BAD BREAK
IN WHEAT
After Strong Opening Bulls
Are Panic Striker.

Large Proportions.
CORN AND OATS FOLLOW

Chicago, July 13.-Wheat. after strong
opening, ruled weak for the greater part
of the session and the close was at a
decline of 21zG24sc Corn, although show
ing some strength early, reflected the
weakness in wheat and closed with a
loss of 101lsc. Oats were down &C, and
provisions showed a loss of 2214@5Oc.
Firm cables caused strength in wheat
at the opening, but ii did not hold long.
September showed a gain of 1sG1Zc, at
1875 assoc the high point for the day, and
Immediately slumpes off on selling by
some of the large commission houses,
influenced by good growing weather
throughout the country and a bearish
construction placed upon tte government
report Local long holders followed the
lead and before the selling was over Sep
TENDER had touched 767sc. \ slightly bet
ter tone developed near the close, but
with small cash demand and increasing
receipts there was not much recovery.
and the close was weak, at 767s41Sc, a
net loss of 2l2q5sc. Primary receipts
were $4,000 bushels. against $3.50
decrease of 1,659,OO0 bushels. Clearances
of wheat and -four were equal to 1924
bushels. Minneapolis and Duluth re-
ported receipts of 2l6 cars. with local re-
ceipts of So cars-20 of contract grade.
There was considerable weakness in
corn, due to free selling by local traders
on reports of good weather and on the
easier cables. The opening on the early
strength in wheat was unchanged TO sc
higher, at 5l5sQ5124c. with a firm tone,
and at times there was fairly good sup
port TO the market, but in the face OF
the weakness in wheat a steady decline
took place, September selling down to
5012c, and closing weak. at 5O12Q505sc. a
loss of 1@11sc. Country offerings were
quite liberal. with bat little support.
The visible supply showed an increase
of 900 bushels. against an increase
of 1,251 900 bushels last week. Local re-
ceipts were 344 cars, 30 of contract grade.
Oats were lower. in sympathy with
corn and wheat, but there was some good
buying in futures and prices suffered
but little. The crop situation prevented
much selling and the cash demand was
light. September closed &c lower, after
ranging between 34lsc and 34%4d347sc the
opening figures. Local receipts were III
cars.
Local traders bought provisions on the
break. but the buying had little strength
ening influence. A big run of hogs and
lower prices at the yards caused a weak
market and the close showed a net loss
for September pork of SOC. at s1425, while
lard was down 271zc. al $751;. and ribs
221zG25c lower. at sS.3OQS.32l2. Stocks are
increasing and the demand shows little
Improvement.
Estimated receipts for tomorrow:
Wheat. SO cars; corn. 80 cars; oats, 290
cars; hogs. 5000 head.

three o'clock the king can generally
be seen on his way to the riding school
of ,nristiansborg castle, either alone
or accompanied by his grandsons. The
king is still the best hOrseman in the
land, and spends an hour or so every
day in horse exercise, and in instruct
ing his grandchildren in the accom-
plishment The royal family dine, ac-
cording to the continental fashion, at
six or half-past six o'clock. The roy
al dinner consists generally of four
courses and dessert, while the king
limits himself to one glass of claret
and one of port wine, champagne be-
ing unknown at the royal table except
on festive occasions.
After dinner conversation is indulg-
ed in for half an hour or SO. then at
half-past nine o'clock the family as

A visit to the stables to see that alls

CHURCH OF PRESIDENTS
IN WASHINGTON
New York Avenue Presbyterian
Church Will Observe One
Hundredth Anniversary.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Nov. 1.-THE
Church of the Presidents" as the
New York Avenue Presbyterian church
is known. because of the large number
of presidents who have wOrshipped
there, will observe its one hundredth
anniversary during the coming week.
There will be historical addresses by
men conspicuous in national affairs and
by ministers who hold high positions
in the organization of the Presbyterian
church of the United States.
The New York Avenue Presbyterian
church dates its origin from the orga-
church in 1903. The pastor of that
church was the Rev. Mr.. Lowrie, a
clerk in the treasury. In 1920 the sec
Ond Presbyterian church was OrganiZ-
ed. The congregation met in CORR
dor of the old navy department build
ing which was offered free of charge
FOR that purpose. Later the F. street
church and the Second church We're
consolidated into the New York Ave-
nue. Presbyterian church.
John Quincy Adams was identified
with the Second Presbyterian church,
and once rescued it from bankruptcy.
President Andrew Jackson attended
the Second church. and figured con-
.spicuously in the quarrel of the cOngre-
cation over Mrs. Eaton, Peggy o.
Neill," who had a staunch friend in
"Old Hickory" Among the other
presidents who attended the two older
churches and the New York Avenue
church were James K. Polk, Franklin
Pierce James Buchanan, Abraham
Lincoln and Andrew Johnson. The
pew occupied by Mr. Lincoln has never
been removed. 1t is small, of dark oak,
and it's old fashioned appearance is
in striking contrast with the other
modern appointments.
Among the distinguished men who
now worship at the New York Presby-
terrain church are Associate Justice
John M. Harlan of the supreme court
Secretary Wilson of the Agricultural
department, Senator German Of Mary
land, Senators Burrows and Alger Of
Michigan, Senator Blackburn of Ken
lucky, and other members of congress
and government officials.

who has suddenly Veered from her ia =
VOrite blue to the new russell brown.
Miss Roosevelt is very popular in
New York society and her unassuming
manner has won for her many friends.
Despite her strenuous life she has not
yet taken on the look of the older girls
of the smart set.
The opinion held by many that col
lege students love fun and college
games more than work is losing ground
every year. Few people really know
how hard many students work during
the vacation months to earn the tut
ton for their next term. A report just
issued by the Columbia students shows
that during the summer vacation this
year, Columbia boys earned total of
31,401.69. This is an increase Of over
$4,000 over last year. Almost every
from summer camp for boys to lect-
urer on English literature.
After all the great fire which re-
Gently destroyed the Bowery section of
Coney Island might prove a blessing.
The fimsy wooden structures there
were menace to the public safety and
| had the fire occurred in the summer
the loss would have been far greater.
Some of the owners of the three hun
dred structures swept away have al
ready begun new buildings on the old
sites, all of which are to be constructed
| of fireprOOf material A new cOrpOr-
alton known as the wonderland Com
pany" is planning an amusement pal
ace to rival the famous Lunch Park
which became famous the world over
last summer.
General Francis V. Greene, police
commissioner is being talked of as
head of the committee that will super
wise the construction of canals, pro-
| vded for in the bill for that purpose
and recently approved by popular vote
in this city. 1t is not likely, however
that any steps Will be taken in the
near future to put into effect the ca
nal enlargement. Indeed it is stated
on good authority that no bonds viii
be issued or work done before the
opening of the legisla ture in January
After that winter conditions would ir
any case delay work until next spring
The discovery that the channels il
New York harbor are being slowly but
surely blocked by the tons of dirt ant
refuse that are being dumped into the
water daily by scores of scows. Is no,
pleasing to the shipping people ant
residents Of New York. In the very

new YORK NOTES
In Spite of Strikes Many
New Buildings Appear
JEROME TO KEEP TOWN CLOSED
Coney Island Is 20 Have New Brick
Buildings in Place of Wooden
Shacks Burned.
JEROME TO KEEP TOWN CLOSED

NEW YORK, Nov. 14.-New York
has had troubles of its own in the
matter of getting up the buildings be-
cause of the strikes from which the
city has been suffering for the past
several months. Despite all this, how
ever. there are several improvements
under way that will. within the next
two or three years. add greatly to the
magnificence and Importance of the
city. Fashionable apartment and ten
ement house operations have been the
most pronounced feature of the build
ing activity since the settlement of the
strikes, but there are several elegant
new Office buildings in prospect, with
a few palatial private residences in
the fashionable districts and another
theatre or two yet.
Across the bridge millions of dol
lars are being spent at the Brooklyn
navy yard and within the next few
months a remarka bic change in the
Will be noticed. Among the improve
ments will be a new drydock which
Will cost s1.2O0.000 and which is ex-
pected to be the largest and best
equipped drydock in the country for
repairing battleships Although the
improvements will make possible the
more rapid construction of ships and
greatly facilitate repair work the fact
remains that the area of the yard is
entirely too limited for the growing
needs of the navy.
1t is doubtful if there is a buster
man in New York today than District
Attorney William Travers Jerome II
plans which he has on foot carry, any
impression that may have been form
ed that New York is to be a wide
open town after January l when Tam
many hall takes possession of the city
again may be removed immediately

side of the Tiger administration in
