Chicago Grain and Provisions.
Chicago, April 14. Record-breaking
high prices for provisions, together with
wet weather that retarded the crop move
ment, brought about a decided bulge to
day in the corn market. Corn closed strong
at 1 to 2c net advance, with May,
!1.601.601i and July, 11.63 1.63.
Oats gained to lc. In provisions
there was a rise of 67c to 12.80.
Activity as well as higher prices char
acterized the corn market and short cov
ering toward the last forced a more rapid
upturn than any which had preceded. It
was at this time that the soaring of pro.
vision values attracted special notice as
a bullish Influence on corn. Earlier tn
the day wet weather was the chief
strengthening factor, emphasized by the
circumstance here today that receipts were
not liberal as expected. A cablegram from
a Chicago trade authority that this fall
Europe would be threatened with a deluge
Instead of a dearth of supplies was more
than offset by, announcement that six
additional vessel had been assigned today
to transport foodstuffs to Europe, from
the United States.
Delay to seeding lifted oats.
Urgent export demand was said to ac
count for the big Jumps In provisions.
The greatest pressure was for May de
livery of pork' and lard.

FINANCIAL
New Tork. April 14. Speculative In
terest In the stock market today was
visibly stimulated by the publication of
the of f Ii ia I details of the coming Victory
loan, the smaller volume of that project
and the attractive interest rate meeting
with general approvement.
There were intervals of hesitancy, due
mainly 'to realizing for profits, prompted
by uncertainty respecting the trend of the
ptace conierence Dut tne rise was tuny
sustained, moderate reaction being off
set by additional gains tn the several
groups of specialties.'
Ralls and coopers were the only ex
ceptions foiling to share more than
nominally in the sweeping and substantial
movement. Heaviness of St. Paul issue
acted as a drag on the entire transporta
tion division.
Fully half the day's trading centered
around three groups motors, oil and
shippings, while a goodly percentage of
the other dealings represented equipments
and food and fertilizer shares.
Pronounced features of strength Included
Atlantio Gulf at a net advance of 7
points; American International which re
covered almost half of last week's set
back on its rally of 5 points; General
Motors 7 5i and Associated drygoods al
most 6 points, the latter reacting.
Other elements of strength embraced
Sinclair nil. the most active Issue, at a
gain of -four points: American sugar, 1;
American cotton oil, 3, and sundry spe
cialties 2 to 3 points.
United States steel made an extreme
advance of 1 to 99, easing slightly
witn Kindred issues In tne further profit
taking at the close. Sales amounted to
1,100,000 shares.
Liberty bonds, excepting 8s, strength
ened at first, but reacted slightly later;
other domestics were steady and interna
tionals firm. Total sales (par value) ag
gregated 117,875,000. Old U. S. bonds
were unchanged on call.

Ask Supreme Court to
Expedite Appeals In
Railroad Rate Cases
Washington, April 14. The su
preme court was asked in a motion
filed today by the government to
expedite consideration of the appeals
brought by the railroad administra
tion from North Dakota supreme
court opinions restraining Director
General Hines from increasing
freight and passenger rates in that
state under an order placed into
effect last June. The motion was
concurred In by the North Dakota
state authorities.
"The case," said the government's
brief, "presents the question of the
authority of the director general to
increase or to interfere with rates,
fares or charges established by a
state law or by the order of a stat
regulating tribunal. The supreme
court of North Dakota has decided
against the authority claimed. Sim
ilar suits involving the same ques
tion are now pending in the courts
of South Dakota, Nebraska, Iowa,
Minnesota and Washington, and
other suits of like nature are threat
ened in various other states of the
union.
"Infinite confusion and uncertain
ty must attend the operation of the
railroads by the government so long
as this question remains unsettled
and the state courts assert the right
to enjoin the collection by the di
rector general of rates prescribed
by him."

mals," said Mr. Bradley. '
Supt. J. H. Beveridge of the pub
lic schools is in sympathy with the
movement and he intends to help
make "Kindness to Animals" week
a success.

cently taken over the work of car
ing for dogs and the city pound.
