WHEA THE market was a very
ervou affair today, declines taking
place in the futures early on general
rains in the northwest, but foreign
markets were all higher, and there
was good commission house buying

of long wheat came out on Increasing
receipts here, hedging sales against
larger a~cceptances with 14S cars for
tomorrow, and as well as on some
The modern Miller report was bullisll,
worlds shipments will make a small
showing but the most bullish, feature
was the continuation of large export
sales-65 to 70 loads being reported.
A good deal of evening up took place
with the closing rather soft, but should
further declines develop we would
favor purchases.
CORN-Corn crop reports very
favorable. and eour Iowa advices indi-
cate great Improvement. There was
selling of December and May early on
the fine weather but the September
kind was bid up to 76&c bushel, q
new level and started shorts to COW
ering. Large cash sales were report
ed late and while Strengthening prices,
we still believe that the new futures
should be sold on bulges.
OATS-The crowd were bearish and
sold early with some NAV liquidation
but the strength in the May kind,
partly offset the new arrivals n it
looked as if those who sold early re-
instated long lines.

and no time was lost in unhitching the
and the men getting out of the

square crack at the stacker that It

there was not enough left to cause u
wreck. +,

TO Get MEDAL
FOR HEROISM
LOU Earring OF MONROE COUNTY
WILL GET A CARNEGIE
MEDAL.

Abba, July 17.-(Special)-S. Ben
n1tz, who looks after all the appli-
cations that are made for a Carnegie
medal in connection with cases OF
heroism and where bravery and spirit
have been shown, was here this week
and investigated the case of Lou
Earring, whose friends had called a
heroic act of his to the attention OF
the commission. Mr.. Bennitz 81
pressed himself. after going all over
the matter and questioning both the
rescued by and others, that he would
report the matter favorably to the
commission Such a report means that
a medal or a money consideration
will fall to the Earring boy.
The facts on which tho award will
be made occurred at Hynes, on Decem-
Der 81, 1907. At that time several
boys were on a pond and skating.
Young Earring and another came to-
ward the pond just as the ice gave
way. Earring plunged into the icy
water and after beating down the ice
which hindered his way to one of the
boys, Master Dee Amos, he caught
the boy by the hair and pulled him to
safety and again went into the icy
water in the endeavor to save another
boy who was ~f1oundering in the water.
His efforts in this direction were un'
availing and it was with the greatest
difficulty he got himself to the bank
His clothing had frozen TO his body.
Mr.. Earring makes his home with his
parents at Hynes and is about twenty
years of age.
