Galveston, Texas, November u There
viii he an immense quantity Of corn ex-
ported from Galveston this season. The
movement cnn not be compared with that
of last year for the reason that there was
no corn exported from Galveston last year.
This season, however, promises to be a
record breaker over any past season, and
had It not been for the failure OF the corn

OF the port would have been taxed TO

shipped from Galveston to every port In
the United Kingdom and the continent this
season, AMI thousands of do,lIrs OF En-
ropcan money will be sent to the United
States in exchange for this valuable staple
The price Is not MS high rs 1t was this time
last year by about 10 or l. cents per
bushel, but this Is offset hundred times
over by the enormous crop raised I'm the

there was an extremely small crop.

100 pounds on single railroad lines and Is
cents rer 100 pounds on Joint lines This
Is decided reduction on the old rates and

railroads. Texas dealers nre row placed on
nm equal footing with the grsin producers
OF Illinois, Ohio and other Middle Western

A local grain dealer remarked yesterday
that there would no wheat IN Texas this
year and consequently the decision Of the
railroad commission was OF vital lmpof-
