Still higher prices were reached In the market for coffee fu tures today on reports of a more active demand from importers in the cost and freight market and a continuation of Eu ropean buying. Reports that Germany waa planning to continue the use of cof fee substitutes owing to the difficulty of importing under prevailing financial condi tions, seemed to attract little or no com ment, but th'e advance met considerable realizing and fluctuations were irregular. The opening was 6 to 11 points higher, with July contracts selling at 18.60c and December at 17.48c In the early trading. Reactions during the middle of the day were followed by bulges and the cloae wa steady at a net decline of 12 points on May, but generally 8 to 16 points net higher.

One of the eeverest breaks ever witnessed In the corn market took place today as a result of definite notice that the United States government would import wheat from Canada and that a downward revision of the cost of foodstuffs was looked for. In a few minutes, the price of corn shriveled 12 cents a bushel. Violent reactions, how ever, ensued. The market closed excited at 3 to 4 cents net decline, with July, (1.6541.65, and September. (1.60 1.60. Oats, 1 to 2 centa down, and provisions varying from 12 cent off to 5 cents advance. First reports about Intentions of the United States government regarding Can adian wheat were exaggerated, and to this fact was largely due the steep descent of the corn market, as well as the big re bound. The rumors which preceded au thoritative advices were to the effect that all Imports restriction on Canadian wheat Into the United states naa Deen tanen orr. Instantly, prices of corn began to drop a cent at a time, automatic stop-loss sell ing orders came Into play on a huge scale. and at the same time all support was tem porarily paralyzed. Then, the tmtn be came better known that only a moderate importation of wheat from Canada had been arranged for, and that no radical revision of foodstuffs prices was expected at present. Before the Benaatioral col lapse, the corn market, mnuencea by con tinued weather, which made both hauling and planting nearly impossible, had soared to the highest prices yet tnis season. Oats were swayed entirely by the wild fluctuations of corn. In the face of the sensational downturn of grain, provisions held relatively firm in line with the hog market. All of the day'a advances In packing house prod ucts, however, were virtually wiped out. FINANCIAL New York, Msy 5. The relatively mod erate session of the stock exchange to day moderate In the sense that recent spectacular elements were lacking was primarily due to tomorrow's recess In honor of the parade of-the 77th division. jTrading again attained the broad pro portion of the past three weeks, but selling for profit waa effective to the extent that some erstwhile favorite were Irregular or distinctly heavy. Standard or dividend paying transporta tions war active and strong, their ad vance being predicted on the belief that the forthcoming session of congress is quite certain to enact remedial or relief legislation. Canadian Pacific, which Is not directly concerned with event at Washington, led the rails for a while at an extreme ad vance of almost five points, part of which were later canceled. Delaware. Lackawanna and Western, most closely held of all the gilt-edged rails, gained 17 points and other coalers and cotton carriers, notably Delaware and Hudson, Norfolk and Western, Atlantic Coast Line and Louisville and Nashville, rose two to five points. The Inquiry for secondary rails abated somewhat, but ad vances of one to two points were nu merous In that division. St. Louis and San Francisco, St. Louis Southwestern and Pittsburgh aad West Virginia leading at one to three polnta. Oils, equipments, shippings and food shares were represented by Texas cohi pany.

Daniels Commends Crew of Destroyer 'Shaw for Courage Washington, May IS. Secretary Daniels has commended 17 members of the crew of the destroyer Shaw for their courage and' devotion to duty at the time of the collision be tween their vessel and tHe Cunrad liner Aquitania last October 9, near the English coast. Two officers and 10 men lost their lives in the acci dent. The Shaw was convoying the Aquitania, and was zig-zagging, as usual, when its steering gear be came disabled. Had it followed its course it probably would have ram med and sunk the Aquitania. Its commanding officer ' ordered full speed astern and thus so changed the Shaw's course as to bring it under the bow of the huge troop ship. Ninety feet of the Shaw's bow was carried away in the collision, but in spite of this, picked men of the crew got the vessel to port with out assistance, but not until the men repeatedly faced death in fighting the ship's magazine. Led by the destroyer Kimberly, the Shaw made Portland. England, under its own steam, although the floor of the engine room was flooded and there was a huge hole in the fire room just aft of where the de stroyer had been cut in two.
