Chicago, Aug. 11. Crop damage reporta
cauaed much excitement today tn the grain
market and wheat prloea had an upturn of
from 7c to IVjc from the low point of the
day, elbelng a little off from oho high point
. at a net advance of IHtVtHc, with Decem
ber cluing. at 11.41 and September at
11.41.
. Corn flnlahed at an advance of c to
01c and oata c higher. Provlalon fln
lahed Btrong letlo higher. The aanaa
tlonal advance ta wheat prlcee came well
along In the aeaaion, after selling Induced
anirently by the break tn Liverpool had
carried the market well below yeaterday'
Oloalng figure, wop damage reporta giv
ing dtacouragmg new from the Canadian
and northweet field aent the prlcee away
from the tow levele. '
The flrat bulliah report of the day waa
from a crap expert who Inalated that hla

chase rematalng almoet conatant to the
cloae of the seaeton.
Uocal ceah aalea totalled 101.0O0 bttehelf of
wheat, of which 100,000 buehel wa cred
ited to exporten. Export demand, evinced
by a report from Omaha that 60,000 bushele
of wheat had been aold there for the tea
board at IHe over the Chicago September
prtoe, waa a controlling factor after the
advance began. December aold from Il.ll to
1.41, while September aold from Il.ll to

Hog With more moderate receipts at
several other points a general reaction
from the two days' slump waa In order.
Local shipper buyera fitted their orders
at prfcee that were all of 10100 and in
moat lnetancaa fully lOo higher. Packers
were able to get a tew hoga at the start
that were barely le higher, but later on
bought droves a flat lOe higher, moat of
their hogs costing anyway tOlto mora
than on Monday.
Closing rounds were weak at early price,
moat of the advance being tost. Receipts
overran early estimate, and packer droves
were pretty well filled out before a clear
ance was made, buyera getting a pretty
good kind of hog late at figures that were
eteady to riot, over to higher than yes
terday. General market, which averaged I
OlOo higher than yesterday, waa a hamp
becked affe.tr. opening lOlOo higher, then
becoming fully loo higher at the beet time
and closing with meet of the advance wiped
out. Bulk of the hoga waa purchased at a
spread of tl.00OI.7l. with a good ehowlng
on up, the top reaching $10.10. Hogs are
still selling ltd) lOo below Friday, the high
day of the yeer, but the market la now
a flat l(c higher than at the open'ng of
Auguot and 7vo above the low time twelve
daya ago, when average eoat dropped under
It.eo for tne first time since Maroh.

Sheep Sheep and lamb eupplles were
about tne same else as Monday's flftv-nve
cars, or about ll.Ooo head, being reportedi
in. Tne total for the week to date of 30.414
Is 1,000 head smaller than a week ago,
about the earn also as two weeks ago and
13,000 snort of last year.
The market braced up today after hav
ing been steadily dropping for a solid week.
General quality of the offerings was not aa
good aa yeaterday, recelpta running more
largely to feeders, and while on paper the
prlcee paid for trie bulk of fat lambe did
not show up quite bo well as yeaterday,
the market ws called fully steady to, If
anything, stronger. A spread of 110.3(0
10.41 bought quite a few Wyomtna-e and
Nevadas, with Idahos and beat Wyomlnga
on up to 110.00.
Before the close as much aa lOo higher
was paid for fat lambs. A band of good
Idahos reached 110.70, the extreme top
for the day, and 10c above yeeterday, and
considering sorts some of the In-between
kinds were If anything a little higher.
Bulk of the ewes again went for feed
ers and breeders, snd packers found the
picking mighty slim. They paid, steady to
etrong prices for the few they did get, giv
ing aa high aa 10.10 for a few head, and
ll.il for loads.
The feeder trade opened brlak. More
feeders wsre here than on any ope previous
day thla aeaoon, but demand waa also
brosd.

STEEL HAKES Bid GAIN
New Tork, Aug, IS.- Several Important
facton added appreciably to the ecope and
strength of today's aevalon. Cbtef anfrmr
theie were, the lncreaelnv optlmlem shown
In high quarters recardlnc the railway
labor negotiations and the Imminence of
the new British loan, which la expected to
relieve the local market of recurrent fears
of foreign liquidations.
Ralls and Investment issues generally
responded freely to a wide demand and
specialties of virtually all descriptions
scored substantial gains, under lead of the
automobile shares, which made Immediate
response to the declaration of Initial divi
dends on Maxwell common and second pre
ferred.
Another factof of sentimental value was
United States Steel, which rose 1 points
to 99 A. Its hlshest quotation since lata
year, and within striking distance of itn
best price snice 1910. Steel and Reading
overshadowed all other stocks In point of
activity, buying of the latter being again
of an Impressive character at an extreme
gain of 2 tt points, which was partly
shaded In the profit taking movement of
the final hour.
Canadian Pacific and Union- Pacific reg'
istered marked gains, the latter Incident'
ally issuing Its preliminary statement for
the fiscal year, snowing a net increase or
almost lit 000,000. Norfolk & Weitern,
New Haven, and Nlckle Plate featured the
other rails.
Munitions derived much of their strength
from Bethlehem Steel, which Increased Its
recent gain by 10 points, with tor the
oreferred. Oulf State Steel common and
second preferred registered averago galne
of 4 points, Crucible and Lackawanna ad
vanced I and I, and equipments, with few
exceptions, made similar Improvements.
The shipping group was consistently strong.
with new high records for Atlantic, uuu,
and West Indies at 68, and Mercantile
Marine oommen at 29.
Total sales of stocks amounted to 670,
000 shares.
Exchange on London was dull, with
another lam imoort ef sold from that
center. Remittances to Berlin and Vienna
Bonds were steady, with a very large
proportion of the dealings llmlteti to Anglo
French Gs, and the new French notes at
unchanged quoatlona. Total sales of bonds,
par value, fE,S8S,000. .
United States bonds wore unchanged on
call, but the coupon 4s lost per cent

No Guess Work by Uncle Sam in
Measuring the Depth of Rain,,
A skeptic came into the United
States weather bureau and spoke to
Colonel Welsh, saying:
"It's guess work telling how much
rainfall there is when it's only about
one one-hundredth of an inch, isn't
it? Y' can't measure one-one hun
dredth of an inch of rain."
Colonel Welsh fixed the doubting
Thomas with baleful look. Then he
led him Up the narrow staircase to the
roof of the federal building and
showed him the ingenious but simple
mechanism that measures the rain
fall. On each end of a little "see-saw"
about six inches long is' a tiny
"bucket" about half as big as a spool
of thread. One of these buckets isJ
always up and the other down.
The mechinism is delicately ad
justed and when the "up" bucket has
one-one hundredth of an inch ot ram
in it, it goes down and at the same
time tips the water out.
As it goes down it works an elec
tric contact that records .01 of an inch
of rain. When the opposite bucket
gets its .01 of an inch, it goes down
and so on.
"This is the best device for measur
ing rain except in freezing weather,";
said Colonel Welsh. "In freezing
weather we use this old measuring
stick device. It consists of a funnel,
eight inches in diameter at the top,
which empties into a tube 2.56 inches
in diameter. The area of this funnel
top is precisely ten times that of the
tube. So, when there is .10 of an inch
of water in the tube we know that .01
of an inch of rain has fallen."
There is still another device, used
for a long time at the local station
which registers the rainfall automati
cally by weighing the water.
The colonel led the ex-skeptic down
the narrow staircase from the roof of
the federal building,
weather bureau," he said with dignity
as he bowed his visitor out.
In Dangerous Condition
From the Loss of Blood
Jack Sheolar. a roomer in flat 10.
at 1325 Chicago street, is inSt. Jo
seph's hospital in a dangerous1 condi
tion from loss of blood and. shock
as the result of a fight with a negro,
Wallace Cay.
Shepler said that Cay and a white
man came to his room shortly before
noon and wanted to enter, but he
drove them out Soon they returned,
the white man armed with a brick,
and Cay with a knife. In the strug
gle which followed Shepler received
serious knife wounds in the left
breast, the right side and on the right
arm.
The two men got away, but Cay
was arrested by Detectives Dolan and
L.ahy and charged with intent to kill.
Police Surgeon Meyers, who attended

cover, but is very weak from loss of
blood.
