Ilriefly, today's action means thst hereafter th mayor and chief cannot discharge or discipline any member of tb United i'olice without calling down th wrath of their organitation. It means th police will work to suit themselves, regardless of the public or their sufierlor officers. It creates in Chicago a modem i'retorun Gusrd, which recognises no ruler but thos it choose.

The North Dakota' screw (tandarization tests over the Rockland measured mil course today developed a maximum speed of 2.23 anots, an average of 21.833. Both marks are in excess of th best oer- formances of either her sister ship, the ueiswsre, or tne neiieroplion, tb lead lag Dreadnaught of th British navr. in attaining this speed the turbine engines of the North Dakota were forced to the development of more horsepower than haa been reaehed by any battleship afloat. A maximum of 35,150 horsepower waa recorded, while 33,875 horsepower was tb mean amount. The maximum number of rev ulutions of her nickel eoinDosition nro pellers was 280 a minute. It was found that 203 revolutions in this time were sufficient to maintain the contract speed oj. auoia. The North Dakota by her perform ance today takes precedence as a gen eral first-class battleship. The figures recorded today surpass those of any other Dreadnaught. There ia but one such battleship afloat the attainments of which may exceed those of the North Dakota. This is the NeDtune. just launched for the British navy.

Dominion Bend Wheat to America for Shipment Abroad. Montreal, Nov. 5. Frelgnt rates have Drought about a curious situation in connection with the shipment of srrain from Canada to England. Despite the large increase in the grain output from tho Canadian Weal, Montreal is get ting less of the grain freight trade man it baa bad in recent rears. The explsnation ia tbat freight rates from Boston to Liverpool are one and one-hair eenta per bushel cheaper than rrom .Montreal to Liverpool and that though the extra cost of transportation of the grain from the Canadian West to ttoaton . brings the total cost of rreight irom tbe wheat fields to Eng land to 12 3-4 cents in each ease, ths insurance on the freight from Boston a less than one-third of that on srrain on the Montreal route outward bound. In other words, American porta are getting Montreal's grain export trade because the insurance rates on grain cargoes from those porta are about 70 per cent less than those on such freight nom aiontreai.
