WHEAT
MARKET
EXCITED

Chicago. Aug. B-A nervous crowd OF
interested spectators waited the tap OF
the opening bell today on the Board OF
Trade. as eager TO sell wheat as on the
previous day they had been TO buy.
The price suffered decline at the mo-
ment OF opening. ranging from one cent
to about three cents a bushel. Later
prices had a sudden rebound and May
wheat which sold down TO 10SA at the
start, jumped up again TO liz
The reason for the change Of sentiment
among the traders over night, as shown
In the early trading was the failure of
the weather bureaus forecast OF possible
frost In the spring wheat country 10
come true. AS the price OF wheat since
the middle OF June last has advanced 30
cents a bushel, there were naturally num-
bers OF traders who had made handsome
profits and the wheat they had been buy
ing constantly since then was the wheat
that was for sale as soon as the market
opened today.
Hardly had the wheat owners got rid OF
their grain, when IT was reported from
Winnipeg that the rust that had ruined
the crops OF Minnesota and the Dakotas
was at work in the British northwest and
threatened that part OF the country with
n similar calamity.
How immense Is the interest taken In
the grain market by people OF all sections
may be Judged by the fact that one Chi
cago commission house bought and sold
for customers. 100000 bushels OF the va
rious kinds OF grain yesterday. and other
large houses sold from 100000 TO TO-
coo 600 bushels each.
SHIFTING AT NEW YORK.
New York. Aug. 1s-There was a gem
eral shifting around or the speculative
position In wheat today on a violent open
Ing break In the local market OF three
cents a bushel. Many big houses took
their profits and turned their loads over
to a fresh set OF buls, who stood ready
on such break 10 assume the burden.
The result was an equally rapid re-
covery OF the financial loss. so that by
IL o'clock prices everywhere had re-
gained about all OF their loss. This in
turn yielded TO a midday break that car
ried active positions back again TO within
cent OF their low prices.
THE LoNQoN MARKET.
London, Aug. lS'-The condition OF the
American wheat market causes little
effect on the produce exchange. No ex-
element prevails.

SCHOOL FUND
APPORT|ONMENT
Largest Amount Ever Received
From State for This County
just Here

County Treasurer Hastings has re-
ceived the semi-annual apportionment
from the state Of the general school
fund. The amount received for Nex
Perez county is $4.s21.7O which is the
greatest amount ever received in this
county. The fund accrues from the
interest and rentals of state school
lands and il the best evidence that the
state has its money out in good in
vestments. In 1908 the apportionment
was but $3.273.5s and in 1902 1t was
$2.sS3s7. The heavy increase Of loans
of the state funds Is now becoming
apparent and there il little doubt but
that the next apportionment will be
larger than ever.
County Treasurer Hastings has also
received q communication from State
Treasurer Conn In which he says:
Il beg leave to call your attention
