were number of strengthening items in
the early news, the most important of
which was an Argentine cablegram report
ing rains over considerable part Of the
wheat area. Armour representatives in
the Chicago pit bid for some round lots
IN the early part Of the session, and this
evidence of Armour's support scared the
shorts badly. May wheat opened here
at 77A@773sc. and on profit taking sales
and selling by scalping shorts for a quick
down turn, the market broke to 1871 %

of underlying strength the pit shorts got
nervous and put May to 773s 0771kc in a
twinkling on the covering Of what was a
very moderate quantity. After this there
were few in the local pit who dared take
the short side and the only pressure for a
longs, who had good profits and wanted
to take them In. The market was in
clined to hold firm, but on a break in
Chicago May, the local crowd turned sell
erS and the decline carried May off to
1850, shaking out some weak longs. But
the tendency towards higher prices was
evident in the face of the break and re-
covery followed on the first renewal of
buying. Lohrke, the big New York ex-
porter threw some additional strength to

Japan's China Bank.

Japan, though remote has no need to
empha tically not slow. A cable dispatch
announces that the government of the
island empire has introduced a bill es-
tablishing China and japan bank for
the purpose of financing Japanese enter
prises in China. The capital of the con-
Germ is to be 20,0o00O0 yen, of which the
government is to contribute a little less
than a third. The charter Of the bank is
for fifty years, and branches of the bank
abroad will accept deposits at compound
interest and will issue premium bearing
bonds. The statesmen of Japan are
wise in their generation.-Brad

in the central region, but are small in the
southeast and extreme southwest. Lack
of railway transportation still hampers
the movement Of wheat to market.
When Chicago May sold at 7SAc and
Minneapolis May at 775sc, both markets
were at the highest points of the present
option. Minneapolis passed her former
record Thursday and Chicago followed
yesterday. At TIC Chicago May was
exactly SC under the closing figure of the
corresponding day last year, which the
bulls are using for an important argument.
They maintain that conditions this year
are much more bulliSh than last year, the
strength then coming principally from
corn while this year the strength lies in
the wheat situation proper They con-
tend that conditions are such that wheat
ought to hold a higher level than at this
time last year. whereas Minneapolis a
year ago was about even with the present
prices, while in Chicago May wheat year
ago yesterday closed at S0Ac.
The close was very strong and at high
and January at 771sc. Good demand ruled
again for cash wheat and it was a repeti-
ton of Thursdays market. Buying Of
choice milling wheat to arrive was on a
early and as high as 78c later. All prices
covered wider ranges in line with the ac-
tive changing option.

Rock Island, Morgan and Erie.

There is faith in the rumors also of a
desire on the part of Wabash or Rock ISL
and, or both. to secure an Atlantic out
let by the Erie. J. P. Morgan's testi-
! mony yesterday in the inquiry into the
| Louisville transfer was seen to express
| a severe prejudice against the practice
| OF buying up railroads over night and to
| show a Partially for the extension of
| voting trusts for the insurance of control
But MIR. Morgan has demonstrated in the
case of Northern Pacific that he will
adopt extreme measures to prevent the
wrestling of control from him of a prop
| erty by the overnight class of purchas-
| ers. Whether the recent great activity
| in Erie represented a contest against such
sudden passing of control from the
dominant Morgan interest or whether the
process of parcelling out Of the property
as in the case of Reading, are two posi-
BILE contingencies that present themselves
to the conjectures of Wall street.
There is every probability Of a very
strong bank statement tomorrow, as the
