CHICAGO, June 2.-Wheat for July de-
livery advanced to new high record
mark for the season when it sold today
at 1.2Gh per bushel. gain OF 70 compared
with the previous high mark touched
May % The upturn was due to active
general demand based on an advance or
s4d to 1Ad at Liverpool and to brisk de-
mand for the cash grain here. which Is
now selling at a stiff premium over the
options Offerings in the pit were light
during the early trading. At the opening
prices were nc to %a7sc higher than the
previous close. July being at 1.l9se to
119k. The execution of stop-ioss orders
carried the price up to 1.2Oas during the
first few minutes. From this point prices
reacted a trifie on profit taking.
Corn was active and strong early In
the day, the July delivery displaying espe-
cial firmness owing to small stocks IN
store here. July, which opened at dl15 TO
y, advanced to 72ss.
Enormous receipts-502 cars-tended to
offset the effect Of the strength In the

mand At the opening prices were 5al5c

Railways Fairly Uniform.

In fact the general tendencies of the
railway share list were fairly uniform,
although a number of the so-called special
ties exhibited exceptional but apparently
insignificant strength.
The local traction shares were practi-
cally all heavy. although their particular
course today seemed TO be mainly in
sympathy with that followed by the
market at large.
Yesterdays reports of the listing upon
the Paris bourse of the United States
Steel common shares did not prevent the
steel issue from moving in line with the
general market. although the reports in
question received wider degree OF
credence than they did previously.
With a few exceptions transactions in
tire industrial and miscellaneous stocks
were along the same lines those in the
railway list, with rather marked weak
ness in Amalsamated Copper and the
other metal stocks. American cotton oil
was exceptionally strong.

TEX" Rickard. who has Just returned
here from Boston, denied yesterday that
any secret agreement existed between JEFF

$4,000 purse for the worlds championship
fight
While in conference with JeTries and
johnson before the final articles were
signed" said Rickard. Il told them that
they could divide the purse any way they
desired. and even suggested a 50 per cent
division, as il seemed that the betting odds
would be about even. The fighters dis
cJ ssed the question, but when / told them
that l would insist on the public getting
the full details they dropped it.
IN bet any one 5000 that there is no
agreement between Jeffries and Johnson OF
any kind, excepting to divide the purse 70

Princeton. n. j.. Dec 16-MayOr McClel-
Ian Of New York delivered the second and
concluding part OF his lecture on Present
Day Legislation" before the faculty. stu
dents and guests of the university here to-
night. The first part OF the lecture. under
the Stafford Little lectureship on public
affairs, of which ex-Presldent Cleveland
was formerly the incumbent. was given on
Thursday OF last week
Tonight Mayor Mcclellan first traced the
Influence OF eighteenth century French pO-
htical philosophy, followed by JeffersOnism
and Benthamism. which combined TO form
a creed Of individualism. This he said.
was followed by a strong coIlectivist ten
dency and the growth of paternal legisla-
uon- After showing that OF the state laws
enacted against trusts nearly One-half had
been declared unconstitutional by the
courts, Mayor Mcclellan said:
The extreme OF paternaIism was reached
IN the Hepburn pure food act which sub
tects all foods, drugs and drinks includ-
ing wines liquors and milk, 70 government
analysis, government regulation and gov
ernment inspection. The national govern
ment, IN other words, undertakes through
its power 70 regulate commerce between
some breakfast, an edtable dinner, a sound
glass or champagne and a pure drink or
whskey
Since paternalism became the inspiration
OF governmental action. national. state and
city budgets have grown in a constantly
increasing ratio.
The state and city of New York are
typical of other states and cities In If
teen years the expenditures by the state OF
New York have doubled. and In ten years
the expenditures of the city Of New York
have increased about 30 per cent These
enormous increases in expenditures have
been due almost entirely 10 cOllectivistic
causes
The increased expenditure In the state OF
New York, apart from the ever increasing
salary list, Is due To pateTnal government
projects. such as the new sl00.d.OO10 barge
canal. state "Oads and the like
Besides seeing 10 10 that the citizen Is
law abiding, the city watches over his
morals and mis- health il begins by in
specting and regulating him when he Is
born, and never let's him out of its sight
until he is safely laid in his grave, after
which II continues to inspect the cemetery.
disposition on the part of the public
ginning to show itself There is a rugged.
hard headed. sober common sense in the
American character that does not always
find its best eXempliicatiOn in either the
state legislatures or in Congress. II would
seem from Professor StimsOn's figures that
in the year 1876 the referendum, as ap-
piled to constitutional amendments, was a
conservative force, the people proving them
selves far more conservative than the leg
iSlatures. How the referendum will work
IN matters Of general legislation in the
seven states where il has been adopted
time alone can tell.
