THE CENTRAL AND U4NH4TT4N
RUMORS OF GREAT THINGS IN THE TRAC-
TIoN FIELD STARTED BY RISE
IN STOCKS

New-York Central and Manhattan were again
yesterday the most conspicuous stocks in the
list and both closed with fractional net gains
after having made important advances earlier
in the day. AS naturally TO be expected
rurnors were current OF close relations between
the two companies. the most widely circulated
report being that arrangement was about
TO be announced by which the Manhattan would
handle a large part of the Centrars present
suburban traffic. thus making it possible to les
sen the number of trains entering and leaving
the Grand Central Station, and by so much 70
relieve the congestion of traffic at the Forty
second-st. terminal. No corroboration of these
reports could be obtained. and they were not
generally credited.
AS for New-York Central the belief grows
that the coming development will prove to be
the formation of a proprietary company, to take
over control of the so called Junior Wander
bits, and perhaps with them the Lake Shore
and the Michigan Central: and the distribution
in some form of the enormous surplus of the
Lake Shore of which road the NewYork Cen

THE NEWS In IOWA
NATIONS GRAIN DEALERS.
The Convention at Des Moines Was
Very Profitable One.

The Convention at Des MOnes Was .
Very Profitable One.
Des Moines, Oct 4.-The sixth an
nual convention of the National
Grain Dealers association came to
an end yesterday. The convention
was the best in the history of the
organization. Members of the Cere-
al club, upon whom devolyed the care
of the visiting delegates, were re-
peatedly congratulating by the visit
ors, who expressed themselves as
agreeably surprised at the manner
in which the convention had been
entertained.
The convention did much for Des
Moines and Iowa. b. A. Lockwood,
a Des Moines man, was reelected
president in recognition of his SER
vices in behalf of the organization.
The state has leen benefited, in that
all of the southern delegates were
here for the purpose of perfecting ar
rangements with Iowa grain men for
the shipment of oats and hay to the
south, which produced little hay or
corn this year. 1t is expected that
these two commodities will reach a
high price because of the great de-
mand for them in the south. Iowa
is also honored in the selection of
&. A. Stebbins of Red Oak as secre-
tary of the association. c. 5. Clark
of Chicago was reelected to the sec
retaryship, but declined, owing to
private interests.
The convention has resulted in n
better understanding as to the grad
ing of grain and has shown Iowa
grain men how their samples compare
with the best from other sectios of
the country. Another outcome was
the organization of a national asso-
citation of grain inspectors.
Memphis won the convention of
1902 mainly on the proposition that
hundreds of grain men from the
south would become affiliated with
the association if they could be in
duced to attend one of the conven-
tons. Officers were elected as fol-
lows: President. Il. A. Lockwood;
first vice president, r. p. Baxter; sec
ond vice president, II. S. Grimes; sec
rotary, G. A. Stibbins.
