(Uy the As sociated Proas) Odds of nearly two to one against nn election before int end of tho year nre bolnr necoptod in tho London Insurance market, not withstanding the po.-iiive nfinertlonn In the nres.v mul in ixjlitlrnl circle: thnt an npptal to tho country before Christmas is Inevitable. The- discrep ancy thus manifested in significant of the complete uncertainty fUrrnmid intf the political situation for the mo ment. s ' The morning nWMpapors agnln Bive over their chief, columns to dls cusHion, upcculntluns and supposed revelations. Prime Minister i-loyd George's friends continue to insist that he will not resign, while others assert with equal confidence that lie has determined to ask the country for a vote of confidence at the polls nnd that his speech at Manchester on Saturday will he tho first gun fired in the great electoral campaign. There is general concurrence on ono point, namely thut the crisis has been brought about by the restlvc ncsti of the rank and file of tho con servatives, who are tired alike of the coalition government . and . Lloyd George's leadership and eager to ?t back to party lines. It is stilted In fieeral quarters, however, that the conservative leaders In tho cor.lition cabinet contlnuo loyal to tho pre mier and that the situation in ilia, respect is practically identical with tho position when Lloyd Georo pre- . viously threatened to resign unless tho conservatives "gave Kvcater sup port to his leadership." It Is said this loyalty on tli part of his conservntlva colleagues Is hav ing a great influonce on tho premier's attitude and according to some ver sions lie Is relying upon it to secure the country's support and wreck In advance the conservative convention scheduled for the middle of Novem ber which if held, might attempt to compel tho conservative leaders to re sign their posts. Amidst the many uncertainties ono thing is certain that tho next few days will supply tho public with -mora excitement cOncorning domestic poli tics than it has enjoyed since the out- , break of tho world war. i Ono of the: Interesting features when nn election Is declared, will bo the number of women seeking the limelight of parliamentary life. The present women members, Lndy Astor and Mrs. Margaret Astringhiwu, are said to destro ro-olectlon and nearly a score of others are already an nounced as candidates, the great ma jority being for liberal and labor con fitltituoncies. v GAR SHORTAGE !S CHIEF OBSTACLE i U. S. PROSPERITY NEW YORK, tct. 12. Shortugo of railroad transportation is so great nnd serious that it is not only limiting but will for a long time continue to limit production and commerce of all kinds, Samuel C. Dunn, editor of the Hallway Ago, asserted at tho nnnuul convention of the Associated Huslness Papers hero today. -, ' - Almost every other condition is fa vorable to ail incroaso of production and commerce nnd a revival of pros perity, ho declared. The present situation wns aggravat ed but not croatod by tho coal and railway shopmen's "striko. Mr. Dunn said. Tho condition was due mainly, ho said to a groat Industrial revival and commercial activity and to a Ion? decline in the expansion of railroads. "'The reduction in tho expansion of the railroads has been due to the pol icy of government regulations which for. IB years lias reduced and restricted the net return earned by them," lib said. "Under a ruling of tho Inter state commerco commission they are now entitled to cam an avorage of 6 per cent. Thus fnr In 1U22 they have earnod 4 M per cent. They can novcr raise enough capital to develop their facilities and handlo the country's bus lness until they can earn a larger net return." 7 N ei u it-A ... .. . - Ct l 1 Itsdilterentlrom I others because more care is taken in the making nd the materials used are ol Higher grade.

Ogden Ar mour, packer, and George E. -Marty, president of the Armour Grain com pany, principal witnesses yesterday before the federal trade commission in Its inquiry of trading In grain futures, were In conference with attorneys to day to determine to what extent they will reveal details or their grain trans actions when they appear before the commission again tomorrow. Declining yesterday to disclose the Intimate details of their speculations. Mr. Armour nnd Mr.'Marcy agreed to tell the commission- tomorrow that they woultl furnish the dates and fig ures of their trades requested by the federal Inquiry board. Mr. Armour characterized himself lis a "casual trader" In the grain mar ket, lie denied that Armour and com pany, the packing house, was Interest ed In any grain deals in which he par ticipated, asserting that the packing firm does not trade in grain rutures. He said some of his grain transac tions were handled by the Armour Grain company and some by other bro kers whose names he' .declined to re veal. Hoth Mr Armour nnd Mr. Marcy defended tho board of trade ns a neces sary medium through which the fur mer finds a sure and constant market for his grain. "Tho farmer has a place to sell his grain every day In the year," Mr. Armour said. "Ho may not nt times get tho price he is entitled to but I think it has stabilized conditions. Gen erally speaking, he,. Is better off, 1 would say, than without a speculative future market, because no man in the grain business would buy wheat until he had sold it and you know that same times you have to carry wheat a long time ueiore you can sell it. CHICAGO, Oct.. 12. The cur short-1 age has began to have serljus effects, according to indications shown in the I weekly fruit and vegetable review oi the federal bureau of agricultural eco nomics, Issued today. Last week total shipments of rruits and vegetables de creased nearly 100a cars from the pre ceding week, and although the -peak of tho car lot movement is usually not reached before tho middle of October the last week of September remains the record period for tho current sea son. The to(,al movement of I I fruits and vegetables for the week ending Octo ber 7, was 20,413 cars or 400 less than for the corresponding week last year. Potato shipments were lighter, with a fairly steady time maintained and little price change except a 15 cents advance In Chicago, although in sev eral leading shipping sections, sales were mado at a lower range. Ship ments were about MHO cars below the total of tho previous week. Minnesota led with 11GS cars shipped. Grapes weakened under the heaviest shipments of the season and sweet po tato values declined. New York and Chicago eac received 1000 cars oi grapes for the week. The values for potatoes also declined some at Now York, Michigan nnd Colorado points. Tho official apple report showing a decrease of 15,000,000 barrels in Hie estimated crop is expected to stabilize tho market which was dull and uncer tain in Michigan anil New York. ICarly sales of best grade Baldwins in the Rochester, N. Y., section vuled from $3.25 to $3.50, against $0.50 a barrel a year ago. Michigan prices were 25 cents higher this year than in Roches ter. Not until now has the car short age been felt in ' the northwestern apple growing states, tho report said. NEW BRUNSWICK, N. J., Oct. 12 (Hy Associated Press).
