Many were slashed in the arms and

It was through their determination 10

the fourteen fishermen were drowned.
When the little fishing boats sailed in
the crazed emigrants sought TO take
possession Of them. But the crews
saw the danger and took action TO avert

jumped would be thrown into the sea
and that II only patience were used
all would be saved.
Untl dozen OF the little boats had

boats were smashed, and two other

only four of the ships boats got away

Chicago Daily Market Letter.
Furnished by A. M. McDearmott
Commission Co., Office Room 10,
Alexander building.)

Wheat-There were no Liverpool
cables this morning, but the other
foreign markets were unchanged, with
the exception of Buda Pest, which
showed a slight increase. Shows re-
port gave the condition of the win
ter wheat on June / as 500 against
81 last month and SSS a year ago.
de also stated that the acreage of
winter wheat was about 100000 acres
less han a year ago. The market
turned very strong on this report and
advanced very easily. There was a
plenty for sale, however, on the adj
vance by the longs who do not want
to hold their deals ove Monday. Min
neapolis stocks decreased 10000
bushels yesterday and their market
was firm, the cash business was light
and practically no export business
has been done for several days, either
in wheat or -four. We think wheat a
purchase around these prices and
think the crop will sell above this fig
ure for the better part of the year.
Receipts were - ears in Chicago, 63
in Kansas City and 1919 in the north
west against 2S last year.
Corn-All the options were very
strong, July selling above so cents.
Receipts we're fairly liberal and the
estimates wer 700 ears for Monday.
There was no export business. In
fact one New York house wired that
they had cancelled orders for ten
loads. We believe this is a good
time to take profits on long corn and
replace your lines on any breaks.
Snow gives the condition of oats as
$50, against 1913 last year. The ac-
reage for Illinois, Indiana and Mis-
souri, was put at 20. The loss in the
acreage was offset by an increase in
