio engine does not increase the work of the motorman. Whether the power be small or great the motorman's work is the same. He simply moves the controller Mr. Hewitt said.

"He keeps his hand on the controller to keep the contact," said witness. It is what we call a 'dead man's If he faints or drops dead and his hand leaves the controller, it springs up and the current is Interrupted. The brakes are set too." OH, CONSISTENCY!
