Neb., Nov. ;7. The ten per cent freight reduction on farm products, agreed to yesterday by rail road executives in New York is not sufficient to give the farmers any re lief, the Omaha Grain Kxchange, through its president, Charles H. Wright, wired the Inter-state coin- merec commission and the Nebraska! congressional delegation today, ask ing that efofrts be made to make ef fective a greater reduction ordered by the commission October 20. "While a ten per cent reduction on all farm products shipped for a period of six months is proposed, the hulk of these commodities, such aa wheat, cotton and tobacco, has already mov ed to market, while the movement of one of the largest corn crops ever raised is pending," said the telegram, adding that "nothing less than the rates ordered by the commission ef fective November 10 would be of any material benefit to the farmer."

FELLOWSHIP TEA AT YJ. CI FRIDAY FAR EAST PROBLEMS UP FIRST (Continued from page one.) ern riiscussirms and tlmse relating to armament reduction began to follow entirely independent pathways and there was a growing impression that sooner or later all the interested na tions would come ar jiuid to the view that the fortunes of the two are not inseparably linked. The United States from the first has felt that solution of the Far Kastern questions would be great aid in preserving peace, but the American delegate apparently do not feel that the armaments program need be a failure if the Far Kastern discus sions fall short of an agreement. After the meeting of the "big nine" the folio win if statement was issued: "A meeting was held this morning at the Pan-American building of the siib-conmiince appointed to outline a course of procedure for the discus sion ff the Pacific and Far Kastern CHICAGO, Nov. IT Two persons are reported dead and more than a scoro injured as the result of a col lision between two trains on the Chi cago and Oak Park elevated railroad in a fog. shortly after nine o'clock to day. The injured were rushed to a nearby hospital and police and elevat ed officials were attempting to check up on the dead and injured. Hoth the rains were bound down town with crowds of workers. At least twenty people were injured, according to early iolice reports. Wil liam Griffin, aged 15, was caught be tween two cars and had his leg crush ed. He may die. Two victims were caught between the two trains and firemen are trying to reach them. Three passengers, Louis Brady, Julius lieriin and a Dr. Clump were early taken to a hospital. Thirty min-' utcs after the wreck the offices of the elevated lines had no definite reports. 1 RIALTQ NOW PLAYING! WILLIAM FARNUM in "HIS GREATEST SACRIFICE" A pouei-fnl modern drama, with Mi.
