Enormous Demana for rransportatiou for the
VESTS Great wheat Crop

CHICAGO, Aug. ll.-Railroad officials arc
making preparations to meet the greatest de-
mands upon them ever known In the history OF
the country in the shipment OF the Vests great
grain crop. Empty cars are being collected from
every possible quarter and sent as rapidly as
possible toward the places in the West where
they will be available TO receive the crops and
take them toward the seaboard. Many OF the
greater roads are having new cars built as
rapidly as possible. and others have borrowed
large numbers from those roads which are
likely TO have less demand for them.
The Western trunk lines thus far have hired
$4,000 cars here TO be sent into grain territory.
OF this number the Illinois Central and the Bur
lington and Northern In Iowa and Nebraska lead
with 10000 cars each. The Rock Island has
secured 10000; the Santa Fe, in Kansas. ZOO;
the 81. Paul. in Minnesota and Wisconsin. 5000,
and the in Minnesota and Dakota,

The Alton has hired 1000 and the Chicago

A despatch from Indianapolis says that every
one OF the fifteen railroads centring there Is
face to face with a car famine. Last week these
roads handled nearly 20, 900 cars. and this week
that number will be pas-ei. Only one thing

FoBr WAYNE, Aug. 11.-George Ketcham I'M
covered the sensation OF the season to-day in Cres-
ceus, the three-yearold chestnut colt BY Robert
McGregor-Mabel. He started in the 2:17 trot
with aged horses and in three of tive heats yester-
day finished second. The race went over until to-
day. when Cresceus won the sixth. seventh. and
eighth heats in 2:12k, 2:l1k, and 2:l1S, equal
ling Directum's three-yearold record. He is en-.
tered in the big stakes at Resdville and SYRIA
cuse, and can easily beat 2:1o.
The first race on the regular programme was
the 2:lo trot, with Senator A. a big favorite.
He was lame and had to be satisfied with third
money. Dandy Jim won the irst two heats, and
then Pilot Boy went ahead and won the
race after Page had been drawn. Newton W.
and Claus Forester were equal favorites in the
2:l5 pace but Palmyra Boy, a black Eelding By
Bratton, had the speed OF the party and won in
straight heats, Elloree had no trouble in win
ming the 2:l2 trot, Cephas being the contending

oUGHKEEPsIE, Aug. 11.-Interest was added
to the second day OF the Breeders Association
meeting at the Hudson River Driving Park by
fast exhibition miles paced BY John r. Gentry
and Robert J.. with running mates. The track
was slow. and nobody expected 10 see the track
record OF 2:o52. made by Mascot, broken. 1t
was therefore a genuine surprise when John r.
Gentry knocked three SECONDS OF OF it, going
the mile in 2:o2l2. The fractions were o:3lk.
LOLA, 1:3-a. This Is the fastest mile paced by
Gentry this season. When Bovine turned Gen
try around after the heat and drove up in front
OF the grand stand 5000 spectators went wild
with enthusiasm. and round after round OF cheers
were given to horse and driver. John :. Clark,
who bred Gentry's dam, made the time a quar-
ter OF a seCoud slower. He said that taking into
consideration the condition OF the track. which
had been rained on for two days, IL was the
greatest performance ever accomplished by John
r. Gentry or any other horse. Driver Bovine
stated that on the backstretch the track was
cuppy and wet n half a dozen places, while on
the homestretch there was 4 bad spot. But for
these GentTy's time would have been 200 or
better.

ST. LOUIS HE4 SPECTATORS
The Biggest Price or the season and the Largest
safes for Months

ST. LOUIS, Aug. 1.-THE Merchants Exchange
was a scene OF wild excitement: to-day when
wheat reached s6La cents a bushe!, breaking
al records for the season. The wheat pit was
crowded with all the big operators when the
sensational bulge came and p~andemonium
reigned for a while. The shorts, rushing to
cover tranticaly. tried to hedge their losses by
buying wheat, but there seemed TO be none for
sale. II looked as though the big st. Louis
pool had cornered the market and was ON
p!acently watching the price 90 up.
There were ten buyers 10 every seller and it
was observed that the rrms which were report
ed TO be in the pool were all heavy buyers. They
bought all in sight and kept bidding for more
until the bears gave up in despair. In all = .29O,-
oOo bushels changed hands. This is the largest
transfer in months, and most OF the trading was
in september wheat.
II is said that the grain operators, led by ex-
Secretary OF the Interior Francis. are now mil
lions OF dollars ahead OF the game. Although
they are not saying much about their profits:
their operations are even larger than those Of
last year. by which the st. Louis pool cleared
between 81, Ooo, 900 and 81. 900, 900 by a rise Of
about 80 cents a bushel.
The market closed hrm to-day at s6is. nearly
8 cents above yesterdays dnL quotation.
Prominent grain men attribute the big bulge to
the fact that the worlds wheat crop IS short and
foreigners are buying to d.! the demand across
the DaeAl.
