CONTINUES 70 DECLINE
PRICE OF MAY WHEAT ON CHI.
cAGo BOARD OF TRADE OFF
SEVEN CENTS MORE.
BELIEVED BOTTOM HAS BEEN REACHED
FINAL HOUR OF TRADING SHOWS
IMPROVEMENT IN DEMAND
FOR THAT OPTION.

Chicago, April Pa double back
somersault was performed by May
wheat during the day. Instead of set
Ting into a Renaissance the option
promptly started with repetition Of
last weeks sensational acrobation.
Some of the first trades showed fall
of 4 cents a bushel, the prices open
ing at SO to SO cents. as against ST.,
the previous close.
After the initial plunge the price
for May showed tendency to rally,
reacting temporarily to 97A cents. If
the selling was from representatives
of John w. Gates it was well dis
guised, the market presenting the ap-
pearance of a general bearish attack
rather than an attempt at further
liquidation Of holdings acquired dur
ing an attempted corner. P. A. Valen-
tine of Armour & Co. was generally
credited with buying considerable
May wheat while the quotations were
between 96 and SO cents To this
was attributed the recovery to 97A
cents. Fresh selling, however, from
outside sources soon pounded the mar
ket down worse than before. 1t Was
not long before the current figures
for May were 931A, a net loss of 6tN.
cents bushel. At 931a the market
showed
Fall Of Nearly Thirty Cents
from the point at which the Gates
party were supposed to be in full con-
troll of the deal some weeks ago.
Before midday another cent was
clipped from the price of May wheat,
sales being made at 921a cents a
bushel. On the slump Armour & Co..
were reported to have bought in as
much as 100000 bushels of the May
option.
During the last hour of trading de-
mand was of an improved character.
The theory that the price of May
wheat had reached about the lowest
point consistent with what are called
legitimate conditions formed the basis
of much of the late demand. A fea-
ture was active demand for the July
option from a house which is credited
with having recently been trading for
Gates. Prices, however, made little
response to the improved demand, the
rally in May being confined to less
than a cent. The market closed
steady, with May off precisely cents,
at SO. Distant deliveries were affect
ed by the slump In May, the closing
price on July being down cents, at
84sz.

that henleforth the records show
ing what allottees have had the
restrictions removed from the allie
nation of their lands should not be
open to the public and that the
names Of such persons should be
given out to no one. He was di-
rected TO inform the Indian agent
of this order also.
The letter states that Chester
Howe. lawyer of Washington D.
G.. had appeared at the Office Of the
commissioner Of Indian affairs and
.represe n ed that he was the attor-
ney for The Deming Investment
Co., Of Oklahoma City and head
quarters at Oswego, Kan. That
they were in the loan and mort
gage business and that he wanted
the names of these allottees so that
his company might send them ad-
vertising matter and thus secure
loans on their allotments which are
subject to mortgage or sale. Mr..
Howeiwas refused. Then followed
the order to Commissioner Bixby
to let no one see the names.
When an allottee gets therestric-
tions removed from his land the GER
ti6cate thereof Is filed and record
ed in the Dawes commission. The

On the presidents hunt there was
more than one thrilling incident that

fight was put up on the first day, when
the president bagged a big brown bear.
That was the day we lost old Spot, my
best dog.
When we first came for the bear the
dog had bayed him on the side OF the
mountain, about halfway up. sent
Al Anderson up the hill so that be
would get in above the bear and drive
him down toward us. A bear will al
ways run down IL you get in above it.
Al began to pelt him with rocks, but
the bear never budged, just turned
around and looked at him. AL kept on
throwing, and the bear began to take 1t
out on the dog We knew that would
not do, so AL quit throwing, and the
bear walked around on the side Of the
mountain and got away. The next
