New York Coffee.
New York, May 6. 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. May, 18.63c; July, 18.58c; Sep

Chicago (irain.
Chicago, May 6. 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.

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

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.

To Have Attempted to
"Beat Up" Attorney
Following the trial of Joe Aber
crombie, negro" porter at' the Ed
wards hotel, yesterday in pol'cs
court on a charge of bootlegging,
State Agents Smith, Vogel and
Bunker, who testified against the ne
gro, attempted, it is said, to carry
out a plan, to "beat up" Attorney1 W.
M. Jamieson, who defended the
prisoner.
"Pop him in the eye," Bunker
was heard to remark to Smith as the
attorney entered the police clerk's
office after the negro was fined $100
and costs. ,
The state agents are alleged to
have made a rush at Jamieson, when
Attorney Harry Fleharty interfer
ed and prevented a fight. Attorney
Jamieson declared he would file
against the state agents this after
noon for attempting to provoke an
assault.
The tate agents admitted on the
witness stand that they took whisky
to the Edwards hotel and made the
negro porter drunk, after which they
prevailed on him to go out and ob
tain another, pint. When Aber
crombie returned with the liquor he
was placed under arrest a.id charged
with the illegal possession of intoxi
cating liquor. ' ,

Facts About Oil
Investments
How do the old school oil men play the game?
By acquiring leases at low prices, close to drilling
test wells in geological approved territory, and when oil
is struck make fabulous returns on the investment. This
same opportunity is now open to you by
THE J. C. YANCEY INTERESTS
who control thousands of acres in the Steohensville
District, Erath County, Texas, and who are now drilling
a deep test well. The Yancey Interests now gives you
a chance to do what these big, brainy, successful men
have done, and with the speculative features reduced to
a minimum.
, This is not a stock selling or promotion enterprise,
but an opportunity to secure an interest in leases on geo
logical approved structure at inside prices.
SYNDICATE BEING FORMED
A Syndicate is now being formed in Omaha for the
purpose of acquiring a block of this acreage. Several
well-known citizens, after thorough investigation, have
already subscribed. This proposition is worthy of your
investigation and consideration.
The units of subscription are ?100.00 and multiples
thereof.
, Full particulars regarding this development or any
other information pertaining to the Texas Oil Fields
will be gladly given by
THE J. C. YANCEY INTERESTS
Representative.
