sold up to call price, 661ac. The small
ceipts of new wheat at the principal re-
ceiving points in the west rendered bulls
confident, the disposition to buy being
strengthened also by the action of the
Liverpool market which opened unchang-
ed but soon advanced ed for September.
The weather throughout the west and
southwest was considered ideal for the
crop. Northwest receipts We're light, 361
cars against 100 last week and 497 a year
ago. On the bulge to 661Ac considerable
wheat was offered sale and a gradual
decline to 661s@66Ac took place.
CORN-There was q strong undertone
to corn but trading was small and f1uc-
tuations narrow. Wheat helped in the
firnness. Local receipts amounted to 1856
cars. September opened a shade higher

ton.

WILL TEST THEIR POWERS.
Railroad Commissioners to Find Out
What TIL ~ Are Here For.

The Kansas board of railroad COM
missioners have decided to test the law
under which the board was created in
reference to the power of fixing rates:
Commissioner William Campbell stated
today that the first proper complaint of
undue rates filed would be made test
case, by the board fixing the rates at
what they considered reasonable fig
ure and giving the railroads an oppor-
tunity to take the matter up
Il have been looking up the law"
said Commissioner Campbell today,
land I am of the opinion that it has
never been thoroughly and fully inter
preted. I have always been of the
opinion that it did not give the COM
missioners the power to fix rates, but
possibly Mr.. Turner is right when he
holds that it does. In any event, am
in favor of finding out just what it does
do, and you can safely say that the
next complaint of undue rates properly
filed in this office will be made a test
case. The board will adjust the rates
on a reasonable basis, and the railroads
will then have the chance to take the
matter up if they so desire"
