Civil Service Exam Rapped Woman Eliminated in Contest for Beatrice Postmastership Intimates Politics. _ Beatrice, Neb., July 25.—In an open letter submitted to the Dally Bun to night, Mrs. Clark Perkins, wife of the late editor of the Beatrice Express •nd president of the Nebraska Press association, unfavorably comments «n the recent postmastership ex aminations here. Mrs. Perkins, R. R. Kyd, H. L. ' Harper, G. L. Mumford, Robert Pease and Postmaster J. R. McCann entered the contest. Yesterday an Associated Press disfpatch stated that McCann, Mumford and Pease, were the three highest in the examination, hence the other candidates were elimi nated. Congressman M. O. Me Laughlin will pick his choice from the trio. “I sincerely thank my friends for their faithful support," says Mrs. Perkin's letter, "but an explanation is due. There was no educational or civil service examination in con nection with our applications. We were simply given life questionnaires. Education counted 20 per cent only. Therefore some other factor rather than failure to pass a civil service examination is the basis for the elimination of candidates." Mrs. Perkins is the first woman ever to aspire to the position. Mr. Pease and Mr. Mumford are repub licans. So is Congressman McLaugh lin. Postmaster McCann is a demo crat.

Hoover Takes Up Cudgels in Favor of Finny Tribe By Anorlatnl Pmt. Aboard U. S. S. Henderson, July 25. —Declaring "pious statements, scien tific discussion and political oratory will not spawn salmon," Secretary Hoover, rs head of the governmental department having to do with Alas kan fisheries, asserted in a state ment yesterday, that there must be a temporary reduction in the number of fish taken from Alaskan waters and at the same time there must be constructive measures for enlarging propagation. Otnerwise, he said, sal mon fishing, now one of the largest of Alaska’s Industries, will be lost In a few years. Mr. Hoover, in his statement, which was based on close range study given the Alaskan fisheries question while In the territory as a member of President Harding’s party, expressed hope that congress would act at the forthcoming session to give federal administration agencies more con structive powers. Any new legisla tion, he add'd, must be on as broad a scope as posslbtt, as the method of regulation must vary with each local ity and because of dealing with prob lems of wide human and property in terest should afford a method of ap peal to some Independent commission or authority.

Total shipments were 98 cars against 139 cars last year. There was a somewhat better demand for cash wheat on the Omaha market with prices H 1° lc higher. Corn was steady, He higher. Oats were quoted nominally He higher. Rye was nom inally lc higher and barley nominally unchanged. Scattered selling by commis sion housea met an inadequate demand The weakness of Liverpool and general ly favorable weather over the grain belt were factors in cAuaing a lower range of values at the opening of the Chicago futures market. There was considerable liquidation and hedge selling but the market absorbed these offerings on the break and a good rally follow*-! Corn waa strong cm account of the dry, hot weather prevailing in the southwest while there were no claims of damage sonsiderahle apprehension waa felt a* the crop is in need of moisture. Later In the day a very good class of commission house buying developed on reports of rust damage in the northwest and Canada Winnipeg and Minneapolis markets were particularly strong. Shorts covered freely on the way up and final prices were close around the best of the day. Market News. R. W. Kinyon wires from Jamestown, N. D.: Drove from Casuelfon here. Cas iSelton to Valley City nearly all marquis; all in dough. Fields full of rust And dam aged about 60 per cent. Valley City here, acreage of marquis and durum about equal. Very little rust; not damaged yet. Extreme heat ripening field8 fast and they may get by. Oats, rye and barley good. Rye harvest Is finished and stand was above state acreage. Price Current Grain Reporter says: The corn crop has been making rapid growth of late under the combined stimulus of rather warm weather with showers in the states of large production. In Texaa and Oklahoma there has been some, deterioration but aside from that the outlook for the country la probably somewhat better than it was a month ago. Kansas state crop report says: With the exception of the southern counties the condition of tho soil is generally ex pressed as good. Most of the southern counties are getting too much dry weather. In eastern Kansas wheat threshing is probably 60 per cent fin ished and many fields are being disced and plowed in the central portion though reported at 25 per cent completed and fall seed bed preparation is well under way. Corn is looking fine although in need of moisture. Reports Indicate that It is now practically all in taas**! and silk. Chinch bugg^are causing damage and grasshoppers are taking toll in the western counties. Oats are practically all threshed and the yields only fair. Export demand. Rusaela News wires: Overnight business In wheat continued very moderate with Indications of sales of about 200.000 bushels. One exporter sold a little 4 to, Sweden and Hamburg while United Kingdom demand continued poor. Referring to (he talk of farmers hold ing their wheat, Nat C. Murphy says: Farmers of the United States normally .market 45 per cent of their wheat crop during the first three months of the crop year (July, August and September), 31 per cent in the second quarter; 14 per ! cent in the third quarter and 10 per cent | in the fourth quarter. These are 10 year averages. WHEAT. No. 3 dark hard: 1 car, 97c. No. 1 hard winter: 2 cars, 91 He 1 car. 92 He; 4 cars. 92c.

Chicago, July 26.— Bullish crop news from t)ie American snd t'ansdlan spring; wheat territory arrested an early dip to- j day and started a short covering move ment wbfrlr carried price* rapidly high- j er at the close. The relative stability: of the Minneapolis and Winnipeg mar kets laid stress on the situation north west. Wheat closed 144c to 1 \c higher; corn was lc to 144c advanced; oats were %c to 44c higher; rye ruled *4c to 1 tyc up, and barley finished steady. Ueadtng houses in the trade were well represented on the buying side of the market. Glimmering crop prospects In the spring wheat territory have been Ignored for some time because of the increasing hedging pressure and the desultory foreign demand. The seaboard confirmed sales of front 1,2 6(1,000 to 1.600.000 bushels wheat. Torn Trice* Advance. Hot and dry weather over the corn belt southwest and reports of corn fir ing in Iowa led to a resumption of bul lish activity in this pit and advanced prices sharply. Country offerings were moderate. Primary receipts totalled *19.000 bushels, against 9k.000 bushels last year. Cash houses were good buyers of oats on the early dip and prices worked easily higher with the advance In other grains. The July delivery displayed a light situation late in the day. Rye worked higher with wheat. Trade was slow* with pressure still off the mar ket. Provisions eased under selling by pack ers and commission houses. hard closed 15c to 20c lower and ribs were 7 *<40 to 1244c lower. Tit Notes. Cash wheat in domestic markets strengthened appreciably. In this market elevator interests were again lafter the hard grades Northwestern millers have been credited with taking t lie winter wheat out of the southwest market be cause of its cheapness and apparent high quality. The fancy premiums that choice wheat demands in the Minneapolis mar ket signifies that it is a scarce article. The winter wheat crop this year seerns to be of unusually fine quality. Reports for several weeks from the southwest *aut* that the bulk of the wheat was be ing graded No. 1 hard. American mil lers and European buyers have been credited with holding off because of the rosy' crop prospects In Canada, not be cause of the large crop especially, but the excellency of the plant. Reports had It that wheat headed to the Gulf was In active demand and scarce. The seaboard advised that south western grain houses were buying back wheat. In the east, apparently to fillj sales at the Gulf ports. Demand for flour Is picking up in the northwest with a gain in the actual sales of new- orders. The character of the news in the cables from the United Kingdom continues to dwell on the American trade that sup plies abroad are being offered In liberal quantities. The world's available sup plies, however, are under last year, tota! ing 90.960,000 bushels compared with 98.671.000 bushels respectively. CHICAGO MARKET. Fy Updike Grain Company, Douglaa 2$27.

New York. July 25—Th* stock market moved in aimless fashion today, in the absence of new developments having a bearing, on the shaping of security prices. Personal shorts attempted, on two oc casions. to Induco m resumption of liqui dation by attacking the oils and north west share*. but failed. Quotations eased cff from a fraction to a full point but when the Hat showed resistance the atocks aold were taken hack, with the result tha» closing prices showed few Im portant net changes • ’ommlsslon houses complained of a lack of business and an unwillingness on the part of customers to make any new commitments pending more definite news relative to the progress being made with regard to the Ruhr and reparations. The market ha* got Into a rut and there la little hope that It will move in either direction unless some impor tant develot ment occurs The nireet con tinues to hold out hope for favorable news from Europe A large short Interest continues to exist but it does not manifest, any signs of uneasiness with th«hJ»ig interest unwil ling to purchase shares except on a scale down Much attention has been directed recently to the price fluctuations of wheat but even higher prices for that commodity as well as cotton failed to break the Inertia. Wall street la awaiting with more than usual Interest, publication next Tuesday of the tsecond quarter's earnings of the United States Steel corporation. It is hoped that they will be sufficiently favor able to stimulate stock market .opera tions. Little hope is held out by Important oil producers for betterment in the ojl Industry. Rumor# were again current that the price of mldcontinent crude would be rut Thursday. Considerable significance is attached to the meeting of prominent oil producers to be held «t Chicago Thursday when tbe oil situation will be discussed The price of kerosene was reduced today hy the Northwestern Pennsylvania refiners and furnished an other indication that the trend of oil prices continues downward. Prices of oil shares, however, have had such a severe drop from their high levels for this year that the professional shorta hav#» no success In trying to Induce ad ditional liquidation. The shares hav« found lodgement In strong hands and this accounts for the failure of the shorts In trying to dislodge the atocks Sentiment is mixed regarding the tran sportation shares, A firm undertone prevailed In the bond market. Industrial and railroad conver tibles were slight ly lower early, owing to the heaviness of tha shares into which they are convertible. Foreign Issues were a shade lower.
