CHICAGO GRAI.V AND PROVISIONS
1 Features of the Trading: and Closing;
Prices on Board of ' Trade.
CHICAGO. June 8. With scorching heat
In Kansas and Nebraska and with hesX.n
fly damage spreading through Indiana, all
cereals today scored a sharp advance in
price. Wheat led the way and finished
strong to lSi"le higher than last night,
latest trading left corn Tko to lcgl4c up,
oats dearer by VSlc and provisions un
changed or costing the consumer 2V4fc5c
mors than before.
In i contrast with previous days, the
strengthening and expansion of the what
market was nearly uniform instead of
being confined to a single option. An
other noticeable feature waa the fact that
the damage reports from both Indiana and
the west were accompanied by orders to
l purchase wheat. Foreigners also were
active buyers In Chicago. A good deal
I of the time the market waa entirely bare
I of offerings and there was a constant
'bidding up of quotations. Cash wheat rose
) with the futures, the big owners going
sharfly after the carlot arrivals and pay
ling stiff rates for the privilege. For July
the top and bottom figures of the day
!were Xe and StlHe, with last sales 984c,
'a net gain of l4o.
Lightness of country sales had consider
able to do with the advance In corn. July
i ranged from 534SMc to 64c and closed
1 firm and Tlc up at 6440. Cash grades
were In fair demand. No. 2 yellow fin
ished at 66-ici6Kc.
, Complaints were numerous that oats had
been heading short In many parts of the
.leading states. Decreased acreage cut a
figure. July fluctuated between 36(Sr374c
jand S7V,c. cloning ftlc net higher at 87o
straight, almost the record price thus far
during the crop year.
; The provision market could not wholly
escape the bullish spirit of the neighbor
ing pits. Pork was chalked up a nickel
higher at the end of the day and there
were lesser gains put to the credit of lard
and ribs.

NEW YORK, June 8. (Rpeclsl Telegram.)
The week has brought a material enlarge
ment of Stock exchange business, but from
the point of view of the trading element,
which Is responsible for the most of it, the
period hss not been a very profitable one.
Professional Wall street badly misread the
situation whlchflt found on coming down
to business after the Memorial day holiday.
Preparations had been made for an enthu
siastic response to the tobacco decision,
slmalar to that which had greeted the
Standard Oil verdict.
The essential point which over-sanguine
speculators had overlooked, was, of course,
that the Wall street position itself was-far
less strong than it had been the week be
fore. The Standard Oil decision was handed
down at a time when the market had care
fully prepared for a shock. There waa a
short Interest of respectable dimensions
outstanding and stocks were for the most
part concentrated in powerful hands.
At the beginning of the current week, on
the other hand, these technical conditions
had become considerably weskened. both
by the retirement very extensively of con
tracts for the fall and by the entrance into
the market of a large number of petty
speculstors for the rise. It Is the consensus
or opinion now among Close ooservers 01
the trading that Wednesday's price move
ment was nothing more or less than a well
laid, well executed plan to get rid of an
undesirable following, and at the same
time to replace to advantage stocks which
had been sold the previous week.
Jast a Paaslngr Che-k.
This maneuver was helped by two col
lateral incidents, either of which would
have been calculated to exercise an un
settling effect. One was the declaration of
an "open market" In the steel trade, which
was what waa meant bv the announce
ment that the other steel manufacturers
would meet the cuts In prices initiated Dy
the Republic Iron company. The other was
the - extraordinary collapse 01 American
Tobacco shares In the curb dealings. That
these occurrences temporarily should give
sentiment a shock was intelligible enough
more soberly viewed as they were later In
the week, tney could not be presumed to
exert more than a passing check.
The stock market finally fell Into line
with the improved sentiment, and reached
a buoyant -stage, with prices showing an
average advance of over 8 points, com
pared with a week ago, and with many
new high prices for the year. Some favor
able developments of a direct beating
stimulated the rising trend. Pome of
these were the progress made by Pennsyl
vania, New York Central and other lead
ing systems in readjusting their ration of
operating expenses to gross revenue on a
more economical basts, thereby bringing
about net gains for April, a condition In
marked contrast to that of previous
months. .
The record mortgage of 8600,000,000 filed
by the Great Northern was another mat
ter that exercised a potent influence, as
It waa regarded as an expression of con
fidence in the future by such an experi
enced railway magnate as James J. Hill.
The ease with which $30,000,000 of this new
mortgage was placed reflected a revived
Investment demand for bonds following
closely upon over-subscriptions to the Oregon-Washington
Navigation railway loan
here, and abroad, and .the marketing of
$20,000,000 Missouri, Kansas & Texas bonds
in Paris.
Mammary of Events.
It is now generally oonoeded that ?V
Panama canal loan will be a complete suc
cess, and such -an outcome would, help
sentiment. London discounts are down
to 2 per cent and money Is extremely eiiy
at Paris, thus the situation abroad is Qj,e
favorable tor the absorption, of AneAui
bonds.
The domestlo situation la also favorable.
The aftermath of the reduction In prices
of Steel was quite different from that of
1909. ' Then - there was a great rush for
business on the present steel mills and the
result was considerable ' demoralization,
from which the trade did not recover for
several months.
Now. nothing Ilka this is apparent, ami
the orderly manner In which price reduc
tions are Deing conducted has Inspired suf
ficient confidence to bring in numerous
Inquiries from consumers, and it is esti
mated the various mills are working on
the basis of an increase In output of 6 to
10 per cent over the recent low level.
Although such general business as Is now
being conducted throughout the country re
flects a continuance of marked conservat
ism, merchants and manufacturers are
now taking a more hopeful view as to the
future.
The crop outlook as a whole can still be
called favorable.
Stocks continued their upyard way at
the opening of the stock market this morn.
Ing and after many new high levels were
rached, due to pool operations and con
siderable commission house buying for the
long account, they sold off rapidly during
the final hours under heavy realizing sales.
The final quotations, however, were frac
tionally above those of last night.
On the early upward movement, St.
Paul showed considerable vigor, advancing
to 128-va new high price for the year. Union
Pacific. Atchison and nearly all the other
railroad Issues scored substantial gains.
United States steel advanced more than
a point and many specialties rose 1 to 2
points. The scarcity of supply was a factor
In sending prices higher. On the late re
cession Northern Pacific and Great North
ern were supplied more freely and St. Paul
receded a point from its high level; but of
all . the active Issues American Telephone
and Canadian Pacific alone displayed
heaviness.
American Tobacco, on the curb, continued
weak and declined almost to the low point
of the week, after a moderate advance.
The tobacco bonds were active In the
bond department. It was rumored that
some of them would be retired. The
activity in bonds continued In today's
trading. The weekly statement of the as
sociated banks of the city shows a sub
stantial Increase In loans for the first
time in a number or weeks.

CATTLE There were no cattle ot any
consequence on sale this morning, the mar
ket, as usual on a Saturday, being practi
cally bare of supplies although a few
scattering cars were reported in. Receipts
lor the week have been very . moderate,
showing a large fulling off as compared
with recent weeks. -
Under the influence of a very fair local
demand and greatly, decreased receipts
the market on beef steers this week has
had a gradual upward movement. Prices
have really not been quoted any higher,
but still they have been creeping up slowly
and at tne close ot me week are arounu
loc higher than last week.
While the best dry lot heifers and light
COws have held up very' well the general
run of cow stuff, especially anything show
ing grass or anything on the canner order
has had a downward movement and prices
at the close, of the week are lo'2oc lower.
Veal calves have been in very good de
mand and at the same time very light sup
ply, this, week, with the result that prices
have rapidly advanced, the best grades
selling as high as $8.60.
Bulls and stags have been very fair sell
ers all the week at fully steady prices.
Feeders have been in very light supply
thla' week, but there have been a good
many stockers on the common order re
ceived during the last few days. At the
same time, country demand has not been
overly urgent and with a surplus of cattle
At the close of the week prloes yesterday,
which had been, steady all the week, broke
as much as 25c. This means thAt the week
is closing fully 26c lower than last week
on that kind of cattle.

HOQS Demand for hogs had both vol
ume and tone, producing a trade that was
steady early and strong to 6c higher late.
About 102 cars were yarded In all and
regular buyers purchased freely through
out the session. Clearance of bulk was
made before 10 - o'clock and all weights
showed good action.
Orders from shipping and speculative
quarters called for about one-eighth of the
supply, but there was no appreciable pref
erence for any particular class of stock.
Spreads held at narrow margins and qual
ity was a primary factor In determining
price.
Lard grades sold around $5.70xg6.75 and
desirable butchers moved at or near $6.8o.
Light mixed offerings and choice bacon
animals brought as much as $6.96, a top
that la 6c above yesterday's high price.
Despite the fact that receipts this week
have been liberal, the demand has been
broad and prloes have held up very credit
ably. The bulk as well as the top today
shows a nickel decline from prices a week
ago.

SHEEP There was nothing doing In
either the sheep or Ismb msrkets today, as
every branch of the trade was bsrren. The
scale of values remained nominal.
Supplies during the week give a total
that is relatively light, only 15.000 head
showing up In all. Nearly half of this
r in consisted of wooled Mexican lambs, a
class of stock that is seldom available at
market so late In the season. Shorn west
ern lambs were In very fair supply on
most days, but matured sheep, such as
ewes, wethers, etc., have been scarce at
all times.
The main trade. Involving wooled Mex
icans only, opened steady, became a quar
ter cheaper at mid-week and regained the
loss on a two-car offering yesterday. Toppy
Mexican lambs In fleece are now selling
around $7.50, quotably steady with a week
ago.
During the major portion of the week
short runs had no appreciable Influence
upon demand. Shorn lambs had to be
placed on a more attractive basis and pres
ent prices are about 35c lower than those
of a week ago. Slumpy conditions at larger
trading points In the east have had a
considerable Influence upon the local sit
uation and are largely credited with bear
ish trend ot values in the face of light
offerings.
Volume of business In old sheep was
hardly large enough to afford anything
like a good reflection of the market. He
cent sales average up weak to some lower
and present quotations indicate a net de
cline of about a quarter.

NATURE FAKERS GOING SOME
Spring; Collection of Cariosities from
Crowless Rooster to Iloldnp
Mouse.
If F. I. Wei born of Kansas City sue
ceeds In his latest plan, late sleepers will
rise up to call him blessed, for nothing
less now than a crowless rooster Is Mr.
Welborn's aim. Already he has produced
an almost wingless chicken, which Is
guaranteed to stay at home. The neigh
bors of Mr. Welbom out on Dauphin ave
nue wanted to give him a medal for that
but he modestly asked them to wait until
he had perfected his crowless rooster; and
they then could give him something really
worth while. They told him If he' suc
ceeded they would Insist on both a Nobel
prize and a Carnegie hero medal for him.
"I was down in South Carolina last week
and I saw a freak of nature that our friend
Congressman Legare ought to have
brought to Washington for the oo or for
the edification of his congressional breth
ren," said Johnson A. Tunison of Florida,
quoted by the Washington Post. "This
freak was a cow with seventeen horns.
The farmer living near Greenville who
owns the cow is very proud of the ant
mal. The horns protrude from the cow's
back along the spine. Each Joint of the
spinal column seems to be the base for a
horn. The cow is normal in every other
way. She gives Just a little more milk
than any other cow in the pasture. The
owner has been offered a large amount
of money for the cow by museum owners,
but he refuses to sell. I might add that
the farmer has named the cow Cornucopia,
and he thinks the name was appropriate."
jA Long Island railroad train was stalled
ten minutes by a mouse last week. It
was an electric train going; west over the
Rockaway Beach division. At the Oxone
park crossing- a switch was thrown and
the train halted. Tralnment went forward
and found the tower switchman making
vain efforts to turn the switch. The
motorman suggested that something was
"stuck in the switch box." The small
metal switch box between thai tracks was
opened, and between the teeth was found
the body of a mouse. Its little body had
bo clogged the teeth that th6 switch could
not be operated.
Eight little pigs are the foster children
gf a white hen on the farm of Emll Carl
son at WlnBted. Conn. This spring, Carl
son says, the hen formed the habit of lay
ing In the pigpen. The pig was fond of
eggs and did not object.
When the hen decided to set she found
nothing to sit on "until a litter of pigs ar
rived. These she simply adopted, and when
they went to sleep, plied In a heap after
the manner Of young pigs, she climbed to
the top of the pile, and spreading her
wings, did her best to cover the twelve.
She has stayed with her strange family
constantly. Now that they run out of j
doors she follows them about in great dis
tress. "By John Rogers!'' exclaimed Joseph
Rogers when yanked into deep water at
Highland Lake, N. H., "I'll get that darned
whopper yet," he added as he floundered
In the water.
The "whopper" was a large eel. Rogers
was fishing for perch, standing In one
end of a boat. "When he plunged head
foremost into the lake he clung to his rod
and kept himself afloat until his two com
panions In the boat rescued him and landed
the eel. It was six feet long.
A goat roosting In a tree Is the newest
bit of scenery on the farm of Robert
Rogers, two and one-half miles northeast
of Fulton, Mo.
Recently Rogers shipped a load of goats
to St. Louis and upon counting thein,
missed one of the quadrupeds. One day
Elijah Palmer passed a tree on the Palmer
farm and saw the goat curled up In a
bough. John Berry, who lives about a half
mile from the Rogers farm, had noticed a
white object in a tree on his neighbor's pre
serve, but be was unable to make out what
It was.
A hen belonging to Virgin Johnson of
Glasgow, Ky., laid an egg the other day
which had upon one end of it the photo
graph in red of a snake colled and ready
to strike. .
Just what caused the phenomenon Is not
known. Nothing like It was ever heard of
before in this part of the country. It has
been suggested by a physician here that
the hen might have been charmed or
frightened by a snake colled In the grass
while the egg was forming, and that a
picture of the snake was impressed upon
the shell of the egg which was then soft
and saturated with the albumen of the
eng.

BT PRKPTON C. ADAMS.
NF.W YOU K. June S (Special to The
pee. I After all la said and done, the pros
perity of the country rests on the crops.
This mav be trite, but It Is true. Hence
accurate Information concerning the condi
tion of the crops Is s mlirlity good founda
tion upon which to build a forecast of the
business future.
With this prelude. It mav be permitted
to print a statement which comes from
a big manufacturing concern In the mldtllo
west, whose agents nnd salesmen cover
the entire countrv snd are In a particu
larly favorable position to get accurate In
formation concerning the crops. The state
ment savs;
"The dominant note seems to be that
while both soil and growing crop condi
tions, as a rule, are excellent, the princi
pal matter now to watch Is rainfall
throughout the west, northwest, the cen
tral west, as upon the amount which we
receive in these sections between now and
July 1 will depend the outcome of the
crops: apparently there Is no surplus
moisture In the soil In the sections men
tioned, nor In the southeastern Atlantic
states." I
Conditions Mostly Farornhle.
Western half of Oklahoma still too dry,
and while sufficient moisture for present
needs In eastern Colorado, western Kan
sas, western Nebraska, eastern W'vnmlng,
Idaho and Montana, all of both Dakotas,
northern Minnesota, northern Wisconsin,
yet reports show subsoil In these sections
very drv. hence need of seasonable rains
from now to Insure crops.
Corn not all planted, but general increase
6 to 10 per cent in acreage indicated;
plant so far in good condition.
Cotton mostlv planted, with about 6 per
cent Increase in acreage. Orowth of cotton
plant retarded east of Alleghnnlea by dry,
cool weather; west of the same to Missis
sippi river by cool, wet weather; particu
larly fine west of the Mississippi river; no
mention of boll weevil.
Winter wheat promises as large a crop
under favorable conditions as ever har
vested; about 5 per cent Increase In acre-,
age. Spring wheat In good shape; about
10 per cent Increase in acreage.
Itrge Increase In oats acreage, but con
dition badly spotted.
Large increase In flax acreage in north
west. All secondary crops show Increase In
acreage; generally good condition.
Larue Increase In acreaire of alfalfa,
kafflr corn and all forage crops In south
west. Fruit crop promises largest for years,
particularly apples and berries. Peaches
hurt severely in certain sections, but still
good crop. Citrus fruit damaged to soma
extent In southern California and Florida
peninsula.
Coal mining improving; all other mining
quiet.
Live stock shows Improvement over last -year.
Lumber Interests oulet.
Sufficient water In Irrigation districts In
West.
Good Job for Kxpert.
One of the most Important hanking posi
tions In the United States must shortly he
filled and already the possihle candidate)
are being considered. The office Is that of
special examiner for the enlarged New
York clearing house. No other man In the
country will he placed in possession of so
full information concerning the financial
operations of New York Cltv. It will tie
his duty to ascertain the exact status
of every bank and trust company In the
organization. From him nothing will . be
hid.
He will be clothed with unlimited power
In regard to Investigating banking ac
counts and transactions. The knowledge
he will thus gain would he worth pur
chasing at almost anv price. It is es
sential, therefore, that the governors of
the clearing house make the most rigid
stipulations as to the conduct of this of
ficial during his term of office and after
he may resign.
To secure the right kind of a man a
very lare-e salarv will be necessarv not
less than $25,000 per annum. In all probabil
ity. To have the duties performed thor
oughly and Imaprtlally would be worth
four times that sum to New York. It
Is said that no local banker will be
chosen, for reasons that need not be spe
cified. Second In Importance to the admission
of trust oompanles to clearing house mem
bership Is the agreement to appoint a spe
cial examiner with an adequate staff. It
Is even said that If the financial powers
were as anxious to introduce this Innova
tion as they were to enroll the trust com
panies. Without casting the sllirhtest aspersion
fo the state banking department. It cannot
be sold that Its periodic examinations In
spire full confidence now that the trust
company business has reached such a mag
nitude and has become so extremely diver
sified in character. When merely trust
funds were handled the public's Interest
In these Institutions were not very great,
but today the New York trust companies
are to be found engaging In all sorts of
operations, from the promoting of "holes
In the ground." as mines, to the collecting
of Interest on the government bonds of
widows and orphans. The national bunks
want to have a proper check upon ques
tionable doings, and It Is believed that the
new arrangement will prove a valuable
step In the right direction.
Standard Losing; Old Leaders.
One by one the Old-timers of the Standard
OU are receiving their final summons, and
the younger generation have not yet de
monstrated their ability to successfully
fill the gaps. Seven prominent Standard
Oil men have died within the last few
years, so that today only a few of those
who were associated with John D. Rock a. -feller
in the early stages of his career
remain at the helm. Daniel O'Day wtis
among the first to go. H. H. Rogers,
often described as "the brains of Standard
Oil." died under lamentable circumstances;
In financial circles It was well known "that
this rugged financier lost heart over the
events of 1907. W. P. Howe. W. H. Til- :
ford. F. Q. HarBtow and Philip Ruprecht '
have all passed away, while this week
James Smith, head of the manufacturing
committee of the Standard OU company,
died suddenly at the age of 63. How far
overwork has been responsible for the
mortality among Standard Oil officials
cannot be - guuged. but those best
acquainted with the facts believe that the
strain Involved has been a factor In cut
ting short the lives of more than one
of those hero enumerated.
Who will be the successors of the Stand
ard Oil leaders removed bv death and of
the septuagenarians and octogenarians
whose active labors are nearlng an end?
Young John D. Rockefeller has no taste
for business, but desires to devote his Ufa
to the philanthropic schemes evolved bv
his father: William Rockefeller's son.
Percy. Is an active, strenuous worker of
recognized ability. H. H. Rogers Is cred
ited with possessing, more than average
brain power, but he litis not so far con
vinced his associates that he 1s destined
to adequately fill the shoes of his father.
Thn young Kedfurris Hre noted for their
strict attention to business, and they sre
alreadv filling Important positions In va
rious departments. Hut. as alreadv stated,
the younger element, have not yet won
their spurs. Fortunately, their training
will fit them for compl vtng with modern
rules for conducilnw Klcantlc enterprises.
Inasmuch as they cannot but realize that
the age of unrestrained and unmerciful
tactics haa gone bv and that hereafter it
corporations' morals must be above re
proach. Portion of $100,000,00
