IMMACULATE HEART
COMMENCEMENT EXERCISES
.:T'' HELD YESTERDAY
Long Literary and Musical Program
Tendered by the Boy and
I. Girl Students

The eighth announcement ex-
ercises Of the Immaculate Heart con-
vent, Pico Heights, was held yesterday
afternoon in the large assembly
hall of the institution, which is
equipped with a stage, and was
elaborately decorated for the occa-
ison. Date and fan palm branches, pep
fectively about. The supporting posts
were wound with large ropes made of
the pepper greens and garlands of flow
ers; the front of the stage was covered
with fan palms and overhead were strips
of light blue bunting against which the
delicate green of the pepper showed to
good advantage. About the hall on ca
sells and on the walls were Oil paintings
of sacred subjects, landscapes and flow
ers. The windows were all banked and
curtained with pepper branches and
large flags and banners added their bril-
liancy to the general color scheme. Nuns
in their sombre garbs fitted noiselessly
about in striking contrast to the schol-
ars who took part in the program and
who were dressed in frocks of dainty
colors and textures.

What Was Done Yesterday on Wall
Street

Street
NEW YORK, June 2S.-Today was an
other day of marked strength in the mar
ket for stocks, the dealings being large
and the buying demand keen, so that the
tendency Of prices was strongly upward.
Ihere were ups and downs during the
day. the latter on profit taking for the most
part. but the close of the days trading
found prices generally above last night s
close. The outside interest in the market
shows large increase and commission
houses report great accession of orders
of speculative character following the
solid investment buying that has been GO
ing on for some time and which today's
developments indicate is still going on.
The buying was almost wholly result of
the confidence in the general outlook for
business. There was little news accom-
panying the upward movement of prices.
and therefore little to record beyond the
mere change in prices. The grangers were
all IN Keen demand and showed a SUBJ
stantial gain on the day. The same was
true OF all western and southwestern rail-
road properties, where the crops promise
to be abundant and bring business i'm
provement all through those sections
Sugar and Chicago Gas were both under
pressure at different times during the day
and held back the market When these
two stocks came into harmony with the
market ana moved upward the high prices
OF the day We're recorded for many stocks
The announcement of an additional shin
ment OF S65O,00O In gold by tomorrow's s
steamer only affected the market for
nriet time. Sugar moved over range of
l1s put closed u off on the day. The bond
market showed no abatement of the de-
cided strength that has characterized its
operations for some time. The aggregate
sales were $6,9S4.000. Governments were
neglected at the board. but bid quotations
were slightly higher.

The stock markets remain inactive. but
strong and hopeful, and especially as re-
garded Americans on the steadysupport in
New York. The feeling in Americans Is
very bullish and something decidedly
averse will have to occur to prevent at
least further moderate rise. Other mar
kets were coed, notably Kaffirs. which, to-
yether with Americans, are being quietly
bought by large investors. A feature Is the
strong demand for India council drafts,
700 lakhs bein gapplied for today. The

CHICAGO MARKET
Yesterdays Transactions on the Board
Of Trade

CHICAGO, June 23.-Wheat had strong
opening. The possibility of squeeze in
July had been further stirred up since the
close yesterday by a report that in addition
TO the transfer of 100000 bushels long
wheat which had been explained as simply
evening UP transactions. one or two houses
had similarly turned over to Armour & Co.
contracts for long July wheat of like
amount. The traders were allowed to
draw their own conclusions from such
unusual proceedings, and their object was
generally accepted as boding no good to
the shorts In July wheat. July opened at
6S7s, compared with yesterdays closing
price of 6Sls, and almost Immediately sold
to 69b. Then a reaction to 6S5s occurred.
There were still some traders who were
not affected by the fears of Corner"
and who had the courage to sell short on
the bulge. The market, however, was
naturally too strong to be affected very
long. and as soon as the selling ceased
prices rebounded to 69%. The North
western receipts were only 179 cars. against
81 a year ago. Late cables from Liverpool
reported recovery of the opening Nd de-
cline, which was probably caused by the
advance at Chicago. On the other hand
the news from California was bearish
Cutting had commenced there and the
yield and quality were both declared salts
factory, one dispatch from San Francisco
claiming the condition to ,be 80, instead of
i3 as given in the last government report
Washington and Oregon were also claimed
to be giving fine promise owing to recent
favorable weather so fine, in fact, as to
indicate heavier yield than they had ever
had before Export cearances of wheat
and flour were equal in wheat and flour to
295, coo bushels. The market gradually
worked down to 6S%. but took a sudden
squirt before the close to 69A. The closing
price was 691A. Corn was rather heavy
because of the favorable weather for the
crop. Oats were easy with corn. In pro-
visions lard led the market. The open
ng was firm and the close was higher all
around,
